"Eesh. Forget 16 and Pregnant--how about 22 and Locked Up?MTV just announced that on Oct. 9, they&amp;#x27;ll air a special interview with Amber Portwood--one that will be taped from the prison she&amp;#x27;s currently serving time in. I think it goes without saying that Dr. Drew will be conducting said interview. As the release put it: &amp;quot;Dr. Drew sits down with Amber Portwood inside the Rockville Correctional Facility for an intimate discussion about what life has been like behind bars, the status of her relationship with her daughter Leah, ex-boyfriend Gary, and her family, and her hopes for the future.&amp;quot; Amber was sentenced to five years (!) in prison for drug-related charges in June. It&amp;#x27;s kind of surreal to think that while some of her cohorts in the reality-TV phenomenon are planning weddings and releasing singles right now, Amber is at rock bottom. What do you guys think about this--is MTV being exploitative by using Amber&amp;#x27;s incarceration to squeeze more drama out of the franchise? Or do you think it&amp;#x27;s important for &amp;quot;fans&amp;quot; of Teen Mom to see where all of this can eventually end up? More on Teen Mom... Guess Which Teen Mom Star is Engaged?
