Press Release Summary: Parents fed up with their super spoilt and rich teenagers, have opted to exile them to remote parts of the world to experience life with indigenous tribes. The parents are hoping these spoiled brats, ex stars of the 'My Super Sweet 16' virtual reality TV show, will begin to grow up and finally take responsibility for themselves.
Press Release Body: Eight teenagers who have starred on 'My Super Sweet 16\' will experience what it's like to live with an indigenous tribe, in some far-off corner of the globe. Finally fed up with the spoilt, extravagant and brattitude behavior of the most outrageous divas ever, the parents have joined together to exile their rebellious kids.
'My Super Sweet 16', a virtual reality TV program, takes you on the roller coaster ride, in a behind the scenes look at the dramas of kids as they prepare the \'Party to end all Parties\'.
The show reveals jealous siblings, stressed parents, school rivals and above all the atrocious behavior of spoiled rich kids. The teens\' methods are extreme and extravagant, as they endeavor to ensure the milestone of their 16th birthday, is commemorated as the ultimate celebration of all celebrations.
For the new season, MTV is launching \'My Super Sweet 16 Exiled\'.
· Bjorn, sent to the deserts of Moroco · Marissa, to the hills of India · Melany, to the high altitudes of Peru · Chelsi, to the frozen tundra of Norway · Ava, to the jungles of Thailand · Amanda, to the wilds of Kenya · Sierra, to the bush of Vanuatu.
Growing up as the daughter of famous hip-hop and soul musical star, Cee-Lo, has taught Sierra how to be the ultra Prima Dona. This was clearly revealed at her legendary Sweet 15 birthday party.
Three years later, Sierra is more of a diva than ever before. Her parents want to show Sierra that everything won\'t be handed to her on a silver platter all her life. They agreed to have her exiled to a remote volcanic tropical island of Vanuatu, in the South Pacific.
There she\'ll learn that it\'s not \"who you know\", but \"who you are\", that will earn respect in the bush of Vanuatu. Sierra will find out what it is like to eat, live and sleep the way the villager teenagers have lived for generations.
Having walked for many hours to reach the village, Sierra will find there is no electric light switch to turn on after dark, just the glow of the firelight. No hot and cold running water for a shower. If Sierra is lucky she may have a pipe overhead that gives cold water. Or it may be a quick dip in the river, fully clothed, that becomes a daily shower.
Food won\'t be purchased from a shop. Sierra will have to walk, with the other ladies, out to the village garden for daily supplies. Wood will have to be gathered for the fire, in order to cook the meals. The pig that has been chosen to produce the highly prized curled tusks, (a form of currency in Vanuatu), will have to be hand fed.
Sierra will learn how cut and prepare the pandanus leaves and weave the coveted ceremonial mats, another form of currency. She will sleep on a mat on the coral or earthen floor. If she is given the luxury of a bed, it will be made of split bamboo cut in half, with no mattress. The smoke from the fire in the middle of the room will keep the mosquitoes at bay.
Food will be eaten off carved wooden plates and there may be wooden utensils provided. Otherwise, fingers will be put to good use. Fresh coconut juice will replace Sierra\'s daily coffee intake. In the evening the elders of the village will pass on the ancient traditions and customs through stories, sand drawings, songs and dance.
Sierra may be drawn into playing games organized for the children, where they challenge the spirits of the night. Sierra will come to understand the value of custom medicine made from the local plants, as the small first aid clinic, which has been supplied by one of the donor-aid groups, is miles away.
There is no doubt that Sierra will be thoroughly challenged by her Vanuatu experience. Hopefully the friendliness and openness of the Ni-Vanuatu people will more than compensate for the strangeness of her surroundings.
Sierra's life will never be the same again. The teenagers in the village may never have the opportunity for a formal education, like Sierra, but they have many things they can teach Sierra.
