How do reality tv shows keep contestants from spilling the winner before the finale is shown on tv?

I know shows like survivor etc have live finales to prevent this but what abt shows like top model?

1. They are recorded before released. They probably sign contracts.
2. they sign confidentiality contracts so they can't spill the beans =)
3. i don't know for sure but i *suspect* it has something to do with a very heavy legal contract that stipulates that they won't get paid a dime for their efforts if they squeal. i think it's remarkable that reality show resuts don't get leaked out! esp.those crazy reunion shows (i.e., flavor of love, ILNY, etc., etc.). but i do think some heavy-handed lawyers prohibit disclosure. that said, however, i am still curious about the outcome of "megan wants a millionaire." perhaps we'll never know... then again, the tragic murder of Jasmine Fiore understandably pre-empted things. just my opinion
4. They sign contracts. But that does not mean that they haven't told their BFF or boyfriend/girlfriend husband/wife. I bet that some of them have.
