Shove gets Trisha sent home from 'Real World Sydney'

From guest blogger John-John Williams IV:

What is it about Real World and its spinoff Road Rules that breeds violence or booted cast members?

Remember when David got kicked out of the Real World: Los Angeles house for “violating” Tami? (Give me a break. I’ll always hate Beth S. for the way she instigated that one.)

How about when Stephen  -- the black, “straight,” Jewish convert -- slapped Irene in the face during Real World: Seattle? (Check out this court paperwork here detailing his 2002 prostitution arrest.)

Who could forget that memorable throwdown between Abram “the moron from Montana” and Donell during Road Rules: South Pacific?

The most recent altercation involves Trisha and Parisa on Real World: Sydney. The pair have been at each other’s throats for most of the season. Last week, things reached a boiling point when Trisha lashed out and pushed Parisa onto the ground. (The cause? A combination of bad mouthing and clucking over phone use.)

After picking herself up from the floor, Parisa immediately got on the phone with Real World producers and informed them of the incident. She told the producers that they either kick Trisha out of the house or she will come to blows with her housemate.

Parisa was given the opportunity to chose whether to keep Trisha in the house. Guess what? Parisa gave Trisha the boot. Don’t let the door hit you where the good Lord split you …

Trisha’s apology was lame — at best – and was annoying to say the least. She didn’t mean it. It was insincere. I think Parisa saw right through all that Maybelline that was on the verge of running down her face. (I know I’m hamming it up a little bit. Work with me, people.)

Anywho, Trisha has now gone down in MTV history with the rest of the past cast members to be shown the door. Did she deserve it?

Also, I want to know your favorite Real World/Road Rules fights? There are so many people to chose from? I mean they’ve had like a gazillion casts …

Real World is already several episodes into the new Hollywood season. No comments?

SKK: I'm trying, here, but Idol and DWTS (and my other jobs at the paper) are keeping me pretty busy. Working on catching up, though.
