: You knew it was too good to be true. MediaTakeOut.com has learned that Maury's talk show is caught in its very own paternity scandal. According to tabloid reports, guests on his popular Paternity Test episodes are frequently acting.
Last year, a guest named Lashana appeared on Mary's show looking to find the father of her son Jeremiah. But Lashana is now claiming her appearance was a complete fraud.
According to Lashana, she contacted Maury's producers and asked to give three men paternity tests, but they all declined. The show's producers then reportedly convinced Lashana to find any other man she knew and bring him on the show.
When Lashana found a man Anthony, she told producers that he wasn't the father of her son. But the producers didn't seem to mind. They just drafted up a script for Lashana and Anthony to recite on stage.
According to Lashana's mother, the entire appearance was scripted. She was quoted as saying, "Everything was scripted. Anthony had to call Lashana a whore and swear he wasn't the father. Lashana had to cry and I had to be mad at Anthony ... and when Maury opened the DNA envelope and reveal that Anthony wasn't the father, he had to jump around and do cartwheels."
I think that is the most ridiculous thing ever. First off, I would never humiliate myself nor nobody else by getting on the phone and calling some people I don't know from a can of paint, or never even seen before and tell them I don't know who the father of my child is, and ask them to help me find out who he is.....reason being is because that's my responsibility to know who I'm sleeping with and if I put myself in that predictament then that's on me. I don't think a woman should belittle herself like that anyway to sleep around with different men (UNPROTECTED)and then get pregnant and don't have a clue who the father is...that's not what real women treat themselves.
Now far as these fake ass talk shows that comes on, yeah I use to watch them when my kids was babies and yes they use to be interesting, but now my kids are 14 & 15 yrs. old I realize I use to be wasting my time watching that ish' because I seen one episode of Maury about the same ish'. This girl brought about 10 guys on the show to find out if either one of them was the father and neither one was, and she still had more guys to bring on the show but after I seen that I lost interest because that was just too much for me to see a young woman put herself in a situation like that to humiliate herself like that in front of millions of people just to make a few dollars.
Inclosing while everybody trying to get their 15 min. of fame and a check for $100.00 dollars (cause that's all they get paid)what about the childrens rep they messing up. And some of those females actually bring their kids on the show and have their pic put on the screen, or some will let them bring the kids out on stage. I think Maury and his guest are sick indivduals.
im glad that [EXPLETIVE] is fake i knew my black people were not that crazy and dumb to act like they do on that show whooo but i still will watch they show like i do when im bored lol cause "u are not the father" girl:"omg noooooooo:runs all around lookin for the exit, or falls to the ground:" lmao damn that show
Who gives a damm, it still makes for GREAT comedy!
She's old, she's hip, she's loud, she's obnoxious, she knows your business, she'll tell your business and then she'll cuss your azz out.. she's Miss Pearl

African American news and entertainment.
It may be just seen as entertainment but these shows depict black people in the worst sterotypical way. I knew someone who went on Maury. It was a show about opposites attract. He said he was offered $250 to appear but he claimed they raised it to $500 if he took his shirt off. He's morbidly obese and I guess the show though it would be "entertaining". He being fat and extremly overweight was supposed to be with this skinny white girl, but neither of them had ever met before the show. All these so called talk shows and reality shows are fake and black people who appear on them come off looking like fools.
Some of the shows are real. And the sad thing is they get back to the hood and flaunt it like its okay that they STILL don't know who the father is and that they were on the show. *smh* sooo f'ing stupid. This chick (she was 19 mind you) had the nerve to come back like "and what I don't give a f**ck cuz I'm the mommy and the daddy" damnnnn shame.
Will still watch when I'm home from work though ;)
Duh the show is fake but funny as hell! I remember one show were the woman said she is a lesbian now cuz her "baby daddy" turned her to it and the lesbian lover looked just like her! The guy was saying to Maury I thought they were lesbians not brothers!!! OMG that was the funniest one i've seen on Maury!
it's all for fun...its the equivalent to reading these fabricated MTO stories on a daily...I think in the back of everyones mind, they know that this [EXPLETIVE] is exaggerated, but man while ur watching it, its funny as hell. especially cheaters, OMG, i love when they start fighting!!
And not all of them are completely fake, but of course these people get prepped on how to react, i.e., the dancing and running off of the stage, the claiming "i'm a million % sure hes the daddy"...I'm watching Maury right now!!!
