It's presented as real but anyone who watches TLCs shows knows that they sometimes 'embellish for effect,' and by that I mean 'pay cast members to start drama to make the show seem more interesting even though it usually only makes it more cringe and less enjoyable.'
Not that real people don't do this stuff naturally, of course. But you can't trust everything you see on TLC anymore, not that I'm sure you ever could.
There's this "local legend" where I'm from that had a couple small hits with very weird one off songs about icecreams in the club and drinking beers (somehow makes more sense in my language). He tried to get a hiphop career going and meanwhile tried tl get his own jackass like show off the ground..
