Each of the cast members underwent very specific changes after the no-sex rule and money were introduced on Too Hot to Handle. The singles' initial meeting in paradise was filled with flirty and dirty declarations of fun to come. But once Lana set the stage for them, each of their personality traits became much more pronounced. First of all, the news elicited several grimaces and a few audible groans. What happened next was utterly surprising.
Vixen Francesca did not take the news so well. Viewers were stunned when the brunette bombshell actually burst into tears over the plot twist. Memes were erected (pardon the pun), quoting her disappointment over having to endure celibacy while on the show. "It's like I lost my mom, like, I'm so sad," Francesca said. Even British model Chloe confirmed that Francesca was shaken up about the rules. Chloe admitted her own dismay, but ultimately, the rules of the show changed her for the better.
Chloe told the Daily Mail, "For some of the guys, sex was like a daily exercise for them. It opened my eyes – guys actually love sex. I realised, 'This is why they don't text me back.' Once I've kissed someone, they don't want to know.'" Another participant whose true colors came shining through when learning he'd have to remain chaste to pocket a huge prize was Kelz. Prior to joining the show, Kelz described himself as an "alpha-male who is used to getting what he wants." It became quite evident throughout production that Kelz wanted that money. He carefully and diligently avoided physical contact with Francesca and even Rhonda, whom he's since been linked to after production wrapped.
Sharron amused viewers during his confessional when he spoke of being a promiscuous churchgoing feminist with a huge package. Too bad none of the ladies got to experience him in all his glory during production. Sharron formed a physical connection with single mom Rhonda early into the cast introductions. However, being told they couldn't act on their urges for one another only made this couple lust even harder. As the season progressed, they worked through their arousal and various temptations and began building a relationship that eventually led to Rhonda introducing Sharron to her son.
Too Hot to Handle is a raucous glimpse the socioeconomic ramifications of sex and vanity commingling in a modern society. What makes the show so great is that we see the hedonism of youth culture and all its social media trappings at work. In everyday life, these singles would give into their baser instincts and hook up with each other before the introductions could even be completed. Adding money and conditional elements into the mix heightens the fun for the THTH viewer. Face it: It seemed to make things even spicier for the singles, too. The rules made Sharron and Rhonda convince themselves they were in love, or something close to it. Abstinence even made Francesca and Harry - seemingly two of the most vapid individuals to breathe air - realize that they, too, could be loving and committed. Overall, the change seems to have graduated most of the participants from the swinging singles the show promoted, to casting them in a more conscientious light.
