in Cut Off, Louisiana. She is of French and Italian ancestry. She was
raised as a Southern Baptist, and has described herself as a "momma's
girl". Her mother, a devout Christian, took her family to church three
or four times a week. When she was 14, her mother died from a brain
tumor. Cannatella was on several athletic teams throughout her high
school career at South Lafourche High School. After visiting her
sister Buffy at the University of Southern Mississippi, Cannatella
decided on that college, which she began attending at age 17, though
she never finished.Sullen about the impending need to pay back her
student loans as her graduation neared in 2002, Cannatella heard a
radio ad for a show called Lost in the U.S.A., which offered a $50,000
prize, and would be co-produced by Bunim-Murray Productions and air on
The WB. The show was axed during the auditions, and she was invited to
audition for Bunim-Murray's twelfth season of the long-running reality
show The Real World, which was set in Las Vegas and would later air in
2002-2003. She accepted, but perceived the questions she was asked
during the audition process to be part of an attempt by the producers
to cast her as the stereotypical racist and homophobic southern cast
member, and later, in light of the questions they asked about her
religion, as the "holy roller". Cannatella was selected as a cast
member. During her stay, she and her roommates worked in the hotel and
clubs. Cannatella and her fellow castmates felt pressure from the
producers to act out for the cameras in order to make appealing
airtime, saying that she was asked leading questions by the producers
about her plans on certain nights. She also notes that alcohol was
made readily available to the cast, which she pointed out in light of
the fact that alcoholism runs in her family. Trishelle Cannatella Top Movies & Young Movies
