I can't say I've ever seen any of their Youtube videos, but they seem nice and funny enough. I have a gut feeling they'll make a stupid mistake and be back for Unfinished Business 2...

they also immediately released their own version of 'meet the cast' on their youtube channel...been holding it forever they said, and as i'm watching it, i feel nervous if they slipped their tongue and say something that doesn't meant to be said, but thank God they keep it top secret :whew

They look like a good funny light hearted team. The one thing that is annoying is his voice (I watched the "we're on TAR vids on YouTube)  but other then that I have nothing bad to say about them.

I don't see these two as a big physical threat.

I like them too! I just watch the meet the cast video, and I must say they look funny, can't wait to see their amazing outfits and personality.
Title: Re: TAR 22: Joey Graceffa & Meghan Camarena "Friends/YouTube Hosts"
Post by: Hooky on February 03, 2013, 12:57:30 AM
I like her, but I agree that his voice is going to be annoying.

With this team, however, I feel they will go far. Probably in a "beat-the-odds" kind of way.

A note: Sometimes when I make predictions at the beginning of a season, I have one team on the cast list that I can almost perfectly envision winning it all. Other times, I can't see any team winning, yet I know that some team had to have won. This doesn't happen every time, but some seasons it does. When I do sense a winning team strongly, I have always been exactly right (TAR 13 and 14). I must have a Race-predicting funny-bone or something. ;)

So that being said, this season I get that vibe from these two. Take it for what it's worth. We'll see how it goes though, because this time I'm unspoiled! ;)

Post by: Jobby on February 03, 2013, 01:05:38 AM
I don't see this two as a big physical threat but their race will be the Mika and Canaan or Brent and Caite type of race with minor bickerings here and there. A plus for them if they dominate a few legs like Trey and Lexi and keep up their loving attitude.

For now, just neutral... slanting towards more like than meh.

Same. They are enthusiastic, but in an over-dramatic way that makes their enthusiasm overkill.

They are SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO FUNNY!

They definitly don't take the race seriously , and that was my expectation for a team since S1. FINALLY!

How am I being rude? I usually love positive teams, but they turn me off for some reason. I think they are positive in the wrong way, I know that sounds weird :lol3:.
I actually loved Bj and Tyler and their camera-hogging, but these guys just are not funny to me in their camera-hogging.

There is one main reason why he wouldn't come out as being gay - his audience. A lot of them are young teenage girls, so to keep face, he wouldn't come out,chow ever, it would be interesting if he did during the Race

Agree! At the beginning when Phil said "YouTube sensations" I was like  :groan:
They are not YouTube sensations. Fine maybe stars. But not sensations. I have never heard of them before the race and still haven't watched any of their videos. And well..personally..Meghan seems like she is more down to Earth than Joey.

I don't think Meghan is the force of the team. I think they're both equal or either Joey is the force of the team.

He might have sucked at the Roadblock in Bora-Bora , but killed the Oyster detour and the Bali roadblock.

to answer the question about if joey is gay

yes, he is

he released a video a week or two ago with him dressed as a zombie titled "GAY ZOMBIE", as well as talking about it in a video where he discussed relationship problems. it's not a secret, I just don't think he sees a reason to talk about it, it wouldn't be relevant if he did so he just doesn't do it.

I love this team because of their enthusiasm. maybe they're famewhoring, but they also seem like they're legitimately enjoying the race and I appreciate that a lot.

I would say he is not. Gay Zombie, I think, it was some project he made. Not that himself is gay. By the way, I do not think it would make a difference if he is or if he is not. He is an entertainer, and other things are maybe not of our business (just my opinion).

By the way, what I said is said in some comments on his Youtube Cannel.

Another "What If" scenario for this team:

If Meghan did NOT wait for Mona at the Roadblock, and did NOT get lost to the B-52 Memorial, they could have easily taken first because Pam and Winnie messed up once at the Detour AND not get U-Turned.

I really like this team, they are not a strong team, they didn't finish any leg above 4th place. And I think the only mistake they made was accepting freely an alliance with 2 more teams...although other teams have as well alliances, they are constantly a target...and if everyone can think, they should target by now Anthony and Bates. But well, its up to them.

Back to Youtubers, I love see them in the race, at least they are always honest and with positive attitude towards the race. And the breakdowns..it broke my heart :( I hope they can stay in the race until the end :)

I really like them for the beginning <3

One thing that bothers me though is that it seemed like they just got brainwashed by John and their purpose of the racing is now to get rid of Bates&Anthony instead of just having fun and exploring the world. ...

They need to realize that they and some other teams did beat Bates&Anthony at certain legs before, which means Bates&Anthony are actually beatable.

And also I won't get over the fact if they ended up using another U-TURN in Scotland. Maybe it's just me, but I personally find it very "unfair" knowing a team can utilize a U-TURN twice,regardless the kind.

Best of luck <3 although sometimes KARMA will hit you on the ass if you are to use a U-TURN. hint hint: Jaymes&James;Art&JJ

Besides Joey's voice, what annoys me the most are honestly some of their fans. (NOT the ones on RFF, though.)
Their reactions to J/M's elimination is just exactly what I expected, here are some examples: 'Amazing race is the worst show ever!' 'AR will lose millions of viewers now!' 'I will never watch amazing race again!'
And a lot of them constantly attack Max & Katie on social medias, which don't make sense to me.

They gave a lot of hate towards Pam/Winnie and now, they're hoping Hockey won't win, too. It also disgusts me to see tweet like: "Last episode of TAR I'm gonna watch" or "Say goodbye to half of your viewers, TAR"  :res:

I have never been so happy to see a team go home (aside from Dave/Connor  :smoke). The meltdowns their fans are having are giving me so much life right now. On the other note, I'm proud that these guys made it this far.  :)

Post by: BuuYaa on April 29, 2013, 09:36:44 AM
their fans should be really proud of'em, Joey&Meghan made it pretty far. WAY farther than I expect

I think their elimination is solely because of their mistake for not optioning another flight to Edinburgh.

When they found out that Carol&Jen, Bates&Anthony, and probably Max&Katie (little they know Maxie already had a WAY earlier flight  :lol3:) purchased tickets on the "three-hour later" flight, they thought those three would be stuck with that flight, not thinking that those three (or in this case, those two) would look for an earlier flight, even so, found one.

They were not aware of that and probably felt too comfortable with the three-hour lead they thought they had.

By the time they landed, Carol&Jen already done with the RB, and Carol actually struggled at the RB.  :gaah:

Well, if the only reason I watched a show was for a certain contestant, I probably would be saying that stuff too, lol.

Their fans are obviously going to attack Max & Katie, Pam & Winnie and Bates & Anthony because of what they did to Joey & Meghan... doesn't surprise me at all.

Super sad to see them go. :(

I understand why their fans would probably attack Pam&Winnie and Bates&Anthony, but why Max&Katie though? Race-speaking-ly, Maxie had done nothing to screw Joey&Meghan's game, or race.

From where I see it, they even helped Joey&Meghan a little bit by U-TURN-ing The Roller Derbie Moms. Maxie could've sealed Joey&Meghan's fate by U-TURN-ing Bates&Anthony. But they didn't. They just U-TURN-ed The Roller Moms and let them both battle it out. Joey&Meghan DID have a glimpse of hope to survive, actually.

at least it's not like last season, when an alliance U-TURN a team and prevent that team to use the other U-TURN

So at the end of the day, Joey&Meghan's getting eliminated is basically because of their own error, not because of any other teams.That's what I think.


Title: Re: TAR 22: Joey Graceffa & Meghan Camarena "Friends/YouTube Hosts"
Post by: Polaroid on April 29, 2013, 09:41:28 AM
Because Max & Katie were making fun of John & Jessica after they got eliminated... and then the whole U-Turn drama. And then the fingering on the train. And just a general attitude towards Meghan & Joey. From Meghan & Joey's prospective, there's lots to dislike about what Max & Katie did.

Max & Katie could have U-Turned Bates & Anthony, but I doubt they would have known to do that because TAR21 hadn't finished showing when TAR22 started filming. TAR21 was the first time someone used the U-Turn like that, so I doubt that would have even crossed their minds.

Ouch if it's about attitude I can't really speak I guess,  because I don't see teams that way. I just saw them solely on the race they run
But I understand though why. Maxie is the most vocal for not liking Joey&Meghan, right???

Yeah probably. But you see those W-TURN was actually not that necessary at that point. Even without it, Mona&Beth and Joey&Meghan would have battled it out for last place anyway. They were at least 2 hours 20 minutes behind. That was a huge lead on those three. So what really mattered is how Joey&Meghan beat Mona&Beth to survive the leg

Maxie could've sealed Joey&Meghan's fate by U-TURN-ing Bates&Anthony. But they didn't. They just U-TURN-ed The Roller Moms and let them both battle it out. Joey&Meghan DID have a glimpse of hope to survive, actually.

omg BuuYaa I think you're always forgetting that Bates&Anthony came first at the u-turn not Max & Katie ;)

He means I think to reverse Uturn them to prevent anyone else being Uturned, like 21.

