Making the Band

makingtheband3_06120805.jpgGet ready America, because you’re lives are about to change. From now on colors will seem brighter and smells will smell sweeter. Why you ask? Because from this point on we have the next great super girl group in our midst. After all the waiting, all the drama, all the Diddy ego trips, we have finally reached the end. This is the final episode of Making the Band 3 and Diddy will make his dream of having a crappy girl band come true. And what a final episode. We get lots of crying, drama and even a cameo from a washed up supermodel. Who will make the band? Is Dominique up to the challenge? Will Aubrey and Aundrea be split up? Will Denosh’s attitude finally ruin her chances or get her into the band? Find out after the jump…. You know this is a big episode when Diddy takes the stage front and center right from the beginning. He brings the girls together to tell them something. In order to prepare for the next phase of the competition he is sending the girls home. For 3 months. And that’s just the opening of the show! Diddy so is fired up when he is introducing the episode he drops the F bomb twice in two sentences. Does that make you feel like a big man Diddy? Feel like a hotshot? Swearing to all the 12 year old girls who watch the show? For shame. For mother f’in shame.

We flash forward 3 months and see all the girls greeting each other outside the loft. Part of me was hoping that Aubrey would gain like 30 pounds in the three months that they were all off (It’s what girls normally do after I break up with them). But no, she kept herself together. Other girls however went through quite a transformation. Taquita, the funny one, went from Sideshow Bob to Mariah Carey (sans insanity) with a major makeover. As the girls are going through a big reunion photo shoot we see Taquita working it like there’s no tomorrow with her new look.

makingtheband3_01120805.jpg

Aubrey and Aundrea on the other hand are getting a little emotional. Since their 2 year career of trying out for a reality show is now coming to a close, they are getting teary eyed at the prospect of not being picked together. Aww. Don’t worry Aundrea, there’s always Making the Band/Road Rules Challenge The Gauntlet 4 to look forward to.

Once Dawn is up to get her pictures taken the entire room is suddenly abuzz. It seems washed up aging coked out model Naomi Cambell has entered the room. Diddy has invited her to help with the girls photo shoot. This truly is a surprise. And if this was 1996 it would be quite an event. But since this is 2005, it’s really quite sad. Makes you wonder how truly cool Diddys party actually are if this is his guest list. Imagine going to the Hamptons for one of his shin digs and once you walk in the door you see Naomi Campbell. Then you turn the corner and see the band Right Said Fred. And over there it’s the guy who played Wilson from Home Improvement. From there you saunter up to the bar and notice that the only thing they have is Zima and Popov Vodka. It’s not a pretty site.

makingtheband3_03120805.jpgOf course since the girls want to be in the band when Naomi walks in they all act like Jesus himself was reincarnated and walked into the room. Well, more like if Jesus was reincarnated, walked into the room, did a line of coke, and berated an intern because his half caf soy latte wasn’t hot enough. Diddy puts it best when he says that she’s here to help. “Up til now it’s been a lot of cutting asses. Cuttin asses. This week it’s about nurturing y’all.� Couldn’t have said it better myself.

Naomi’s advice boils down to something like “Look at the camera. Stick your leg outâ€?. Things of that nature. They are so lucky she’s there for the girls. Otherwise they wouldn’t know to look at the camera, or stick there legs out. I think we can safely say Naomi has averted a major disaster. “Diddy could not have given us a better gift.â€? Say’s Denosh. She is so right. When my mom asked me what I want for Christmas I said a coked out washed up model to give me picture taking advice. But knowing my moms she’ll probably screw it up and get me a washed up actress like Fay Dunaway to give me acting advice instead.

After the photo shoot Diddy tells them that they are all going to meet up later on with some on one meetings later so he can start to make his decision. Get the chapstick ready its time for another Diddy asskissathon. The big question he asks most of the girls is what they have been doing in the last 3 months. We get a range of answers from “taking dance lessons, singing lessonsâ€? to Dawn going for the sympathy vote with her “part time job. Six dollars an hour scrubbing floorsâ€? to Wanita’s weird “I overdosed on vocal lessonsâ€?. From there we see Kelli, who looks like she actually overdosed on something. The girl looks like crap. When Diddy asks what she has been doing for the last 3 months, she says she has been dancing 2 or 3 times a day, she worked out sometimes at 9 in the morning after only 2 hours sleep, and she radically changed her diet. Damn woman, relax. And from the look of her, her diet must now consist of coffee and cigarettes.

makingtheband3_07120805.jpg
How much?

