When producers provide a large background story on one individual, usually referring to a tragic event in their lives. This is usually seen on shows like American Idol. Usually makes a sap feel sympathetic and start supporting the individual.
Girl: When I was little, my mom died and I had to be raised by my grandmother! I'm so sad but I think I can sing! Please love me!!

Guy watching TV: Ugh I hate this sap story.
