She literally sold a handful of shampoo hanging from her corner store shack for pennies that she said she broke even with. Do u know how poor the neighborhood must be to be buying shampoo at a handful at a time?
She’s not getting paid though, from what I understand, and Brandan could likely make more just getting a regular job in the states, without all the mental trauma of being on TV.
You are 100% wrong, the foreigners get paid. The only show where they don’t is 90 Day, sometimes HEA IF THEY DONT HAVE WORKING PAPERS YET. If they’re in their own country they get paid, the same way you get paid if you work in your country.
To no one in particular, on ANY show, wherever they’re shooting, the person doing the “acting” only gets paid if they are legal to work in that country. On a temporary basis, sometimes they get temporary work visas. There is no rule about anyone getting paid or not getting paid but for what I’ve just said. And no one gets paid until the end and no one gets someone else’s “share”. It’s pretty cut and dried. Legal? Paid. Not? Won’t.
ok but, who made the comment? I don’t think YT comments are any more or less credible than what we read here, unless it was made by someone in the TLC family.
imo, I think that was the amount the cast was earning at the beginning but it goes up if they progress through other seasons and/or spin-offs. Otherwise, I can’t see very many potential cast members being ok with that.
That’s for the original show, because the partner without a green card is legally not allowed to earn money. But this isn’t the original show - they’re in the Philippines, so I imagine TLC was sending them both money before they were fired for breaking the NDA.
We already knew she was untrustworthy and had no problems exploiting her kids for money. It’s really sad though that he still lets her in to ruin his life some more.
Seriously! OP also said “she even started a cameo for the extra money” it made me so mad. Yeah the “you don’t know poverty until you poop in a river” comment of hers was annoying to say to her man who was homeless. But yet, only bc he had also been impoverished himself. Regardless these people really need money and considering literally every other cast member does stuff for these reasons we should give this couple the biggest of all breaks for doing so. Same if sheila made a cameo I wouldn’t be feeling any sort of way for it. I don’t even feel a certain way when ceasar, Brandon& Julia have it. Like seriously why are people mad by this especially when someone is genuinely impoverished like what the f
I am not mad at them for creating a Cameo for the extra money and it wasn’t said in disdain. I know that it is hard for them to gain money from the store that they made but making a cameo IS opening herself to more bullying and therefore will affect her mental health more. Guess who else is affected? The child AND Brandan.
So?? Why do you think it’s ok to bully her off a platform to make money? Why does it bother you so much? Why did you annoint yourself the boss of how someone makes money. Just don’t follow her if it bothers you so much. Make this make sense.
Did I bully her off of a platform??? All I’m saying is that if she wants to get better, try minimising interactions with the bullies? She did that already by turning off comments on her ig. Do you even read what I said? I said I don’t even interact with her other than liking her posts. And it’s my opinion since she’s complaining about people bullying her, there’s a way to minimise that.
I could never be on a reality show. I’m studying to be an actress and that’s a bit different because you’re a character with a whole plot that doesn’t even apply to you. Being on reality tv as yourself showing all your flaws, insecurities and who you truly are as a person for people to judge. That’s terrifying.
Agreed. You have to be incredibly sure in yourself to deal with the criticism on reality TV. It’s definitely not for everyone and this was a Molotov cocktail for her depression
Oh man me too. Someone could say something not even about my looks like “she can’t even keep a plant alive.” and I would cry for days because I try SO hard they just keep dying and my boyfriend tells me to stop water my pits of dirt because they aren’t alive and no they won’t come back. 😭😭😭
Hahahahaha yeah okay because I would remember to. LOLOLOL
I’m a single mom with a stressful corporate career as an executive assistant and spend all my brain power during the day keeping the office running I went on sick leave for 3 weeks and the office pretty much collapsed without me.
When I get home if I’m not working over time I have just enough energy to shower, make dinner, feed the animals/family and then die in bed by 9:00 because I am EXHAUSTEDDDDDD watering plants is the least of my worries in a day. They get watered when/if I remember.
Man, I could never be on TV! I’m too sensitive.
She definitely shouldn’t be either.
Agree. This is really not that bad… maybe there’s worse out there. But also, I think she was depressed and unhappy even before this
She just needs to stay off of social media really
But how will she sell her necklaces???
Yes. She should accept that she cannot change some things then take power over what she CAN control.
I would deep dive and read every single comment about me and end up with soul shattering depression and self loathing.
Nope. No thanks. Not happening. Ever.
I trialed myself to not care what anyone thinks of me. Took a lot of psilocybin and just let people make fun of me. Now I’m immune. Go ahead, try me.
This is why I don’t have social media or have any type of inbox notifications on Reddit. I don’t need people to tell me more things to dislike about myself than I already do.
ADHD self hatred for the win!
Lol same
Unfortunately, they think it’s the only way to get good money 🤷🏻♀️
Explain a good way for her to get money since this is not the only option
Did u not see how she was living? TV is a godsend for someone who pulls ox during the day and dodges geckos at night.
That is true although do they make enough to make a difference? I heard the foreigners don’t get paid at all and the Americans not a whole lot.
$5 would make a difference.

Your thinking about 90 day fiance.
In the other way they are in the foreigner’s home country so it’s legal to pay them and they do.
To no one in particular, on ANY show, wherever they’re shooting, the person doing the “acting” only gets paid if they are legal to work in that country. On a temporary basis, sometimes they get temporary work visas. There is no rule about anyone getting paid or not getting paid but for what I’ve just said.

Ya i heard they’re not even paid til the episodes air on tv
The attorneys, paper work, visas and sponsors are probably going to be sticking points when you have no money.
I read on TLC utube channel the Americans get 1k- 1.5k an episode.
ok but, who made the comment? I don’t think YT comments are any more or less credible than what we read here, unless it was made by someone in the TLC family.
imo, I think that was the amount the cast was earning at the beginning but it goes up if they progress through other seasons and/or spin-offs. Otherwise, I can’t see very many potential cast members being ok with that.
What the Americans gain will be enough for necessities for few months probably. But not for their debt
That’s for the original show, because the partner without a green card is legally not allowed to earn money. But this isn’t the original show - they’re in the Philippines, so I imagine TLC was sending them both money before they were fired for breaking the NDA.
Blows my mind how Brandan’s mom abandoned him early in his life then reappeared to ruin his TLC opportunity.
We already knew she was untrustworthy and had no problems exploiting her kids for money. It’s really sad though that he still lets her in to ruin his life some more.
god i hate that fucking bitch
What happened with her? I haven’t been able to get caught up and only saw a short commercial clip of her showing up

The child and Brandon will benefit from having basic necessities.
👏
Being miserable and crying does not make anyone want to talk etc with her.she needs anti depressants etc. They have really messed up
Everybody in that family has some problems. I feel sorry for the babies.

It literally is the only way for her to get good money.
It is but unfortunately the 90DF money will be stopped since there’s a rumour of them getting fired.
Same here, I would cry myself to sleep every day.
She’s just manipulating.
Agree and agree. Her mental health isn’t good; I don’t think it’s right to continue to bully someone when it’s obvious they can’t handle it.

Google the plants you have and follow the watering and fertilizer schedule for them. It’s really not rocket science.
