The Real World: Cancun is the twenty-second season of MTV's reality television series The Real World, which focuses on a group of diverse strangers living together for several months in a different city each season, as cameras follow their lives and interpersonal relationships. It is the only season of The Real World to be filmed in Mexico.
The season featured eight people who lived in a hotel converted into a suite. It is the fourth season of The Real World to be set outside the United States, after The Real World: London in 1995, The Real World: Paris in 2003, and The Real World: Sydney in 2007. Series co-creator Jonathan Murray explained the choice of Cancun, saying, "Cancun is a good one to do after Brooklyn, which was a more gritty environment."[2]
Primary production started from January 26 to April 2009 and was not affected by the swine flu outbreak in Mexico.[3] Executive Producer Jim Johnston said, "We had stopped production before this thing reared its ugly head."[4] Consisting of 12 episodes, the season premiered June 24 of that year and was viewed by 1.4 million viewers, the smallest debut ever for a season of The Real World at the time.[5] The American synthpop band LMFAO has a guest appearance in Episode 7, which ties into the cast's work assignment.
The show's theme, heard during the opening titles, is called "Sex on the Beach" and performed by 3OH!3.[6]
Bunim-Murray Productions also shot an unscripted 2003 movie called The Real Cancun, although it was unrelated to the series. This season's suite was used by the cast of The Real World: Las Vegas (2011) for their season vacation.
Assignment
[edit]Most seasons of The Real World, beginning with its fifth season, have included the assignment of a season-long group job or task to the housemates, continued participation in which has been mandatory to remain part of the cast since the Back to New York season. The Cancun cast was assigned to work with StudentCity, an organization that helps visiting college students and, as Jonathan Murray put it, "give people a safe and fun vacation."[2][7]
The residence
[edit]
The cast stayed at the ME Cancun resort (now called Melody Maker Cancún)[8] at Boulevard Kukulkan, km. 12 in Cancun, Mexico. The resort is located in the hotel zone between the Beach Palace and Park Royal Piramides resorts. Fifteen hotel rooms were converted into the cast's suite: eleven on the second floor, and four rooms on the third floor. Production Designer Chuck Aubrey used the hotel's signature furnishings to decorate the suite, along with the vivid colors that are typically used by the Real World production to adorn the residences. The suite, like all of the resort's other 418 rooms, features an ocean and sunset lagoon view. The suite is currently available to the public under the name SuiteMe.[9][10] The suite was later used as the vacation residence for the cast of the 2011 Las Vegas season, as seen in Episode 11 of that season.[11]
Cast
[edit]The cast is made up of eight individuals, in line with the prior season. Two of the cast members, Jonna Mannion and Derek Chavez, previously worked together at a bar in Tempe, Arizona, and are the first set of cast members in a season to be acquainted with one another prior to casting, since David Burns and Nathan Blackburn from The Real World: Seattle.[7][12]
| Cast Member | Age1 | Hometown |
|---|---|---|
| Ayiiia Elizarraras | 22[7][13] | San Diego, California[14] |
| Ayiiia is a model[3] and Hooters waitress[7] who won the realworldcasting.com contest, having been chosen by viewers who voted for her with the help of a campaign run by her friends.[7] She says she has "an issue with guys" due to her last boyfriend, with whom she got pregnant, and who broke up with her a week before she had an abortion.[15] Despite having a boyfriend named Ryan and insisting she is not a lesbian, she enjoys making out with women, and becomes intimate with both Jonna and Emilee.[15][16] She is of Mexican descent, and this is her first extended trip to that country. She is not easily forgiving, and her candor is sometimes seen as vicious by her roommates, which makes living in the house difficult for her. She has a history of drug abuse and self-mutilation,[13] the latter of which recurs in Episode 5, after repeatedly coming into conflict with various other members of the cast throughout the first several episodes, in particular Joey. In the season finale she and Joey reconcile and have sex. | ||
| Bronne Bruzgo[17] | 21[18] | Yardley, Pennsylvania[18] |
| Bronne is a student at the Pennsylvania State University and a member of the Marine ROTC.[17] MTV describes him as the resident comic and life of the party, willing to do anything for a laugh.[18] A former nude model[7] and boxer on the Penn State boxing team, he struggles with boundaries, and comes into conflict with his roommates because of this.[18] In Episode 9, he is evicted from the hotel following a drunken incident in which he throws a fire extinguisher from a hotel balcony, though he is provided with nearby alternative housing by Student City. | ||
