Sorgee at blows has given some insight on Ron and Kelly. She does not know placement just some info on how they got along or did not...Sorgee is a long time poster at blows. I thought some of you might want to read some of the stuff.
http://community.realitytvworld.com/boards/DCForumID37/1060.shtml#35also, i will throw out some psuedo evidence of my own. i'm a sc native, former beauty competitor and i have a daughter that is an active competitor. i can't confirm some things that i have been told through the regular gossip channels, but if word on the street holds true, ron and kelly don't completely bomb, but they also don't make it to the final three. kelly has a melt down at some point and i was told it was during their sequestered time between tasks so don't know if it will be shown or not. i'm told that she just can't pull herself together after that and that if affects her teams gameplay. (I HAVE NOT POSTED THIS AS A SPOILER BECAUSE I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO CONFIRM THE INFORMATION.)
i should mention that me, mr. sorgee and the kids had wanted to try out for the amazing race family edition. (we didn't get to because of a problem with the ex.) anyway, when people found out that we wanted to try out, that is when i started hearing things about how unglamorous the race really is.
the rumours/gossip/stories about kelly were more about being concerned about her than anything else. supposedly she has a meltdown while being sequestered. i was told that the game was mentally and emotionally hard on her. i also overheard that during the race she felt as if she had no control over anything and that it really got to her after awhile. she became very disheartened with ron and a few of the other racers and just started to kinda check out.
one of the sources is a sorority sister of mine that told me during survivor all stars that amber was making a sizeable donation to Alpha Gam and that they couldn't release the details until after the final show aired. (i posted that on the boards, got poo-pooed and then redeemed once amber was in final 2 and then won.) she is the one that told me about the meltdown and i have a gut tendency to believe her. as for the rest of it, i just don't know. i don't know the other person well enough to say that i would absolutely trust them.
to be truthful, i'm not sure what the person meant by sequestered. i got the impression that at some point they were still actively in the game, but in between tasks for a couple of days and she had the meltdown. i don't know if the contestants are ever sequestered during the race, but if they are i would say that is when she has the meltdown.
as i said before, i can't confirm any of this. if i do get confirmation, i will post this as a spoiler.
Here is the latest that I have heard, but not been able to 100% verify.
Long story short, Ron is pretty much a jerk.
The brothers catch Ron acting like a jerk to Kelly and one of them speaks up, Ron says somthing snippy and then the other brother speaks up. The brothers tell Ron to relax and calm down. Kelly was initially embarassed, but later thanked the brothers for their support.
I am also told that a similar situation happens involving Kelly, Ron and Romber. Ron says something - i'm not sure if it is to Kelly or to Rob - and Rob responds by telling Ron something along the lines that when a man really loves a woman he puts her first and makes her happy. Ron throws down his backpack and walks off, swearing. Lynn and Alex are there and comment on the drama. Amber tries to console Kelly and Kelly just wants to be left alone. Supposedly at the time Kelly blamed Rob for setting Ron off, but she now realizes that Ron has a problem with control issues.
I hope that they show some of this on TV. I'm really disappointed in Ron. I remember the whole prisoner thing and I really had this image of him being a great guy.
On another note, I have also heard some interesting pageant gossip about Krisily from the Bachelor. I'm going to do some digging on that and post when/if I get a few questions answered.
