Behind the Screen: The Challenge: Free Agents - Leroy Garrett

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.

I am rooting for him. HOpe that he can win this time...

The Challenge: Free Agents - Leroy Garrett

Youssarian ·

With his own alliance sending him into elimination on Rivals II, Leroy arrives in Punta del Este as a true free agent. Looking forward to his fourth season, Leroy admits that when it comes to The Challenge, he's his own worst enemy, "I've never won a Challenge because of me. I'm my biggest competitor. And self-preservation is my motivation. I want to win, I want it all." Aided by his easygoing attitude and quick wit, Leroy hopes to keep his hands clean and make it to the end by avoiding confrontation. Can Leroy stay below the radar? Or will this strategy ultimately lead to his demise?

Didn't see this until now lol. Would be nice to see the "good guy" win. As opposed to CT, Johnny, Frank, and Wes, who have all one recently. #TeamLeroy

Leroy! I always will root for him. Solid competitor, good guy. He is my pick for the guys; Nany being my pick for the girls.

Leroy has gotten the gaps in his teeth closed, and no one has seemed to notice. Lol

That's because he hasn't talked much this season

He's talked enough to notice, those gaps were prominent. It's also not his fault he doesn't get more camera time, I probably sure he has many hilarious moments that they don't show.

They actual edit him to be very boring because I hear he is hilarious they just don't show that.

I have heard the same, that's why almost everyone likes him. He just seems like a nice, chill guy.
WESANDNANYFAN#18
I don't understand why they always edit him as boring. I also heard he is one of the funniest guys. They need to show Leroy more.

I wonder what happened between him and Nany, they don't seem to be close at all anymore.

yes, I noticed that. she always tweets @ heather, dustin, mike.. but I think it could possibly just be that they're not showing it. I hope that's the case Maybe they'll show more if he makes it to top 6 or 8 or whatever.

I've remember last season she was rooting for the other team that went against Leroy and this season she even mentioned name during their discussion on who to throw in. The first episode she said "I'm not going to say Dustin name" when someone brought him up. I understand her and Dustin are like siblings but damn, sucks for Leroy.
WESANDNANYFAN#22
Yeah Nany and Leroy seem to not be close really but she instagrammed a picture with him when they were filming something so they aren't on bad terms. Also on Rivals 2 apparently Leroy was upset Nany voted for him cause he considered her like a sister but they don't interact at all on the show unless they aren't showing it.

yes! i was trying to make this point in the generic thread. but hasn't almost every segment that they've shown with leroy been hilarious? just because he isn't causing drama or stirring up anything they won't give him the camera time that he deserves. i'm tired of seeing jordan, laurel, and nany so much..
JodyBreeze#24
^ Exactly.......Every moment is funny, and you he's not getting the edit because he's drama free. Too many castmates have said that he's the funniest person in the house, but you'll never know that watching the show..
JodyBreeze#25
I think the Nany & Leroy schism goes back to after their RW season. Nany didn't like how Leroy treated Naomi, and it seems like the love between the two died after that. I think she would voice her opinion on him more if he wasn't so liked by everyone. He's probably the most universally liked character on the show, and she may feel like going at him wouldn't seem right. I think Leroy doesn't really like her at this point, but its not in his nature to say so. He doesn't follow her on twitter (the only Vegas castmate he doesn't follow) and hardly ever interacts with her. I feel like at the heart they don't care each other anymore, and any interaction you do see is for show. Mostly on Nany's part.....

It's funny how this conversation of Nany and Leroy happened today when they actually interacted on Twitter today.

Roylee ‏@RoyLee25mtv 4h “@NanyMTV: Instagram #typical #realworlddayz #mtvbelike @RoyLee25mtv ” RT lmaooo i just think that nany/leroy are closer to other cast members, thats all
KChallenge10#30
Yeah I don't think there is any bad blood between them they probably talk while on the show but rarely talk off the show. I think it's cause we see Nany and Dustin being so close and it makes you question why her and Leroy barely look at each other on the show.
auldx#31
Nany's cool with Adam Royer (she tweets at him sometimes) so i figure she's cool with Leroy too. They probably just don't talk as much
