She Is Rocky, Hear Her Roar
Straight-up: I Know My Kid’s a Star breakout Rocky gave this blog one of the best interviews it has ever heard. It was so good that the written word could not do it justice. You simply have to hear Rocky to believe her.
So, we’ve extracted the best 10 minutes of our hour-plus chat with Rocky, split them into two parts and added a slide show to go along with the discussion. Among the topics covered are: her daughter Hayley (of course), her breakdown in the closet, the hair-weave accusations, visible tampon strings, Miley Cyrus’ stripper tendencies, her b-movie career as Melissa Brasselle and her new single, “Who’s the Bitch Now?” Wait until you hear what it’s about.
(On that note, a word of warning: the language in these interviews, particularly in the second part, could be considered NSFW.)
Keep up with Rocky via her MySpace.

i feel like i don’t even wanna watch the show without Rocky. I was just starting to get into it too and now it’s gonna be just a dumb reality show with a bunch of !~_!@^ ed overbearing mom’s. Rocky you put the Rock in your name!
April 20th, 2008 at 11:32 pm
I love Rocky and Hailey!!!! Why oh why did you send them home? Now the only reason to watch is to see if someone finally beats gigis butt to the ground. Rocky was real, she obviously loved her daughter, shes tough and smart. I think Danny and company missed the boat on this one! Most of th other parents are tellling their kids things like ” if you cant do it perfect, lets just leave” or gigis telling her daughter : they will crucify you” what?? Is that how you encourage your child? And it was no ones business if Rocky had weaves or not, I mean seriously, was does that have to do with the whole concept?? I only wish VHI will find another venue for Rocky- please, guys, do your magic and find a show with Rocky- I will also nominate myself for the show, because I GET her. I am starting a “Rocky Fan Club” and I am the president! Im just as crazy as she is, but like her, crazy-good. I am her number ONE fan!!!!! Rocky, you rock,so does your daughter. If you would like to join the Fan Club, please email me- jill.gordon51@yahoo.com

Rocky-
I wanted to tell you how much i enjoyed watching you on the show. I am a mother of 11 children and your passion for your daughter is the same passion i feel for each and every one of mine. People dont understand mothers like us who would die for our children…. they are gifts from God and they are the most precious things we can ever experience.
But i wanted to tell you that i think you are a remarkable woman. Im so proud of you for being able to put up with all the crap that the women in the house gave you. I think gigi acted like an idiot and the way she acted in front of her child was so sad.
You are definatly a one of a kind woman but you know thats what makes you special and unique. Screw everyone who doesnt like it. You keep being true to yourself and your sweet daughter and let life take you where it may. God bless you!

Rocky, you ROCK! I have 3 kids & my oldest is also trying to break into the biz and working super hard at it. I don’t think that I can give you any advice, you are doing an AWESOME job, you are REAL and I am pretty much the same w/my 3 kids. They deserve to know WHO their parents are and not an uptight dumb !## who is pretending to be something that they are not. I liked watching the show with you in it much more than with you off of the show, no doubt, but at this point I am rooting for Cheyenne sp? since you guys are no longer on the show-which is a total bummer. As for DB taking you off of the show, personally, I think that he had to do it, there was way TOO much chemistry there between you two, I am sure I am not the only one who saw it! You would always be welcome in my home! Take care, much luv CALIGIRL…It’s like OMG!
April 21st, 2008 at 4:24 pm
Hi Rocky, I love you, that was the funniest thing I have heard in a while. I love the fact that you are willing to discuss anything and the truth behind things. I was a child/teenage model for five years. Have you thought about modeling for Haley? She is beautiful. I think she would do well. She has the perfect look for print. Even on camera, wonderful, but for me I couldn’t remember lines, I was a horrible actress. All of my friends were actresses. I decided to model so I wouldn’t have to remember lines! Worked well! I think the both of you are the best. Haley is so very lucky to have you! I can’t wait to see Haley become “rich and famous”! Take care and much love!
April 21st, 2008 at 8:11 pm
Ok - now everybody say a little prayer for her poor daughter.
April 21st, 2008 at 9:45 pm
Honestly!! I wish all the blessings in the world to the children who are on the show, but the show sucks!! Not saying there isn’t any talent, the show just simply sucks!! The ONLY reason I watched the show was to see Rocky and her daughter Hayley. Her daughter might not have ALL that applies to be a “kid star”, but there is definitely something special about that young lady!! You can see her strength and potential at such a young age, and that’s without the “professional” training! Danny, you should have know better, if you know the business at all! Vh1 wasted money!! Shouldn’t have gotten rid of Rocky and Hayley!!
Long live Rocky and Hayley!!!