When Diddy’s done he tells them its all in gods hands (meaning him I can assume) and sends the girls off until tomorrow. The next morning Diddy tells them that this week he is going to be working with them a lot and first up is an interview with the “number one radio show in New York with the number one radio personality�. At this point I, like most of the girls, were thinking “Oh cool , they are going on the Howard Stern Show.� But apparently Diddy must be high on something because he says they are going to meet someone named “Miss Jones�. At this point I call bullshit. As an avid Stern Fan I remember him talking about this recently when they started advertising Miss Jones as the “#1 show in NY�. After a bit of research they found out that they really meant she was the #1 Hip Hop radio show in New York. Fantastic. I’d also like to announce that my radio show that I do in my boxers every night before I go to bed is the # 1 radio show in my apartment.

The interview of course sucks, with Miss Jones and her crew basically equating good radio with bad insults. And I mean bad insults in the “not funny� category. But the jokes on them when halfway into insulting Dawn she reveals that she and her family, who are from New Orleans, lost everything in Hurricane Katrina. With that the whole insult vibe leaves and Miss Jones gets all emotional. Suck on that Miss Jones!

Once that is over the girls are then taken in front of Laurie Ann who has spent the last 3 month practicing her boom cats. And then it hits me. This will be the last time we will hear the boom cats. A moment of silence please. Once the girls are into their routine Diddy shows up in one of his ill fitting thousand dollar suits. The entire room gets quiet as Diddy basks in his huge ego while the girls hang on his every word.

With that Laurie Ann says they are all going through every routine from the entire season. As they are dancing Diddy asks Laurie Ann who she thinks her top 5 is. She whispers it in his ear. Damn you Diddy! Stop toying with me! But he isn’t just toying with me; he’s toying with the girls. He says nothing and just leaves, while one of his entourage members opens the door for him. That’s right, Diddy does not waste time with things like door knobs. That is for the little people. I heard the same guy is in charge of wiping his ass, and judging from the size of Diddy’s waistline lately, that must be a rough job.

Later, Diddy has all the girls assemble and picks out Dawn, Wanita, Shannon, Aubrey and Jasmine and has them sing one of the 3 crappy songs form this show that has plagued my dreams for the last month. Diddy then starts mixing and matching with different girls looking for the right mix for his new super group. This is the main reason Diddy decided to even do this show in my opinion. Doing that whole cold as ice “stop the musicâ€? bit when he doesn’t like what he hears. Making the girls come and go on his whim. You can literally see his head expand before our eyes. It’s good the be the king.

makingtheband3_05120805.jpg
The 14,349th reason to hate the Yankees

After he does this for a while he gets together with his posse and goes over the girls. Diddy thinks Denosh is stepping up but detects her attitude. He thinks she is like oil and water with the other girls and she is constantly doing her own thing. Shannon he is very impressed with, and so am I. I don’t remember her being as hot as she looks this episode. Dawn is a “leadoff hitter�. And Jasmine. Well Jasmine has “pop� according to Diddy. He also says she makes it “Like BET�. I guess you could say that Jasmine is like the Tavis Smalley of the group. Aundrea on the other hand is questionable. He cut her of mid song and told her to go outside. While we see her in the hallway on the verge of tears, we see Diddy saying that “Aundrea is not doing her thing at all�.

The next day the girls get a call saying Diddy wants to meet with Shannon, Jasmine and Melissa one on one. When they get there the whole crew is assembled and they are grilling each girl about wanting to be in the band. He meets with Shannon and Diddy questions her shyness, then with Jasmine who can’t keep a harmony.

From there we go to Laurie Ann in the dance studio working with Kelli and Dominique. Since this is the last episode we get a flurry of boom cats. Unfortunately Laurie Ann also starts calling Kelli “Honey bunches of oats� and Dominique “Dominquetch�. Ugh. Kelli has showed marked improvement in her dancing, which I can assume is from the massive amounts of amphetamines in her system for the last three months. Dominique on the other hand is still the chubby girl who can’t dance. You just can’t get blood from a stone. When Laurie Ann wishes them luck Dominique starts to cry, and Laurie Ann says� Am I losing you? Because it’s OK if I’m losing you.� Huh? Either she is really bad at cliché talk, or Dominique just got bitch slapped.

Boom! Cat!

Next up we have Diddy in the studio bringing in the girls to record a track. My ex-girlfriend Aubrey is up first and even in the studio she is banging out that awesome stomach. When Diddy doesn’t like what he hears and Aubrey, not missing a chance to polish MR. Combs apple, says “Is there any way I can turn this so I can look?â€? Meaning look at Diddy. Diddy tells her no, and Aubrey is left to sing without staring into his eyes. So sad. I give her props for throwing a pitch right in Diddy’s wheelhouse though. When in doubt tell him how awesome he is. When its Dominique’s turn Diddy is so impressed he tells her that he got goosebumps. “In the music biz we call that the goose bump factor.â€? Boy wouldn’t it suck if he doesn’t pick her after blowing this much smoke up her ass?

