Rank the Musical Hotties of MTV's "The Real World" (First Four Seasons Only)

she put some paper cups inside her bra just cause she was so down for whatever

i'd bang becky. and since that is presumptively what this thread is all about, that's my vote.

if there's nothing sexual ... as in, i'd like this individual ... then i'd vote for mohammad.

rest of the cast just could not hang, fuckin herbs

real world ny was so rad. heather b + julie 4eva

this thread is about being whoever you are inside, just like the first four seasons of the real world

these early seasons' tentative flirtations seem so chaste and innocent after the day 1 hot tub orgy era of the Real World kicked in

jon brennan was good for some serious lols -- the way he sang "truuuue storay" all twangy in the opening credits will still be tattooed on my brain when i'm 80

feel like someone should try a reality show like the original real world w/more varied/interesting types of people instead of the usual toned psychos cause hey why not dont worry be happy

eric nies was patient zero

haha yeah i'm kind of amazed it took four seasons for mtv to realize that "a bunch of weirdos with their own ambitions outside the house" made for less compelling tv than "pretty but mentally ill and/or drug-addicted sex fiends"

i forgot that tami was a singer

i guess wiring her jaw shut was a savvy career move then

these seasons were a little before my time, but i could really throw down when it comes to the early 2000s RW (New York 2 was the best of that lot btw... what a great mix of knuckleheads)

that jaw wiring thing was totally batshit

TAMI was totally batshit

she was crazy yeah

i totally had a senior moment a few years back when for a few seconds i though the black comedian dude who got kicked out of the house was dave chappelle and i had to go check online to be sure

lol @ what you did with Lars' last name btw

haha his name was david!

i forgot that tami was a singer

re former pro baller kenny anderson: His daughters Lyric and Jazz are from his first marriage with Tami Akbar (now Tami Roman). Akbar was a cast member on The Real World: Los Angeles (the second season), and is currently on VH1's Basketball Wives. He and Akbar were married from 1994 to 2001.[14],[15] Akbar filed for divorce in Christmas 1998 citing Anderson's infidelity. She successfully challenged the 1995 $5.8 million pre-nup. As a result of the divorce Tami acquired a sizeable portion of his assets (reported to be half) in addition to $8500 monthly child support. Tami had a license plate custom-made to mark her victory with the phrase "HISCASH".

I remembering loving the way Jacinda dressed with her crazy flowy fairy skirts but realizing that I will never be that person in crazy flowy fairy skirts with flowers in my hair - that was a sad day for me.

i have definitely thought a few times in retrospect that the sarcastic black comedian named david on RW was kind of proto-chappelle

see erica shoulda been like me and wanted to be the drunken irish rock critic

i pick an achievable dream and then achieve it

was dominic a rock critic? i liked him.

I liked him too! He was funny and while I dind't want to be him I remember wanting to hand out with him.

he seemed like a real person

they're even both from D.C.! although back when david edwards was dragging tami out of bed and getting evicted from the RW house dave chappelle was already livin' large on the big screen in robin hood: men in tights

dominic was a real person but still totally hilarious

dominic was a rock cricket, yes. i think he took jon to some kind of madchester showcase or something?

former ILXor Ptee worked briefly on RW:London; apparently Sharon's laryngitis scare was a ploy to seize camera time

i just remember dom being real big into the happy mondays and all that shit

dominic from the rw, not passantino, but who knows

haha tami is on basketball wives now? that makes her maybe the longest career of any serial reality show star

god dammit am I going to have to start watching Basketball Wives now

i think dominic was sadly overshadowed by the SNL real world sketch where mike myers played him by simply saying "I'm FROM DUBLIN" over and over

I'm trying to remember when I stopped watching entirely.

Probably around 2000 when I mpved here and had my first real apt/job and was so poor that my cable got shut off and the only channel I got for year was PAX the Christian network. I don't think I ever got back on board after that. I have, however, seen every episode of both Highway to Heaven and 7th Heaven.

I am pretty sure we will all agree on this but I'm just gonna go ahead and say it - Beth was completely awful, right?

haha a GIS for 'becky blasbland', 1st hit is this thread

as soon as this poll ends im doing a 7th heaven poll

happy the dog in a landslide

beth was the kind of roommate who took sides based purely on whatever would instigate the most drama

... I watched almost the entirety of the most recent Las Vegas season

they had a homophobic dude on who had done gay pr0n

Beth was completely awful, right?

YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES

so yes, completely awful

hahahahah :D Jess

I have big opinions on that show.

i almost felt a little bad for beth because she had one of the least appealing faces in history but then she was so awful i couldn't

tbh that's because strongo misspelled her name

I hated everything about her and then she kept on appearing on all the challenge shows and stuff 10 years later and it was like bitch you're 45 go get a real job or something.

which season had the right-wing cubana and a gay dude screaming at each other? was that beth?

hahaha beth looked like bruce from kids in the hall in drag tbh

pretty much

Hawaii was the last one I watched. I really disliked most of that cast. Matt (?) was such a scumbag. And that pretentious girl was really awful was well.

as well

The days are long, the years are short.

Wasn't it the Chicago/Wicker Park year where there was finally the coordinated online effort to fuck with the house/cast since everybody knew where they were living?

Hawaii was the last one I watched. I really disliked most of that cast. Matt (?) was such a scumbag. And that pretentious girl was really awful was well.

I think it was RealWorldSucks that started calling her (Kaia) K-A1-a, claiming she was a malfunctioning android

Andif I remember correctly her real name was Margaret and she started calling herself Kaia after a trip to Africa.

I remember thinking that had I lived in that house, I would have either pulled a Ruthie and drank myself into rehab or a Justin and attempted to make my roommates destroy each other

She seemed to really relish being mean to Amaya after Amaya did whatever she did that justified everyone being mean to her.
And then she decided she "liked" Matt.

I remember Amaya saying some stupid shit about Ruthie at the beginning but watching her go from being "the vain popular girl" to "crying target of unearned ire" was really difficult to watch; Ruthie's behavior/support in the midst of all of that given the shit that happened earlier really made me love her more.

TECK IS HOSTING HOLE IN THE WALL NOW

Yes, Ruthie definitely ended up being the most admirable and likable of that cast. The others (except Teck, I think) were obviously enjoying ganging up on the weak one and being able to "justify" it.

Oh man, I loved RealWorldSucks. Never watched the show, only the recaps which treated the participants with the scathing derision they deserved.

You guys the Onion AV Club has been recapping Season 1 of The Real World and I didn't even know it: http://www.avclub.com/tvclub/tvshow/the-real-world,177/

this thread feels almost too classic to be less than a year old

Just found the Becky Blasband album on Slsk the other day, btw. Felt like a winner.

yeah this may be my favorite of all the ilx threads i've started.

tbh it's what convinced me to stick around this time after underrated aero tricked me into posting again during the mr. jay batman debacle. because i love you guys. #nokaramo

I seriously lost half my work day scrolling through this and giggling

plz don't make me go back to the Jay Batman saga

jables was a beautiful gift, i miss him

IT WAS A TOY LOVE
