Ibis is so cool! I didn't know she'd had such a bad accident. :( This makes me like her even more. What a trooper. Going from not being able to walk to eventually getting back to the show. So neat.
No Mellow! Lol
She's just saying she can have kids, she thought she couldn't bc of her accident that happened 2 years ago.
Ibis doesn't have any children... yet she say :)
Ep. 1 - Ibis had to fall on purpose so that Wes would get disqualified
Ep. 2 - Ibis falls during the "swing on by" challenge bc she hits the fence but is able to try again and makes it to the platform successfully!
So far Ibis' performance is okay but I'm convinced that she can do better! IMO she's an average competitor.
I was never a huge Ibis fan especially when she was running with Kina. But this video made me like her. I feel so bad that she had such a bad accident. Thank god she wasnt injured more than she was, how scary must it have been to be paralyzed from the waist down? Poor thing. I have a new found respect for her to be able to come back from such a horrible accident and doing these shows.
Does anyone know when we'll see the shows that she was supposedly taping? Pictures have been posted here, but I figured that it might have been an online feature. Does anyone know what's up?
IBIS!!!:)
*sound of hundreds of people applauding you*
I LUV U!!!:heart:
Will you marry me?:D It doesn't hurt to ask, even if she says "no way"!;) Which i'm positively sure would be the answer i'd get.
You go on girl, and be the Latin Oprah!!! Matter of fact, you're way, WAY prettier than Oprah so you got her there.
I don't know why everyone is saying Ibis was the weakest link. She haven't messed up in any challenges this season, unless u guys are saying she was the weakest out of Johanna, Susie, and Veronica?
Ibis totally got screwed over, and I can't believe Derrick betrayed her smh. I also loved how she cursed out Johnny.
I do hope Ibis comes back on another challenge and win again =)
I love Ibis...

I think thats what everyone is trying to say. Out of the four Ibis has to be the weakest and that is only based on performance. During that rope mission Ibis was the only girl to fall off on the champions side, so yea she kind of was the weakest. But I love her, sucks that it had to be between her and Veronica. Why couldnt it be Johanna? Derek is spineless thats why he betrayed her. He has no voice on this team, he lets JEK do all of his dirty work for him and he has kissed up to them so much that they carry him on their backs.

Lol she only fell because she hit the fence but she did try again and she made it! I think Ibis and Johanna perform the same, I hope she does do another challenge =)
If anyone's seen the recent Ruins Replay, i was suprised when Ibis was venting on her blindside, Evan actually let her talk and never interrupted her one time during that particular segment. For that matter, even Kenny didn't say a word. Wow!
Ibis' interview
[URL="http://www.realitywanted.com/newsitem/2574-the-real-worldroad-rules-challenge-the-ruins-exclusive-interview-with-ibis-del-mar"]The Real World/Road Rules Challenge: The Ruins - Exclusive Interview with Ibis Del Mar[/URL]
I've always loved Ibis, but i do have to be vocal about her new official name "Ibis Del Mar". No, i'm not a big fan of that particular name but if it's her choice to be called that way, i'll respect it. As for me, she'll always be "Ibis Nieves" in my mind.
"Nieves" means "snow" in plural form. Really a beautiful name but whatever floats her boat.
I had almost forgotten how hot Ibis was and by watching G2 I realize why this is: her new hair color. She just can't get it right when it comes to hair color. She went from obvious fake blonde to punk rocker black and neither color does much for her. She needs to find a happy medium. I don't really like her with her hair black. This hair color makes her look gothic.
She needs to have her natural hair color (which I'm sure is not this black color she's sporting now) and then on top of her natural hair color get some light brown/honey highlights. She needs a lighter hair color that brings more light to her face. This will also make her look exotic again. With the hair black she looks both plain and just weird.
I was watching road rules x-treme yesterday and boy was Ibis a solid competitor! What the **** happened? I'm not saying that she sucks now but she was def a solid player 5 yrs ago.
Battle of the Sexes 2 she was good, Gauntlet 2 she was alright until those 2 challenges she messed up in towards the end, and Ibis did ok on The Ruins. Ibis isn't a sucky player, she's average.
I liked Ibis better with blonde hair, and it was obvious that wasn't her natural hair color bc her roots were brown/black. I think her natural hair color is black but like dannyboy said it's not the black that she's rocking now.
I think she would look good as a brunette or a blonde.... black is no - no.
Well she did have an accident a couple years ago that left her paralyzed so I'm sure that affected her.

Honestly, she can use that as an excuse if she wants, but she sucked hardcore on G2 too...she is only good at the eating missions.
She sucked hardcore? She only messed up in 2 freaking challenges... *sighs*
But anways Ragdoll: I already posted that interview and the video with her saying that abt 2 pages back but thanks for posting...

She was the worst performing girl on the Rookies team except for Cameran. She deserved to have gone to the Gauntlet before both Cara & Jillian - based on performance, and was only spared because she was Kina's bff. Let's not go into it though since it's off-topic from The Ruins. :)
Tv.com quoted that she was the weakest link after "CARA" left, but ur right back on topic. :-)
She performed ok on the ruins and I hope she will come back.

Where did the "Del Mar" come from? I thought I'd just not known her last name and that it was weird to hear it, but maybe it sounded weird because I'd heard her last name was Nieves as well.
When Ibis lost to Kim, i was dissapointed to see a veteran & champion loose like she lost.. i mean she had been an average player on the challenge, but i thought she should have still overcome the average challenger.. also remembering that in G2 she was, imo, an above average rookie, i came to the conclusion that it was because she was older, out of practice and lacking her previous drive.. then i read her interview and became aware of her accident, and now i have a great respect for her, not just because she decided to test her recovery in a highly demanding venture, but also because the little time between her recovery and the challenge. I know by experience that recovering your form after a forced absence is really hard, specially since sometimes you may be physically fit, but you have lost the muscle memory and your reflexes.. so Ibis, Kudos to you..
btw, i think she looks better with dark hair, as a true sexy latina, rather than just another bottle blond. = )
