Behind the Screen: The Challenge: Vets and New Threats - Sydney Segal

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.

The Challenge: Vets and New Threats - Sydney Segal

Sydney knows she's on a tv show and absolutely knows that there's a niche spot on the recurring cast as a cocky jerk ala Laurel and Wes. She's mixing that with a bit of Amanda but also she's ACTUALLY a great competitor.

We can all note that she was the only rookie girl and maybe the only girl in general (can't remember) to do the jump and dive under last night, right?

As of now she is nothing like Laurel

i actually like sydney lol

Well she's not giving intimidating bully but the overconfident cocky jerk part is all there.

And I appreciate her for it! She's hamming it up for the cameras. Her confessionals are entertaining. This show LOVES to dump entertaining promising rookies.

What is she supposed to do? Be a likable rootable underdog like Cassidy? Be the literal Rookie of the Year and never get cast again? Queen's carving out her niche on the cast. I respect it!

She's more like wes in his early days

OS Kajun#192

She's not playing it up. This is who she is Wink

You have to target or carve out an archetype for yourself on this show if you want to get cast again. That's what Wes did. That's what Bananas did. That's what Cara did. That's what Jordan did. That's what Ashley did. That's what Amanda did.

Her confessionals could be funny, but she has a terrible delivery and such a bad comedic timing it actually reverses and it's hilarious

learn to love yourself

Stany#197

The whole "I'm amazing" schtick was funny at first but that's really all she's got. Like the joke every time is you're laughing at how bold she is, she's not saying anything particularly witty.

I feel like she'd get jumped in my hood ngl.

I just know most of the cast looked at her and cringed when she spoke about herself lol

That's my exact issue.

Like I keep waiting to laugh and it doesn't happen.

I love that she has the people pressed!

She's weirdly obsessed with herself.  It's nice when a homely girl finds some success & then gains confidence I suppose.
