With that much lead-up and anticipation, the act is sure to be a complete letdown for both parties.

American television producers pride themselves in bursting through reality barriers: They will supply a washed-up rock star with the closest thing to a legally-permitted harem, capture each devastating phase of addiction for viewers’ pleasure, and enlist overweight contestants to starve themselves for a cash prize. Basically, you name a shame-laden activity, and American producers are quick to capitalize on it….which is why it was so surprising to hear today that our home of the free is not responsible for a new reality television show that auctions off the virginity of a few fame-hungry contestants.
Still, though the reality show is being produced for Australian TV, it will shoot in Las Vegas after the Victoria government threatened the filmmaker behind this project, Justin Sisely, with prostitution charges. After all, by casting virgins (each of whom will be paid $20,000, plus 90 percent of their “sale price”) and then auctioning them off to the highest bidder, isn’t Sisely literally pimping out his fame-whoring contestants?

Funny. I'm having trouble finidng any mention of this on Australian news sites.

If it's true? It'll never air in Australia! As our laws and censorship wouldn't allow it and I doubt that American TV would want to support it either.

BS premise to begin. You can NEVER prove she is a virgin anyway. Probably have been used by the entire Oakland Raider's football team and propped up as a virgin.

Buyer beware...

What better way to hang a lantern on the moral and ethical degradation of western culture then with a show like that?
Cripes, I hate us when I think about shows like this.

Well, they can get off their high horse when it comes to values. I'm singularly unimpressed with the way that Islamic terrorists think women ought to be treated.

No, they won't make a reality show based on a grown woman auctioning off her virginity (and yes, I think it's ridiculous but that's her business) - they'll just marry off a fourteen year old to some dude she's never met, and force her into a life of submission, without even the right to vote or drive or show her face in public.

Nice.
