From Love is Blind to Love Island, we love to hate reality TV. And there’s no shortage of shows to binge on. But all streaming platforms are now overrun with new shows so it can be easy to get overwhelmed. 

Before Netflix ruled the world, VH1 and MTV was a treasure chest of unfiltered reality shows that produced the icons we have grown to love today. Flavor of Love gave us the legend that is Tiffany Pollard aka New York, whose reputation still lives on over a decade later as a staple figure in the world of memes. 

Also, a quote of hers was literally used as the intro to a Beyoncé track.

Whilst Pollard’s messiness is unparalleled—she isn’t alone, if you’re sitting at home like the rest of us, spend your time wisely and revisit reality TV’s messiest shows.
