Full Robin Hibbard Biography
The Real World: San Diego was the fourteenth 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. The San Diego edition premiered in 2004, with the cast living in a blue, three-story former restaurant called The Blue Crab Restaurant in a commercial area of San Diego's Point Loma neighborhood. The property has been renovated into office space, and is now occupied by a company called TENELEVEN Interactive. It was the second season of the The Real World to be filmed in southern California after The Real World: Los Angeles in 1993, and the third season to be filmed in California after The Real World: San Francisco in 1994.
Every season of The Real World, beginning with its third season, has included the assignment of a season-long group job or task to the housemates. The San Diego cast worked on a boat in San Diego Bay named "Stars and Stripes" which carried visitors daily. The cast members worked as tour guides and helped to maintain the boat in their spare time. This created a problem for Frankie, who has a phobia of boats and is initially frightened by the sight of the harbor. None of them particularly like the job, and at one point Cameran and Robin fake falling in the harbor to get out of work. The castmates were trained in public speaking by American University's Department of Communications.
A 22-year-old woman claimed she was raped in the Real World house sometime the night of November 14, 2003, by an acquaintance of Real World cast member Randy Barry, identified in local reports as "Justin", who was staying at the house as a guest. The woman claimed the man bought her a drink at a downtown San Diego nightspot, which she blacked out after drinking. According to cast member Jamie Chung, a member of production staff said that the young woman was found lying naked on the bathroom floor of the Real World house as Justin emerged, saying, "I just hit that." That person had then dressed the woman and moved her to the living room couch, where Chung, upon arriving home on the morning of November 15, found her. Chung then helped that other person move the woman to the downstairs guest bedroom. Chung and the camera crew woke the woman at 10:30am, while cameras were rolling. Chung told the woman that she may have been sexually assaulted in the bathroom during the night, but the woman, according to Chung, appeared disoriented and had difficulty speaking. With the woman's help, Chung contacted a male friend of hers and arranged for her transportation home. Feeling pain in her genital region, the woman reported the incident to police on November 16, and a subsequent medical examination revealed abrasions to both her vagina and anus. According to police, the woman believes her assailant drugged her, brought her back to the Real World house and then while she was unconscious, raped her in the bathroom, since that is the only place in the house where the show's cameras are off-limits.
Another cast member told police that he had seen the woman barely able to stand up in the bathroom, mumbling incoherently and looking confused, according to the search warrant.
At the end of the tour, however, Lee received a phone call from Pam Naughton, an attorney representing Bunim-Murray Productions, which produces the show. Naughton refused to permit the police to search the bedrooms and stated that the producers would not turn over any documents or film until she personally reviewed them. The police then obtained a search warrant, and raided the house, confiscating the film-editing computer, the cast's e-mail computer, bedding, towels, videotapes and other possible items of evidence. After examining hours of footage taped for the show, and seizing evidence at the scene, police made no arrests, and the San Diego County District Attorney's office concluded there was not enough evidence to warrant any charges.
Nearly a month of footage from the season ended up on the cutting room floor due to the allegation. While Charlie Dordevich only appears in 3 episodes, he lived in the house almost as long as Frankie, who appeared in the first 23 episodes.

The show's soundtrack featured music from a number of notable San-Diego area/West Coast bands, mostly of the punk rock and pop punk styles. These included blink-182, Unwritten Law, Agent 51, Slightly Stoopid, and Modest Mouse. |
