VH1 Tough Love 2 will premiere Sunday, Nov. 15 at 9/10c on air, but right now we have an extended look at the new season of Steve Ward’s boot camp and the eight (or so) ladies who’ll be made to endure it (peep the cast here). Keep your eyes peeled for an extra special, heretofore unannounced guest!

Also, we’ll be hosting live blog parties next week featuring the best episodes of Season 1. They’ll go down Monday-Thursday at 1 pm ET. And then on Friday, we’ll host one for the live online premiere of the second season at the same time. It’s your first chance ever to see the new season. If you need to set a reminder for the premiere, use the box below.

Next week’s Blog Party is below:

We’re not going to give away who the “she” is in this post’s title (although you should have a good idea by now), but yay. Who knew I Want To Work for Diddy 2 would be graced by this considerable presence so soon?

Do you want to dress like a reality star? I’m sorry, that’s a stupid question. Who doesn’t want to dress like a reality star? VH1 is obviously known for its fashion more than anything (fun fact: the “H” stands for “haute!”), so it only makes sense that a shoe line has been created in honor of the footwear that has defined this great channel. Or whatever!

But really, Shiekh does have a new Reality Starr line that features VH1 talent like Prancer (Flavor of Love 3/I Love Money 2), Cali (Real Chance of Love/I Love Money 2), Jessica (Rock of Love/Rock of Love Charm School), Lady (Real Chance of Love 2) and the always-radiant Luscious (For the Love of Ray J 2). Check out the video of the shoot below. The best part is when Lady is talking about her music career: “I had a dream that Lil Wayne was on my remix, so that’s my motivation to keep going.” Keep reaching for your dreams or whatever, Lady!

Finished shots of the ladies getting their America’s Next Top Model on are below. See how well they smile with their toes (”smoze” is the technical term).

On dealing with Kari Ann’s disagreeable behavior in Sex Rehab, Dr. Drew told us: “We have to be delicate, gentle, and give them room to get with it. In substance treatment it’s, ‘Hey, you either want to get with it, or you don’t. If you don’t, get out of here.’ In sex addiction, you try to give them a little more space and that’s why we were sort of trying to cooperate with her.” Hence, allowing her to dictate: “The easiest way to wake me up is with a cup of juice.” Tune in to Sunday’s show (premiering at 10/9c) to see if Kari Ann gets her juice.

It all comes down to this: Tyler and T Shaw duking it out for the $100,000 and the distinction of not being so toolish after all. Who’ll take it? Make sure to tune in to the season finale of Tool Academy on Sunday at 9/10c to find out!

VH1 is set to chronicle the downward trajectory of former Charles in Charge star and Celebrity Fit Club alum Willie Aames via Broke & Famous, a one-hour documentary premiering Thursday at 10/9c.  You can watch an extended preview above, and also check out Willie talking to ET about his financial ruin. Most curiously comes word that Willie says he is “well on my way” to becoming a financial advisor. Reality TV saves! Anyone in the market?

Heather Chadwell of Rock of Love/I Love Money/Charm School fame is set to appear on this week’s episode of It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia, premiering Thursday at 10/9c on FX. According to Heather’s MySpace, there is a preview up on Fancast, but I can’t get it to play. Perhaps you can.

Heather’s post-reality resume continues to grow (so to the haters: ha!). She appeared on a recent episode of Californication and is set to appear in a the indie drama Sandy Creek Girls. You can read about her other appearances on her MySpace. She’s certainly getting her face out there — how many of her peers can you say that about?

And lest you think Heather is packing up reality for scripted fare, she tells us that she is working on a reality show with two other Rock of Love girls. She won’t get into specifics this early in the game, which come to think of it, is very Hollywood of her.

Check out two more shots of Heather on the Sunny set below and remember to tune in Thursday! [via ONTD - Thanks to Brenda for the tip!]

This news has been around for a while, but a few comments on yesterday’s post about Daisy de la Hoya’s recent birthday celebration reminded us of the unsettled resolution of Daisy of Love. So get ready for it, because this stuff is so resolved, it’s like upholstery.

In a MySpace blog post that was deleted and then re-posted, Daisy gives the rundown on her status with London. She says she fell in love with him on the first day of filming, and after the show wrapped, she had high hopes that “we could have been the first ‘real’ couple to actually be in love off of one of these shows.” It all went well…until Daisy found out that London had gotten a girl pregnant recently enough that it was still an issue. Writes Daisy: “He insisted that he was in love, that I was his perfect girl, he would do anything to make it work, that it was all a mistake. And That He was Going To ‘fix’ it. Well Because he’s a broke ass artist he couldn’t ‘fix’ it… then he tells me she had a miscarriage… then he told me she was giving it up for adoption.. the lies just went on and on… But still I stood by hes side…”
