As you’ve likely heard by now, Farrah Abraham has been fired from Teen Mom OG for her continued involvement in the world of adult entertainment. Many have defended the controversial star’s right to supplement her income however she sees fit. Many more, however, have applauded MTV for the decision. Of course, that seems to have less to do with porn and more to do with the fact that Farrah is just generally not very well-liked. Abraham is not without allies on social media but her castmates seem to have generally adopted a “good riddance” stance. That’s why word of Farrah’s new ally is so unexpected. It’s been almost a year since Amber Portwood and Matt Baier called off their engagement , but the disgraced former fiancee is still questioned about his feelings regarding the show. Baier recently appeared on Radar Online’s Teen Mom podcast, where he was asked for his thoughts about MTV’s decision to cut ties with Farrah. “I think it’s wrong,” Baier said bluntly. He went on to make a valid (if somewhat naïve) point about MTV’s hypocrisy: “Farrah was originally taken off the show for doing porn. Then she was brought back onto the show. It’s not like the porn was a new thing,” he said. “Is the message: We’re going to bring her back because we had potentially dipping ratings? Now that we feel our ratings are strong, we no longer approve of how she lives her life? I don’t think that’s right.” Baier wasn’t on the show very long, but certainly long enough to get an understanding of how reality TV works. Obviously, Farrah was brought back to assist with declining ratings and kicked to the curb when producers began to feel she was more of a liability than an asset. That’s how it always works, Matt! Farrah is obviously a nightmare to work with. She was only brought back because her insanity made her a ratings magnet. With time, however, viewers started to get as sick of her schtick as producers always were. Farrah’s been doing porn for years. MTV and Viacom only started objecting to it when they needed a reason to fire her. Now, Farrah is suing her former bosses, but she probably doesn’t have a leg to stand on. All they have to do is convince the judge that her live-stream sex shows were a detriment to the show’s reputation (which shouldn’t be hard to do), and it’s case closed. We understand what Matt is saying, but he’s delusional if he thinks MTV will ever regret giving Farrah the boot. Watch Teen Mom OG online to relive Farrah’s highlights and many, many lowlights from her time on the show. View Slideshow: Farrah Abraham: Hey! Look, Maci Bookout is Doing Porn Too!
