During production of season six, residents from Sherman Oaks complained that noise levels and swearing was extremely unbearable and inappropriate for them and their children to listen to during the night. Clarissa Keller, a local Sherman Oaks resident, complained that she has a six-year-old son and didn’t want him to listen to the swearing, she went as far as creating a petition drive to ban all Sherman Oaks hills. The tour of season six’s mansion was released for public viewing on December 15, 2010, while Oxygen changed their website’s homepage for the upcoming season of the Bad Girls Club. The tour of the house was hosted by Steve Leonhardt, the Bad Girls Club production designer, and several days prior to the arrival of the cast of season six, in September 2010.
Season six is the fourth season, overall, to have two “bad girls” who were from the same city and state. The last seasons to do so was season one, season two, and Season 5: Miami of the “Bad Girls Club”.
