}The Real World: Las Vegas was the twelfth season of MTV's popular reality television series The Real World, which focuses on seven diverse strangers living together for several months in a different city each season, as cameras follow their lives and interpersonal relationships. First airing in 2002, the Las Vegas cast lived in a converted penthouse suite on the 28th floor of the Las Vegas Palms Casino and Resort. The Las Vegas season was the second highest-rated season of the series after 2002's Chicago installment.

Assignment

Every season of the The Real World, beginning with its fifth season, has included the assignment of a season-long group job or task to the housemates. The Last Vegas housemates had various jobs throughout the season involving the Palms Casino and Resort in which they lived, including promotional work for the night club, "Rain in the Desert", cocktail waiting, and go-go dancing.

Cast

* Alton Williams
* Arissa Hill
* Brynn Smith
* Frank Roessler
* Irulan Wilson
* Steven Hill
* Trishelle Cannatella

Season highlights

*Trishelle and Steven had an on-again-off again sexual relationship, which at one point resulted in a pregnancy scare for Trishelle (due to their seemingly utter refusal to use condoms). Trishelle later posed for Playboy magazine after the show.
*On the castmates' third day in the suite, three of them (Steven, Trishelle and Brynn) enjoyed a threesome in the jacuzzi.
*Alton and Irulan began a romantic relationship, which resulted in the break up of Irulan and her boyfriend back at home, Gabe. Alton and Irulan were still together by the time they both appeared on their first season of the spinoff show Real World/Road Rules Challenge, but later broke up.
*Arissa had difficulty trusting her roommates, and at times exhibited a temper. She would later pose for Playboy magazine after the show.
*Brynn experienced anxiety attacks, including one in which she threw a fork at Steven, which almost got her kicked out of the house.

Trivia

*The owner of The Palms Casino Hotel, where the season was filmed, asked for production to cast exclusively people over 21 years old. Thus this was the first season in which all the castmates were at least that old.
*The Palms demolished over 6 rooms to make the hotel suite that the season was filmed in, at a cost of over two million dollars.
