Before the Season started I kinda forgot these 2 were even racing. They seemed like the most invisible team pre-race, for me anyway, but I LOVE them now. They remind me of Nick & Vicky slightly. Dunno why though? ???in a way, they do. Nick & Vicki both had big characters and they were really cool & laid back (well, despite end-race for Nick :funny:). I see similar qualities in Matt & Dana, except they're more race-savvy. Both of these teams have got some cool, "hip hop" vibe to them. :tup:
They remind me of Jacques and Josee from Ridonculous and i liked them they are very entertaining :<3
Could they be the next coming of Logan & Chris with random positive confessionals at the end omg :lol:
The Amazing Race Interview
Contestants Matt Steffanina and Dana Alexa from The Amazing Race visit Home & Family to talk about their adventures from the show. The two had auditioned for the competitive series four times before being selected for this season. The dancing duo also open up about what it was like winning the first leg of the show by solving the puzzle challenge. After the interview, the two demonstrate some of their dance moves for the audience.

Edit out every word Matt says and just
show my reactions out of context-- seriously @AmazingRace_CBS?? So disappointed.
I am not sure what CBS is doing with this edit. It is clearly being done solely for drama...don't they know we really don't need that stuff? Just show us the facts please, no need to manufacture drama when there is already plenty to go around.. :groan:QuoteDana Alexa @DanaAlexaNY ·

They also might be due for a redemptive storyline in their narrative... but either way I like them!
I still love them and I found their random bickering... entertaining <3
I also don't believe they'll win.
I also don't believe they'll win.
After the edit, I think so too. :(
They could've made this more suspenseful by not needing to show such forced and unnecessary drama.

They can get a redemptive arc though...
And Laura & Tyler were generally negative at one point too.

Interesting! :o So not all teams this season are recruits.
I know Dana's not happy with her negative edit but I actually really miss it they're just so ~there~ when the negativity is edited out =/

Something DEFINITELY happened this leg that we weren't shown, why was she crying? :o
The 5th place they got this recent leg was their lowest placement so far. :ascared I expected more from this team, and it's disappointing to know how they have a 1st on Leg 1 but never getting another 1st again. I hope they get another win before they end their race. :hoot:After they won Leg 1, I expected them to be frontrunners. But... they're not :o
Sad how they'll get haters because of this. :( (especially the casuals lol)
I'm glad the mistakes they made didn't cost them the race:
1. Letting their cab go (They were lucky to have a huge lead over the other 2 teams.)
2. Missing the clue for the 2nd roadblock (It wasn't too big of a mistake.)

Especially the first one. I thought they would be doomed like Justin and Diana.
Name: Matt Steffanina
Pet peeve about your teammate: She's quick to lose her temper.
Their edit and placement so far reminds me of Ernie & Cindy.LOL. Turns out they win the race also which I love a lot. <333
The things that people have posted on this page and the way I have been relentlessly bullied and tormented over a few bad moments on a TV show is so troubling to me. I'm a grown woman and luckily I have thick skin- but I understand now what people go through and how insane it is to be cyber bullied. The things people have posted on this page I wouldn't say in my wildest dreams to anyone -Nevermind a total stranger ... Everyone here is old enough to know better and typing these things from the comfort of their homes.. It's so sad and scary. I am not a mean person because I've had some mean moments or I have some ugly parts of my personality.. The same as none of you who have come here and posted disgusting things are mean hearted people. It's just bad judgment... At least mine was made in the heat of a moment under intense circumstances, what's everyone else's excuse? I hope everyone will consider more carefully the things they post online-- always trying to teach me the lesson that words hurt while speaking so hatefully- it's beyond hypocritical. Practice what you preach and please don't talk to anyone else the way you have to me... Some people may not take it in stride as I have. Real people see these posts and they can have real consequences. Speak constructively and from a good place or not at all. I've learned that lesson, have you?
You Won't Believe These Fun Facts About The New Amazing Race Cast

Why do Matt and Dana look so familiar?
Matt, a professional dancer and choreographer, and his dancer fiancι, Dana, have starred in a number of commercials, music videos, stage shows, TV, movies, dance videos, and tutorials.
Funny how TAR chose that "fun fact" for this team. I'm just being consistent with the related posts in the other contestant threads. :P

Yes but the season was over more than 4 months ago... it's an old article. Did it really need to be brought up?
I'm a private person, but I feel like this needs to be shared. I'm in pain, not because my face is broken but because if it wasnt me, it could have been his pregnant wife or his child. I heard after this that he has a history of domestic abuse and violence.
This man was a relative of a friend attending the wedding. we've never met besides a handshake at the wedding, no words exchanged, and the only motive that he relayed as he snuck up behind me and attacked me was some sort of jealousy. wanting to mess up my face, my career, I don't know exactly. but he didn't, I might be ugly for a couple weeks but I'll be back teaching soon, hobbling around through a few eight counts and pray that this message reaches one person in danger and somehow makes a difference.
look out for each other. love each other and SAY SOMETHING if you think somebody is in trouble. I love you guys
