Will Gill from the MTV Real World Hollywood season told the Detroit Free Press he didn’t take offense when fellow cast member Kim Alexander stated to him that she was “kind of shocked that somebody so cute and nice can come from there.”

Rather than taking quick offence and getting ruffled by perceived ignorance or throwing the race card out early on, Will had the perspective enough to laugh it off by understanding drinking and nervousness prompted such a blunt statement by Kim.

Will’s stable personality along with his good looks provides a general feeling from the paper that he will be a positive representative of Detroit and break away from the stereotypes of a city often associated with crime and urban deterioration.

William states he grew up near 8 Mile in Detroit, made famous by Eminem’s movie of the same title, and was already in the process of moving to Los Angeles before being cast onto The Real World.
