MTV's "The Real World," which revolutionized the national television and launched reality TV as we know it, is turning 25 and is ready to celebrate in style as seven new roommates take over Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas.

"We are very excited to partner with MTV and their hit reality show series 'The Real World' for the 25th season in Las Vegas. We recently completed our $750 million expansion which includes the addition of SKYBAR, Reliquary Spa and a luxury suite tower. We look forward to hosting the new cast." said Joseph A. Magliarditi president and chief executive officer of Hard Rock Hotel and Casino.

Created for MTV by Jon Murray and Mary-Ellis Bunim, "The Real World" is the longest-running reality series in history. Past seasons have taken place in New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco, London, Miami, Boston, Seattle, Hawaii, New Orleans, Chicago, Las Vegas, Paris, San Diego, Philadelphia, Austin, Key West, Denver, Sydney, Hollywood, Brooklyn, Cancun, D.C. and New Orleans. The first season, set in New York City, debuted in 1992. Each season, the show brings seven young adults to live together in a new city and the cameras roll 24-7, witnessing as their lives intersect, their ideas are challenged and their passions emerge.

In continuation of Real World's true fashion, a high roller's suite at Las Vegas Hard Rock Hotel and Casino will be transformed into the ultimate party loft as the series premieres in early 2011. The new season in Las Vegas comes following a strong season for "The Real World: New Orleans”, which averaged nearly 2 million viewers. "The Real World: New Orleans," which aired Wednesday's at 10pm ET/PT on MTV ranked as Wednesday's #1 cable program in the 10p-11p time period amongst viewers p12-34.

"As 'The Real World' starts production on its 25th season, we are excited to bring the series back to Las Vegas - a city that MTV's viewers love. Hard Rock Hotel & Casino is a fantasy destination and will undoubtedly serve as the eighth roommate and we can't wait to see what Sin City has in store during this monumental season." said creator and Executive Producer Jon Murray.
