Moms Making Money



Amber Portwood mugshot, hitting Gary video below


MTV’s Teen Mom reality star Amber Portwood has been arrested and is in jail in Indiana.


She has been charged with three felonies after hitting Gary Shirley, her child’s father, during an episode of Teen Mom.

Recently Amber Portwood told the National Enquirer that MTV actually paid her to hit Gary Shirley.


From the National Enquirer:


But Amber insists the violence was all a ruse and that show execs gave her an extra $1,000 to “get physical” with her ex during filming because they “wanted more drama,” says an insider.

“Amber knows she needs a good defense, and reality show producers are known to stage scenes, so she thinks it’s believable.

“She says that the producers were concerned because they don’t get much drama from the other moms.

“They told her that she and Gary were the most popular couple on the show and that they would pay her extra to provoke a fight. Amber says Gary didn’t know about it because they wanted a ’spontaneous’ reaction from him.”


Amber Portwood has attacked Gary Shirley three separate times and MTV, whether they told her to do it or not, should be partially held responsible.


It’s disgusting what has become of so many reality shows. Hitting, attacking, bullying, and making people’s lives hell seems to bring up ratings, but at what cost? The really sad thing in this instance is that a child is involved. MTV may not have paid Amber Portwood to hit Gary, but even if they didn’t, they filmed it happening and aired the episode – all for ratings and profit. They reward her for the bad behavior and give her a paycheck for the “drama” they crave so badly. But that money will be gone soon (especially now that she could be fined $10,000 for her charges) and what’s left? A child who will one day see this footage which will definitely be damaging to her.


Congrats, MTV, after Jersey Shore I didn’t think you could sink any lower, but it looks like you have. It’s a shame considering the ground-breaking, edgy, rock n’ roll channel it used to be. Now it’s simply the Jerry Springer of networks.


Amber Portwood is facing 3-years in prison and may be fined upwards of $10,000. I hope that $1000 was worth it.
