I've never been a fan of Tango a.k.a. The Tan Man. I believe Steups and a lot of The Blogspot readers have mad love for The Tan. One of the reasons I don't care for him goes beyond his appearance on 'I Love New York'. There was an incident that happened that someone w/ access to one of his 'REAL' MySpace accounts gave false information. I have a problem with persons who don't take responsibility for their actions or those in their camp. In addition, I have listened to or read most of his interviews. The story changes from interview to interview. The contradictions are countless. The Q. is far from perfect. Besides being old, ugly and bitter... I am unprofessional. I make many mistakes everyday. The one thing I don't do is give the reader an illusion of who I am. I am an average woman with a hot temper, saggy breasts, stretch marks and foul mouth. If you interviewed me in March 2007 and asked if I was in love with Whiteboy. My answer would've been, "No. I have love for Whiteboy. I am in lust with him." Fast forward to today, "I'll always have mad love for Whiteboy. He has crazy swagger and still sexy as all hell."

My point is I understand feelings change. However how does someone stomp up and down in millions of homes claiming he's there for New York. How does one tell a woman he loves her & proposes to her with the cameras rolling, then a few months later on national television he puts on a minstrel show of his own by sitting next to her acting lovely dovey. Minutes later, telling her he loves Tiffany but he got New York. WTF?! Didn't 'The Tan' watch 'Flavor of Love' seasons 1 & 2? Come on, Tango knew d@mn well who and what he was signing up for; NEW YORK. Now to make it worse, again with the cameras rolling Tango talks about sleeping with one eye open to protect himself from the woman he claimed to love. Is that what a 'Stand Up' type of man does? Did Tango keep one eye opened on Heather Hunter too? In closing, this is the sole opinion of The Q. and not a representation of how most of The Blogspot reader's feel. In all fairness, I think it's important to read Tango's own words on his 'I Love New York' experience.

THE STAND written by Tango – distributed on Myspace on Thursday, September 27 – posted as a blog on Saturday, September 29. Tango only posted the comments of those who agreed with him.

I hear that many of you are concerned about the portrayal of African Americans on TV and Film. "The idiocy", "The Modern day MINSTREL show", "A mockery of 400 years of progress". Some say Intelligence in Black programming (More so Reality TV) is nonexistent.

Plain and simple... If you don't stand for something...then surely you will fall for everything. If you don't like what your seeing, Don't Turn off the Television.... Pick up the phone, send out an email... Do whatever you wish, But Don't take what they are giving you.

Bottom line is, Black Men can be Entertaining, Dramatic and Comedic on TV without Acting like Fools or without being portrayed as unintelligent gangsters. On that same note, The Black Female can be "Sexy and attractive without being Disrespected, degraded and portrayed as whores ( Hoes). Look, at no point do I expect this to change the minds of the people that will watch these shows. As a matter of fact this programming appeals to some people and I'm fine with that. What I am not fine with is that there is a "One sided view" presented on these shows. Not to mention the growing trend of the same type of show that is "Obviously" directed at a certain "Class or demographic of people".

The hypocrite: "The nerve of this dude" some will surely say. I had a choice, regardless of the opinions of many I've always made myself clear about why I appeared on the show I was on, I also made it clear that I believe I set a standard on reality TV that has never been done before.

Real, Fake or scripted.... at no point did I compromise My Dignity, My Self respect or My integrity to be on that program. I was far from perfect and had my moments, But I believe I gave reality TV viewers something they've never seen before. More importantly, I believe I gave the "Minority viewer" someone they could both respect and relate to.

I'm sorry, but I felt the only way to change things were from the inside out. It was Hell, but it was a small sacrifice to be made in order to give "Us" a voice... A voice doesn't mind saying Hell No.

They want to see Tan with his own show.... Well Tan won't be anything less than "The exception" , "The Difference" because "My people" Deserve more. At the same time... "My people" Have to want The exception... They have to Want the Difference. The Tango's, The Onix's, The Mo'Nique's & The DR. Ian Smith's are out there, So support them.

They don't pay your Cable bill ....Yet we let them control what we see..? Your Either going to be Gepeto or Pinocchio. Cut the puppeteer's Strings....And get real.

Yeah, another Blog/ Bulletin Rant by Yours Truly....

-Tan...."The stand up Guy".

