Charm School Recap – Episode 2 – Snapping Bubbles

Of all the ridiculous things to happen in this series of ridiculous things, one moment shines just slightly brighter than the rest:

cs3_2_fb8_50

But there’s much, much more where that came from. Believe it!

SPOILER ALERT!

Good morning!

cs3_2_fb8_1

We’re still early enough in this go ’round of Charm School that it’s OK for the girls to act as recklessly as possible. This is essentially the morning of our semester. Forget what I said in my Daisy of Love recap this week: the best part of waking up is not penis in your cup; it’s bitching in your brew.

Not that you could sleep if you wanted to, for you see:

cs3_2_fb8_2

…the screaming match would prevent that. In footage that seems to have happened when the girls moved into the house (they’re all wearing their pre-uniform outfits), So Hood and Bubbles bicker about rooming together. Well, it’s more like Bubbles exists and So Hood rants at her. Things escalate to the point of So Hood saying, “Shut the f*** up talkin’ to me!” Bay Bay Bay hears this from what seems to be another room, says “Uh oh,” jumps up…

cs3_gif1

…and proceeds to snap into a Slim Jim (Heather Chadwell™).

cs3_2_fb8_3

Hilariously, Farrah can be spotted in the background finding this, well, hilarious.

farrah_hilar

Bay Bay Bay essentially backs Bubbles against the wall…

cs3_2_fb8_4

…and soon, there forms a line of girls screaming at Bubbles.

cs3_2_fb8_8

It’s unclear what Bubbles did to drum up such ire. It couldn’t have been worse than a bit of soft shoe or the Cabbage Patch or perhaps rhapsodizing dolphins. But then you know one of the girls would have been like, “I’m not here to make animal friends, be they surf or turf!” Whatever. The point is that even with editing being as confusing as it is in this case, it’s really hard to believe that the girls’ reaction isn’t 10,000 times beyond what Bubbles’ perceived indiscretion called for.

cs3_2_fb8_6

Great question, Brittanya. I’m watching this show and even I couldn’t tell you.

It kind of cools off after Risky announces, “With these three right here, you not gon’ win!”

cs3_2_fb8_7

It’s not right, nor is it OK, but at least it’s over.

It’s almost time for the day’s lesson, but first a mimosa.

cs3_2_fb8_10

I’m so impressed that she chose an appropriate beverage for morning instead of just pounding tequila like you know she wants to. Such a lady, this one!

Today’s commandment is:

cs3_2_fb8_11

The girls convene in the classroom…room, where Lala introduces them to:

cs3_2_fb8_12

Today, they’re focusing on social responsibility.

cs3_2_fb8_13

Social responsibility comes in many forms. Curious wording aside, Bubbles gives a relatively salient lesson in global warming. Not that Ashley cares — she is bored and will continue using aerosol hairspray, anyway. Far be it from anyone to cut her off from the diversion that aerosol provides, ozone be damned. Having a hole on the floor as her toilet while growing up in Brazil traumatized Marcia. That’s fair. Bubbles thinks that poverty isn’t necessarily condemnation to an unhappy existence — she knows people who eat only what they grow and take baths in rivers and “they could be the happiest people.” And I could be a clown with balloons as my man hooters, but I’m not. Just saying. Brittaney Starr once took a stand regarding women’s voting, and look at what a great president we have! I like to think that Brittaney Starr likes to think that she had a major part in Obama’s election.

So that’s the lesson, basically. What I’m taking away from it is that each of these girls is stranger than the last. They’re told to report to their lockers to find their materials for the day. Once up there, they find jumpsuits.

cs3_2_fb8_14

They’re not all this flattering, though. So Hood is just so pretty. Anyway, there are three different colored jumpsuits spread (not so) randomly across the lockers. This effectively splits the girls into three teams of four. On the Green Team is Bay Bay Bay, Farrah, Bubbles and Natasha. On Blue is Risky, Brittanya, Ki Ki and Marcia. Pink is So Hood, Ashley, K.O., and Brittaney Starr.

The girls board the bus, where So Hood takes the opportunity to make a joke about requesting, “Do not resuscitate” if Bubbles were her doctor. Not to further Bubbles’ ridicule, but a more biting joke would have been that if Bubbles were her doctor, she wouldn’t even need to make such a request. Sorry, it’s just that convoluted nastiness is kind of a pet peeve of mine.

cs3_2_fb8_15

They arrive at the site of their challenge, and here’s what they’re faced with:

cs3_2_fb8_16

Sitting amongst the trash are…

cs3_2_fb8_17

…Ricki Lakey, Lala and…

cs3_2_fb8_18

This challenge, plain and simple, is an L.A. River cleanup. The team who does the best per Ricki Lake’s sense (i.e. subjectively) wins and gets put on the Dean’s List. The girls have 15 minutes. And go!

cs3_2_fb8_19

Risky interviews that her strategy is to get lawn chairs, car doors and “all kinds of big things.” I like how she thinks! Ashley, meanwhile, meanders and tries her best to look busy without actually doing anything. She interviews that picking up garbage is worse than giving a lap dance to a fat man. For its striking imagery and its ripped-from-real-life nature, I give this metaphor two nips up! While Ashley complains about the smell, her partner in blondeness, Farrah, steps it up and puts more effort into this challenge than anyone ever would have predicted.

