MTV's True Life

WVU alpha phi · #1 12-01-2008, 05:18 PM

I did a search but didn't find a thread about any recent True Life episodes. I was watching reruns last night and caught the "I'm a Southern Belle" episode following the lives of 3 girls in Oxford, Mississippi. It looks like atleast one of the girls, Raini (pageant girl with the boyfriend) was in a sorority at Ole Miss. It also got me thinking of the Made episode a few years back of another girl from Ole Miss who wanted to be on Broadway- she was in a sorority too but I never caught which one.

It's really just out of curiousity, but does anyone know which NPCs those two girls belonged to?

Wasn't her name Raini Fountain or something odd like that?

I'm not sure, I wish I would've paid more attention when they announce her name during the pageant. I'm bored at work, guess I'll do some googling to find some answers.

Hmmm...I have no idea she was in one. I was trying to figure out the girl from "I'm on a Diet" from OSU which sorority she was in, and couldn't find it.

I do love "True Life"...its the only MTV show left that I really do like to watch!

Well, her last name IS Fountain, and this is pretty much all I could dig up.

And this interesting article, I've never heard anything about this before.

I found her on Facebook, and it doesn't seem like she belongs to the Ole Miss network. It just says "Hattiesburg, MS" as her network.

She was pretty annoying, especially when she was talking to her bf before the pageant and kind of being a brat. I wonder if they're still together.

I that that episode was pretty interesting, esp. the one young lady (I think her name was Lee Ann) who was 24 and considered an "old maid" and the other girl who was dealing with her parents' divorce.

Double post, but I DVR this show and I just watched the I'm in a Love Triangle episode.Somebody please tell me they saw the guy with the girlfriend of 2 yrs and the babymama (who also appears to be a gf)? I thought it was really creepy how he said "what if our baby could have 3 parents instead of one." Bizarre.

Oh and the other dude is just too pretty and full of himself. I LOLed when he went to the girls' house with flowers (with her BOYFRIEND there) thinking she would get back with him on the spot. That went well.

I saw that as I was flipping through and figured that I'd missed something, because that guy couldn't possibly be asking his girlfriend to be the girlfriend of him AND THE BABYMAMA. Apparently, that's really what was happening. As my 2 year old would say, "WoooooOOOOOoooooow".

I read somewhere that Raini was a Theta and that the other girl Leigh Ann was a Kappa.

Do you have links or anything?

Raini isn't listed anywhere on the Theta website. I don't know how "easy" it would be if she rushed as a sophomore (fall '08) but she isn't listed as a Fall '07 pledge--which would have been when she was a freshman.

An update at the end of the show said Raini and her boyfriend were planning on transferring to Southern Mississippi the following year. Maybe she rushed there? Still wouldn't explain her not being on Theta's website though.

I can't remember which one was which, but one of the girls was a Kappa at Ole Miss.

That episode is the only time MTV has ever filmed at a place I've been to, I think.

Hmmm maybe. The Southern Miss Theta website hasn't been updated, so maybe she did rush. I've seen her "Miss America online" profile and she doesn't mention a sorority affiliation anywhere.
