Way less, I think he was a bottom of the totem pole construction worker. The entire premise that he was millionaire royalty was bullshite, but I don't think it was scripted.

You think the women were all in on it too? That kind of defeated the whole purpose of the show.

No I don't think so. They for sure thought he was rich and then the producers through a curveball at them at the end.

What was the fake American idol type one. The singers were terrible. I'm pretty sure Vitamin C was a host. Yes. Vitamin C.

If anyone watched Paradise Hotel - it cannot have been scripted...because the reaction of this idiot was priceless.

He got burned because he had a thing for a chick that didn't give a shite about him...

Dave and Charla...he defended and voted for her the entire show and got her into the finale - and at the end she had an opportunity to split the prize money and she said she wanted to keep it all...and he looked like his nuts shriveled to nothing.
