'I LOVE NEW YORK 2' FINAL 2 SPOILER.



FIND OUT WHO NEW YORK'S FINAL 2 CHOICES ARE AFTER THE JUMP! KEEP IN MIND THAT THSES ARE SPOILERS; THEREFORE, ONLY CLICK IF YOU'RE READY FOR THE OUTCOME. YOU CAN ALSO READ MY 2 CENTS ON WHY I THINK NEW YORK WILL ONCE AGAIN BE DUMPED AT THIS SEASON'S REUNION SHOW...OR BEFORE IT EVEN AIRS.


I don't want to post each and everything that occurred on tonight's episode of I Love New York 2, but after watching it, I am thoroughly convinced that Tiffany Pollard has got to be the most dramatic, heavy-make-up wearing, false-eyelashes having, half-past-crazy, wig-wearing creature on two legs. And because New York is so damn dramatic, extra and whatnot, it probably comes as no surprise (to some) that she chose to eliminate David a.k.a. Punk--a guy she couldn't find any flaws on--instead of Buddah; the same guy she said she couldn't trust; the same dude who straight up lied to Punk and Tailor Made about sleeping with New York; the same guy who lied to her about being a 'life coach' and a 'real estate developer' when everyone and their mama knew he was trying to add some credentials to his thespian resume.




Well one thing I can say about Budda is he is definitely actor material. He's done his homework. So much so that he repeated the same gaudy lines Tango had thrown at New York last season. I almost believed him when he told New York that he wasn't on the show so that he could further his acting career. He even went as far as to say that he wasn't there for the hype and the fame...because he already got that! He better stop playing! LOL! All of the back and forth bickering those two did in this episode was really reminiscent of the way New York fussed and cussed with Tango in the second to last episode of last season. Talk about deja vu!

You all will see what I mean when you watch tonight's episode at 9 pm on VH1.

So in the end, New York dumped a man who appeared to have been a really good guy over a man who will most likely dump her ass waaaaaaaaaay before the Reunion show is recorded. At first I felt bad for Punk. As he walked away after being booted from the show, he said that even though New York broke his heart, he was still in love with her. Hell, if you ask me, she did your Punk ass a favor. I'm thisclose to crushing on your ass! Dude, you have a law degree! I don't know how many folks will take you seriously (in the business world) once they find out that you once associated yourself with Tiffany 'New York' Pollard, but it's up to you to make that shit work for you in your favor.

And that's real talk too.

ESSENCE MAGAZINE'S TOP 10 CELEBRITY COUPLES OF 2007

Mary J. Blige & Kendu Isaacs
Her upcoming December release is full of happy songs, which means things between the R&B diva and her record producing husband of 4 years must be going well. When Blige was signed as a spokeswoman for Chevrolet, she took Isaacs and the step-kids along for the ride.



Eddie Murphy & Tracey Edmonds
This hot Hollywood couple hooked up after parting with their long-time spouses. After just 10 months of dating, the Shrek 3 star put a dazzling 8-carat Cartier rock on the TV producer's left hand, proving their rebound love affair was more than a fling.



Usher Raymond & Tameka Foster-Raymond
Tameka, a mother of three, was vilified in the media even before Usher presented her with an 11-carat engagement ring. Usher publicly defended his wife to-be and after a called off wedding in July, they married in August. The couple became the proud parents of a baby boy in November.


T.I. & Tiny
Their on-again, off again relationship has had many ups and downs, including a highly publicized miscarriage and the rapper's October arrest on gun charges. Through it all, the one-time songbird has stood by her allegedly felonious man.




Irv Gotti & Deborah Lorenzo
Gotti's Way, VH1s surprise hit show, introduced the couple to America and was picked up for a second season. Though separated for over a year, the Lorenzos continued attempts to make their unique marriage work proved riveting to millions of viewers.


MORE CELEB COUPLES AFTER THE JUMP!


