Remember Ruthie, the short little drunk girl from The Real World:Hawaii? Well, she’s apparently doing extra work these days trying to make ends meet. She was last spotted on the set of How I Met Your Mother by Alyson Hannigan.

Ruthie was one of our first trainwrecks of reality TV. She was like Snooki without the poof, or the accent. I remember watching her when I was in college thinking–that girl IS A MESS! Then, I interviewed her at The Real World Awards bash, and noticed her height–she was shorter than me (that’s hard to do)–I was in shock because she could put down so much alcohol being under five feet tall! And then my mind kept wondering thinking how the hell does she fit her little hands around a beer can?

I’m feeling a Ruthie comeback! If they ever brought back the Surreal Life, she’s be a perfect candidate.

Here are Alyson’s tweets trying to remember Ruthie’s name:

And, YES–it was Ruthie:

ruthie, that's her name!

About

Although comedy is her profession, Nadine has accomplished a lot in her young age. She is a national champion black belt, a world-class soccer player, and an avid snowboarder. She started playing soccer at the age of 4, and continued playing through college where she majored in Biology, but quickly realized her destiny was to tell jokes, not to wear a lab coat. So she decided to be funny while finishing her Bachelors Degree in biology and continued on to get her M.B.A. Nadine’s comedy style is much like her athleticism, fearless. She’s made her way up the comedy ladder very quickly, and has become a club favorite at many of the country’s top comedy clubs, including the Improv chain. Performing in the Boston Comedy Festival and being noted as the “one of the youngest and brightest up and comers” and traveling to the Middle East to entertain the troops are just a few of her notable accomplishments. These days Nadine splits time between the stage, a radio studio, her computer blogging, and a television studio. Nadine’s TV, Radio, Writing credits include: national commercials, talking head roles on E! Entertainment, Showtime’s Hot Tamales Live, The Skinny: Fat Free News, The Sunny Side of The Truth: Real World Hollywood, TVgasm, Zazreport, Daddy’s Girls, Jerseylicious, celebrity interviews on Mania TV, a weekly half-hour television show that syndicates to colleges across the country for National Lampoon and a nightly radio show on XM Satellite Radio.

    well, with heels…I’m 5’3”. my driver’s license says 5’2”, and my real height…I can’t believe I’m putting this in print–5’1/2” (that last half counts!)

    A pygmy is a member of any group whose males reach less than 4’11″ tall. Compared with that, you could be one of Diana’s cousins from Paradise Island. So, revel in your staturesque-ness!
