The Celebreality Interview - Thing 1
“I still have my sister on there, so she’s still representing us. My spirit is through her, so I’m still on the show through my sister,” says Thing 1 on her elimination from Flavor of Love 3. After the jump, the realitwin talks fakeness, being grouped with her sister as one contestant and those nasty oral-sex allegations.
How was your time on the show?
It was a quite an experience. It had its fun moments, I have to say. Being in that environment was definitely intense. As it got closer and closer to the end, it became very emotional.
How did you feel about Flav grouping you with your sister as one contestant?
We always have been close our whole life, but at first it was kind of strange for us to compete as one person. That wasn’t our intention coming into the show. Eventually, it became sort of normal, considering the circumstances we were in. We got used to it, it wasn’t a big thing after a while.
Normal to the point where being split up was upsetting, right?
It was emotional. We knew it was going to happen, but we didn’t think it was going to hit as hard as it did.
That came as a result of the new girls interviews with the “old girls.” Do you want to talk about that? You were made out to be kind of a polygamist…
That’s so not true. What I said was, “We’re fine how it is right now. I cannot tell you how we’ll feel in the future, and as women, it would be difficult for us to share. But at this particular time, our situation is OK.” I wasn’t saying, “We’ll both be with him!” I wasn’t saying that and I wasn’t OK with that. That made me mad because they didn’t air that, and I felt like it looked like I wasn’t being serious.
The Bottom 2 came down to you and your sister and you were the one to leave. Did it make sense to you that you were the one to go?
I feel like it was unfair. My sister and I was feeling him the same exact way. I was feeling Flav a lot, and being in that situation, your feelings grow more and more. For it to be like I wasn’t feeling him more, that was hurtful. If I didn’t care about Flav, I wouldn’t have cared about what girls were fake and what girls weren’t. I woulda just been on there with a mission and that’s it. But no.
Any resentment for your sister for staying?
No, never! No show, no man, no nothing would ever break the bond that me and my sister have. When I went home, I told my sister to keep her head up. Keep fighting, you know?
You talked about not just being on a mission, but you did have a certain strategy going into the house, right?
I mean, it wasn’t like, “This is what we gonna do when we get in the house!” It’s that when you’re around certain females, you pick up on their characteristics and what kind of person they are. It bothered me that you could see right through the girls to what their agendas were. A lot of girls was fake in there, and were just on TV for exposure, to get modeling contracts and all that. They didn’t deserve to be there over somebody that was really there trying to look for love.
So that was the criterion for fakeness? Who was interested in getting involved in entertainment?
Right. Who was there to be there and who was there to get a career out of it.
You formed a bond with Sinceer, which was interesting because no one else did.
Sinceer and Shy were some of the realest girls in the house. They had in mind Flav’s best interests and that’s why we clicked so much. We felt like we were really there for Flav.
Any theories as to why Sinceer gravitated to you, considering how aggressive she was with many of the other girls?
I think real recognized real.
Are you still friends with Shy and Sinceer?
Definitely. We still talk a lot and everything.
Anyone else?
Grayvee. Not really anybody else, though.
Any outstanding beef with anyone?
I just can’t really remember all of them. Maybe if I watched some reruns it would come back to me, but nope. I don’t remember anybody else.
It seemed really unfair to me that the major reason you were eliminated had to do with your ex.
For me to go home off some bullcrap, to know that it was nothing but lies, just to make good TV, I thought it was unfair. I’m always honest. I’m a grown woman. I want to be ashamed of nothing that I do. To be exploited in that way, I was disgusted with that.
I also feel like, even if it were true, how is it anyone’s business what you did before you got in the house, anyway?
I mean, to say it like that, what was in the past was in the past. That doesn’t determine how I felt about Flav. It wasn’t like something came out that I was a prostitute or that I was doing modeling. No. I was only me. But going home based on a lie and for Flav to question me, I was really hurt by that.
Do you have resentment for him?
No. It was hard for him to have to choose between me and my sister and there had to be a reason for one of us to go. I felt like that made it a little bit easier. I still have my sister on there, so she’s still representing us. My spirit is through her, so I’m still on the show through my sister.
Flav cried when he eliminated you. That must have felt good, knowing that he cared so much?
I mean, I knew he cared because we had the connection. We spent a lot of time with Flav off-camera. We formed a bond. Flav is very smart. He can see through people, and he knew we was good-hearted people. It is what it is.
Were you attracted to Flav?
Definitely. I was attracted to how he was. His spirit was just so good and genuine. He was one of the most honest, the coolest person you could ever meet. That attracted me to him more than anything else.
What about a physical attraction?
When you first look at him, you be like, “Whoooo,” or whatever. But once you get past all that and know Flav for Flav, his inner personality, his inner beauty, that overshadows everything to make him the bomb person. You know what I mean?
Are you and your sister identical?
Yeah. Well, we’re supposed to be. (Laughs) I think over the years, we kinda changed.
I saw on your FlavorOfLoveWorld.com profile that you identify as the “curvier” twin.
Yeah. It’s so funny. People say, “Oh my god, she’s so big on TV.” I probably was a little big on the show, but I’m only like a buck 25! TV makes you look different.
Are you and your sister pursuing more work in the entertainment industry?
Well, I have to say that it’s definitely been a blessing being on the show. It gave us a lot of opportunities right now. You just kinda have to weigh out and see what you can do. I’m not no model or a singer or any of that stuff. I just have to wait it out and see what doors I want to go through.
But you didn’t go into the show feeling this way, right? That would have been fake, right?
No. My sister and I have always been shy. We were always shy to do commercials and those kinds of things. That wasn’t our main interest at all.
Did you take anything lasting away from the show?
I feel like I grew as a person, as far as my temper. I don’t be whoppin’ girls. I can handle myself a little better now. It was a learning experience and a great opportunity.
Keep up with Thing 1 via her FlavorOfLoveWorld.com profile.