Food for thought; maybe New York fell in love with Tango but got Patrick Hunter. Good luck and much prosperity to New York, reality love isn't an easy journey. 'I Love New York 2' premieres Monday, October 8th @ 9pm. Don't miss it! It is a funny episode.

A tanned Qmoment!

Of all the winners of these shows, Hoopz seems to have run out of steam. Where is she?
Where are you Hoopz?

I hope hers isn't the blueprint because that would suggest Deelishis, Saaphyri and Tango will soon fade from memory. Until then (hopefuly it never happens) here's Tango hanging with the celebrity crowd.
'Keep name alive, Keep name alive'

Aisha Raison clued me in to this AOL Black Voices interview with Tango (I Love New York)
One of the questions asked of Tango was debated on Elle Word Radio yesterday...

How much of 'I Love New York' is real and how much is
scripted?
Man, that's really hard to say. People use the word
"scripted" as if parts were drawn out. In actuality, the only thing that was scripted was the setting. The only scripted part of the show was the house and the 19 guys going for one girl . To be honest with you, this cast, the guys I was with, that was very, very real. If I had to give a percentage, that show was 85 percent real.

This is going to sound arrogant and I can only speak for myself
but I was probably the realest part of the show. I'm just a normal guy. I'm not an actor. Ninety percent of the guys on the show were actors. They sent a casting tape. I don't have a casting tape

Read and watch the Tango interview in its entirety...

Catch the Elle Word Radio Show today at 7pm EST (Schatar is the expected guest)

We've received word from Tango's publicist (Ms. Linda R Madison of LRM Entertainment) that the winner of 'I Love New York' is making a major media push next week in the coveted New York market.

Tango (real name Patrick Hunter) will be taping the Wendy Williams Show this afternoon (Friday, April 27th).
On Monday, April 30th he will record a segment for Black Entertainment Television's 106 & Park, to be aired on Tuesday, May 1.

I urge everyone of you to listen and watch, and remember, it takes more effort to hate than to love.

In his first interview since the I Love New York Reunion Show, Tango spoke exclusively, to DC Livers, Managing Editor of the Historical Black Press Foundation.
Tango bares it all and in true Tango fashion, casts himself in the best possible light.

The interview is almost 33 minutes so some of you may be put off by that...but if you make the effort to listen you'll hear him say:

1. he has absolutely no love for New York
2. unnamed people (VH1 producers perhaps?) encouraged him to propose
3. the beef with Chance and Real was genuine
4. he will soon launch a clothing line called "Tan-line"
5. he'll have a reality show of his own and Mr. Boston will guest star

And that's just the appetizer. He describes New York as having a split personality and reiterates the reason he dumped her on the Reunion Show.
It rings untrue to me, and especially so when you appreciate this reality Show of his was rumored long before he made an appearance on the I Love New York Reunion Show.

Anyways, to listen to the interview; go to Black Press Radio, click 'Let me Enter' and search the list for a podcast titled "Tango of VH1'S I Love New York Tells All".
I f anyone prefers a direct download, let me know and I'll upload it to Bourgy for you.

First seen at: S2S

After admonishing me for not replying to an earlier email, Loriza was kind enough to send me an interview in Star Magazine with New York. She typed it out word for word; 'wowwwwwwwwww.'
Here it is.

Star Magazine: Why did you choose Tango?
New York: The thing that put him ahead was not only his looks, but that I could
confide in him. We had lots of late-night conversations. He'd tell me about
his past, and I'd tell him about mine. He was original and sincere, and he's
a great friend.

Star Magazine: How does he compare to Chance?
New York: Chance was crazy 24/7, but Tango could compose himself. I had to decide
whether I wanted to live my life being all dramatic, or grow up a little bit
and be with someone who complements me.

Star Magazine: What's it been like being apart from Tango?
New York: It's been trying - you know the saying "out of sight, out of mind?" And I
like to go out and party! But in the five months since the show stopped
filming, we've kept in touch by phone and e-mail. But we're still going
strong. I just wish I could give him a hug!

Star Magazine: What's the first thing you'll do when you're together?
New York: He wants to do something normal, like dinner or the movies. We're looking
forward to going to a fancy restaurant as a couple.

Star Magazine: Would you pick Flavor Flav over Tango?
New York: You are so bad! Do I have to answer this? I don't want to tell you that!

The accompanying photo had a quote that said "I can't believe I kissed that many guys on national TV!"

No need for me to ad my piece because the Tan-man said it all...

