Duh! Did anyone think it wasn’t?? According to this article, the contestants and their parents wear earpieces through which producers feed them every single line. Also, the show isn’t even taped in the contestant’s actual house.

“Made” Scouts For Its New Season

Saturday, July 21st, 2007

Bryce Fallon (pictured above with cameraman), a student at Silver Lake High School in Massachusetts, was recently selected as a candidate for an episode of “Made.” As you all surely known, “Made” takes teenagers with dreams and works with them to make the dream a reality. Bryce Fallon’s dream was to become a ballroom dancer, so MTV sent out a partial film crew to test the waters. The main purpose of this audition of sorts was to collect video so that producers could decide whether or not to press ahead with Bryce’s episode.

It all started Wednesday night, according to Fallon. “The guy who was going to film me, Ritesh Gupta, came over. He explained what was going to go on and the shots he would need for the night,” Fallon said. “He shot me and my mom eating dinner and just doing our normal routine. We did have some shots he had to get in, such as me talking to my mom about my goal, me dancing the way I regularly do, me attempting to ballroom dance with my mom. He did some interview questions with my mom as well as me, which wrapped up the evening. All three of us we’re tired, but satisfied.”