April 22nd, 2008 at 2:45 pm
I think Danny should have kept Rocky and Hayley. They were the reason I watched that show. Hayley wasn’t exactly the best actress was she was sweet and gorgeous and does have lots of potential. Sometimes Hayley was uptight and nervous and I can understand that she was feeling pressured to memorize lines and didn’t want to mess up. GiGi and Alli were the ones that should have been eliminated. GiGi acts like a jealous spiteful witch I’m sorry to say and she thinks her and her daughter are better. As a result of all that tension, Rocky lost it. I had to laugh at that scene where Rocky was complaining about losing sleep, hating on all the other mothers because they all thought they were better, wanting to shake the gumball machine and grabbing a hanger and wanting to kill a cast member. It wasn’t funny but it was. I understand how she felt and my temper is exactly like Rocky’s when people treat me like that. I was really mad when Danny said the whole thing was all about Rocky. That was so not true. Rocky was pushing Hayley to do her best and to show people that her daughter was a star.
Rocky, I love you very much(you too Hayley) and I’m glad you and Hayley made an appearance on the show, eventhough you guys didn’t make it. I started to get the impression that all the good people would get overlooked and eliminated when Devin and Kevin were eliminated. Turns out I was right. Oh well, you, Hayley, Devin and Kevin didn’t need those snobs anyway. And I know you try hard to be a good mother and you’re doing a great job of it. Who cares what those other witches think? That’s why my mom never got me involved in anything like that eventhough people tried to talk her into it. Everyone thought I would make a good model and actress. My mom didn’t want to ruin me and have to deal with snotty mothers and fancy kids. And I can’t say I blame her. I wish you and Hayley the best of luck whether or not she makes it as a actress. I love you Rocky and Hayley.
LOVE, Lindsey

ROCKY WAS THE BEST ON THIS SHOW NOT WORTH WATCHING WITHOUT HER …. IF BRETT AND AMBRE DONT WORK OUT ROCKY SHOULD GIVE THAT SHOW A TRY FOR SEASON 3
April 22nd, 2008 at 3:48 pm
The poster that made this comment:
“Almost all of these comments are made by Rocky and/or her friends. There is no way that any SANE individual would think for one moment that this lady is normal.”
has her head in the sand.
It may be hard for her to believe since she apparently knows Rocky personally and has some personal beef with her, but this mother-daughter-duo has LEGIONS of fans in the VH1-universe.
The only difference between Rocky and every other mother in America is that Rocky didn’t try and pretend to be a perfect, angelic person just because cameras were on her. She was REAL and was brave enough to show the REALITY of what people actually say to each other behind closed doors and what really goes on in households across the country. Most of us don’t model ourselves after the Brady Bunch.
This positive post about Rocky is not from one of her old friends. I don’t know her and was actually rooting for Shannon & Mckenzie because they are from Baton Rouge like me. But Rocky and Hayley totally won me over! (It is almost impossible for me to think or type “Hayley” without “Lourdes” behind it, thanks Recap Guy! lol )
Hayley is strikingly beautiful and Rocky seriously needs her own show. I would LOVE to see her as a commentator on Best Week Ever or something like that because her “Rocky-isms” are a scream! VH1 - don’t let her get away!!!
April 22nd, 2008 at 5:56 pm
Danny was right! It was (and STILL is), all about Rocky! Personally, poor Hailey seemed to be constantly cringing! She was great when her mother wasn’t there! I feel Rocky blatently cheated her daughter out of any chance in the competitiion by her self-absorbed, arrogant antics. Odd to me, that Rocky mentions that she has record coming-out. Shouldn’t she be mentioning something Hailey is doing? Once again, it’s ALL about rocky (a crude “hack”). I can only hope, the only person who buys her record, turns out to be her! (and I know she will).
April 22nd, 2008 at 11:03 pm
Without Rocky and Hayley this show would be boring to watch. Rocky took risks…what mother wouldn’t? Rocky–you have a beautiful child, Hayley, and I believe that the best is yet to come!!
April 23rd, 2008 at 2:12 am
I have watched the show from day one, and I belive in Haley. Maybe Rocky was pushing it to much, but she did try and tone it down for her daughters sake. I do believe that Haley has the “IT” factor for Hollywood. Give Haley another chance , you were given plenty of chances Bonaduce.
April 23rd, 2008 at 6:19 pm
WOW-It is all about Rocky!
April 23rd, 2008 at 11:42 pm
Hey Rocky…just wanted to drop in on ya and tell ya YOU !@+` IN ROCK BABY!
Oh and how ya doin…? 
Sure do hope they get some show for you on Vh1 or somewhere on cable damn it….want me some Itrrrralian New Yawkaaa on the airwaves! Have a great week doll. (oh and um haven’t watched that show since you ladies left!). Funny thing is, I met Danny when he was like 14 (i was 13) back in Jersey at the Steel Pier (pre-casino’s)and uh he wasn’t all that in control as a kid actor…lol. Ahhh the journey is sweet though. Gotta love it.
