I’ve been hating Tami Roman since she was on season two of The Real World. Girl… I hated that bitch with an intensity that has made me ignore anything she has done for the past TWENTY FOUR years. That is some hate right there. She accused (falsely in my opinon) of sexually assaulting her. David and Tami were having a minor argument on the show and he ran into her room and pulled the covers off of her while she was in her bra and panties. Tami went batshit. And David was thrown out of the house. I was FURIOUS.
I don’t watch whatever reality shows she is on, but HATE THE BITCH. Don’t need to pay her any attention. Not worth my mother fucking time. I’m OLD SCHOOL Reality TV, bitches. I was watching Reality TV before you were born.
And then…
She started the the Bonnet Chronicles. I love THIS Tami Roman. So, Tami, I officially forgive you for The Real World. You are welcome.
Check the bitch out on The Gram She is all Uber Christian Meets Foul Mouthed Violent Bitch.
I had no idea Tami Roman was on The Real World until I saw this post. No surprise she was batshit crazy back then.
I so feel you TT!!! I watch the shows she’s on so she entered my good graces a little while ago but with The Real World forever being the first reality show to me, I’ve never appreciated how her crazy got David kicked out!!
Chi, who are you and where did you come from? I love that you watched RW from the beginning. Not THAT was real reality before it was fucking scripted.
Did you hate Beth, too? She drove me nuts….and then every time she was on the Challenge..UGH.
??. I did. HATED both of dem bitches
Tami had her jaw wired shut on RW to lose weight does anyone remember that
I remember that, and her abortion. Always had mad respect for Jon, because he was against it but took care of her afterward.
I hated David, and thought he was rough on Tami because she wasn’t attracted to him. What he did was wrong, but it wasn’t necessarily “assault” or “kick out of the house” worthy (especially in retrospect – they were FAR more tolerant of Puck, when his disgusting behavior put Pedro’s health at risk in my opinion)
I mean, fuckballs, they even let that guy stay in Seattle after he slapped the shit out of the girl (Irene?) who had Lyme Disease (no, really, she had it!)
David should have been kicked out anyway. He had choked Jon at one point and attacked the Irish guy at another. He was 1 step away from so violently assaulting someone that he was a major liability.
I agree. I hated David. He was always angry and mean to all of them. That was just the last straw. Maybe it wasn’t that big of a deal to get him kicked out, but when you add up everything, then yeah it was.
“It wasn’t not funny!”
I will never be able to look at Tami without that phrase popping into my head, followed quickly by “true story” in Jon’s country twang. That was some good stuff, right there.
Me too, the Real World was the gateway drug into my reality tv addiction. It was captivating. Especially the first season in NYC- I could watch it ad infinitum. It’s funny to think I was embarrassed about my Real World infatuation way back then, in my 20’s, but now I’m in my 50’s and I’m still hooked. Beth Stolarczyk, from season 2/Los Angeles was the first person I really cringe-watched and hated on but couldn’t look away from. There have been so many cringe-worthy folks since then but she is the original. No doubt Tami brought the drama–and I never watched her other reality shows either. I haven’t heard of the Bonnet Chronicles but I’ll be checking it out since you seem to be my reality show connection/drug-pusher. lol.
I was like 12 or 13 when the first season came on, and I have been addicted to reality tv ever since. I remember trying to explain that show to people that didn’t watch it. It was like the best thing ever. I would get so mad if my parents wanted me to do something while that show was on. Memories memories.
I just think Tami did that to become relavent she accused Evelyn of falsly lying on her ex husband and shutting his career down. If your going to be demanding everyone else to keep it real she should to. She falsly accused David she was laughing and joking the entire time and flip out on him when he took the covers off I think he was truthfully playing. After that incident she became relavent. The whole blanket incident was ridiculous to get somebody kicked of the show especially since she was pretending like it was funny….
delurking to say I hated her too! For me, it wasn’t just getting David kicked off (which was so completely shitty and wrong) it was also how blatantly homophobic she was towards the second Beth. So much ugh.