Diddy once again gets on Aundrea’s ass (I’d love to get a chance to do that) when it’s her turn. She’s doing too much of the “sexy voice� and Diddy thinks it sounds forced, or “telegraphed�, which is the word he has been waiting to use all day. But Aundrea being plucky, steps up and on her next go around does a good performance. Well, good enough for Diddy at least.

After that its decision time. While the girls are out to dinner, Diddy assembles his posse and they all decide who will make the band. As far as their comments go, Doc proves to be the most intelligent of the bunch, and Laurie Ann proves to be the biggest idiot of the group. Whereas Doc will give intelligent critiques of each ones singing, Laurie Ann says things like “you might not feel her fire�. Wow. Maybe I’m just spoiled from the return of Project Runway, the intelligent mans reality show, but man I hate that crappy mindless critiquing. If I have to hear someone be told that they have to “step it up� one more time I’m going to scream.

Over at the “Last supper� its time to watch what girls always do when they get together other than hot lesbian orgies (don’t think I don’t know ladies. I know), which is sappy huggy talk. Aundrea tells Aubrey how much he loves her and how she thinks of her as her best friend. Both of them are crying and it’s a really touching scene. At least it would be except for the huge herpes on Aubrey’s lip, or as I like to call it “EdHill’s going away present�.

makingtheband3_04120805.jpg

Finally, finally, its time to make the band. We cut to later that night on a rooftop overlooking Times Square where Diddy in front of a group of screaming girls, brings the girls out and gets ready to announce who made it.

The first girl he picks is the obvious one. My ex girlfriend and STD infested Aubrey. Next up it’s Wanita. Third girl is another obvious one, Shannon. She truly stepped up. Oh Christ now I’m talking like them. I need to watch some Tim Gunn after this to cool down. Then he picks Dawn. He ends each pick with an equally creepy “Come to Daddy”.

Finally its time for the last girl. After a dramatic pause its…. Aundrea! Yeah! Hugs all around! Hugs! And now some gentle kissing! What? No? Ok, hugs are fine then….

So that’s our girl group that Diddy is declaring will “take over the world�. That’s right, the new girl group is like the Nazi war machine! So get ready America. We are about to be blitzkrieged with a really bad song that will barely make the top 40 and then disappear. I can’t wait!

Sadly for the other girls its back to obscurity. Denosh didn’t make it. Probably because Diddy wanted an all girl group. She can now go back home and bully her boss at Taco bell. And poor Dominique is forced to pack up her goose bumps and go home. But something tells me we’ll see her again. She really was a good singer.

So that’s that. The end. What did you guys think? Do you think the band will be any good? Do you think they can bring the Boom Cats?

    Shannon is smoking hot in this episode.

    One thing you didnt mention, which I found hilarious was when Melissa was being interviewed about why she should be chosen over the others.

    She said she was well rounded, to which Laurie Ann laughed out loud.

    Boom Cat indeed

    Noooo, EdHill! I could’ve sworn Laurie Ann said “Dominique-age” (pronounced like “idge”) which was HILARIOUS. And lay off Aubrey’s STDs… that’s just the next level of the “goosebump factor.”

    I was surprised to see that Shannon and Wanita made it. I thought that Dominique-age and/or Taqueets would make it instead in order to add some diversity to the group.

    Anyway, I’m going to miss this show and all of the melodrama that went with it. Band: made.

    First of all, I don’t think Naomi Campbell is washed up. Second of all, you messed up so much stuff about this episode.

    CORRECTION: It was Taquita, not Dawn, who took the sympathy vote with the “part time job and scrubbing floors”. Also, It was Jasmine, not Wanita, who “overdosed” on vocal lessons.

    I also thin Kelli didn’t look bad. You’re just a hater (like Taquita said on the radio show).

    You could have point out better things about this episode like Jasmine coming back looking like Lil’ Kim or when Laurie Ann told Dominique “I’m all for the stinky face, but you’re doing it TOO much.” Or even when Doc was trying to get Jasmine to harmonize with him and out of all the songs in the world he could’ve chosen to harmonize with this girl, he made her look SO STUPID by singing “Mary Had A Little Lamb”. How dumb did Jasmine look? Very.

    I think the band will be good if they get some good producers to drop some tight beats cause “Touchin’ My Body” is not gonna do the job. Plus they’re all pretty hot.

