With tonight's Fantasy Factory finale just a few hours away, we've been taking some quiet time to reflect on all the laughs, thrills and 'say what?'s from Season 2. Like, rememba when Chanel almost beatSteve Berra in a girl vs. boy rap battle? The guys were so impressed! And it wasn't just a fluke -- Chanel's got real skillz. In fact, our cameras caught her just a few weeks ago freestylin' about what it's like to always work the dude shift. Check it:
Speaking of Chanel's job at the Factory ... take a look at this video of Rob grading her performance as a receptionist. The good news? She's got perfect attendance.
Not exactly a glowing review, but it sounds like Chanel's set for life if she and Ryan Sheckler are planning on makin' some babies. So, are they really? After the jump, hear Chanel clear up any recent rumors about sk8r boi crushes and her lack of office productivity. Read more...
Okay, so technically he's not royalty ... yet. But you gotta admit, Ryan Shecker looks pretty damn good sitting on that throne. True, it was only a loaner from pro BMXer Travis Pastrana, (who sat there Tuesday night while his friends and Nitro Circus buds roasted toasted him for having the most skills/least game in extreme sports). But we're thinking the Life of Ryan star could probably get used to this whole being-treated-like-a-king thing. Anyhow, peep these pix of Sheck getting Toasted With Travis and get a behind-the-scenes look at his new "Got milk?" ad. It does a body good.
This past Tuesday night, Travis Pastrana got the shock of his life when Ryan Sheckler, his Nitro Circus peeps and some cutthroat comedians surprised him with a tribute-slash-roast (Red Bull Gets Toasted with Travis Pastrana) that was two-parts naughty, one-part nice lewd, crude, hilarious -- and mostly unairable.
And while we don't have the whole thing on video (fyi, there'd be more bleeps than you could count), we do have pix and video of all the slightly-more-PG pre-show action. So checkout Jolene Van Vugt's gnarly arm cast, hear Travis' boys explain why dude's a total psycho, and kick yourself for missing the chance to see Verne "Mini Me" Troyer and Steve-O in the same room.
+ Bonus: More pix from Travis' Toast, after the jump! Read more...
On tonight's season finale of Fantasy Factory, Rob Dyrdek dared to ask the question, "What do you get pro skateboarders that have everything?" And by his standards, a mechanical, dusty monkey from 1942 qualifies as a perfect gift. (Or at least a "very, very weird prize from a very weird place.")
While Ryan Sheckler, the clear winner of the skateboarding contest, was awarded a used car for first prize, we're not so sure it was the coolest/weirdest thingamabob in the lineup ... especially since Ryan ultimately traded it for the sword of excalibur.
What do you think? Was Ryan crazy for not keeping the Fiero, or were some of the other things on the list better options, especially for a guy who's got everything? Take the poll and tell us: Which prize would you have wanted to win?
We always kinda wondered what a skate-off between Rob Dyrdek and (Chanel's crush!) Ryan Sheckler would look like. And while we're not sure WHO'S participating in this week's Battle of the Boards, it looks like 'dem boys are going at it in a little speedracing competition. So who's got the sickest ride? We're not sure, but all we can say is, these two have seen The Fast and the Furious waaaaaay too many times ...
+ Holy, finale funbag! Tune in Sunday night at 9pm for the season finale of Rob Dyrdek's Fantasy Factory and watch as sweet-but-misunderstood Chanel gets all Mrs. Robinson-y with Ryan Sheckler. Best show ever?
It wasn't such a shocker that Rob Dyrdek's rapping receptionist, Chanel, would turn out to be such a hit with Fantasy Factory viewers. She's a "young, beautiful, talented sweet girl," Rob told MTV News' Tim Kash at last night's red carpet premiere of The Phone. But we do find it sorta strange (and sucky) that she's also very misunderstood, according to her boss.
For those of you who dare to call Chanel "dumb," we retaliate with the video clip below. And a big "Your Mama." Chanel: You're a rhyming goddess and those Factory boys would be lost (and really bored) without you.
++Don't miss the season finale of Rob Dyrdek's Fantasy Factory (Sunday at 9pm) when Ryan Sheckler stops by to compete for Chanel's heart (among other things).
Both Bam Margera and Ryan Sheckler have proven they've got the moves -- but in the end, only one can go down as the best skater in MTV reality show history. So who's wheelin' and dealin' and who's still learning how to rock n' roll? Watch this video showcasing the stars' gnarliest tricks then let us know which skaterboy is your all-time fave!
Take one fresh slice of hotness (teen pro-skater Ryan Sheckler) and mix with special seasonings (loyal friends, adorable younger bro) in large container (sweet new bachelor pad). Add a cup of water (tropical pool/waterfall) and a dash of food coloring (graffiti on the bedroom wall!). Mix everything until tasty and let chill for 30 minutes.
There's nothing like starting your day off with a bit of good news. And we just heard the bestest, most amazing announcement ever. Pro boarder Ryan Sheckler and his hottie teen entourage are back for Season 3 of Life of Ryan!! Even better? Now that Ry's moved into his own swingin' bachelor pad, we'll get to see how he does WITHOUT Mom checking in on him 24/7.
Think it's gonna be party central? Or just a cool testosterzone? Either way, you're not gonna wanna miss a thing, so check back soon for more exclusive behind-the-scenes pics of Sheckler's new digs (Like this one of his graffiti zone-slash-bedroom!) and for all the dirty deets on Season 3.
When last we saw Ryan Sheckler, he was looking extremely cute (and well-vested!) on the red carpet at Sunday night's VMAs. Now, we hear the Life of Ryan star will be taking that handsome mug of his and putting it right where it belongs: on the big screen.
That's right, folks -- in the not-so-distant future, Sheckler will be co-starring with Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, Ashley Judd and Mary Poppins herself (i.e. Julie Andrews) in 20th Century Fox's upcoming new flick, The Tooth Fairy.
And despite the film's Mary-Kate-Olsen-thin premise (The Rock is forced to wear a pink dress/tights for exhibiting unsportsmanlike behavior!) we're looking forward to seeing Sheckler hone his acting chops.
Hey, the way we see it? If a pro-wrestler can convince the world he's an action-movie star, and a former action-movie star is currently the Governator of California, it's only a matter of time before our fave pro-skateboarder is thanking the Academy.