Well, I am sad they went home, they were my favorite team of this season...and I didn't know any of them before the race :) As a Portuguese I don't have much knowledge of Famous Americans Youtube Vloggers :) I was really impressed by them, 2 young and fresh guys running the race with so much fun, I really enjoy them in the race. But Yes, I agree, there are a lot of fans that just saw the show for them...and it is bad when they insult a great show like TAR. Having run 10 episodes it is pretty amazing, they should be proud of themsevles (as I said to myself, transportation and directions would kill this team). They just missed 2 legs of the race, so overall, really good. I initially thought that they would go down very quickly...but I was wrong :D

Regarding of this, the big thing they did wrong besides these last flights (if they were europeans they would know that landing there are always flights to land earlier than 1:00pm, especially when you are in a big city like Berlin...), was forming publicly an alliance with J/J and M/B. Because after that, all the other teams were like grouped themselves to kick them out of the race...and now we clearly have an alliance of 3 teams against the moms, just like in the last season (are we having the same final as season 21? :D:D)

One more thing - Joey and Meghan were the first team ever to do 2 U-Turns in the same race right? Maybe the Cute Sad Faces were jinxed :P

If Maxie wanted Joey&Meghan out in the first place, they could just have done nothing. Joey&Meghan can't use the other U-TURN anyway and they already got u-turned.

In my perspective, them U-TURN Mona&Beth could have saved Joey&Meghan actually, since Mona&Beth had a speed bump to complete and Joey&Meghan didn't

But Maxie probably wanted to save Carol&Jen since they could have fallen behind and be u-turned by Mona&Beth.

I think haterz is a strong word, Laimis. It's just exactly like when you don't like one or two teams in a season, and it's Joey & Meghan that fill that position for me.

I think it's just funny to see their fans--not RFF fans, obviously--to say something, "Goodbye, TAR, you lost half of your viewers." or something like that. It's just... I don't know.

Anyway, to be honest, just like what other RFF said, if the production teams are smart, I think they're gonna be back for All-Stars, even though I didn't like it.

I didn't like Joey's voices at first, but once the others started ganging up on them, I started rooting for these two.

I didn't read any of the spoilers for this season, so once CBS released the TAR22 cast photo, my instincts were telling me that this cast and this season was going to be terrible, and it has turned out to be worse than I could ever imagine.

Even if Joey & Meghan had won, it wouldn't have been enough to salvage an historically terrible season with a rotten and terrible cast.

Thanks to Joey & Meghan for being kind and respectful to the locals, and for being a bright spot in a miserable and wretched season that I consider to be tied for worst season of all-time.

I don't think neither team wanted to save anyone, they all just wanted both teams at the back to suffer both Detours. Maxie said they would prefer Joey & Meghan to go out first, but that doesn't mean they actively wanted Mona & Beth to stay.

CBS.com - Elimination Interview: Joey and Meghan

Posted on Apr 29, 2013 02:50pm

Read what Joey and Meghan had to say about their time in the game in their elimination interview!

Kev W: What was going though your mind when you realized you were going to be eliminated?
Joey: We were obviously really sad but we made it a lot further than either of us expected. We were obviously really proud of ourselves. Making it 10 out of 12 legs isn't bad.
Meghan: The adventure was always worth more than the million dollars to us so going ten legs felt pretty good.

Vincent Y: What have you learned about each other that you did not know about before the race?
Meghan: Joey is way more of an aggressive driver than I am and I'm actually pretty good at reading directions. I never thought that, that would be a strong point for me. And, we definitely know each other's distinct foot odor. We also learned how to trust each other a lot more. In the beginning we second guessed each other sometimes but as it progressed we got a rhythm going.

Celina R: If you could do 1 thing different what would that be? Do you think that would have changed your outcome?
Joey: I think always being super thorough with everything. Even if you think you have the best flight don't settle.
Meghan: Which we had been doing, but this time we didn't and it was our downfall.

Marcos P: Since you got eliminated, who did you want to win the race?
Joey and Meghan: Derby Moms!!!

Maxine B: What's was your favorite part of the race?
Joey: The adventure! Getting to do things and go to countries that we never thought we would be able to do.
Meghan: The surprise of not knowing where we would be going next.

Tim C: Joey and Meghan, how did you manage to keep your great attitudes?
Joey: I think in general both Meghan and I are very positive people and going into the Race our mission was just to have fun and enjoy everywhere we went.

Mira M: Has being on the race had a big influence on your YouTube success?
Meghan: I haven't seen numbers change from being on the Race but we have seen the Youtube community back us up. Everyone has come together and supported us and that has been great.
Joey: Now we get recognized by an older demographic when we are out and about.
Meghan: More Moms and Dads.

Corbyn B: Do you think your alliance overall ended up helping or hurting you in the end?
Joey: I would say that it helped us because I don't think that we would have been able to make it as far as we did without having the support team with us especially with all the teams against us.
Meghan: We were a threat either way. With or without the alliance they would have wanted us out. The alliance just made things better.

Some of their fans are hilarious.

I saw quite a few complaining that Bates & Anthony didn't get a penalty like Chuck & Wynona for not transporting the barrels "correctly"

Well err, even if they got a penalty - it would have not have, in any way, saved Joey & Meghan :lol:

Heck, one person called the show "rigged" just for that :res:

But I admit: I hated to see them being all ganged up on... I agree with them/Roller Derby - why do the other teams think it's a good thing to keep Bates & Anthony in? Though, Joey & Meghan/Roller Derby DID align with John & Jessica, who proved as the frontrunners early on this season. It's pretty much a lose-lose situation in my eyes.

I don't know how much spoiler knowledge beforehand would've altered my opinion of TAR22.

I expected a disaster of a season back in season 16 based on the spoilers, especially the finale spoiler of Jet & Cord and Brent & Caite being delayed at customs, and I still thought that season was FUBAR'd because of that and the U-Turns.

Amazing Race's Joey and Meghan: It's Our Fault for Not Being Thorough
by Joyce Eng

Joey and Meghan have no one to blame but themselves for their Amazing Race elimination. The YouTube hosts failed to check for earlier flights to Scotland and found themselves racing for last against Mona and Beth. Adding insult to injury, both teams were U-Turned, and Joey and Meghan became the first team to be U-Turned twice in a season. "We finally thought that we had gotten ahead, but it was our fault for not being more thorough with the flights," Meghan tells TVGuide.com. So why didn't they double-check? And would they have U-Turned a team as far back as they were?

How far behind Mona and Beth were you?
Joey: We don't actually know. But running up to the mat, I had a feeling that we were last.
Meghan: They were really bad with directions, even worse than we were. There was that little glimmer of hope that maybe we were hot on their trail.

How deflating was it to go from thinking you had a couple hours lead to fighting for last?
Joey: [Laughs] I think it was once we were making the haggis that it really hit us that we were fighting for last place. Up until then, we were like, "Maybe there's another team behind us." There was actually an extra car at the airport — they have an extra in case something is wrong with one — so we were a little hopeful.
Meghan: Coming out of the airport and seeing the cars was the worst feeling ever! We finally thought that we had gotten ahead, but it was our fault for not being more thorough with the flights. We were just so stoked that we got that flight and that the other teams weren't on it that I think that emotion took over us and stopped us from being extra thorough. Beth and Mona had checked online and we asked them if there were earlier flights. And they said, "No, this is the earliest." So we trusted their research. We also asked a bunch of people and they said this was the earliest too.

You clearly didn't ask the right people.
Meghan: Yeah! But it was also 4, 5 o'clock in the morning. We were so tired. We were just relieved to get that flight, so we didn't think things through.
Joey: We did talk to [the other three teams]. They were all, "Congrats on getting an earlier flight." We saw them walking around and looking at other places. Even like 20 minutes later, we saw the blondes roaming around and we were like, "Oh, they still haven't gotten anything."

Once you realized you were in the back, did you think you'd be U-Turned? You guys were so far behind that it was almost guaranteed that either you or Mona and Beth would be eliminated even without the U-Turn.
Meghan: I wasn't surprised they used it. It was very typical of that alliance to U-Turn us. They're looking out for each other. Anything to bring our morale down, they would do it.
Joey: If I were in their shoes, I would've U-Turned just to be safe anyway. Obviously we couldn't U-Turn anyone since we used ours already, but if we still had it and were in the front like they were, I would've used it.
Meghan: I wouldn't have. [Laughs] They were so far ahead.
Joey: But you don't know that when you're racing.
Meghan: I don't know. I'm still a little hurt, Joey! [Laughs]

You guys were U-Turned twice.
Meghan: Yeah! U-Turned twice! That's the worst. ... Good thing we wasted [our U-Turn]. We wouldn't have been able to use it anyway. ... I was hoping that some of them would gain some sense and realize that we're close to the end and should U-Turn the hockey players. Obviously the hockey players got there first, but still. No one did that.
Joey: We would've U-Turned the hockey players. Immediately. They're the strongest.

