Flavor Flav: Oops, there’s goes Thing 1
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
I used to think being a star would be cool. Fame, perhaps some fortune and all the attention that came with it seemed like it could be a never-ending high of fun.
But then reality TV cured me of my desire for my 15 minutes of fame.
Last night’s installment of Flavor of Love reiterated that. No amount of fame or fortune is worth having all my business out there for the world to see.
Flav brought the ex-boyfriends of all the girls for a spill the beans about them in a bizarro version of the Newlywed Game.
We found out a few things: Prototype is the jealous type; Black is a psychopathic stalker (who among us hasn’t date one of those); Thing 1 is nasty, and Tree talks to God. (Of course, that begs the questions: Did God tell her to compete on Flavor of Love? Is a fan?) She’s also crazy, if her ex is to be believed.
And if that wasn’t drama enough, the twins — Thing 1 and Thing 2 — got into it with Seezinz, And where the Things go, Sinceer, the Klingon posing as a human woman, follows. She, too joined in the hijinx and ganged up on Seezinz (who, to be honest, did start some mess).
In the end, Seezinz showed some class and apologized to the Things — they refused to accept, of course. It didn’t matter, Flav got rid of Thing 1 because of her way-too-recent fling with her ex-boo, which was a bit to close to when she and her twin decided to vie for Flav’s heart.
He also told Prototype to hit the exit door. She apparently didn’t like all his drinking and smoking, which don’t seem all that bad considering he used to be a crack addict.
True, these women and many others on reality TV know by now that you pretty much open up your veins to publicly scrutiny and possible ridicule when you go on these shows. Still, it seems despite that, many want their chance to be water cooler and blob topics.
How about you? Would you want to be on a reality TV show? Would you want to star in your own? What would you call it? What wouldn’t you want revealed?

I would love to star in a reality show a real reality show dealing with the struggles of the day to day working person no job living off $20 a week you know the usual the poor and needy dealing with my family and the looser relationships, hunger I would my reality show” learning to cope when all hope is gone” Why not we have had so many reality shows about making your Dream come true, becoming famous, finding love, why not call it learning to Cope when all Hope is seem unenviable “Ophra had several show on giving back to the less fortunate but she over looked my family, I wrote to her several times but her producers never even gave her my mail, how come no one ever contact my family we would be excellent because we are a real family trying to survive, struggling I mean real struggles if I had a been chosen for the Flavor of Love show I would go I would be on the Flavor fave show why not at least I know I would eat that day and I couple of days until he decides to send me home who knows maybe I might have been a winner, in winning takes luck and that is something I don’t seems to have a lot of. I also wrote a book well it is finally typed and shoved under my bed gathering dust it is not publish yet” No money” but I did manager to scuffle up the $45 needed to register it with the library of congress, I would love for someone to read it someone like Tyler Perry My idol that’s my dream and dreaming for me never becomes a reality I would hand him a copy of the manuscript and after reading it I am sure he would find it to be a hit especially with his plays I have seen them all. My book is also great for a movie true life maybe life time or maybe Ophra-Dr Phil maybe she can add me to her book club that would be like looking past me as a needle in a hay stack Oprha struggles is nothing like my past she needs to read my book. A real life reality show based on my book Can You Hear Me Crying” would be the next hit but if you have no money and does not get a chance the Flavor Fave show is the next best thing toi get some fame even if it means showing the public that We can act civil sometimes, I don’t blame Flavor Flave his show is what some Americans can relate to.

Noeleen, have you ever heard of punctuation? A period now and then would be nice. I’m going to assume that what you wrote was a joke.

I think a better title for Noeleen’s book would be “Can you hear me laughing”. That has to be one of the funniest post I have read in a while, and unfortunately I think she is serious.
“My book is also great for a movie true life maybe life time or maybe Ophra-Dr Phil maybe she can add me to her book club that would be like looking past me as a needle in a hay stack Oprha struggles is nothing like my past she needs to read my book.

I, too, hope that Noeleen’s post was a joke. If not, sounds like Noeleen is in need of some serious adult education classes!!

I would’nt want to be in a reality show, but I would definitely want to produce one and I would call it “30 Days”. I would select different people from various walks of life, and monitor their actions from getting out of bed in the morning to going to bed at night. I would want to compare how everybody is dealing with something whether the person is a CEO of their own company, or a housewife with 2 sets of twins, toddlers, boys, & not potty trained, (lol). ” 30 Days”

Noeleen is not the only one who needs to go back to English class. Peralte’s writing is so bad that it’s almost unreadable. “Oops, there’s going Thing 1” — are you kidding me? Even the first sentence of the article has an error so big you can’t help but see it. Gee, Peralte, don’t you proofread your work? Where are the AJC copy editors? Ever heard of spell check?

Well this weeks episode gave me lots to laugh about. Oh the Joys of Thing 1 and Thing 2…. Ex Boyfriends can be haters so I am shocked that Thing 1’s man got on tv and said what he did. I dont believe him and you can see that he looks like a chump.
I could not get a feel for Blacks ex. He was kinda cute in an odd sort of way. But, he seemed to think she was a stalker.
Seezinz idea to not participate was strange. Was it preplanned? How would they have done it if she did participate. And why did Flav not ask her man any questions at the mixer?
Think 2 and the old man with dentures was a TRIP!!!! Now i see why she is fighting for Flav’s Love… She needs the Sr Citizen discount.
Lastly, the exit… Flav crying tears show depth on his part. I still don’t get why he let Thing 1 go. I would have sent Tree home. She is weird. Her ex is weird.
Till Next week!!!!!!

SEEZINZ is Amazing. I meet her in person and I cant believe Flavor didnt pick her. SEEZINZ was a TOP Radio personality in Washington DC before she was on the show. She had made a good name for herself before the show. She smart and goal oriented. She’s a good role model for people of all generations and she’s is SEXY AS HELL. She told me she was working with a TOP Talent Agency that has been getting her alot of work. I looked them up and I found her Agent Mike Styles. I say book her for hosting etc. Heres there info. www.styleelitetalent.com or 301 562-5930. Go SEEZINZ you got my vote. Flav was crazy for not picking you. YOU LIFTED THE BAR WITH BOTH BEAUTY AND BRAINS. 33 D 23 41 and a I Q to match. mannnnnnn FLAV.
