Surreal Life Fame Gamers Boo-hoo about Getting B-listed
Surreal Life Fame Gamers Boo-hoo about Getting B-listed by Roxanne McDonald
 |
The hardest, most humiliating part of competing on the all-star version of The Surreal Life is landing on the B List. But as one of them acknowledges, they will all end up going back to their real lives anyway, so who cares? |
Still, the contestants are taking their fate on Surreal Life Fame Games quite seriously:
Chyna Doll gets terribly unnerved when she gets the fewest picks of her as one to pose with fans.
Ron Jeremy is indignant when his acting talents (which he boasts include a history of so many hundreds of “feature” films?) are graded harshly (he is like fifth worst in this acting competition the show designs for the last A-List B-List competition).
Vern Troyer sulks for the first three weeks—either because he has been coerced into replacing Jordan Knight (when he has to leave due to a death in the family) or because he is the first, along with Chyna, to be exiled to the B-List wing of the mansion…where, as Robin Leach describes it, the B-listers will enjoy shabby surroundings, substandard
amenities, and the lingering stench of mediocrity.
And Brigitte takes the slight of the A-listers getting better treatment at the casinos, combined with a toe tag joke played on her by Ron while she is sleeping, as slight enough to impel her right out the door.
Nice guy Rob Van Winkle, however, convinces Brigitte to stay in the game. Ron apologizes for the joke (despite how he thinks Brigitte might just not get “American” humor), and Ron offers her some of his poker chips when she is sulking and first threatening to leave The Palms. (The A-listers got a tee-shirt, a hat, and a hundred dollars’ worth of chips; the b-listers got a shirt and a hat. The A-listers,
who ride in a separate van, got front-door escorting into the casino. The B-listers were left in their B-list van.)
And either Pepa or Tracy Bingham—I had my head down when she was interviewing—admits that while the whole Surreal Life Fame Game is just that, a game, and while it is frustrating (Chyna’s dogs and Chyna and Brigitte keep her up all night), it is only a temporary humiliation…as after all, they can soon all go back to their “real” lives, back to “reality”.
