It's inyanya

only a very foolish person would think that winning a reality TV show is a secret to success.

look at the BBB contestants, how would anyone think that being in a house while being videotaped 24hrs could turn you into a success? that is not only a stupid thought but also a very dangerous one. look back in history and understand that reality TV is just that. it will give any winner their 5 mins of fame and, because the majority aint got any skills whatsoever, they will rightfully disappear from the limelight.

i wont even dwell on the "being rich" through reality TV, as it is an insult to common sense!

Gulder Ultimate Search and Project Fame tops my likes for Reality Tv shows.
But why the halt on GUS? I miss the show
