‘The Amazing Race’ 2019 Cast & Contestants Spoilers for Season 31

The Amazing Race 2019 has begun and it is filled with a cast of contestants from reality shows. Past seasons of Survivor, Big Brother, and The Amazing Race are all represented in the cast. Longtime host and executive producer, Phil Keoghan, recently talked to Mens Health about the new season and what these contestants bring to the show. Keoghan stated that, “They definitely have that competitive streak and that mental toughness aspect, because it’s a lot harder than people think to be stuck in a house or be out on an island. On Survivor, my understanding is that there’s a lot of thinking time, a lot of strategy. On Race, it’s a lot more impulsive; you don’t know what’s coming next. You rip an envelope, and you’re suddenly going to a different country.”

Art Velez (49) and John James “JJ” Carrell (49) – Friends who previously competed on season 20 of The Amazing Race.
