The hookups, the drinking, "the slap" ... good times. In 1992, 'The Real World' introduced us all (for better or worse) to reality TV, and it's still going strong: 'RW: Hollywood' starts Apr. 16, and <a href="http://www.mtv.com/ontv/specials/real_world_awards/voting_main.jhtml"target="_blank">a fan-faves awards show</a> airs March 29. Can the newbies match the drama, debauchery and arrests of these alums? Listen, learn, and hide the peanut butter. -- By Kimberly Potts

Svetlana Shusterman

(Season 17: Key West)

<b>Then:</b> &#34;Fitz,&#34; a Russian-born pre-med student, was a spoiled brat who depended on her parents for everything and whined constantly about her boyfriend, Martin. This didn't endear her to her castmates, particularly catty Tyler Duckworth, who poked fun at her in a burn book, which she eventually found.

Svetlana Shusterman

(Season 17: Key West)

<b>Now:</b> She and Martin broke up, though she's still in med school in Miami. She was runner-up on <a href="http://television.aol.com/show/real-world-road-rules-challenge/193145/main" target="_blank">'The Duel,'</a> but her most memorable MTV appearance post-'RW' was on an episode of <a href="http://television.aol.com/show/my-super-sweet-16/76920/main" target="_blank">'My Super Sweet 16,'</a> in which she celebrated her 21st birthday with five fancy blowouts in one weekend.

Paula Meronek

(Season 17: Key West)

<b>Then:</b> Her hard-partying ways didn't mask the fact that she had some serious body issues and, as she eventually confessed, was still secretly involved with a boyfriend who had once beaten her so badly she'd been hospitalized. Also bulimic, Paula was sent to a therapist by the 'RW' producers.

Paula Meronek

(Season 17: Key West)

<b>Now:</b> With two 'RW/RR Challenges' behind her, she's now competing for the Veterans squad on the 'Gauntlet III,' where she got cozy with Derek McCray before he was kicked off. Her MySpace page proclaims her to be single, which is probably a good thing, since her last relationship led to <a href="http://www.tmz.com/2006/07/11/cast-member-gets-a-taste-of-the-real-world/" target="_blank">her arrest.</a>

Brooke LaBarbera

(Season 18: Denver)

<b>Then:</b> The first 'RW' cast member to be recruited via <a href="http://www.myspace.com/brookelabarber" target="_blank">MySpace,</a> high-strung Southern girl Brooke had spectacular meltdowns over everything from manicures to her roomie/gay-boyfriend Davis Mallory. She also conquered her fear of the outdoors by hiking in her underwear.

Parisa Montazaran

(Season 19: Sydney)

<b>Then:</b> The least trashy, least frequently drunk member of the 'Sydney' cast still found herself clashing with her housemates -- including Dunbar Flinn, the angry Southerner on whom she had a crush, and Trisha Cummings, who was sent home after shoving Parisa to the floor during an argument.