Jay-Z & Beyonce
The couple is notoriously guarded about their 4-year relationship. Their you-can-ask-but-we-won't-tell stance has only made them more interesting. No matter where the songstress and rapper are-- even on a private yacht in the South of France�photographers and bloggers haunt their every move.


Kimora Lee Simmons & Djimon Hounsou
After parting ways (sort of) with her estranged, much older husband, fashion-mogul Simmons found a man somewhat closer to her own age. Actor/model Hounsou is tall, dark, chiseled and handsome, but he's also a romantic. Multiple pictures of the canoodling twosome have surfaced on the Internet.


Kanye West & Alexis Phifer
Since their sudden engagement in 2006, Phifer, a clothing designer, has been a constant at the rapper's side. The reserved ying to West's outspoken yang, Phifer earned high praises from Kanye's mother and held down her man during the matriarch�s untimely passing.



Janet Jackson & Jermaine Dupri
When the pop-icon�s beau-produced album tanked and Dupri left his lofty executive position at her label over the debacle, their relationship started to make sense to the masses. A ride or die boyfriend, Dupri took a job at a different label in February and then garnered a new deal for his sweetie of 4 years.


Honorable Mention: Kelis & Nas
Fans expected plenty of high profile antics after the eccentric singer and the poetic rapper wedded in 2005. But surprisingly there have been none. Rumors of their pending reality TV show were confirmed in March, but it's yet to be slotted for airtime.

IN TODAY'S 'THIS NIGGAH, HERE' EDITION: LIL WAYNE: 'TALK TO ME LIKE YOU TALK TO MARTIN.... '

Have you ever read something that someone had said that was so outrageous and unbelievable, it made you wanna just throw your hands up in frustration and yell out, 'This niggah, here!' Well, that's what I did while reading an excerpt from Lil Wayne's interview in XXL magazine.

Rapper Lil Wayne stunned a journalist when he demanded the writer treat him on a par with late civil rights campaigner Martin Luther King, Jr. The star - real name Dwayne Michael Carter Jr. - surprised an interviewer for XXL magazine when he likened himself to African American icons Martin Luther King Jr. and Malcolm X. Asked about the perception he's over-saturating the market with his music, Wayne responds, "Darling, I don't care what nobody think. Talk to me like you talk to Martin Luther King or Malcolm X. You're not going to ask him about what he thinks about what somebody said about him. You ask him about his greatness, and his greatness only. I don’t care what nobody think. If I did, you wouldn’t be sitting on my muthafuckin’ million-dollar bus in my 15th year at the same muthafuckin’ company and business.

I’m a role model. You should get like me. Get like you? No. Get like me. Ya understand me? I’m not hot. Hot dies out. Baby, I’m me. Who the fuck done this? Nobody. Compare me to people that’s not even living, baby. And they didn’t even do it—what they comparing me to. No disrespect to them. You found songs on those people after they died. I’m still living."

N!ggah, please.

MIKE VICK HIS 23 MONTH SENTENCE; 'I'M WILLING TO DEAL WITH THE CONSEQUENCES....'

Michael Vick was sentenced to 23 months in prison Monday for his role in a dogfighting conspiracy that involved gambling and killing pit bulls. The suspended Atlanta Falcons quarterback could have been sentenced up to five years by U.S. District Judge Henry E. Hudson. Vick, who turned himself in Nov. 19 in anticipation of his sentence, was wearing a black-and-white striped prison suit. After Vick apologized to the court and his family, Hudson told him: "You need to apologize to the millions of young people who looked up to you." "Yes, sir," Vick answered. Vick acknowledged he used "poor judgment" and added, "I'm willing to deal with the consequences and accept responsibility for my actions." Federal rules governing time off for good behavior could reduce Vick's prison stay by about three months, resulting in a summer 2009 release.

Before the hearing started, Michael Vick's brother, Marcus Vick, sat with his right arm around their mother, comforting her as she buried her head in her hands and wept.

