Something like that could never be kept quiet. Someone would sell them out for personal gain and it would be all over the entertainment news and the tabloids before a day went by. I could be totally naive, but it is my firm belief that people are voting straight out their ass and the cockeyed results are representative of nothing more than high-school popularity contest voting. How else would you explain Clay Aiken and Taylor Hicks? I suspect that when it gets down to the top eight, the gap between the bottom and the top vote getters narrows considerably. Thus, it becomes a matter of whose fan base is more persistent or has faster fingers. I won't waste my time reading about the so-called "Real World." I'll just languish in my ignorance of the complex operation of nefarious Hollywood conspiracies, while I celebrate the cluelessness of the American voter. ---TNT If they were misrepresenting the votes, the news of it would undoubtedly leak out.

I won’t waste my time reading about the so-called “Real World.” I’ll just languish in my ignorance of the complex operation of nefarious Hollywood conspiracies, while I celebrate the cluelessness of the American voter.

Producers are notorious for those types of manipulations. Read about the so-called "Real World," on MTV. AI needs more buzz and it's getting it by favoring the worst over the best in competition. What a sham. Turkey, I think the results are fixed. Producers are notorious for those types of manipulations. Read about the so-called “Real World,” on MTV.

What a sham.
