She signed every contract, got an addendum to one she disagreed with. She owns the rights to all of her music. Knew out right that travel was not covered. Was paid her SAG rate once she was accepted into the show. And is upset at Fielder for "tricking" her even though she told every contestant it was fake during taping.

If she feels like she wasn't properly compensated or treated, she needs to be upset with her manager and the studio execs. Nathan Fielder is lampooning the industry, not it's actors and crew. She's not the butt of the joke, the studio is. She's just part of the vehicle in which the joke is told.

It's hard to get mad at Nathan.

It feels like if she had a legal leg to stand on she wouldn't need to rush to the media for sympathy.

How is it hard to get mad at Fielder? I don't see how this isn't a huge dick move.

All of these shows where you recruit people under false pretenses about what kind of show they're going to be on are extremely gross, and have been since the invention of reality TV.
