Exiled Teen Learns That Men Are Lazy The World Over
Last night's episode of Exiled featured singer Cee-Lo and his daughter Sierra, a pampered princess from Atlanta who also wants to make it in showbiz, but would rather coast on her father's connections than make her own way. She was sent to live in a village on the South Pacific island of Vanuatu, where she had to do garden work, fish, catch chickens, and prepare food. Sierra was told immediately after arriving that women do all the work, and the men just sit around. When she was asked to go catch fish to feed the chief of the village, she decided she had enough, and sat down, prompting her host to say she was acting "like a baby." But from what we can tell, she was actually acting like a man! Clip above. -

Exiled Teen Says Stupid Things To Her Host Family
This week on Exiled, Meleny, a 20-year-old from Long Island and the proud owner of Juicy Couture velour tracksuits in every color of the rainbow, was sent to live in the mountains of Peru. When she got there and got a look at the sub-standard (her standards, mind you) living conditions, she cried and informed her host that she didn't want to do any work. She was later offered a fried guinea pig as a gift and the next morning, threw it all up (to be honest, when I visited Peru in March, it was a meal of guinea pig that finally loosened my bowels after an 8-day stretch of being stopped up.) Sick of all her whining, her host ended up telling her that she says "stupid things." Clip above. -

Exiled Teen's Bikini Leads To Threat Of A Beating
On last night's episode of Exiled, Marissa, the girl who got two cars for her 16th birthday (her dad owns a dealership) was shipped off to live in a rural village in India. Marissa was sent away not because she's an intolerable brat, but because she has a failure-to-thrive condition, brought on by her parents' incessant babying of her. Marissa seemed sweeter than most of the kids seen so far on Exiled, and even she was pissed off that her parents hadn't taught her basic survival skills, like how to sweep a floor or boil water. While trying to make conversation with her host about what she does for fun in America, Marissa made the grave mistake of pulling out her bikini (she didn't even try it on) and the host got offended at the indecency of the outfit and told her that she would be beaten for wearing it.

Exiled: A "Divo's" Good Time Turns Around
Last night's episode of Exiled featured the first "spoiled teen" boy to be shipped off in order to learn a lesson. If you don't remember, Bjorn is the kid who, during his episode of My Super Sweet 16, referred to himself as a "divo" (that's his male version of "diva"). He asked for a diamond bracelet for his birthday, threw a tantrum, and then for some reason (Boones, maybe?), ralphed at his party. For this episode, he was sent to Morocco, to pick up camel dung with his hands, and search for fossils in caves. Bjorn's reaction to his host family's home is kind of priceless (he steps out of his car holding a Chanel handbag). What he didn't know at the time was that this was probably the most luxurious accommodation a host family on this show has provided thus far, as the house had window panes and running water. -

Exiled: Teen Whines Her Way Into A Ticket To The Arctic Circle
On last night's Exiled, the absolutely worst Super Sweet 16 brat thus far, Chelsi, was shipped off to the most punishing locale weather wise thus far. It's one thing to shovel elephant dung and carry jugs of water in warm climates like those in Thailand and Africa. It's totally different to be in danger of getting frostbite while freezing your ass off in the frozen tundra of the Arctic Circle. Chelsi, an 18-year-old girl who doesn't do her own laundry, her own hair, or know how to pack her own suitcase, was sent to live in a teepee and herd reindeer with a Norwegian family. And while she certainly bitched and moaned a bunch once she was in the cold, some of her more ridiculous behavior happened before she even left home. Clip above. -

Rock Of Love's Heather Schools Us On The Business Of Reality TV
Heather Chadwell is perhaps best known as the 30-something stripper on Rock of Love, then later as the most recent player eliminated on I Love Money. When she's not filming reality shows, she earns extra cash "hosting" at bars around the country. VH1 followed Heather around during one of these engagements in NYC, and she was super candid about how to have a "career" in reality television, how it is indeed a business, and how she amps it up when being filmed.Heather Steps Out [VH1]

Exiled Spoiler Alert: Beverly Hills Princess Doesn't Like The Smell Of Elephant Shit
Remember Ava from My Super Sweet 16? She's the half-Jewish, half-Persian Beverly Hills girl who said "Ew" when her fathered suggested he get her a pre-owned Range Rover for her birthday instead of a brand new one. She's also most memorable for traveling all the way to Paris to shop for her party dress, and tried on a hideous, breast-hugging Cavalli gown that for some reason, is tattooed on my brain. (Photo of that after the jump.) Last night, Ava was one of the subjects of Exiled, and she was shipped off to "a remote part of Thailand" to live with a family who makes their money by selling elephant dung. One of Ava's jobs was to shovel up and bag the poop, and she complained about it so much that she ended up getting in a fight with her host, and then refused to finish the job. Clip above. More » -

American Brat Is Bratty To Host Family On MTV's Exiled
MTV's Exiled takes the spoiled brats whose birthday parties (and tantrums) were featured on My Super Sweet 16, and ships them off to wholly different parts of the world where they have to live among people who actually work for a living. On last night's premiere episode, prissy Amanda, now 18, was sent to Kenya, where she lived in a hut among the Masai four miles from the nearest water source. She bitched about it the entire time. In the clip above, Amanda watches as a cow is slaughtered in her honor (warning: it's graphic), and pretty much just goes into a soliloquy of complaint and disgust. Later, she shares some of her possessions from home — body spray, candy, Beyoncé — with her 18-year-old host Josephine. When Amanda shows her a fashion magazine, Josephine looks at (an airbrushed) photo of a model and asks in all earnestness if the woman depicted is a real person. Clip above. -

MTV Deports Sweet 16 Brats For New Show Exiled
MTV has a new reality series in the works that might just rival our love for The Paper. Remember all those over-privileged spoiled brats from My Super Sweet 16? Well, MTV has enlisted kids from past episodes to star in Exiled. The hook? In each episode, each one of the kids is sent to a different third world country to live with a family and "learn" the meaning of hard work and the meaninglessness of material possessions . The comments of the foreign families are priceless. Clip above.
