Ok! Im truly disgusted now. I was totally "had" while watching Monday night's show and fell for Megan sweet, nerdy, vibe. I went on her myspace as I've previously mentioned and looked at her questionnaire that she took on her page. What I have gathered is, her goal as she states is to find greater success in the entertainment industry. She basically inferred that she smokes weed as well. Not such a lil goody-two shoes...hmmm...

thats probably why the removed all the girls from the cast list.

my sister went to school with megan albertus. (its a typo on the website) and she really is what she seems. my sister said said "i would be literally be shocked if she worked at hooters." the obsessive cleaning/motherly habits have always been apparent. and to account for the IMDB profile, my sister heard she was trying to break into acting.
i don't know about the other girls, but that is the true megan!

First of all, I would like to thank all who tuned in to watch me bare my soul on "Momma's Boys," regardless of your opinion of me or the show. What I thought was going to be an innocuous little love adventure/free vacation, has proven to be so much more. Perhaps because this is my foray into the world of reality television and my thick skin is still developing, I feel compelled to address detractors and clear up a few key issues.

First, despite some of the theories being bandied about the internet, I was not part of some sinister plot to fool viewers! I was never anyone but myself on the program. I wish I could claim to be infinitely cooler in person, but I'm not. I simply gave NBC pure, unadulterated Megan footage and what you saw was what the network wanted you to. There are hours of footage that show my goofy side and dirty sense of humor, but it's on a cutting-room floor somewhere. That being said, those traits are as much a genuine part of me as my cleaning compulsion and inexperience with the fellas. No one is ever as one-dimensional as they are portrayed on television. With programs such as these, the final product is a hybrid of what actually transpired and some clever trickery in the editing room to maximize viewing potential. Most intelligent people grasp this concept and take it for what it is- entertainment!

When I divulged that I am a virgin and have never had someone that would qualify as a boyfriend I was absolutely telling the truth! Why do people find it so difficult to believe? I guess I should be flattered by such doubt, but I am mostly perplexed. By such logic, just because a woman can look attractive with the help of makeup she can't possibly have held onto her V-card for so long? Why should beauty and purity be mutually exclusive?

My chaste status isn't so much a result of never being approached, I have been. Unfortunately, it's mainly been by guys only interested in getting in my pants- not my heart. There was one special fellow I had very intense feelings for, but they were not reciprocated. This was my first foray into love and it was painful. Since then, I haven't really put myself on the market. I've also never viewed a relationship as an integral part of a fulfilled existence. My mom has done everything on her own quite successfully, since my father passed away, and it left me with the impression that a man can be somewhat superfluous. As I mature though, I am finding that dating and relating to people does have its merits.

As for my makeover moment, it simply sounded fun! I am quite lazy when it comes to my day-to-day beauty routine and never altered this because of the cameras, but I resent the implication that I was actively trying to make myself look unattractive (those glasses are real and I freakin' love them). I'm just a casual girl and I think it was because of this fact that some of the other gals deemed me as in need of a makeover (which really was done in the sweetest way by some truly terrific women). It isn't so much that I don't know how to achieve that look, it's that I don't really care to (save for very special occasions). I want a guy to love me for what's in my brain, not my push-up bra! That being said, once in awhile it's fun to play dress up and even more fun to (at least try) show that beauty and brains are not always mutually exclusive!

As for my modeling days, those ended when I was a child. It was tremendous fun to wear clothes we could never afford, but it was never something I took seriously or had any desire to pursue. I took my brief stint at Hooters even less seriously! My mom was the one who handed me the application, saying it seemed like a fun job. Turns out it kinda was, but my tips were as small as my tits. I became much more adept at conversing with complete strangers and used my mad hula-hooping/simultaneous beer-pouring skills to break the ice. It was the beginning of my emergence from my shell and it has been an ongoing process ever since. In fact, it was part of the reason I agreed to participate in the program.

To those who call me an actress, you're really giving me too much credit (thanks though)! I would only consider myself aspiring at this point. I'm an awkward, nervous sort of gal who has never quite been comfortable in her own skin- that's why I love to lose myself in roles! This, however, was not one of them and I can say that with 100% honesty. In fact, I had great trepidation about revealing me as a person. After reading some hurtful comments posted here, I guess I was right to worry.

In regards to the elimination, Carina (the other girl, and a very sweet one) did deserve to stay more. She found Michael to be adorable and I lacked any connection whatsoever (I would have picked any girl in the house over him). Jojo was a great kid, but far too young for me. Rob was the guy I would have stuck around for, but he is family-oriented and I have no burning desire to reproduce. Trust me, with my neuroses, I'd be doing any potential offspring a favor! Furthermore, I would never lead a man on in real life just to see what I could get out of the situation and the presence of a camera could never alter that belief of mine. Of course I wanted to stay, it was tremendous fun living in a mansion compared to the single room apartment I currently occupy. That being said, I am an honest person and could not bring myself to stay under false pretense.

Finally and most importantly- some may doubt the motivation behind my participation, but don't ever doubt the veracity of my commitment to helping animals! This crushes me more than any critique of my appearance or personality quirks ever could. I'm currently the proud pet parent of four rescue cats (one with special needs) and have devoted the majority of my meager income to dealing with their health issues. In addition, I have worked and volunteered for several animal shelters since the age of 17 and currently do so regularly at the Lange Animal Rescue Foundation. In fact, you're all invited to come walk dogs with me!

Sorry to have written a novel, but I had to get that (along with the push-up bra) off my chest!

Most Sincerly,
Megan Albertus

Well you know how those "introverted bookworm nerds" are. They all work at Hooters. LOL

Hope she gets some work from her performance though.

I wasn't fooled for a second though. These "reality" shows are all fake anyway.

Does ANYBODY think these girls are really looking to marry one of these guys?

REALLY?

I have a bridge to sell you.