As it winds down, many of the Real Chance girls can be heard complaining about their hair and nails getting messed up. Someone (I think Bay Bay Bay) says, “I think I smell like piss.” That seems like something you’d want to be sure about. And look, regarding this complaining, I’m positive that concern about such issues aren’t just confined to this group. It’s not like there was something in Real and/or Chance’s saliva that made them more sensitive to aesthetic disarray. It’s clear that no matter what the end result looks like, such matters are important in the Rock of Love girls’ lives as well. It’s just that the Real Chance girls are the girls that we hear complaining at this time.

cs3_2_fb8_20

The trash is collected and in the bins:

cs3_2_fb8_21

It looks like a draw, but it turns out that the Green Team are named winners:

cs3_2_fb8_22

And if you’ve tuned in to watch gracious defeat, you’ve come to the wrong network:

cs3_2_fb8_23

cs3_2_fb8_24

cs3_2_fb8_25

cs3_2_fb8_26

Those last words come from Marcia, who interviews that she’s happy with her accomplishments, but “the Real Chance of Girls are complaining about it!” Real Chance of Girls. Now that is the transsexual dating show that I want to see. There’s a lot you could do with that title — I’d take whatever interpretation.

On the bus, Ki Ki complains about pulling out the braids underneath her weave as a result of this challenge. Real girls on real issues, that’s why this show is awesome. K.O., seemingly snitches that Marcia wondered aloud why everyone was complaining. Marcia jumps in and explains that they were there for a reason…

cs3_2_fb8_28

Ki Ki flies into a conniption that is confusing and loud, not to mention amazing. In other words, Ki Ki opens her mouth and the usual comes out.

cs3_2_fb8_291

And if you think she’s getting tired, well, she’s just waking up.

At home by the pool, Bubbles is vexed about being such a target.

cs3_2_fb8_30

With tears in her voice, she says that the Real Chance girls really hurt her with all their comments regarding her intelligence.

cs3_2_fb8_31

Bay Bay Bay does what looks like very arduous interpretive dance in Bubbles’ face and calls her “passive aggressive.” Bay Bay Bay thinks anything that doesn’t involve aggressive jumping jacks and mouth foam is “passive.” Ki Ki interviews that Bubbles’ self-defense annoyed her. Of course it did.

cs3_2_fb8_32

So now Ki Ki’s in there, screaming in Bubbles’ face things like, “You ain’t gon’ out-talk me, bitch. I got a big-ass mouth. My s***’s surround-sound in this motherf***er.

cs3_gif2

Well, at least she’s aware of it.

Meanwhile, Marcia has her hair in spikes for no good reason. And you can’t even blame it on tequila, because it seems that she put her hair in spikes to prepare for it, not as a result of it.

cs3_2_fb8_33

At some point, she spills some and then so as not to waste it, rubs it in her leg:

cs3_2_fb8_34

It’s like Leaving Las Vegas, but less hilarious.

Then outside, something kind of terrible happens. Marcia and Farrah sit around a table and So Hood walks by. Marcia calls out to her by saying…

cs3_2_fb8_35

She doesn’t mean it as an insult. I don’t even think she means it as a reference to the place(s) SoHo, because I’m willing to be that Marcia has no idea what that is. So Hood is not in the mood to be called a ho, and so she responds…

cs3_2_fb8_36

Marcia’s excuse is, “I’m bad with names!” She should cut the crap and say, “I’m bad with people!” She continues her bickering with So Hood from across the pool…

cs3_2_fb8_37

…and then from the balcony…

cs3_2_fb8_38

If you haven’t seen this episode, I’m sure you can still imagine how Shakespearean the whole setting is. Wasn’t it William S., himself who first uttered the words said by Marcia as she stumbles into the house: “Why everybody so for real dude?” Yes, indeed. I think it was.

Not to be outdone in the realm of bitchiness, Ashley interviews about what fun it is to tease Brittaney Starr, the craziest person she’s ever met. And as a stripper in Vegas, I get the feeling that Ashley’s brushed up on her share of crazies. Farrah and Ashley laugh about this, and she suggests they both go punch Brittaney in the ass. A cheek for each fist, just like grandma used to do!

We see footage of Brittaney entering the bathroom with some…contraption.

cs3_2_fb8_39

The extras suggest that this is an enema. I cannot confirm either way, I’m happy to report.

Ashley and Farrah mess with B.S. for a while…

cs3_2_fb8_40

And then they notice that there is a lock on the outside of the bathroom door. There it is, just sitting there, waiting to oppress someone. And who are Ashley and Farrah to pass up an opportunity? They lock her in and wait for her to freak out.

cs3_2_fb8_41

It doesn’t take long. Brittaney kicks on the door and pleads to be let out. She gets to the point of begging to be slipped a magazine under the door. Whoa, submission. That’s pathetic enough to really make me feel for her.

Ashley and Farrah continue to torment her, at one point, sliding a hot dog under the door…

cs3_2_fb8_43

The hot dog becomes somewhat skinned by the door in the process, making it even more disgusting than I ever thought a hot dog could be. These girls are so full of surprises! And here’s another one:

cs3_2_fb8_44

Well, excuse me!

Just kidding. It’s a fire extinguisher that Brit has sprayed to…I don’t know why. Because it would be dramatic is always a good default explanation for any of these girls’ behavior, so I’m gonna go with that.

Now that that’s over, it’s time for Farrah and her exposed ass to get some sleep.

cs3_2_fb8_45

Except, there’s a problem:

cs3_2_fb8_46

A bug and some crumbs have been planted in her bed! Woe is Farrah’s exposed ass. She approaches Brittaney to hand her hers.

cs3_2_fb8_47

It’s not a scorpion or even a plastic scorpion, even, but whatever. Brittaney admits to it and says Farrah can remedy the situation by just shaking out her sheets. Well, Brittaney is an expert on eating in bed, so she’d know. Farrah tosses at her what looks like a cucumber with a weave track wrapped around it:

cs3_2_fb8_48

Aw, cute. Farrah starts threatening Brittaney, and so Brittaney pulls out the big guns, if you will:

cs3_2_fb8_49

I love that her bed hoarding has now expanded to include hardware. Do not be surprised if we find out in a later episode that Brittaney Starr is using a table saw as a pillow.

cs3_2_fb8_51

Everyone’s threats turn out to be as empty as an expired fire extinguisher.

