Behind the Screen: The Challenge: Rivals - Evelyn Smith

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.

For one, Aneesa got caught in the current at the way beginning. Beside the point I was talking individually like a one on one duel. Aneesa would wipe the floor with Ev, that's for sure. How is Aneesa overrated?? Not many people seem to like her, and everyone always praises EV so obviously she is the overrated one -_-

Thats kind of an arguement against her, cause everyone else was able to make it.. Ev > Aneesa, the end.

That's what you think, it's not like we got to see Ev do it so we don't know how she would have faired. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion. Sure maybe she'd do better in a final, but definately not one on on (:

I guess we'll just have to wait for the show to air.

If it came down to anything physical, like a 1 on 1 physical duel to determine strength, I have Aneessa beating almost any girl including Evelyn (I know she trains like hell, but some people are just born physically gifted). But if it was any other aspect of the game, I'm taking Evelyn on my team

So you're saying you think Aneesa is physically gifted?

I really like Aneesa, and I think she'd have a good chance in a physical duel against Evelyn, and will definitely have a weight advantage, while Evelyn may have a strength advantage. I honestly think it'd be a good match-up to watch. However, after saying all that, I think Evelyn will beat Aneesa in anything agility/speed/stamina related, that's not even a question. I mean, Aneesa has her strengths... but long distance is not one of them it seems. And Evelyn is a beast (a pretty one, but a beast nonetheless), I'm not even a huge fan of Evelyn and I can admit that.

I don't understand why Evelyn is paired with that girl from Key West. I feel as though, she could have been paired with Susie, Tonya or Brooke.

Paula. And they're paired mainly because of what happened on the Island. Like Paula said, Ev was never part of the alliance and was only allowed on the best boat and into Paula's original spot because she didn't take Johnny's key (and she's a better competitor than Paula). This didn't fare well with Paula obviously, and she even said in one of her confessionals how disgusted she was that Ev would go along with the whole thing. The tension was brought over to Fresh Meat 2 when Ev showed up late and Paula wanted nothing to do with her and barely greeted her into the house. Then Ev (and Luke) ended up sending Paula (and Jeff) home.

Susie and Brooke were in grad school -- not something one leaves. Tonya is building a life for herself away from TV. Would not have happened.

Yay! :) On another note, I know it has probably been said already, but Evelyn really does look prettier than in previous challenges. I especially like the colour in her hair.

I thought Susie already had her PHD in religion. Did she go back? She would have been a great partner for Evelyn.

I agree completely. Remembering how she looked on Fresh Meat, so young and somewhat fragile, to her visor wearing days,now she's a beautiful woman with a very strong competitive nature. I love seeing/meeting those kind of females, something about them is just refreshing. I'd put Emily (DC) in the same category.

"come on Barbie let's go party"-Aqua This is what I think of when I see this picture. Go Evelyn! I cannot wait to see her on June 22nd.

I hope no one takes this the wrong way, or is offended by it but, is Evelyn a lesbian? If so, she just broke my heart. I think she is gorgeous!

I'm pretty sure she is considering she has (on many occasions) made out with other females on the challenges and I know when she was on Fresh Meat she had a girlfriend. I'm not sure if she has/does date men though.

Yes she's a lesbian, though if you ask Johnny Bananas, he'll tell you otherwise (and no I don't mean that she's straight or bi).

Can you continue with this? What exactly would Johnny say?

Does it really matter? I was told by a friend that sexual orientation is a part of who you are not who you are completely. So, I think she should just be judged on her personallty and her athletic ability and not anything else.

On a couple of Derrick's podcasts, Johnny has made snarky comments about Evelyn being a guy.

Yeah I find that weird that they always joke about that because she doesn't look all that manly at all, she's kinda short and not that bulky. She even cries on the show sometimes so I think they just say it as a rude compliment if that makes any sense. I swear it makes me think Johnny has a crush on Ev or something like that cause he seems to try and mention her name as much as possible on some of the podcasts.

Kind of like Angel and her "you're a transvestite!" to Kina.

Now that i think about it, I remember him saying that quite a few times. HAHA. Johnny is jealous because Eve is stronger then him. ;)

Brooke led her on during the Gauntlet III and then IIRC dated Evelyns ex after the show.

Yeah haha, he sure did, and so did Coral and Evan. Although their ways of saying was much more humorous. Coral: I don't care how strong you are, or how much you bench press, or this big rumor about you having a *****... Evan: Brooke going home is the best thing that happened to this team. Now we have our 9th man, little Evelyn, pissed off.

well not particularly, but I don't think she has to train as hard as the other girls to be as physical. I honestly think she can beat almost anyone in a 1 on 1 elimination if it was anything physical. But anyways this thread is about Evelyn...I put her with Racheal as 1A and 1B. Paula is a solid player too so I think this pair can go far.

Whatever happened with Brooke and Evelyn's ex happened outside the show where the majority of us don't know and don't care about it. From what the viewer of the show saw was Evelyn and Brooke hook up early in the show and in the after show Evelyn said that she wasn't with Brooke anymore. So I don't think that would be worthy enough of a rivalry to be on a challenge, considering its in their personal life, therefore the viewer (like me) doesn't know about it, because I don't stalk and follow these people on facebook and twitter. I watch the show and thats it, if its not said on the challenge or reunion, I don't know about it.

I agree Brooke and Evelyn as rivals is more laughable then Jenn and Mandi as Rivals
