Money Hungry- Premiere Recap

When I first heard about this show, I wasn't sure if I would watch since it was another weight loss show. Then when I found out that it is produced by 51 Minds then I decided to watch it. Turns the premiere was pretty good thanks to Phillip who obviously the star of this show. This show is better than Bridal Bootcamp because it has REAL fat people in it.

The contestants were at the bus arriving at the mansion which by the way the same mansion of Bad Girls Club 4 and the entertainment already starts. The bus got stuck and would not go so that was funny, but they arrived  and the mansion had food all over. It had a giant size hamburger, french fries, shakes ect  The host arrived he tells them the only they will be doing today is working out.

Before that, we get introduced to the teams:

Jackie & Kaitlin- Slenderellas

Mark & Joe- Mission Slimpossible

Po & Dave - Regulators

Beth & Carrie - Rocker Moms

Marilu & Bridget - Chicago Deep Dish

Tricia & Missy - Grading Curves

Georgette & Tammy - Double Chocolate

Denise & Katie- Family Sized

Melissa & Josh - No Excusers

Johnny & Yamil - Comdey Duo

Shante and Jamie -Roll Models

Stephanie & Phillip - Flabulous

Before the work out they had a feast, every possible food you could imagine and they all began eating. After that Phillip began to be drunk and wasted and Stephanie did not like that. He tells her "You are not my mom" she stormed off and then Phillip went after her saying "I am sorry" and then when entertainment begins. They were all at the pool, Phillip was wasted and he went to the jacuzzi took off his shorts lol  and just acting crazy.

Then Mark and Joe showed up with just a speedo on. Couple of the girls questioned if they were just there for TV. Next day they did the work out. Phillip was disappointed with himself that he got so big. At the elimination it was between The Flabolous and The Grading Curves. Tricia and Missy were eliminated a.k.a the Grading Curves.

Ochocinco: The Ultimate Catch - Episode 4 Recap


Here is the episode 4 recap of the show. Lots of shakeups on this episode a girl leaves instead of getting eliminated leading up to only one elimination.


The girls think that Candice is a bit stalkerish because she is wearing Chad's clothes, has a football ect during her interview with her she says that she a big football fan. Instead of going on Ustream Chad went their in person and told one group that they will football with him. He chose Candice and Rubi for the match up date.  Before the date Tara wanted to clear things up with Chad, she says that people "don't understand" her humor. So she explains that to him and there is also two cliques that have formed in the mansion. Lisa and Jasmine VS Tara, Laurice and Ericka. Jasmine also calls Laurice "Maurice" referring to her as a man.


Chad took Rubi on date. Candice believes that Rubi is only there for promotion since she is a promoter and for the fact that her sister was one called for an audition. Candace explains that to Chad. Chad admits that he is feeling Rubi though. during dinner Candace tries to rattle out Rubi and Rubi did not back down. She says "Chad is a grown man, he can figure it out?


Back in the mansion Lisa got a phone call that her grandpa was ill. Now why on these VH1 dating shows that there is always a family emergency phone call? This happens all the time. She spoke  with Chad about it and decided to leave. Chad says "family comes fist" So Lisa left, she never went on a date with him. He told the girls about it and they clapping and cheering. Since Lisa left Heather moves to the next round and she will competing with Tara in a  future date which she got nervous about. so he took the other group to an arcade place. 


Heather was a bit pissed because this was supposed to be her date. So they went to arcade place. Whoever got the most tickets would have a one on one time with Chad. Laurice won with over 700 tickets and Heather was pissed off. Laurice and Chad had one on one time. She reveals that she was on marching band and that her mom and grandmother raised her just with Chad.


Then Chad took Heather for an one on one time since this was supposed to be her date. She felt like she had to step it up due to her competing with Tara in the future. At the end of the episode Candace was so confident and thought that she was going to stay but, it did turned out that way. Chad kept Rubi over Candice and she questioned her judgement and left.

Brandy & Ray J Ready Joint Album

R&B siblings Brandy and Ray J have mentioned many a time their desire to release a collaborative album; it now appears such wishes are to come to fruition later this year.