    Last thing. I DID NOT think the herpes joke was funny. That was VERY rude and disrespectful to that female. Especially since it was Aubrey. I couldn’t believe my eyes when I read and saw that. I would take that out if I was you.

    Personally, for this to be the last episode, tou could’ve done a much better in depth recap.
    *but good job on all the other episodes (at least up to the third to last episode, that where you started to fall off….and become VERY late with the recaps).

    i knew from the time i saw Shannon this season she will be in the band..she was in a show called “Fame” before where she ended up 2nd and Johnny Wright was one of the judges..he was so in love with her then and said he will try to support her in her career..there’s the reason why Shannon is in the group..she’s pretty and can dance but she’s not a very good singer..oh well..

    Dominique should be signed as a solo by Diddy..if not, he’ll regret it because that girl can sang!!!

    Every time they showed Shannon, it looked like she was thinking something dirty. Which is great in my book.

    I was wondering if Laurie Ann laughed out loud because Melissa’s body is well rounded…… BTW she’s a Sports By Brooks girl. http://sportsbybrooks.com/Melissa.html

    Some other notes

    1. Melissa has the BEST body of those girls (especially her abs). Granted that’s probably all she has. Laurie Ann laughing at her was priceless.

    2. Dominique-itch (how I heard it) compared Naomi Campbells presence to how Charlie Murphy described Rick James. “The color of her aura”. Wonder if that’s the only time she ever heard the word aura.

    3. Taquita is the one talked about working a lot.

    4. I think the only reason I watched this show was to see the girls dance. Still, it was reason enough.

    5. Wow. I didn’t realize Shannon could talk. I think prior to the last 2 episodes, she averaged about 0.1 soundbites per episode.

    6. Jasmine singing ‘Mary had a little lamb’. Wonderful. Wonderful TV that is.

    7. Aubrey’s herpes. Well…there’s always Aundrea.

    8. The bands performance wasn’t all that wonderful. Diddy didn’t seem to mind. Guess he realized he was stuck with them. I seriously doubt they’ll be taking over the world…

    …nice try Napoleon.

    hah, i’m so glad you included that herpes bit! i was wondering if you’d catch that. (i completely disagree with brealfrank. you can’t pretend it’s not herpes). word to whoever mentioned aubrey’s transvestite look during some of the confessional interview things. she straight up looked like a drag queen with that crazy eyeliner.

    I agree with brealfrank 100%. This review seemed kind of half-a$$ed, and there was so much stuff left out/mistakes made. There was so much golden material in this episode.

    I was, however, cracking up at the Naomi Campbell jokes, only because of all the negative things I had already heard about her. Apparantly, it is completely in character for her to show up three hours late to a photo shoot.

    The herpes thing is DISRESPECTFUL! There’s no way around that. EdHill basically said that Aubrey gave him a blow job and he gave her herpes (which also insinuates that he has herpes…..)How would you feel if that was your mom or sister? I don’t agree.

    I probably would’ve gave him some slack on that though if:
    1)The recap was on time (faster, much faster, than last time, but I still felt it was rushed)
    2)The recap was better (he left out the majority of the good joke opportunities)
    AND
    3)If he didn’t get so many names, quotes, and situations wrong or mismatched.

    I was very dissapointed at this recap. Sorry, but someone had to let him know.
    For goodness sakes, it was the last episode!

    I wonder if the show will be back, watching the girls try to make it. I would love a reunion show with the girls who didn’t make it, just to hear what they have to say. And for another chance to laugh at Denosh.Thank goodness she didn’t make it, these girls are going to have a hard enough time without the penis tucker around.

    Thanks to brealfrank for pointing out how half-assed this last recap was. I really enjoyed them, late as they were, up until now. There were so many mistakes in this one that I almost wish it was late. And it seems that the funniest parts were not mentioned.

    The interview were hilarious….and what was with the snarkiness about the Hot97 morning show w/Miss Jones? It’s not Howard Stern, but do you think Howard would have been nice to them????

    brealfrank, maybe you should write a recap of this episode. I’m sure you would do a much better job than edhill.

    Bealfrank, are you pissed because you have herpes? Maybe EdHill’s comments hit a little too close to home……

    Perhaps you should realize that Aubrey, Aundrea and all the other interchangeable girls of MTB3 are reality stars, which means that they SIGNED contracts to appear on NATIONAL TV which gives me, you, EdHill and every other person in the free world the right to poke, prod and make fun.

    Maybe you should just chill. It’s funny. If you don’t like it, DON’T READ IT.

    Team EdHill you’re getting hit hard here but I kind of agree with everyone that this was a bit of a half-a$$ed recap.

