The mother of Jojo Bojanowski is already causing quite a stir.  In a clip from the show, Khalood Bojanowski, is shown describing the kind of women she doesn’t want for her son.  Shockingly, she goes on a racist tirade as if she’s calling out the grocery list!

In response to the controversy, Ryan said: “There were points where we just stopped everything and had to jump into the field and onto the set to calm everyone down. And to be frank with you, there are portions of this show that were highly controversial in terms of tone and intensity that we debated internally here to whether we should put them on the air…. Well, as producers, we certainly don’t want boring people.  I have to admit that at some points during this shoot, I was taken aback by the way (Bojanowski) said certain things.”

Is this new reality show all bad, then?  No, says Ryan.  “There are plenty of funny moments along the way,” he said. “There’s plenty of intense moments along the way. But it truly is – and it sounds corny to say it – but it truly is a loud love story.”
