Dang, It’s hard to believe that Lisa, Left Eye, Lopez has been gone for 11 years now.

For you youngstaz out there who may not know her, she was apart the greatest female hip/hop & r&b trio there ever was, TLC.

Their sophmore album CrazySexyCool went certified diamond with 23 million copies sold world wide, and made them the first female group to earn that status.

Left Eye, T-Boz, and Chilli’s  empowering messages to women through their music defined a generation, and continues to be timelessly relevant.

reminiscing……..

Ya know, CrazySexyCool was the first CD I brought back in 1994 from Wal Mart, and I wore that CD OUT!

OUUUUUUUUUUU on the TLC Tip!

Reality Juice:Breaking Amish: Good vs. Evil : (full episode)

 

The shenanigans continue, but it’s still entertaining.

The girls visit a NYC sex museum, Kate goes on her modeling test shoot, Abe furthers his plans to “put a ring on it”, and Rebecca continues to be a hater because she’s not 21 and can’t drink.

Jeremiah becomes more and more annoying as it’s transparent that he’s been off the “farm” for a while.

Kate scores a private room by playing crazy… you go girl!  It’s hard to tell if she’s actually bipolar or she just a great actress.

Abe’s sounds like a senior citizen… ever time he speaks I’m just like.. You are way too young to sound so AARP.

AnyWho check out the full episode if you missed it.

 

Reality Juice: Breaking Amish: Eps 3 New Beginnings (full episode)

In the third episode of Breaking Amish the crew delves even deeper into the culture of the big city.

Rebecca reveals that she had all teeth pulled at 19 18th century style, ouch. She visits the dentist for a new pair of choppers which will cost over $3,000 that she doesn’t have. The story was sad, just sad.

Sabrina hits the streets to find her Puerto Rican heritage in Queens New York. She applies for a waitressing job at a restaurant and the owners, who  happen to be Puerto Rican (wink) take Sabrina under her wing, and whisk her away shopping for some cloths that have a lil more spice.

Kate is Bipolar, and needs help.  That’s all I have to say about her.

Abe and Rebecca go out on their date, and their chemistry is natural (wink).

So I’ve come to a decision about all the buzz revolving around how authentic the show is. We can conclude that TLC has  stretched some truths in an obvious way. With that said I’m still in, and interested in the show. Put down ya forks and let me explain.

I just see Breaking Amish through different eyes, I see it now as a simulated documentary if  you will. The topic is interesting, the people are interesting, the evolving chemistry within’ the group is interesting. It’s like an Amish Real World you know?

I have erased the scandal a-brewin’ on the internet from my memory, and I am proceeding with the series because I am intrigued on how they will develop the characters, and what are they going to do with Joseph’s Jethro ass. He is the only one that annoys me.

The Impromptu convo with a newly married muslim couple on the stoop was a bit much…. Come on TLC, can you  please make your staging less obvious?

Reality Juice: Breaking Amish: Eps 3 Breaking All the Rules (full episode)

 

'Reality' TV? TLC's show Breaking Amish has come under fire for its false claims about its characters' pasts

 

Episode 3 was titled appropriately. Breaking all of the rules is exactly what they where doing. All of the group ditch their puritan diggs for some new city clothes.  Kate bears the minimal in a swim suit shoot for a modeling agency. Abe and Rebecca finally decide to go out on a date.

Hold the breaks  ya’ll………

There maybe some shenanigans in play with Breaking Amish. Since the show has aired,  some truths about the cast has been found out via Facebook (it’s a gift and a curse I tell ya!).

Below is a picture of Rebecca and Abe, and yes, that is a baby in the middle, yes, reportedly their baby! So that means they’ve been way beyond a first date already!

Secret: A photograph on Facebook apparently shows two more cast members, Rebecca and Abe, with their baby - even though they 'meet for the first time' on the show

Yez, AND mr honest Abe has a record! See said mugshot! According to law enforcement records Abe was arrested in 2008 for being DRUNK in public, not very WWJD.

Jeremiah curses like a sailor, so I was suspicious of him being Amish at all. Reports have surfaced that Jermiah has been livin’ “english” for 14 years.

 

Wild: Pictures also show Jeremiah, left, surrounded by friends swigging from beer cans

Sabrina, a Mennonite was married in 2009, and some Facebook photos show her before the show lookin’ not so Mennonite.  Girl, I’m just as shocked as you are. I know that reality tv is partially a crated reality, but not to this degree!

Sabrina

Kate entered a Best Smile contest in 2010 on exploretalent.com, which is some years before she claimed to have left the Amish community. So Kate knows how to use the internet, but doesn’t know how to work an elevator as shown on episode 2?  HHHHHHHHHMMMMMMM…..

The fact that Breaking Amish may not be as authentic as I thought it was kinda ruins the show for me :( Now I have to put it in an embellished “Real World” category, which will keep me watching. I do like the interactions of the personalities, but the playing dumb like they haven’t been out the gate before may get on my nerves.

AnyWho, watch episode 3 below.

What do you think? Do you think TLC stretched tooo far, or is this just typical reality TV?

Reality Juice: Breaking Amish: Eps 2: What Have We Gotten Ourselves Into? (full episode)

 

Breaking Amish

On the second episode Breaking Amish the gang gets to New York City and take it all in.

As the Amish and one Mennonite all come together for the first time they waste no time to size each other up.

Breaking AmishWe quickly see that clicks, and cattiness are not just relative to the “English” as the group quickly show their true colors. Abe identifies the women he’s seen in the city as “skanks” (somebodies been watching Jersey Shore).  Jermiah wants to get his party on, is on pu##y-watch, and it looks like he’s going to be the Situation of this situation. Jeremiah is hilarious, and he has the brightest personality in the bunch.

The room where the three girls are staying only has two beds. Kate is open to the idea of sharing a bed, and Rebecca has a mini cow, and immediately makes preparations to get another bed into the hotel room. Rebecca and Sabrina get to sleep in nice beds, and Kate gets a fold out in the corner (that was messed up). From the looks of things, Rebecca is probably going to be the queen b of the group. She got kind of irritating. Though being the youngest of the group, Rebecca acts like a senior citizen.

Now for the buzz of Rebecca and her not having teeth. What looked like a scene from mean girls, Sabrina and Kate wake up Breaking Amishin the wee hours of the morning to go investigate Rebecca’s false teeth. They joke, poke and prod at her denchers that she keeps in her covering. They didn’t get why she didn’t have teeth at such a young age, but I supposed they may address that later.

Rebecca and Abe are going to smush. They already have this pseudo-relational dynamic going on.

 

That was sad to see, and it wasn’t exactly WWJD. Rebecca hasn’t been the most welcoming, and is a ‘hater’ because she isn’t 21 and can’t drink, but what Kate and Sabrina did was a bit bullyish.

This show is VERY interesting. Taking Amish and Mennonite people and filminig them as they take a bite out of the “big apple” is genius tv!
