'The Real World Homecoming: New Orleans' Review

credit: Instagram In 2000, seven strangers moved into the Belfort mansion in New Orleans, Louisiana. They were all extremely diverse yet formed incredibly amazing bonds that were supposed to last a lifetime. That did not happen but The Real World Season 9 did and it shook MTV. Fans loved the season, the cast, the house, the location- it literally had it all. As an almost seventeen-year-old, I had never been more mystified by a place in my life that was not Disney World. Looking into colleges that specialized in hotel management, the University of New Orleans did just that so seeing this RW helped me feel so much more secure and connected. I had been given a personal tour thanks to Danny, Melissa, Julie, Jamie, David, Kelley, and Matt. Aside from Jamie and David, everyone left with these insane bonds. *Quick refresher: they lived in the house, worked at a local cable access channel, Julie was Mormon and went to BYU so had no idea if she could go back to school, Kelley met a resident and...

ICYMI: 'The Real World Homecoming' Episode 3 Recap!

Credit: MTV   Last week on 'The Real World Homecoming,' Eric was desperate to do anything he could to get the Covid virus out of his body and get over to the loft. It was so hard for him to see his former roomies making new memories without him. But, the memories they were about to make were not the best.

Eventually, a clip from their time on the show came up when talking about racial equality. It was assumed it would be the one of Julie and Kevin but it was Becky and Kevin. He felt she had a lot of white privilege. As they revisit the situation now, just as prevalent, it seemed Becky just was not listening. Her white privilege showed even more as they show her talking about her lifestyle and all of her travels. She lives the life of the upper-class. Should she have to apologize fo...

ICYMI: 'The Real World Homecoming' Episode 2

  Credit: MTV It was finally time for episode two of 'The Real World Homecoming ' and after the premiere episode, we were so ready for more. Now that the six roomies know where they are staying and have slightly settled in, it was time to start getting back into action. Eric is still in quarantined in his hotel room but is requesting daily testing. He wants to get back to the loft for at least one day to see his old housemates. The first test we saw him take was still positive so he decided to take an ice bath. He has been working with shamans and such so he is very in touch with his body so he will do whatever must be done to rid himself of Covid.  At the loft, Heather still has a lot of work she does on the daily. She hosts three shows every day and it does not stop just because she is back on the show. Everyone is impressed with her hustle and she is reflecting with Kevin. They were opposites back in 1992. He grew up without a dad and was working for Vibe while she went to ...
