If I remember correctly, this chick had these problems during the show, yet kept smoking making matters worse. "Real World's" Frankie Dies at 25 Posted Jun 12th 2007 5:35PM by TMZ Staff Filed under: TV Frankie Abernathy -- the punked-out, boat-phobic rock chick of MTV's "Real World: San Diego" fame -- died at the age of 25 on Saturday at her mother's home in Shorewood, Wisc. Abernathy suffered from cystic fibrosis, though an official cause of death has yet to be determined, according to MTV News. During her stint in the "Real World" house, Frankie exhibited symptoms of cystic fibrosis, such as difficulty breathing and immune-system impairment, and it was a significant part of her storyline on the show. Frankie had some tumultuous times on the show, and ended up leaving the house before the end of the season.
I never watched this show, yet oddly enough I remember an episode where all the people were going to go on a boat ride, and she freaked out just from looking at the boat docked at the pier. It was weird.
i remember that...she was affraid of big boats, not just being on them, but seeing them. She was an odd one.
RIP...I remember her on the show...Felt sorry for her... Robin had big cans...THe asian chick was hot...
i dont remember an asian chick at all...but i have also tried to purge any memory of actually having seen it a few times.
i remember the Asian chick was real mean to her mom when she came to visit and said she can't relate to her because she only knows Korean and she speaks English. Didn't you live in the same house as her you moron.
that was really the last real world i caught enough to know what was going on. rest in peace ms frankie
I remember watching some sort of reunion show one time...apparently the asian chick was going out with guys, but they never showed it during the show.