Vick pleaded guilty in August, admitting he bankrolled the "Bad Newz Kennels" dogfighting operation and helped kill six to eight dogs. He has been held at a jail in Warsaw, Va., since he voluntarily began serving his sentence. In a plea agreement, he admitted bankrolling the dogfighting ring on his 15-acre property in rural southeastern Virginia and helping kill pit bulls that did not perform well in test fights. He also admitted providing money for bets on the fights but said he never shared in any winnings.

Falcons owner Arthur Blank called the sentencing "another step in his legal journey. This is a difficult day for Michael's family and for a lot of us, including many of our players and fans who have been emotionally invested in Michael over the years," Blank said. "We sincerely hope that Michael will use this time to continue to focus his efforts on making positive changes in his life, and we wish him well in that regard."

RUMOR OR REAL: DIDDY & CASSIE OFFICIALLY HOOK-UP?; BUT CASSIE SAYS THEY'RE JUST FRIENDS.

Well here's one more rumor (or is it real?) to motivate Kim Porter into bitching and whining about Diddy and his harem of females.

Hip-hop mogul Sean Combs has reportedly quit his womanizing ways to revive his relationship with ex-girlfriend Cassie. The 38-year-old star was rumored to have been dating the singer, 21, after he signed her to his Bad Boy record label last year (06), but the couple appear to be back together. A source tells New York Post gossip column PageSix that Combs has made the decision to "cut off the various girls he has around the world" and settle down with Cassie. Friends on both sides of the camp are whispering about their reunion. The insider adds, "She recently broke up with her boyfriend, and they're in Miami together now. They're holed up together in Miami, very low-key. He's really in love with her."

One question: When did she EVER become his girlfriend in the first place? Csssie told Allhiphop.com that she and Diddy are nothing more than friends...but on the other hand, she also said she is single and would definitely like to get in another relationship at some point.

CASSIE ON THOSE DIDDY RUMORS: They never will go away. [laughs] No I haven’t ever dated Diddy. I’m his artist, and we are actually friends. We really are friends. I am fortunate to have that connection with him, we just happened to have really hit it off as friends, but that’s it. It doesn’t bother me people think that or say that we are dating as people are going to say it regardless if I am bothered or not right? [laughs] These are my friends. I’m not going to stop hanging around someone or stop being friends with someone because people are making up things you know? It used to bother me a lot more but now I am like “whatever.”

CASSIE ON BEING SINGLE. I’m single. I’ve been single for a really long time and in a way it helped me kind of find myself. I was in a three-year relationship in High School. Until I moved to New York, I was with him. I definitely want to get into a relationship again at some point. It’s just hard with scheduling and things like that.

VIVICA SENTENCED TO 3 YEARS PROBATION ON DUI CHARGES; EXPLAINS 'GHETTO LOVE' W/50 CENT.

Vivica A. Fox joined an expanding list of celebrities who have entered a plea deal to settle a drunken driving case. The 43-year-old actress pleaded no contest to a misdemeanor count of driving with a blood-alcohol level over the legal limit, according to a city attorney’s spokesman. The former Dancing With the Stars contestant was sentenced to three years probation and ordered to a 90-day alcohol education program in addition to a $390 fine. As part of the plea deal, prosecutors dropped a charge of misdemeanor driving under the influence, which carries a maximum penalty of six months in jail. A no contest plea is not an admission of guilt but means the defendant will not fight the charges.

Fox was stopped in March in the San Fernando Valley after her 2007 Cadillac Escalade passed a California Highway Patrol car, according to a CHP report. She failed a series of sobriety tests, the report said. Fox said later that she regretted the incident.

In related news, did you all know that Vivica's 2003 split from short-term lover 50 Cent taught the actress so many valuable lessons, she was inspired to get a tattoo of the name of the song which helped her through her heartbreak? After the 41-year-old beauty spent hours listening to India.Arie's Strength, Courage and Wisdom, she decided to have the words permanently displayed on her body in a bid to avoid suffering such emotional pain again.

