I did the messaging thing with someone very close to Tiffany "New York" Pollard, last evening. Very very close.
I never asked if I could mention it here on the blog so we'll not reveal the source until I obtain clearance.
What I can divulge, however, is that "New York" is quite familiar with the site. So I am warning you; anyone who says anything negative about her will wake up next to a horse's head.

If things work out, and I don't suffer from stage fright; we just might have a chat with her. But that's in the future. At present she's doing as much promotional work as she can because she really wants this Show (I love New York) to be a success.
"Flavor of Love", as we all know, was a cable television phenomenon; and though that gives her show a massive lead-in it also adds to the pressure.

I understand she's at VH-1 this weekend, filming a commercial/promo for "I Love New York".
You may have seen a few of the pictures from her recent photo-shoot but expect to see many more in any magazine that's worth buying. My source says those pictures "will be split up among Tv Guide, Out, People, Star, King & a few more."
She apparently has an interview -that I missed- in the 'New York Post'. But don't go looking for it, we'll have it on the site soon enough.

Our Goddess is doing it big; and if you thought I was kissing her ass before then you better walk with more lipstick, because I was told, that this site is where she first saw the "footage you guys have of the tryouts and the trailer for the show..."

Anyways, I better end it here, but before I do, here are two pictures from her My Space salute.
Go add her to your friends list and if you don't have an account; get one. It's a travesty that the official New York My Space has 400 friends. Even I have more than that.

When you're there, you'll see Bucky's (New York's manager) explanation for the name change to "Cattybit".

I gave a preview of this guy one post backwards but now it's time to really get to know "Trends", a contestant on 'I Love New York'.
Something about this dude I like, and you know it took a lot of effort to say that. From what I've seen and heard, he is a rap-artist, a model for Polo jeans and a My Space Pimp.

I added the latter because you'd have to see to believe the number of beautiful women that have sent me messages praising this guy. Perhaps he rounded up every woman he knows to message me but it's still impressive.

I have listened to two of his tracks and he is not short on talent, so hopefully he capitalizes on the exposure. You can download, for free, his MixTape Vol1 and you can visit Trend's My Space for information on Vol2. Some of his stuff is on sale so don't be shy; artists have to eat too.

According to his Bio, "Trends" hosts a cable access Hip Hop show called 'Show Off' and has appeared in numerous magazines (Blender, Rolling Stone, Vibe, Source, People and Paper) and has been seen on many a Television Network so it's hardly likely he'll be starving for Christmas.

Anyways, it's picture time.

I think if it's one thing reality television proved is if you place strong personalities in an enclosed environment there will be drama. So it's not surprising that we had a little fallout in the comments box this afternoon, because that thing is like 6 inches x 3 inches.
It usually takes a mansion for it to jump off on 'Real World' and 'Flavor of Love'.

Still no word on Texas-Shawty and Groovy. Groovy was last seen smoking a cigarette at 3: 50pm and Texas was reportedly seen on the AOL Blackvoices messageboard in the Cartoon thread.
We should start our own cartoon thread. Here is a sample comment:

Donald Duck is a pervert. How da hell you just gon' walk around with no pants on and nobody don't say shyt. Duck ding-a-ling just swingin' to and fro and blowing in the breeze.

Smurfette might be a tramp. Okay, why is she the only chick who hangs with all those smurf dudes? She got to be the jump off.

Goofy has to be on drugs. I mean I don't see any other way. He seem like he smell like weed. That's all I'm saying.

Raphael was a self-hating turtle. All the other turtles were cool with their fate but he always had an attitude. But, he changed it up when April the reporter was around, who just happened to be a white chick. Yeah we know how ya'll self-hating turtles roll.

Captain Planet is lazy. Not only do you have to call his azz five times (Earth, Wind, Water, Fire, Heart) but you have to call him all at once or else his azz don't want to come to work.

Skeletor was a repressed homosexual. He was just too obsessed and fascinated with He-Man. But he wasn't ever gonna get that because He-man likes his men with some meat on them.

Wiley Coyote is a masochist. Why da hell is he still chasin' the roadrunner? How many anvils have to be dropped on his head before he gets it?

Well I've gone on much too long so I'll leave you with a picture of "I Love New York" contestant Hashim "Trends" Smith. More from me, on him, in about thirty minutes.

I think it was Revenge who wondered aloud about the relationship between Flavor Flav and Deelishis. Seems they were at the Big in '06 Awards Show but were neither pictured together nor seen together.
Perhaps Flavor was too busy with his co-presenter responsibilities. He did a good job by the way; if you didn't mind hearing "Yo, check this out" a hundred times.

No such concerns between "New York" and "Deelishis", they appeared on stage and vogued for the cameras. Which just proves that reality stars don't hold grudges.
Makes you wonder why they can't forgive Beth from MTV's 'Real World', 'The Gauntlet' etc..

Anyways here's video of "New York" and "Deelishis" at the awards show, but you have to wait until the very end to see the Queens of Flavor of Love.

K, you know I'm just playing right?

I'll be back in an hour or so with news of another 'I Love New York' contestant. This guy is a musician and a model for Polo jeans.
He's from Brooklyn by the way; which makes me wonder if "New York" didn't set-up a stall on Fulton or something. Why are all the guys from Brooklyn?

Sorry I wasn't around much of the day, the afternoon and the evening.

As you may have noticed the comments box is now restricted to registered members only and that basically means you need to have a Blogger account to comment. It's not my preferred choice but it's the way it has to be to add a stumbling block to some rather aggressive spammers.

I have news of another contestant on I Love New York but I can't do that now. Why slave to write something on one contestant when I can provide a picture of the entire cast of I love New York.



I see they have replace Big Rick with a big ......

You know, not being arrogant or anything, but why the hell don't I receive promotional stuff? Dang.