So, what's the final verdict on Chance? Is he real or fake?

He is as fake as they come. I've never met any thugs that lived on horse ranches. I was a little thrown by that. I don't know how exactly where the thugging begins on a horse ranch. He was misrepresenting what he was. He used the word "thug," but really he was just throwing tantrums. I mean, he'd get pissed at something and he'd go bonkers. That's totally different from being a thug, you know? There's no place for thugs on reality television, in my opinion, so I mean the final verdict from me is, he should have taken the money. His brother got the wrong name as well. Real's as fake as they come. And Whiteboy is as fake as they come. They were the fakest guys on the show.

One more thing; that suit is sweet.

From Tango's MySpace


They'll Say, But I'll Say, Then I'll ask you...

They'll Say, "I'm not real", But I'll Say "I'm as real as anyone can be on an edited Television program".
They'll Say, "Things about me that are disrespectful and Rude", I'll Say "To know me is to love me...and if you think you know me just by what you see on TV...Then it can't be love".
They'll Say "He's Cocky", I'll say...."There is no place for a humble mind in (this) competition. If Cocky translates into Confidence ..Then Cocky is my middle name."

Now...I'll ask you, After you watch the last episode of that "Certain show", Look back and Think. If you're a female ask yourself "Isn't that the kind of Love, Respect and Passion you want from a man"?
If your a Man Ask yourself "Aren't I supposed to treat a female with that kind of Respect?".

There was the typical reality show "Funny, Pretty-Boy, Ghetto, Thug-like, Crazy and Outrageous Guys"...Then there was ME. I am the difference, I gave you the alternative. I gave you someone to relate to. Even under the most unlikely Conditions on the most unbelievable show.... I still gave you a champion.

I'll then ask you,What's hard? More importantly What's your opinion of what Hard is?
Is Hard knocking out every man that dissed me or who stood in my way on this so called show?....or was Hard enduring Disrespect, verbal assaults and restraining my anger against "Substandard & lackluster" opposition. ( Make no mistake... My only competition on this show is "MYSELF".)
Basically, This is the finally. But...THERE IS "NO ONE" STANDING NEXT TO ME.

Lastly.... I'll ask you.....As you watch not just this last episode but all the episodes...Be Intelligent. There is FACT on this show but there is also FICTION. Be smart and separate what you know to be possible and what is Highly unlikely.

Forget the outcome. Forget who Wins or Loses. Just remember what I stood for, or at least who I was "Portrayed to be".

What the hell was that?
You gave us a Champion?
I'm gonna let this one pass because I can't hate on Chance, Goldie and Tango in a single day.

I know some of you have been throwing up that green stuff (envy vomit) all night speculating and praying for a quick end to the Tango-New York love affair.
Well guess what, it ain't gonna happen...

When you, New York and your mothers went out to lunch, New York was pretty disrespectful to your mother…

(Laughs) To say the least. That was the first time that New York went too far for me. New York was saying things that I'd never say around my mom. But I just sort of sat back to let my mom take it in. My mom needs no defending whatsoever. She's a very strong woman. She knew what was going on. So I kept cool to let my mom see how New York really is, to see what she would possibly have to deal with. But at the same time, I saw a side of New York that I did not like. She knows that and she's apologized for it. She knows that that's something that just isn't going to work. I was appalled and disgusted by the comments New York and her mother made during the show that I only found out about after, when it aired. But she apologized for that, too. People make mistakes, so I'm cool with that. My mother works with families that need assistance and she deals with outrageous people on a regular basis. So what she saw was nothing. Plus, when I was a kid, she always taught me about sticks and stones, so that situation was reversed: if someone says something about you, big deal. Especially if it's not true.

I owe a Gianto watch and diamond engagement ring to: Meale

The recap of The final Episode is coming but until then, use the comments box to discuss

1) Tango beating that punk-ass Chance
2) Chance's exit (which was pretty fly I have to admit)
3) Tango dropping to one knee to propose to Tiffany (not New York, you haters)
4) Whiteboy not winning shit (just because, lmwbhao)

Yesterday we heard of the Reality Remix interview of Real and Chance and now we have the video.
Shawn found it and sent the link to me but I can't confirm what was said because I must have the Al Gore Internet. I can see stills in a herky-jerky manner but the audio is mangled.