Rock on sista!

Hayley was bad.. really really bad. She could work for a photoshoot, but way too dumb to act. Rocky made the show almost unwatchable. If I want to see a crackhead I will watch flavor of love.
May 2nd, 2008 at 10:55 pm
Rocky,
I would love it if you and Haley got your own show. To anyone who reads this, I don’t know Rocky or her daughter but i enjoyed them both on the show. Haley is a beautiful child with natural talent. Rocky is a very attractive woman also. I know what you go through rocky. I don’t know how many times people say bad things about me or my daughter. People are sooo jealous when a mom and daughter are not only beautiful but stron willed. In some ways I am glad you are not on the show anymore because u guys really don’t need it to get ahead in the business. believe me those other kids need all the help they can get and even so, i don’t think any of them will make it very far. i heard you have a my space. how can we find you on there. if u read this, please let us know. stay strong and ignore all of the jealous haters out there. love, berta
May 2nd, 2008 at 10:57 pm
hey rockwell, if we want to read writings from a crack head i guess we can read your comment. wow what a pos u are. who the f are you to call that little girl dumb. fu
May 6th, 2008 at 8:24 pm
yo rockwell hayley is extremeley smart!!so shut up she can do more than act go watch her sing on youtube
May 9th, 2008 at 12:00 am
As I said before, I stopped watching when Rocky and Hayley left the show. Now I’ve been alerted to the pitfiul fact that Mackenzie has won the contest. All I can say is…it’s an incredible miscarriage of justice. Whoever made these ridiculous choices should have their head examined. It’s truly astonishing that a little girl channeling Shirley Temple’s most obnoxious traits and mannerisms from 80 years ago has beaten out Hayley for the high honor. C’mon, Danny, you’re living in the past. It’s 2008, let Rocky and Hayley host next years edition of I KNOW MY KID’S A STAR.
May 9th, 2008 at 1:43 am
I’m sure Rocky made that comment about a tampon hoping that people would believe she is still young enough to have a period. Ten pounds of makeup doesn’t fool anyone. As far as her attitude is concerned, maybe she has a stripper pole from the old days stuck up her flat butt. Nothing sadder than an old washed up hooker.
May 9th, 2008 at 11:39 am
Rocky…if you read this, can you explain to me what California Law says that your child can’t sleep in the bed with you?? I have never heard that in my life..she’s your daughter, for heaven’s sake.
May 11th, 2008 at 6:53 pm
you would know all about wanting to look younger 1lynnnn aka shari you look like your a hundred years old and could use a face lift.You rright there is nothing sadder than a washed up hooker aka you!!
May 12th, 2008 at 1:30 pm
You guys made a huge mistake when you eliminated Haley and Rocky from the show! Doesn’t VH1 see star potential and star power? Haley is going to be the next young star and VH1 should find a way to bring them back! I’m sure that your ratings when down when they were eliminated. Haley is very talented and sweet; Rocky is real and entertaining! I no longer watch the show and I know others that also stopped watching. Who cares about the new episodes without them!?! Bring Haley and Rocky back!!!
May 12th, 2008 at 11:16 pm
Rocy is older than ambre and ambre is 50.
I’m getting sick of how vh1 allows people to lie about thier age.
What’s wrong with being 50?
May 13th, 2008 at 8:20 pm
hey not shari aka shari’s mom
or shari
stupid rocky is only around thirty and doen’t look like some dirty skank
and don’t you dare diss ambre
because she is only 37 and just likre rocky she is soooo extremeley goregous for her age!!
what did ambre ever do to you ?nothing..
So shut up i know your jealous of people like Rocky and ambre who are actually sucessful and pretty
get a life you twinkie eating liar!!
May 14th, 2008 at 1:56 pm
In the top picture, Rocky looks so Xanax’ed out her eyes are barely open. She’s a pathetic role model for a young girl and I don’t see how the other parents handled her outbursts without wanting to run out of the house. It’s also easy to notice the ones that say they stopped watching the show after Rocky and Haley left and didn’t see McKenzie as she progressed obviously just love the shock factor. Watch Flava Flav if that’s the kind of crap you like but that wasn’t the purpose of this show. I feel sorry for Haley. She showed so much more ability when her lunatic mother wasn’t around and I’d be humiliated if my friends had to watch my mother act that way on TV.
May 15th, 2008 at 1:50 pm
The poster that made this comment:
“Almost all of these comments are made by Rocky and/or her friends. There is no way that any SANE individual would think for one moment that this lady is normal.”
Is speaking the truth!
It is not unusual for one or two people to fan on someone and act as though they are a horde through different user names. It’s been proven.
