Tonight is the series premiere of TLC’s Gypsy Sisters as the network brings back its breakout stars the Stanley Sisters from My Big Fat American Gypsy Wedding for their own spin-off reality series. Kayla, Nettie and Laura all bring an entertaining superdose of Romany gypsy drama and attitude, but I don’t think anyone would argue that the show’s true drama dynamo is Mellie Stanley. The rebellious 23-year-old is reality TV gold thanks in part to her propensity for alcohol consumption, stripping, and not taking any sh*t from anybody.

But, viewers might be surprised to find out that “Hellie Mellie” isn’t the most notorious of the Stanley ladies — not by a long shot.
