So first off, what was the final matching ceremony like?
REMY DURAN:Yeah for me, I had no idea who it was.
Brian Bielmann/MTV (2)
I was just letting everybody place me somewhere, I was just like Whatever guys.
Yall figure it out because I have no idea.
And I was like, Oh yeah, yo its us!
Its us for sure.
We would talk all the time, we would hug each other every day like, Hey honeybun.
I got into an argument with every single other housemate except for Amber.
And it was just our cute little moments that no one really got to see.
Lets just do this.
And then Kai and I ended up like I dont even have Kais number saved my phone.
We havent said one word outside of the group chat to each other.
I definitely feel like that ones a bit more of a shocker.
Were the perfect match.
But at the end, when I chose Amber I was sure.
There was no nervousness.
I didnt have the shakes, the jitters.
I was like, Oh we got this, we won.
I was so calm until I saw Ambers little face looking away from me.
I was like, Is she about to pick Justin?
But otherwise, I knew if Amber would pick me, we would win.
MARTINEZ:I felt the same.
I was super confident when I called Remys name up.
MARTINEZ:Or Nour and Jasmine.
DURAN:Or Justin and Kylie.
MARTINEZ:Kylie and Justin are definitely a curveball.
We didnt see Justin and Kylie talk on TV.
It was really like that in real life.
And I guess Justin and Kylie…well maybe yall wouldve found something if yall had a conversation but…
I was like, What are they thinking?!
But I realized that theyre not on crack.
They put me with Amber for a reason.
It makes more sense, I was just frustrated with the whole process.
Im so glad they didnt air my confessionals about that situation.
Has the show been reflective of your experiences in the house?
Obviously, I feel like that that mirrors real life.
Im just a person who lays it all out there.
She was just like, Okay cool, you know?
Because again, shes from New York City.
She meets freaky crazy people like me all the time.
MARTINEZ:Yeah we are.
I knew it was in the moment because I do the same thing.
But I think I think I got a lot out of it.
DURAN:Definitely winning, and really just being up there with Amber was a highlight.
And then my relationship with Paige … thats the highlight really.
Its just a shame our Boom Boom moment didnt make the cut.
MARTINEZ:I love you.
DURAN:I love you too.
MARTINEZ:I would say the same.
Winning for sure was definitely the best feeling.
Thats why I was like, Yeah, its Remy.
Do you guys feel like a perfect match?
Weve lived together ever since we moved out of the house.
She moved into my house and weve been together ever since.
MARTINEZ:Yeah we are definitely lifelong friends forever.
Is the cast all as cool with each other as you two are?MARTINEZ:Theyre really not.
DURAN:Theres definitely some tension between certain people.
MARTINEZ:With Justin and Max.
We have Max and Kari.
MARTINEZ:I think 80 percent.
DURAN:I think Basit and Paige dont really get along.
Ive made some lifelong friends and some other people are just co-workers.
We did a job in Hawaii for 10 weeks, you know what I mean?
Its silly, theres no beef, theres not beef.
Amber and I know what beef is.
We used to scrap, we used to fight.
This is not beef, you know?
Finally, MTV has a way of keeping everyone within the family.
DURAN:Yeah Im open to anything.
I know America needs more Rembrandt Duran, so hit me up.
If the price is right baby, Im there.