| CJ Koegel[19] | 24[7][20] | Boca Raton, Florida[7][20] |
| CJ is an NFL free agent who was the #4 punter in the country when he graduated from the University of Massachusetts Amherst.[7][19] He did well at tryouts in Las Vegas, and is awaiting the results. MTV describes him as "the All-American boy" and a "heartthrob"[21] who takes pride in his body and his appearance overall. CJ says he would be a devout Christian if it were not for his sex drive. He had a girlfriend named Danielle back home, but the temptations of Cancun presented a challenge to their relationship, and they broke up in the first episode.[7][20] | ||
| Derek Chavez | 21[12] | Phoenix, Arizona[12] |
| Derek is described by MTV as the resident "nice guy", who gets along with everyone in the house. He was raised in the small town of Loving, New Mexico[7] by his grandmother, whom he calls his mother. He is an overachiever who was president of the student council in high school, captain of the basketball and track teams, and class valedictorian. He is openly gay and single, currently uninterested in a commitment, though baggage from previous relationships continues to haunt him. He is currently pursuing a bachelor's degree in kinesiology at Arizona State University, and wants to be a physician's assistant. He worked with Jonna at a bar in Tempe, Arizona.[12] | ||
| Emilee Fitzpatrick | 21[22] | Hamilton, Massachusetts[7] |
| Emilee, like Ayiiia, is a Hooters waitress,[7] and a daughter of therapists. MTV describes her as a sensitive girl who sometimes lets her emotions get the best of her. She is working to change her views on men, sex and love, and hoping to find a man with whom she can have a monogamous relationship,[22] though she is intimate with Ayiiia in Episode 3. She suffers from severe Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, for which she takes prescription Adderall.[23] | ||
| Jasmine Reynaud | 22[24] | Friendswood, Texas[7][24] |
| Jasmine, despite her 5-foot frame, is outspoken, and exhibits what MTV describes as "a hard edge",[24] which she readily admits is the result of a Napoleon complex.[7] Despite this, she is also sensitive and vulnerable. Her friends say she has poor taste in men, often choosing womanizers who treat her badly, a motif that, according to her MTV bio, may recur in Cancun. She is a former competitive cheerleader who likes to be the center of attention, particularly among women. She enjoys partying, but may have difficulty with moderation.[24] She works as a waitress at Chili's.[7] Her interest in a coworker named Pat generates tension when he begins seeing Jonna.[25] | ||
| Joey Rozmus | 22[26] | Lawrence, Massachusetts[26] |
| Joey is a tall, skinny, tattooed man who plays guitar in a pop punk band called Late Nite Wars, and according to MTV, relentlessly pursues women in Cancun with his "bad boy charm", making a point of being the first roommate to have sex in Cancun. He has been expelled from two different high schools, and eventually dropped out of a third. He has a past history with excessive drinking. He is passionate about the arts, and enjoys drawing, tattooing, writing poetry, and creating music. He claims to have seen a UFO.[26][27] He experiences personality conflict with the women in the first several episodes, and in particular with Ayiiia. He expresses a dislike for the cast's season assignment and his superiors, and after repeatedly missing shifts in episodes 6 and 7, he is fired and sent home in the latter episode. He returns, however, at the end of episode 11, during which he makes up with Ayiiia and has sex with her.[28] | ||
| Jonna Mannion | 20[29] | Tempe, Arizona[29] |
| Jonna is a multi-racial woman who has lived a difficult life, having been put in foster care at age four with a strict religious family, adopted by her caseworker at nine, and kicked out when she turned 18, but she intends to make the best of life as a hairdresser. She struggles between her boyfriend,[29] Matt,[7] back home and the temptations of Cancun, as well as her own tendencies toward flirtation and promiscuity.[29] She worked with Derek at a bar in Tempe, Arizona.[12] Before joining the show, Jonna, along with her partner Aaron, won the first season of the Discovery Kids competition teenage reality show, Endurance.[3] Her behavior with men generates tension between her and the other women, in particular her relationship with Pat, a man that Jasmine was strongly attracted to, which culminates in a threesome between Jonna, Pat and Ayiiia in Episode 10. | ||