The next day, Bay Bay Bay tells Brittaney they want to put her through “the initiation process.” The Real Chance girls are essentially taking her under her wing. Since detention requires voting, this show is something of a numbers game. And what better place to practice for future I Love Money seasons than Charm School? That’s what I always say, anyway. So Hood tells Brittaney: “Next time they say something to you, just say, ‘Kiss my black ass.’ Even though you white, just say, ‘Kiss my black ass.’” That ought to get people nice and confused! Confusing people seems to be what the Real Chance girls are all about.

Brittaney takes this lesson extremely seriously, jotting down various hilarity:

cs3_2_fb8_53

cs3_2_fb8_54

Ki Ki strategizes about splitting her clique’s vote between Ashley and Marcia. Brittaney approves saying that she wants all of the Rock of Love bitches out of there except for herself. I never would have gotten that if she hadn’t qualified. Thanks, Brit!

Brittaney, awesomely, leans off the balcony and screams at Ashley, Marcia and Brittanya, “KISS MY BLACK ASS!

cs3_2_fb8_55

Shockingly, no one takes her up on this command.

Elimination looms, but before that, Ricki wants to talk with some of the girls.

cs3_2_fb8_56

Brittaney tells Ricki of the bathroom incident, and that it involved the girls calling her fat. Whether she knows that this will appeal to Ricki’s sympathy on a very basic level is too hard to call. I wouldn’t put conniving past any of these girls at any point, though.

Marcia interviews again about her clashing with the “Real Chance of Girls.” That’s never not going to be funny. She also cries about her dealings with Ki Ki.

cs3_2_fb8_57

Ricki can’t help but wonder if Marcia’s drinking is adding to her problems.

Bubbles talks about being terrorized, but she’s afraid to name names. She won’t reveal anything until Ricki pinky swears that Bubbles’ name will not be mentioned.

cs3_2_fb8_58

Ricki seems to decline. Maybe because she’s not bound to any dean-student confidentiality, maybe because pinky-swearing is ridiculous. Hard to say.

Risky talks about the stuff that went down without incriminating herself. “I’m always right there,” is how she puts it. Risky is tricky!

Then, detention:

cs3_2_fb8_59

The girls vote for whom they think should hit the carpet. Brittaney Starr gets the ball rolling in the least surprising of places:

cs3_2_fb8_60

Those exclamation points are extremely effective. Then it goes like this: K.O. votes for Marcia, Brittanya votes for Ki Ki, and so on, with each Real Chance girl voting for Marcia and each Rock of Love girl voting for Ki Ki.

Back in the room, Ki Ki rants. Again, it falls on confused ears.

cs3_2_fb8_61

Elimination!

cs3_2_fb8_62

The girls up for expulsion are:

cs3_2_fb8_63

At last, something that isn’t confusing. When Ashley’s asked why she’s there she cites the Brittaney-bathroom incident. Correct! Marcia says that there’s a division between the Rock of Love and Real Chance girls. She says the Rock of Love girls try to get along with everyone, but they’re always getting yelled at. She’s so right. If you put a water gun to my head and told me to name the first two words that came to mind regarding the Rock of Love Bus girls, “hospitable” and “meek” would be the two. Totally. Kiki says she’s on the carpet because she embraced someone the Rock of Love girls hate (i.e. Brittany Starr). You say “embraced,” I say, “adopted as a pawn,” whatever! Anyway, this is at least plausible.

As Ki Ki is explaining herself, Marcia raises her hand. Without raising her voice, Ki Ki firmly asks Marcia to let her talk. Farrah takes exception to this.

cs3_2_fb8_64

Marcia uses Ki Ki’s reaction to her attempt at interruption as evidence of her point. “This is what I’m talking about!” she says. So Hood starts talking about how the Rock of Love girls just want to drink. Farrah interrupts her and then they bicker a little and Farrah says, “I’m done with this! I’m out!” Ashley agrees and follows her.

cs3_2_fb8_66

And then so does Marcia!

cs3_2_fb8_67

Ricki is left speechless…

cs3_2_fb8_68

And Ki Ki’s all…

cs3_2_fb8_69

“Told ya so.”

Then Brittanya takes the Real Chance girls to task, saying they’re just as wrong as Ashley, Farrah and Marcia are for leaving.

cs3_2_fb8_70

Basically, everybody hates everybody and no one’s ashamed to admit it. Ah, open communication lines. Such a gift. Such a curse.

In her room, Farrah and Ashley packs up. Ashley says that this show has become Real Chance of Love, and she didn’t sign up for Real Chance of Love. To be fair, the hair here isn’t silky enough for this to be Real Chance of Love. Ricki comes in and Farrah tells her she’s losing her mind.

cs3_2_fb8_71

cs3_2_fb8_72

With her soothing words, Ricki seems to convince everyone to stay.

Meanwhile, Lala talks to the others in the detention hall.

cs3_2_fb8_73

Lala worries about the divide in the house becoming a black/white thing. That’s especially problematic now that Brittaney Starr’s ass is black. So Hood says something about the Rock of Love girls taking showers together. Really, if they didn’t invite you, that’s kinda none of your business. Unless their activity is clogging up the drain.

Eventually, everyone reconvenes in the elimination room…

cs3_2_fb8_74

Ricki’s quick about things. Because she’s hindering the girls’ learning and “driving groups apart,” Ki Ki is leaving. So Hood and Bay Bay Bay look shocked.

cs3_2_fb8_75

Ki Ki talks major crap on her way out.

cs3_2_fb8_76

Hey, at least she’s true to herself.

