Almost all of these *adult* contestants had watched the show and knew what to expect as far as how intense the trainers were, challenges/temptations, etc... and they still signed up because they "wanted to be on the show so badly." And they also could have left willingly at any time, and they stayed. But still somehow found a way to paint themselves as victims. Joelle is *still* absolutely insufferable. Zero self awareness or accountability. Every contestant was handed a life-changing opportunity to do and accomplish hard things - and knew it would be grueling and sometimes embarrassing. But somehow instead of gratitude, so many of them can only focus on the negative. Like they were owed something. Reality TV - in general - is embarrassing. And that's sort of the point. Whether is housewives or dating shows, you're giving up something (often their dignity) to get something. Stop complaining about it. You knew. Even Tracey, when asked at the end if she'd go back on the show, she couldn't definitively answer - insinuating that possibly yes she would - even after all her complaining.