Full story after the jump…

Via Billboard:

“Even though the business is difficult and challenging, we can do a lot of non-traditional and traditional marketing,” Jason said. “And the blending of those things will make us successful where others are struggling.”

Slated for a fourth-quarter release, the Brandy and Ray J project will be a family-oriented album inspired by the siblings’ popular VH1 reality show, “Brandy & Ray J: A Family Business,” which will start its second season September 19. It features performances by various members of the Norwood family, including Brandy, Ray J, father/musician Willie Sr. and manager/mom Sonja.

“The VH1 show gave us a platform to broaden our family brand,” Ray J said, “and now this Time-Life project opens up more doors.”

Footage shot during the family’s recording sessions will appear in the next season of the VH1 show because, Brandy said, “fans want to see us back in the studio.”

As one who has long shuddered at the thought of a Brandy/Ray J LP (just no…), I can’t say news of the album has me anticipating it in any which way. That said, all signs point to the album, thankfully, being a side-project of sorts; clearing the way for what folk are anticipating most – Brandy’s next studio album.

Meet Christine Haeberman Scream Queens 2

Porterville native Christine Haeberman, 28, will be featured in the VH1 horror-themed reality series “Scream Queens 2”, premiering tonight at 10/9c.

Haeberman and nine other contestants on “Scream Queens” will compete to land an acting role in Lionsgate’s upcoming “Saw 3D” horror film.

The cast will endure a horror film boot camp with intense physical challenges, work with creatures, gore and stunts while building on their acting skills, a VH1 press release said.
Actress Jaime King will be the show’s host and also judge along with acting coach John Homa and Tim Sullivan, director of “2001 Maniacs” and “Driftwood.”

Among Haeberman’s greater accomplishments has been the opportunity to be a part of the VH1 series, she said.

“I hope this will open a lot of doors for me as far as moving forward, hopefully it will lead to more acting roles,” she said.

Haeberman, a Monache High School graduate, has an artistic nature and appreciation for the arts, mom Karen Haeberman said. Mrs. Haeberman, a Porerville resident and retired teacher who taught for 36 years at Bartlett Middle School, applauds her daughter’s career.

“I’m very happy that she’s pursuing her dream. This has been her passion for many years, even when she was a little girl she’d act out scenes with friends or even alone,” Mrs. Haeberman said.

Since age eight, Haeberman performed in various plays at the Barn Theatre and at Porterville College. She also worked for a Porterville movie theatre.

“She’s not just talented in acting, she does oil painting, sketching, she always loved to sing and took dance lessons from Dance Horizons. She’s very artistic... but her one true passion is acting,” Mrs. Haeberman said.

Haeberman attended the University of Redlands and graduated with a bachelor’s degree in Studio Art and a minor in Theatre.

Following college, Haeberman moved to Berkeley for two years, where she worked in local community theatres and decided that to make it in the film industry she had to move to Los Angeles.

She currently lives in Los Angeles with boyfriend Justin Fields, a USC graduate and aspiring screenwriter.

“I moved to L.A. five years ago to diligently pursue acting,” she said. “[Being an actress] has its up and downs. Somedays I want to quit and feel like I should be like everybody else and get a real job,” she said.

Haeberman’s most recent work involves a sci-fi film titled “The Millenium Bug,” to debut this Fall and an independent horror film titled “Murder Loves Killers Too,” available on DVD.
Since her appearance on the show, Haeberman said she has learned to gain more confidence in her performance.

“I admire that she doesn’t like to be a star, she doesn’t care about being famous — she sincerely loves acting. It just makes her literally glow from the inside out,” Haeberman’s mom said.

VH1access Interview: Laura Baron (You're Cut Off)

Here is my interview with the life coach of You're Cut Off... Larua Baron. She tells me how she got in the show to be the life coach, She also says that her greatest challenge was to get the girls "invested in the program" She also believes that Chrissy has insecurity issues she has tried to reach to her as well. She gives a shout to me, VH1info ( my blog partner) and Rich from VH1.com.  Follow her on twitter. Visit her facebook page




VH1access: Hello Laura, Thank you for doing this interview with me. How are you?
Laura: I'm great thanks.... you're an important part of our VH1 family, happy to the interview. 




