We grew up watching the glow-ups. The fierce photoshoots. The dramatic speeches about “wanting this more than anyone else.” And of course, the iconic: “We were all rooting for you!”

But what if the real story behind the scenes was far darker than the edit: What if the shows that raised us were quietly training us to tolerate dysfunction? What if what we were watching was abuse and psychological warfare packaged as female empowerment?

The conversation goes beyond reality TV, unpacking how 2000s culture normalized humiliation, toxic authority, and suffering as strength as told through someone who lived it: Lisa D'Amato.

Lisa D’amato is an international model, recording artist, television personality and Forbes inventor and entrepreneur. She first entered our living rooms as a contestant on America’s Next Top Model. She was young. Bold. Different. Unfiltered. And in an industry that rewards compliance, she stood out, making for great TV. What we saw on screen was competition.What we didn’t see were the power dynamics. And as Lisa calls it, Psychological warfare. In recent years, Lisa has been vocal about her experience behind the scenes. Now, we will be able to catch Lisa on the new documentary on E, Dirty Rotten Scandals, premiering March 11th.

So buckle up. You know she has some shit say!
