Flavor Flav is the King of VH1 Reality TV
VH1 was suffering and stumbled into Reality TV broadcasting through their parent company MTV. They produced a show, The Surreal Life, and invited an aging Rap icon, Flavor Flav, and a B-movie Siren, Brigette Nelson to join the cast. Little did know or ever expect that “ROMANTICAL” flames were going to arise between these two unlikely lovers. Flavor Flav’s flirtations with Nielsen was so mesmerizing that they were given their own show, the Surreal Life 2. After Nielsen leaving Flav teary-eyed and alone, Flavor of Love was hatched in the minds of the producers. And, the genesis of the Flavor of Love Reality TV shows were created, but better yet, it was Flavor Flav that saved a boring and floundering network.
If you like Flav or not, he has changed the landscape of Reality TV in the world. He gets love from Europe, South America, the Tropics, China and down under in Australia. Can Flav be a little ridiculous and outrageous, and kills millions of your brain cells by watching the Flavor of Love shows? Yes. But, he is just an entertainer.
Jiggcasey.com gives us a glimpse of Flav’s Reality Show Family Tree:
Flav has given to us New York, Deelishis, Hoopz, Myammee, Black, Bootz, Buckeey, Pumpkin, Seezinz, Nibblz and more and more that I care not to mention. New York has her own following. Hoopz wins every Reality TV show she enters. Deelishis has “massive” appeal with her magazine layouts. So does Black, Bootz and Buckeey. Seezinz is “implanting” her way to commericial recognition on the east coast.
Whether we realize it or not, Flav is good for the entertainment business. VH1 realized it and capitalized on his “star” quality. Unfortunately, will Flav be able to capitalize on it as well. He does have 8 mouths to feed. Right!
Deelishis calls off her Wedding?
Deelishis has ended her wedding plans to “Mr. I’m so Pretty” Orlando. (He could be the next member of the Stallionaires) Something went down with other women and “missing” money, according to Mediatakeout.com. Deelishis hasn’t formally made a statement to the broken engagement.

Reality TV star Tiffany Pollard, better known as New York, is lovin’ the mic! She’s all about acting just now but can’t name the next VP.
The Stallionaires Guilty Pleasures
Is it just me, or am I getting a laugh from Real Chance of Love for the wrong reasons? There are loads of dating shows on VH1, and for some reason, this has stood out. It’s partly because I somehow root for both Real and Chance to finally get the ones they’re looking for—I’m a closet romantic, after all. It’s also partly because I think the girls are just, well, ridiculous to say the least.
What else, however, do you expect from a reality show like this? In last week’s episode, “Who Wants To Be A Stallionaire?”, the brothers begin to test the remaining girls in whether they can keep up with the day-to-day basics of running the family farm. To be specific, the girls were paired up to clean up parts of the barn, and along the way, deal with the animals running free or otherwise. It’s the perfect time for us to discover how these girls are with animals—or learning what they are, for that matter.
