Joel Kim Booster calls out Shannon Beador for mistreating 'Love Hotel' crew in since-deleted posts

Comedian and host Joel Kim Booster publicly called out Real Housewives of Orange County star Shannon Beador in a series of since-deleted Instagram posts, accusing her of mistreating the crew during the filming of the upcoming dating series Love Hotel. Booster described Beador as a “pathetic drunk” and claimed her behavior on set was unacceptable, stating, “Just because you’re a pathetic drunk on a reality television show… does not give you license to treat the people you work with like they are subhuman.”

The posts were quickly deleted, but not before Booster commented, “Don’t regret it. Hope you screenshot it.” He also sympathized with Beador’s ex-boyfriend, John Janssen, stating, “I can’t imagine what John Janssen went through. Poor guy.” According to an Instagram Live viewer, Booster also accused Beador of being "a terror" throughout filming and allegedly insulting someone close to him at the wrap party.

The posts and livestream ignited further discussion online, with fans of both Booster and Beador weighing in on the controversy.
