Post-show[edit]

One of the contestants, Kandice (Kandi) Hutchinson, died in a car crash shortly after the end of production. Out of respect to her family, the producers edited Hutchinson's scenes to remove some of her more outrageous behavior. The second episode of the series was dedicated to her memory.^[5]^[6]

On August 4, 2010, Vikki posted on her Myspace blog that she and Trevor had split up.^[7]
