Coral Jeanne Smith (born on January 19, 1979 in San Francisco, California, USA) is a contestant from The Real World: Back to New York. She is of african, french and spanish descent. She is nominally a Muslim but is known to smoke and drink. Coral has attended San Francisco State University where she earned a degree in Finance. She has stated that she would like to develop a career as a Television personality .

Coral has competed in six challenges and made it to the end of five challenges in all. Because of this, she's earned a venerable reputation on the reality-competition spin-off shows of the Real World and Road Rules. Although she knows and has the ability to make it to the end of the challenges, she's only won one challenge and that was her very first challenge. She won with former enemy, but long-time friend, Mike Mizanin, as her partner. Coral can currently still be found competing on various Real World/Road Rules Challenges in which she has a reputation for being one of the most formidable competitors because of her cunning and compelling persuasiveness. She is charismatic and has a way with getting people on her side whether it's to stay in the competition or gang up on certain individuals that get on her bad side. On the challenges, she's often considered to be one of the stronger negative female competitors which generally consists of Tina Barta, Veronica Portillo, Rachel Robinson, and sometimes Tonya Cooley.

She has had a love-hate relationship with Mike the Miz and was best friends with Nicole Jackson on the Real World 10 in 2001.

Personal Info

REALITY TV - It was made out that Coral had a romantic relationship with Abram Boise. On an episode of the MTV After Show, Coral makes it clear that they were never a couple but that MTV has a way of creatively editing and changing facts around for good ratings. She even made a statement that the reason she decided to host "Reality TV Secrets" was because she wasn't being jaded or edited by Bunim Murray or MTV. Coral has revealed that she doesn’t participate in any alliances and that the only alliance she ever has going is with cash. She says as opposed to how anything may have looked, she was only friends with Veronica and Rachel. She thinks reality TV is a completely surreal experience and is definitely a lot of fun and financially rewarding. She's made it clear that getting on Reality TV is not a factor of luck, looks, or talent, but knowing what the casting directors want to see and giving it to them.

FRIENDS - Coral is only good friends with Abram Boise and nothing more. She is close friends with Mike Mizanin and Veronica Portillo. She was roomates with Melissa Howard from The Real World "New Orleans." In regards to who she stays in contact with from the Real World, she keeps in touch with Mike (whose currently involved with the WWE), Lori, and Malik who she states she absolutely adores.