AFTER THE JUMP, FIND OUT WHY VIVICA CONSIDERED HER RELATIONSHIP WITH 50 CENT AS 'GHETTO LOVE.'

Fox says she was left shell-shocked when the rapper publicly accused her of using their relationship in a bid to boost her public and industry profile. "He was like, 'She's exploiting me, she's trying to use me to get publicity.' But, you know, I just considered that ghetto love. It was his way of dealing with the break-up. After my break-up with 50 Cent, that was a song I listened to almost every day because I needed strength, courage, and wisdom to never let that happen to me again."

NEW PICS: ASHANTI'S LITTLE SISTER SHI-SHI CLUBBING IN NYC.

Imagine opening your email inbox and seeing this portrayal of utter, random madness! I'm convinced that Kay Dee (one of my daily readers of RealGossip from the jump and the person who sent me these pics) really doesn't like me! LOL! Anyway, the female in the photos below is none other than Ashanti's little sister, 18-year-old Shi-Shi, clubbing last Friday at the Fall Fresh Full Frontal Fashion Freakum Dress & De at Mars 2112 in New York City. Sh!t like this don't make no damn sense. She's a beautiful girl and whatnot, but trying to wear a shirt as a dress when you have thighs that look like they once belonged to the late Nell Carter (God bless the dead) just isn't the business. It just ain't. And I really and truly believe that this is Shi-Shi's cry for attention, affection and any other maternal component she feels she may be lacking due to her mother's head staying constantly all up and through Ashanti's ass so much that if Ashanti turned the corner, she'd snapped her mother's neck in two.

Just ask Solange.

FIRST LADY (OF T&C) LISARAYE LOVES THE LIL GIRLS! HOW MUCH? SHE SACRIFICED HER WEAVE/EXTENSIONS + RUMORS OF HER PISSING OFF FELLOW ISLANDERS.

Talk about dressing down! I never thought I'd see the day when LisaRaye, who has liken herself as an urban version of Grace Kelly, would ditch her hair extensions and always expertly-applied make-up to make a public appearance.

Turks and Caicos' First Lady/Hollywood actress LisaRaye McCoy-Misick, recently took time out of her busy schedule to pay a visit to a group of special young ladies, becoming the latest celebrity to lend her support for the 'It's Cool to Be Smart' mentoring program for girls. During the November 6th stop at Houston's W.S. Holland Middle School, the former star of the CW's All Of Us, discussed her Lady Raye Foundation, which produces beauty pageants and other programs to help enhance the self-esteem and self-worth of disadvantaged teens. In addition, the star, who is also the founder of her own exquisite stone line called RayeDiant Jewels, fielded questions from several excited students, offering words of encouragement that were greatly appreciated by all.

Mmm-hmm....


Anyway, in related news, LisaRaye has moved up three slots on the native's Top 10 Shit list...which is a feat in itself when you consider the fact that she has held down the number one spot ever since she first stepped foot onto the island over two years ago. And according to Yardflex.com, her husband, the Honorable Dr. Michael Misick, Chief Minister of the Turks and Caicos Islands, isn't too far behind. Allegedly, the native's discontent stems from Misick's lack of total dedication to the people of his country. Whispers of the Chief dedicating the majority of his time in Hollywood attending red carpet, celebrity-attended events unrelated to Turks & Caicos alongside his wife as well as implementing the country's tax money to fund he and (mainly) his wife's luxurious lifestyle has the Islanders pissed off to the highest level of pisstivity.

As if that wasn't bad enough, another issue that has the West Indies natives spazzing out of control towards their Chief is the amount of 'Halle Berry-type money' he allegedly pays LisaRaye to appear in print advertisements (i.e. Departure magazine) to promote the Island in order to attract tourist visits and business.

