Quote
I thought she was asking me if I wanted to be on 'The Real World,' and I knew for a fact that I wouldn't want to be on something that shows the ins and outs of pretty much every part of your life. That's what's cool about 'The Amazing Race.' It does show the real you, but it's not like people are watching you sleep at night."—Kris Klicka, on being asked to compete in The Amazing Race
