Christina Pagliarolo, the teen who had agreed to participate in the segment about overweight teens, is suing the ?Rachael Ray? show because she had to reportedly hike in the mountains and exercise on a StairMaster all the while being screamed at and being humiliated.

According to TMZ?s report, during the exercises, the overweight teen was being yelled at for not being able to perform better. While on the StairMaster, the trainer also reportedly cranked up the speed so high that the teen fell off the machine.

?Christina says she was a mess after training ... suffering serious injuries including messed up legs.?

Despite falling of the StairMaster, the teen says that the trainer yelled at her for falling off and that she ended up not only with physical injuries but also emotional injuries including humiliation and anxiety.

In response to the allegation by the teen, a representative for the ?Rachael Ray? show told TMZ that ?We haven't received this purported lawsuit but if it does materialize we will defend ourselves against it vigorously and fully expect to prevail."

I really don't have any sympathy. Most reality TV shows operate in the same way, so she should have known what she was getting herself into. It doesn't sound like her injuries are even real when they're described as "including messed up legs" - what's that even supposed to mean? It seems like she went in looking for a quick fix without realising that reality shows are designed to exploit people for cheap entertainment.

Why I bet it took 5 cheeseburgers and an extra large fry to console her. :p

Rachael Ray also needs to lose a little bit weight herself too. Maybe they need to put her thru their training show :)

Yep. It's complete dreck, and audiences gorge themselves on it until they're bursting.