    But I kind of get why though–it feels like the show kind of started to peter out at the end. I’ve been obsessed with this show all season (and last season) – maybe the ending seemsed anti-climatic?

    Aubrey seemed like such a star until her shit%y performance at that concert and subsequent idiot remarks. So by taking away her aura (or super star shine), they made the show worse.

    Also, what’s up with Jasmine – how do you make it to the finals of a girl singing group and not be able to harmonize??

    Anyway, I’ll buy their cd, but somehow it is a bit of a let down. I really wanted that thing that’s been missing from my life to be fixed with this group and sadly, I don’t think it will be.

    I’m expecting a mildly entertaining CD to come out, sell 500,000 copies (Dream? Da Band? O town? Those pop star girls?), and then poof these girls will be gone..oh well, smell ya later.

    She’s just so cute! And has a great voice. And that deadly serious look she had when doing that terrible routine Laurie Ann had then doing with the scarves…

    She definitely has something about her that makes you want to watch her.

    Kelli reminds me of Julia Stiles in Save the Last Dance. The whole white girl trying to do the ‘hip hop’ look and language. It’s unbearable to watch, no?

    Gotta love at the end when THE band was singing, they ban over to Diddy who looks like a 13 year old girl singing along and waving his hands around. Best moment of the whole episode.

    Great recap EdHill, don’t listen to the haters.

    I completely agree on the show petering out … I thought the recap (like all) was great (the Popov vodka reference was classic). I thought this finale was lackluster ..

    If anyone is upset about disrespecting women … WHY NOT LOOK AT THE SHOW? Diddy commented several times about wanting to see the girls in bikinis, then at the end … “come to daddy?” Ugh!

    Why is it that anyone who’d voice a complaint feel that they are owed a recap in any sort of timely matter? If you’re that upset about it … write one yourself!

    I laughed aloud several times while reading this recap, so not bad, Ed Hill! Besides, anything that allows escape from my dull job is A-OK with me. As far as herpes is concerned, I’m sure that wouldn’t stop most hot-blooded males from making out with Aubrey, or they would wait until the bump went away or work neck down. It is great that everyone wants to be all PC, but PC is what makes the dumb Valtrex commercials. People with herpes can finally go white water rafting and have relationships. The only thing wrong with belated recaps is the fact that we already expressed our views in the reply section to last week’s episode recap (the same day of the finale). I agree with Sweet J and the whole being a finalist, but can’t harmonize. That’s like an illiterate graduating high school. (Literacy is a serious matter and my snide jokes do not take away from the fact) Figured a disclaimer was needed…

    Thanks for the recap EdHill. It wasn’t like your previous posts, but it was funny nonetheless.

    I think that [b]tkdnyc[/b] did a pretty good recap, nice and down to the point.

    BTW, is it just me that found Aundrea being ecstatic when she found out that she made it in, cute? Can’t believe you didn’t recap on that alone!!

    This group is going to suck! Who the hell is Shannon? Has she done anything this season? She’s pretty, but I don’t remember what she can do. With that said, who is Diddy trying to cater to with this group? This will be another act under Diddy’s belt gone bad.

    If i had to pick the band, I would have chosen;
    Aubrey
    Aundrea
    Shannon
    Dominque
    Melissa

    However, Dominque does not belong in a group. She is a solo star and I believe that Diddy knows this and will jump on her talent right away. Denosh is extemely talented and I believe that it is “experience” that held her back. She was already serious.. she already knew how to be….Those girls have to get to that point not to be offended by her hard work ethic. I do not believe she looks like a man. I think she is very attractive as all of the other girls are. I truly believe that she was “too seasoned”… and that, can hold you back. I think everyone liked Jasmine’s look but when it was time to judge her based on talent, Doc really sidelined her. Diddy seemed disappointed that she could not haromonize well becasue I think he really wanted to put her in there. Shannon is really a butterfly. When they were doing their initial auditions with Diddy, he pulled her out and wanted her to dance for him. I really like her spirit. Aundrea, definately has a lot of talent and i love her voice. However, i think that she will have a image issue. She seems to not like “uncovered up” look. She really likes to go on her natural sexiness instead of the created one that and I think that will later cause a problem since Diddy loves the sexy image vibe.

    Over all, of course Aubrey is the star. I mean, simple as that. She has “it”. Whatever, Jennifer Lopez has, Beyonce has.. she has “it”. That appeal that 1 out of a million has.

