Behind the Screen: The Challenge: USA - Shan 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.

what a queen, made a bad survivor season enjoyable & is saving The Challenge. we finally getting that invasion - final reckoning social media drama back...

If Shan is unhinged then so was almost all of the Final Reckoning cast because their behavior on social media was very similar to this during that time...

Yes!  Shan is such a goddess. I loved her calling Angela what she is, a racist!

Why do ppl hype up twitter drama when they bring none of that energy to the actual show. Speaking of both Alyssa & Shan.

I mean at least in the past whenever there was social media drama it would be discussed at the reunion and then everyone would need to be together on the next season. But with this new franchise who knows

Im not watching Challenge USA so can't speak for that show but Shan brought plenty of drama to Survivor. She was always fighting with her closest ally Ricard then her all black alliance.

Shan was S41, and THAT is a fact. She had the casuals big mad and I loved it.

ChavoAntoine#128

She sure did have the casuals mad. It's like these new school fans can't take people who actually entertain. They would have had full blown meltdowns if they watched reality tv in the year 2005 where people like Shan were very common.  Several were unhinged. Everyone wants to play nice on reality tv now. Yawn.

I agree

She may be a mess, but she's my mess.

You and l others are here just as unhinged when people entertain. Every whiney loser on the internet wants to be offended and ruined reality tv.

She should honestly do the main show. 

King Kyle and Q...#133

I liked her on survivor but what happened on challenge usa and what transpired after... yeah she should stay gone

So y'all don't want entertainment or people who will stand up to the vacation alliance? If so no more complaints about the show being boring.

That's not what she did. 

KChallenge10#136

What did she do aside for come for Alyssa and call Angela a Klanswoman? (Which is lmaooo). Put her on all shows! 

TheKonquerer#137

Shan was messy and it's all about the editing cause she started the Tiffany & Cinco rumor, her beefs with Alyssa & Angela, and Shan would be a good strategic player. She should def do the main show, and anybody who thinks differently is a hater, racist, delusional, or all of the above.

Lol.

Shan is 40kg soaking wet and a little crazy (and not in a funny way), she isn't doing anything against the vacation alliance

Neither is anybody else that they cast, so I'd rather be entertained for about 3-4 episodes.

well if you put it that way lmao

Hauserman#144

I'm not crazy about Shan's behavior off show because let's not act like she hasn't brought it. She was Survivor 41, and is at least giving us something to chew on unlike most of the girls that went on the damn show. Don't be stupid to anyone who wouldn't want Shan on the main show.
