Behind the Screen: The Island: Kenny and Johnny Caught Stealing?

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.

Any one know of a rumor going round about Kenny stealing/taking food from production members. It's being said he was fined instead of being disqualified, although I doubt he was fined much monetary value.

This rumor has reached my desk a few times. I can't confirm it from a reliable source, but it does sound plausible.

Are we talking about Kenny stealing their early morning bagels or him just taking large amounts for himself? Lack of food can make you do some crazy things and I wouldn't be that surprise if it were true.

I doubt this will be addressed on the show, but the rumor circulating states that Kenny and another cast member had their way with a production food store and were caught, fined.

From production's cooler. Fined $1500 is what info came my way from a usually reliable source. Stonedworld, I've been looking at all your posts and you're far better connected than I think you want people to know. ;)

damn it. Why couldn't they have just DQ'ed them? If that food gave them the energy to win, then clearly $1500 fine is worth it. And it would have gotten kenny's face off my tv.

Because although Kenny is krass and sometimes cruel, he makes for good tv, good clips, and good sit downs. Kenny is a ****, on the island he along w/ Johnny completly took over the whole game, and abused the power he was given by his castmates as king of the cool kids. That being said, Kenny's a good guy when not on a deserted island.

Personally, I'm not surprised about this at all. Kenny seems like the perfect candidate to do something like this.

if by him stealing the food gave him energy to win a face off then that's not fair. kenny needs to go. he got a unfair advantage

Past tense perhaps; "needed to go" would be more accurate since they taped the show over three months ago.

You said exactly what I was thinking. Apologies to Insider, as I know you know him....but if this is true, he cheated and had a completely unfair advantage. With all the conflict surrounding food, energy, people's hunger, he went and stole.... and BMP let him get away with it? I smell a fix, and it smells like crap. :ireful1:
RockSteadyVybes#16
Yup....he shouldve been DQed. Why take money from him? Well, yeah...contracts, etc. They shouldve just gave him the boot.

i'm sure they were fined possibly because of details in their contract.

On Derrick's latest podcast, him and Kenny interview Abe (part 1) and initially they discuss this whole situation on the island before talking about cut throat. Originally Abe had stolen food by himself, small amounts here and there, and shared it with the rest of the cast. When he quit, everyone was upset because their source of actual food was gone. Kenny and Johnny they decided to be the new heroes, however instead of being smart and taking small rations like Abe, Johnny had the genius idea to steal an entire cooler (not just the contents but the legitimate entire cooler), and rip a fence (separating the cast from production), dragging the cooler leaving clear evidence of theft. Although Kenny was able to steal more food (brownies on a tray leaving the tray, etc., 'smarter theft') they were obviously caught, and as stated fined. They did state they shared the food with the rest of the cast though, so any advantage they were given was not large.

Haha should have known the 'other' person was Abe and then that fat-*** Johnny!!! Too funny!
