Tonya Reiman tells TMZ Kamala’s new muted laugh is a sharp departure from her usual high-pitched cackle ... suggesting she was coached to dial it down to win over viewers.

We caught up with the Oppenheim Group boss in Los Angeles, where he told TMZ that he had no clue the season 8 new addition didn't actually own the western town in Yucca Valley, California, like she claimed on the show.

Rather, he learned the truth when Pioneertown spoke out to dispute Alanna's false claim.
