'FLAVOR OF LOVE 2' WINNER LONDON 'DEELISHIS' CHARLES IS GETTING MARRIED TO BOYFRIEND ORLANDO GORDON.

CLICK ON EACH PIC TO SEE ITS FULL IMAGE.

Flavor of Love 2 winner Deelishis (real name London Charles) is now engaged to be married. The reality star turned entrepreneur (she owns her own jean line) will join her boyfriend, 27-year-old Orlando Gordon in holy matrimony on July 19, 2009, according to Sister 2 Sister magazine.

DEELISHIS ON HER PROPOSAL: "He and I were sitting around the house watching movies. Around 5, I went into the kitchen to grab something to eat and I came back in the bedroom and he was sitting there with this little box and he said, 'What are you doing for the rest of your life?' I was very shocked and surprised."

Deelishis said she and her hubby-to-be thought about eloping to avoid any media attention....what sort of media attention is beyond me....but instead decided to celebrate their union with their family and friends...and soon began making plans for a very large bridal party that will consist of 35 members including 15 bridesmaids and groomsmen. Of her engagement party, which was held at Orlando's nightclub (he also handled all the arrangements...food, decorations, music, etc. by his lonesome), Deelishis said:

"He had these flowers that were everywhere, and these vases had these orchids and roses and lilies. It was beautiful. For most of the party I was in tears. I just cried because I couldn't believe how beautiful it was. Then I just kept staring at this man, who, I knew we would have a long-lasting relationship but I never thought he would fall into suit of feeling as though he needed to make me his bride."

Mrs. Orlando Gordon's bridesmaids include SWV member Taj Johnson, former Flavor of Love 2 contestant Shay 'Buckeey' Johnson, model Toccara Jones, video vixen Angel Lola Luv plus Deelishis' two sisters and relatives from Orlando's side of the family. Orlando's 3-year old daughter, Orlandria....yes, Orlandria, has been given the title as flower girl, while Deelishis' 9-year-old daughter, Jasmine, will play her role as a junior bridesmaid. Deelishis said in choosing the members of her bridal party....particularly her bridesmaids, she wanted ladies 'who respect what marriage is, who respects my decision, who aren't going to be catty and who will keep this union tight.'

As for Flavor Flav. Who? And as for those wedding photos? Given Deelishis' addiction to and adoration of anyone's camera lens, chances are this time next year (that's if the wedding goes off without a hitch) there will be a plethora of images from her big day. Congratulations, Dee!

Tito, yes Tito Jackson, is seen here with two of his three sons as they film footage for an upcoming reality show. Tito and his sons can be seen strolling through what looks like a desert while having what appears to be a father/son heart-to-heart talk...all while being followed by an annoying film crew.

Actor Blair Underwood is shown below with his wife Desiree (at Time for Heroes celebrity carnival to benefit The Elizabeth Glaser Pediatic Aids Foundation--first pic--and in the June 2008 issue of Essence magazine--second pic) Blair says he loves being a father to their three kids: sons Paris, 11, Blake, 7, and daughter Brielle, 9. Underwood revealed to Essence: “I was there with my wife Desiree when each of our children was born, and although I know it’s humanly impossible to be there every second of every day, it’s a joy to watch as their personalities blossom. The greatest reward is when the lessons, thoughts and ideas you’ve tried to teach them begin to connect. They’re constantly evolving, and I love every minute of being their father. Their grandmother, my mother, used to always say, ’Don’t let anybody shake your tree.’ When you know who you are, nobody can take you off your game, and I want to empower my kids with a sense of self so that they know who they are-in their heritage, their culture, as human beings and as children of God. It’s important to me that they carry themselves with boldness and humility. They are my legacy.”

Wesley Snipes is pictured in the third pic with three of his five children as he teaches them how to cross the street? The hell if I know. My head is hurting at the thought of breaking down the numbher of kids he has with the number of women...or something like that. I'll get to him later.

Comedian/actor-radio host Steve Harvey is pictured with his blended family (from left to right) Jason, 16, Lori, 11, twins Brandi and Karli, 25, Steve 17, Wynton, 10, and Morgan, 21. Now, that's what you call a blended family!

“When my wife Marjorie and I got married, she had three children and I had four [the couple will celebrate their first anniversary this month]. The union of our family has been the greatest thing ever to happen to me. The kids all call me Dad. I tell my boys not to play rough with their younger sister. I try to teach them what I know already: "You’re never going to win an argument with a girl, so just let her have what she wants!” Being a parent has shown me that I’m a little bit softer than I thought I was. While my younger kids get away with far less than their older siblings because I’ve seen it all before, they all come talk to me because they know I won’t judge them.”

--Steve Harvey to Essence magazine (June 2008 issue) on how his newly blended family has been the greatest thing to ever happen to him.

Al B. Sure, former member of the mid to late 80s All-Beige Boys Club is pictured below with three of his four children, if I'm not mistaken, at two different events. Although Al and Quincy's brother Lil B. Sure were ghost at Quincy's 16th Stunting Like My Daddy (Diddy)-themed birthday party, Quincy made sure to be in attendance to watch his Pops celebrate his 40th birthday at R&B Live Hollywood earlier this month. The cutie you see pictured with Al is his daughter (who turns 16-years old next month) daughter Paige Hurd. If she looks familiar to you that's because she's also an actress best known for her role as Queen Latifah's daughter in Beauty Shop. She also plays the on-again/off-again love interest of Chris Rock's character in the CW's Everybody Hates Chris. The picture you see below is from MTV's Rock the Cradle where both Paige and Quincy attended to support their brother as he and his BFF, Landon Brown, were booted from the show.

