Today's Blind Items

How about a nice easy one? This reality show couple have always been unique. They have stayed together when countless others have tired and failed at the same game. Why did this one couple have so much luck and success when others have failed? They made millions in the process and to date no one else has been able to match their luck. The reason? Prior to their "meeting," they had already been dating for over a year.

Woodsy_gal said...

MaryMQC said...

um............ how about rob and amber? weren't they both all stars when they met? maybe they had met at a function or something?

RenoBlondee said...

Trista and Ryan FTW.

crila16 said...

Trista and Ryan. Definitely. That show is such a fake.

Seachica said...

Oooh, GREAT gossip about Trista & Ryan (I think it's them). How did they originally meet?

Rob and Amber could easily have met a year prior to All Stars, since they were both former Survivor contestants and would run in those circles. However, what countless others have tried and failed at the same game? Survivor is not a game of relationships. However, I could totally see the early Bachelorette producers wanting to ensure success for their then young show, by asking Trista to provide the name of a guy or two.

RocketQueen said...

Obv Trista and Ryan. Ugh I can't STAND THAT SHOW! Fakest show ever.

ms snarky said...

I think it's Rob and Amber, because of the inference of repeated success at reality games.

story said...

Tori & Dean.

Miss X said...

I thought Trista & Ryan, too. I don't see how this could be anyone else. While I like them together, this is just weird and manipulative on the part of ABC/The Bachelorette.

Rose said...

Trista & Ryan are a good guess, especially since so many other couples would apply to Bachelor/ette and not something like Survivor. Although I did think of Ethan Zahn and his girlfriend.

I remember that Trista or Jen got to help pick the tapes for her show but I'm leaning towards it being Jen. Was Trista's season really that long after the original Bachelor? The only thing throwing me off is the time and if she would really have a chance to meet him given he lived in Colorado.

Sylvia said...

I couldn't remember their names but yes, I also feel it's Trista & Ryan.

author said...

I like the tori and dean guess

cara said...

I am not sure Trista and Ryan have made "millions" though.

Jeri said...

I like Trista & Ryan but I think Amber & Rob have made more money.

Laurel said...

What about Khloe Kardashian and her husband? They've made a lot of money.

crila16 said...

No...still think Ryan and Trista. What makes me think it's them is that no other couple on the Bachelor or Bachelorette has ever last...and in the blog, Enty says "countless others have tired and failed at the same game". It has to be a game focused on finding Love...and everyone but this couple has failed. Can't be Amber and Rob. Survivor is a show based on winning money...and there is always a winner at the end. Survivor isn't based on love with a human...only love for the money.

Also, can't be the Kardashians...their show is based on stupidity, not love.

cara said...

That would mean Trista and Ryan started dating right after the first Bachelor ended. How would they have met?

Basil said...

Sure Amber and Rob have probably made more money, but would anyone be shocked to know that Survivor cooked up some "love at first site on the island". It was obvious they knew each other before All-Stars,and at least Lex knew they were dating.

So gotta be Trista and Ryan. I actually watched that series and Trista pretty much had her mind made up from the first episode, so yeah, I could see them as an already coupled pair that the producers slotted in to make the fairy tale come true.

Basil said...

ETA, they probably did make millions from this. Their wedding paid them a million, not to mention various magazine covers and baby pictures etc.

mingreader said...

Amber and Boston Rob, from Survivor and Amazing Race plus wedding pics. Good call.

bandy said...

Ozzy and Sharon?

MC said...

I think it's Rob and Amber. They've each won survivor right? As well as been on Amazing Race and a couple of other seasons of Survivor where Rob came close but lost.

I think the "when countless others have tried and failed at the same game" line is just a general reference to all of the failed reality show romances out there.

ecua said...

Giuliana DiPandi and Bill Rancic?

mazemerizing said...

If it is Ryan and Trista, then why haven't The Bachelor/Bachelorette producers tried this setup again? I think it's one of the Survivor couples, either Rob and Amber or Ethan and whatever her name is. Both were on Survivor and Amazing Race, and all four are Survivor winners.

ThisIKnow said...

Trista was the runner up in the first Bachelor. She was very upset because Andrew? misled her and slept with her and then he picked the other girl. Thus she became the first Bachelorette.

I vote for Ethan and his fiance from Survivor.

Unknown said...

I think it is Rob and Amber. They were totally hosed on Amazing Race. I can't believe I know that.

Linnea said...

What does totally hosed mean?

Gotta be Trista and Ryan. Why would anyone care if someone else had met a year before? That makes no sense, it has to be a relationship reality show.

ALSO, kind of unrelated but are there any Househunters/Househunters International fans here? Just found out that that, too, is totally fake. The couple needs to have bought a house already (sometimes they have even lived in it for years) and then the crew comes in, takes them around and give them 500 bucks. How disappointing! (and yes I am naive)

Lelaina Pierce said...

@linnea - Really?? I know someone that appeared on that show! I need to get the scoop! The people on those shows drive me nuts!

I immediately though Trista/Ryan...BUT I'm trying to figure how they would have met? ABC spent over $3 mil on their wedding. Was the network IN on it??

Linnea said...

Yeah, here it is
http://hookedonhouses.net/2010/06/02/the-truth-about-house-hunters-on-hgtv/

And I had a friend that was on there, too... thats how I came to know about it

Dorothy said...

Yard Crashers is also fake. Couples send in tapes months in advance to get selected. The whole being picked at random in the hardware store is a sham.

Lelaina Pierce said...

@linnea - Wow. I don't know why I'm surprised. I read awhile back that Storage Wars was fake, also...

@renay83 - Argh! When I was renovating my last house, I spent an ENORMOUS time at home improvement stores, hoping I'd run into Ahmed. I should have been suspect though. They always had all these friends (like 10+) show up at the last minute to do yard work?

Linnea said...

nooo not storage wars! :)

fairy said...

Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt? LOL

mooshki said...

Househunters wouldn't make any sense if it was "real." I doubt they could find many people who would be willing to look at only three places. If it were real, you'd have a crapload of people saying "none of the above." I only looked at houses for one day when I was buying, and I saw 12 places.

Linnea said...

Yeah, I just always assumed they looked at MORE than three and then they narrowed it down - but I never thought they had actually bought one ahead of time...

Robert said...

@MJ+Y=M: Every time I see your avatar, I try to flick that little bug off of my goddam monitor!

I wish Evan and his fiancee (Jenna?) the best of luck beating his recent cancer flare up. He's such a good guy and it really looked like he had it beat.

People are praying for you.

Peridot said...

What about Khloe and Lamar?

plot said...

I don't care if House Hunters International is rigged or not. What's important is seeing the insides of houses in foreign places. Unlike most viewers, I get bored with all the beach front shows and prefer the far flung homes I've never seen before.

Who cares if the buyers are already in escrow on a place! I get to see 3 places that exhibit some of the quirks and aesthetics of living in Hanoi or Nairobi.

I bet most viewers don't care much either.

Halfmad said...

I just did a video edit with a guy who used to edit reality shows. They are COMPLETELY fake. He would get handed a ton of footage with an instruction to "make a story" out of it. He said he would have a screen of ten different reaction shots and would pick and choose to see what made the story more interesting. Things were improvised, but not real. They would tell two leads, "Okay, you will come in and say xyz, and then YOU will get upset about it and you'll have a fight." And then shoot it. So weird!
