Bridalplasty: The latest low in humanity

Just when you thought television couldn’t get any worse *ahem Jersey Shore*, they throw this in your face (and then suggest a full facelift) It's Bridalplasty a new hit American reality show.

If you haven’t watched it yet, don’t, really. Your mind will turn to mush. I have now lost all faith in my television...

Basics: twelve brides-to-be compete to win a dream holiday. Sounds like your average easy to digest yet tasteless evening programme. They live together without their beloved Fiancés of whom they can’t see until the end of the programme. On their wonderful, magnificent journey of self discovery and friendship (yes I’m being highly sarcastic) they also compete to win plastic surgery procedures off their wish list. I was like seriously, SERIOUSLY. When you think of wish lists for brides to be out pops stainless steel cutlery, ergonomically correct kettles, John Lewis Wine glasses, Swarovskiencrusted toasters at the most please!

It’s extremely creepy. Each scene has a woman with a bandage on her face, someone in pain, an argument and most noticeable low self esteem and self worth. Then some surgeon draws on their naked drooping bits then cut scene to immense surgery and them happy smiling brides-to-be because she just sucked fat out of her ass and implanted it to get ‘Scarlett Johansson lips’. This just has fail written all over it.In black marker, right next to ‘cut here’ on her thigh. As soon as they started getting past the most common procedures i.e. Nose Jobs, Boob jobs, Liposuction Botox they had to find more, no bit was missed.

Gum reductions? How the hell does that work! Ear pinning; SHE DIDNT EVEN HAVE EARS! sigh What makes it worse is that they are not sweet, shy people who want to fix their crooked teeth/slight facial deformity (if it was it would still be terrible, more so actually); they are complete fakes and Bridezillas. If someone was to tell them that, they would just: call their surgeon (on speed dial of course!), reshape their face, get some hair extensions, nail extensions (look like claws), a fresh dose of clown-like make up and go, WHOS A BRIDZILLA NOW! This kind of contradicts what I just called you stupid but hey, if you’re that shallow, you probably don’t have a brain.

When doing the ‘Lie Detector test’ as one of their challanges;

Jennessa: I’m really gonna hurt AJ’s (her fiancé) feelings by saying that but I need to win this!

Yeah, I don’t think you’re going to have a Fiancé at the end of this! Actually, will any of their partners stay with them? If I fell in love with one person: their looks, personality, and they Frankenstein’d themselves because they are that vain, would you really want to be with them? I couldn’t watch anymore so I’m sorry its short and sweet, it was that bad.

(Pictures from my phone just to prove I did sit through this crap!)

I remember hearing about this, can't believe it's actually going on the air!!

Also, their fiancés probably wont even recognise them at the end anyway, serves the 'Bridezilla' right!

What kind of a name is 'Jenessa'? Are her parents dyslexic?!

Seriously though, it's another extention of The Swan, which is equally sick and twisted. Humanity is indeed doomed.
