VH1 LOOKING FOR 20 BLACK WOMEN TO CAST IN THEIR NEWEST REALITY SHOW, 'INTERRACIAL LOVE.'


I received the following article (via BlackAmericaWeb.com) from Alicia at Reality Life magazine regarding a new reality show titled, Interracial Love that will air on VH1 this fall. Some of you may have already heard of it by now...for those who haven't or are interested in becoming a potential contestant/cast mate, peep the info below.

VH1 has reportedly given a green-light to Interracial Love, a reality show about a white male looking to find an African American girlfriend. Writer "Lynn" of VH1realityworld.com says the show will start casting in June for a fall 2008 premiere. The series will follow Tobias White (shown in the middle of the photo above) and his two bi-racial sons 14-year old Marcus (shown on the far left in the photo above) and 15-year-old Zachary (shown on the far right in the photo above) as they look to add a wife and mother to the family. In an interview with Lynn last July, White explained his preference for black women. "I’m a white male and I’ve always dated only black women. I just always have," he said. "It’s not that I’m prejudiced against my own race, but it just seemed a better fit for me. And now I have two children that are bi-racial. I’ve seen so many shows like the Bachelor and now Age of Love, The Rock of Love and Joe Millionaire. They always have 19 or 20 white women on the show and they’ll have one black woman. It’s almost like it was set up for the black woman to get voted off.

"To me, with the mother of my kids being black, I think it’s a disrespectful thing. And I was just thinking one day about a year ago that this would be a good reality show. Me and my sons want a good woman in our lives, and who better to help me find my Queen, than my sons? Who knows me better than my sons?"

ANYONE INTERESTED? IF SO, CHECK OUT THE CASTING INFORMATION AFTER THE JUMP!

NEW PICS: TOCCARA JONES PHOTOSPREAD IN KING MAGAZINE

Former America's Next Top Model contestant and returning Celebrity Fit Club (VH1) castmate, Toccara Jones shows off the fruits of her workout labor in the May 2008 issue of King magazine. Some guys (and even some girls) may agree that judging by the plus-size model's photospread, she gives the phrase “How Do Ya Like Them Apples?” a new meaning. In her feature cover story, Jones plugs her soon-to-be released fitness DVD, Toccara's Fabulous Workout for 'real-size women,' she says. 'It's going to include a 30-minute workout, a 10-minute arm workout, a 10-minute leg workout and a 10-minute ab workout, so it'll be a full hour. With other workout DVDs, 15 minutes in, you're huffing and puffing and can't get through it. Fitness people make fitness DVDs; it's too intense. I don't think they take into consideration a real person is working out to their DVD. Mine will be challenging, but you'll be able to finish it with a sense of accomplishment. And that does something for your self-esteem. People see me on television and say, 'Oh, Toccara needs to lose some weight,' or 'Toccara is too big.' They put me in this little box, and when they see me in person, they realize that I'm not that big, or they say I lost weight. My main think is just to be healthy, to love who you are. So I figured if I did this workout DVD, it could help people. It's not necessarily about being a certain size. It's about being healthy and loving the skin that you're in.'

Tune in to VH1 to watch Celebrity Fit Club (which also stars Queen of Comedy comedian Sommore) Thursday nights at 9 p.m. on Vh1. Until then, check out the 40-36-40 diva in all of her fruity glory below.

And in true Toccara fashion, the 25-year-old brick house who still wears a G-cup-size bra, has no problem at all tooting her own horn when it comes to talking about her buxom body. 'You know, my body has always been fabulous, but since America's Next Top Model, it has gotten sexier, more toned and voluptuous. The weight loss (from her current stint of Celebrity Fit Club) just makes my breasts fit better in my bras. I don't have the double-dip, like when you wear your bra and have that overage. They just fit perfectly. Man, I'm just a bad, big chick. All my body parts are fabulous; there's no need to pick out or focus on any particular one. All the big girls of the world, it's all good to be thick and fab. Let's take over the world.'
