"Warner Bros., the production company behind the series, released a statement to CNNMoney on Monday.
"We have become aware of allegations of misconduct on the set of 'Bachelor in Paradise' in Mexico. We have suspended production and we are conducting a thorough investigation of these allegations. Once the investigation is complete, we will take appropriate responsive action," the statement read."

"Corinne Olympios was so wasted several hours after she and DeMario Jackson hooked up, she could hardly stand.

Witnesses at the Mexican resort tell us 2 hours after her sexual encounter with DeMario ... she was stumbling drunk, eyes closed, slurring badly and wearing her clothes inside out. As one source put it, "she was on a whole other level."

TMZ broke the story, a week ago Sunday Corinne and DeMario were naked in the pool, "rubbing, touching and fingering" and engaging in oral sex."

"One contestant told People on the condition of anonymity what it was like behind the scenes as production in Mexico was being shut down pending the investigation. The contenders were placed on lockdown, separated, and not allowed to speak with one another.

"W e were told to stay in a certain part of the [resort] while they figured out what the hell had happened," the contestant said. "We knew something bad had happened. There was a dark energy that came around the house. You have to understand that we weren't even there a week. The game hadn't even really begun yet."

The alleged incident reportedly occurred on the show's first day of taping."

"Contestant Corinne Olympios has reportedly hired an attorney, blaming the producers of the “Bachelor” spinoff for letting a sexual encounter with fellow cast member DeMario Jackson go too far following a day of drinking, sources close to the reality star tell TMZ.

Olympios and Jackson allegedly engaged in sexual conduct while on the premises of a Mexican resort during the filming of “Bachelor in Paradise” over the weekend. Though Jackson is said to remember the tryst — “rubbing and touching” — Olympios says she cannot remember, claiming her castmates informed her the following day.

While Olympios alleges contestants expressed their concerns for her safety to the crew, production insiders insist the cast did not approach the staff."

"The fourth season of the reality show was underway in Sayulita, Mexico when the production crew allegedly shot a drunken encounter between two cast members, a male and female. From there, the details have conflicted between media outlets -- and has continued changing over the past two days.

TMZ has reported an account of the events from the male cast member in question: He and the woman were allegedly told by producers that "one of the storylines would be the two of them hooking up." He was drinking at a bar when the woman came over and sat in his lap. Things escalated, and there was "intense rubbing" captured by the cameras."

"Los Angeles Times film writer Amy Kaufman was the first reporter to break details of the incident and its aftermath, tweeting that a source called it "soft core *advertiser censored*. They did not have sex. But it was very raunchy."

The following day, Kaufman confirmed, "a producer who witnessed this hook-up did not show up to work." The same producer then filed a "third-party complaint" alleging workplace misconduct."
 
I can't believe they sat there and filmed this, but I guess there is no low to where our society will go.
 
What kind of programme is this? Did the producers get confused and think they were filming *advertiser censored*? Reality tv is reaching the gutter.

"ET chatted with another source close to the Bachelor spinoff on Tuesday, who told us that as far as they know, there is nothing in contestants' contracts regarding the consumption of alcohol, nor is there anything ensuring them that they will be protected if they drank too much, if this happens to be the case with Jackson and Olympios.

"There's a lot of pressure to stand out on the show, to have a big personality and to make a splash," the source explained. "Alcohol helps loosen you up, so people partake. The first night in Paradise is usually pretty crazy because everyone's just getting there and wants to make an impression." http://www.etonline.com/news/219582..._is_what_really_happens_while_filming_mexico/
