Tinsley Mortimer’s show High Society is already facing scandal. One of Tinsley’s friends in the show, Jules Kirby, says she got a bad edit and is made to look racist, fattist and a host of other things. She wants a retraction.

Tinsley hasn’t said much about her show, which didn’t debut to very good numbers last week anyway. Maybe that’s why the scandal hype started? From Cinema Blend:

“I am sorry if you were offended. The show is scripted, and we are given lines and characters. My grandmother is married to a Jew . . . Everything was cut and pasted to make it look like I was a stupid bitch, and I regret that they do not do a better job of saying it is a docusoap, not a reality show.”

During the episode that aired, Kirby’s interview included the following quote:

“My friends do tend not to be homosexuals, fat or Jewish people, and black guys. And I only like white guys. I use the N-word sometimes, but I really think it should be ok to say. My dream is to work for the United Nations.”

Is this another case of poor little rich girl? Hard to say…I guess we’ll have to watch more of the show!

Is Tinsley Mortimer the new Paris?
