Check out Mel B. putting it down on the "Dancing With The Stars" stage. The girls got moves, and didnt she just have a baby? Damn it has to be so hard for a women these days.
When shock blogger, Perez Hilton, announced on last seasons The View that VH1 had offered him is own show, I will admit that I was extremely surprised. While obscene and highly offensive commentary, graphic images, and explosive statements are great for the Internet, particularly blogs. The idea that a network would put Perez in front of the camera and give the self proclaimed “gangsta of gossip” direct contact with A-Z celebrities seemed very far-fetched. Fast-forward to tonight’s debut of “What Perez Sez” and I’ll be the first to admit that he pulled it off flawlessly.
In tonight’s episode Perez crashed MTV’s 2007 Video Music Awards the only way the gossip gangster could – with balls. His pink hair, high-octane antics, and fearless attitude towards the red carpet made for fantastic television. I mean to ask hip-hop producer Pharell from the Neptunes who had a bigger dick 50 Cent or Kanye West – made for a classic television moment. Perez also scored a rare interview with embattled singer, Amy Winehouse, displaying a much more docile and somber Amy then the tabloids portray.
Many bloggers have the gift of dishing out the jeers from behind their computer screen, but Perez proved that he’s not like most bloggers – he’s the real deal. All in all I have to give Hilton his props for flipping his highly successful blogging career into a flashy, frenzied television profession.
OH GOD MAKE IT STOP, SHAKE A CAN OF PENNY'S AT IT!!
By L.T. Dinwiddie Could the most over hyped reality show moment on MTV been nothing more then a publicity stunt to push choreographer Laurie Ann into the spotlight? That’s what it looks like, as she’s preparing to debut her own spin off show tentatively called “The Laurie Gibson Show”
Her new reality television series will chronicle the famed dancer’s climb to become the next big thing in music. There’s just one problem, isn’t Laurie Anne in her mid 30’s?
By L.T. Dinwiddie Diddy continues to keep the spotlight on him as his new season of Making The Band hit the airwaves last night.
While I have never been able to understand why anyone would affiliate themselves with the ever so lame – Bad Boy Records. In the same breath I love the show because all the high- octane antics make for over all great reality TV.
This year the cast has changed to focus on creating the boy super group. New Edition’s Micheal Bivins, R&B crooner Joe, “super-producer” Brian Cox, A&R rep Slam, Vocalist Ankh Ra, and choreographer Laurie Ann Gibson round out the cast of judges in this season’s uber- salacious installment.
This year Diddy and his team traveled to familiar metropolitans to find the “next big thing”. Orlando, Atlanta, Los Angeles, Chicago, Charlotte, Washington, Detroit and of course NYC - The gays (I’m just kidding) –guys— came out in full force to belt out classic hits in hopes to be apart of Diddy’s next side project.
One of the things that made me interested in this season was the fact that Diddy, and MTV thinks that they can put these extra pretty, extra in shape, highly emotional MEN on television — for the entire world to scrutinize. And think that they are actually going to have a chance at being successful recording artists.
I think the one thing (although I could be wrong) that made Boyz II Men, 112, The Jackson 5, and countless other male singing groups successful - was due to the fact that we never were privy to the inner workings of their creation. I’m sure if we had, then a lot of legends who have gone down in history for being successful male singing groups wouldn’t have been so legendary.
But I wont let any of that get in the way of tuning in every week to watch all the drama.
While I think Diddy is as corny as any as a husk of corn itself. The man certainly creates great water cooler moments.
I tell you what, I love a good knock down street fight and that’s what almost went down on VH1’s Surreal Life, I mean Celebrity Fit Club during taping.
We all know that Harvey E. Walden IV is a no nonsense ex marine. And in watching this clip where he almost served Screetch from Saved By The Bell a serious ass whooping, it looks like I will be tuning in a lot more in the future.
I warn you now that the cussing is unedited so ir you’re at work I would adjust the volume before hitting play. My mouth fell open watching this entire footage. This is reality TV.
