Cast profiles for Chicago released; 9/11 may be profiled on the show
The cast:
Aneesa: A 19-year-old from Philadelphia. Her father is black and her mother is Jewish. She's described as a lesbian trying to find her place in the world.
Cara: A 22-year-old from Boston. A middle child of upper-middle-class Jewish parents, she's a student from Washington University in St. Louis.
Chris: A 23-year-old from Brockton, Mass. He's a gay recovering alcoholic who's been sober for eight months and regularly attends Alcoholics Anonymous meetings.
Kyle: A 22-year-old from Lake Bluff, Ill. An all-American golden boy with good looks and athletic ability. Princeton University student.
Keri: A 21-year-old from New Orleans. A southern blonde with a seemingly limitless circle of friends and acquaintances. She grew up on a farm in the Louisiana and her family is deeply rooted in Louisiana culture and politics.
Theo: A 19-year-old from Riverside, Calif. An African-America son of a pastor who is a ladies man. His move to Chicago is the first time he's lived in a diverse environment.
Tonya: A 21-year-old from Walla Walla, Wash. A blond-haired, blue-eyed woman with a "Baywatch body." Neglected by her mother, she grew up in the foster care system.
While in Chicago, the cast worked at Piece (a restaurant), a beach, and a newspaper. It is unclear why they worked at different places, whether they were given jobs this year or whatnot, so we'll see what BMP will show. Also, the cast was filming during 9/11, so I'm sure you'll see something about that, because the Sears Tower in Chicago was evacuated that day, and there was widespread panic in the city. Also, if you haven't heard... filming began with trouble.
Supposedly, the day the Real Worlders moved in, a shooting occured in front of the loft. Attention was brought to the Real World house because of the Chicago Sun-Times reporting the address of the loft in the newspaper. Protests begun to kick the Real Worlders out. Things happened from there, cast members were offered the chance to leave the show for next season. We'll see what happens, but I'm sure it'll be a great season. More later. Stay tuned.

The Blog makes it onto Blogger; Sarah from the Real World Miami spotted at a Britney Spears concert
Yes! It's true! We've switched to Blogger! Well, we thought that the Blogger stuff looked spiffy so here we are. A lot easier to update I must say! First thing's first: The Real World Chi-Town! More dish to come later including lesbian love affairs, the hatred of Theo, Chris' wild love affairs, and the second inter-cast member relationship since Hawaii??? Stay tuned! You won't want to miss this!
Here's the dish on our very first sighting! It comes from Mallory who spotted Sarah from the Real World: Miami!
"I was at the Britney Spears concert last night in Philadelphia, and after my two friends and I got out tickets scanned, we walked into the lobby and my friend goes "Oh man..Is that...it is!" It was Sarah from Real World Miami selling glowsticks! So we stood there like idiots and stared at her, and she saw us and she mouths "Yes it's me..It was a long time ago." We were amazed! We came back a little later to buy glowsticks from her because we felt bad for gaping at her, but she was so cool about it. We talked for a little while and she said it was funny how only the older teenagers (seniors in highschool, like us) and younger moms only recognize her and their kids are like "who is this chick?". She was really cool and she also gave us some background info on the concert. Not backstage passes or anything, but it was till cool. She's so nice and looks just the same! Hey - I'm definitely going to keep that glowstick!"
Thanks Mallory! More to come soon guys! Hold tight!

Casting for Road Rules 11 and Road Rules 12 is underway; New art for New Orleans cast is available
Road Rules 11 and Real World 12. Location is already decided upon,
but has not yet been released. The four locations, announced by a BMP
spokesperson, for Real World 12 were Atlanta, Pittsburgh, Philadelphia,
and Las Vegas. Las Vegas was the front runner. And probably because
of what has happened in Chicago, Las Vegas will be picked, because
the kids are most likely not to be bothered in Las Vegas, where there
is filming all the time. If you might remember, Las Vegas has been considered
since Boston. Hawaii's original location was Las Vegas but for
some reason, it was quickly changed last minute. Also, there are only 11 spots open instead
of the usual 13, because two of the original Chicago cast members dropped
out of RW12 because of the shootings. Submit Your Tape at:
Attn: Real World/ Road Rules Casting
6007 Sepulveda Blvd.
Van Nuys, CA 91411
No open calls have been announced or deadlines have been set. Good Luck to those
who apply.
Lionel Milton, who you saw on the RW New Orleans as Melissa's artist friend,
still loves the Real World. He made computer shot-outs that look awesome.
Visit his site to send a shot-out to your
closest friends.

Rumors about the Battle of the Seasons cast; Chicago collage to showcase the new cast
Just go ahead and click below to check it out. These are not our pics, visit the above sites to get access to the originals.
RW11 Cast Collage
I just forget about the most important things! The jobs at Piece are
short-lived. The Chicago Sun-Times report that they are currently not letting
the cast members work. They are reportedly "not currently on the schedule". Thanks
so much for the people who gave us the sightings... WE NEED TO POST THEM! Anyways,
we heard the 45-minute wait for Piece isn't worth it.
Here's the Challenge tally so far peoples:
New York: Heather, Norman
San Francisco: Puck, Jo
Miami: Flora, Mike
Seattle:Lindsay, Stephen
Back to New York: Mike
Australia: Chadwick, Christina
Maximum Velocity Tour: Theo, Holly
The following are TOTAL guesses. It's from speculation
I got and reasoning. Some of them are just total guesses in the
dark. This is pretty fun. LOL.
Los Angeles: Beth S., David
London: Mike*, Sharon
Boston: Jason*, Elka
Hawaii: Teck, Ruthie
New Orleans: Kelley, David*
Back to New York: Lori
USA Tour 1: Shelly, Mark
USA Tour 2: Effie, Devin
Europe: Belou, Chris
Islands: Erika, Jake
Northern Trail: Tara, Jon
Latin America: Josh*, Gladys

By the way, it is still VERY unclear if this Challenge will pan out like hoped
for. There are rumors that filming of the Challenge might be pushed back
or whatnot with RW11 going overseas. This is the first time production
will film two different RW/RR projects at one time! It can be done!
Filming is slated to begin in September.
