Uberstar- The Truth About Reality Tv
Author Vaughn Alaine-Marshall is not an author by training
. In fact, Alaine-Marshall is a chiropractor. He was running a thriving chiropractic business, so why on earth would he leave his business to write about reality TV? Alaine-Marshall left his practice behind for four and a half years in order to focus his energies on writing the compelling new book, Uberstar. Uberstar is a spellbinding novel about the worlds biggest reality TV show. Alaine-Marshall could have written an expose with all the firsthand accounts he had access to, but instead he decided to write a fictional piece to protect the identities of everyone with which he spoke.
Alaine-Marshall had the opportunity to hear the stories of everyone from the hot shot producers behind the scenes to reality TV show contestants on big shows like Indian Idol, American Idol, and X Factor. It all started when Alaine-Marshall received a call from a close family friend. She was a contestant on a major Australian reality TV show, and she begged for him to listen to her story. However, Alaine-Marshall was initially reluctant to hear her out. After all, he was busy running his chiropractic business and didnt have time to hear the saga. However, after listening for a bit, Alaine-Marshall grew shocked and appalled. His friend revealed to him inside information about what really goes on behind the scenes of reality TV shows.
After speaking with his friend, Alaine-Marshall was approached by several other people involved in the reality TV industry. Many of them broke their confidentiality agreements in order to reveal the truth behind reality TV. Alaine-Marshall knew he was onto something. He locked himself up for hours on end in order to put these peoples stories on paper without disruption, putting his chiropractic business on hold so he could focus on his novel.
What Alaine-Marshall learned through all of these interviews and conversations is that reality TV shows are essentially a franchise of nastiness. The bullying, teasing, and taunting that happens on stage is only a small sample of what takes place backstage. Furthermore, the act of bullying as a form of entertainment is very damaging, both emotionally and psychologically. As such, many of the contestants on reality TV shows end up traumatized after their experiences. However, they are so hungry for their fifteen minutes of fame that they do anything possible in order to reach the top. For them, even if reaching the top means insulting their peers and bringing them down in any way possible in the process, they do it willingly.
Alaine-Marshall is well aware that those who are bullied typically have problems such as depression and anxiety. These problems can affect all facets of their lives. Reality TV only serves to make bullying worse because it makes it a form of family entertainment. The judges insult people on stage and publicists search for scandals in order to humiliate contestants. Ultimately, reality TV magnifies the taunting and teasing that takes place on school playgrounds around the world.
Alaine-Marshall realized after speaking to so many people who were involved in the business that it was necessary to get the truth out. As of now, few people realize how damaging reality TV actually is on our society and our children. Children emulate the behavior they see on
reality TV shows , which in turn contributes to an endless, vicious cycle.
Uberstar is a fascinating novel based on truth that is hard to put down. Alaine-Marshall put the perspectives and experiences of everyone he has spoken with into the book, so you come to understand the inner workings of reality TV and the entertainment industry at large. Many powerful people would have prevented this book from coming out if it were in the form of an expose. To avoid such troubles, Alaine-Marshall wrote a novel. As a result, Alaine-Marshall was able to protect peoples identities while getting away with publishing something that could have amounted to a scandal otherwise.