How much time did you lose at the Roadblock?
Meghan: That was a bummer. It felt like we were 30 minutes behind. I was super-lightheaded. My bagpipes instructor didn't want me to do it until I could hold a note for a solid 30 seconds. I was like, "Dude, I'm running out of energy and muscle strength. Just let me try and we'll see what happens."

I thought you would've made up some time going to the castle since Mona and Beth had a Speed Bump. Did you get lost?
Joey: We got a little lost, but by the time we had gotten out of the Roadblock, it was rush hour, so we had gotten caught in some really bad traffic. That was definitely a setback for us.
Meghan: I forgot about that, but yeah, we hit traffic. And then [Mona and Beth] just destroyed the haggis Detour. They're moms. They can probably change diapers really fast. [Laughs] Changing diapers and filling up haggis are probably very similar!

Then you had to do the barrels. Was it actually faster to roll one barrel at a time?
Joey: Well, what we really did was we each rolled one barrel up halfway. The steep hill was when we both pushed one up at a time, so it wasn't like we were going all the way back to the beginning. I think it did save us some time. ... It still took so long, probably like 40 minutes, and Mona and Beth were halfway done by the time we started. We didn't have any of our gloves on, so my hands were all cut up and frozen by the end of it. It was not fun.
Meghan: The barrels would get caught in the cobblestone and doing them by yourself was really hard. At one point, we tried doing multiple ones and it was just not happening. Those things were heavy! I don't know how the hockey players lifted them up. ... We were covered in haggis. One of the barrels I rolled had horse poop on it. I'm rolling and I'm like, "This smells really bad. Oh, God, it's poop!" And I was pushing it against my body and I was rolling it. It was awful.

You guys remained relatively calm throughout the race, even in Switzerland when you thought you were eliminated.
Joey: Yeah. We always tried to keep our cool and keep a positive attitude about everything.
Meghan: No matter what place we're in, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and we're just grateful for the experience. Although it would be great to still be racing, we knew anything could happen, like in Switzerland. We thought we were out and we were safe. That was a lesson in itself.

What else do you have going on besides your videos?
Joey: We're continuing our daily videos. I'm still doing my daily vlogs. Meghan does too. I think both of us are trying to pursue more acting stuff.

'Amazing Race' exit interview: Meghan and Joey
The YouTube hosts spill on their friction with all the other teams
By Diane Vadino

YouTube stars Joey Graceffa and Meghan Camarena never seemed to find their comfort zone on this season of "The Amazing Race" -- if they weren't beset with navigational problems, they were being U Turned by teams who really should have been focusing their attention on some of their closer competitors. We talked to the pair, who were ousted in Edinburgh's Old Town last night, about the source of their issues with the other teams and swapping spit with Scotland's best bagpipers.

MSN TV: What's it been like watching the season on TV?

Meghan: Mostly it's been really fun because our friends get to watch it with us -- but it's also been kind of sad, watching everyone turn against us on TV. We had no idea what some of the other teams were saying about us!

Joey: We had no idea it was as bad as it was. We were like, Oh my God, what did we do?

Meghan: Especially Katie -- we had no idea she felt that way!

Were you ever confused as to why you were the target of the U Turn, instead of one of the leading teams?

Meghan: We were like, Why not U Turn the hockey players? They're professional athletes! We're on our computers all the time. We're nerds!

Chuck and Wynona specifically told me that they were still mad at you, at their final Pitstop, after you U Turned them.

Joey: We had to U Turn them, to save our own butts.

In the earlier shows, it seemed like you had tons of navigation problems, but you did appear to improve.

Joey: After Switzerland, we asked Mona and Beth how they did it so well -- and they were like, just go into a hotel and ask them to print out directions for you. That was our savior.

Why didn't you look harder than you did for an earlier flight to Edinburgh?

Meghan: The derby moms said they had looked online for available flights and only found this one. We thought for sure it was the best flight. But it was five o'clock in the morning. Exhaustion was taking over. We just weren't at our sharpest.

Meghan, what made the bagpipe challenge so tough?

Meghan: That was freaking impossible. You have to blow so hard into that thing and apply pressure at the same time. [The instructor] wouldn't let me leave until I could hold one note for 30 seconds, but my mouth was getting tired the more we practiced. I finally figured it was better to try than to not try at all.

It looked like you and the instructor shared way more saliva than you should have.

Meghan: You have no idea. He was trying to fix the mouthpiece, and then he'd just stick it in my mouth. I kept thinking, This is for a million dollars. You can do this for a million dollars.

Exclusive: Joey Graceffa and Meghan Camarena talk 'The Amazing Race' (Part 1)
By Elizabeth Kwiatkowski

Joey Graceffa and Meghan Camarena were eliminated from The Amazing Race during Sunday night's tenth broadcast of the CBS reality competition's 22nd season.
 
The "Friends and YouTube Hosts" became the sixth team eliminated from the around-the-world competition after they arrived at the Race's ninth Pit Stop at Niddry Street South, a cobblestone alleyway in Edinburgh, Scotland, in last place.

In an exclusive interview with Reality TV World on Monday, Joey and Meghan talked about their The Amazing Race experience. Below is the first half. Check back with Reality TV World on Tuesday for the concluding portion.

Reality TV World: How far behind Mona Egender and Beth Bandimere do you think you finally arrived at the Pit Stop?

Meghan Camarena: We have no idea.

Joey Graceffa: Yeah, there's no way to really even tell out there. But if I had to guess, I would say probably like 30-40 minutes.

Meghan Camarena: You think so?

Joey Graceffa: I don't know.

Meghan Camarena: I really don't know. I wish we could ask [The Amazing Race host Phil Keoghan] and he'd be like, "Oh yeah, you just missed them!" (Laughs)

Reality TV World: What happened with the flight into Edinburgh? Do you have any idea how you might've missed the fact there was an earlier flight that arrived at 10:40AM? Do you think it was a lack of research on your end or what happened there?

Joey Graceffa: Yeah, it was definitely a combination of a lack of research. We got real excited. We just went straight to the airport and everything was closed, so we didn't have an option to like sit on the computer. But we were asking people to use their cell phones because we had met a contact in New Zealand that was a travel agency.

But since it was out of country, the international plans on people's phones would like die out right as we were about to find out information. So we had to wait until like, I think, 5AM to book our tickets. So we just booked the earliest opening airline.

Meghan Camarena: We definitely let our guard down in terms of doing our research. But the "Roller Derby Moms" had checked online for flights and they had told us that this is the only available flight. So we figured our alliance came in handy here because they had done some research on their end.

We had asked a bunch of different airlines and we thought we were pretty safe in securing the flight that we did. And also, mind you, I don't even know how many days we were into the Race, so our senses weren't as sharp as maybe they were on Day 1, and it was like five o'clock in the morning. So we were really excited.

Reality TV World: Would you say that flight time was ultimately the downfall in your Race that led to your elimination or would you blame it on the U-Turn or a combination of things?

Joey Graceffa: No, it was definitely the flight. At that point, we were a few hours behind the other teams, so the U-Turn really didn't make a difference. It just set us up to be against Mona and Beth.

Reality TV World: Meghan, how long did it take you to complete the bagpipes Roadblock task?

Meghan Camarena: I think it took me about 30 minutes. It was unfortunate because I wasn't allowed to leave the room until I was able to hold the note for like 30 seconds, and I was trying so hard, man.

Those bagpipes were definitely a challenge in itself. And I finally got to the point where I was just like, "Well just let me go out there and try, because it doesn't hurt for me to try and maybe I'll get it right." And I ended up getting it, so I wish I maybe would've tried sooner.

Reality TV World: How did you guys decide who would do which Roadblock? Did you just alternate or did you try to determine who would have certain strengths going into a particular task?

Joey Graceffa: Well if it was something physical, I would take it. And if it was something like more easier, then Meghan would take it. But at this point, I had already completed my six Roadblocks, so Meghan had to do this one.

Meghan Camarena: Mhmm.

Reality TV World: Looking back on the two Detour tasks you had to complete, which one do you think was more difficult?

Meghan Camarena: The "Whiskey" one was definitely more challenging. The haggis was, it was a little time consuming, but it definitely wasn't difficult like the whiskey barrels. Those things were heavy!

Reality TV World: Do you have an estimation on how long each of those tasks took you?

Joey Graceffa: I don't know.

Meghan Camarena: No idea.

Joey Graceffa: I lost track of time.

Reality TV World: Were you surprised about being U-Turned or not at all, like how did you envision that playing out?

Joey Graceffa: Well all the teams hated us the entire Race. So we expected to get U-Turned.

