You may or may not have noticed that there was a delay in getting out the recap for The Surreal Life Fame Games this week. The reason for that is that I spent this weekend at my very first Mardi Gras. I personally feel like being allowed to have open alcohol in public is the greatest law man has made since repealing prohibition. On top of that, I've been having issues with my DVR, but I managed to get it working so I could watch this week's episode. But enough excuses, let's get to the action.
This week's episode kicks off the morning after CC Deville was eliminated, and Rob is a little delusional in dealing with his grief. He has a fake conversation between himself and CC where he also plays the part of CC, he moves a plant in the middle of a bedroom, and he writes a song about missing CC. Maybe it's just me, but it seems slightly homo-erotic.
Rob was complaining a lot that the B-listers won the competition last night, but he says now that he was just joking and being a goofball. He explains that to Manny, who doesn't really believe it. Rob also said that he explained the situation to Verne last night, and he goes to explain it to the B-list ladies. The ladies also don't necessarily believe him. If he'd just completely ignored the situation, then I could see why everybody would be pissed, but he went and talked to all of the B-listers. You can think he was covering his ass, but if he was sincerely just being a "goofball," then there's really nothing more he can do to make these people understand. And if you've ever seen The Helix...Loaded then you know how good of an actor he really is, so maybe he was just really kidding.
The house mates get a message from Robin about lunch for the day. The A-listers will be leaving to eat with an A-list star, but the B-listers will just be leaving to eat.
Manny and Rob go to wake up Verne, but Verne is still pissed off about Rob's reaction to the B-listers winning the competition yesterday. Remember when Rob said he explained to Verne that he was just joking? Yeah, I don't think he really did, because Verne didn't want to go anywhere today because he was still pissed. Either that or Verne is just being a big baby about the whole thing. Get it? Big baby? I'm here all night. Anyways, rather than stay at home and make the rest of the B-listers stay home by default, Verne decides that he will, in fact, get up and go.
Before we head to the commercial break we see the A-listers get into their stretch SUV limo and who is driving but none other than Big Rick, he of the Flavor of Love fame. So while the A-listers are riding in the limo, spouting out names of who they think they'll be eating with, like Donald Trump and Steve Wynn, I'm thinking they're going to see Flavor Flav and be severely disappointed. Unless they love VH1 cross-promotion!
Well, after the commercial break we find out that they're eating with Robin Leach himself. He's the A-list star. Wait, he's the A-list star? I wonder if they had somebody back out last second, and Robin had to fill in. Well, I should mention that they're eating at Wolfgang Puck's Spago, which if you remember from earlier in the season, Ron Jeremy knows him *namedrop*.
During the lunchtime discussion, Robin asks why anyone seeks fame. Ron goes into this spiel about being a sex object, something about R-rated sex objects, like Andrea, softcore sex objects, and hardcore sex objects. Ron seriously doesn't shut up about anything. It's like if you ask him a question about anything general, he'll respond with something long-winded, possibly containing a reference to a celebrity he knows personally, and then it will end with a bad dick joke.
The B-listers go to the Hofbräuhaus Las Vegas. When they walk in, they each get a crazy hat to wear, and then they go in and eat. Traci says that because they're B-listers, they don't get what the A-listers get all the time. She also said that water is wet and she likes fun. Seriously, I haven't been paying attention to the clips of her complaining all the time, so it could be that VH1 is just using the clip on loop to point out how she complains, but wouldn't she be getting used to it by now?

Andrea Lowell has a major crush on Vanilla Ice. You can tell she's constantly fawning over him and touching him. Too bad for her he's married.
And why is Mini-me so angry all the time? He's in a perpetual state of pissedoffedness about the slightest things.

I would totally do rubber chicken shot with Chyna, Tracey and KatiesHole.
Find the hooker? Has VH1 just given up on any attempt at class or propriety? Who is coming up with these shows? Worse yet, who is signing their paychecks?
I wish someone would pay me to come up with disgusting challenges. Here are a few: "Whose poop is this?", "Trace the STD", "Build A Dog House Out of Pubes," "Panties: Used Or Clean?", "Name That Celeb Who's Done Anal Bleaching."
That only took me two minutes! Maybe I, too, can be a VH1 producer.

Pep why cant you stand up to Vanilla Ice? Arent you one of the founding mothers of hip hop? If anyone can put a wannabe punk in his place, it should be you! No wonder his rap career blew up in his face. How can a white guy even think he'd be a good rapper when he has zero respect for black women?
that said, it's really disappointing how this show does more to ruin the public's perception of has-beens. Flavor Flav and the My Fair Bradys seem to be the only ones who made this show work for them. Everyone else just comes off more pathetic each week. Please but this series to rest and focus on the spin offs.
Lowell proves you dont even have to be cute to get in playboy- you just have to be dumb and easy. China Doll has pissed me off since she first made a huge drama about giving mini-me the mini room, what a stupid cunt. CC Deville, Ron Jeremy, Vanilla Ice, no one cares. None of you have balls.
Manny was the only watchable person but even still, he loses points for just coming on this show.