After that, we see So Hood crying and changing and threatening to leave.

cs3_2_fb8_77

Between the last three episodes of Daisy of Love and all these girls threatening to drop out of Charm School, it’s clear that on VH1, leaving is soooooooooo this season.

Before we get anything conclusive re: this, we’re told:

cs3_2_fb8_78

It’s funny when they see fit to tell us this because when are these shows not to be continued? Even their finales promise as much!

I think that them bi$#($*) from real chance of love need to shut the hell up. Im sick of hearing their mouths. Hell yea Ki Ki should of went home, nobody wants to ehar that bickering all the time. Bay Bay Bay should be next to go!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Janice Reaves May 19, 2009 at 11:14 am

First! I’m tired of people using race to divide one another, there is only one race of people and that is the human race. Every human being DNA traces back to Africa so like it or not “we are one.” In my opinion every woman on this show needs help! They’re immature, sluttish, and lack morals. I’m tired of hearing Ashley and Marcia calling the Chance of Love girls loud and ghetto have they listened to themselves lately? You’re all ghetto! And what you call a prank isn’t because it’s at the expense of someone else. You throw stones, and sooner or later you will get back what you dish out. I don’t agree with Ricki’s decision to remove KiKi she should have sent all three girls home but she decided to save the drunk and the slut. Ricki the reason these girls are on your show is to learn and change there negative behavior and every girl you brought down on the carpet last night displayed the same behavior they came to the show with. Kikki has as a temper, Marcia is an alcoholic and Ashley is hateful and mean spirited. You’re wrong for just penalizing one girl, because they all should have been removed.

dt May 19, 2009 at 11:16 am

So now Riki is racist, give me a break. She eliminated two white girls last week, KiKi is just a mean spirited &^`&~)()!&#$__+&% who instigates ^@+@^@&++)_^%#$& for no reason, same with Bay Bay Bay. Bubbles is a sweet girl and they just want to pick on her. Ever think maybe they (BBB and KIKI) are the racist ones????

Lisa May 19, 2009 at 11:38 am

Last night Charm School was a whole bunch of crap. To me it was all about race. Yes, Ricky did make the wrong decision. Ashley should have went home. If the girl at Charm School learn nothing else, 1) they need to stop all of that drinking they are talking about their children, well that is not setting an example and 2) they need to learn how to get along with people of the opposite race, it is time for us as people to get along as one. Last night the show was a mess.

xxMIZZJACQUETTAxx May 19, 2009 at 12:18 pm

I HONEST MYSELF RISKY THE REALEST PERSON I WANT HER WINs SOOOOO BAD BUT NOT EVERYBOBY TO BE A LIAR,FAKE,LOUDMOUTHs OR DRUNKS THANK GOD….

Hottie May 19, 2009 at 12:26 pm

I think Riki made the RIGHT decesion. Kiki’s loud,ugly ghetto @~~+&~$($_+__$) was not ready for charm school. I find it hard to believe Bay Bay’s ugly @~~+&~$($_+__$) is ready for a change. The only reason why Bay Bay gets loud , is so she can fit in w/Kiki, and So Hood.Bay Bay is a follower! So the next girl who should be sent home is Bay Bay. I cannot believe some guy would want Bay Bay as his wife.
On this show there is only 3 girls who are ready to better themselves, and to me that is Riski,Kyo, and Britanya.
Marcia’s drunk @~~+&~$($_+__$) needs REHAB not Charm School.

Sita May 19, 2009 at 12:38 pm

Leaving out race, this show has several logistical problems. The rule changes from the last season to this one have created this situation. First, the designation of immunity is done far enough in advance to allow for someone with immunity to take advantage of that to engage in bad behavior. Second, the girls now vote on who goes on the carpet, which allows for more strategizing. Another thing that doesn’t help is the elimination structure, which is very predictable after the first few eliminations.

In my opinion both Ashley and Kiki should have gone home. Both Kiki and Ashley abused a fellow contestant and the only shade of difference I can see in them is that Ashley could admit that what she did was wrong. But with all of the above, all you’ve got to be in this case is not as wrong as the most wrong person, and the most wrong person actually eligible for elimination is Kiki. In a just world Farrah, Bay Bay Bay, and So Hood would also be on the carpet for their behavior this week. They were full participants, but they weren’t in the right position to get called out.

As to the long-term prognosis of the characters, I don’t think Ashley (inherently mean) and Bay Bay Bay (preachy, not reflective, a bully) are salvageable. I would suspect Farrah will do fine if she’s split from Ashley — her problem is resistance to peer pressure. And I honestly don’t know about So Hood — like Brittanya and Natasha, her major challenge is self-control. Eventually Brittaney Star will do something stupid and get tossed. Most likely KO and Marcia and Bubbles will get tossed for failing to “grow,” which is Charm School speak for “not actually having anything seriously wrong with them to begin with.” So I’m guessing the final showdown will be between Risky and Farrah.

tru26 May 19, 2009 at 12:55 pm

I am so happy that ghetto B***H kiki went home. I hate her and baybaybay and so hood and I’m black. Its black woman like that, that make it so hard for black woman like me and I’m sick of it.I hope vh1 never allows any of these woman back on reality tv. I’m not a blogger at all but after seeing these ghetto a** woman behave with no class I had to say something. I have a daughter and I would feel like an absolute failure if my daughter turned out to be like either of these three woman. All three of these woman need to learn how to act, and maybe some very intense counseling might teach them how to act like woman and not low class, low budget, illiterate ghetto woman. It should be against the law to allow these woman to have children. These woman are a complete waste of skin, and air. They should do the world a favor and just disappear.!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Whatever! May 19, 2009 at 12:57 pm

Whatever u people say who are on Ricki KKK Lake’s side, SHE WAS WRONG! And y’all know it. I bet u on anything a BLACK girl is not going to win this whole thing. So far Natasha or Risky should be the winners. KO just donated all those clothes on purpose to make it look like she’s soooooo poor and has nothing. I could be wrong, but that was the same thing Sapphyri put in moe’s head, and she won. Whatever y’all say who’s on Ricki’s side, WHATEVER! RICKI KKK LAKE was wrong!

