Jack Osbourne Behind Bars
Jack Osbourne trained as a cop on CBS’s Armed & Famous and is actually being put in real jail for a brand new reality show called Prisoner X according to OK.
Jack Osbourne who is 22 years old was taken from his cell and stip searched in Shelby County Jail, Memphis. Jack Osbourne who obviously fears for his life has asked for a stab vest in Westville Prison, South Africa. It is an amazing step of courage for all the celebrities in this reality show because each and everyone of them has to take a step of faith. It is not an easy task to been thrown into some of the worst prisons in the world.
Daniela Neumann, Virgin1’s director of programming, said: “For the first time ever we will genuinely see these celebrities eat, sleep and shower in the most disgusting prisons in the world.”
The celebrities are used to luxurious lives of clean linen, champagne, expensive food and clean toilets. This reality program will really push the celebrities to the edge and make them face life like they never have before.
Sharon Osbourne must be out of her mind with worry and fear. I know that if it was my little girl I would be worried sick. In fact, I don’t know if I could let her go. However when your children turn into adults you cannot tell them what to do, they have to make their own minds up and leave the parents worrying for their lives. My heart goes out to Sharon and Ozzy Osbourne and I will be praying that everything goes alright and that Jack Osbourne will come back safe and not harmed in any way. I actually think that reality television is pushing its boundaries now.
These prisons are some of the worlds harshest with conditions that are fit for the hardest criminals.
The show called Prisoner X, also stars “I’m a Celebrity . . . Get Me Out of Here” Joe Pasquale and Marc Bannerman, actor Will Mellor, author Toby Young and former Coronation Street actress Debra Stephenson.
MacIntyre who was an investigative journalist and also more commonly known for putting criminals behind bars, experienced living in a horrific, sparse cell usually reserved for those facing the death penalty in Louisiana State Penitentiary.
It is going to be a horrific experience that is going to be televised and shown on a prime time television chanel. It should be an interesting watch, but I personally feel it is taking it too far. Nobody who is innocent should have to experience the conditions that were supposed to be for the world’s worst criminals.
