Behind the Screen: The Challenge: Free Agents - Jemmye Carroll

For over two decades, MTV's The Challenge has been the proving ground where reality TV's fiercest competitors come to cement their legacies. What started as a Real World/Road Rules spinoff has evolved into one of the most physically and mentally demanding competition series on television.

The franchise's expansion — with spinoffs in the USA, UK, Argentina, and Australia — speaks to a global appetite for the brand of cutthroat competition and alliance-driven gameplay that Vevmo's community has been tracking since 2007.

She's better than Knight, I suppose...

It's crazy to me how certain girls cannot make the finals for their life but Jemmye can say she made the final challenge on her 2nd try...

The Challenge: Free Agents - Jemmye Carroll

Youssarian ·

Jemmye proved to be a true competitor on Rivals II, reaching the finals in only her second Challenge. The epitome of "work hard, play hard," this former Division I athlete is ready to top last season's performance. She explains, "At this point, the only thing that's acceptable is first or second. If I don't get first or second, then I didn't do what I came here to do." ******** with confidence, Jemmye will take on the most daredevil tasks in challenges and has no fear when it comes to elimination rounds, "I've been to enough eliminations at this point where I'll go in against whoever, but I'm not gonna count any of these females out."

Eh. She's better than Knight, I suppose. So, that's a plus.

Camila does not have the ability to carry anyone & I certainly do not remember her carrying Jemmye last season.

I wouldn't say carry, but she definitely wouldn't have seen a final without someone as strong as Camila. She did everything for them in the Blind Leading The Blind mission. Camila also would do quite well in certain portions of the mission, but would be held back by Jemmye. When Jemmye took the lead, things didn't go well... People also said Camila had to babysit Jemmye with her constant instigating.
nmanderson#7
I agree with you. Jemmye's contribution to that team was to be the troublemaker in the house. Remember when she went to Aneesa and stirred up what happened with Trishelle? And she did the same thing with Diem. Camilla did carry her to the puzzle challenge in the Final. Neither one could complete the first one.

I will welcome Jemmye every challenge is someone throws ketchup on her every challenge.

I love Jemmye. She is one of my favorite girls from the real world. I don't understand why everyone hates her so much. I don't think she is that bad of a competitor.

I actually felt bad for her because I also HATE ketchup. I can't even smell it, it makes me want to puke.

I don't understand the hate either. Everyone says she is so fake and is a super instigator. I can see why people call her fake, but if someone is talking **** about me I would like to know.

Um, ok, Jemmye isn't a bad competitor but since when is she a division 1 athlete?

She isn't. I posted it either a few pages back here or in the spoiler thread...she played intramural at a Division I school (Mississippi State). So if you want to get really technical she played softball at a D1 school...but she's not a D1 athlete.

I agree with that. I even laughed out loud at that...
Challenge 17#16
I hate everyone about Jemmy the only reason I'm glad she's back is so she can get destroyed in a elimination
TeamLandon#17
The only way Camila really helped her out last season was by being in an alliance with Emily, Diem, and Johnny... competitively, sure Camila's better but she's not strong enough to make up for what Jemmye lacked. She's not that strong. So when Jemmye sucked, the team sucked. I understand why she was asked to be back, but I just can't like anyone from NOLA (other than Ryan L of course).
PinkRose#18
Jemmye is tough as people make her seem to be, she slow down camila rewatch Rivals 2 lol She is bestfriends with everybody and she ''keeps it real '' but she is the fakest of them all (Perfect example of this: that scene from Rivals 2 where her and Cooke are talking **** about Cara and the second Cara shows up she is all like: hey boo). Maybe I am biase, But I personaly cant stand this girl and Frank was right on Rivals 2 ;)
stuufman#19
I liked the jemmye from battle of the seasons bc I though she kept it real, but on rivals 2 she was really shady and fake, after talking all this **** about frank she is now bffs with him, jemmye is one of those people that can talk **** behind your back and then be friends with you. Unfortunately I don't think this will be her last challenge, probably she Is going to comeback bc they are going to keep calling her.
SourWolf#20
after talking all this **** about frank she is now bffs with him
Well to be fair, he was talking tons of **** about her too. If memory serves me correct she started hating Frank because he acted like a complete **** to her. But I agree with you that her "friendship" with Frank makes her look fake. She ******* out Knight for not defending her when Frank was talking all that crap about her but then didn't care when Frank started doing the same to Knight on twitter. She's clearly intimidated by Frank and would rather pretend to be his friend than call him out on his bull****.
PinkRose#21
Not her bigger fan! But mad respect for taking losing like a champ and giving us a good first elimination. I still think she is way over rated.
timster3#22
I agree, she went out with class. And after that I wouldn't mind seeing her get redemption.
xlthl#23
Not surprised this girl went home. I laughed when someone on the show mentioned she was a strong player based on how she went close to the finale.

The Challenge Free Agents Jemmye Interview - Bus Driver's Route - YouTube Good interview. I also think the chances of us seeing Jemmye season 26 (if there is one but most likely) if they are filming at the end of the summer isn't likely since she wants to open a store in August and possibly release a book this fall but we have to see. Books take a long time to write for some writers.

It's good promo if she goes on the show though. By the time it airs she could have the store open or the book done. It just slows down the process a bit if she's gone 6 weeks.
