Belltel/Real World Marriage on the Rocks?

Six weeks after the announcement (and subsequent media frenzy) that the next installment of the MTV show The Real World would take place in the BellTel in Downtown Brooklyn, a blog by the agency that books appearances for the show’s casts is reporting that the deal may be delayed, or even called off, because of the pace of construction. The MM Agency blog reports that the best-case scenario for filming to begin is mid-August; it also says that filming is supposed to conclude by November 17. Then the bombshell: “An intern from Hunter College who is working for MTV provided an interesting statement that The Real World may not even film there because they were having some issues with the BellTel Lofts building with the location at 116 Third Place in Carroll Gardens as the backup.” Zoinks!

How about a geodesic dome in Prospect Park? Think Real World meets Biosphere 2.
Billyburgh is over, son. Downtown, Boerum Hill & Forte Greene is where it be at. Housing prices continue to be going gangbustarhymes in those ‘hoods. I know. I live in Forte Green near the Park
I think Bell Tel REALLY wants this to happen, so they will probably “make it work” as the star of another reality tv show would say.
Like I said before – this location makes no sense for the show. Find something in Williamsburg and get it over with.
I think Puffy is….ANYWAY, back to the topic at hand: MTV should shoot Real World in Clinton Hill. You’ve got plenty of creative hipster Pratt students, new school locals who like to sip lattes after their morning yoga, and old school residents who are “keeping it real.” Its the complete Brooklyn experience in one ‘hood.

Fonzworth is an umbrella boy.
I can’t believe I’m getting baited into this, but both Danity Kane and Day 26 had #1 albums this year (both in April).
Fonzworth (check the spelling) is, apparently, hosting a new show on MTV that Jamie Foxx is producing.
Puffy Daddy is Ghetto too. He be nuthin’ but a punk ass bitch. And who be these 2 successful bands? I be doubtin’ any truth to ‘dat. What is Farnzworth be up to?
“Ghetto,” is a pretty loaded word. The show certainly seems to have produced two successful band, and Puffy knows how to produce compelling TV.