April 17th, 2008 at 8:32 pm
Come on girl, don’t act like the camera blowed you up like that. If you 125 I guess your twin is 100. Not! I’m 140 my damn self at 5′8″ and I ain’t that damn big. Your shirt was crawling up your side on one episode and not because it was suppose to. I’m glad to say that what goes around comes around because yall were in everybody else personal business until the tables turned on yall. I do know for a fact that yall would have never touch my `%!~ like yall did that other chick. Grow the ^&+~ up man and handle yall `%!~ like real women would instead of jumping on beds and `%!~ How childish is that.

April 17th, 2008 at 7:42 pm
Dear Thing,
I’d like to start with a compliment - your hair was nice and shiny. The worst Thing moment was the sumo wrestler move with Seezinz and that horrible look-down-your-nose stance. WHAT… was THAT? PHYSICAL THREATS. Did you learn that from your family? Jumping on someone’s bed? WHAT… was THAT? Accusing someone of doing the same exact thing you did to everyone else? WHAT… was THAT? You came off like a very young, spoiled brat with bad manners, limited intelligence (speaking, reasoning, recall), and 100% immaturity. One of your better moments was when you were deciding which new girl to grant immunity to - it showed a sense of fairness previously missing but the sad part is, you also came off as 100% untrustworthy so whatever you said was suspect, and probably filled with negative strategy. In the end, it was just gross to see you/twin try to hook up romantically with a 50-year-old man (soon to be) who has fathered 7 kids. He says he wants 10? If everyone jumped off a bridge, would you even stop to think for a second?

NOW IF FLAV WOULD JUST GET RID OF YOUR GATE MOUTH A&% SISTER AND SINCEER WITH THAT 5-HEAD OF HERS! I WOULD PAY A FEMALE TO WHOOP ALL 3 OF Y’ALL HOES. AND CURVIER? WHO LIED TO YOU HOMEY? HOW DA H$@!& CAN YOU BE CURVY WITH A GUT? AND WHO WEIGHS A BUCK 25? YA MONKEY A%$ SISTER? OR IS THAT ALL YOU HAVE IN YA POCKET? LMAO!!! BUT HAD THE NERVE TO CALL YOUR EX FAT AND GREASY?! B^$*@ PLEASE!!! HELL BE HAPPY THAT SOMEONE EVEN WANTED TO BE WITH YOUR UGLY A$#!!! YALL HOES IS PITIFUL!