    I wish all of the girls well…. Over all, Diddy did a great job!

    interesting fact. after the tsunami “miss jones” and the rest of her morning zoo created a song called “the tsunami song” which was one of the most racist and revolting things ever put to music. one of her minions was fired, she was suspended for a period of time, a lot of people were calling for her ass to be put out to pasture. how standard that she would insult victims of hurricane katrina. amazing.

    Finally, I been waiting like 3 days or more for this.. I haven’t been online for awhile.. Loved the finale.. The recap was pretty okay but, not okay with the whole mistakes that you made.. But, I give you props for giving us this recap even though it sucks.. Diddy was definitely funny at the end when he started to sing and wave his hands.. The whole herpes thing, that was whack.. No need to make fun of her ‘cuz of that.. For all you know, it could have been a pimple.. I have a friend who has a pimple on his upper lips.. So what? I’m glad Aubrey and Aundrea got to be in the band together.. And their speechs were emotional.. And for a guy like me, that brought a little tears to my eyes.. The band is going to be big.. Well, not big BIG but, big.. Nonetheless, pretty okay recap..

    Lazy that made no sense. The recap ‘sucks’ then it is ‘pretty okay’ ? ?

    And how many lips does your friend have? Maybe it’s not a pimple maybe it’s herpes. Maybe he’s telling you it’s a pimple. Plus if he’s got more than one upper lip he’s got more problems than a zit.

    Check back in 1 year and you’ll see the band won’t be big. I’m thinking if they’re verrrrrrrrry lucky a 1/4 of the Spicegirls big. But that’s really pushing it.

    BTW I loved the recap it was hilarious especially the part about that old supermodel crack ho part. LOL

    A little off topic, Thanks for bringing up the wackass interview by HOT97′s Miss Jones… her show is definitely NOT #1 in NYC. And as a local NY’er it is funny to see that Miss Jone’s crew grilling about the Hurricane when just a little less than a year ago she herself was making fun of the Tsunami victims of South East Asia which caused quite a local controversy.

    So do you think there will be a season of the band recording their album a la DA BAND?? This finale was the “season finale” not the “series finale.” I would def. watch!

    Loved the ‘Starlet’ reference. Btw, I have watched ‘One Tree Hill’ (sad but true) all season and have yet to see little Michellanne’s smiling face. What a crock that win was.

    EdHill, great recap – as always! I thoroughly enjoyed it.

    I knew the moment I saw that festering sore on Aubrey’s lip that you’d be taking a screen shot of it and you didn’t disappoint.

    I love the recaps on TVGasm and one of the best things about them is that ya’ll don’t include each and every funny thing that happens in a show – which allows the commenters to point some out – that’s part of the fun. So all these critics ripping on you for missing the occasional thing need to calm the heck down.

    Hell, this is just meant to be fun – no need to get so serious and critical for cryin out loud.

    I only watched this show sporadically so maybe this is a silly question, but does this band have a name yet?

    Hey I thought Diddy chose the right girls and I enjoyed the show as well, does anyone know the name of the song the girls sang on the finale when Diddy said Dominique gave him goosebumps cause I really liked it. Totally thought it was better than the other songs performed! And as for Aubrey’s herpes/cold sore, true they are a form of herpes but not all herpes are from sexual contact. I am from Florida and extreme conditions such as heat and cold cause them so beings Aubrey just came back from hiatus in her home state of Southern California chances are the heat and possibly even nerves played a big part in it. I wish all the girls the best of luck!

    EdHill, I can’t believe you made mistakes not differentiating between the one tall girl with the curly hair from the one other one with the lighter hair and the one who can kinda sing and that other little white girl who’s not a very good dancer and the other two who fixed my car and the one we met on the way up in the elevator and the one who hits the really high notes and the one who’s got a bit too much junk in her trunk.

    everyone talking about the herpes thing on aubrey’s lip, esp ANIT and “I didn’t check webmd”…..

    ummm you can get herpes like any way… a lot of people get cold sores all the time and its not even because of getting STDs from sex

    I mean I get cold sores.. or I guess herpes if you really want to be technical… all the time and I mean I’m a virgin. I think its just cause this whole society is geared towards sex… if there is a sexual explanation.. the majority is going to lean towards that explanation.

    so don’t hate on aubrey and junk just cause she has a cold sore, a pimple, or even just like a cut or whatever… it could even be a mild recovering case of eczema…

    and personally… I think that Diddy did a great job choosing that band.. though I kind of wanted Taquita and Melissa to make it… But I think that Melissa didn’t get picked solely because Shannon came after her and gave a much stronger performance… Melissa is just your average girl-next-door with an average voice.

