They filmed her when she was crying on the floor after she had to make the call to the boyfriend.
They pressured her to make the call to the boyfriend because...
after being assaulted, she wanted to go home and they wouldn't let her.
And so that's when they said, okay, you can call the boyfriend, but we're going to film it, right?
Every part of this situation was filmed so they could use it for a storyline.
And it's a situation that really shouldn't have happened, right?
Like, production is there the entire time.
They see Shandy drinking more and more and more, and they didn't step in to intervene.
For me, when Ken Mock in the Netflix docuseries, when he says, we treated A&TM like it was a documentary.
That's so offensive.
And I'm like, you're gaslighting all of us because we know you did not.
Like, we know producers stirred the pot.
They created situations.
They picked the girls they wanted to win and gave them more favorable conditions or challenges or whatever, right?
So to use the sort of excuse that like, oh, it was a documentary, it was really a slap in the face.
And Tyra, for me, I think her answer was like, well, production wasn't really my territory.
So I can't really speak to that.
Furthermore, like you pointed out, Tyra comes to the house to sort of have this shamey conversation with Shandi about, quote, cheating.
Where she's like, oh yeah, my man cheated on me once.
Have any of you guys ever cheated?