I wouldn’t be surprised if it were Rocky herself, because almost every time one of Hayley’s “fans” post, they push for Hayley AND Rocky to get a VH1 show.
It’s time for this woman to seriously seek treatment. Just do it for you daughter.
May 15th, 2008 at 11:52 pm
So sad that just just because Rocky goes under a multitude of names, she thinks everyone else does. Get it through your head dumb a$$, there are many people that think you suck. As stated previously, get a facelift and remove all your nasolabial and eye wrinkles before trying to squeeze into your old stripper ho costumes again. Oh yeah, and don’t forget to douche out your cobwebs hag.
P.S. If you have any trouble with the multisyllabic words in the previous passage, try using a dictionary or asking your daughter for help (if you have’t kicked her to the curb for no longer being any use to you). AMF!
May 19th, 2008 at 1:12 pm
you all are jealous pigs rocky continuoulsy posts under one name and that’s rockyrocknroll unlike you shari or 1 lynn or not shari intherealworld
May 19th, 2008 at 4:12 pm
So, then Rocky, are we to believe that anyone who isn’t skinny is an idiot? A person’s quality of character is not measured by how much they eat. I would be careful, you are going to piss off a majority of the people in the world who aren’t a size 0. Oh, well, you WOULD piss them off if they even cared enough to listen to your awful music and antics in the first place.
15 minutes are up… back to the sleazy B movies for you. Oh wait, it’s been four years since you had a role in one of them… no wonder you are trying to get famous through your daughter… you’re chance at stardom is over.
May 19th, 2008 at 6:38 pm
what about this rocky didn’t say fat people were bad in general she just metioned one but maybe you feel the need to cnvey that thru rocky and maybe you don’t like fat people.The only fa t &~~ beeyotch rocky ever refered to was shari
i’m not a isze zero and i am not pis sed off at all
you might not be a size zero but your standing up for shemale sheri that is what she dislikes
May 25th, 2008 at 7:40 am
Whoever this Shari person is (are we talking about Cameron’s mom???) is a sick individual. She writes awful things in truly disgusting language about Rocky all over the blogosphere AND Myspace. What is this obsession about??? That she got more camera time? That’s what VH1 reality is all about and people love it!
I don’t knowwhy this person has targeted Rocky, Rocky never claimed to be the perfect mother. She may be crazy but there is no doubt she loves Hayley. For some reason, people (”shari?”) cannot see past Rocky’s bigger than life personality and see the real person underneath - a pretty cool person you’d probably love to hang out with.
Internet stalkers and whiners are pretty pathetic people who fuel their rants with pouting and jealousy + a touch of psychosis. Please move on with your life and let Rocky entertain the many fans she accumulated from the show - we’d appreciate it, thx.
June 1st, 2008 at 7:38 pm
What mother wants her kids listening to the fowl language that Rocky the witch of the west uses? Check out my site on you tube at C1ickagain. Rocky is a washed up 5 minute whor who upstaged her own daughter on IKMKAS and she is a terrible mother and role model.
June 1st, 2008 at 7:50 pm
hey Sheri or c1ickhere what ever you wanna go by u should really stop what your doing on bashing Rocky rocky is a hell of alot better mother then you are. With you and your purple hair. With the harassing of kids and minors you will end up in jail with nobody to come visit u. Because if you keep going and take things to far like ruining their myspace again i’m sure someone’s gonna sue. And i’m gonna wanna be their to testify against you.
June 1st, 2008 at 10:57 pm
hey TC i just wanted you to know that Rocky and Hayley share a bunk bed it’s nothing perverted. So i’m just tellin you so you don’t think its perverted when she said that. and for any of you who think that that is perverted your wrong there is nothign wrong with that.
June 2nd, 2008 at 2:47 pm
Rocky has no talent and is a fake. She plays guitar like this: Blang, blang, blang, blang,,then clang, clang, clang, clang then back to Blang………Straight strum only with first position cords. She cant read music and her voice is awful.. She is a terrible mother and terrible role model.
July 12th, 2008 at 10:07 pm
I love Rocky she is a great mother, i wish she was mine. She is awsome. I love her songs. And I wanna heard U play better. U say she has no talent ha, I saw her on the sci-fi channel in RAPTOR she co stared with Erica Roberts that’s pretty A-list to me. c1ick BAM on U hater XoXo ROCKANDROLL

Is her 15 minutes up yet
October 23rd, 2009 at 11:15 am
i can’t believe they’ve got this nutty wannabe back on Vh1…i looked her up on imdb and spent the next 22 seconds laughing hysterically…my belief in the reality of Tough Love is gone. if they have any entertainment sense, they’ll hook her up with Danny B.! hahaha, very funny Vh1.