I don't think she spilled the beans however, on whether Tango or Chance is the winner of I Love New York. She seems to have asked Real how he felt about New York picking Tango and not him; when it was down to the Final 3.
Click on any of the pictures to see the entire interview. It's about 40% through the clip so you'll have to endure an American Idol recap before you get to the gushy stuff.

So There is Balance

I couldn't resist. You ask, "Whatcha hatin' for." I am not but this was funny. I still love you Meale.

Love or hate him ... he is one of two finalist. Catch the shocking

' I Love New York' Finale Monday (April 2) on VH-1 @ 9:00PM.

The Things I Do For the Readers

This is the hardest post ...I've ever typed. The thought of what is about to be typed by my fingers truly sickens me. Chills are shooting through my body. And to top it off ...vomit is half way up my throat. *shallows

There are individuals who adore Tango. There are individuals who think Steups is the finest thing since Djimon Hounson. These individuals' tastes just mystify me. I've never proclaimed to be the sharpest tool in the Craftsmen. But d@mn ...what the hell am I suppose to be writing? Oh yeah a Tango Tribute. *vomits

Meale a.k.a. Queen of Video Tributes had to spoon feed me the following words:

Tango is a fine specimen of a man. He's intelligent, respectful and caring. And yes, there is plenty of hateration all over the net ...including this very blog. ( Q. looking down @ feet in shame.) Love him or hate him, his name is continually coming out of your mouths and off your fingertips. As long as this continues, you all are just making him famous.

Meale would love to thank you all on Tango's and all of his fans' behalfs. ( Your welcome!) She would also like us to know ...she loves turtles. Her man just became a turtle. Wow that is some serious turtle devotion and dedication. Meale's parting message is, " Cowabonga dudes and dudettes, please enjoy the Tango 'Tan Man' video I put together." ( I am so ready for ' Charm School'! I don't know how much more of this I can take.)

You have just shared a Qmoment! ( in the Twilight Zone)

From The Blogspot Inbox:

Hi, I read the blog regularly.
I was watching a show called Fox Reality Rewind this past Saturday night (and) TV personality, Kennedy, was interviewing Real and Chance (I Love New York) asking them what they thought about Tango winning the show.
They ripped on New York a little, on her mom a lot, and on Tango too (lots of Turtle jokes)

They said the only reason they were on the show is because VH1 saw their MySpace and asked them if they wanted to audition for a show. They went on to say they didn't know what show they were trying out for. When they were told it was I love New York, they still agreed but they were never there to find true love or anything like that.

Kennedy asked Chance his favorite part of the show he said the sex (ha ha ha).
She asked what they thought of New York when they first saw her; (and) one of them said she looked like a muppet. (they were laughing and cuttin' up through the entire interview).
Just passing on some info. You may be able to access the interview online through Fox Reality
Have a nice day.

Inspector Q on the Grind

Today, we had a welcomed visitor in the comments box. He goes by the blogger name 'The Ice Cream Man'. I don't know why but that name makes me want to do 'BIG GIRL' things. *blushes Also the very much missed Hutche made an appearance and managed to ignore me completely. Oh well, I'll always have love for Hutche. Jane reminded me that I am being a lazy cow concerning interviews. *moos And Steups was ...never mind.

As always, I am trying to figure out VH-1's next move. I usually keep things on the low low but heck it's Sunday. Why not ruffle a few feathers? *waves to executive producers, creators and production staff We love you at the 'Flavor of Love' Blogspot. You are keeping us entertained to the 8th degree! *blows them a luscious kiss What I am about to write is not confirmed nor is it fact. It is just my unintelligent mind grabbing at straws ( I should've been blond and rode the little short yellow bus to school.) But hell I faked my way through AP courses. Are you ready for my speculation? Here it is: Quanda believes that a Tango and Mr. Boston show maybe in the works. What type of show? I don't know but could it be an 'odd couple' sort of show? Tango the intelligent, articulate, successful, sexy entrepreneur, African-American male ( Tango fans' thoughts) lives with sheltered, funny, nose & toe picking, blue eyed blond Jewish male. I have some other thoughts on the possibilities but I am going keep them to myself for a while longer.

I was personally hoping for a Chance & Mr. Boston show ...but that would probably be a hot mess. Has anyone ever had turtle soup? ( No boos please ...just typing.)

This is allegely a picture of Tango and Mr. Boston with an attractive production staff member. The question to think about in this comment box is; Are you interested in watching a Tango and Mr. Boston show?

