Lala's Use of Control and Spotlight
Lala's behavior in manipulating situations, particularly highlighting her custody battle to deflect criticism and gain sympathy, raises questions about authenticity in reality TV. She attempts to control narratives by pressuring others to bring drama to the show, indicating a reliance on manufactured storylines to sustain interest. Additionally, her tendency to use her child as a shield in conflicts comes across as disingenuous, especially when overlooking the impact on others.