And here's a little unknown fact some of you all didn't know: Al, who co-wrote Jodeci's early 90s hit-song Forever My Lady, says the inspiration for the song came from his girlfriend at the time: KIM PORTER, who was pregnant with their son Quincy, who was named after Al's mentor, Quincy Jones. Now, ain't that something? I read that in a January '08 issue of Jet magazine. Al also has a younger son named Devin (click here). Now, that I think about it, I'll have to do more research on Paige because he never mentioned the fact that he has a daughter.

NEW SITCOM STAR FLAVOR FLAV SAYS HE HOPES TO BECOME THE NEXT EDDIE MURPHY.

I swear sometimes the stuff some people say boggles my mind tenfold. Flavor Flav, former hype-man-turned-sitcom-"actor" says he's hoping and praying his new sitcom will turn him into--now, get this--the next Eddie Murphy. For reasons still unknown, someone apparently felt Flav could carry the lead role in a new show, aptly titled, Under One Roof (which also stars former One on One co-star Kelly Perrine) which revolves around a convict (Flav) attempting to turn his life around. Well, I guess that can't be too hard to do considering his background....Anyhoo, Flav claims his former classmate Murphy is his acting inspiration. He says, "Eddie was in my ninth grade English class at Roosevelt Junior-Senior High School. Today he is one of the most successful actors and I'm very proud of my boy."

Flav also claims he has slipped into his Under One Roof role easily - because his bad boy character echoes his own early life. He adds, "It relates to my life a lot because, back in the days before I became Public Enemy, I was always in and out of jail, getting in trouble."

SPOILER: FLAV BOOTS USHER'S NUMBER ONE FAN FROM 'FLAVOR OF LOVE 3' SHOW; REJECT TALKS SMACK ABOUT USHER'S OLD LADY.

What does Usher and the undeniably ugly-ass Flavor Flav have in common? One attention-starved, celebrity-STANing so-called 'fan.' So, I wasn't surprised one iota when Flav eliminated her instead of Bunz in this week's episode. The expression(s) on her face when Flav pulled out the pictures of her and Usher from her myspace page was absolutely priceless and LOL funny. Funny how she didn't seem to have a problem telling him that she was once on Fear Factor and has met several celebrities through her relatives who work in the entertainment industry, but when it came down to admitting to the fact that she had also appeared on Oprah to meet her favorite celebrity, she got the tightmouth. She had to be insane in the membrane to think Flav would never find out. How are you going to go from being Usher's biggest fan (even if it was four years ago) to wanting to be on the arm and all up in the face of Flavor Flav's old ass? That is not the business, boo. Girl, you played yourself big time. I hope I didn't spoil all the drama for you all! *snicker* Catch the episode when it runs again tonight at 9 pm on VH1.

I don't watch the third season of Flavor of Love as much as I did the first two, but once I saw Bee-Ex, then heard her mention she has met-and in some cases-made friends with various celebrities, I took a closer look. And when I did, I realized I had seen her before...on TV...with another celeb. The year: 2004. The place: The Oprah Winfrey Show. The topic: 'Oprah Making Dreams Come True.' or something like that. Long story short: I find out my best friend, Kamika, biggest crush will be making an appearance on Oprah. Being the friend that I am, I record (I still have it on a VHS tape...but don't tell nobody) it for her. We watch it together. She's a bit bitter because it should've been her (and I agree) and I'm just a bit speechless because this Bee-Ex chick couldn't even attempt to even try to hold a candle to my friend in the looks department. Trust and believe that. Anyhoo, come to find out, Bee-Ex's best friend wrote to Oprah to tell her Bee-Ex is Usher's number one fan and would love to meet him. Oprah sets up a surprise meeting. Usher takes Bee-Ex and her best friend bowling where she takes full advantage of getting as close to him as she can (peep the pictures--click on them to see their full image). He then gives them VIP access to his concert that night in Chicago.

And although Usher and his number one fan look as cozy as two lovable lovebirds in a deluxe net atop a big old oak tree on a beautiful Spring day, I don't think there was anything more to it. Usher and Chilli had just broken up (he moaned and groaned to Oprah about during his interview) a few months earlier and he hadn't began dating again to my knowledge. Considering he appeared on Oprah wearing a red cap and sweater looking like an urban version of Curious George lets me know that at the time Tameka was still employed as his wardrobe stylist. Needless to say, that's also the reason you don't see Usher wearing a wedding ring on his finger. However, Ms. Bee-Ex must be still seeking her 15 minutes of fame. According to Sandra Rose, the aspiring model took it upon herself to speak ill of Usher's old lady during an appearance on the Miss Jones show.

NEW CANDIDS: FLAVOR FLAV OUT & ABOUT IN BEVERLY HILLS & NYC

The one and only Flavor Flav was spotted strolling around Beverly Hills on Friday wearing one of his many signature clocks around his puny neck.

=================================================

And here he is in New York City looking as if his despicably ugly ass should be caught in some petite grizzly bear trap while hanging out with Snoop Dogg outside of MTV's TRL studios in Times Square on February 25, 2008. Is he trying to make PETA's day or what?
