"Rock of Love" Finale tonight

The "Rock of Love 2" finale is airing at this very moment and will rerun tonight and tomorrow, for those of you who have been following it. Tonight it is down to the glam-skank Daisey and wholesome almost-40 Ambre. I am rooting for Ambre, by the way. Daisey still lives with an ex-boyfriend and has enough skeletons in her closet for a Grateful Dead music video. The "final cut" will be made on location in Cancun, Mexico.

Rock of Love 2 Episode Two"Peep Show"

This week picks up after last weeks elimination and while the "VIP" girls head upstairs to bed early,for "beauty sleep" as one puts it,while the rest of the girls join Bret downstairs and he sings for the crowd.Bret is disappointed because he envisioned kicking back and having an "old school" dance-off.He urges the group with him to rag on the VIP girls the next morning,about how they missed one helluva party and then to add insult to injury,Big John wakes the VIP girls in the morning and advises them that when ANYTHING is going on in the house,they need to at least show up!Courtney,the girl who passed out on her first night at the house and missed the elimination ceremony,also learns of her fate this week-shes OUT.This weeks competition was a carnival style "peep show" where each girl had to display whatever talent they had and the Eastern Bloc Angelique chic licked sugar free chocolate off her own boobs(!) but she did not get the coveted prize group date-Ambre,Daisy and Peyton(who played some awesome guitar and didn't reduce herself to disrobing)won the date with Bret,where the four of them went out riding ATV's and had a picnic lunch.When they return from the outing,the VIP girls are sitting in front of the front door in various stages of dress,in a pitiful attempt to make up for being AWOL the previous night and then Angelique and Inna,who spent the day creating a makeshift dance floor, follow suit,greeting Bret at the threshold!That evening,the dance-off is on and the girls have to draw dances such as "the worm" and "the running man"from a hat!Inna and Angelique pick the winner of the dance off ,who gets a free pass to get one on one time with Bret whenever they want.And now Sara admits she only auditioned for the show as a dare,just to see if she would make it on,and she is called out on it at elimination-at which time Bret confronts her and she lies,denying she told the other girls she did it on a dare.He tells her to walk and then gives passes to the Ukrainian Inna,rocker chic Peyton,,Destiney,Ambre,Megan,Daisy,Roxy,Jessica,Kristi Joe(who toys with him and hesitates to accept) Catherine,Aubrey and Angelique.Korie and Niki get no pass and thus are eliminated.In a preview of next weeks show,we see the infamous Lacy Connor from "ROL 1"butting heads with everyone,and hosting a roller derby inspired challenge.

I do not have a strong favorite yet-none of the girls have really stood out.Angelique is fun but scares the hell outta me and while Catherine is sweet and I love her "Elvira" 'do and she is probably the closest to Brets age but those young vicious girls are going to eat her alive if she doesn't show some type of attitude!Thats all for this week!

Rock of Love 2 last night

Twenty more girls came to the Rock of Love house and 16 of them were immediately selected to enter the house and there was a brief "WTF?" moment when it was clear that the 4 remaining girls who were to be cut were probably the cutest!Bret then announced they were his "VIP's" and would have seperate accomodations from the other 16 as well as "first crack" at hanging out with him later.The bar was officially opened and as par for the course,most of the girls started slamming booze.One girl walked up to him,and wiped his mouth before kissing him,telling him she was a "germophobe"OK-and you came into the house knowing he would be tongue wrestling with 19 other girls????Some of the "girls" looked like upper 30's barflies but the majority of them were decent,and of course,a handful of them claim to be musicians too.Another commented that if she couldn't get close to Bret,she would just grab a hot chick and make out with her!Warning bells!What did Season One teach us about party girls?Erin,who Bret perceived as hot and very "rock n roll" ended up boring him to yawns because she yammered on and on about where she had been,playing guitar,etc.....These chicks are pulling out all stops too-tops came off and there was pole dancing,and one girl is absent from Elimination because she is passed out stone drunk on a sofa inside the house.Bret says to let her know shes cut when she wakes up,Then there is some huge rawboned Eastern bloc country broad who I aint too sure was not a man at some previous time,complete with the "Natasha"accent.Reminds me of those Czech chicks in "Hostel",her name was Angelique.At elimination,Jackye stepped up and announced she wanted to leave and that saved one of the girls being cut that night.Catherine and Aubrey both look to be at least 40 and both could stand to gain some weight but he picked them to stay.Among the first to be given a pass was Megan,a cutesy little bubbly blond who is a model-you could almost see a lightbulb over her head when she talked lol.
Season previews have Rodeo,Heather and Lacy visiting and more tough competition challenges like roller derby,muddy football,horseback riding,auto racing,dirtbiking-you name it! And of course lots of tears,catfights and drunk girls taking off their clothes!!Kinda "Girls gone Wild" for TV,but its all in good fun and to me never gets old-unless they do a Rock of Love 3-which would be redundant considering that fossil Flavor Flav is getting a THIRD season!Ratings don't lie though,reality/celebrity series on VH1 are very popular even if some don't admit to watching such "trash"LOL.

Rock of Love 2 premieres tonight on VH1

Tonight at 9:00 EST,Rock of Love 2 premieres and Bret Michaels will be selecting a group of women who want to stay in his house and "rock his world"!In the end,on the original Rock of Love,Bret chose Jes but....they just kind of fizzled.I was honestly rooting for Heather in the end,just because they had alot in common-but there were issues.In an attempt to avoid any heartache,I have a few tips for Bret when when he needs to eliminate one of the girls if he wants to avoid repeating history and pick the right one...