PS love your website – just discovered it a few months ago and am now hopelessly addicted : )
YES! THAT TOO. You are reminding me of all the reasons I hated her. LOL. Welcome to my house of crazy. Please ignore the typos, they are part of the overall experience. 🙂
I was watching real world back then too and I hated how she got the guy kicked off. But what stands out in my mind was her having an abortion on camera. I was shocked she would get on TV with something soooo personal. After that I remember her being on oprah when she was married to the nba player. Next then you know she’s showing up on BBW divorced and broke. Her behavior on that show completely turned me off from her but it seems like she’s redeemed herself with these bonnet chronicles. They’re hilarious!
Her hashtags are funny.
I forgot her Gerri g him kicked for pulling off the covers until I read this! Now I remember thinking she was making a big deal out of nothing at the time. I do remember her abortion and how I thought she was so brave (and crazy) to admit to it publically. I watched her for a bit on BB Wives when she first joined and thought she was still crazy and still entertaining as hell.
OMG it’s been so many years since the Real World!
We is OLD AF.
Old AF. I think that’s what I want on my birthday cake, Saturday… when I turn 50. #lordhelpme #feelingOAF #ihatemyownbirthdaysomuch #makingitallaboutmyselfagain #stillwatchingrealitytvtomakemefeelbetteraboutmyownlife #lovethisfuckingblog #lovemostofyalltoo #thankstamarafortheenjoyment #hashtagrunon

I was addicted to Reality Tv as soon as I watched the Real World Season I in the ’90s. At 28, i was older than the cast but I loved that show. I remember Tammy really well, the abortion, working at the AIDS clinic and wiring her mouth shut to loose weight (I knew someone who did that-fucking crazy). Irene got involved with the mess with David because she was cop and the other Beth in the house (total drama queen) egged Tami on, salivating at the drama.
I wonder if that country-singer is still a virgin?
Probably.
I agree with you, Sliceo’pie, that drama queen Beth egged Tami on, along with country-boy Jon. It was a train wreck. I was 28 too, and felt like I was way too old to be so caught up in it…so what does that make me now? Oy vey.
Oh my damn….I could never quite put my finger on why I didnt fcuk w/Tami Roman, and totally forgot it was because of that stunt she pulled on The Real World! Im with you Tamaratattles, I forgive her now, because The Bonnet Chronicles is the biz!
I’ve hated that bitch for 24 years. 24 years, man, it was serious hate. But this Bonnet Chronicles shit is Errythang.
Your honesty is hilarious…
I did not like her on BB wives maybe by the 3rd season she was on she became tolerable.
Wiring jaw shut is so early 1980’s
I’m in the old club. I hated everything about her all these years too. And didn’t she have her jaw wired shut to lose weight too? Man she was a piece of work.
i’m 33 and i remember this woman and remember that episode with the comforter. i also watched season 1 of the real world. it was so good back then.
season one of the real world basically started the reality tv genre. it was revolutionary in it’s time, especially to have an hiv positive person (pedro) on tv.
She went crazy, but Beth S (camera hog and wannabe) did NOT help the situation. Oh yes, I faithfully watched The Real World until Miami (even going so far as to plan a trip to KY to see Jon sing, which I never got around to doing.)
Oh yes, Beth was much more horrid than Tami. Tami was cray cray, Beth was just plain evil.
Beth was the problem. I’m going to google her now while hoping she still sucks BRB
Confirmed. She’s 50 and still trying to look like she did on RW. Still dead inside.
Probably still trying to be famous. Other than RW I’ve only seen her, briefly, in that Pauly Shore movie Son In Law.
Beth and Jon had a Real World reunion last spring, and she was also on WWHL with Andy a few years ago. The Beth-hate is a real thing, they made an “Everybody Hates Beth” montage. She seems oblivious which is infuriating.
