'The Real World' is back but this time around, it is not airing on MTV. The iconic, and original reality series, will actually air on Facebook Watch for the new season and be available for viewing in the afternoon. The setting is the now-controversial Atlanta, Georgia, which makes one wonder if they would have still filmed there if the bans had gone into effect prior to filming. The same premise still remains: seven strangers living in a house but as they have done over the past several seasons, there is always some sort of twist to keep up with the more tantalizing reality shows. So, ready to meet the cast who will be thrown into a home together and forced to work through their issues with cameras watching 24/7?

-Arley, 21: she is an official dreamer (DACA), Arley is also a mom to a 4-year-old, which we have not really seen before. Seeing how she will handle being away from her son will be interesting but how she handles living with a Republican will also be a sight as she was unable to become a nurse due to her status as a dreamer.
-Dondre, 25: the Republican! But, he also has a back story. He is a Trump supporter and apparently loud and proud but also, African-American and pansexual so he is kind of a mixed bag. Maybe Arley can open his eyes a bit. 
-Clint, 28: Instagram famous, he has hopes of a bigger life though he is supposed to go home and take over his conservative family's farming business. Can the show help him escape his fate?
-Justin, 26: a Masters student, he is focused on African-American Studies so I am sure he will have a thing or two to say to Dondre about his beliefs. He also has a girlfriend who lives far away but will there be temptation in Hotlanta? 
-Meagan, 23: a Southern belle, she is a virgin, waiting for marriage. What will she think of young mother, Arley?
-Tovah, 26: taking her childhood trauma and turning it around, she is now a caseworker for CPS and wants to open a foster home. Her traumas will come out in the show, for sure and she will form bonds with the cast and open some eyes. 
-Yasmin, 27: a feminist who identifies as pansexual, she left her conservative identity behind so I can see her clashing but in a good way. 

 This is a far cry from the original show where the ages were 18-25 and it was on MTV but hey, change is good. You can catch it on Facebook Watch premiering June 13th at 12pm ET.

A 'Jerseylicious' Split!

  photo courtesy of imdb.com When you were on a semi-successful reality show, especially as one of the key players, and everyone watched your love story unfold, it only makes sense they will want to keep following you after the series has ended. Such has been the case for 'Jerseylicious' star, Tracy DiMarco , who always went head-to-head with Olivia Blois-Sharpe on the show based around the never-ending drama at the Jersey salon, The Gatsby. Eventually, DiMarco got her happily ever after when she married Corey Epstein in her dream wedding. She continued to pursue her passion, have three kids, develop a wildly successful podcast, and work on clothing and accessories.  But, when you are in the public eye, boasting 541K followers on Instagram , almost everything you do is up for scrutiny. Fans (and haters) began to notice a lack of presence when it came to her husband, Corey and questioned if their marriage was okay. There is an abundance of photos of daughters, Skylar and

'The Real L Word' Cast- Where Are They Now?

  photo courtesy of amazon.com With the return of the hit Showtime series, 'The L Word,' it makes fans of the original show and ultimate reality spinoff, 'The Real L Word,' quite nostalgic. Actors can keep acting but reality stars can drift off into the clouds after their 15 minutes of fame are over. TRLW lasted three seasons with a revolving door of lesbians who soon became like friends and family. Initially based in California, the show followed the lives of a handful of gay women, somehow intertwined in life, and what it was like to date, fall in love, have sex, try to make babies, propose, be successful, and so much more. By the final season, the series went bi-coastal, utilizing NYC as a playground, as well. The show ended in 2012 with two weddings and a lot of tears. So, where are they now? Get ready to catch up with our fave reality celesbians! - Whitney Mixter : the player of the series, she may have hooked up with almost every member of the cast. But,
