Love is Blind’s Cameron Hamilton says some elements of show are artificial

According to former Season 1 contestant Cameron Hamilton, the majority of Love Is Blind was not scripted. Yet despite there not being a script for the contestants, there were certain elements on the show that were “artificial.”

Hopping on YouTube, Cameron answered some of the most frequently asked questions about Love is Blind. When asked whether the show was scripted, he answered “No,” yet further explained which elements were produced.

“The most artificial aspect of things was sometimes a producer would pop up in the background. You know, I might have been talking to Matt Barnett, and the producers in the background with an iPad would say, ‘Hey, ask him about his date with Jessica’ or ‘ask him how his date was with Amber.’ And so I would put that into the conversation,” he said.

“We might have been talking about golf or video games or beer or whatever, but they wanted to direct our conversations back to specific things.”

Cameron continued, saying, “That’s what production’s job is. I do want to make a note that production’s job is exactly what it sounds like- to produce. To stir the pot, to create drama, to insight emotions in the cast.”

Overall, Cameron said that the show was not scripted, yet producers would encourage the contestants to shift the conversation toward matters concerning the experiment.
