I’m guessing Courtney Stodden really did get that reality television deal with VH1, because the cable network decided to choose her as one of their 40 Winners of 2011. I’m not sure what the contest was, but if I had to venture a guess? Either “51-year-old dick eating competition” or “most illegal fake titties in pop culture.” Or it could have been “Twitter account that sounds most like Dr. Seuss trying his hand at dirty talk.” Anyone of those would be entirely believable. RadarOnline reports:

A source exclusively tells RadarOnline that Courtney has been selected as one of VH1’s 40 Winners of 2011 and the 17-year-old bombshell is thrilled. Tying the knot at sixteen with her parent’s permission in May, Courtney is open with every detail of her life, from the fact that her breasts are 100% real, to the TMI rundown of her wedding night, to the intimate, and somewhat bizarre, Tweets she writes.

So basically, VH1 looked at this girl who married a fifty-one-year old washed up character actor who was on Lost for a few episodes for fame and money, and said “yes, this chick has it all figured out.” And then they gave her an award for vindicating every pedophile who ever existed. If that’s the case, we should probably keep them away from Penn State’s football program, otherwise they might just start firing off trophies out of a gun into a stadium crowd like they were t-shirts.

Remember when 17-year-old child bride / famewhore Courtney Stodden announced that she was getting her own reality TV show, because apparently publicly having sex with older men when you’re a teen opens a lot of doors these days? Well, in case you were wondering who would be dumb enough to stick a child prostitute on television, we finally have our answer: VH1. RadarOnline (of course) reports:

“I had so much fun at the meeting with VH1 and I can’t wait to meet with MTV people too so my reality show can really get going!” Courtney said. Her momager, Krista said her daughter really enjoyed telling the execs about the show pitch. “Courtney had fun at the meeting,” Krista told RadarOnline exclusively. “Anything she does is always filled with laughter.”

I think Courtney’s mom might be confusing “laughter” with “51-year-old cock”, but I guess that’s why I’m not a failure as a mother. Anyway, part of me is just looking at this and going “what the shit VH1?” But then I remember that VH1 had to take Megan Wants A Millionaire off the air after one of the contestants hacked apart their girlfriend, and they also ran a show about the Hogans, a family of incestuous hillbillies who nearly murdered someone with a car. So actually this makes perfect sense!
