I do hate to admit that reality shows are one of my guilty pleasures.

Rock of Love with Bret Michaels is one of my favorites although I don’t say that with pride. So when I heard that George Clooney and girlfriend Sarah Larson watched it as well I was a little surprised.

Sarah told Harper’s Bazaar, “We caught ourselves rooting for someone or getting frustrated. And we were like, ‘This is sad.’”

Larson was once on a reality show herself, NBC’s Fear Factor. She says that if George would have been a reality star when she met him he wouldn’t have had a shot. (Duh.)

“If George had been on a reality show, I don’t think I’d have talked to him. It would have been like, ‘That’s nice.’ But after a little consideration she adds, “I don’t know. He still wants to date me, and I ate a scorpion.”