Now I can’t wait to see next monday’s episode to see if RICKI KKK LAKE is going to run behind So hood when she tries to leave. We’ll See!

I’M OUT!

Lotsof love May 19, 2009 at 1:03 pm

bay bay bay is a &(!*$@`!^%##)&!$~ ki ki and so hood are &(!*$@`!^%##)&!$~ es too. they all should get eliminated

mollination May 19, 2009 at 1:07 pm

Rich, if you notice the editing between chonology/timeline, then please tell me you noticed that Brittaney Starr was NOT actually leaning out the window!?

That’s the only reason I checked this post, beccause the second I saw it I about died laughing. The photoshop is miserable. It’s from the shot of her in the bathroom with baybaybay, then absolutely hilariously photoshopped over a balcony scene, where even the background is fake looking.

This show, with the “phone call placed in the bus” by that blonde girl from Rock of Love Bus, to this–takes the most liberty with the word “Reality”. They’re faking plotlines now?

SMH May 19, 2009 at 1:17 pm

Oh Please people! Stop defending RICKI KKK LAKE! I need for all black people to wake up and realize that no matter what in this world, we will always be looked down on from the white person’s eyes. I wasn’t surprised when RICKI KKK LAKE sent home ki ki, b/c no black person is going to win it all. Everyone knows that Ashley was wrong, but the ones who don’t want a black person to suceed, is stating that “Oh it was all fun and games, it was joke what ashley did” YEAH RIGHT! GET OUTTA HERE!Okay so if ashley kicked Brittany storr in the butt, will it still be fun and games? And also i’m so disgusted w/ La La b/c she is just such a poor dean to me. She is suppose to be sticking up for her people and she’s letting RICKI KKK LAKE call the shots. WHAT-EVER!

napes May 19, 2009 at 1:21 pm

Is it just me, or did it seem like the part where Brittany Star leaned out and said “kiss my black a$$” wasnt real… that she was like transposed onto the balcony background…

am i crazy? rich can u shed any light?

Trump7 May 19, 2009 at 1:24 pm

Sorry folks, KIKI has been bad however the blonde click walked off the show after locking someone in the bath room. Ricki talked them back and then the black girl ( KIKI )got kicked off. That is crazy, come on folks there is racism here. I think all of the Black girls should have walked out after Ricki’s decision. That is a portrait of American, whites can but blacks can’t. All though in this case blacks should not want too. And please white people stop commenting and saying you are black we know better.

MyOpinion! May 19, 2009 at 1:46 pm

This Charm School they could have kept it and left it with the way Monique did it!!!(There can be but one!) The girls on this show is not focus at the task at hand!! And that is to win the MONEY! $100,000….. They want to come on the show.. Yelling, Screaming, Fighting , Cursing, Drinking,and making Friends!! And on the real tip I’m glad KiKi is gone and I want BayBayBay to get her A$$ out too!!, and the Ones that drinking all the time need to hit the door too!! I’m going for Risky or KO to win!!! Way to go Ricki get all those crazy B!TC#ES OUT OF THERE!!!! One by one or Two by two!!!

BTARK May 19, 2009 at 2:08 pm

I am definitely going to find better things to do with my time then watch this show. I really enjoyed the first season – I felt like Monique really wanted to see the girls change and understand their self-destructive behavior. I was disappointed when she wasn’t back for the second season. I didn’t care for last year’s season and this year is starting off just as bad. Black/white, it doesn’t matter – everything is tooooo extreme, the yelling, the drinking…. (Is it just me, or do the girls not appear to be staying as busy as they did in the first season. I agree with another poster that the rule changes have made caused too many changes to how someone is sent home.)

I decided not to watch the show again the minute Ricky brought the members of the “Blondetourage” back. They have signed a contract – they walk out – sue their @$$. Don’t beg them to come back. They made a decision that said “I would rather continue to be a broke stupid fake blonde than a rich one.” Besides they had walked out before the decision was made. I understand, the show is set to run so many weeks and if you lose 3 in one night, than you have to find filler. VH1 should have let the 3 leave, Ricki could have announced, “well all you ladies are saved tonight” and then when the season was over and the show ran short – VH1 could have played music – hmmm that is an original idea.

I was glad to see Kiki go – lord, I was hitting the mute button every time she opened her mouth – all that yelling wasn’t necessary. But I don’t intend to watch next week – I don’t have any interest in seeing all the rant and raving over it being a racist thing – it wasn’t. What Ashley did was stupid and mean but at least she is not constantly trying to start a fight or instigate trouble like Kiki was doing. (Least we forget that other members of the “blondetourage” have already been sent home.

No I don’t care anything about watching “BayBayBay” trying to convince everyone that it is a racist thing. She is just angry because she now doesn’t have anyone’s coat tail to hang on to.

Great time of year to be outside instead of inside watching the crap that VH1 calls “reality”.

Selina May 19, 2009 at 2:08 pm

first of all im soooo glad that big a** mouth kiki went home and hopefully that loud mouth bay bay bay does to..they just need to shut the F**K up!!!

