One of the crew members of the Key West cast is assaulted while filming

One of the crew members filming the Real World Key West was assaulted this past weekend by a drunk man at a local bar. According to the article published at keynews.com, the man was asked to leave the bar because he was drunk and then a few minutes later he punched the crew member. The funny part about the story is that the crew member kept taping through the whole incident. Between this and the hurricanes it looks like the Key West season is going to be a good one.

Key West cast is evacuated in a threat of another hurricane to hit the coast

The Real World: Key West cast has evacuated the Florida Keys once again. In the impending wake of Hurricane Wilma, the cast evacuated to West Palm Beach, where they were sighted at a bar called "Automatic Slims". A few weeks ago, the cast took shelter in West Palm Beach when Hurricane Rita stormed through the Keys. This hurricane season has just recently made history: there have been so many hurricanes that the hurricane naming system has now gone onto the Greek alphabet.

The Miz is on WWE.com; Pictures of Jose and Svetlana surface online

Mike has been in Atlanta ever since filming on the Inferno II wrapped up, working with Deep South Wrestling, trying to land a development deal with the WWE. Well, you can check out Mike's column here. Word has it that he has already landed the development deal and will join Friday Night Smackdown with another Tough Enough winner.

So, Svetlana joins Paula, Star, Zach, Tyler and Jose as part of the Real World: Key West... or at least they do until MTV officially announces the cast.

Eighteenth season of the Real World is rumored to be in Detroit

Do you think the Real World Royal Oak has a nice ring to it? Well there is a possibility that Royal Oak, Michigan might be the next location for the Real World. According to an article posted on RealityBlurred, Viacom, MTV's parent company, has leased a significant amount of space in downtown Royal Oak for its MTV network. This might lend truth to the rumor that MTV is planning a Superbowl related season of the show. Only time will tell if it is just a rumor.

Case against Key West is ruled in producers favor; Dan does an article about open casting calls

The case brought against the Key West production has been ruled on. If you need to be updated on the fight, neighbors of the house on Driftwood Drive sued producers because of all the bright lights and noise disrupting residents on Driftwood Drive. Yesterday, Judge Mark Jones ruled that production could stay in Key West. Had the judge ruled otherwise, production would have been scrapped altogether on the season, as production told the court that Key West did not have room for them in other parts of the city. The only stipulation that the judge imposed on the production was the addition of further light fixtures to the house. Check out the article at the Miami Herald. You'll need to register. The article contains a picture of four castmembers in front of their tanning salon: a blond female, two males (one of which looks like Jose) and a brunette female.

Dan (Miami) also wrote an article for the Dallas Voice about an open casting call he did for the Real World in Dallas. Check it out!
