Reality star Megan Hauserman got her start on the VH1 series Rock Of Love, starring Bret Michaels. She appeared in several other shows before launching Megan Wants A Millionaire in 2009. The premise was Megan hunting for a suitor worth more than $1 million. After just three episodes, things got creepy.

It was revealed that contestant Ryan Jenkins was a suspect in his wife’s murder. He and Jasmine Fiore wed after the show completed production. Jenkins was found dead in a motel room in Canada on Aug. 23, 2009. The show was initially suspended and then canceled after Jenkins took his own life.