By L.T. Dinwiddie Finally there’s something worth talking about…
Ok so my girl Melinda is out. Last night she was voted off the hugely popular reality show American Idol. I loved the short-necked powerhouse but lets be real –the girl didn’t have a chance in hell of winning when there were other younger and normal necked contestants. I keed, I keed.
As we’ve all seen from the previous shows before her, Melinda is already on a fast tracks course to stardom. So please don’t cry for her Argentina.
Fresh fromCrunk & Disorderly is a woman after my own heart. We both love junk television and this youtube.com clip that she posted on her site is the best/worst about reality TV today.
In this video clip, an old school G is caught cheating and its all caught on take by that train wreck of a show “Cheaters”. His response was interesting to say the least. Check it out!
By L.T. Dinwiddie Light up the grill and let’s get ready to cop a squat in front of the television because it looks like I Love New York 2 is going to be much better then the first.
It seems that VH1 has such high hopes for the new season that they have created a websitededicated to keep all of us fans abreast of every single contestant.
I’m not in the business of “outing” people but I know some of the strapping men who have submitted their picture(s) and videos are as How You Doin as Eddie Murphy and Johnny Gill (yes I’m still on them).
I’ve got to tell you that though last season was kinda OK to me, this season might actually be worth tuning into from the beginning. Will New York –AKA-Tiffany get played on national television again? Will there be more Gay contestants than happy hour at Bulldawgs? Or will she actually find love this time around? You know what they say- third times a charm.
In related news...
Is there a scandal brewing on hit reality show? According tomediatakeout.com Tiffany and Sister Patterson are in fact not mother and daughter.
By L.T. Dinwiddie Tiffany-AKA-New York played herself on National television as she surrounded herself with practically every homosexual known to man on her semi-hit Reality Show I Love New York. Though she managed to pick a non-honosexual to spend the rest of her life with, he apparently didnt pick her, and dropped her faster then a teenage girls panties on prom night.
And if we all thought that wasn’t bad enough, I just got an email confirming that it’s coming back for a second season. However this year they have specific guidelines. One in particular I just love:
I LOVE NEW YORK SEASON 2 Now Casting Company: VH 1 Contact: State: CA CASTING 2ND SEASON OF I LOVE NEW YORK HEY MY FELLOW SEXY SINGLE MEN. YES IT’S OFFICIAL I’M CASTING SEASON 2 OF “I LOVE NEW YORK”. I’M CASTING ALL TYPES AND ETHNIC BACKGROUNDS. MY BREAKDOWN IS THIS AND PLEASE DO NOT SUBMIT UNLESS YOU FIT THE BREAKDOWN AND FOLLOW SUBMISSION GUIDELINES. STRAIGHT MEN AGES-21 TO 36 ALL RACES & EXTREME PERSONALITIES
I cant wait for the all coonery to begin..But this time I really do hope that LaLa gets her look together for the reunion show!
By L.T. Dinwiddie Ok, so it looks like I was wrong with my VH1 I love New York exclusive. It happens sometimes, right? But here is something that I found very interesting on winnerTango’s myspace page.Out of all his top friends, Tiffany AKA New York is nowhere to be seen.
Could this be an indication that not all is well in the reality television romance? I mean let’s be honest; New York wouldn’t have a chance in hell of landing female fan favorite Tango even on her best day outside of the show. So for the teenage mutant ninja turtle look a like to have a music myspace page and several Tango shrine myspace pages, the whole thing is looking as holy as the condom Tameka used to trap Usher’s dumb ass. And lets not forget the ptifull engagement ring that Tango gave to her that was obviously supplied by the producers of the show. Even I could afford a bigger ring then that and I live on peanuts, well not really but you get the idea.
Oh well I digress, we will find out the real deal on the reunion show, which premieres on April 15th. But I’m willing to bet that the budding relationship was over the minute the producers said “and that’s a wrap".
