JUST TO CLARIFY: Jamie's dad started Samsonite Luggage Company.

Oh my gosh this show is sooooooooooo ridiculous. Although I am fascinated by the way "the other half" lives, these girls are in a nut shell RIDICULOUS.!!!!

They can shop ANYWHERE for all the best, and that's what they chose for PROM DRESSES

(i guess daddy's sense of style doesn't rub off on everyone!!!

)

And did ya'll see the preview for next week. Ally talkin about 3 important people told her something really big, 1 being someone she knows the others are 2 psychics. once again i say RIDICULOUS!!!

Well, I agree with earlier posts. This is NOT as addictive as Newlyweds. The two positive things I noticed:

1. They were talking to one of the moms and the kids seemed to have a good realtionship with her, so they probably were TOTALLY raised by nannies.

2. They wanted people to share the cost of the limo. At a young age they've realized that people may try to take advantage of them b/c of their money, and they're not letting it happen anymore.

On a catty note..........Some of the clothes they bought just demonstrate that having a pile of money still doesn't mean you'll have good taste.

Did anyone watch HBO's Born Rich? This film was done by a great great (I think) grandson of the Johnson and Johnson company did a story on several rich kids.

On one hand I would love not to be able to get up and go to work and travel all around the world at a drop of a dime.
But on another hand their lives seemed a little boring (ya, I said it). The Johnson and Johnson kid asked his dad what he should do after graduating from college and his dad told him that he can stay in his studies or even start a rare book collection. WTH??

Yes and with all that money some of them don't have a clue. One kid said he is scared that if he does not wear the proper shoes he thinks he will get cut out of his parents or grandparents will.

I watched Born Rich. I found it to be very intriguing. The only person on the documentary who I did not like was Luke. I have more comments to add later

Born Rich was halfway decent. I really dug ole boy who was saying something or other about going to the tailor, etc. Obviously I was looking at him and not listening to a word coming out of his mouth.

I did hear him say something about "when he is getting p___y, he is thinking of reading a book, and while he is reading a book, he is thinking of p___y."

Luke was obnoxious and the "I own Grand Central" seemed really "nice." Like he really would rather be doing something else besides just being rich.

I think rish girls need a beatdown. They bother me. Trump's daughter and the other blonde chick talked about shopping all day, but the guys talked about the sheer priviledge of being rich.

I noticed it's all about class vs. money, per se. There are a sh_tload of filthy rich black folks but to do a show. The closest they will get is Lionel Richie's friggin' daughter and her skinny little friend.

Enough. The Johnson and Johnson guys dad seemed real low key, too. We glamorize this sh_t. Money ain't nothing new but overconsumption is...fairly. If these folks had to manage the money, they'd be broke.

I know that this is the new millenium, but I had a problem with the Jamie girl on MTV cursing and smoking on camera. She's still in high school and it seems like she would just know better than to behave that way. I also was not feeling her on prom night talking about how she wanted to have sex with this guy that she had been dating for 3 weeks!!

Then she tried to play it off saying that she didn't want to lose her virginity on prom night

If I were her parents, I'd be very ashamed.

I actually think that her parents couldn't be more proud. They think that the way that their children act is great. If they didn't, they would spent more time trying to make their children more grounded. The kids know academic success and they know the power of charity (tax deductable donations), but they can't seem to deal with real life issues . . . but I guess they don't have to if they don't want to because they are living in a rather sad bubble.

Jamie's mother acted like it was "cute" or something that her daughter wanted to lose it. I don't think it's good for MTV to show teens drinking, smoking, and swearing. It's one thing to show college kids, but high schoolers?

I agree. She acted as if her mother wasn't even in the room. My mom and I are close but not where we talked about me wanting to lose my virginity. Her mom didn't help the situation by saying that she thought she might have lost hers in the back of a car.

I only saw part of one of the episodes of "Rich Girls", so forgive me for not knowing who exactly made this comment.
She calls up her "boyfriend" and was talking to him about sex, them she says something about him not being ready to "go there" yet and she was angry.
One minute they say how cliche' it is to have sex after prom then how they want it so bad.

Ok....Ladies.....I am pretty sure that you would agree with me. Even if I did want sex so bad, I would not put it out there and on National TV at that. Because my parents would beat the crap out of me for not only being stupid, but what we do often reflects onto our families.

Or maybe that's just in my house?

Jaime really annoyed me with how many times she said "our limo". It drove me crazy! To be a senior in high school, she looks pretty old.

Mz Destiny · #13 11-05-2003, 12:07 AM

I am watching this for the first time right now. I cannot believe ole boy Mike is up here crying cuz he can't spend the night...lol

Mark betta dance!

This is quite comical....

RedefinedDiva · #14 11-05-2003, 12:12 AM

Ok, I am watching another episode. I was too lazy to change the channel after "The Real World" went off.

I only have one question: WHAT'S THE FREAKIN' PLOT???

The show is just "random." This is a waste of airtime. I would rather watch "Doggy Fizzle Televizzle" (so you KNOW this show has GOT to be horrible!)

You know, when I saw the close-ups of her, I was disappointed. She should have soft, smooth skin and it is crinkly like an adult's would be . . . have you ever heard the saying "Black don't crack?" -- this gal is on her way to playing the next leatherface in Texas Chainsaw Massacre -- she needs to stop frowning so much.
