Cast: So far the only cast member that everyone is sure of would be the winner of the first ever Real World Casting competition. The rest on this list are all "connect the dots" speculation for the time being. MTV did make it clear when putting out casting calls that they were looking for people that were seekin professional goals much like the original season in New York.

Greg Halstead -100% probability



Winner of the Real World Casting Contest. Rumor has it he was actually kicked off the show because he did not meld well with the other cast members and did not enjoy the gig at IOWEST. No way at this point to validate this, but the next rumor in this line of logic is that Kanik from Real World Casting replaced him.

Brianna Taylor - 99% probability



This former American Idol contestant fits the mold for this seasons format quite well and her myspace page is littered with clues such as the standard, "miss you" and "come back soon" type stuff. This is the rumored contestant most people seem to be in consensus on.

To find the next cast member I just used the nifty "new friends" feature on myspace which showed all of Brianna's new friends. You have to figure that she just met the other cast members so if they were to be added it would have been recently.

That is how I found Kim.

Kimmy - 99% probability



Her myspace page is again littered with clues. Including this:



This basically tells us she is in Hollywood, 2500 miles from her home in Columbia, South Carolina and that filming is done on the 5th of December. Why would her phone be turned off, right?

She is also friends with the comedy club IOWEST. ORLY?

Doing a search of google search on IOWEST, I found out that Neil Flynn is a player there. You know, the guy from Scrubs!



Here is Kimmy and Neil. How cute....and obvious we are on to something!


Moving forward to the next cast member...

Justin - 1% probability



Once again using the "new friend" method I found Justin who "happens to be" in Cali right now. I tie him to Kim via the picture below and then ask myself how they could be connected other then via the show. Looks to be a friend of the cast only. Not a cast member.






Chris Kanik - 1% probability



If MTV was going to use a finalist from their Real World Casting Contest to fill in this season, Chris would seem to be the best guy for the job keeping with the IOWEST Theme. He is a comedian and was even introduced to a comedy gig with the tag line - "Will be appearing on MTV in the spring." There is no evidence to prove that he was ever on the show.


So that is all I have so far, but hopefully it is a good start to this spoiler thread! I have a few more cast members that I am still checking out and waiting for more details before I post, but if anyone else has the goods -SHARE!



Edit 12/06/2007 - Added Sarah Ralston evidence ; Upgraded Kim to 99% probably after more details emerged.
