So this is Bananas' 9th or 10th?

Exactly. Paula will do these shows until the day she dies.

I hope not. I would hate to see "The Challenge: Wheelchair Edition" come out 30 years from now.

Paula... I will never ever in my life understand WHY THEY CALL HER BACK. She is horrible TV.

Emily is the strongest girl on this challenge period and Paula just relies on alliances to get through a challenge.

Paula is an endurance runner so you shouldn't count her out physically. She may get emotional at times but physically she is stronger than you may realize. Although in the trailer, they did not show her flipping out unless you count her statement: "I don't care who we **** off."

Paula looks pale and skinny. Hope she's okay.

Ya I do not see that many female competitors that could stop emily In this season.also I do not see that many female powerhouses to compete with her in challenges to come because evelyn is gone.

Wow, so much Paula hate...I actually really love Paula. And she's a really good competitor! I think this is the most well-rounded female team.

Paula has grown on me a lot lately. I'd like to root for her, but I really dislike Emily.

How could anyone dislike Emily? I don't get that

I personally don't get why so many people on Vevmo like her. Aside from being freakishly strong, what does she bring to the show?

What doesn't she bring? She's athletic, attractive and entertaining. Emily and Leroy are the two people that can save the franchise IMO.

I'm neutral about both personality wise, it is a whatever kind of feeling for me. Competitively speaking I am rooting for Emily because I admire athletes, not that Paula isn't. Paula to me is more of an exerciser than an athlete and I will root for her only because she is paired up with Emily.

If this franchise is relying on the personalities of Emily and Leroy to save it, then it's in far worse trouble than we already knew.

Emily's appeal comes from what a great competitor she is and also, because she is level headed and sane and is just there to mainly compete. It's refreshing in a house with crazies like Frank, CT, etc.

I like Emily cuz she's fine. She's cool too. But she's fine.

I get your point. Emily isn't really all that entertaining and she was a tad bit unlikable on her season. But she's shown herself to be a great competor and someone who is rootable Challenge-wise. I'm personally happy to see her on this challenge...I do wish they would cast some of the other people From DC on these things though.

Both are extremely likable. You need people for fans to ROOT for not just watch because they'll create BS drama. I'm still missing what it is that you dislike about Emily but to each their own.

Paula's looks are underrated. She's easily the hottest girl this season

LOL--I hope this was meant to be a joke. Jonna, Emily, Theresa, Sarah, Trishelle, etc are all much better looking IMO. Easily the best looking is crazy. I doubt she'd even get more votes than her partner

I agree with the first half of that sentence...not the second. I thought Paula looked very good on Gauntlet III and Duel 2 (I think the same of Diem...I thought Duel 2 Diem was the most attractive girl on the show) and I still think she's a fairly good looking woman. However I wouldn't rank her above Emily, Trishelle, Sarah, or Nany. Camila would probably be in the conversation but I've never really gotten the appeal of Camila...or Jonna.

Jonna's ridiculously hot. Not the girl to date or marry but she's insanely good looking.

I just don't see it. Even as far back as Cancun when people were drooling over her. She does nothing for me.

That's fine. To each their own but Jonna's "textbook" hot even if she's not someone's type. I just think it's insane to claim anyone is "easily" the best looking--especially Paula

What... you seriously need to see a Ophthalmologists.

Everybody appeals to someone because we all have different views on what we find as attractive or "the best looking". Personally, I find both Paula and Emily attractive but not Jonna. Diem, Sarah, Nany are all attractive to me but not Trishelle. People view others differently based on their experiences because our personal history and how our experiences have shaped us is what makes us unique.

That is one reason I like her. Like Evelyn, she shows up to compete and hates the rest of the crap that goes on. She's not here to get camera time and she's not there to make anyone happy.

paulas partner for rivals 2 should have been anessa which goes back to the duel 1 when anessa won then inferno 3 when paula won and back to duel 2 when anessa won again
