British Reality Show: Participants in Space!
Apparently a British reality show will feature participants being hoaxed into thinking they're taking a trip to space.

It'll be interesting to see how many fall for it and for how long, but I'm thinking the lack of 3 Gs during takeoff and having gravity in near-earth orbit might give it away.

I think you're overestimating the intelligence of the type of people that audition for reality TV shows
People with just average intelligence will know that space turistsare not sent to space in six packs and that it is economical out of reach for a TV station.
A just under average intelligent person will know that (s)he is not qualified for such a trip. Emergency situations and such.
Only a person stupid enough not to know that (s)he is too stupid for space travel will fall for this.
