Katie Doyle from The Real World/Road Rules Challenge: The Ruins

 

by Gina Scarpa

 

This week, on The Real World/Road Rules Challenge, Katie became fed up with Kenny and Evan’s pranks and lost her cool in the house.  After The Champions won yet another challenge, Katie volunteered herself to go into The Ruins because she’d rather have it that way than be voted in by everyone.  She faced Sarah, her enemy, and ended up losing.  She vowed that it will be her last challenge but will it, really?  Today, Katie spoke to RealityWanted in an exclusive interview about her friends, her enemies, and whether or not we’ll be seeing her again.

 

Q. Gina, RealityWanted: We’ve heard you say in the past that you weren’t going to do another challenge.  What made you come back for The Ruins?
A. Katie: Basically, anytime that I have a bad experience, I’m going to say that.  That’s what’s fresh in my mind.  With The Ruins, they called me and I had time to do it.  Money is an incentive and some of my friends were going.

 

Q. Gina, RealityWanted: Who is actually your friend outside of the game?
A. Katie: Derrick is like my best friend.  I talk to him like, five times a week.  I’m good friends with Diem and Adam.   I’ve been talking to Veronia since the show but we used to not be friends so that’s new.  I’m friends with people who aren’t on the challenge this season either, like Robin.  I’m more friends with people than I’m not. 

 

Q. Gina, RealityWanted: Diem was one of the first to be sent home and Adam recently was eliminated.  Does it make it harder when your friends leave a challenge early?
A. Katie: Yeah, it definitely sucked because it’s nice when you have your friends with you.  You can mostly hang out with them.  I try not to associate with people I don’t get along with.

 

Q. Gina, RealityWanted: Kenny, Evan, and Johnny are definitely known for giving people a hard time on the challenges.  Do you think that they’ve gone too far?
A. Katie: Well yeah, obviously I think it’s gone too far.  Johnny hasn’t been a jerk to me so I don’t really mind hm.  It’s Kenny and Evan that I don’t like.  I think it’s fine if you wanna joke around with your friends and pull pranks but I’m not their friend so I don’t think it’s funny.  I don’t like to be the target of somebody’s jokes.  They do stuff like that to me every challenge.  Tonya will sit there and laugh but I’m not Tonya.

 

Q. Gina, RealityWanted: They both said some pretty harsh things about you, especially in the videos online after this week’s episode.  Did you see it and what’s your reaction?
A. Katie: No, I haven’t seen it.  I mean, I understand the personal attacks because I’ll say the same stuff, too.  They’re never going to hurt my feelings.  The only reactions I had was being embarrassed about the way I acted.  I don’t sit there and say, “Wow, they don’t like me.”  Evan has a horse face.  I can go just as brutal.   MTV never uses what I say about them.  They always make it like, “Oh, aren’t they funny?”  There’s 28 other people in the house.   Why does it always have to be Kenny and Evan’s references to things?  Evan’s been using the same jokes since Fresh Meat in 2005.

 

Q. Gina, RealityWanted: Regarding the Tonya/Veronica fight, whose side are you on?
A. Katie: It was the day before my Ruins, so I wasn’t socializing.  I was in my own little world.  I know a lot more was said than what was shown.  They started to make personal attacks against each other so I’ve heard both sides.  Unfortunately, we all know each other pretty well outside of this and everybody kind of knows what’s going on with each other.  When both of them went for the other one, it just escalated to a point.  I don’t know…  that whole show was crazy.  It was the worst thing I’ve ever done for 6 weeks.

 

Q. Gina, RealityWanted: You were almost in a fight yourself on this week’s episode with Sarah.  What made you so mad and do you still have animosity towards her?
A. Katie: Sarah never left the Champion team’s room.  I’d wake up and she’d be sitting there.  I’d go to bed and she’d be sitting there.  She was always trying to get in with Kenny and Evan.  People started calling her Super Fan because she only wanted to hang out with older cast members.  Somebody told me that she referred to me is crazy, which is fine.  But if you call me crazy, I’m not going to like you.  I was pissed off about the plunger, they put baby powder on my bed, which they didn’t show, and then Evan told me it was the blue team.  I associate Sarah with the blue team and she was laughing and she already annoys the crap out of me.  I definitely overreacted.  I apologized to her the next day.  If I’m not a jerk, then I don’t get any air time.  They didn’t show my apology.  I shouldn’t have called her fat.  I knew that calling her fat would get a reaction and that was my motive at the time.  I don’t dislike her.  I just think that when you’re that new, don’t be that ballsy.

 

Q. Gina, RealityWanted: You said that you’re ready to move on from the challenges.  Will you ever do another one?
A. Katie:  It depends.  If Kenny or Evan will be on it, then no.  Separately, they can be decent but I don’t like either one of them.   They’re always the two at the end.  It doesn’t become a competition anymore.  It’s a manipulation.  Since Gauntlet 3, it’s always the same thing.  Everybody follows them.  I don’t think it’s fun or fair.  It’s so predictable.  You know what’s going to happen.  I would never do one if they were on it.  I don’t like that they think they’re in control.  Nobody controls me.  Authority and I have never gotten along. 

 

The Real World/Road Rules Challenge: The Ruins airs Wednesdays at 10pm ET on MTV.