    Does anyone know what the name to the new band is? I read somewhere its “Lady 5″ but I mean I can’t find anything to support that claim. I REALLY hope that being on Diddy’s label doesn’t screw that group over cause I’m really excited about the band…. we haven’t really had a GOOD girl band since Spice Girls…

    Loved Lori Anne laughing at Melissa.

    And Im pissed that Shannon was on FAME. Somehow that doesnt seem fair to me.

    I really liked last season when Diddy stopped the dancing…and said to Aubrey:

    “Aubrey…”
    (and she is completely SHOCKED! How dare The Diddy call her out)

    “Do you have some black in you? Do you hang out with a lot of black people?….Cuz you dance like ur black….All ya’ll needs to be lookin at Aubrey”

    Wow, I can’t believe people are getting really upset over the herpes thing. Me and four of my friends all watch the finale seperately, and when we talked about it later on we all thought about was that it looked like Aubrey had herpes. Almost everybody I’ve talked to who watched the show noticed it, hell I noticed it just from the preview they showed from the week before.

    I think a lot of people have forgotten that TVGasm is half recap, half humour. EdHill’s been making fun of every aspect of this show from the beginning, why should Aubrey be an exception? If he hadn’t said anything you can bet there would have been a whole lot of people bitching about how he missed it.

    Where were you when he was making fun of Denosh’s man ass, Malika’s ego, Diddy’s bichon frise and Laurie Ann’s boom cats? Probably laughing your ass off.

    I just want to start off saying that I am Aubrey’s #1 fan. I have been watching her from the start and i’m really happy that she made the band, but she would have been more successful if she had gone solo. She has the drive, personality, voice, dance moves like any top celeb. out there.

    Aundrea is so cute, and i’m also really happy that she made the band. Unlike Aubrey, she is group material. She is loved by fans and she has an amazing voice. I hope that Aundrea and Aubrey stay friends.

    Why does everybody hate dawn? She has a beautiful voice and a very good dancer and like Andre said she blends in nice with the group.

    Shannon has a very unique voice and it adds a little spice to the band along with her dancing.

    Wantia is very energetic and she also brings her own uniqueness to the group. And did I mention that she lookes great when she came back after the break.

    Overall, i’m really happy with the group and I had these girls picked out from the start (well maby not wanita)

    Does anyone know when their first single is coming out or if there is even going to be a single?

    Hey guys… Aundrea’s last name is Fimbres. I think it’s Hispanic. Also, I dont know if you guys knew about Aubrey’s official website.. it’s cool, check it out.

    Puffy Diddy Piddy Duffy wtf his name is today, should just sign Dominique solo- she was the best singer.
    I believe your prediction is correct- this group will have one lame single that will be overplayed, and we will never hear from them again. Kinda like the first Making Da Band.
    Am I wrong, or is Laurie Ann a former fly girl? I keep seeing this chick on reruns of Living Color who looks like her.

    I think that the re-cap DID leave out many funny situations in this episode…
    I love Aundrea and AUbrey and would have died if Aundrea had not made it.
    DId anyone notice Aubrey having mouth difficulties
    (cold sore on bottom lip)in the beginning when Diddy asked them what they have been doing the past 3 mos.?
    I feel those of you who felt that he was dissing Hot 97 in this re-cap…
    OH AND
    Yes, Laurie Ann was a flyy girl. I was watchin a re-run a week a so ago… thats when I thought I saw her! I waited for the credits– its her! That b1tch is old….

    I have to disagree about the one-hit wonder thing. Diddy (wow I can’t believe we’ve all agreed to call him that) actually went with some real talent this time.

    P.S. The herpes thing was just a joke… EdHill actually gave Aubrey gonorrhea.

    ED HILL, or whoever is a DAMN FOOL> Let’s see three white girls who can’t sing to save their lives, gets picked over two black girls that could blow them away. This is a singing group not a dance team! And P. Diddy said he was giving them to the audience “Their yours, my gift from me”. Sounded more like he was giving them away cause MTV execs Picked the group and not him. Dominique is thick not fat. And thick is better than boobs smaller then most man boobs. Along with she looked better than most the blonde Brunette BUMS in the group, even when she gave the stink face. Laurie Ann can go back to working with Jessica Alba if she thinks dance is more important than singing. I’ll Buy Dominiques album today, I wouldn’t even steal music from the band they made at a free music-give away website. Taquita’s my favorite, and looks better then every girl picked, and had a better attitude and personility. Once again MTV gives Garbage!

    I knew that all of those girls would be picked actually. There was defininately not a surprise element there. I think they should make 2 groups.
    I love Taquita and Dominique. Dominique needs to be a solo act and just bust out and do her own thing. Denosh was not at all appealing, but she has a lot of talent. I really hope this band really does work and they have a few good hits. Overall I loved the show.
    The recap??……I dunno. I thought it was a little too negative. Still a good recap, but I guess everyone has a bad day sometimes.

