Behind the Screen: The Challenge XXX: Dirty 30 - Nelson Thomas

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 XXX: Dirty 30 - Nelson Thomas

GDInstall ·

Throughout Invasion of the Champions, Nelson touted his loyalty to his alliance. But as the number of folks from his inner circle dwindled, so did Nelson’s devotion. In a three-way elimination, Nelson made a secret double deal: one with his best friend Cory and another with Shane. The knife in Cory’s back was just what Nelson needed to propel himself into the final.

I really like Nelson but this picture is all kind of tragic. 

TheKorean#10

He's so attractive but this pic is horrible.

DanishBoy#14

Nelson is creepy most of the time when he's smiling. He's way better looking in a regular face.

AlwaysAMess#15

Love him. ❤️

LucciVee#16

Baby you looking kind of old. ☕️

ProChallenger#17

That is not a flattering angle...did the interns took these photos?

BabyGOAT#18

Whoever told him this looked good or decided this was the cast pic needs to be fired. And Nelson deserves to be slapped for this, I would have rather he did a scowl 

rwportland2#19

Ugh I like Nelson but this pic is just.. no. And that pose too is so cringey

anon454545#20

Sad Veronica who is 40 looks twice as young as him. Might wanna work on the gut before you rip the shirt off bro. His confessionals are cringe-worthy hopefully with this all-sar cast he doesn't get a lot and exits quickly.

dylan76#21

Whoever took this photo clearly hates him.  Poor guy.  He looks like he actually believes he's looking good.

King-lmh#22

Zaddy Nelson. ♥️

HonestTea101#28

Like I still see the midget guy from Bad Santa with him...

rwportland2#29

LMAO Honest Tea

HonestTea101#30

^Edit. Face wise not a height diss.

rwportland2#31

I just thought he looked like a lost Wayans brother but the midget from Bad Santa is such a funny comparison when it's brought up on here.
