Buddha Goes to Hollywood!
Ezra Masters, aka Buddha, has a baffling career. He introduced himself on the premiere of I Love New York 2 as a personal trainer, a real estate entrepreneur and a life coach, but forgot to mention that he’d been on BET’s Hell Date — prompting fans to suspect that he was more interested in acting than in winning New York’s heart. Judging from the YouTube clip above, the fans were probably right and it seems possible that his grand plan is panning out. The clip says that it’s from Deserved Better, an upcoming television show by Aaron Sorkin, who is the mastermind behind The West Wing and a script doctor on major Hollywood films like Schindler’s List. If true, Buddha may get way more than 15 minutes of fame. But the dialogue and Buddha’s acting in the clip feel like an after school special and there’s no mention of this supposed TV show anywhere on the Internet. Is this really the work of Aaron Sorkin? Also, what has Ezra been up to that would land him a role in a quality drama? Probably not hair commercials, military service, bikini modeling or being a football player, a fireman, a martial arts expert, a boxer, a great smiler or a tea-drinking business man. But, hey, you never know!

Aloha Ezra, obviously we have never met and I’d be popus to think my words to you would touch you in anyway. However hearing a portion of your story compelled me to say, like the others who have written, I’m sorry for your loss. Tv, modeling, football, these are all things you have done and are doing. I’m sure your family is very proud of your accomplishments and growth through the years. Forgive me for my presumption, but I think your brother would be proud of you too. Words said in the media for all to hear, you can’t help but offend someone or be taken the wrong way. I hope that this minor inconvience doesn’t hinder you on your path to even greater things. Stay true to your heart, hug your mother as often as possible and simply smile at the little idiosyncrasies of life and you will always come out on top of your game. May you stay safe and have true happiness,
Tia