One more thing ( I know you all hate me), is it me or are Tango and Mr. Boston color coordinated?

You have just shared a Qmoment!

Before I begin the recap of Episode 9, are there any Rome (HBO) fans on the website?
The sex scenes on that show make me wanna lick the tv or some shit like that...
Anyways.

The opening shot are of the men in their respective rooms; Tango is alone while the Stallionaire Brothers slept on adjoining beds. The mood is sombre because tonight's elimination is important.
Why? Because everyone knows the Final Two receive a trip; and you know you Americans don't go nowhere
(I threw in that double negative just for good measure)

Real seems down and though he warns, "I will turn into Cain and destroy Abel" he fixates on teaming up to eliminate Tango. But Tango's fixation is on winning and he repeats his leave-a-note trick and once again it works.
The note read:

I pray to God that you continue to play the right hand.
With true love,
Tango.

For some reason that inspires New York to "change clothes" and run over to Tango to sit on his lap. Her outfit is too short everywhere and I can see her boobs and vagina.
(I have HDTV, holla.)
(Hallelujah Holla Back)

Looking into his eyes she says, "ever since you left me in Palm Springs, I cannot get my mind off you. There is something about you that moves my soul"
(didn't she say that same shit to Whiteboy?)
Tango is blushing but becomes very serious when New York asks, "do you love me?"
"I love you", Tango replies.
(Isn't black love beautiful?)
( All love (even fake) is beautiful.)

***Scene ends***

"Good morning caballeros", Chamo says, before handing a note to Real.
The note says the moms are coming and mindful of LA traffic, they are making staggered appearances. Real's and Chance's mother is first and Tango's mom will visit the next day.
The news prompts Tango to exclaim, "that's big for me right now"
(Tango talks funny)

There is no time to waste however and the Stallionaire Brothers race upstairs to get dressed. Their shirts of choice are 'Stallionaire t-shirts' and as if they're reading our minds Chance apologizes...."I am not here like Trends handing out CD's"
(sure you aren't)

Moments later their mom arrives. Her name is Claudia; and as moms go; she's alright. She was probably a beautiful woman two decades ago...but not everyone ages like Rick Springfield and Tina Turner.
Her first impression of New York is perfect...."she is a beautiful lady that the guys are fighting for." And later describes New York as "absolutely gorgeous"
(laying it on a bit thick don't you think)
( No you, DJ Bucky Blends & Mr. New York think she is ...why can't their mom?)
The date with the mom is a visit to Temecula to play with horses, hence the reason Chamo addressed them as "caballeros"
(I know that word because I had a Cuban girlfriend who called me that -wink, wink)

On the ride there, Sister Patterson says, "he's kind of aggressive Chance is."
(she looks like Vader and talks like Yoda, hmmmn)
And Claudia agrees. (Wtf?)

Encouraged by that, Sister Patterson asks, "what would Real provide for New York?"
"He's so compassionate and so spiritual", avers Claudia.
(is it normal for a mom to talk about her son like that?)

And she goes further to say he writes 4-page letters with rose petals
(how do you know that? I have a bad feeling about this)

Finally they arrive at the ranch and New York is understandably nervous given her previous encounter with a horse. But Real assures her it'll be alright and later Chance persuades her to touch the horse with an outstretched hand.

Seizing the moment Chance does a bit of showing-off with the horses, performing tricks that looked suspiciously like standing there doing not a damn thing. But what do I know.
The tricks upset Real who described him as a "son of a bitch"
(come on dude, not with your mother around)

And those very tricks, which still looked like not a damn thing to me, impressed New York who described it as "stroking" and went further to say, "the way Chance stroke those horses made me want to stroke something else."
( Was New York a cat in a past life? She is in heat 24/7 or am I crazy?)

It was time to eat though after the excitement of stroking horses and all that, so they gathered at the table to chow down. New York seem besotted by Chance as much as everyone else was disgusted by his antics.
Real too was embarrassed, and asked New York, "do you want children?"
"Three", she replied
"Do you want a twenty-something stepchild too", Real replied -referring to Chance
(wonders why I used that quote now that I've written it)

New York continues to ignore Real and overplays her obsession with Chance; it's almsot deliberate.
More than almost in fact, for she soon confesses, "I've never had two brothers fight for me before. I find it erotic"
(she really is a bitch isn't she?)
( She's a squandering b@tch!)