Also, two months ago, I made a blog post regarding LisaRaye's new Lifetime reality show, The Premier & I, which was supposed to chronicle the fish-out-of-water aspect of the actress's daily life as she adapts to life and her new role as the First Lady of Turks & Caicos Islands. The show, which was supposed to start filming in November has been canceled, according to Yardflex.com

NEW MAG SCANS: ALICIA KEYS IN GIANT MAGAZINE (DECEMBER '07/JANUARY '08 ISSUE)

ALICIA ON HOW SHE STAYS UNDER THE PAPARAZZI'S RADAR: "I guess the way I roll is really low key. I guess it is pretty amazing. I was looking at a magazine earlier and thinking, 'How is it that two people are on a boat in the middle of the ocean and there's a picture of them there?' Like, seriously, how does somebody know you're gonna be on a boat in the middle of the ocean? That's crazy!"

ALICIA ON BEING BRAVE & FORTHRIGHT IN HER REAL-LIFE RELATIONSHIPS: "I tend to be a bit secretive. I'll wait and see what someone else feels or says, especially when I'm in a relationship 'cause I can usually read people. It's my nature to let them show me who they are first before I show them who I am. But once I'm in love with somebody, I'm the best girlfriend you could ever have."

ALICIA ON HER RUMORED RELATIONSHIP WITH KERRY 'KRUCIAL KEYS' BROTHERS: "That's what they've been saying for a little while now, but I don't usually address that question. Oprah told me never to tell--and I can't disobey Oprah!...I definitely found my partner. I know he is somebody who will always be special to me and that we're always going to be in each other's lives."

MAG SCANS: DEELISHIS IN SMOOTH MAGAZINE'S HOLIDAY ISSUE

A expertly photoshopped, honey-blonde-haired, keloid and cellulite-free version of Flavor of Love 2 winner, Deelishis (real name London Charles) graces the cover of Smooth magazine's 2007 Holiday Special Edition (on stands now). I posted a few mag excerpts below. However, one particular excerpt caught my eye and I damn near lost it once I finished reading it. I told yall before that it takes a lot to leave me speechless. Consider this one of those times.

SMOOTH MAGAZINE: Do you consider yourself a celebrity?
DEELISHIS: Yeah, most definitely! You ask people from Canada to Detroit to Bumf-ck, Georgia, and they all know who Deelishis is. To have random people come up to you and say they love you and ask for autographs, I can’t help but feel like a celebrity. I embrace it because it’s the smart thing to do. I can make more things happen with my celebrity status.

SMOOTH MAGAZINE: But there must also be some negatives to fame.
DEELISHIS: That’s very true. Your life is now out there to be picked apart, judged, and fabricated. People will make up stuff just to have something to talk about. Everyone has the right to an opinion. It’s just the lies that I can’t stand. I just heard the other day that I’m stripping now! Let me tell you something: I don’t even have the courage to strip. And if I tried to, I would be very bad at it!

PARDON ME WHILE I PROCEED TO F.T.F.O. (FALL THE F*CK OUT!), PLEASE AND THANK YOU KINDLY!






FYI: DON'T BE SURPRISED IF YOU HAPPEN TO SEE COPY/PASTE VERSIONS OF THE MAG EXCERPTS POSTED IN THIS BLOG POST AND/OR THE SAME TAGGED PICS POSTED ON REALGOSSIP 101 AS WELL AS CUTIE CENTRAL (OR ANY OTHER BLOG/WEBSITE) MAKE THEIR WAY ONTO MEDIATAKEOUT.COM'S WEBSITE WITH OUR TAGS COVERED WITH THEIR LOGO AND NO MENTION OF WHERE THEY CAME FROM. MEDIATAKEOUT.COM IS JUST GRIMY & SHEISTY LIKE THAT. TRUST. JUST ASK MY FOLKS OVER THERE ON BOSSIP.COM

ANYHOO, CHECK OUT THE NSFW (Not Safe For Work) MAG SCANS OF DEELISHIS AND MORE MAG EXCERPTS AFTER THE JUMP!