Meghan Camarena: I mean, there was a glimmer of hope that maybe [Max Bichler] and [Katie Bichler] or the blondes [Caroline Cutbirth and Jennifer Kuhle] got to the U-Turn board and had like a sense of like, "Hey, maybe we should U-Turn the hockey players [Bates Battaglia and Anthony Battaglia]." But we knew going up to that board that we were going to be U-Turned.

Reality TV World: There obviously was that big alliance against you two and Mona and Beth. They always targeted you guys for the U-Turns and such. So it kind of sounds like you think they had a personal issue with you rather than just a strategic play on their part. Is that accurate to say?

Meghan Camarena: Yeah! That's what it felt like. Because in past episodes or seasons of the Race, people who get U-Turned are the strongest teams. And not to put us down or anything -- we were definitely a strong team and a competitor -- but I mean, out of all of us, like the hockey players are definitely the biggest threat because they're professional athletes.

So it was kind of confusing and really weird to see us keep getting U-Turned. That was our second U-Turn, so it just didn't make sense in our head.

Joey Graceffa: But we had never done anything to the teams, like we were always super nice to everyone. We just wanted to be everyone's friend and...

Meghan Camarena: (Laughs) We can't help it! We knew it was a game and a competition, but it's in our nature to be nice and friendly to people.

Reality TV World: So when you were nice and friendly to the other teams, did it feel awkward in exchange? Did they treat you as if they had a problem with you?

Joey Graceffa: No, they were just like really quiet.

Meghan Camarena: Standoffish. We definitely had to work for it a little.

Joey Graceffa: Yeah.

Reality TV World: You just mentioned how you two probably would've wanted to U-Turn Bates and Anthony if you had the opportunity. Did you ever talk with Mona and Beth, especially during the time when you thought you were in the lead, about whom would be the other team you'd want to U-Turn?

Joey Graceffa: Max and Katie and the hockey players were the strongest teams. I mean, we also like really liked the blondes. They were really nice, but we didn't see them as much of a threat as the other two.

Meghan Camarena: Yeah.

Reality TV World: Max and Katie had mentioned they wanted you guys out of the Race before Mona and Beth although they were going to U-Turn the "Roller Derby Moms" since Bates and Anthony had already opted to U-Turn the both of you. What was your reaction to that comment?

Meghan Camarena: Well we were strong competitors. When we got to Detours and Roadblocks, I'm not kidding you, we tore those things up like it was nobody's business. It was just a matter of us getting to those Roadblocks and getting the right directions. But it was a compliment.

Above is the first half of Joey and Meghan's exclusive interview with Reality TV World. Check back with us on Tuesday for the concluding portion.

The Amazing Race 22: Exclusive Interview with Joey Graceffa and Meghan Camarena
Posted on 04/29/2013
by Gina Scarpa

Young, energetic, and entertaining to watch, Joey Graceffa and Meghan Camarena could have been overlooked as a threat on The Amazing Race. Make no mistake, though, these YouTube personalities and close friends came to win. Throughout the race, they formed alliances, took advantage of the U-Turn, and took it hard when their race came to an end this week in Switzerland. We talked to the pair today in an exclusive interview about the friendships, rivalries, and fans they gained during their time on The Amazing Race.


Q. Gina, RealityWanted: Whose idea was it to audition for The Amazing Race?
A. Joey: It was my idea! I love the show, I actually watched it when I was really, really little. I never imagined I would be on The Amazing Race but the time came, I applied, and I thought, "Who better to do it with than Meghan?" She's the adventure girl, she jumps out of planes!
A. Meghan: I think I wet my pants, I was so excited! If I was ever going to do reality tv, The Amazing Race was the only one I'd want to do.

 

Q. Gina, RealityWanted: You guys have already made names for yourselves on YouTube. What has the fan reaction been like since you've been on the show?
A. Joey: Our fans have been so supportive of the entire thing, especially last night. We got so many tweets from people supporting us after our elimination.
A. Meghan: People were making t-shirts and every Sunday night, we would get hundreds and hundreds of people telling us how excited they were for the race.


Q. Gina, RealityWanted: This season has very much been about alliances. Who were you the closest with?
A. Joey: The derby moms, but I think if John and Jessica had stayed longer, we would've been even closer with them. We freaking love them so much! Thank god for the derby moms or we would've been dead.
A. Meghan: It was so disheartening how all the teams were treating us.

 

Q. Gina, RealityWanted: When I talked to Chuck and Wynona, they mentioned how they fought with you all season and they weren't rooting for you to win. I didn't realize the issues ran that deep!
A. Joey: There have been many instances where we had a small rivalry with them. In the second episode, we sprinted in front of them to get to the mat. In Vietnam, we U-Turned them.
A. Meghan: We liked them! I think they always felt like we were hot on their trails. We felt bad but it's a race! They took things personally, it was bad. We wouldn't have used the U-Turn if we knew Dave and Connor were out.


Q. Gina, RealityWanted: This week, you and Mona and Beth were convinced you were ahead of the other teams on the flight to Scotland. What made you feel so confident?
A. Joey: We saw them walking around still looking for flights. We thought they were trying to get an earlier flight. We kind of got a little too comfortable and probably should've looked for better flights.
A. Meghan: It felt like things were finally starting to go our way after Berlin. It was our fault.

 

Q. Gina, RealityWanted: After watching Bates and Anthony roll those whiskey barrels in the Detour, I was amazed and how you tried to move through that task as quickly as possible. It seemed so difficult!
A. Joey: It was definitely really hard. We didn't have any gloves and the ground was wet, cold, and rocky.
A. Meghan: One of my barrels had horse poop on it so that was refreshing!

 

Q. Gina, RealityWanted: When you arrived at the pit stop, you knew there was a good chance you were going home. Was that tough to handle?
A. Joey: Yeah... I was crying before we even got there. I knew it was over.
A. Meghan: I was pretty hopeful. I was like, "It's not over until Phil says it is!"

 

Q. Gina, RealityWanted: What's been the best part about being on The Amazing Race?
A. Joey: Just the crazy adventure. These are all things we would never even do. No one gets the chance to do these crazy things, like jump off a building, jet ski like you're in a James Bond movie...
A. Meghan: Racing around the world! When can you ever say that you did that? That's worth way more than the million dollar prize. Someone asked us if we would've quit the race if they offered us a million dollars, and we said no!

I didn't like Joey's voices at first, but once the others started ganging up on them, I started rooting for these two.

I didn't read any of the spoilers for this season, so once CBS released the TAR22 cast photo, my instincts were telling me that this cast and this season was going to be terrible, and it has turned out to be worse than I could ever imagine.

Even if Joey & Meghan had won, it wouldn't have been enough to salvage an historically terrible season with a rotten and terrible cast.

Thanks to Joey & Meghan for being kind and respectful to the locals, and for being a bright spot in a miserable and wretched season that I consider to be tied for worst season of all-time.

Funny, I have enjoyed this season a lot! So sorry that you haven't...must be the lackof spoiler fun!! :lol:

Nope! I stay clear from US version spoilers, and I am LOVING this season (sans a certain team)!

ELIMINATION INTERVIEW: JOEY AND MEGHAN
POSTED ON APR 29, 2013 02:50PM

Read what Joey and Meghan had to say about their time in the game in their elimination interview!

Kev W: What was going though your mind when you realized you were going to be eliminated?
Joey: We were obviously really sad but we made it a lot further than either of us expected. We were obviously really proud of ourselves. Making it 10 out of 12 legs isn't bad.
Meghan: The adventure was always worth more than the million dollars to us so going ten legs felt pretty good.

Vincent Y: What have you learned about each other that you did not know about before the race?
Meghan: Joey is way more of an aggressive driver than I am and I'm actually pretty good at reading directions. I never thought that, that would be a strong point for me. And, we definitely know each other's distinct foot odor. We also learned how to trust each other a lot more. In the beginning we second guessed each other sometimes but as it progressed we got a rhythm going.

Celina R: If you could do 1 thing different what would that be? Do you think that would have changed your outcome?
Joey: I think always being super thorough with everything. Even if you think you have the best flight don't settle.
Meghan: Which we had been doing, but this time we didn't and it was our downfall.

Marcos P: Since you got eliminated, who did you want to win the race?
Joey and Meghan: Derby Moms!!!

Maxine B: What's was your favorite part of the race?
Joey: The adventure! Getting to do things and go to countries that we never thought we would be able to do.
Meghan: The surprise of not knowing where we would be going next.

Tim C: Joey and Meghan, how did you manage to keep your great attitudes?
Joey: I think in general both Meghan and I are very positive people and going into the Race our mission was just to have fun and enjoy everywhere we went.

Mira M: Has being on the race had a big influence on your YouTube success?
Meghan: I haven't seen numbers change from being on the Race but we have seen the Youtube community back us up. Everyone has come together and supported us and that has been great.
Joey: Now we get recognized by an older demographic when we are out and about.
Meghan: More Moms and Dads.