Chance and Real continue to go at it and the scene breaks to show Claudia saying, "I think Real is better for her"
(that ain't right. Mothers ought to be neutral, no?)
The fighting gets the better of Chance and he walks off to visit the horses because animals "calm him down".

As he (Chance) walks away, Real advises New York, "if you want Flavor Flav 2 then go on with him"
(She's already had Flavor Flav 2)

Alone together, Real confesses, "I don't want to have to fight for you. I'd rather back the hell out"
(Oh dear, don't these guys ever learn?)
"Then why the fuck did you come here", was New York's obvious reply.

Looking on at the couple (Real and New York) Sister Patterson remarks, "they would have beautiful children". And Claudia seems to agree!

***The VH1 Editors interrupt with their best guess of what their child would look like. It turns out to be a mini-Flavor Flav (too funny, that was)***

The date is winding up and Claudia inexplicably says "I would love New York to be my daughter-in-law. I Love her dearly"
(Wtf? That was quick. This woman is too nice to be true)


Before they leave, America's Next Top Mom has a conference with Real and Chance to let them know that their fighting will "really break my heart"
(come on now, is she acting?)
Claudia cries, and her tears and the melancholy overwhelm Chance who sheds a few himself.
She walks away, leaving the brothers to sort it out on their own. This they do thanks to a Churchillian speech from Real who preached something like "this is life, it's life. We are brothers, it's blood....nobody's gonna tear us apart"
(This from the fucker who says he'll turn Cain on your ass)

The brilliant speeches don't end there. New York says Chance's thug-card hasn't been pulled because of those tears because, "soldiers cry, dogs cry and doves cry (lmao). We cry, we all fucking cry"
(She is just fucking brilliant)
( Those eyelashes that look like Hoover vacuum brushes are brilliant.)

***Date ends***

The next day comes and the anticipation builds for Tango's mother's arrival; but Chamo mucks it up with the most ridiculous ensemble he's worn all season. His choice today was a purple blouse and tights (no lie)
Gay, transsexual or whatever; that shit was inappropriate.

Oddly enough, Tango's mom was nonchalant; which suggests the taping of that scene had many takes.
Preparing to meet his mother New York says Tango is more mature than Real or Chance, possibly because "turtles do live a lot longer than humans"
(lmfao)

Eventually New York meets Tango's mom and her first impression is not a good one..."she's a little on the plus-size."

Their date takes them to tango lessons because, Tango's name is Tango, I guess; and some fool at VH1 thought that was clever.
We learn however, that Tango's mom was a professional dancer and for that reason he was so named -Tango.
This date is as boring as yesterdays but Tango is being a good son, paying lots of attention to his mother.
(Err, Tango; remember what happened the last time you ignored New York?)

I'll answer for you...'she got upset', and she was just as upset today and told us about it, "I am pissed off because Tango is paying so much attention to his mom. He's being a little bitch"
(isn't black love beautiful?)
( I wouldn't call this 'black love'? I miss Whiteboy.)

New York continues, "I prefer Claudia because she looks like she knows how to apply makeup and look like a woman". "I'm a jealous woman, he has to see now that I am his mama"
(this woman is crazy)
( Anyone ever watch 'Play Misty'?)

They move on to have dinner and New York is being obnoxious and reveals to the viewers that she is deliberately ruining dinner because "Tango's mom is boring me. She's acting like a brick-wall....plain....and big"

She and Tango argue over Chance and we have this uncomfortable situation of her defending another man while addressing another with his mom looking on. She admits that Chance has been abusive and rude, causing Sister Patterson to turn to Tango to say "handle Chance or I will"

The date ends and Paula (Tango's mom) says her advice to Patrick (Tango) is "if he's prepared to deal with her...Fine! If not, I want him to run as fast as he can to the border"
(lol...granny got jokes)

***Date ends***

Back at the mansion Sister Patterson asks Chance to join her outside.
At the garden table she tells him he's "a little bit too immature and rambunctious" and asks him to "come closer".
At this point she offers him $5000. He balks and she offers him double ($10000) ..."if she gives you a chain tonight; and you accept my offer, you give her back the chain"

"You serious like this?" is all Chance could say.
Sister Patterson gets up and kisses him...on the lips. On the lips!
Sister Patterson kissed Chance on his fucking lips. I swear I felt a tinge when she did that; that shit was a turn-on. And anyone who says differently is lying. ( That was the coldest Sister Patterson move yet. That is some 'Kiss of Death' sh#t ...right there. LOL.)

