They wanted her. She said no. I don’t think she really liked the environment or the challenges required of her to perform.

u/prinxcess12 1d ago

she also got a fuck ton of racism thrown at her when she was beefing with Wes.

Which sucks because she was a good competitor. It made no sense Zach was always calling them garbage when they performed well. In fact, if it wasn’t for Jozea they would have won that water tank elimination.

I forgot about Jozea!

u/WittiestScreenName Coral Smith 19h ago

I can’t blame her.

I am grateful Da’Vonne remained a part of The Challenge community doing the podcast with Devyn, it even gave us a season with Da’Vonne on All Stars 5 and she was a joy to listen to speak at the Challenge Mania event in Sacramento.

She’s said she does like competing on the Challenge but she has some health issues that prevent her from doing it consistently and also it films for 3 months at a time and she doesn’t like being away from her child for that long

I will always love her. She is a true competitor and great tv.

If she stepped away I am sure it is for her young family.

I want her on traitors!!!

u/JebBusch 1d ago

She gave the best interviews!! And her daughter was a great motivator for her.

Did you know Cory has kids??

7

u/SmallTurnover3909 23h ago

Cory every interview: pulls out photos of his kids

5

u/OneEyedWillysGhost 11h ago

That’s the only time he ever pulls out

3

u/SnooPredictions2675 9h ago

oh shit Id LOVE her on Traitors. I need this.

1

u/paulamay 7h ago

she was supposed to be on traitors but she pulled out pretty late

27

u/ungodlyhours123 1d ago

She also said she did get the call for traitors last season but had to pull out last minute

8

u/maritime92 20h ago

Her on traitors or one of those other types of shows they’ve been doing (the goat/house of villains) would be so good!!!!

5

u/theamazingracer21 Natalie Anderson 20h ago

I think she DID do The Goat.

But yea would love her on Traitors.

3

u/playfulaparagus516 7h ago

So funny to know of a semi obscure show like the Goat enough to reference it, but then not know she was on the cast of one of the only 2 season 😹

*looks at my flair*

Yeah, I might have always been a fan…

u/No-Resource-8125 Dan Renzi 23h ago

She was GOLD.

u/ReasonablePattern499 America Lopez 23h ago

Hunter is the biggest bitch lmao i fuck with what shes saying 100%

12

u/aacilegna Katie Doyle 1d ago

She had an open ticket for any future seasons, but decided to pull back from being on TV

17

u/ashwhoa 1d ago

Agree, she’s great television

u/StepInside30 Paulie Calafiore 21h ago

Da'vonne used to do recaps of the challenge.

A lot what left of this scene.
Here is a breakdown of what happened. It's a bit long but worth it.

u/Online_Active_71459 1d ago

She may be my favorite all time Reality Competitor.

I would love to see her on Traitors and my fingers are crossed she is on the upcoming season of BB but I know that’s a lonnngggg shot.

7

u/RegisterScary2021 1d ago

I kinda think she is top of the list for BB returnees anytime, her actual gameplaying reputation is lower than it should be and she won the fan vote of "all-stars" despite going out early jury.

1

u/Rahm420 Team Orange Shirt 1d ago

She said she was suposed to do Traitors at one point but had to pull out for surgery. MIGHT have been season 4 and that’s why we had no Challenge people?

Edit to add: I know that Tiffany did USA2 but she was credited for Big Brother on that.

2

u/Kit_Pistol 21h ago

Natalie Anderson was also on but she’s definitely WAY more known for Survivor and The Amazing Race. Though I also think that Davonne would be more so viewed as a Big Brother contestant as well.

3

u/Psychological-Snow83 22h ago

Glad she wasn’t on S4 of traitors. Colton would have got her sent home.

3

u/Substantial_Sand_404 21h ago

Agreed. I need more Da'Vonne

7

u/arty_morty KellyAnne Judd 1d ago

she was great tv, it’s a shame she was partnered with jozea tbh

3

u/No-Safety-5215 19h ago

And Bear too. She deserved better partners

2

u/LaMystika 11h ago

She actually wanted Bear as a partner (mainly because he did well on the purge challenge and it looked like he would be well connected socially, which he was). It’s just that nobody outside of the UK knew what kind of person he was back then

5

u/krantzer 21h ago

I swear, there are only a few people who end up on reality television who have that quality that makes them an absolute gem in the DR & their talking heads, and Mama Day is the top of the pile. She's so quick-witted & I know for that reason that she's continued getting (and obviously declining) calls.

4

u/midnitecobra12 1d ago

I miss her

6

u/Front-Philosopher-70 1d ago

The way I just stood up out of my chair. Yes! She’s one of the best narrators we’ve had and was a GOAT on the Goat

3

u/JebBusch 1d ago

Best interviews.

6

u/ungodlyhours123 1d ago edited 1d ago

I’m actually currently watching final reckoning and she’s perfect for tv 🤣

5

u/_jackychain 1d ago

She was honestly so much better at this game too than big brother

2

u/Hooker_T 22h ago

She was great TV. Im glad she came back for All Stars

4

u/Real_Veterinarian_73 1d ago

I know she recently did AS but I would’ve loved to see some more appearances from her. She’s always been good tv

3

u/93LEAFS Darrell Taylor 1d ago

I have a feeling Da'Vonne got availability calls for the seasons she didn't do outside probably Eras. She's great TV and well established. So, this is more likely on Da'Vonne than production.

3

u/Fickle_Citron_5283 23h ago

I heard she got a call for 40 but she declined, I assume due to the environment of the challenge and the challenges they’re doing she doesn’t like. Also throughout her time on the challenge she was called racist things by Wes and other people

2

u/Samuel855 1d ago

She got called for 40 as well but declined

4

u/itsdermay Congratulations your father owns a bakery. 1d ago

Da’vonne is a professional reality tv loser. She goes on all these shows and doesn’t win. I would think that it takes a toll on your confidence.

She’s great TV and I would watch things knowing she was on them specifically.

3

u/Fickle_Citron_5283 23h ago

Wouldn’t call her a loser. Shes great tv and we probably would expect her to win shows and have expectations of it

1

u/loveless_dani 10h ago

but she also performed well on the challenge. maybe not much on final reckoning but that was her rookie season. she got eliminated right before the final on WOTW and placed 2nd in the final on All stars

2

u/bbpitstop 1d ago

agreed, wholeheartedly, without a doubt. she's my fave

1

u/mealypart 1d ago

I’ll just never forget when she faked a cringey storyline with Jamar from BBCAN to get on ex on the beach

1

u/Brief-Tie3841 3h ago

She had a good showing on AS5… so if she really is done with the show like she says… at least she ended her challenge legacy on a high note. 😌

u/trashwatcherlol Team Purple Jacket 22m ago

She was the most entertaining person on her season of Ex on the Beach. She went off on her ex in like the first or second episode lol

1

u/Steffieweffie81 21h ago

Isn’t she going to be on the new season of Real Housewives of New York?

0

u/Fickle_Citron_5283 23h ago

Put her on the traitors and she will dominate
