Music Stars Who Didn't Capitalize on Reality TV Fame - Chopper — who you may or not remember from Da Band, the group Diddy assembled on the first season of reality show Making Da Band — is back in the news. And no, not for making music, or even another reality show. The New Orleans rapper was recently arrested in Las Vegas and is currently awaiting extradition on warrants for extortion and unauthorized use of a vehicle. We shouldn't really be that surprised — Chopper is just joining the long line of musicians who appeared on reality shows but have little to show for it. Click on to see what we mean.

JoJo Simmons - Run's House, the MTV reality show about Rev. Run's family, often showed the failed attempts of oldest son Jojo Simmons to get his rapper-producer career off the ground.

Khia - Khia played herself by appearing with a bunch of no-names on VH1's Miss Rap Supreme show — and then getting disqualified in the second round for spitting a written during a freestyle challenge. Worst of all, her career remained in neutral despite the new exposure. (Photo: Big Cat Records)
