Vh1access Interview With Candice ( The Ultimate Catch)




Vh1iNFO: Hey Candice How Are you today?
Hello! Doing well thanks!
Vh1iNFO: Your From Chad Ocho Cinco The Ultimate Catch for those who dont know how did you get casted?
I saw that they were taking submissions online one day and decided to give it a try. Honestly, didn't think it would go much further then that. Clearly, I was wrong.
Vh1iNFO: We saw there was 85 women on the 1st episode what was The casting process?
The casting process was brutal. We were locked in a hotel room for four days doing interviews and photo shoots before we were actually chosen to go into the house. No phone, no computer, no room key even. The chaos started before we even met Chad.
Vh1iNFO: Out of the 85 women there was 3 former Vh1 Cast Cali, Rabbit, Cashmere did you recognize them?
I recognized Cali right away. They were definetly making their presence known in the locker room.
Vh1iNFO:How Did it Feel to be picked in that Big Group
It felt good. Also very surreal. When I originally submitted myself it wasn't something I completely took seriously. As I was running towards the bench to put my name on the roster, I just kept thinking 'Is this real? Am I actually about to do this right now?'
Vh1iNFO: What Was Your mind thinking, did you have a chance?
There were a lot of pretty girls on the field that day. I didn't know what Chad's type was so I was unsure of what he was looking for. I thought I had just as good of a chance as anyone else on the field.
Vh1iNFO: So You Got picked how Was the filming experience?
To be picked out of that many women definitely boosted my confidence level. The filming experience was...interesting. It wasn't at all what I expected. Time with Chad is extremely limited. You spend most of your days with a bunch of caddy women who have nothing to do. That's where the drama comes in. Chad's "house" was more of a prison in my opinion.
Vh1INFO: So T.O What Happened before & after Filming?
I'm unsure how the rest of the female population thinks. But I never wanted to "smash" T.O. I am a football fan. Not a groupie. A fan. I watched T.O. suit up in his Cowboys uniform and play against the Eagles for the first time after he got traded. Of course I was excited to meet him.
VH1iNFO: How Did You get along with the rest of the cast?
The girls I got along with best during filming were Emma, Crystal, Lisa (who of course got eliminated before my time; which didn't help my sanity level) Tiphany and Jazzy. Crystal, Emma,Tiphany and I have all hung out since filming's been over. If I took one thing from this situation it has been some good friends.
Vh1iNFO: Chad, how was he as a person?
Again, time with Chad was limited. I'll be the first to say (or maybe not) that everyone was sketchy on his original intentions for the show. I didn't know if the person I was getting to know was the REAL Chad or someone who was putting on an act for the show. I still don't have the answer to that question.
VH1iNFO: Did You Enjoy his Challenges, Elminations, Mansion?
The challenges were cool because it gave us a chance to leave the mansion. Eliminations were interesting (as long as you weren't involved) but almost always ended up stirring up more drama.
VH1iNFO: We Start to See the football You carry around, girls said you were Building a Ocho Cinco Shrine Explain What Really went down?
I AM A FOOTBALL FAN. I carried around the football because I had nothing better to do with my time. I was ecstatic when we pulled up to the Rosebowl. I got to go in the locker room and chill on the same field of games I've been watching my whole life. I'm all about experiences and living the life God gave you to the fullest. I did take a football from the Rosebowl (not because I'm obsessed with Chad...Child please) but because I was uncertain where this experience was going to take me and I wanted something to remember it by.
Vh1iNFO: So Chad Picks Rubi Instead of you what were you thinking?
Come on...do you think I was THAT shocked? Honestly, The date in San Fransisco through me off a bit. That day I felt as if Chad was giving me way more attention then Rubi. But after removing myself from the situation it's clear that it was intentional. Chad knew he was picking Rubi all along. 'They' knew if Chad gave me extra special attention that I was going to go back to the house confident. And it worked. That's also why I question the character of the man I was "getting to know."
VH1iNFO: After You left He said you questioned his personality, Plus he told viewers Sarcastically who did we think he was going to pick, Anything on that?
I think Chad's ego needs a reality check. Like I said previously, he had been giving me extra special leading up to my elimination knowing that Rubi was the one he was going to keep all along. Am I wrong for questioning the character of someone who was being questionably fake to me? I think not. The interviews are done AFTER the fact. Chad clearly couldn't handle my exit. NOT sorry about it.
VH1iNFO: What Has been going on since the show, gained fame, Coming back to Reality Tv?
During filming I was living in LA. I have now moved back to Chicago to be closer to my friends and family. Everyone in my life has been extremely supportive of the experience. A little bit of fame has come my way. Its weird getting recognized (usually as the 'homie smasher) It's whatever. You only live once and it was definitely interesting chapter in the book of my life.
Depending on what show. I'd totally do another one. I'd come better prepared, I now know how to play the game.
Vh1iNFO: Thank you for your time Good Luck To You Any last words?
Its not real. Its reality.
Thank you!
