I really liked Alex... she reminded me of a really good friend of mine.. but RW was just not for her. She'd fit it with maybe one of the 90s casts or just a season that wasn't all about getting drunk and partying.
Alex to me is AMAZING. She wasn't the best TV but I still love her dearly. She has done so much with her life... born and raised without electricity in Zimbabwe, started an AIDS-relief foundation as a child, became the first black female gymnast to represent Zimbabwe and snuck onto the team at 12 years old (minimum was 13), was horribly bullied and abused from the gymnastics team because she was black, studied calculus at age 10, graduated high school at age 14, studied civil engineering at Stanford, made her own music, and did the Real World. Like what a life! She is so humble and inspiring.

Agreed she's lived an impressive life, but she was not great for the real world and came off way too normal for nearly any season of this show. I'd much rather have seen her on a Road Rules season or not at all. Sweet girl though.
Callie was a sweet, cute girl. But again, that doesn’t always translate to the most interesting roommate. However, I think Callie was kind of a breath of fresh air because she just seemed like a kind of normal girl you could hang out with (like Baya in that regard) and she wasn’t supermodel thin like we’ve come to expect from RW casts (especially considering the season prior was Cancun). With that said, Callie did have some body issues during her season, specifically when Ty told her she could never pose for Playboy. She also actually tried to make something of herself while in DC, doing photography, but honestly I mostly only remember that because she would say “fer-tography”.
Ugh, full disclosure. I hated Josh. He spent the season casually cheating on his girlfriend and then getting pissed at people for calling him out on cheating on his girlfriend. Plus, he and Erika had this weird thing where they tried to one-up each other with singing (Wicked Liquid, anyone??) but really they were both kind of terrible I think. Anyways, he wasn’t particularly memorable.
So, people may think Ashley is ranked too low but sorry, she was a SNOOZE on her season. I think she was cast to be “the hot one” but she never showed even an ounce of personality on the show. She shacked up with Zach pretty much right away and then basically became his puppet. She didn’t appear to have a mind of her own. Like, I feel like she was conservative but I have no idea if she actually was or just was because of Zach. She was at her best when she was not with Zach and sometimes I actually felt bad for her because it seemed like she wished she was included more with the “Crab Circle”. I liked Ashley more on her challenge season but she really was just…there on her season.
Laura was basically the Ashley K of her season but she showed a little more personality. She shacked up with Trey right away and then got tangled into a weird love-triangle with his ex GF (and then they became friends? I don’t know this season was weird guys). She became a doormat for Trey who treated her pretty shitty during the season. Honestly, I think Laura seems like she’s probably a cool chick and would’ve been a fun castmate had she remained single during her season. But she didn’t, so she’s ranked 67th.
Ah, bird. I was always a little perplexed by her. I feel like she was cast to be the voice of reason on her season but she was a little nutty herself. I think more times than not she probably was the most neutral person in the house, but she spent most of her time all up in everyone’s business. I mostly remember her telling point-blank to Jessica that she doesn’t like her, which I was kinda like DAMN but I kind of got it tbh. But remember when her BF came to visit and she totally had a meltdown? That was crazy but I can’t exactly remember what it was about. Anyways, my favorite thing about Anastasia was her klepto nature when it came to traffic signs. That shit was funny.
Hints for 65-61: A couple singers, an athlete, and a baby daddy.
OMG DC! Callie definetly was normal and Josh had that ****** up situation(that he caused) with his girfriend. I remember Ashley and Emily almost told his girl what he was doing when she came to town.
You know what's odd about Laura? In the first episode I remember her speaking about her being adopted and wanting to find her real parents but that just didn't go anywhere.
Okay okay, I know you're probably thinking Alex should be ranked lower (as some of you have pointed out), and you may be right. She wasn't particularly entertaining but there was something interesting about her. Like, I can't explain it, I just LIKED when she was on screen. She was captivating to me and I wanted to see more of her. I didn't care about her boyfriend issues or whatever, but she had one of the better "singer" storylines. I actually have the song "Beggar" on my ipod and listen to it a good amount. I'm probably cheating a bit here ranking her a little higher than maybe she deserves, but I think it says something that I was clamoring for more of her. She was unfortunate in that she was cast in arguably the worst season of this era (and maybe all time).
Oh Jason, corny corny Jason. He seems like a really good guy but he really didn't add much. This poor guy got cast with 6 absolute psychopaths, but he was guilty of it himself. He and Nicole had a pretty cute friendship until they didn't because she didn't clean up a mess or something I forget. He had a tendency to take things a little far when he actually DID decide to argue. Also, he met his dad for the first time on the show which would normally make something more interesting but in reality it was kind of an anti-climactic moment. Maybe because it was in every preview since the beginning of the season.
I feel like Sahar is unfairly singled out as the most boring roommate from her RW season but the fact is she had more screentime and storylines than people seem to remember. She was the only roommate who would call Ryan her friend (for a time at least), she had a kinda sorta romance with Eric, and she had a boyfriend who from what I could tell treated her like shit but she didn't seem to think so. But she also was pretty outspoken, specifically against Knight who would constantly tease her about her weight and sideburns. He always meant it in good fun, and she would realize that but for a time it was a major source of tension in the house. She also had a nice voice, but I did not care about her singing storyline.
I really wanted to like Nicole, and sometimes I really did like Nicole, but man she made it hard. She was normal compared to most of the other crazies in her house, but I couldn't stand the way she tried to have it both ways with the guys and girls, and her double standards when it came to issues with the guys and the girls. She was always so quick to defend walking timebomb Bruno and so quick to blame walking timebomb Sylvia for doing essentially the same thing. Plus, on a season where people were forced to live with enemies, exes, meet their dad for the first time, and deal with their past heroin addiction, they had Nicole's 2 sisters who she was GREAT friends with visit. Like, why was she chosen for this particular season?? And her put-on accent rubbed me the wrong way (her sisters even called her out on it).