VH1access: The show was a success, the finale ended with big ratings. How did you end up being on this show? Were you offered to be on it?
Laura: Our audience nailed the finale for us... they're amazing, we're so proud to have such loyal supporters! Originally, VH1 reached out to me direct to devise and run the program once they had the concept down. We all clicked immediately, everyone on the project had great intentions. Ironically, the day they wanted to meet the team I was already scheduled out to NY  to meet with TODAY show, it all very easy.




VH1access: Was teaching these girls how to be more independent one of your biggest challenges?
Laura: Before getting them to independence , my greatest challenge was to get them invested in the program. The cameras and lights can be distracting from the core goal. I wasn't there for entertainment, I was there to get these women whole.




VH1access: Who was the most difficult girl to work with?
Laura: They all had their moments.. it was a challenging situation. I expected the push-back. Some were clearly more aggressive, but sometimes those are the easiest to launch because you know exactly what you're getting.




VH1access: Do you think that Chrissy had hidden insecurity issues in her? Watching the show, she was upset that she left.
Laura: Absolutely, I get this question most often especially on my Facebook /Twitter -asklauarbaron accounts. Between Chrissy's need for her compact and need for her attention she showcased her insecurities daily. She had thick walls up out of her self-protection. Unfortunately, she protected herself out of an experience that could've really helped her. It was sad to see her go. I hope she finds someone she'll let in .. she deserves to be happy too.




VH1access: Was there a moment where you thought one of the girls might have gave up on the program and quit?
Laura: Everyday in that program there was a possibility one of the girls would bolt. It was a delicate balance between pushing them and keeping them. They're not women used to be told what to do or being required to share more than their labels and charm... I never concerned myself with anyone stepping out. If they weren't committed , they should't be there. In the end, the girls proved to be smart , too proud , too invested in the program to walk , and after meeting them I expected that too.




VH1access: What was your favorite lesson you did with them?
Laura: I Loved getting them in font of the mirror acknowledging their truths and I love working with PATH. Getting real and giving back are two core values of the program . I was proud how open they were to each.




VH1access: Do you still keep in touch with the girls?
Laura: I do. I've reached to all of them and their families and remain accessible to all of them on an as-needed basis. This is a process. I promised them as long as they were willing to do the work, I'd be there. And I am always will be - they're my girls . I have not spoken to Chrissy, however. I have reached out to her several times again it's her choice.




VH1acces: Will you return for the show's 2nd season?
Laura: Yes. I love the project, the team and the integrity. If there's a second season, I'll be running it... it'd be great to share my program with a new group!




VH1access: You also have a website. can you tell me about it?
Laura: www.asklaurabaron.com has grown with a demand. We get hundreds of write ins weekly requesting advice. .. So to keep it up, we've added the newsletter and additional outreach options alongside a topical blog and exiting changes upcoming. I'll give you updates as they happen. It'll be definitely worthwhile to keep checking back....




VH1access: Thank you Laura for doing this interview. Do you want to give a shout out to anyone?
Laura: Anytime! My shout out is to our amazing supporters like you. You, your buddy  VH1 info and Rich over at VH1 are great examples of people who led the troops to get this show seen and loved. Also, to the women on the show brave enough to show themselves and to our supporters brave enough to let us in... VH1, the entire production team and myself thank you... you made this show!

Vh1 Money Hungry Phillip Funny Animated Pics

We’re used to seeing larger-than-life personalities on reality TV, but no one has quite fit that plus-size description as well as Money Hungry’s Phillip (one half of Team Flabulous). His drunken, rhythmic, neck-snapping, flamboyant and just plain buoyant showing in the show’s premiere is nothing short of a revelation. Make sure to tune in Monday at 9/8c to see if he’ll stick around (bringer your prayer books!), and for now, check out our salute to this early breakout in the best online tributary medium there is: the gif wall…

And yeah, you saw that right:

What an innovator!