Below you'll find several more mind-reeling excerpts from her interview. And let me warn you all right now that she had no problem expressing her sexual self in this candid interview. Ol (nasty) girl dished on a multitude of personal and intimate confessions. Everything from being a squirter, to licking a man's ass (a.k.a. tossing his salad) to her feelings for Flav as well as the impending launch of her burgeoning music and acting career (she makes her film debut as Funkmaster Flex's baby's mama in Wendy Williams new biopic Queen of Media).

SMOOTH MAGAZINE: What does it take to please you in the bedroom?
DEELISHIS: A man has to be a good kisser. Wherever you are kissing me on my body, you gotta do it with some sincerity. You definitely have to taste the appetizer before you have the main course. So I’m looking for you to go down before anything else happens.

SMOOTH MAGAZINE: Is that a rule?
DEELISHIS:Hell yes! I need a man who’s on some grown sh*t if he’s going to have sex with me. I don’t want a man who’s afraid to let me touch his ass. A lot of guys get real homophobic if women go anywhere near their asses. Don’t let society tell you what’s taboo. If I toss your salad, that doesn’t mean you’re gay. That’s a heterosexual act. Men and women have been doing that to each other for years. I just need a man who’s going to be grown about it.

SMOOTH MAGAZINE: What’s the craziest thing you’ve done in the bedroom?
DEELISHIS: I licked a man’s ass. He was pretending that he wasn’t going to like it, but he did. He kinda made a funny noise when i did it, too.


SMOOTH MAGAZINE: Are there any special talents you have in the bedroom?
DEELISHIS: Oh yes! I’m a squirter, which makes sex that much better. When I first get with a person, I don’t tell him about it. I like it to be a surprise.

SMOOTH MAGAZINE: What’s your favorite position?
DEELISHIS: I have two. I like to be on my back because I like it when the man is in charge, but only when I’ve decided it’s okay for him to be in charge. When I want to be in charge, I like to be on top. I like to see the look in his eyes when he’s about to explode. That’s when I like to put all my weight down on him. Then I ask him to bite my nipples really hard when he’s reached his peak. It’s a feeling of dominance that I love.

SMOOTH MAGAZINE: Tell us about your music.
DEELISHIS: I'm trying to take this opportunity to do all the things that I've always wanted to pursue. I've always wanted to sing, and now I've got this single out called Rump Shaker It's a hot and up-tempo joint. We did a music video for it, too. Everyone can check it out on my Myspace page. There's a lot of rump-shaking in it, so I hope everyone is ready for it. Put the kids to bed before you see the video. The whole idea of Rump Shaker was to have fun. It was something to throw back to the fans for the sake of my being known for my derriere. I've had that thing on my backside for 27 years now, so let's enjoy it! The album is titled Simply Deelishis, and it's going to be the most delightful desert you've had in a long time.

SMOOTH MAGAZINE: Tell us about the movie you did.
DEELISHIS: It's called Queen of Media. It's a movie based on Wendy Williams' life. People love to hate Wendy, but this film gives you some insight into what her life is really like. Robin Givens played Wendy, and I played Funkmaster Flex's baby-mama. But it wasn't the typical baby-mama role. It was touching and honest.

DEELISHIS ON LIFE WITHOUT FLAVOR FLAV: I found out on the day of the Comedy Central Roast of Flavor Flav that they were going to do a Flavor of Love 3. I understood that the show was Flav's mealticket. He was more famous than ever before because of the show, and you can't have Flavor of Love 3 when you're still dating the girl from Flavor of Love 2. So he had a choice to make, but I think it was a choice that was more for him and not for us. I love Flav, but the respect I had for him has changed. It didn't have to go down like that. I would have respected him more if he would have come to me and told me exactly why we couldn't be together. This is the same man who told me he loved me when the cameras were off! Plus, his baby-mama approached me at the roast. I thought we were going to come to blows. But it's all good. I wish him the best. I really do. But there will be no friendship between us.
