I’ve been waiting two weeks for the reunion special. Hold on, let me rephrase that: I’ve been waiting two weeks for the REUNION SPECIAL. You know, the one where New York almost gets hit by a shoe and Bootz runs across the stage barefooted.
I would first like to address Krazy and her “singing career.” I put quotes around singing career because (1) Krazy has a voice for a choir and (2) who ever clapped while she was singing ought to be whipped! Krazy does not have enough talent to get booed off Apollo.
Although I was not a big fan of Krazy, I cannot knock her for trying to get a career out of being on the show. If I am going to let Flavor Flav touch, kiss or share in my breathing space, you bet I want some type of consolation prize.
The biggest loser award goes to Tiffany “New York” Patterson. I am not going to call her stupid because I do not want her to come after me, but I will say she was asinine for thinking Flav still wanted her. Do not get me wrong, I will be the first person tuned in next year for New York’s spin-off show, but I do not think it will be as exciting as “Flavor of Love.”
Anyway, back to the Reunion, after New York walked on stage and Buckwild threw her shoe, combined with the fact that clips were shone of New York making comments about Nibblz, Deelishis’ parents and Bootz, I knew the show was making a downward spiral with it only ending with bodyguards and security stepping in.
Deelishis, in my opinion, was a far better woman than me when she saw the clips of New York talking about her mother’s plastic hair. Granted the hairstyle was funny, I would have made comments about her mother while the camera was off. That way there could be no proof that I said it.
I also could not believe New York sat there and let Flav disrespect her mother. After New York attacked Krazy, her mother and grandmother about not turning down the music so her mother (Michelle) who was still in her clothes could sleep, I just knew New York was not going to stand for any words spoken against her mother.
While cruising the Internet for information on “Flavor of Love” and its contestants, I came upon this: In an abrupt altercation, contestant Larissa “Bootz” Hodges was almost arrested after she punched another contestant Tiffany “New York” Patterson in the face several times, and refused to let go of her hair. A producer told radio “New York was not asked to leave because she was attacked, and we feared for her safety”. After “Bootz” removal from the show, no charges were pressed and the reunion show continued taping.
True, Bootz was asked to leave, but the cameras did not show New York getting punched in the face. The producers at VH1 know the Reunion Special should have been at least two hours long.
What am I going to do with my time now? No more new episodes to wait for. No more Monday mornings walking into the office replaying the night’s events. So I guess now I’ll curl up with my Vanity Fair magazine and wait for “The Boondocks” to return to Adult Swim.