Corbyn B: Do you think your alliance overall ended up helping or hurting you in the end?
Joey: I would say that it helped us because I don't think that we would have been able to make it as far as we did without having the support team with us especially with all the teams against us.
Meghan: We were a threat either way. With or without the alliance they would have wanted us out. The alliance just made things better.

I can't deny... they grew on me. :(

Me too. As I was watching this whole episode, I couldn't help but feel bad for Joey & Meghan and Mona & Beth.

There were plenty of opportunities in the previous legs for the other teams to take Bates & Anthony out, but now that opportunity is gone. Yes, I like Bates & Anthony, but after watching this episode, I only feel sorry for what Mona & Beth are now going to have to go through.

Just because Joey & Meghan and Mona & Beth were aligned with John & Jessica early on doesn't mean that U-turning them is justified. While I think the two teams are both stronger than Caroline & Jennifer (in my opinion definitely the weakest team left both physically and strategically), that doesn't mean it wouldn't be wiser to U-turn Bates & Anthony or even Max & Katie.

(But I love Max & Katie and hope they win still.)

I just love the enthusiasm they had for the race. I know a lot of people found it annoying or as camera mugging, but seeing Joey and Meghan's excitement when they got 2nd place, hearing about how the Germany leg was the best day of Joey's life (it was an AMAZING leg in my opinion, looked like so much fun), and even watching the bickering they got into which always turned out fine (they did a great job at supporting each other), I think they were an awesome team to watch.

Joey and Meghan say failing to look for an earlier flight was their ‘biggest mistake’ on ‘Race’
by: Sheri Block



YouTube hosts Joey Graceffa and Meghan Camarena from Los Angeles were the next team to be eliminated from “The Amazing Race” after failing to look for an earlier flight to Edinburgh, Scotland, and arriving in the city behind the majority of the other teams. Racing neck and neck with their alliance, roller derby moms Mona and Beth, Joey and Meghan fell behind after being U-turned and arrived last at the Pit Stop.

The team spoke to CTV.ca about their time on the “Race” in a recent phone interview. Excerpts are below.

You thought you were on the first flight to Edinburgh (along with the derby moms) -- how did it feel when you got there and realized that three other teams were already ahead of you?

Meghan: It was gut-wrenching. That sucked because we were so confident in knowing that we had got the earlier flight. The moms had booked their tickets online so they had checked for the earlier flight and we had kind of been assured that was the only one available. Our alliance (with the derby moms) had come in handy in the past with booking flights so we totally trusted them and thought we didn’t need to look for another flight.

That was our biggest mistake because in the past we’ve been so thorough with that. We’ve always looked for an earlier flight, even after we booked our tickets. We just got comfortable. It was so early in the morning, too, I think we were a little off our game.

How did it feel to be neck and neck with Mona and Beth, a team that you were friends with?

Joey: It was so hard. Throughout the whole thing we didn’t really know if we were actually in last. We were still working together up until the haggis (challenge). It just felt wrong.

You were U-turned and had to complete both sides of the Detour. Which side was worse – making and eating haggis or rolling the barrels up a hill?

Meghan: The barrels were the absolute worst. They were so heavy and one of my barrels had horse poop on it so I got covered in horse poop as we were rolling it. I was covered in haggis and horse poop.

Joey: Same – the barrels were worse. It was so cold outside and our hands were bare. Pushing the barrels up the hill, our hands felt like they were going to fall off at the end.

Besides finding an earlier flight, do you think there is anything else you could’ve done differently?

Joey: It was really hard to find the Pit Stop. We kept having to stop to find directions. There’s nothing you can really change about that.

Meghan: The moms were really on it. This felt like this was a leg that was made for the moms – making the haggis and the whiskey barrels. They killed it. They did so well.

What was it like running the “Race” with each other?

Joey: It was really good. I definitely am happy that I chose Meghan as my partner.

Meghan: It was so much fun. We both can kind of see the brighter side of things. We love adventure and we love having fun together so it was a blast the whole way through.

What’s next for you guys?

Meghan: Working on our YouTube videos – pitching a lot more acting and creating our own stuff and seeing what doors that opens.

Do you think being on the “Race” has helped with your exposure?

Meghan: I cried in Switzerland so maybe people are going to be like, ‘Maybe she can cry in this video for me’ and that will be my (acting) debut. Or if people want me to trip and fall somewhere, I’m so down for that.

Exclusive: Joey Graceffa and Meghan Camarena talk 'The Amazing Race' (Part 2)
By Elizabeth Kwiatkowski

Joey Graceffa and Meghan Camarena were eliminated from The Amazing Race during Sunday night's tenth broadcast of the CBS reality competition's 22nd season.
 
The "Friends and YouTube Hosts" became the sixth team eliminated from the around-the-world competition after they arrived at the Race's ninth Pit Stop at Niddry Street South, a cobblestone alleyway in Edinburgh, Scotland, in last place.


In an exclusive interview with Reality TV World on Monday, Joey and Meghan talked about their The Amazing Race experience. Below is the concluding portion of their interview. Click here to read the first half.

Reality TV World: How did you guys feel about Max Bichler and Katie Bichler in general? Because earlier in the Race, it looked like you guys were frustrated with Max for making fun of John Erck for getting eliminated with an Express Pass in his pocket.

Joey Graceffa: We really didn't like Max. We got along with Katie. She was actually really funny, but watching the show and seeing all the things they said bad about us, it's just like, "Wow, they were super fake to us," like we totally thought that they were kind of nice -- except I could see right through Max.

Meghan Camarena: Yeah, he was rude.

Joey Graceffa: But Katie, that threw me off because she was actually like a "B" word. (Laughs)

Meghan Camarena: (Laughs)

Reality TV World: When I talked to Pamela Chien and Winnie Sung recently, they basically said they thought that was just Max's personality -- someone who's funny, sarcastic and jokes a lot. Looking back, do you see that perspective at all? It kind of sounds like you'd just simply disagree with that school of thought.

Meghan Camarena: I think Max is kind of a jerk. I think he was trying to get laughs out of people, but he kind of crossed the line of being a bully and just like making fun of other people because of, I don't know.

I have no idea what his motives were with doing that, but he definitely did cross the line. It felt like high school, like people being bullies for no other reason except for like -- I don't know.

Reality TV World: In terms of your alliance with Mona Egender and Beth Bandimere, do you guys think you had a real friendship with them or was it more for strategic purposes or maybe because they were kind of all you had for support?

Meghan Camarena: Watching the episode when they were talking about it, it seemed like we cared about them a lot more than they cared about us.

Joey Graceffa: Yeah, like, "Try to lose them! Try to lose them!" (Laughs)

Meghan Camarena: And we're like, "Ohh the derby moms!" (Laughs) Frickin' Mona jumped over trash cans and we had no idea at this time that we were racing for last.

Reality TV World: For the whiskey barrel Detour task, the clue instructed you to roll the barrels to the festival but Bates Battaglia and Anthony Battaglia kept picking them up and carrying them, which some viewers thought would result in a time penalty or something. Can you kind of clarify what happened there? Had the clue not stated you necessarily "had" to roll them or did Bates and Anthony actually get a penalty but it just wasn't shown in the editing?

Joey Graceffa: No, it just said transport them whichever way you can without getting help from people.

Meghan Camarena: Oh, but there was also an asterisk at the bottom of the clue that said, "If you are a professional athlete and have super-human strength, you can lift the barrels up above your head."

Joey Graceffa: (Laughs)

Reality TV World: So I'm guessing you two might've tried that but didn't succeed? (Laughs)

Joey Graceffa: Actually, we tried pushing multiple barrels at a time, thinking like, "Oh the other barrel will push this barrel in front of it." We tried three at a time and then were like, "Alright, let's bring it down to two."

Meghan Camarena: I was like, "How did they do it in Donkey Kong?!" (Laughs)

Reality TV World: I wanted to get your thoughts on Chuck McCall and Wynona McCall's time penalty during last week's episode for rolling their cheese wheels instead of transporting them on the sled? They thought that penalty was pretty unfair.

Meghan Camarena: Well, keeping the cheese on the sled was really freaking hard.

Joey Graceffa: Yeah, that was the most difficult part. You had to go slow down the hill to make sure you didn't lose your cheese halfway up the hill and have to go all the way back up.

Meghan Camarena: So that was definitely the challenge in itself. Sliding down the hill was no problem, but when the cheese fell off, it was really hard to pick it up and put it back on the sled.

So I can understand why they did get that penalty, because it wasn't an easy task. And I mean, like, we could've done that from the beginning too. We would have, but the challenge itself was keeping the cheese on the sled.

Reality TV World: When you two showed up at that particular Pit Stop, you were pretty convinced you were out. Is that right?

Meghan Camarena: Well, Joey wasn't.

Joey Graceffa: I felt like it wasn't our time and I was just like, "No, there's no way." So I had a lot of hope, like, "Please, there's got to be something."

