"Teen Mom OG" star Simon Saran revealed the pregnancy bonus for the franchise stars is true. In a series of tweets against the show's executive producer Morgan J. Freeman, Saran revealed that "Teen Mom OG" stars are being paid to have more babies.
A number of people rallied behind Saran after he made a statement on Twitter about the controversy involving the show, the producers, and MTV. It all started when Freeman slammed President Donald Trump for signing the Tax bill into law. The television executive then tweeted, "I'm embarrassed to be an American. #MAGA #TrumpTaxScam #DreamActNow."
Saran then found an opportunity to criticize Freeman. Saran replied to Freeman's tweet with, "Embarrased? You take advantage of innocent kids and expose them. Make millions off of them and dictate their life. Give them bonuses to get pregnet (pregnant) and marry men for money. You are what is wrong with this country. #TEENMOMOG." Freeman nor MTV has not responded to Saran's reply about the pregnancy bonus.
A number of netizens also shot tirades against Freeman for the revelation made by Saran. One Twitter user even urged others to boycott MTV amid the issue. There are some people who applauded Saran for his statement and showed their support.
Most of the "Teen Mom OG" stars already have two children including Maci Bookout, Kailyn Lowry, and Jenelle Evans. Amber Portwood will also give birth to her second child, a baby boy, this year. Farrah Abraham is the only "Teen Mom OG" star who only has one child and is not expecting one in the near future.
There are still no comments from MTV or the show's producer if they will address Saran's statement. The reality television series "Teen Mom OG" recently aired its season 7's sixth episode titled "What a Ride." The show so far receives mixed score ratings from critics, 3.5 out of 10 from IMDb and 6.6 from TV.com.
