gibby13 asked: Are they handed a script as to what to say during the show and given money to go where they want? is MTV involved in some of the controversies that go on during the show ?
MTV isn’t involved in the controversies. The girls get paid $5,000 an episode and I believe the boys of the show get paid $2,000 or $3,000. (Ehem why do you think Chelsea’s boo came groveling back). The restaurants they go to are probably free for the girls considering the free promotion that the places get, other than that I really don’t believe that there are scripts or money given for day to day things. Although the voiceovers that you hear are definitely not written by the girls, people who edit the show and the footage probably put together little re-caps to have the girls read. That’s why they always sound so robotic!