Meghan Camarena: I was at my breaking point. You know, I had run three miles uphill in the snow both ways, and I was just so tired and giving it my all. And it felt like we had come in last place because of me because I wasn't strong enough and I wasn't fast enough and Chuck and Wynona had beaten us. So I was feeling all of that weight and it kind of just led to my breakdown.

Reality TV World: Could you describe the thought process behind running to the Pit Stop? Did it not cross your mind to take a taxi or did you think the Pit Stop was a lot closer than it actually was?

Meghan Camarena: There were no taxis, like all of the taxis were up at the top of the hill. So we were just waiting for a taxi, and Chuck and Wynona had finished the cheese thing so much later than us, that of course all the taxis had come down. And while we were running, we were looking for taxis. There just wasn't any. It was a small town.

Joey Graceffa: We even stopped at a hotel and they were like, "Oh yeah, we have one taxi but it's gone. We can get you one in 10 minutes." I was like, "No, we're just going to run the rest of the way" after that.

Reality TV World: I know you're both YouTube hosts but how well did you know each other before the show? Your relationship wasn't as clear as some of the other teams. Would you consider yourselves best friends?

Joey Graceffa: Yeah, we've been friends for like four years.

Meghan Camarena: Before we both lived in L.A. we would like talk on Skype a whole bunch. We both would do music videos when we first started, so that kind of bonded us together along with all the other nerdy things that we like.

Reality TV World: So you knew each other before you started working together then?

Meghan Camarena: Yes, absolutely.

Reality TV World: How were you cast on The Amazing Race and was it your first time applying for the show?

Joey Graceffa: Yeah, it was our first time applying and we went in and they liked us, and yeah!

Meghan Camarena: And they were like, "You're perfect, go ahead!" (Laughs)

Joey Graceffa: Actually, we were alternates but we ended up getting on.

Reality TV World: How much notice did you two receive that you'd be racing before filming actually began? Was it a last minute situation?

Joey Graceffa: No, I think we had like a month.

Reality TV World: Would you ever be interested in competing in an all-stars edition if given the opportunity or were you almost a little relieved the Race was over when it was?

Joey Graceffa: I think we were really relieved when it was over and we were like, "I don't know if we could do that again!" But now, like we're so pumped up, we want to do it again.

Meghan Camarena: I'm so ready! Put us back in the arena! We're like Katniss and Peeta, we'll do it.

Reality TV World: Katniss and Peeta minus the fact they were sort of in love right? (Laughs)

Meghan Camarena: Yeah, we're just friends! (Laughs)

Joey Graceffa: (Laughs)

'Amazing Race': Joey and Meghan on Their Elimination
by Kimberly Nordyke

The eliminated YouTube hosts talk to THR about getting a second chance and why most of the other teams were "jerks."

Joey Graceffa and Meghan Camarena escaped elimination once -- due to Chuck and Wynona McCall's failure to follow a clue properly in a previous leg -- but they weren't so lucky in Sunday night's episode of The Amazing Race.

The double U-turn in Scotland resulted in two of the remaining five teams battling it out for the fourth spot: Joey and Meghan and their alliance mates, "roller-derby moms" Mona Egender and Beth Bandimere.

On Monday, the eliminated YouTube hosts talked to The Hollywood Reporter about their time on the race, getting a second chance and whether they'd do it again.

The Hollywood Reporter: When did you realize you were going to be last?

Joey: We thought before the haggis there was possibly a team behind us, but once we got to the haggis, it was just us and Mona and Beth. They finished before us, and with the U-turn, and us finishing that last, we kind of had a feeling.

Meghan: We had a glimmer of hope that something might have happened. We were holding out hope until Phil [Keoghan] told us we were eliminated.

Joey: I was crying up to the mat; I knew it deep down.

THR: The first time you were eliminated -- but saved due to Chuck and Wynona's error -- you were really emotional, Meghan. But this time, Joey seemed like the more emotional one.

Meghan: When we were in Switzerland, after running miles uphill in the snow and giving our all, and then seeing Chuck and Wynona [on the mat], it was so disappointing.  This time, I just wanted to wait until we got there. It's not over until it's over. But believe me, tears were shed. Once Phil told us [we were eliminated], my heart broke inside. It felt unreal. Like "Phil, are you serious?"

THR: What was going through your minds the first time you found out you hadn't actually been eliminated?

Joey: It was total relief. We were so excited we got to continue on. It definitely sparked a fire in us, and we worked really hard. We got second place in Germany [the previous leg].

Meghan: It felt like we had a second chance at really giving it our all. It was more fun this time around. You never know when it's over, it's so unpredictable. That was our attitude.

THR: What went wrong at the airport? Both you and Mona/Beth thought you were on the first flight out, but in fact landed more than two hours after the other three teams.

Joey: Max and Katie were smart to stay at the hotel and do some research. We got super amped-up and wanted to get to the airport as soon as possible because we thought there might be a flight leaving. We didn't take the time to stop and look at a computer as we had done in the past legs. This time, it kind of felt like the airport might have a computer, but everything was closed when we got there. So we went to the earliest-opening airline, which I guess we thought was connected to everything, and it wasn't.
Meghan: That was our mistake, not being more thorough. Our state of mind was probably not the best at that point. It was early in the morning. We got the last available tickets on the flight and thought everyone else was leaving three hours after us.

Joey: All the teams were in line with us, and we thought, oh this is great. They're leaving three hours later, we don't have to do any more research. But by this time we were 21 days in the race and we were exhausted.

THR: At the point you were eliminated, is it safe to say you were rooting for Mona and Beth to win over the other three teams?

Joey: All the other teams were jerks, and everyone was against us the whole time. We were so lonely on the race. We were lucky to have Mona and Beth there to support us; they were our "race moms."

Meghan: They were seriously our support system, and we were been cheering for them. We told everyone they have to keep watching [to support] the derby moms.

THR: What was the best thing about being on the race?

Joey: Just the adventure of not knowing what was next and going to different countries and experiencing the culture.

Meghan: We watch a lot of movies, and it felt like Joey and I were in our own little adventure.

Joey: There were a lot of bad times but it was definitely good overall. It was an amazing experience, and I'd love to do it again.

Meghan: The memories we have and experiences we shared together, it was once in a lifetime. I'd do it again.

Interview: Joey & Meghan talk 'The Amazing Race'
Team YouTube discusses being disliked by the competition
By Daniel Fienberg

YouTube stars Joey Graceffa and Meghan Camarena seemed to be having a lot of fun on "The Amazing Race," so it's a little bit sad to hear the newly eliminated duo discussing their disappointment that the other teams seemed to dislike them on the Race.
 
It wasn't all of the other teams, of course. Joey & Meghan made an early alliance with John & Jessica and Roller Derby Moms Mona & Beth, targeting Hockey Brothers Bates & Anthony, the team they felt [correctly, so far] was the biggest threat. That, of course, left them feeling targeted by Bates & Anthony, but also by the other teams aligned with the friendly pro athletes.
 
"It really just seemed like people on the Race didn't like us, genuinely, just really didn't want us there and it made us kinda feel a little crappy," Meghan says now. 'It kinda reminded me of high school when I used to get picked on, so I was just like, "What is this feeling? I am grown up. This shouldn't be happening.'"
 
Awww.
 
Team YouTube discusses that Race dynamic, as well as their other highlights and lowlights in this week's "Amazing Race" exit interview.
 
 
HitFix: Sunday's episode at least made it seem like you guys had a chance to catch Mona & Beth after the U-Turn. Did it feel that way at the time?
 
Joey Graceffa: No.
 
Meghan Camarena: Well, honestly, that's not completely true. We had no idea. You never know til it's over. That's what we had learned in Switzerland. They could have gotten lost.
 
Joey: That's true. I don't know. I was just a little down. I was already crying pushing the barrels up the hill. I was just like, "Oh, it's over!" They ran past us after they finished their U-Turn and they were like, "Good job guys!" and I was just, "Oh, we're done! We still have like four more barrels to go."
 
 
HitFix: When you guys remember how hard it was to get those barrels up that hill, what was your reaction watching last night's episode and seeing how Bates and Anthony did it?
 
Joey: It just proved to us that they are beasts and they should have been the ones U-Turned, if they could freakin' carry a whole barrel up on their shoulders.
 
Meghan: Yeah, that's crazy! I just don't understand how we got U-Turned and they didn't. Well, obviously they were there first, but, you know...
 
 
HitFix: You guys made your alliance early on and it was partially because you recognized Bates and Anthony as threats, right?
 
Meghan: Yeah! And also John and Jessica, they were a really strong team and they had the Express Pass and the Derby Moms were definitely a strong team as well, so we figured, "Let's all work together, look out for each other and get to the top together and get the Hockey Players out of this race, because they're professional athletes. No one stands a chance." You know? That's how we felt.
 
 
HitFix: Were you guys maybe disappointed that there weren't more tasks concentrating on maybe the things you guys do well, rather than maybe carrying barrels up a hill?
 