Ashely and Ferreh.. that was mean and if they really want to change they should have not done that to the x porn star. Just leaver her alone til she gets in your face.. and

marcia is cutting down on the drinkin so ppl need to lay off cause she was pickin up gross stuff when she was wasted( least shes helpin still drunk), Bubbles is not so bright but why do ppl have to make fun of her..you already know that shes not that smart so if ppl keep making fun of her thats sad cause its like making fun at a 1 yr old….just let her be herself and ignore her… SHe wont notice..lol just smie and wave. Damn britanya is hot

missboss May 19, 2009 at 2:17 pm

PEACE OUT LOUD MOUTH $^@^!_~!$#^(_“#) I HOPE ALL THREE OF THOSE BIG MOUTH HOOD RATES GO. BAY BAY BAY; SO HOOD; KIKI. All three of you look like men, you have horse shaped mouths. They think they are the next New York.. NOT.. I cannot not wait for those other two to kick rocks. Bay Bay Bay’s Husband needs to stick something in her big mouth shut her up for a while always in someone elses mess. So Hood well your name speaks for itself. Bay Bay Bay looks like a giraff and she looks starved for food. So hood, added some weave but didnt change her mouth, she should of got a grill maybe she wouldnt be able to talk as much, and poor kiki she needs reality shows to help pay to get rid of her man face. BOTTOM LINE JUST SHUT THE HELL UP. THE VIEWERS DONT EVEN WANT TO HEAR IT.

Bullets May 19, 2009 at 2:24 pm

Kiki totally deserved to go home. What all the Real Chance of Love girls fail to realize is their mistakes. At least Ashley could admit that locking Brittaney Starr in the bathroom was totally wrong. Kiki, Bay Bay Bay, and So Hood all fail miserably at admitting their wrongs. Kiki being unable to see what she did wrong, is exactly why she deserved to go home. It has nothing to do with race. Stop using it as an excuse for everything.

Flash&Trash May 19, 2009 at 2:25 pm

tisk tisk…always with the race card. Yes what ashley and farrah did was wrong. However, when bubbles went to ricki terrified of retalitation from kiki that was a huge red flag. Kiki was more than proud of her behavior, the first part of changing is admitting you have a problem. “you aint gon out talk me, I got a big as$ mouth,” then you watch her laugh after saying some people might confuse her “strong personality” as intimidation. That girl was a bully who prayed on the weak notice how nothing happend when marcia called so hood “soho”. Speaking of marcia I like how everyone says she has a horrible drinking problem blah blah blah but yet no one noticed that KO was drinking mamosas with her?? We all see what we wanna see I guess. Ricki said from the start that she would not tolerate disruptive behavior and that was exactly was Kiki was. And to all of you who have obviously never heard the term reverse racism, get a damn clue and realize that the world is not against you. What is sad is that people would not laugh at you when you use race as a defence if you didn’t constantly use it at the drop of a pin. Make a difference and portray yourself like the proud black women you want to be seen as and stop supporting these bullys and poor displays of human beings.

Breezy's Mom May 19, 2009 at 2:27 pm

It’s funny how the Real Chance of love girls get slammed for yelling but no one acknowledges the fact that the Rock of Love girls bicker and do mean things to each other the just don’t yell when they are doing it. How soon we forget Brittany Star’s hair being pulled, or the fact that the Rock of Love girls have been drunk almost every minute they have been there. Yes, the Real Chance of Love girls are wrong but the ROck of Love girls are no angels either. So there are either alot of racist on this blog or alot of blind people…I don’t know!!!

UMMMMOK May 19, 2009 at 2:35 pm

So if the RCOL girls were so disgusted by brittany being locked in the bathroom, why didn’t any of them let her out of the bathroom? Cause with all the yelling she was doing I’m sure someone heard her. Also it showed risky and KO standing there laughing with alshey and farah.

luthor May 19, 2009 at 3:05 pm

Kiki is a low class loud mouth monster!

texashotgurl05 May 19, 2009 at 3:16 pm

First of all anyone who thinks someone who talks loud deserve to go home over someone who has a drinking problem, and another person who locked someone in the bathroom is about dat bull. number 1 it was ok for ashley and farrah and to lock brittany in the bathroom but they had something to say when the sisters was in bubbles face.its just like hwo people do the bible they take what they want from it and keep it ok and other parts are sacred.they are just as bad as them. and when brittany and so hood walked out ricki didnt chase after them and why was ricki rolling her neck. the rock gurls be talkin mess on the side bar but i bet you they wont step to them like women and say what they got to say…this show is messed up and when the rock gurls left she should have sent them home cause they didnt want to be there so now they wasting everybody time…i dont know about yall but this reunion will be crazy and i cant wait cause ray j reunuion sucked!!!

mz.sexC24 May 19, 2009 at 3:36 pm

KiKi deserves to get kicked off the show, because she cries too damn much. She is always yelling and can’t fight worth (#_“+)&`_$#)($& And to all the other girls they need to grow the hell up yelling at bubbles, and she dont do anything to them. They just pick on her because they know that she wont say anything which make them look stupid.I will just put it this way (“They know who to get stupid with”)

NYC May 19, 2009 at 4:09 pm

I still don’t understand why the Trifecta (bay bay bay, ki ki, and so hood) kept ganging up on Bubbles. SHe is obviously weaker than them yet for some reason whenever one grown woman feels the need to pop off on that poor girl, the other two gotta come co-sign it?

You can tell they come from loud, disruptive households where everyone yells and gets up in each other faces. Ki-Ki looked like a d***** heathen doing all the yelling by the pool. Seriously–what was the point of all that? We get, you’re a loud a** b****. Thank God that heffa is off the show.

