Real World - Road Rules Challenge

I have two words regarding Save the Last Dance: Aw, yeah. I have two more words regarding Antitrust: War Games.

"The big burning controversy...did I sleep with Kathryn?" Is it Ho-ho-holly? Why no, of course it's Laterrian from Road Rules Maximum Velocity. LT begins the segment asking, "What is a Laterrian?" I'm still wondering. Laterrian says that they showed him naked a lot, and his mother suggested that he go in Playgirl. Also, Laterrian swore a lot. This is the best they could come up with? Everyone asks if he slept with Kathryn. He tells them that it's "grown folks' business." What does that even mean? Laterrian learned from Theo and James that he doesn't have to always be serious. Some fan emailed him and told LT that he's a role model. Laterrian likes to help out and be an African-American male role model. He feels that someone younger than him could duplicate his path. He doesn't know if he's going to go to medical school. That's all we get of LT.

"White, capitalist, heterosexual, male guy." I can't even make a joke about this one because it's obviously Jamie from Real World New Orleans. He gives us information that readers of this site already know -- he watched the Casting Special and then didn't watch any more, because he was upset about his portrayal. It's interesting though, that the producers are letting the cast members acknowledge that there is a "portrayal" that may or may not reflect reality. Jamie lives in San Francisco, and is still working on soulgear.com, which is apparently "a movement," which may or may not involve bowels. Hey, there's always room for scatological humor. Jamie claims that two huge elements of his life were not portrayed on the show -- the first is his company, and the second is his relationship with the love of his life. We see them walking on the beach, as Jamie talks about a "soul connection that's eternal." Jamie says he wants to "teach [his] kids through globetrotting," and "walk the earth with my kid." I hope he has a trust fund. I'm sure he does. Jamie think he will look back on the show in ten years and be happy. Thanks, Jamie. Going into commercial, we see a bumper of Michelle saying that Laterrian got the wind knocked out of him, and they had to call the paramedics. Then we get the annoying commercial where Jamie says, "Do you know anyone that's died doing this?" about seven hundred times.