Meghan: Well, up until that point, all the tasks were actually pretty fun.
 
Joey: Yeah, I think we were able to do all the Detours pretty fast.
 
Meghan: Even the cheese one. That was kinda a blast!
 
 
HitFix: When you think on that alliance you guys had, how did you feel like it helped you and how did you feel like maybe it hurt you to some degree?
 
Joey: I guess we can start with how it hurt us. We possibly made the alliance a little too early, which really scared the other teams and made them have something against us for the entire Race, even when our alliance was not as strong as it was in the beginning...
 
Meghan: People still hated us.
 
Joey: Yeah. It definitely helped us, because the Race is actually really long and more emotionally straining than physically, just because...
 
Meghan: When you have everyone hating you and talking crap about you, you can feel that and it's awkward when you walk next to people. It was nice having the Derby Moms as our alliance, because we knew that they actually did care about us and were looking out for us like we were looking out for them. But in the beginning, when we made the alliance with John and Jessica, no one knew they were going to get out. With the Express Pass! That was something that none of us saw coming. And they were one of the strongest teams. They kept getting in the Top Three and they still had the Express Pass, so we felt like when we made that alliance, it was a smart move. No one saw that coming.
 
 
HitFix: What was your reaction watching the episode in which John and Jessica went out with that Express Press?
 
Meghan: That was sad.
 
Joey: It was really sad.
 
Meghan: When I found out they were out, I ended up crying, because I was so sad. We had fun with them so much and they were like good friends and it really felt like we had an awesome alliance family and then to see them gone so quickly, I just didn't believe it.
 
Joey: And then the next day, all the teams turned against us.
 
 
HitFix: How bad did things really get with the other teams out there?
 
Meghan: It was just like how you saw it on TV, nothing short of that. They just didn't like us.
 
Joey: It was more like they'd be silent to us and we could tell that they didn't like us, but actually seeing it on TV and seeing all the things that they said about us...
 
Meghan: That's true. That was a little worse. We were nice to everyone. We can't help it. It's not in our nature to be mean or cold-hearted to people, so even knowing that the teams really didn't like us, we were still really nice to everyone.
 
 
HitFix: It's just hard to tell on TV, because obviously you aren't going head-to-head, so it's hard to see any outright hostility, but was this the kind of thing that actually hampered the enjoyment you guys were getting out there?
 
Joey: Yeah, definitely.
 
Meghan: Yeah.
 
Joey: It was really hard just knowing all the teams were against us. It was kinda depressing, but we still had the Roller Derby Moms, which was...
 
Meghan: Reassuring. I felt like they really hated us and we had no idea why. When I've watched the Race, it seemed like you'd get out the strongest competitor and that's the reason you'd [muffled]. But it really just seemed like people on the Race didn't like us, genuinely, just really didn't want us there and it made us kinda feel a little crappy. It kinda reminded me of high school when I used to get picked on, so I was just like, "What is this feeling? I am grown up. This shouldn't be happening."
 
 
HitFix: Have you had the chance or desire to talk to the other teams subsequently to see if you relate better outside of that environment?
 
Joey: No, not really.
 
Meghan: No.
 
Joey: We're kinda a little hurt about it still.
 
Meghan: Max tweeted us, "It's just a game," but I don't know. They seemed to get a little personal. There was no reason for us to seek out any friendships from this point.
 
 
HitFix: Going back to Sunday's episode, when you guys got to the mat, Phil noted that there were two different times this season when you arrived at the end thinking you were done, Switzerland and Scotland. How do those two times feel different in your mind, looking back at them?
 
Joey: In Switzerland, for some reason I just didn't believe it. I was like, "There's no way that we're going out." Like, "How did Chuck and Wynona beat us?" Like, "No! This isn't real." So I didn't accept it.
 
Meghan: And I was already there, because after running three miles in the snow and being completely exhausted and just to see them there? It felt like the ultimate... Like, "I slowed us down. I couldn't run fast enough. And we got beat by Chuck and Wynona after running for so long." I had kinda had my breakdown on the Race. But in Scotland, the roles had switched. I was hoping that maybe something had happened like, "Maybe another team was behind us, maybe another someone got a four-hour penalty. You never know!" And then Phil cut to the chase so quick. "You're in last. You got eliminated. Go home."
 
 
HitFix: How hard was it for you guys to watch the Switzerland episode and to see all of the teams just jump in cabs after the cheese-rolling and to watch yourselves go on that three-mile walk?
 
Joey: Oh my God. I cried more for that episode than the one we got eliminated. It just brought back so many memories of just how hard that was and wishing we were able to find a taxi.
 
Meghan: There really were none, though. We took the only option that we could and that was that if we could find a taxi along the way then we would take one, but there wasn't any. That was an emotional episode to rewatch. I started crying again just because it was so sad. I gave it everything I had. I felt like my body was going to freaking shut-down.
 
 
HitFix: Is that something were you come out stronger on the other side? Or just where you come out exhausted and crushed on the other side?
 
Joey: We definitely came out stronger. Berlin was our next Leg and we totally kicked butt that time.
 
 
HitFix: From what we saw, you guys seemed to get along really well out there, but I'd love some drama. Were there any tough moments between the two of you that maybe we didn't see?
 
Joey: Yeah, for sure. We definitely fought a little bit.
 
Meghan: And it was over stupid stuff, though, to be honest. It was stuff like a direction call or a decision being made and we'd kinda fight back and forth like, "No, no, Joey. I think this needs to be done." And he's like, "No, Meghan. I think we need to do this." Or, "We should go this way!" It was silly things like that.
 
Joey: I think even in Scotland, I think they showed a little bit, just trying to find the castle and I was like, "Meghan, I think we passed it." And she was like, "No. Let's just keep going forward." And luckily, we did what she thought and kept going forward, because the castle was up ahead.
 
Meghan: We tried not to bicker at each other in those type of situations, because everything is up for chance. You never know?
 
 
HitFix: In the balance would you say that you guys did better working together than you expected you would?
 
Joey: Yeah, definitely. It took a while for us to get in the groove of it, but once we did, we worked really well together.
 
Meghan: Yeah, there were tasks where we didn't even need to talk to each other and we just worked so quickly and efficiently.
 
 
HitFix: I know you guys spend lots of time watching and critiquing and editing yourselves in order to do your YouTube videos. Did that make you extra critical when it came to watching yourselves and the edit you got on the show?
 
Joey: I was nervous every single episode. Just like, "Oh gosh, what clips are they gonna keep in of me of stupid stuff I said?" But all in all, I think we had a really good edit it really portrayed us like we were on the show.

Meghan: Yeah, when we were on the show, I feel like we didn't change who we were. We definitely were ourselves, just like how you see us on YouTube.
 
 
HitFix: Did anything make it in that you felt embarrassed by?
 
Joey: I don't think so. Just my reactions to stuff and... just the little things. It was like, "Oh gosh."
 
Meghan: It would have been nice if they'd edited out when I fell a few times, but that's OK. It was good television, right?
 

HitFix: What would you guys say that this show has done in terms of your online visibility and the avenues it hope it opens up from here?
 
Joey: It's gotten me recognized a lot at Target...

Meghan: From an older demographic. We usually get recognized by younger kids, but we've been stopped a few more times by moms and stuff like that, which is interesting.
 
Joey: We went to a YouTube convention last month and it's more kids like 13 to 18 is my demographic, but their parents came with them and wanted to take pictures with me too, so it was parents and kids.
 
Meghan: That's been the coolest thing, is our fans are telling us that they're watching the show with their parents and it's kinda cool to see that happen. As far as numbers changes, we haven't really seen anything too drastic from the Race, but the YouTube community has really gotten behind us and helped us and promoted us and been really proud of us being on the show, so we've seen a really huge pool from that.
 

HitFix: And opportunities that might now be presented going forward?
 
Joey: Both of us are pursuing more scripted, acting stuff.
 
Meghan: I'm producing a lot more stuff, too, so it's really exciting.

The Amazing Race: The Yak Chats with Joey and Meghan

Airport mishaps and Double U-Turns faced the teams in the latest leg of The Amazing Race this week, as they continued their trek around the globe with a stop in Scotland. When the first 3 teams, consisting of Max & Katie, Bates & Anthony, and Caroline & Jennifer, grabbed an earlier flight to Scotland, it left Mona & Beth and Joey Graceffa (@JoeyGraceffa) & Meghan Camarena (@Strawburry17) to battle it out at the back of the pack. The Double U-Turn, which had the teams make (and then eat) haggis and roll barrels of Whiskey up-hill to a party, slowed down the YouTube hosts and ultimately led to their elimination this week. The Yak sat down with the peppy dynamic duo to discuss their race around the world.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The Yak: It was a great leg of the race, but it was tough to see you battle it out with Mona and Beth for last place.
Meghan: Right? That was sad.
Joey: Yeah.

