Doublethink
Aesthete & Curmudgeon
I apologise for calling 'em C *NTS, but even I who believes there is so much mendacity in Reality TV cannot for a second believe that these bastards are as totally fraudulent as this.
Allow me to bring you to the attention of this article…

Former Biggest Loser contestant Andrew 'Cosi' Costello reveals the truth about the weight loss show
Cosi states "The only thing that really disappoints me about the Biggest Loser is the length of time between the weigh-ins. Have you ever wondered how the contestants manage to lose a staggering 12 kilos in a single week? We don't. In my series a weekly weigh-in was NEVER filmed after just one week of working out. In fact the longest gap from one weigh-in to the next was three and a half weeks. That's 25 days between weigh-ins, not seven. That "week" I lost more than nine kilos. I had to stand on the scales and was asked to say the line, "wow, it's a great result, I've worked really hard this week". The producers made sure that we never gave this secret away, because if we did, it created a nightmare for them in the editing suite. The shortest gap from weigh-in to weigh-in during our series was 16 days.
So they got weighed roughly somewhere between every 2 1/2 to 3 1/2 weeks, yet we were shown weekly weigh in and contestants were evicted on absolutely fake numbers….no wonder there was so much crying when it came to evictions
Arseholes, the producers of TBL are all arseholes!
Mind you these arseholes work for the same company that makes Big Brother and if the weigh in numbers are completely faked with rigged evictions, what chance do you think Big Brother isn't?
I bet they just let the phone ring, collect the cash, never look at the numbers and decide by pulling hairs from the arses, the shortest goes and this week it's xxxxx!
