As evidenced lately there are strict nondisclosure rules from MTV for the cast members of Road Rules as well the Real World regarding what they can say publicly before or during their respective show is being aired.
Recently a new Road Rules site dedicated to the upcoming Viewers Revenge posted an interview with David Leech of the new Pit Crew. MTV reminded the cast of the nondisclosure rules they signed and the cast themselves notified the site that they can not speak any further as seen on this Road Rules Revenge Post.
What is entailed within the contract the Road Rules and Real World cast sign is touched upon in this Times Union of Albany New York article where Rachel Moyal of the Real World Austin cast is quoted as saying, “I had to sign this contract saying 50 different ways they could sue me.”
Basically for the cast to do interviews they must first be OK-ed and filtered by MTV first unless the season of the show the cast member was on has completed airing. The cast members that violate this could find their footage cut from the show and lose consideration for future Challenges or in the more extreme case lose earnings won on the Challenges and face litigation.
