I'm looking forward to the open calls again! So far none in Chicago :( so that's not good. I went in for 23, was the only one picked from my table to go and fill out the app, but unfortunately didn't make it past the superlong bio portion. I know i filled out my bio with good stuff, so i duno what happened. Hopefully this year I'll advance further....Since then i have to wonder, do they actually look in the big bio or just go by your short answer at the beginning? I was first in line last time, I think maybe first is cursed, and if you come in later in the day you're fresh in their head....that's just my thoughts.
What kind of stuff do you have to fill out on the sheet if you get selected? Are there like questions on it? I got a VIP pass in my email so I'm heading to a casting call in upcoming weeks and just want to be aware of what I should look out for.

Actually, if you will do a search for a thread called Casting Secrets, you will find a ton of information about everything.
Those of you who got VIP passes--roughly how long did it take for you to get a response? The only way I'm going to the DC casting is if I get a VIP pass (I hate lines), so I'm curious.
OKLAHOMA CITY!!!!!! haha no way we only have like 3 clubs here and the rest are stripper bars. Maybe somewhere like dallas houston or Phoniex Arizona Tokyo Somewhere in US would be better than going out of the country would be better

I would love if they casted someone who was gay/bi-sexual that is currently in the army for this season. It would be incredibly interesting if that were to ever hit my TV set. I hope BMP casts a person that matches these qualities for this season. I think it would be even better if that person had an extremely religious family. Their struggles shown as a documentary form (A Real World season) will have so much impact on the viewers, IMHO. Also, the fact that gays/bisexuals are not allowed to be enrolled in the army makes the story all the more powerful. Just throwing that out there, if BMP ever were to cast a person with these matching qualities, then they can count me in as a viewer! This is what Real World is missing nowadays. Substance. Brooklyn was a huge step up and D.C is supposed to be an incredible season as well, but I would like to see the seasons with substance to continue! If a person with these qualities were to ever audition for this program and BMP were to not cast them, then that would be a great opportunity flushed down the toilet. Mix in a strong Islam, and that would be a great show.
Blanky, that's not possible because of don't ask, don't tell. That person would have to be willing to jeopardize, or even end their career with the military if they chose to come out on national television as a homosexual soldier. I know that it's not a fair or ethical policy to essentially ban soldiers from coming out publicly (or in any way that would be of knowledge to the military), but as of right now, that's the policy. If the person had previously been in the military, then it would be a different story because they no longer have a career with the military.

Are those the final castings? Are there not going to be anymore? I find it rather strange there is no LA casting... or even a California one at that. Hmm... do we know if there will be a few more?
They also aren't casting in Atlanta AT ALL -- normally they will list it in the recruiting cities...but this year, they don't even have basic staff there. I wonder if that's a sign at their filming location?? ;-) Anyways, they'll probably post some more locations for open casting calls. But if there's a location semi-near you, I would go ahead and send in an email to see about getting a pass.

Typically, they at least take submissions from Atlanta...even if they don't do an open call there...but this year, they don't even have it posted as a city they are casting from at all. I just found that odd. I would love to see them in Vancouver for the Olympics, but I think that means the entire season would be cold like in Paris. I bet they go someplace warmer...like Atlanta. Who knows...I change my mind all the time. ha. It's fun to speculate.

I think it would be good if they did it in Savannah too, it's a very scenic city.
For some reason I think it's going to be in another Texas city--Dallas or Houston.
We'll all have better guesses once they put out what they who they want to cast for the season, meaning: spanish speaking, disabled, veterns, etc etc. I definitely interested to see the direction BMP is going to go. A little more serious like Brooklyn and DC or fun like Hollywood and Cancun or a hyrbrid of both?? My gut tells me they are going to be looking for artists of various types with an interesting story or two thrown in there. And I really wish they were heading to Montreal, Portland, or Back to San Fran. But I definitely wouldn't be surprised to see Atlanta, Charleston, or Nashville in the mix either.
Word on the street is that BMP is not looking to make RW24 a serious story season. The packets are about the same length as they were for Cancun and about 30 questions short of what they were for DC. I'm shifting my bets back towards the south for the location -- Atlanta, Orlando, Charleston, Nashville, Dallas, Houston. Anyone want to take bets on the locations? ;-)

Karamo's hott but he was a jack*** on his season.
Hey vevmo! I will be attending a casting call saturday the 10th and I would like to know if anyone has gone to one already and remembers some questions that they ask you on the short answer form. I remember most embarrassing moment and that's about it. Good luck to all who go. Hopefully someone from Vevmo will get a spot!
I went to one a few days ago I remember most of the app it consist of three pages front page is the questions. Top part of the page is simple stuff contact info height and weight etc. Then the questions I remember most of them there the following: Are you currently in a relationship where does it stand? What kind of qualities do you find intresting in yourself? What is the most unsual thing about you? What high school and college have you attended? What words would describe yourself? What words would your closest friends describe you as? What qualities do you look for in a roommate?what is your current relationship with your parents? What is the biggest issue facing your life at the moment? What career goals or life aspirations do you have will you pursue them while on the show? Why do you want to be on the Real World?. SECOND page is not for you its for casting directors they check off what stuff(clothes) you were wearing during the audition. Third page is basically your signing that you wont talk about casting and etc(LOL). NOW the next part is the group interview they make your group interact basically ask each other questions and then they make you introduce yourself. THEY ask your thoughts on the VMA's,Lady Gaga,Kanye and then they ask if you be stranded on a island what celeb and what kind of food would you choose to have. Before you leave they dismiss you one by one and as you walk out they ask of you one word that describe yourself.
