Just last night I covered the season 7 finale of Fox's So You Think You Can Dance and was lucky enough to talk to the top three contestants right after the show. These young dancers are so talented, grounded and gracious. And they work their butts off just hoping they can become employed as a working dancer. And what does that get you? Long hours and low pay!
Then you have Snookie, stumbling around the beach getting arrested in the middle of the day for public drunkenness! Now I 100% watch the Jersey Shore and think the cast is a total riot! But when you look at these shows side by side, you have to admit something just isn't right!As much as I love entertainment and especially reality TV, I can't help but get upset with my industry when I read that Snookie and the cast of MTV's Jersey Shore stand to make a whopping $30,000 per episode!
