}}Veronica Portillo (born November 27, 1977) is an American reality television personality and co-creator of the 2000s College Dropout T-shirt line.[1]

Road Rules

Semester at Sea

Portillo grew up in Irvine, California and is of Cuban descent. She was a student at UC Berkeley when she made her first appearance on MTV on Road Rules on its Semester at Sea season, Portillo gained notoriety for her conflicts and friendships with her fellow roadies as they traveled around the world as part of Semester at Sea[2].

Viewers' Revenge

In 2007 Portillo was invited back to participate in Road Rules: Viewers' Revenge. She was the first castmember nominated to the elimination pit, and subsequently, the first to be sent back to the Pit Crew. On the third week, she was nominated back to the pit, where she lost the challenge "Shuttle Puzzle" to Tori Hall, causing her to go back to the Pit Crew. She had another chance on the eleventh week but ended up losing for a third time.[3]

Real World/Road Rules Challenge

Challenge 2000

Portillo was a member of team Road Rules. On this season she memorably landed on the bullseye in a solo skydiving mission that helped her team secure the final mission prize.

Battle of the Seasons

Veronica was once again a member of team Road Rules, alongside castmate Yes Duffy. However their good performance scared the Inner Circle that voted them out first.

Battle of the Sexes

Veronica improved her performance on this season and conquered a spot in the Inner Circle twice. Despite not having the lowest score, she was voted out in episode ten by the Inner Circle led by Emily Bailey.

The Gauntlet

In this Challenge, Portillo was very close with teammates Rachel Robinson and Tina Barta. Her team considered sending her in elimination, but she managed to win the Lifeshield twice, securing a spot in the final and ultimately winning her second season.

The Inferno

Portillo became more of a team leader during this season, winning the LifeSaver four times and being the only girl from the Road Rules team not to face elimination. Tension arose between her and Katie Doyle, since Portillo saw Doyle as the weak link and tried to get rid of her, but in the end they both competed in the final and won.

Battle of the Sexes 2

Portillo was part of the women team. She stepped up once for the role of team captain, but was ultimately voted off in episode 10.

The Inferno II

She was part of The Bad Asses team, alongside her allies Rachel Robinson and Tina Barta, and rivals Beth Stolarczyk and Tonya Cooley. Despite making it to the end and winning her first elimination round, her team lost to their opponents, The Good Guys.

The Ruins

After taking a break from the show, Portillo returned as part of the Champions Team. In the fourth episode after a long verbal battle with teammate Tonya Cooley, Veronica was struck by Cooley, who was struggling with alcoholism and had anger towards Portillo due to Portillo's treatment of Cooley during past seasons including her crafty, cliquish, and antagonistic methods of game play during the show's early seasons.[4] This resulted in Tonya's disqualification from The Ruins. Not experiencing her previous success on the show, Portillo was later eliminated in the sixth episode by KellyAnne Judd from Sydney. Her attempts at forming an alliance with Evan Starkman were rejected.

Champs vs. Pros

Portillo competed on the 2017 miniseries Champs vs. Pros for the charity Planned Parenthood, for which she raised 1.000 $. However she was quickly sent in elimination and lost against Ashley Mitchell from Ex-Plosion.

XXX: Dirty 30

Portillo returned to the main show eight years after her prior season to compete in the thirtieth season of The Challenge, where she became friend with Jemmye Carroll. Despite her long break she won an elimination against fellow veteran Aneesa Ferreira and orchestrated Leroy Garrett's elimination before being voted out in episode 14.

Vendettas

Portillo participated in the next installment of The Challenge, but had to face "mercenary" and former rival Aneesa Ferreira. During their elimination Veronica dislocated her pinky finger and couldn't continue.[5]

Final Reckoning

She was partnered with CT, who called her weak on XXX: Dirty 30. Despite the two veterans' legendary legacy, they couldn't work together and were eliminated in episode 5.[6]

Personal Life

In 2012 Portillo announced her pregnancy on social media, but it ended in a stillbirth.

Adrian Portillo, Veronica's older brother, passed away on February 23, 2016. He was 40 years old.[7]

On XXX: Dirty 30, Aneesa Ferreira (Chicago alumna) revealed that Portillo and Rachel Robinson (Campus Crawl alumna and co-creator of the College Dropout T-shirt line) dated for three years after Ferreira and Robinson broke up. The two first met on Battle of the Sexes.[8]

Modeling

Portillo appeared in the May 2002 issue of Playboy, Real Nude in the Real World.[9]
