‘Real Friends of WeHo’ star slams his own show as ‘fake’

ADVERTISEMENT

The “Real Friends of WeHo” are “fake friends,” says Dorion Renaud, one of the six gay stars of MTV’s new reality drama set to premiere at 9 p.m. Jan. 20.

Renaud took to his Instagram story to bash the show, saying the friendships that form the basis of the program are totally fraudulent.

“Real Friends” is an unofficial knockoff of the “Real Housewives” series set in West Hollywood. The cast includes Todrick Hall and Brad Goreski among other successful entertainment industry figures.

MTV describes the show as an “unfiltered and honest look at a select group of friends living, loving and pursuing their passions in the West Hollywood community.”

“I don’t know these people,” Renaud wrote on Twitter. Nor does he live in West Hollywood.

Maybe MTV, the producers and actors need to remember the famous Milli Vanilli group

Notice they got the right mix for diversity, because no one hangs out with only people just like themselves these days. If our group isn’t balanced we dare not even go out!

Except where is the Asian? Gotta get an Asian or expect to be boycotted and picketed!

I’m as shocked to learn about this as I was to learn that Christopher Reeve was actually using wires to fly in “Superman.”

Why am NOT surprised that MTV did ANOTHER “Fake” show to show their desperation to be relevant! Anybody that watches it is duped to believe that WeHo operates the way they fake-fully display all of the antics.Viewers Beware! Good for Dorion to stand for the truth!

EXACTLTY! “Reality” does not have hundred of support people! Make up artist. Costume styliar. Script supervisors. Directors, asst. directors, and a slew of others. The Genre is dead! Move on!