Chance was unimpressed and said "the kiss from Sister Patterson taste like Old Lady perfume"
(lmao)

Chance returns to the mansion and informs Real and Tango that Sister Patterson offered him a a bribe.
All that's left is the elimination ceremony (looks at watch).
(Only 40 minutes have gone...this seems way too quick I am thinking)

After deliberation the guys gather at the usual spot and New York appears looking delicious in a burgundy colored dress...
( New York did look great. This will be my last public positive statement about New York.)

(But why do we need twenty minutes for an elimination ceremony?)

Pt2

Tango Hosting a Black Party

' I Love New York' is admittedly bringing VH-1 some lovely Nielsen ratings. Is it due to New York's beauty/charm? Or is it Sister Patterson's call it as she sees them personality? Or is it the opportunity for millions of women to secretly lust for 20 uniquely sizzling men? Maybe it's a combination of all 3 of those interesting aspects of the show we love to watch. I personally had one reason ...W-H-I-T-E-B-O-Y. Now that he has been eliminated, I am checking airline fares to Miami, Fl. Is it okay to shoot stalkers in Florida? Any Floridians out there reading this, let a sister know.

Now back to the purpose of this article: Tango is hosting a 'Black Party'. Now, I am thinking people of all races are welcomed to come. You just have to be wearing a black outfit. Wow, don't be surprised if you see some M.A.C Cosmetics employees showing up. They have tons upon tons of black clothing. On that note: New York should definitely go to this party! She could get some blending eye shadow techniques. ( Stop throwing rotten fruit at me ...I was just typing.) Anyhow, the party has the potential to be lots of fun. So if you are in the area and an adult ...you should grab a ticket. Hell I would ... free apple martinis ...QUIT PLAYIN'. $107, I could use that too. ( Currently listening to Remy Ma's 'Conceited' ...forgive me.) Anything else? Naw, check out the lovely announcement. Is that Olivia? Did her album ever drop? ( Stop it with the fruit ...just typing.) The place to be on Saturday, March 24 is Club Rolex located @ 50 Woods Lake Rd. Greenville, SC. And let's all congratulate Posh Gemz on her position as Tango's personal assistant. You go gurl!

You have just shared a Qmoment!

You know where this scene is from, New York is pissed at Tango and moons him at the top of the stairway balcony. But look to the right; is that a man?
And if it is, who is it?

Ever wondered if your opinion of the contestants of I Love New York is shared or disputed by others?
Well these are some comments I borrowed from a popular celebrity gossip messageboard, on Tango (I Love New York)

Call me crazy all u want but y'all, there is something about this man that is sexy to me.....I know he doesn't have the best, fit body (in fact, if he tones-up he has potential) but am I the only one that thinks he is sexy? - Anonymous

In a suit he's the bomb - OmariszbooMillz

Tango is okay, I got my eyes on Real though - Aangeldelfuego

He's a bitch - CCU2009

He's got too many dents in his face - Pink Heart

I like the way he dresses and not to mention, he gets to me when he has that tilt to the side, mmmm - Anonymous

Girl, I'm so in love with that man!!!!! He is not in bad shape. He is built like a linebacker. He's got swagger, sweetness, and will protect you in a minute. He likes to make money (his ex said he loves his job too much - but he said he has fixed that) Plus he is so thoughtful and a gentlemen and respects a woman.

Last night, I would have slapped the h.e.ll out of New York if she had knocked my hat off MY head like she did him. But he held it all in. A sign of a true man in control!

The funniest thing about Tango is that whenever he gets to arguing with somebody, he gets into this stance like he rappin'!!! Too funny! - ArtsyGirl

Ain't he fine?
Whew, when he had that towel wrapped around him, I was wishing it would fall - Jaima

Tango was always my favorite since day one. That man is all sorts of fine. And I don't mean just physically - Niquey05*

I saw that man in that towel and that bald head (and) I almost creamed!! Like New York said, he is muscular so I don't know where they're getting that he is out of shape. He's got guns for days!
And that sexy smile and the way he blushes!!!! Wooo lawd.

