That was a really good article. The only thing I had a question about was Alex saying that by watching the show, you can tell Amber was obsessed with losing weight. I have not seen that at all.

Interesting read. I must have missed all the scenes where Amber talks about not eating too. Finding out that they intentionally lied about their occupations just to get on the show makes me think even less of them.

I think she said one time on a very early episode when they didn't have time or money or something, that she had to fit into her wedding dress. Pfft! She's in better condition than Janu or Ian on Survivor, or either of those blondes that were out early on TAR, or half the lil sylph actresses running around.

"Although they now know how it ends, Lynn and Alex say after leaving the show they had only one wish -- please don't let Boston Rob and "Amberexia" (Survivors Rob and Amber) win." Enough with the Rob-hate already, guys! There should be a place where they could put all the obnoxious reality show people. Lock up Lynn and Alex, along with Jon and Victoria--and Omarosa! Why won't these people just go away? And is there any such word as "prenumpt"??? I think he means "prenup." Hmmmmmmmmmm . . . Smart guy, that Lynn.

Oops, you're right! It was Alex! I guess Lynn wasn't the only one to say nasty things about Rob and Amber.

Good article. Love that they admit it would "look shady" if they had not been shady and listed their true occupations.. Snort! And of course, they'll use their TAR fame to get feet in doors that might previously have been closed.. I mean who is more likely to get to do their proposed show.. an anonymous gay couple or THE gay couple from TAR? And one wonders if they used their connections as producers and in Hollywood to get their feet in the TAR door??? I suppose that is ok, because it is them.. Actually I hate that they couldn't just let the Romber stuff go because they really ARE a very solid couple who could have been real stars for me.

Can I say "It's a good thing Lynn and Alex did not win, or the production should make them return the prize since they'd lied to get on the show." Seamonkey said it so true: ...they resent Rob and Amber so much because they did what the boys thought they would be doing, only so much better. That's it. BJM, please don't wish for a place " where they could put all the obnoxious reality show people. Lock up Lynn and Alex, along with Jon and Victoria--and Omarosa!" Do you know about that MTV Reality show where they do lock up "has been" peeps ... Sureality or something... I've caught some of it while my teens were ROFL w/ it. Don't know if I may mention it here, but I'd read the Emmy recap on SSucks. Probably not a complete one but good enough to satisfy my curiosity.

Chy, I did watch the first season of Surreal Life when it was on the WB, but could never seem to find it when it moved to MTV. And you're right. Omarosa is on the newest installment of that series, along with Janice Dickinson. [The only thing I remember about JD is that she broke up Sly Styllone and Jennifer Flavin (before they were married), cause she was apparently pregnant with his baby. Turned out it wasn't his after all, and he and JF are now married with three girls.] Apparently JD and Omarosa fought all the time and HATED each other. I won't watch it, though. I've had enough Omarosa.

Oh, I didn't remember the JD part but that he actually broke up with Jennifer via a FEDEX letter! Amazing they are still together.

Well, I think a good place for all these reality show has-beens would be "Paradise Hotel".

THE AMAZING WEDDING "Hot 89.9 FM to host wedding for gay Amazing Race contestants in live on-air ceremony" FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE May 10, 2005 OTTAWA - On Wednesday June 1st, 2005, The New HOT 89.9 FM, in Ottawa,Canada will become the first station in the world to broadcast live - a wedding for a gay couple. In an exciting announcement just after 8 a.m. EST, The New Hot 89.9 Morning HOT Tub with Mauler, Rush, Laura & Josie revealed that Lynn and Alex, the gay couple from this season's #1 reality show - The Amazing Race 7 ,will be flying to Ottawa for a June wedding ceremony. Lynn, 30 and Alex, 22 from West Hollywood, California have been together for four years. Executive Assistants by trade, they signed on to The Amazing Race 7 as a means to test the strength and longevity of their relationship. "From speaking with them it became obvious that their experience on The Amazing Race really solidified their commitment to each other, and their desire to get married," says Mauler, host of The New HOT 89.9 morning show. "Since current laws do not allow the union of gay couples in California, we are ecstatic that they have agreed to come to Ottawa to share with us this once in a lifetime experience." The happy couple is set to arrive in Ottawa, Monday May 30th. Over the course of that week, Lynn and Alex will be treated to a bachelor party, their wedding rehearsal and tour around Canada's beautiful capital city. The live on-air wedding ceremony will be held at the Ottawa Congress Centre Wednesday June 1, and will be followed by a reception at Suite 34 that evening. Newcap Radio's HOT 89.9 FM, known for their ground breaking and unique promotions, contests and events is set to conquer Ottawa once again. This will be the first 'live to air' gay wedding in the history of radio. This wedding will blow everyone away," says Rob Mise, Operations Manager,HOT 89.9. FM. "Although this event will be one of the most challenging to put together in such a short time, we're pulling out all the stops to make this a wedding Lynn and Alex, their family, friends, and our listeners will never forget." In a news conference in New York City today, Lynn and Alex will be announcing their 'Amazing Wedding' to the U.S. media. http://www2.hot899.com/events_special_detail.cfm?id=46 And they called R/A media ????? pot let me introduce you to kettle!!!!

puleeeeeeeeeeeeease. Do they really think anyone cares what they do anymore. They need to go back under their rocks. You can imagine the whining when more people tune in to Rob and Ambers wedding than tune into theirs. I am not tuning into either wedding.

Etalk Daily (CTV's - ie Canada - entertainment show interviewed Lynn and Alex at the red carpet event yesterday. Naturally they talked about their upcoming wedding in Canada. But they also discussed a phone call they received from Rosie O'Donnell. As anyone who watched her show knows, she is an avid Amazing Race fan. She was dismayed that Lynn and Alex did not win a prize when they came in first on one leg so she called them to offer them a free 7 day cruise on her annual Gay/Lesbian Family cruise. They were thrilled about it and said they are inviting her to their wedding (although I doubt she will go) PS they were also thrilled that Uchenna and Joyce won saying they were an excellent example of exactly how to play the game.

I liked what we saw of Lynn and Alex on the show, where I thought they ran a good race and were very entertaining and fun to watch. I also liked team Guido and the other gay couple on another season (they seemed very nice). I don't like what we are seeing of Lynn and Alex after the show. Ugh!
