because most people don't remember the season. Being on TV was a cool, once in a lifetime experience. Unfortunately, once the show aired I had no desire for it to ever play again.
    They depicted my family and I completely wrong, and the worst part? My voice overs were pretty much all lies! I would say 90% of the stuff they MADE me say was a lie. It took 5 hours to record voice overs because I fought every little bit of it. All they would say was “We can't change it now because everything is already timed with the episode.” That made sense to me, but they should have run it by me before making everything official.
    One of the things I had to lie about was my dad being active duty. He has been retired from the Army ever since I was 10 or 11 years old. He does still work over seas, but as a security contractor. He now works for a very important, and top secret company. Another thing I had to say was “I've never been outside of our tiny town”. That is a complete lie. Think about it, a military family, never moving, living an hour and a half away from the closest Army base. Yeah, right. Those were the two main ones that bothered me.
    A week before we flew out to film the reunion, Nathan and I had a big fight and broke up. He ended up not coming with me to New York. That p!ssed off MTV so they completely redid my entire show, to make him look horrible. Sure, he did say some mean things, but he didn't intend for them to come out that way. When he said something like, “If it weren't for the baby, I wouldn't be here” he meant that if I wouldn't have gotten pregnant he would have moved to Texas with his friend in search of work (which was brought up later in the show). Yes, he was still immature and partied, but not nearly as often as they made it seem.
    Oh! The part where I was at the Halloween Party and it showed me texting Nathan, that was also a lie. I was either texting my mom or checking my Facebook because I was bored, I didn't text him at all the night. One way I know they made it up, I spell everything out when texting and I don't use the term “wtf”. He was at home that whole night, and I knew he wasn't coming to the party. He told me days before that he was going to hang out at home and I was fine with it.
    When they came out to film the catch up show, we knew that we had to watch what we said because they're good at twisting our words. We were much happier with that segment.
    Needless to say, I will NEVER work with MTV again.

     

Before she became a notorious reality TV star, Farrah Abraham was a lot “like Lindsay Lohan in Mean Girls ,” her half-sister, Ashley Danielson remembers. “Popular, but not mean or cruel.” A Barbizon model and boy-crazy cheerleader at Thomas Jefferson High School in Council Bluffs, Iowa, she was “very quiet and reserved,” says former best friend and classmate Tyler Cooksey. “Nothing like you see now.”
    Farrah and her sister were raised in an upper-middle class, two-parent household - unlike many of the other MTV moms. “We went on a lot of big family vacations - road trips, Disneyland, etc.,” Ashley tells us. “We had a lot of fun growing up and were very blessed. We always had our family supporting us in the audience at school plays, recitals, contests, science fairs, etc.” But Farrah's childhood story is no fairy tale.
    Her mother, Debra Danielson, met future husband Michael Abraham in 1987. Debra - just 31 at the time - was fresh off of a divorce and struggling to raise six month-old Ashley on her own. Debra, who worked in software sales, and Michael, a manager for AT&T, hit it off and married about a year-and-a-half later. And so began a long, often strange relationship, that even today, Ashley admits she doesn't really understand.
    “I think we both knew their relationship was a wreck and they are two people that really had no business getting married to each other in the first place,” she says. “My mom was a good mom when we were growing up. She