Honestly, CJ was boring on his season. I feel like people remember him more fondly than he deserves because he was better on his 2 challenge seasons, but he was actually kind of a secret ****** on his season. Now, I can only imagine that Ayiiia was not an easy person to live with, but CJ was often just straight up ******* to her for no reason except that it was the "cool" thing to do. He just followed Joey's lead. He probably thought he didn't do anything bad because he let Joey do all the dirty work. He also had terrible game and a "piglet" hehe. I like CJ more now, but wasn't crazy about him on his season and he didn't do enough that was memorable to warrant a better ranking.
Hints for 60-56: 3 of the biggest drama queens of this era
Nicole's sisters weren't her skeleton, she's her skeleton. Her sisters getting married and leaving were a reminder of her fear of commitment and her fear of being alone. She wants love like they have, but she's scared so she'd rather just hookup with random girls instead of something real. Her sisters getting married and leaving reminds her she'll be alone, and it's because she doesn't let people in. It's not as simple as "oh her sisters are there, that's lame " they very well can't bring Nicole's fears in as a skeleton so they brought people who remind her of that.
Drama Queen #1 from the hints. Straight up: Jessica is super annoying to me. Her voice is like nails on a chalkboard and she had a special way of making everything about her at all times. She spent her time in Portland creating drama for herself especially against Jordan. Honestly, I DESPISED Jordan during the first half of RW Portland and the idea of him being put in his place was great to me in theory, but Jessica was no better than Jordan and quite frankly I couldn't root for her. Also, remember when she like put up picture frames of her and that guy she went on 1 date with? Jessica also belongs on a very dubious list of people who keep getting invited to do challenges despite adding hardly anything to their show. Other members of this club include Jenna, Tyrie, Dunbar, and Adam King. With all that said, Jessica deserves a spot on this list for that time she rapped with Marlon on "******* be thirsty and junk" Because real talk, that was funny.
Drama Queen #2 from the hints. Emilee was definitely a drama queen on her season, but the reality is that her most memorable moments occurred after her season or just straight up on Twitter. Because I am ranking people based on their seasons, that's why she ranks relatively low. She didn't get a lot of screentime during her season. She started off as someone who it seemed was gonna be a major player because of her hookup with Ayiiia and then their major argument afterwards, but then she sort of floundered in the background. The entire second half of the season was dedicated to the Jonna/Jasmine/Pat triangle so Emilee was mostly on the sidelines. But still, her drunkenly stomping all over Bronne's zombie magazines was kinda hilarious in a really stupid "why do I think this is funny?" kind of way.
This ******* dweeb. Jay spent his entire season getting girls numbers on the DL but claiming he would "never do anything about it" because he was with Jenna but he just liked to flirt. That shit's weird, man. First of all, I'm sorry I don't see what these girls see in Jay that he was apparently cheating on Jenna regularly with multiple different girls. And then he had the audacity to lie about it and somehow put it on Jenna because there was "no label". That no label stuff is straight up BS. Like you guys have been together for X amount of years, you're BF/GF. Deal with it. The only time I liked Jamie was when she called Jay out on his bullshit. With all that said, Jay did have a very touching episode when his mother passed away which was genuinely very sad because in the few glimpses we got, you could tell they adored each other.
Drama Queen #3 from the hints. Oh Erika, she may have wrote the book on being a drama queen. She and Ashley L were basically secretly competing over who could be the biggest drama queen in the house. Erika's specialty was crying about how nobody wants to do what she wants to do, and how Josh has a terrible voice and she would know because hers is fantastic (lol, k) and crying about missing her boyfriend and how everyone is a bad friend to her, and of course lowkey rubbing in her family life and then crying about being called a brat. She eventually left because it was just too much for her, and quite frankly it was too much for us too. People may forget about this now, but long before her season aired we all heard a bunch of crazy stories about Erika faking that she had cancer in high school and all this other shit. It never really got brought up on the show, but people don't forget.
You could argue that Devyn should be Drama Queen #4 in this list, but while she is a drama queen, she's the good kind if that makes sense. She was MOSTLY harmless on her season. Poor girl had to deal with mice on her bed and shit. She spent a lot of time flirting with Scott and talking about how she likes to date older men (she did the whole gold-digger thing long before Nia and she made it look good). Truth is, Devyn didn't add a whole lot to her season besides juggle some guys around and have a few arguments about the boys vs. girls dynamic in the house. She will probably be more fondly remembered for her challenge appearances.
Hints for 60-56: Honestly, more drama queens. At least one person in the next batch of people was not on their entire season.
Again, I should re-iterate though that she made out with her OWN mom, in a three-way makeout session.
Oh.. I read that as she made out with another person's/Nate's mother.
LMAOOO. I wouldn't do it like that, that's for sure.
And no. Jenna did not get better on the challenge. She's just as useless on there as she was on The Real World.
Bye @ this
When did Priscilla make out with her mom? I don't even remember Nate meeting her mom..
It was the episode they celebrate the 4th of july
How the hell has SD2 Alex not made the list yet??
I agree so far, it's all the irrelevant people lmao
I really liked Alex... she reminded me of a really good friend of mine.. but RW was just not for her. She'd fit it with maybe one of the 90s casts or just a season that wasn't all about getting drunk and partying.

Wait that ***** had a threesome with her mom! That's disgusting
she was only 19 too
I think they triple kissed with Sam...but yeah...still pretty ******* gross.
Agreed she's lived an impressive life, but she was not great for the real world and came off way too normal for nearly any season of this show. I'd much rather have seen her on a Road Rules season or not at all. Sweet girl though.
