The Real World Las Vegas cast will reunite for three weeks and live in the Palms suite beginning later this month

In a surprising move by Bunim-Murray Productions, the cast of The Real World: Las Vegas will be reunited to film a reunion series that will last six episodes. MM Agency reports that Alton, Arissa, Brynn, Frank, Irulan, Steven and Trishelle have all been contracted to reunite to live for three weeks in the very same suite that they lived in five years ago. Last week, the Las Vegas Review Journal reported that production and the Palms were in negotiations to return the seven to their former digs.

For clarification purposes, this is not considered to be the 19th or 20th season of The Real World. The 19th season of the Real World is scheduled to be set in Sydney, while the 20th season is currently in its initial casting phases. Perhaps, this may be an entirely different series, as BMP was attempting to reunite the Austin cast before the Las Vegas cast ultimately became free.

Filming begins Monday, April 16 in the Palms Hotel/Casino on the 28th floor. This cast is known for changing the face of the Real World. Their antics on the show caused the show to gain a reputation for hard partying and quite a few irresponsible situations (IE. pregnancy scare, fork-throwing incident). It should be interesting as the dynamics between the cast has changed dramatically since they left the Palms five years ago. Here's a quick update on the cast:

Alton: He dated Irulan for three years and they both moved to Los Angeles together. Alton appeared on the Gauntlet and Kill Reality with Irulan, he also appeared on the Gauntlet II shortly after the break-up. He won on the Gauntlet II. Alton also appears on the upcoming Inferno III. Alton moved back to San Diego shortly after breaking up with Irulan.

Arissa: She moved to Las Vegas shortly after filming ended. There, she was married to a bodyguard she met in Vegas, but the relationship fell apart when Arissa agreed to be a part of the Battle of the Sexes II. Arissa made it to the final three women, but ultimately lost to the men. Her appearance on Battle of the Sexes II caused some friction amongst her former castmembers. Alton, Irulan and Steven all claimed to have some issues with Arissa on the now defunct Fishbowl.com, as they claimed that she was fake.

Brynn: Brynn moved back to Portland after the series ended and began to seriously date Austin. The two were eventually married and had a son, Halen together. Brynn is still living in Portland.

Frank: Frank moved to Los Angeles after filming ended. (If you remember, he, Trishelle, and Steven traveled to Los Angeles so Frank could interview at UCLA.) He attended the Anderson School of Business and then appeared on the Battle of the Sexes II. There, he began a brief relationship with Angela (Extreme), which he didn't like the way in which it was portrayed. The experience left Frank disillusioned with Challenges and he has reportedly said that he never wanted to do a Challenge again.

Irulan: Moved to Los Angeles with Alton and they dated for three years. She appeared on the Gauntlet, but lost near the end, while Alton stayed on to win. They broke up and Irulan hasn't been heard from since.

Steven: Steven appeared on Battle of the Sexes II. He was kicked off after he slapped Shane (Campus Crawl) for talking during a silent mission. He was the host of a radio show over on the Fishbowl for a couple of months, where he claimed that he would never do another Challenge again after being kicked off for slapping Shane. After the Fishbowl went belly up, he hasn't been heard from.

Trishelle: Moved to Los Angeles and appeared on the Gauntlet and Inferno. She began dating The Miz (Back to New York) during the Challenges and she left the Inferno on a sour note after being berated by Coral (Back to New York). Hasn't done a Challenge since. She moved on to pursue a variety of different projects. She hosted the radio show on Fishbowl for a short time before Steven, then she moved onto doing movies and television. She won Reality Fear Factor with The Miz. She appeared on the Lingerie Bowl several times. She also had parts in various movies such as The Dukes of Hazzard 2 and scored a lead role in the upcoming Ninja Cheerleaders.

The series should be good. We'll let you know more information as more becomes available.