HE SHOULD HAVE KEPT DEELISHIS WITH HER FIOOONE (## HELL BRING MYAMMEE BACK! SHE’S FINE AS FROG HAIRS! ALL DEM HOES BROUGHT DIRT AND SKELETONS WITH THEM!
April 17th, 2008 at 7:34 pm
Oh yeah, I also liked Prancer, a lot. I kind of wished she would have won. I like all the Flavor of Love 3 girls, but I hated Bee-Ex, Bunz, and Hotlanta.
April 17th, 2008 at 7:32 pm
f$#k fest or what ever your ignorant name is, please, tame yourself. I love Thing 1, so shut your mouth. You have no life but to tell people to kill themselves; you should calm yourself. Anyways, it’s so funny; the only girls I liked on Flavor of Love 3 are her and all of her friends (Thing 1, Thing 2, Shy, SInceer, and Grayvee). They are all very genuine and great girls. I also like Myammee, too. My favorite, however, is Tree. I am going all the way with Tree! I am pretty sure Black will win, she is getting a winner’s edit…as of now, I like the final five, even Seezins (she is growing on me). Any one of them can win, and I would not mind. Well, actually, I don’t like Black, but I have a strange feeling she will win.
April 17th, 2008 at 7:32 pm
i agree with “kbaybay” shes real
April 17th, 2008 at 7:23 pm
Well I hope that flav keeps the other thing around in the end. Why? Because ugly belongs with ugly…lol. For this thing to say that Shy was one of the real girls in the house and the the real flock to one another proves that (&~)_ is fake as hell. Shy stated in her interview that she was playing a character the whole time. Which I think they all are doing. So for that thing to say that she is real clearly is a lie. “Real recognize real” HA!!! Bullshit recognize bullshit! I just hope that there is no Flavor of Love 4, enuff is enuff!!
April 17th, 2008 at 7:20 pm
Puuuulleeezzee!!! Every single one of the busted girls on there are there for exposure! Yall know dam well ya not feelin flav. seriously, every hoodrat, chicken head, hooch wants to be on a reality show. As far as Sincere goes, she is a drunken idiot…she can barely stand up straight. Seriously, and what the hecks going on with the broads, couldn’t they find some less busted broads to be on this hot mess of entertainment that I love to watch and talk smack about? the only one I thought was cool was grayvee with her country self….Hotlanta, nasty ugly hot mess and a bad mother with her herpes havin self….Thing 1 and 2 ya both hurt as hell, shoot yall wounded with your jacked up grills and what the heck really going on under that wig, ya probably bald too!!! What a bunch of losers! But hey thanks for makin funny TV hahahahaha…
Yall some straight wannabes seriously!
April 17th, 2008 at 6:55 pm

Season is a nosey trick and i hope she get booted.I am cheering four thing 2 and sincere. The other 2 chicks like where the hell did they come from just ugly.
April 17th, 2008 at 6:52 pm

April 17th, 2008 at 5:40 pm
I think its funny how both twins could dish dirt on EVERYONE else, but couldn’t take it! LOL! At least no one made the story up or twisted her words to mean something else like they did the other grils: BeeX, Rayna, Myamme, Bunz, Hotalnta, just to name a few! Thing 1 spent most of her time trying to ‘expose’ people, but cried like a baby when the same thing happened to her. Comical!!!
April 17th, 2008 at 5:33 pm
I’m happy that he let he %($ go…One twin down and one more to go. For one they are ugly %($ hell with that big %($ gap in her mouth..two they just on there for TV…..and three that chick knew from the jump the he ex was going to put her on front street…just like she.”I’m a grown woman”, so you need to man. Ain’t nuthin wrong with giving head…lol…..just like they say about the blonde chicks…twins are just the same
April 17th, 2008 at 5:25 pm
Thing 1or2 what ever your name is Please your as* is fake too, and you and your sister are both fruads i dont think that Flav wants either one of you he just wanted a free jump off with twins so he can have some bragging rights tell all his hommies he two for the price of one fool, don’t be stupid what do you have to offer him nothing go back to the ghetto and do what you do su*k di*ks you freak and you’re fat stop acting like the camera blew you up roscos chicken and waffle did that and drinking com juices. PS fix your teeth with the money you made on the show. PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
April 17th, 2008 at 5:12 pm
I THINK IT WAS MESSED UP THAT FLAV BELIEVED SOMEONE HE DIDNT EVEN NO.IF IT TURNS OUT THAT THING2 DONT GET HIM THEY SHOULD HAVE THIER OWN REALITY SHOW.
April 17th, 2008 at 5:02 pm
THAT WAS MESSED UP I HATE HAT OTHER (~&%+
