Product Description

Puck...Pedro...Eric...Tami...Neil

If you thought their lives were open books, you haven't cracked this one!

You always suspected that the fights, affairs, stunts, and secrets of every Real World cast generated plenty of wild behind-the-scenes drama that could never make it on air! Now find out the truth.

Become the ultimate fly on the wall as The Real Real World uncovers the whole story of the series first four seasons in New York, LA, San Francisco, and London. Crammed with candid photos, exclusive interviews, and never-before-seen episodes -- along with uninhibited commentary by the casts, crews, and producers -- this intimate scrapbook delivers the dirt on the events and personalities that made each season unforgettable. You'll hear about:

What the housemates really thought of one another. Did Kevin and Julie ever truly patch things up? Who were Tami's friends (other than Tami)?

The hidden sparks between cast and crew. Which flirtatious cast members in New York and San Francisco kept the crews on their toes?

The big fights. How exactly did Puck and David stir their houses up? And did they really deserve the boot?

Sex & romance. Who slept with whom -- you'll never guess which couples are still together.

Life and death in the real world. In a tribute to Pedro Zamora, his friends reflect on a legacy of love and bravery, how it's being kept alive, and what you can do to help.

Where they are today. Eric parlayed his fifteen minutes into a full-time MTV gig. Not everyone was so eager to linger in the limelight...Learn what your favorite cast members are up to now.

Making it happen. A special chapter details how the apartments are rigged, the crew is directed, and the show is edited for broadcast.

How to apply for the next season. Everything you need, including tips from the producers, sample applications, along with your own actual application.

And as you get the full scoop on this television phenomenon, you also give -- a portion of the proceeds from the sales of this book will be donated to the Pedro Zamora Foundation.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Wonderful Compilation of the First 4 Seasons, May 15, 1999

By A Customer

This book is good for the Real World fanatic or just the average fan. It summarizes everything that happened in each episode at the beginning of each cast section. The Real Real World has some wonderful pictures of the cast and is a great way to learn more about the cast even if you watched each and every show.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very informative and shares stuff you never knew, December 10, 1997

By A Customer

Each persons life was described and feelings you never heard were shared. The book is great for someone who watches the show regularly or for someone who just watches it sometimes and wants to get to know the characters better