These women are not keepers:

1. No exotic dancers,aspiring actresses or musicians who want a resume filler.I liked Heather but she was an exception.
2. No bored "Trustfund Daddys Girls"
3. Nobody who admits they have fake boobs
4. No girls half Brets age
5. Last,but not least,any b*tch who doesn't know ONE single line of one Poison song!

Keepers:

1. Groupies-I am dead serious-they were given a bad rap by all the other girls in ROL 1 who ostracized Brandi M. for being one-Without groupies there would be no great bands!
2. Any girl with cool parents like Heather's Dad,who will get drunk with you and tell fart jokes !
3. Anyone who can keep up with Evick drinking....
4. Women who EAT like Heather-no wussy salad and water for her!
5. Girls who kiss other girl-it looks like Bret likes that....lol

I seriously cannot wait to see who shows up!Big John will stay in the house again with Bret and the women and hopefully Brets solo band members return for another episode.Let the "good time" begin!

Retro Rewind

Every weekend there are decent music-themed movies on VH1 Classic,anything from "Purple Rain" to "Almost Famous"and today they are showing "Urban Cowboy",one of the FEW movies my hubby and I agree on besides "Roadhouse"!I am NOT a Travolta fan,I refer to him as John "Revolta" -I mean he was great as a "Sweathog" and phenonemal in "Grease" & "Saturday Night Fever"I just don't dig him in serious roles,I like his early stuff.I don' t even care for alot of country music either,but "Urban Cowboy" is basically a chick flick set in an action movie-classic love story meets honkytonk heaven.It sure did alot to make mechanical bulls popular.....and put Gilleys on the map!AS with any bonafide chick flick,the leading man,Travoltas "Bud"-the good guy-is so stubborn you just want to smack him!He would rather be miserable than admit to his estranged wife he still loves her!If you can get over the music,Travolta has some impressive dance moves here.And the ending is great-he beats up the bad guy,saves the fair damsel and tells her" lets go home"!See?Chick flick in an action movie!
VH1 Classic is available on most satellite/digital cable and is a worthwhile addition for people who like to see classic VH1 material,mostly stuff from the 70's and up!

Vh1 Reality Rehab Revisited

I have to admit I watched the premiere episode of "Celebrity Rehab with Dr.Drew" and while it did not disappoint,it became exploitive and pitiful towards the end of the show,as viewers saw Jeff Conaway(Taxi) go into a seizure and subsequently get whisked away via ambulance to the nearest hospital.
The majority of the cast seems to be really dedicated to getting themselves clean and sober and I applaud them for it,but Conaway CLEARLY needs more than a drug rehabilitation clinic can offer.He arrived at the center in a semi-conscious state,and mumbled incoherently throughout the initial entrance exam.He later started babbling and sobbing prior to his seizure and I just feel he belongs in a hospital setting in order to safely detoxify his body and get off drugs.
The only other peeve I have is porn star Mary Carey-Dr.Drew made it crystal clear that ANY sexual activity was off-limits because it is not conductive to recovery and she not only shows up with a suitcase full of sex toys,she is dressed like a Baltimore St. hooker and has already showed her bare ass before the first commercial break.What gives?It is celebrity rehab,not "Whores R Us".I have a hard time taking her seriously when she is flirting with a fellow cast member halfway into the hour long show and when he refuses her advances and tells her to stay out of his room,she moons him!Is she there to get clean or just add to her resume?
I DO anxiously await the next episode because I am truly interested in what happens and I can already see that Daniel Baldwin and Brigitte Nielsen are gonna butt heads,because they are both dominant,authoritive personalities who are used to being the big dog.We shall see what unfolds,but I honestly hope this works for everyone involved.And if they consider another season after this one is up,I nominate Tiffany from "Rock of Love" as their first patient.She showed the world she was a raging alcoholic on the first episode of "ROL"!

Just STFU!

A Parade magazine poll named Rosie O'Donnell the most annoying celebrity,with Paris hilton at a close second and she agrees,saying all celebrities are annoying but she is unimpressed with the results of the poll.Why can't Rosie just shut up?

I actually liked her back in the old days when she was appearing on VH1's "Standup Spotlight",when she was a struggling comedienne.She was a better standup act than she was an actress but she still was not annoying.While I never watched her talk show,apparently alot of people did because she was successful.Then she just started going whacko!I honestly think its menopause because this chick is a fruit loop!She all of a sudden decided that she knew everything and started talking and has not stopped since.The whole feud with Donald Trump was infantile but she did not stop there.Everybody who did not agree with her were ignorant homophobes.She has offended everyone she ever interogated on "The View".It is better to keep your mouth shut and have people wondering if you are a fool than to open your mouth and prove it,Rosie.

Rock of Love 2 begins January 13,2008!!!!

In a previous post http://totmom.blogspot.com/2007/12/dont-threaten-me-with-good-time-bret.html I told you all about how Rock of Love 2 was set to air in 2008 and the first episode is Sunday,January 13 at 9 pm EST.The encore season was great,much better than other similar reality/dating shows.Bret Michaels returns to let another group of girls try to win his heart.Here's hoping that Evick appears again in the 2nd season(those guys can DRINK!),and better luck with love the second time around!!!
