We'd like to say we loved all our Real World-ers equally, but the truth is, life's one big popularity contest and it's time we found out who's swingin' with the in-crowd. Think CJ, Joey, Bronne and Derek had it going on? Or were you more down with the ladies (i.e. Emilee, Jonna, Jasmine and Ayiiia)? Take our poll and tell us which RW roomie has you missin' Mexico already!

Real World: Cancun airs Wednesdays at 10pm, but you don’t have to wait ’til then to check out the raw footage. Every day, we’ll be sifting through the ‘Real World Dailies‘ to make sure you’re getting your fill of the Cancun crew. (Tough job, we know, but hey — someone’s gotta do it!)

Now that Joey's back, CJ's got some competition in the hearttrob department and Bronne no longer has the Loudest Dude In The House title on permanent lockdown. Watch as the three overgrown fratties explore their sillier sides in a heavy metal-inspired group confessional while Derek proves he's not quite ready to get down with his bad self.

Bronne and CJ missed Joey so much they invented his phony (but hot!) replacement -- but from the looks of it, the REAL eighth roomie is alive and well ... and right outside the Real Worlders' door! But are you glad Joey's (apparently?!) coming back for the Cancun finale? Take our poll and tell us whether you think dude deserves a second chance!

This isn't the first time the girls in the house have accused Jonna of cozying up to the guys. And while they're not exactly wrong (did ya SEE her wrestling with CJ/Bronne at the end!?) we also can't say we blame Jonna for defecting to to Team XY.

Sure, the boys aren't perfect -- take, for instance, Bronne's Crazy Hitler Rant -- but at least they're not gossipy and passive aggressive like the ladies. (Unless you think whispering meanly is really code for "We wanna be for your friend.")

And after watching the boy/girl/Jonna divide unfold again (hello, deja vu!) we wanna know whether Jonna a. can't be friends with girls (Ayiiia's theory), b. thrives on male attention (Emilee and Jasmine's theory) or c. legitimately dislikes Ayiiia, Emilee and Jasmine (our theory).

So which is it? Tell us whether you think Jonna hates all girls -- or just the ones who talk about her behind her back (and call her a man-stealer). Sheez. Women.

On the off-chance you're not familiar with the current peso-to-dollar conversion rate, we did a little mental math (ok, FINE, we used Google's Currency Converter) and learned that the cost of CJ's freedom came out to roughly $131.87. And after CJ's friends scrounged up enough money to cover the bribe -- er, super official Mexican fine -- it was off to Vegas, where CJ managed to impress the NFL scouts (despite Tweedledum and Tweedledee's Halftime Show).

Natch, we were blown away by CJ's skillz (who knew he could do anything besides win Hot Body contests and awkwardly hit on girls!?), plus we liked watching Derek and Bronne cheer him on, in their silly, too-loud "We think 'dom' is a word" kinda way.

Anyhow, just wanted to say congratulations, CJ. Not only did you keep a totally straight face while lying to Joey (ps, this Lauren chick sounds hot!), but you went from Mexican prison to NFL glory in 72 hours. Who says this kid's got no game!?

The Real World gods must be smiling down on CJ, cause dude's boring-ish football tryouts just HAPPEN to be in the one place crazier than Cancun! Yep, because Spring Break wasn't ridiculous enough, next week's CJ's flying the boys down to Vegas to be his personal cheerleaders! Watch as Derek and Bronne get the invitation of a lifetime while Jonna finds out she's in for an all-girls' weekend. (Hmm, did somebody say foursome??)

Joey's gone. Bronne split. Even Lupa (the disembodied cornrows chick) is swimmin' with the fishes. Yep, in two short weeks, we've gone from an 8-person funhouse -- and an even guy-girl ratio -- to a snoozy, 4-gal sixsome. And we're thinking the RW: Cancun digs could use a little more testerone.

C'mon, think about it. These girls aren't allowed to watch tv, listen to the radio or surf the web. They're allowed to go to clubs but not get drunk. And they're living with a snippy gay guy and a dude who makes Dwight from The Office look smooth. They're bored out of their frickin' minds! No wonder that freakishly dull Canadian suddenly seems like a prize worth fighting over.

Then again, throwing a new guy into the mix isn't always a game-changer (remember Nick from RW: Hollywood? We don't!). But hey, with Bronne chatting up stray dogs and living in Casa de Crap, we'll take all the extra help we can get.

Jonna, Emilee and Jasmine were on the verge of tears when they heard Joey was leaving. Derek, Bronne and CJ were walking around like someone just died. But while everyone else was choking back sobs, Ayiiia was grinning like Heath Ledger in The Dark Knight. Which, given their backstory, makes perfect sense. (Boy meets girl. Boy tortures girl. Girl celebrates big-time when boy goes home.) So what's the problem?

With CJ flirting up a storm (however awkwardly) and Joey setting the new record for revolving door hookups, Bronne's post-Cougar sexploits have taken a backseat ... until now. This week, the house's resident jokester is the one doing the sexiling, with a little help from his friendly neighborhood blonde.

Get a sneak peek of the action from tomorrow night's Real World: Cancun, add "mad diddlin'" to your RW phrasebooks, and don't even THINK about touching that remote control! Right after the episode, Joey, Jonna, Bronne and Jasmine will be swinging by the After Show for a no-holds-barred round table with host (and RW/RR alum) Mark Long. Boo-yah!

+ Tune in tomorrow night at 10pm for an all-new Real World: Cancun, plus catch the After Show immediately afterwards (hence the unoriginal name, AFTER Show)! That's 11pm on air, 11:30pm online on the RW homepage.

We haven't seen much of Pat since Jasmine decided to take a chance on the could-be player. But according to CJ and Joey, his disappearing act is no coincidence. Hear the boys weigh in on Jasmine's latest fatal attraction and explain why clinginess (and glass breaking?!) is the ultimate turnoff.