I also like the way he dresses - so off the wall...like he picked his clothes out to impress someone he likes, but it doesn't look quite right, BUT HE TRIED! I LOVED THAT!!!!!!!!!!!!! All he wants to do is make New York happy. He can calm her ass down a little bit - Artsy Girl

We Want Episode 7

*imagining Steups, Electra, Dana, Shawn,Revenge, Ivory, TxShawty,Lareigna, Ponlork, Jane, Hutche, Sanyo, Jorundi, Bhatt, Meale, Cael, Zealous, L Style, Mai Tye, The Original Mr. New York, Sassy, Lady Ty, 3pm, Half n Half, Blacknuts and various anons sitting @ a round table that would make King Arthur proud.

"We want episode 7 ... we want episode 7 ... we want episode 7!"

The power of King Steups' Knuts of the Round Table (blog) is undeniably. The powers that be must listen to the people's voice. Enough already ...we need Episode 7 and we need it at 9pm this Monday or else. And it better be on our favorite station VH-1. ( Does anyone understand how hard it is to type in a rusty suit of armor?)

"Where is my nemesis Steups? ... Oh there you are! Come hither and oil me! SHHHHHH ...do not speak or risk losing your wicked tongue and fingers."

What is thou before my innocent eyes? Does thy sight begin to fail these withered wrinkle eyes? No, it has been sent by the VH-1 Gods ...it is a Vspot, sneak peek @ 'Guess Who's Coming to Dinner?'

The sneak peak begins ...12 Pack is guess what? You guessed it ...pumping iron. Real with his beautiful cornrows is spotting him. (Real is looking very good to me.) Switch to the Manfessional and 12 Pack tells us how he wakes up this morning and there is only five men left. He seems relieved and happy to be one of the 5. Back to the garden gym, 12 Pack says his confidence grows with each passing day. Real agrees. 12 also tells his workout partner that New York told him he was the best looking person in the house. And that as long as he doesn't do anything stupid ...he should be alright.

Next there is a hooded Tango on his bed. Switch to the Manfessional and he shares that he has delivered New York a note with rose on a silver platter. ( This is a very smooth move.) He is in it to win it folks. New York retrieves her love note in a purple satin robe. After reading the note & smelling the rose, the H.B.I.C. appears to be very moved by his gesture.

Downstairs Chamo in working silver leather pants (tight of course), black tight muscle tee and a gray fedora. He tells our magic 5 that everyone needs to gather in the great room. Manfessional moment with Whiteboy who states he has no idea what's about to happen. ( Shut up Steups!) New York strolls down the staircase in a cute white shirt and jeans. New York tells the fellas that she wants to get to know them better and guests are coming. Tango and Real both state they don't know whats going on either. One feels the anxiety in the air. Chamo switches to the front doors and in comes Malay a cutie pie and Chance's ex. Chance says he needs to go to the bathroom. Real laughs. Whiteboy and 12 Pack seem very, very nervous. New York is excited to see the men squirm. Sunny an attractive chocolate sister with a big smile comes through the doors next. She is Tango's ex and he gets a big hug. To the confessional we see New York dissing Tango's ex. New York states that Sunny is a disgrace. ( And you are ...?) Whiteboy is really nervous in the great room. To his relief in walks his sister Melissa. ( Now I know why the sister question during our interview was a rough spot. LOL...I had stumbled onto something.) Real thinks Melissa is hot! New York is none too happy about the ex 'no show'. ( Maybe none of them were interested in appearing on 'I Love New York'.) In walks a model type ( beautiful young woman), her name is Sienna and Real is her ex. The gorgeous children those two would make. There seems to be some mutual attraction remaining between these two. Last Jamie comes through the doors. She is a cute blond and 12 Pack's ex. You feel darkness in the room when she stands next to her ex. New York informs them that she wants to see a hug. Jamie gives him a hug that appears to be a head lock attempt. Poor, poor 12 Pack ...it ain't looking good for him. In the Manfessional 12 Pack tells us he is expecting the worse. ( I am going to like this Jamie I think.)

New York informs the men that the ladies are NOT there to hang out with them. Sister Patterson let's them know that she will be deciding who will be dating her baby girl. And that she shall be digging up all their dirt. (Isn't she the type of mother-in-law men dream of? LMAO) All the women and Chamo ( who waves goodbye vigorously) exit the mansion to take a ride in the Hummer limousine. Jamie announces she believes someone is gay. And we get a glimpse of a Tango/ New York tiff and he gets mooned ( think 'Flavor of Love' season 2 finale).
