I've been watching MTV's 'The Challenge," and 'Teen Mom' since the premiere seasons. And now, I get to watch some of my friends weekly compete and live their regular lives on the MTV Network.
Cory has been part of the MTV Family since his casting on one of the revelation 'Real World' series titled 'Ex-Plosion,' Season 29 in early 2014. This season focused on young twenty-somethings in "its complicated" relationships put in a house, spooked when their exes moved in later on that season.
From there, Cory ventured to "The Challenge" series, eventually meeting Cheyenne from 'Are You the One,' and having their first blessing together, Ryder. Cheyenne was laster cast on the 'Teen Mom' franchise on the 'Teen Mom OG' series - which warranted Cory to be featured as well, being Ryder's father.
Cory's no stranger to MTV viewers, as he's appeared on "Ex on the Beach," as well, where he met his now girlfriend Taylor Selfridge.
I met Cory at Ryder's 2nd birthday in LA in 2019. And with MTV, as Issa Rae says, "I'm rooting for everybody black."
Check out my conversation with Cory about the baby special featuring him and Taylor airing Tuesday June 9th on MTV, which documents the process of delivering a baby and being pregnant during quarantine.