    Ed Hill Team -
    I agree with the majority of the postings. This recap was a sad one. The bitterness was overdone. In fact, I think you “telegraphed” it. But seriously, I was expecting a lot more than what we got. I understand that you may have a few people on vacation right now and can’t offer the best recap but you can at least get the names of the girls right. It was obvious, who ever wrote the recap, was not an expert on Making the Band at all. It’s as though it was your first time watching the show. All I have to say is: you need to step it up because there’s a hole new batch of kittens waiting to lick up that milk!
    I definitely enjoyed the comments by the readers. All the comments made by the people sticking up for Ed Hill are probably from the Ed Hill team.
    I did enjoy the comment about the herpes because I noticed it too. However, I also noticed that her lips looked like they had been injected with collagen or something. They didn’t look very good (it never looks good) so I hope it eventually goes away. I am an Aubrey fan but she really needs to stop doing that to her lips. Perhaps the herpes or sore was a result of the collagen injection?

    Nobody mentioned the part when one of the crew at the radio station asked Denosh if she was 42. HILARIOUS!!!!

    Posted December 17, 2005 at 6:02 am

    Thank you nurse, for the previous post about Herpes. Just for clarification though, so no one loses sleep, there is Herpes I and herpes II. the genital kind is herpes I. the mouth kind is herpes II (or the other way around). Anyway, the genital kind is obviously sexually transmitted, but if someone with a cold sore has oral sex with someone who did not have herpes in the past, they can transfer it from the mouth to the genitals or from the genitals to the mouth. NOW, if someone has never HAD sex of anykind, they can still contract HERPES II, though I’m not sure of the exact way, and that’s how they have cold sores. The herpes simplexes reside in the spinal nerves when there isn’t an outbreak, and WILL ALWAYS reside there. When the immune system takes a hit, then that’s when the little suckers pop out, either on the mouth or on the genitals. Herpes viruses are the same viruses that cause chicken pox and shingles, yall.

    1. Dominique is fat. So fat in fact that she had to wear pants and a blazer to cover her jiggling lard during the concert performance (and i could still see too many rolls of fat jiggling).

    2. Doc Holliday says in this episode that Aundrea is the best singer of the group.

    geez, chill out everyone! you all sound like edhill killed your firstborn children! IT’S JUST A RECAP of (in my honest opinion) a lame- ass show of a band who (in my opinion– again, take it or leave it, i’m not trying to diss anyone)will not make one top billboard hit.

    some people are VERY hypocritical on this site as well…when the recappers are making fun of a cast member you dislike, some of you are all for it and join in on the name-calling..but as soon as those recappers make a joke about your favorite castmate, they have GONE TOO FAR. please, don’t dish it out if you can’t take it as well.

    * and as for the “disrespect” towards the girls on the show (a.k.a aubrey)–edhill was NOT trying to be disrespectful, he just saw something funny and ran with it. he stated the obvious (that she had something on her mouth)and turned it into something rather comical.. sorry to break it to you, but comedy is not always nice.

    words to touch my body (it may be a little off, i did it from memory):

    Staring at me all night while im out on the floor it was clear what you wanted so you pushed up on it

    i was grindin with the DJ with my hands on the floor, i guess youcouldnt take it, you got tired of wating

    So you walk over to me (rythem in my ear talkin about what could be)
    say you ccan do this and that and you start workin me like a champ and im like

    Chorus:
    OH! you touchin my body, you must want me to get started, boy i cant take it its so crazy how you making me feel

    Now you got me sweatin tonight on my clothes, i was headin for the door but you made it so i had to know

    Just what you was workin with, put em out beck till i come back in see im the one who cant handle it

    The way you workin me im out the door

    Chorus:
    OH! you touchin my body, you must want me to get started, boy i cant take it its so crazy how you making me feel

    Is this what you want?
    (Do you like that)

    Keep it nice and warm
    (Do you like that)

    Do it on the floor
    (Do you like that)

    I wanna give you some more
    (know you like that)

    When you touvhin me like that steo back and catch my breath, this way i never felt you do, and do so well

    Chorus:
    OH! you touchin my body, you must want me to get started, boy i cant take it its so crazy how you making me feel

I’m not saying that she looked bad, actually she looks better thicker. They all looked alot better than they did on the show. But about waiting to hear new info on the band sucks because the more they wait, the more everyone is going to forget about them. If this band doesn’t make it hopefully Aubrey will just go solo.
