Giant Shlub brings the girls inside to show what he's got so far, but he still needs to add sound. He says that he's gonna go home and finish it meaning he'd rather be able to smoke cigarettes and drink tubs of pepsi in the convenience of his own home while working on it. Either that, or he's late for a Madden tournament. Either way, I like this dude since he basically brushes off Lizza while she barks orders at him. The next day, Lizza gives him a call to see if he's on his way and he gives the greatest answer ever - "Yeah, uh about that...".
You're getting pissed about a stupid clip reel for a lame Tiffany "New York" Pollard performance. Really?
When Lizza calls the schlub again later on, his voicemail says, "This is Mike. Leave a fucking message." Hilarious. He calls later and gives a couple of excuses and says he'll meet them there. New York, livid, nonsensically says, "YOu should never have put me in that business of that fat, nasty, greasy bitch puttin' together my reel." New York decides to ignore it and go back to practicing (snorting) her lines.
"Excuse me, I have to go get my drama on."
New York and Lizza get to the theater soon after their call with Schlubby Mike and are getting panicky. It's 5 minutes before the show and yet, he's still not there. Suddenly, the girls hear a knock at the door and a slackery sounding guy asking, "anybody home??" Love this guy. He gives New York the tape and she shoos him off.
Keep this guy around, please.
It's finally showtime and the clipreel basically starts off mocking her - it shows the big fight between her and Pumpkin. Soon after, however we see some legit work that New York's been in (surprising!), including Nip Tuck and First Sunday. She comes onstage with a monologue of a maid getting fired, and really should stick with what she's typecasted for - obnoxious chickenhead. I only say this because she had a serious overacting moment when, while talking about dog shit for some reason, she drops that booty while sniffing her nose.
Or maybe she's just acting out a metaphor for her talent.
After the performance, she gets a passionless round of applause, but of course is thrilled by it. Feeling her inner diva, she makes the potential managers wait outside while she yaps about herself. By the time she gets out, all of the managers have left since they probably have other clients that aren't famous for getting spit on in the mouth or dumped by a guy who wears a viking helmet seriously. Upset but not defeated, New York does what many of us are doing these days, during these harsh times - she gets a good buzz on.
"Mama needs her sauce."
Well, that's it for this first episode of New York goes to Hollywood. Based on the upcoming preview, it looks like we have some mild success, a new man, and more bat-shit insanity coming our way. And you can be sure as Sister Patterson's latest frok that I'm gonna bring it to you. Until next week!

Thanks for the recap HayHor. Do we really think she's not going to be able to get some kind of bit acting part in 30 days? I'm sure VH1 will get the fix in at some point. Oh well, I'm a celebreality schmuck so I'll keep watching.