And to those of you that can’t see the difference–physically and verbally abusing/intimidating someone constantly is just as bad as hitting them. Ya, Ashley and Farrah locked ole girl in the bathroom and that was wrong, but the way the Trifecta treats Bubbles is much, much worse.

Elle May 19, 2009 at 4:22 pm

This was the funniest recap I have ever read, even funnier than the show!

Raee May 19, 2009 at 4:32 pm

I think all the girls were wrong .. but kiki bay bay bay and so hood had no reason to gang up on bubbles. Like she didnt even do anything to them, bay bay bay is a sorry excuse for a woman .. she runs her mouth WAY to much and she doesnt even realize how DUMB she looks on national tv. && Brittany Star is so fake like could she begg any harder for attention. Anyways i really do think that bay bay bay is two faced and needs to grow up cause there is no reason to have a screaming match with everybody . But i do think it was smart of risky ko natasha and all the others to avoid the drama . Ricki should really open her eyes .

Raee May 19, 2009 at 4:36 pm

to be honest SHUT UP .. i honestly think it was a good choice to send kiki home . i dont think Ricki is a racist . Kiki was obviously a problem . If yu had a girl like Kiki in your face you would want her to go home to . She should be ashamed of herself and then she wanted to play innocent . im GLAD she went home

Nikki B May 19, 2009 at 4:38 pm

I was so irratated after watching this episode. I )#&*~!#%!`&@%_`! ing hate Bay Bay Bay. I think that she will be the reason that every one will stop watching charm school. I hated her on real chance, and i hate her more on charm school. She pumped up ke ke and so hood to act crazy. she knew what she was doing. she is getting every one all crazy so she can look better and win. that *#%~!~)%@)#`*#(&) and now every body wants to pull the race card….bull #+((&^$&%`_!(%$! that dumb *#%~!~)%@)#`*#(&) ki ki got booted because she really sucked. i hope bay bay bay is next.
p.s Writen by a black women….

Renee Andrea May 19, 2009 at 4:42 pm

The ROL girls are acting like their crazy, mean, selves…Even as a white woman, I think I would feel more comfortable around the Real Chance girls……

noree919 May 19, 2009 at 4:46 pm

let me point out a couple of things to my fella bloggers,in this episode you notice that all my sistas are attacking bubbles for what yall know ole girl don’t have it all sooooooo why the fu*k yall still on the girl back!!!
First of all bay bay bay and kiki both are on there for what (exposure) not to change,kiki you pertray to be sooooo
nice and innocent,you are only lookin like a damn fool mami
you are cruel and should’nt no man or woman hire u for sh**
You see something very horrible had to happen to woman growin up cause ain’t nobody that fu**ing angry.You were either bullied or alot individuals didn’t like u mami..take some of that advice Ricky gave u and run wit it cause it can do u some good in the future.Ain’t nothin racist going on bout that show vh1 these are the poeple you all choose for these shows and ain’t none of them there for change…come to the hood and pick up some these broads who genuinely want to change…This is not what I was lookin forward to when waiting for it aire on my t.v. vh1 now Sucks!!!!!!!

Rachell May 19, 2009 at 4:57 pm

I also think it is worth noting that when Ashley and Marcia were called down to the carpet, they understood WHY they were supposed to be there whereas Kiki felt she didn’t deserve to be there and had no earthly idea of WHY she should be called down. In fact, she felt she was entitled to be safe and was seemingly oblivious to her own abusive nature. How can she change if she isn’t even aware of what a ***** she is? At least the other 2 were aware that they had problems.

And people, please don’t slap the “racist” label on Rikki simply becuse she sent home a black woman. I will be the first to call it that, if that’s what it is, but Kiki was a poison in the house.

Don’t worry black folks on the message board who think that these women are making a fool out of black women everywhere. If people were to judge a race or gender based on what they saw on a VH1 reality show, I think we’d all be scr*wed. I’m white, but I don’t get drunk and I don’t have my t*ts hanging out for the world to see. Don’t worry about it.

Bay Bay Bay is also irritating the he** out of me on this show as well. I was getting ready for her to bust out with her Bible and start preaching to Bubbles about her passive aggressiveness.

Bubbles, keep your head up, don’t let these women walk all over you. You’re not a loud, obnoxious girl and you stood up for yourself despite their yelling and you should be proud of yourself.

kalilah May 19, 2009 at 5:00 pm

To baybaybay, kiki, so hood: you’re only as strong as your weakest opponent. You %%@~@`+@^~!&!_*&_ es ain’t crazy, you know who to step to. Bubbles, you don’t have to change because ignorant sluts are stupid. Bubbles, you ain’t that bright, but I like you anyway. You proved though, you didn’t have to stoop to their level, they are just some ghetto hoodrats who will find the weakest person to pick on because they know they’d get punched in the face by a chick like me, who would have punched that hoe kiki in her temple. I would have just mushed baybaybay’s duckface azz

Biff01 May 19, 2009 at 5:07 pm

I don’t think it is a black & white issue. It’s just they have their clicks from thier previous shows and it just happens that one show their were a majority of black women and the other white. Regardless of the race I beleive it would’ve been split that way….

Dat Dude May 19, 2009 at 5:42 pm

“Saltines” make me laugh. You notice how when they can’t control things, they want to get the hell out. That’s their nature. But guess what? No one in this day and age really gives a #&@( about you on that level. VH1 saw a problem when the ROL garden tools wanted to bolt. They knew ratings would drop because not many in America will support a show where the % of an AA winning has just been upped two fold. RL is a joke, and should be more concerned with Milo. She’s out of her league here.

