Looks like my karma for all of those hours of voluntarily tickling homeless men has finally paid off because Ray J is back! So I totally tried to audition for this season but chickened out the night of the event. All of the castings were held at clubs and I didn't think my sweatpants and penny loafers would stand a chance against the foxy ladies of NYC. Those who can do; those who can't have to suffer through looking at this all season.
Ray catches us up from last season and tells us that Cocktail was the best girl in the house last season but she wasn't the girl for him. I believed this the first two times Flavor Flav did it and the first time New York did it but now I think these "stars" just keep coming back for the free booze, easy sex and $30,000 per episode. Anyone else with me? Let's meet the girls. I'll include pictures later once they're all suitably degraded with trivial nicknames.
First up is Bethany. She thinks that Ray is "so cute" and is also wearing Seinfeld's puffy shirt.
Sharmisa, the resident hoodrat, has perfected the art of the neck roll; she can roll and threaten at the same time. She says that she wants Ray J so bad that she can already taste his lips. Quick heads up: you've probably already tasted them through the VH1 three degrees of separation.
Franshelle...let's just say that she's a cheeseburger away from being eliminated. Alison doesn't get starstruck because she dated Tyson Beckford. I'm thinking she's Giuliana DePandi Rancic in a Big Momma suit. I, for one, am so glad she's not a groupie anymore. Now she's just an obnoxious name dropper. Alison says she attracts celebrities because of the way she carries herself and can't help it. I suppose I could attract celebrities too if my thighs never met each other. Susanna is really excited to see Lil'B (Ray J's godsister and groupie sorter outer) because she's "so cute". I must admit that I've missed Lil'B too. No one can start a sentence with "your man" the way Lil'B does.
.
Leila is this season's "Caviar." Another woman with a completely ridiculous accent that will probably require subtitles. I didn't sign up for reading class VH1!!! Leila can't believe the house and rhetorically asks if she's on MTV Cribs. Please note that she is saying this in full Pepe LePew accent.
Hana says that everytime she sees Lil B, she's on TV.
The ladies begin claiming their beds and inevitably there is an issue. Pepe Le Pew claimed a bed but Sharmisa, in full hood rat mode, insists that she's always on the bottom. Music to Ray J's ears.
Hana, no surprise, is a self-described party girl and Rachel doesn't bother to pick a room as she goes straight for the liquor. Connie enters the room as Brandy and Sharmisa bond over being 21 and therefore the youngest ones in the house. Connie, who looks to be Halle Berry's taller and more makeup covered sister suddenly overheats and begins fanning excessively.
Either she can't take the pressure or she's menopausal.
So what if she used to bartend at Studio 54?

@ itchy: That's only the tip of the iceberg.
If there's one thing I cannot stand more than any other, it's when a parent fucks up the spelling and/or pronunciation of their children's names.
And what gets me is the fact that they say that they're trying to be "original." Yeah, you're original, all right...originally retarded as fuck.
Sorry about the rant, but I needed to get that off my chest.

Great recap!
I'm pretty sure all these "For the Love of [insert celebrity name here]" girls are all the same at this point. Literally. I'm convinced that they're all the same girls in every show. All you would have to do is buy a new weave and you're good to go...

Extra looks like a dead ringer for Lil Mama when she has her hair curly. It's very distracting!