I know for sure that one story was real, a friend of mine came on the show earlier this year to tell his girlfriend that his was sleeping with her best-friend and that he might be the father of her best-friend's son. He was not he father after all and the friends kinda made he look stupid, matter of fact, they kept calling him trash to his face and kept walking it out all across the stage...my friend is in a wheelchair.
I always thought it was fake when a girl would bring 10 different guys on the show. If you are a hoe and had one night stands how do you know the first and last name and address of at least 10 one night stands? How did these ‘one night stands’ know enough about you to tell your business on national TV and call you a hoe? This junk is fake.
Maury: In the case of 5 yr old Jambalaya Jenkins.... you are NOT the father.
Girl: AWWWWWAWWWWWHAW haw haw haw hawawwww NOOOO oooh ohh hohohohoh .. noooooooo awwwwwhhhhhahahahaa ... As she runs offstage into the maze that is backstage with cameras following her ...
The alleged father does the C- walk on sage and throws a few finger signs up as they go to commercial break!!!
Girl: How could this happen??? I wa- was so sure, I ain't done nothin' to nobody/
Alleged father, encouraged backstage: Aww Girl, it's a-ight, come on na, we can still kick-it doe
Girl: I'm so sorry, I swear, I thought you was, cause I loved you..
10 Months later, same couple:
Baby mama: I don't caaarr what he say, he the daddy- he the daddy- I know fo so dis time- (getting out of seat to go the screen) look at the nose, hell naw, look at the fo-head..
Alledged baby daddy repeat offender: La Qreashaiana ain't nothin' but a hoe' and here today to prove that she sucked my di*k
@ kymelle,
Maury: Tyrone when it comes to 1 month old Ty'Qreashaian, you are NOT the father!
Crowd goes wild, "baby daddy" jumps up and down and starts dancing, and La Qreashaiana runs off the stage with her face in her hands and collapses to the floor in the hallway!
Maury: You know we're here for you! We'll help you find your babys father!
Like we didn't know it was staged MTO do you see how befor the dude comes out he is on a little clip reading (all retarded) about how much he hate the girl. It is funny though. But at the same time it's real talk cuz hoodrats in the world really don't be knowing who they baby father is and it be between like 15 dudes. Hoes will be around forever. what what we do if there were no jump offs? The world would be a boring place.
i knew some of them had to be fake--especially the bitch who had been on there like 15 times & everytime they told her some n*gga wasnt the father, she bolted like a scared rabbit the same exact way over & over & over again. bitch took off like she had jets in her ass. & they showed clips from all the shows where she did it exactly the same. it was stupid. anyway thats my show tho! that shyt is funny.
Maury: do you know who else may be the baby's dad?
Qreashaiana: No, it wasn't really nobody 'cept him.
Maury: come on Qreashaiana think, who else could be...
Qreashaiana: oh yeah I forgot, I that one night after a par-dy
Maury: (stupid look) do you have a name
Qreashaina: Big rick, lil john, Kadema, Kaman, Redman, Kool G Rap, bobby brown, neo, Jay-Z, DMX Usher, P. Diddy, Shaquille
Maury: Wait a minute...
Maury jumps out of seat, snatches off Greashaina's wig- And i'll be damned!!!!
IT'S SUPERHEAD!!!!
I was just telling my wife how I recognized this one chick from Hell Date on that Parental Control Show and how one of I Love New York's men was also on Hell Date. ALL THESE reality shows are bogus. Besides you have to know what's going on if you go on the show. I still loves me a ignant' Black chick running to the green room after Maury tells her that Bakim ain't her baby's daddy.
Well the episode wit' ole gurl from NEWARK was REAL! Her dumb azz took ole boy who's quite infamous around da way (Irvine Turner) on the show & now the dvd is on sale at White Castle. She been going around town claiming he was the father even during her pregnancy. Anywho, when the envelope was opened of course he wasn't. He then proceeded to b walk across the stage. They still fuk wit her til this day. Even the children yell out "HE IS NOT THE FATHER!" each and everytime she walks out her front door. Maybe some are scripted, but this one was definitely real. My cousin took me around there just to see it for myself... and I'm saddened to say that we laughed and laughed @ the kiddie boos yellin' that phrase out. It's like they all stop what they're doing and stare at her, then one by one they start yellin the same thing.
@KYMELLE AND GIRLYGIRL...