24 years is WAY too soon to give up grudges. Still dead to me for David.
By the way, in a weird connection years later I met the guy who officiated at Pedro’s wedding. Good guy, still very involved in AIDS work.
I agree. It’s only been 24 years. I don’t know what she is doing now, but I won’t watch it.
LMAO!! I say “It wasn’t not funny!” to this day! Tami was a hot mess then and an even hotter mess now! I was an OG Real World watcher and also old as AF! Good stuff, TT!
ME TOO
Oh my gosh, me too! That and “TROOOO STORAAAY” like Jon.
I’m like the majority couldn’t stand Tami for what she did to David. Old school reality when it was reality lol…I do love bonnet chronicles. She grew I grew we all grew
What was the name of the girl on Season 2 who was a cop? I always thought she was so pretty. Haven’t thought about these people in a looong time!
It was Irene and she is still with her hot cop fiance she married on the show! Awww ?
She also wired her jaw shut to lose weight. Just a tad extreme in about every possible way back then.
I concur with this blog statement. I as well felt some type of way towards her from the potrayal of her characteristics on RW. But if any of you recall when on the reunion special of RW and Heather B checked that ass it will forever be imbedded in my mind because Tammi fell all the way back.
I was no fan of reality TV with screaming and arguing until I met the housewives. Thanks for reminding us all to stop the hate after 24yrs; there is always hope for redemption for everyone of us. I do like these Bonnet Chronicles.
Tami has not aged well since her MTV days.
I don’t know – we’re the same age, and lots of my same-age friends are starting to give up/look like crap. we old. she’s looking good to me.
Never give up, never give in, fight fight fight.
Real World 4 life ?
Pedro forever in my heart.
Also they did Lyme fakery FIRST.
Also that POS Congressman and his wife who is the biggest disappointment ever I just want to go back in time and hate her. I know their name. I refuse to say it.
Lol
It isn’t not funny!! – me, to this day. It’s like a club! An old lady club!
MTV showed the whole series from the beginning some time ago, I don’t remember exactly when. I caught some of it. Those catty-cornered camera angles didn’t age well, but damn what a blast from the past. It was so organic back then. Made today’s fakery look so much more glaring by comparison.
And Beth was indeed a turd.

Y’all are welcome.
Thank you!!!! That was great!
TT, congrats on keeping the old good ones and acquiring a new group of good ones. WRG, it’s all you. ?
I’m literally obsessed now!
I rushed to comment so I may have missed it. But does anyone remember when Tami got her jaw wired shut to lose weight. That was my first introduction to extreme dieting other than weight loss shakes. And let’s not forget the dating show she went on.
I hated Tammy on the Real world. I remember there was a reunion a few years later with 3 or 4 diffetent cast and she showed up married to a basketball player and pregnant. Beth totally outed her and said she married him for fame and money. I don’t remember her ever joining any of the challenges. Just can’t stand her!
Yoooooooo!! First off, I hated her for the EXACT SAME REASON! I can believe someone else held a grudge for that long with my ass. David was my boy on that show and that was some B.S. She still owe him an apology and shit.. LMAO
I thought one of the online streaming places was streaming the first season of RW and now I can’t find it.
Dammit!
My favorite Real World was New York 1 when the cast had very little money and fought over paying the phone bill and buying food. I think they actually had to go hungry sometimes for lack of money. I liked Julie best, the innocent girl from Alabama, and hunky Eric. Poor Kevin was the first of what some people later described as the “angry young black male” in each cast. The original reality show was the documentary about the Loud Family called “An American Family” on PBS. The parents divorced during the series because of the father’s infidelity and one of the sons, Lance, came out as gay.
OMG TT you have brought me back!
Real World was my original reality tv gateway drug too.We didn’t have 300 channels then either and in college, we would just let it play on marathon all day, even if it was a rerun we would rewatch and revisit the same scenes we already knew. Between this and a brief pause for DOOL it was the only thing on TV.