The Yak: So, I have to know, which was tougher: the barrels of Whiskey or the haggis?
Joey: The barrels.
Meghan: Barrels.
Joey: They were like 10 times harder.
Meghan: That haggis was delicious! Haggis has a bad rap! We hadn’t eaten all day, so maybe it did taste just like chocolate cake for some reason, but that thing was amazing. The barrels were a complete hell.

The Yak: Obviously, both you and the Moms had to do both Detours thanks to the Double U-Turn. How far behind were you once you made it to the Pit Stop?
Joey: We don’t really know, but we want to say it was maybe a half-hour or so.
Meghan: We really had no clue. As we were racing to the mat, we were thinking, “Maybe… Maybe!”, but we had no idea.

The Yak: If you had made it onto the earlier flight with the other 3 teams, who would you have U-Turned or would you have used it at all?
Meghan: It would have been the hockey players.
The Yak: Did you perceive them as the biggest threats?
Meghan: They’re professional athletes. They’re everyone’s biggest threats.
Joey: Yeah, people are stupid for not seeing that.

The Yak: Joey, before you left for the race, you mentioned you had a fear of flying. Were you able to overcome that fear and were there any flights in particular that were terrifying for you?
Joey: I got over that fear real quick! Also, being with all the teams helped. It wasn’t a problem.

The Yak: What was your favorite location along the race?
Joey: Berlin, Germany, for sure. Well, I guess that was the most fun.
Meghan: I liked Bora Bora.
Joey: Yeah, Bora Bora. New Zealand.
Meghan: New Zealand.
Joey: Those were both great!

The Yak: What was your favorite challenge?
Meghan: It wasn’t a challenge, but when we got to jump off the building [The Park Inn in Berlin, Germany], that was sick.
Joey: Yeah, that was fun. My favorite Road Block was the labyrinth one inside the Salon.

The Yak: Even after being prepared for the race, did anything surprise you during your journey?
Meghan: This sounds foolish, but I really wasn’t expecting the amount of hate that we got from all the other teams. I felt like I was back in high school and being picked on. It felt like we were being picked on, and it was the worst.
Joey: Also, I thought we’d have a lot more money for food and stuff. I was hungry the entire race! I should have packed some Clif bars! The way they give us the money, they don’t tell us what’s ahead. We could have used the money for a cab or for a cheeseburger. It was our choice.
The Yak: That’s good advice for anyone that’s planning on applying for future seasons of the race. Make sure you come prepared!
Joey: Definitely bring Clif bars!

The Yak: Speaking of being prepared, did you do anything special to prepare yourself for the race once you found out you had been selected as one of the teams?
Joey: I was working with a personal trainer five days a week. So, I was prepared that way. We also watched a ton of previous seasons.
The Yak: Did you find that it helped you out on the race by studying the previous seasons?
Joey: Yeah, it gave us an idea of what to expect for our season.
Meghan: For sure!
Joey: There’s no way to know what we’re going to encounter, but it’s good to know what people do in different situations.

The Yak: Were you able to get close with any of the other teams beyond Mona & Beth, and have you kept in touch since the race ended?
Meghan: John and Jessica. We’re really close with them, and they actually live pretty close to us, so we still talk with them.
Joey: Yeah, we’ve hung out with them a few times.

The Yak: Was there ever a time when you weren’t entirely sure of yourselves or you second-guessed what you were doing on the race?
Joey: We were second-guessing ourselves all the time, and I think that’s what really screwed us up.
Meghan: At the beginning of the race, we did that a lot! Then we realized that we needed to make a decision and commit to it. In New Zealand, we did that the whole time, and we could have finished way sooner then we had, so after that, we stopped second-guessing ourselves.
Joey: Also, for a lot of the race we were busy worrying about what the other teams were up to, so in Berlin when we didn’t see any of the other teams, we focused on what we had to do and we came in second place. I think that was the key to it.
The Yak: Is that good advice for future teams: Make a gut decision and stick with it?
Joey: Yeah.
Meghan: Definitely.

The Yak: What’s next for the two of you?
Meghan: Geez, who knows what’s next? We’re definitely pursuing more acting and continuing our YouTube channel. Also, seeing what opportunities open up after this. We’re really creative people, so anything that has to do with that, I’m sure you’ll see us being a part of that.

The Yak: We appreciate you sitting down with us, and we wish you the best of luck to you in the future!
Joey and Meghan: Thank you!

It became moot with the Chuck and Wynona penalty, but I believe that Joey and Meghan made a strategic error in not calling for the taxi at the hotel and waiting for it there. That approach seemed too passive to them but actually should have gotten them to the pit stop ahead of Chuck and Wynona.

The last two seasons haven't produced many with Allstar potential, but I think Joey and Meghan deserve a chance.  I enjoyed the recaps they did too, racers don't normally seem to do much like that.

Hey folks,

haven't posted in quite a while, but I felt rather strongly about this. I know Meghan and Joey had their share of supporters (including me) but I was quite surprised and rather dumbfounded by the many negative comments and (I almost want to say) hatred that they received. I actually expected not to like them, but immediately had to revise my opinion and was very fond of them by episode 3. Of course, I wasn't there personally, so don't know what might have happened off camera, but from what I saw on the race and also during their recaps (which I highly recommend) they came over as very pleasant and fun people. Just my two cents ...

Of course, I wasn't there personally, so don't know what might have happened off camera, but from what I saw on the race and also during their recaps (which I highly recommend) they came over as very pleasant and fun people. Just my two cents ...

They seem like really nice people in real life, but on the show, I really didn't like their alliance and Joey's fake high-pitched voice.

I really think most of the audience liked them, but obviously those who shout loudest get to think they are the main opinion on the internet, and some of it was obviously prejudiced.

The people on Facebook sure don't like Max & Katie either.

Then again, they don't watch the Behind the Scenes Clips, so they hardly get an accurate view of what the teams are really like. :res:

I believe some people disliked Meghan & Joey because they have a different mentality than everyone else, they're the first "hipster"-type of team on the race in the same way Kent & Vyxsin were the first team of flamboyant scenesters. Joey's over-the-topness might some people (usually over 25-ish) the wrong way, but they resonate pretty well with the younger generation (at least in the US).

I got used to it in the end.  :lol3: They are just a fun loving team and I grew to adore it eventually. So much better to watch a positive team than the moms, who were like nothing but competitive and slightly mean/evil towards the end.

True. Joey and Meghan were somewhat childish, but at least they weren't acting all cutthroat and bickery.

I do. They were annoying. VERY annoying. They whined constantly. They were friends with the wrong people (mean moms and possible dominants).  Not to mention that Joey had a terrible fashion sense. I mean, leggings? Seriously? Sorry, but they just don't deserve that title.

what does fashion sense have to with dynamic duo? :lol: And I didn't ever hear them whining, except when Joey had to touch a scorpion, so that means constantly? Btw Max&Katie weren't mean and the moms were mean? Just look the insider videos and rewatch all the episodes, and notice how Max&Katie blathered about Joey&Meghan almost all the time.

I'm sorry, how in the world are Mona and Beth mean? They were a little bit Under the Radar, but they weren't mean at all. And plus, fashion sense does not determine your racing ability, and their "whining" is mainly Joey being all excited.

1) The fashion sense thing was just a minor quibble of mine.  It wasn't meant to be taken as a major point.
2) Ok. Maybe the moms weren't mean, but they were definitely overly competitive and somewhat negative. Also, you're talking to a Maxie fan here. :luvya: To be honest, no one on the race liked Joey and Megan besides the derbies.
3) By now, I pretty much figured out you're a big fan. You were probably oblivious to their whining, but I heard it all. They whined about Max when he said J&J's decision was quite stupid, they whined about being U-turned (anyone would, though), they whined about not being ahead when they thought so ect.   

Anyway I'm done with this debate. My point was to address the main reasons I, and frankly other non-Joey and Megan fans, don't like them. Nuff said. :lol:

Joey apparently is now the creator and host of a YouTube Red Reality-Competition show called "Escape the Night" which is basically a mixture of Whodunnit and The Quest (in the way that some of it is definitely scripted, but the tasks aren't and there are actual eliminations).

Quote
Welcome to "Escape the Night." In this surreality competition series, hosted by Joey Graceffa, 10 guests are invited from the modern world to attend a dinner at his newly acquired mansion estate, which has been locked in the 1920's; when America was roaring... roaring with madness. This is a dinner party to die for. No one is safe.

It's a bit shaky but I'm alright with it so far (I MISS WHODUNNIT).

I saw the first two episodes so far and omg Glozell Green is clearly the breakout star :lol: <3

It's also important to note though, that:

Show content
It is a lot like Whodunnit in the beginning, in the sense that Episode One is more focused on introducing everyone and then having one "die" first before Episode Two begins the competition portion a bit more.

Source: http://www.realityblurred.com/realitytv/2016/06/youtube-red-escape-the-night-review/

Episode One is below if you're interested (via Joey's channel):