Don’t listen to these so-called “I’m black” or the Saltine brigade. I feel sorry for minorites in Cali, I’ve seen what you guys have to go through first hand, I don’t know how you do it, but kudos. If you have kids interested in the Arts, keep them in Theatre, if not they’ll be paraded on “t.v.” in the likes of images they are not. It will always be about the $$ to the “steins”, your image is the least of their concerns.

Sniff, sniff, from what I’ve been reading smells like it’s time for “Bamboozled” to be re-aired in it’s entirety, commercial free! Thank you Spike, ain’t chit changed.

brandon May 19, 2009 at 5:44 pm

first off, to the people saying Ricky should have talked to KiKi like she did with the other girls, watch the full trailer. KiKi is shown crying and saying she’s learned things about herself she never knew. remember this is a 40 minute show out of the hundreds of hours of tape.

second, how is Ricky racist for sending home a black girl after two white girls on the first episode??

third, K.O is from my city in Oxnard and she always goes into my work. the girl is such a @!!++_^!!&!@*&%*$ she always has an attitude and everyone at my work hates her. i can’t believe she plays so nice on T.V.

Bonita May 19, 2009 at 5:52 pm

I believe that if some of the gurls dnt want to change,then they should leave! Some of these gurls dnt want to change at all. They do the same damn things over and over again. Starting off with bullying, then tryin to yell over each other. That ain’t charm at all. Its just crazy. I think that Ricky made the right decision by sending home kiki. Her attitude proved that when she started mouthing off at bubbles. And whats with all the complaing anyways? Its about charm.

fatima May 19, 2009 at 6:28 pm

i think the wrong lady was sent home. i do feel like its a black and white thing.

Faith May 19, 2009 at 6:30 pm

why should ashley have left? no one is scared to the point that they wont say her name to Ricki. KiKi was activley participating in the terrorizing of other girls. Get over it.

Of course the girls from each show would be cliquey, they only know each other. They are just meeting these other girls, its like being the new kid in school.

Im going Brittanya for the win, unless she beats a *~$!(_+&(*#@_!$!^ up.

Zay May 19, 2009 at 6:48 pm

Why do Bay bay bay and Kiki pick on Bubbles???? Uh …. How about, because that is the only one they can pick on without getting their LOSER As*es kicked.

Ricki Lake was so right to get rid of that Garbage and anyone with half a brain can see Baybaybay should be next because she is doing her loud mouth bS to show off. She aint @)%~+$*~!&#`+*)` and Ashley or Ko or Risky or Farrah should Whoop her AS$!!

Anonymous :O May 19, 2009 at 6:56 pm

I hope that K.O., Brittanya, or Risky wins. s long as it’s not Bay Bay Bay or Ashley, I would be fine.

BIGBURGE May 19, 2009 at 7:12 pm

WOW. YAl r crazy.. there is no racism involved here… PLAIN AND SIMPLE: ALL THE LOUD MOUF )%@*@@&&@&!@__(_~ ES GOTS TO BOUNCE. and that ghetto )*^@&`^^^+++~)(# is annoying.

PahNicky B. May 19, 2009 at 8:40 pm

clearly this season is a black /white thing and thats crazy to , and the fact that Farrah and Ashley act like they don’t understand it when Black girls yell , but they scream at Brittney Star every chance they get , I mean I don’t get it ..they was like “Ricki I don’t understand if their talking or fighting because they’re so loud..”at least when we call each other ~$!`&(#_#+_^@@%_` es and spit in each other’s face and pull each other hair we’re not as loud..wtf?? and then Ricki responds with ” I understand” U understand what Ricki , I know you understand black girls when they scream you had a show for 10 years with all races screaming and you did a whole movie with black chicks back when you was a fat chick. sad to say maybe vh1 needs to keep black girs on a black show with a black judge and the white chicks on their own show to make it far because what happened last night was clearly “I can’t have all the white girls walk out , what kinda show would this be!!!!

kren May 19, 2009 at 9:13 pm

nothing of this show should be used to mirror any problems in society. the people on these shows are used to create drama and are for entertainment purposes. if you really think that these people are here to change or are functional adults in society you are crazy. all of them are !*@(()!&%^&$($&#() ed black or white it doesnt matter. they arent worth arguing about especially for such an intense topic such as racism.

Kitty May 19, 2009 at 10:45 pm

I so agree with dave, I’m so sick of Bay Bay and KIKI running their mouths. Honestly I couldn’t understand a word they were saying. Speak English! But YAY! KIKI is gone. It was not a race thing to have her elminted and not Ashley or Marcia. KIKI was a serious threat to the girls and they felt their lives would be in danger if she stayed. As for Britney Star grow up already. Quit being such a drama queen.

deric dicamillo May 19, 2009 at 11:34 pm

all @*~@~_)*~!~+%)@(* es…. all of them… except for bubbles.

Helen May 20, 2009 at 12:14 am

vh1 is racist they cater to the white women. can’t you see that why they mix rock of love bus with real and chance girls charm and not flavor of love 3 girls.

honeylene May 20, 2009 at 12:41 am

I don’t think race was an issue with Ricki Lake sending KiKi home. Ki ki has been starting s…, with people since Real Chance of Love. Remeber when she said to Lusty about her mom.Well that was wrong and that’s why Real sent her home. I’m black myself and it’s sad to hear peolpe say that race was an issue. All of that racial mess was a long time ago. People need to grow the hell up. There are other issues out there going on in the world than these sluts calling Ricki Lake a racist. I watched her show alot. And she had all types of race on there. So for you ignorant people thinking Ricki Lake is racist. Put yourself in her shoes. When it comes to these nasty women.

korolenko May 20, 2009 at 1:41 am

i can see many guys falling in love with this sweetest creature – Bubbles.
