Desperate Attention Whores

DAW is a new term I learned from reading reality tv message boards, and I can’t think of a better way to describe Trichelle, Omarosa, and Allison. Apparently it doesn’t take much these days to get your own E! True Hollywood Story. They did one on “the bad girls of reality tv”, and here’s what I learned:

Trichelle from the Real World and Surreal Life did drugs everyday while she was in high school and had an eating disorder as well as a drinking problem. Gee, couldn’t figure that out from watching her on Real World Las Vegas. Or the Surreal Life. I think Trichelle is the epitome of DAW.
Omarosa grew up in a drug infested neighborhood with regular shootouts and enjoyed trying to dominate people’s attention with her “outspoken behavior”. Imagine that.
Allison Irwin was a slut. I recognized her from a former season of the Amazing Race, but apparently before she was ever on TAR she was the annoying slutty girl on Big Brother 4 (do people seriously watch that show?) who got permission from her boyfriend to “do whatever it takes” to win the show. Then they competed on TAR together and broke up after losing the race. Can anyone say dysfunctional?
