Charm School 3 Finale - Risky Wins In Shocker
If anyone actually thought that Risky would win Charm School 3 against Ashley, a stripper, and Marcia, a self-professed alcoholic, I would have found them to be an idiot.
But after hearing Risky give a passionate speech about how her childhood was not too great and was riddled by allegations of child molestation, you had to think that she had the best chance of anyone to win the $100,000.
In the end, Risky’s explanation was simply too much and far overmatched either Ashley’s or Marcia’s. I think all three girls were changing before us, but Risky’s speech just did more for Ricki Lake than the other two girls, not to take anything away from either Ashley or Marcia.
Out of all the Charm School shows to date, I found this one to be the most realistic and saw the most change coming out of these girls. All were admittedly skeptical of changing their lives, and all did so with the support of their families.
So all ended well, in my view, and the right person won, even though the three finalists all won in some way, shape or form. Marcia is fighting a deadly addiction, Ashley fought her own demons and is winning and so did Risky. And Ricki Lake made for the best and most competent host the show has ever seen.
