Oh good heavens, I am getting so sick of the comments and threads that say that Halfwit was automatically put in the show. Read what you posted.. Halfwit was TOLD TO AUDITION. That means that he had to go through the same auditions as everyone else. The ONLY difference is that rather than sending an application into the show, they asked him to audition.

Let me break it down for you:

Freddie:
1. Freddie is asked to audition for the show.
2. Freddie attends multiple interviews, screen tests, group meetings, etc.
3. Freddie is picked out of all of those who made it through the audition process.

Other person:
1. Other person sends in application to show.
2. Other person attends multiple interviews, screen tests, group meetings, etc.
3. Other person is picked out of all of those who made it through the audition process.

Is this clear? Freddie did not meet this person at the wedding and automaticaly made the show. AND Freddie was NOT the only person who was asked to audition. This is standard procedure for EVERY reality show. When producers or others associated with the show meet someone they think would be good tv, they ask them to audition. This isn't news. In this case, Freddie was the only one (that we know of) that was selected for the show.
