The Key West house has an address and is being sued by their neighbors
Reality Blurred is reporting that the seventeenth season of The Real World has already landed its house. The site was the first to confirm that BMP had chosen Key West as the location for the next installment of the series.
The location of the house is 32 Driftwood Drive. This is in the Key Haven area of Key West. If you live nearby, feel free to snap a few photos. (Be careful, security guards have been known to stop curious photographers.) Send them to us at newrwroad@hotmail.com. The seven strangers have yet to move in.
Also, the production company is being sued by neighbors of the Driftwood house. This isn't the first time that production has encountered opposition in moving into the house. Production nearly left Philadelphia because union leaders were protesting that BMP used non-union labor in the construction of the house. Chicago was met with dozens of protesters during filming because many wanted to keep commercial business out of the Wicker Park area of Chicago. The only time when a town successfully barred filming of a series was when production tried to take over a mansion in Newport, Rhode Island for the first Gauntlet. Eventually, they were disallowed to use the house and production moved to the Wnydham Peaks Resort in Telluride, Colorado. Usually, production bears the protests and keeps on truckin' along. So expect no real obstacle from filming to be located in Key West.

A Key West resident attempts to bar producers from filming on Driftwood Drive
It seems that MTV is encountering some problems with the filming of the upcoming season of the Real World. An article posted at Keynoter.com claims that Ed Swift, a resident of Key West, is suing MTV for not following zoning guidelines while preparing to film the next season. The bright side of this story is that we do find out two important things about RW Key West. It looks like the location for the house is Stock Island and that MTV have leased the house from June 28 to December 1. Check out the article for full details.

Danny buys Melinda a Tiffany's bracelet, a PSP, and a trip to the Cayman Islands
Danny (Austin) was on 103.7 KISS FM (Wisconsin) talking about his relationship with none other than Melinda (Austin). Although rumors are rampant that the two are now living together, they are both still living apart and have little chance to see each other because of busy work schedules. Melinda recently had a birthday in which Danny surprised her with a Tiffany's bracelet, a PSP and a trip for both of their families to the Cayman Islands.

Trishelle and Tonya are on tonight's episode of Kill Reality; Palms suite is on the Surreal Life; Eric is on the Guiding Light
On tonight's episode of Kill Reality both Trishelle (Las Vegas) and Tonya (Chicago) will be featured heavily. The episode has to do with Trishelle's death scene in the movie and both of their relationships with Survivor Pearl Islands' Johnny Fairplay.
If you watch The Surreal Life over on VH1, the seven psuedo-celebrities are being shacked up in The Real World digs in Las Vegas. The pad, which is the infamous site where Britney Spears spent her honeymoon in her first annulled marriage, still remains exactly the same way the seven roomies left it. What's interesting though, is for those of you that didn't know, The Surreal Life owes itself to The Real World. The original title of the Surreal Life was the Surreal World, until BMP sued to have it changed. Surreal Life airs every Sunday night.
Also, Eric (Campus Crawl) recently filmed a guest spot on the Guiding Light which aired last Monday.

Jake is trekking across America; Coral and Mike are team captains
Jake (Islands) has started a new project up at his blog. From what started from the search to meet his soulmate to a trek across America, read Jake's latest adventures at his blog.
The Battle of the Network Reality Stars premieres tonight. And despite there being a focus on teams being split up by networks, it looks like the teams will be split up randomly. Once again, from MTVs Real World and Road Rules, we have Coral (Back to New York), Melissa (New Orleans), Mike (Back to New York) and Theo (Maximum Velocity Tour). Trishelle (Las Vegas) will also be sharing sideline reporting duties with other reality TV stars. Coral and Melissa are on the red team. Mike (Back to New York) is on the blue team. Theo (Maximum Velocity Tour) is on the green team.
What's the red team's name? Team Coral. What's the blue team's name? Team Miz. This after Evan Marriott (Joe Millioniare), Adam Mesh (Average Joe) and Richard Hatch (Survivor Borneo) all said that certain castmembers took the show a little more seriously than others. Looks like all those years of Challenges will pay off. Battle of the Network Reality Stars airs tonight at 9PM on Bravo.