Aneesa will send Beth packing in the upcoming episode; Coral has a casting couch for Key West with Cameran, Lacey, Steven, Wes, Willie

Monday marks yet another new episode of the Gauntlet II. Again, the following are spoilers for the episode. If you want to figure out what happens in this and future episodes, highlight the following text:

In this Girl's Gauntlet Day, both Beth (Los Angeles) and Kina (Extreme) face the possibility of going home. While Beth is still aloof from the rest of her team, Kina, the more appreciated of the two, starts to feel the pressure of facing the Gauntlet. With team unity at an all-time low, the Veterans fail to secure a third win, sending Beth into the Gauntlet. Beth picks Aneesa (Chicago) to go into the Gauntlet with her. The long standing feud between the two forces words between them, but eventually Beth is sent packing after a anti-climatic Gauntlet. Only three Gauntlets to go... As we told you earlier, the Veteran women only had one more Gauntlet left, so Aneesa (Chicago), Julie (New Orleans), Katie (The Quest) and Robin (San Diego) will be at the final Challenge.

And a special segment that has been airing on MTV's Overdrive for quite a bit, Coral's (Back to New York) Casting Couch: Your First Look at the Real World Key West aired on MTV for the first time last night. Only those with broadband can access the episode in its entirety on OVerdrive, but MTV will be sure to run the episode once again. Coral (Back to New York) along with Cameran (San Diego), Lacey (Austin), Steven (Las Vegas), Wes (Austin) and Willie (Philadelphia) all sit down in Key West to examine Janelle, John, Jose, Paula, Svetlana, Tyler and Zach. While the show is sprinkled with footage of the season throughout the episode, the special focuses mostly on their casting tapes. But MTV also reminds us throughout the episode that you can watch this, other season previews and even a glimpse of Tuesday night's episode on Overdrive. For those without broadband, you'll just have to wait until Tuesday night at 10pm.

Kill Reality has Trishelle, Steven, Tonya; Movie is now available and isn't all that bad

We here at the Blog had the pleasure of reviewing Kill Reality's end product, "The Scorned". Many of you had the opportunity to catch the edited version on E! which aired Halloween night. Fishbowl Films releases its uncensored, unedited 2-disc DVD version of the Scorned romorrow exclusively on The Fishbowl and E!. We got our hands on an advanced copy and give the lowdown here.

Well, first of all which Real World stars appear in the film? Steven (Las Vegas), Trishelle (Las Vegas) and Tonya (Chicago) all have major roles, while Irulan (Las Vegas) has a cameo appearance. They all join a gaggle of other reality television stars from other television shows such as Survivor, The Amazing Race, The Bachelor, Big Brother, etc., And if you're familiar with the cast of Kill Reality, you're familiar with those other reality television stars who scored major roles in the film.

As for the story itself, you can't really call the Scorned much of a horror movie. It's much more a parody of the stars itself. Most everyone plays gross exaggerations of their alter-egos that once appeared on television. Every joke in the movie is pretty much geared toward reality television. If the story can't keep you reeled in, the movie poking fun of itself will.

The DVD also comes with an extra disc of extras, including director's commentary, Rob C.'s history of reality television, a bloopers/gag reel, the auditions of the stars of the movie (oddly featuring Jonathan of the Amazing Race), and a passcode for other features only included on the web. And again, this is the uncensored version of the movie, so yes, there is tons of nudity in the film. The DVD will become available tomorrow exclusively on The Fishbowl and E!. It will become available via major retailers early next year.

Steven is sent home for slapping Shane; Shane hooks up with Nick

Here's some more information on Battle of the Sexes 2. Highlight to read:

Apparently, Steven (Las Vegas) makes it relatively far in the Challenge. He's very close to making it to the final three. However, an incident occurs in which I'm told Steven "accidentally" slaps Shane (Campus Crawl) and some sort of a huff is made about it. It's unclear what exactly happens or if Steven gets voted off or is sent home, but it has something to do with his hitting Shane.

Speaking of Shane, supposedly he and Nick (Xtreme) did have something going on during filming. However, it's supposed to be well-hidden and away from the cameras. So we might not even see any of it.
