This excerpt is from “The Reliable Source” in today’s Washington Post:

What’s it like, getting lucky on camera?

A little contrived, according to Kelly Ann Collins, who was seen going home with cast member Josh Colon in a recent episode. (They’re still friends.) She didn’t linger late that particular night, she told us, because of the bizarro production rules: “If you were not out by 3 a.m., you had to spend the entire night.” (Also: Guests had to surrender cellphones and IDs, shed clothing with logos, sign waivers.)

The D.C. event planner/society blogger told us she did stay over on later nights, which we may yet see on air.

“You could hear cameras zooming in and out when you’re trying to sleep,” she said. “And they made it really hot, I think so you’d throw the covers off.”

Any regrets?

“I probably wouldn’t have worn those pink pants” into the stage-lighted house, she laughed. “It’s so bright in there!”