LMAO...LOVE THE SCRIPT... YALL ARE GOING TO BE FEATURED AS WRITERS ON THE SHOW SINCE EVERYONE ELSE IS ON STRIKE. MAKE SURE TO PUT IN THE SCRIPT THAT SHE HAS SLEPT WITH OVER 100 MEN AND ONLY TESTING 3 AS THE POSSIBLE FATHER.
I was on a talk show back in the day (Gordon Elliott) and my cousin and I were lying our asses off about that [EXPLETIVE] so we could get her and her husband a free trip for their honeymoon. And yes they did pay us.
i can beleive that some of them are fake--they cant all be real--but i dont beleive they all are. how can they all be fake when some of the guys turn out to be the REAL FATHERS? when they been on 10 times & shyt, thats entertainment & Maury tryna get his clown on but some of them people are on there 4 real. its like "Cheaters" some of them stories are real & some are fake. they mix them up so you cant tell which is which.
zebrahead- You give American's too much credit. Some sell their souls for a six pack of beer and puff of weed.
Sweetluxury - The ones who are the baby daddy'S knew they were the baby daddy when they came on the show. The only time I believe it is when it's two guys and one is the father.
And the rest, including myself, all Maury does is baby daddy shoes so somebody is watching. And since of most of can write scripts or say we don't like the watch show, that means we done watched.
YOU ARE NOT THE FATHER!!

i know of 2 guys on the show who was on from the chicagoland area, and a they were both SCARED AS HELL they were the daddy wayyyyy before Fosho'Ho called! Yes thats her name Fosho'Ho (she a ho- for sure)in case u aint get!!!!!and to the tramps getting sprayed who dont know what man is leaving what in you leave the lights on ,do it in the day light ! there are enuff skee' in the world for maury to at least get 25'mo years doing this i m going to call and ask can i take his place when he retire at least i know it will be steady income.
I hope they got paid for that "acting job" aka coonatics. But on another note even if this stuff is scripted there are real women out there that have many sexual partners and end up pregnant with no clue of who the father is. And what about those that never admit that they don't know and just play eeny meeny miney mo and pick an unsuspecting daddy? I know 2 such women.
People will do ANYTHING for a free hotel room, a free trip and free food. Maury's no better than Jerry Spring who has faked a ton of shows. Why people continue to watch it amazes me.
Years ago, Maury was a reputable journalist but not anymore. For money, ratings and desperation to keep his show on the air, he has lost his credibility.
A former producer came out with some serious allegations about that show last year--haven't heard another peep about that.
Who really cares? It is all comedy to me. Hell, if you are stupid enough to tell America that you are a worthless whore that was too stupid to prevent a pregnancy, risked getting AIDS and now have a fatherless child, you are the fool! I don't feel sorry for any of those females! They should have wrapped it up or kept their legs closed!
This is all some bullshit, I faithfully watch Maury daily and I know that it's real. I had a friend of mine go on there, nothing was scripted. This is all real. Yeah I know people come on there and act a complete fool, but in reality people are living these types of lives out there.Yeah, you get paid for coming on the show but thats about it. Now what yall need to get on is Jerry Springer thats whats a fruad. Half of yall on here need to go on the maury show yourself to find out who's your daddy and the father of your own kids. Maury I love you and you will always have my support. Behind every successful person lies a pack of haters.Get off the man jock and let him do his thing. Ain't no stopping him now, so haters fall back.
No one has brought up the issue of child abuse. MoPo has underage children on his show with obesity problems parading around shirtless or in their underwear while being gasped at by a live audience. The children are not of an age of consent to agree to this. It is degrading and exploitative. This is real, this is what's really happening. Both the consenting parents and show's producer's should be charged.
It's not like they lied, he wasn't the dad... people don't understand how much paternity tests are, and if someone makes the mistake of trusting someone and signing the birth certificate at birth, the law says it's yours whether it is or isn't. My fiance is the father of 5 children, 2 mine and 3 to his previous wife. He wanted to think his wife was faithful but found she was with other men when she was pregnant with the last two. Since he signed the birth certificates, the law says he's screwed, that he should have known better and as punishment he should pay almost $700 a piece for each paternity test in order to stop paying child support, now how is that fair? People go on the show because they DON'T have to pay that and can get it over with, the only payment they have to give is a small amount of public embarrassment, it's not like EVERYONE watches the show...
