Season four of  and season one of Season four of and season four of  eason 13 of  Season four of Season three of  Season one of  kicked off in the United States in 1998 as a spinoff from MTV’s , which pitted stars from the long-running reality show against each other in daily extreme contests to avoid elimination. This is the first time  has come over to Australia and it seems it’ll be running a similar structure to the original US version. An algorithm will randomly pair challengers together to complete in gruelling tasks to win daily challenges and avoid getting the boot. It’s all about building alliances, bulk strategy and working with and against each other to make it to the end as the final male and female challengers. Apparently, it’s expected (and possibly encouraged) that contestants get into some spicy, steamy business as a strategic move — hello showmances — so it looks like we’re in for a hell of a show. Considering there are already rumours swirling about , it looks like the hook-up strat is very much in play on this new show. Sounds like some kind of crossroads between , ,  and . Colour me intrigued. The final two contestants — one woman and one man — take home the title of Challenge Champion, pocket $100k and gain entry into the very first . They’ll then represent Australia in an international version of the reality show in hopes to be crowned Challenge World Champion.  reported that Konrad hooked up with fellow ex- star Megan while filming.  “Oh my gosh! The drama is insane, Konrad is sleeping with Megan,” the insider said, claiming the pair “hooked up” on the first night of filming The insider said there’s “a lot of drama” when it comes to people hooking up on set. “People who are in serious relationships are rooting other people in a space of two or three days,” they said. “The way they were telling us they were in love with their partners, and they can’t think of anyone else but them … it’s crazy.” According to , ex-MAFS star and Olympic swimmer are now dating after appearing on the show together. The rumours started when the pair were spotted posting Instagram snaps from the same locations in the U.S including Nashville, Tennessee and a Dallas Cowboys NFL game earlier this month. Apprently they were just friends while filming . “I did think they might end up together,” the source (who is a fewllow contestant) said. “But as far as I knew they were just friends. Maybe they just didn’t get a ticket back and decided to travel.” Emily reportedly had a partner while filming the show but claims it received a DM from one of Emily’s friends confirming she is now with Ryan. Given Ryan has a romance with during , it wouldn’t be so surprising. Jessika shared a article on her Instagram Story when rumours began to swirl and claimed it wasn’t true. “I had my contracts signed, bags packed, everything ready and received a message from my manager, stating the American executives had made the creative decision to not include me in the show despite the fact that I’m good talent,” she said, according to. “I was so excited to do the show and it was only the day before that I was having Skype interviews with the director and speaking about opening outfits, filming locations and leave dates.” The most puzzling aspect of this is that Jessika was set to reunite with her rival which would’ve been hella spicy, so why would they pull the plug on Jess at the last minute? A sneaky source spilled in August that it was actually too expensive to keep her on the cast because she was set to get paid double the daily rate of everyone else. “As much as they wanted her on the show, they couldn’t afford what she was asking for anymore. It just didn’t make sense to keep her on,” the source told Apparently, Jessika was set to pocket somewhere around $6000 a week on the show, but ultimately it was too much for the show to fork out in its inaugural season. When she found out that her pay was going to be halved, she pulled out. Rumoured cast members included franchise’s , ,,,and. There were also hot whispers about bloke , and , star, and and joining the cast. Nine out of 12 ain’t bad! The inaugural season was filmed in Buenos Aires, Argentina and is hosted by Australia’s first non-binary TV host It’s set to land on Channel 10 and 10Play soon.
