CT Tamburello

Paulie Calafiore is known for calling out other “Challenge” cast members and clapping on social media at fans who have criticized him, and in early May he shadowed his co-stars when he claimed they were CT Tamburello and Johnny Bananas would have allowed Devenanzio to ‘walk away’ with wins in recent years.

Paulie hasn’t been on The Challenge since War of the Worlds 2, when he and the rest of Team USA lost to Team UK, which also included CT, in the finals. The following season “Total Madness” was won by Bananas and Jenny West while CT won the next two seasons, first “Double Agents” with Amber Borzotra, then “Spies, Lies and Allies” with Kaycee Clark.

A fan tweeted about the show and slammed Paulie, writing, “@ChallengeMTV is a much better show if @johnnybananas isn’t eliminated early in the season. If I never see @PaulCalafiore_ at the Challenge again, it will be too soon.” Paulie replied, throwing some shadows at the “Challenge” stars.

“So they prefer the last 3 seasons where the cast bends over backwards to help Johnny & CT get to the finale so they can just get away with it,” he said wrote. “The competitors suck. Period. Keep complaining about how you wish things were the way they used to be. I don’t fit in with the Kumbaya-Bs anyway.” In a later tweet, Paulie wrote, “For the last 3 seasons. Remove CT, Johnny, Wes [Bergmann]Jordan [Wiseley]darell [Taylor]. Name a male challenger better than me. I’ll wait… just say you’re a hater and move on.”

Paulie hit back at criticism from fans of his own performance on the show

Paulie then continued to applaud many fans Twitter, as many people criticized the reality star for his claims. He explained that although he wasn’t back on the show, he received calls for a recast. “If you think I don’t get calls, it’s because I wanted you to think that while I was signing up for the Olympics so I could see how brave people would get online,” he wrote.

In response to a fan who told him that “the final reckoning was the easiest final in Challenge history” and Paulie didn’t even make it to second place, Paulie wrote, “Calm down honey. I know it’s a hard pill to swallow, but as easy as FR was…the last three made it look like WOTW1 & 2. Maybe the finals would be more difficult if there were better competitors.”

Paulie also claimed that he “achieved more” than most cast members over the past three seasons. He also stated that he didn’t “gas” in the “War of the Worlds” finale, but actually suffered heat stroke and blasted “out-of-shape couch potatoes” for the criticism.

Paulie has also clashed with many of his “Challenge” co-stars

Paulie has been at odds with many of his “Challenge” co-stars over the past few years, and some of them trolled him back in February 2022. Commenting on the CBS announcement of Challenge: USA and the global tournament, Paulie wrote that he would be the “first global champion from the USA.” missed three seasons badly…and other countries don’t care about “good personalities” they want to win and bring glory back to the nation.”

Plenty of ‘Challenge’ stars slammed Paulie, and season 37 rookie Hughie Maughan said, “It’s a TV show, not a f***ing world title, for goodness sake.” Theo Campbell wrote, “Isn’t CT technically a Global Champion from USA?”, in reference to CT Tamburello, who defeated Paulie and won “War of the Worlds 2” with Team UK

Trishelle Cannatella commented: “Second hand embarrassing I’ve never seen anyone beg so much to be on a show. It hurts to watch.” Tyler Duckworth agreed, writing, “Apparently challenge = life for Paulie.” Laurel Stucky and Paulie also joined in recently after laughing at Theo posting photos of his time on the show, and he added one of Paulie lying on the floor during the finale.
