Re: The Amazing Race 26 Cast Announced
 

So we get two male couples, but no lesbians? Howard Stern is not happy.

Not sure how this season will be. I would assume that the established couples will dominate.

I thought it was strange that they had two male couples, but has there ever been a lesbian couple on The Amazing Race? I missed a few seasons, but I can't remember one...

I can see a really fit and smart blind date couple making a run, but the established couples should be the favorites.

Edit: I just looked and apparently there have been 2 lesbian couples: Kate and Pat on Season 12 and Carol and Brandy on Season 16

Did those blind date couples chosen from a model agency? Since all of them are preety cute and hot.

They find pretty people everywhere.

I was just talking to a former Survivor about him and his brother getting recruited for The Amazing Race out of a bar in Champaign, Illinois. By the end of the casting process they decided they wanted just him and for Survivor.

Hey, it's that guy from New Kids on the Block, Jonathan Knight. I guess when he came out of the closet he destroyed that door. Good for him!
