If this news doesn’t make you throw an apple up in the air while wearing a cowboy hat and balancing one foot on an exercise ball, I don’t know what will! Remember how Rock of Love‘s Cindy “Rodeo” Steedle was arrested last October at an Atlanta nightclub for allegedly stealing her ex-boyfriend’s car and gun safe? No? Well it happened and now we can emphasize that “allegedly,” because the charges have been dropped. Per a press release from her manager:

We are pleased to announce Cindy “Rodeo” Steedle received a letter from the Henry County Superior Court (Georgia) dated Thursday, January 13, 2011, stating the District Attorney has dismissed all charges against Cindy related to an outstanding warrant and arrest that occurred on October 14, 2010 in Atlanta, Georgia.

Cindy “Rodeo” Steedle was arrested at an Atlanta event while promoting Rock of Love Girls: Where Are They Now. The arrest was over a warrant for allegedly stealing her ex-boyfriend’s personal property.

After months of investigation, it’s apparent the prosecutors dropped the charges against Cindy due to insufficient proof. Cindy stated all along these allegations were completely unfounded.
We were confident the charges would be dismissed in a timely fashion and Cindy’s name would be cleared.

Now that this ordeal is behind her, Cindy will continue to move forward with her career and focus on her new talk show, The Voice, which is in development and set to launch in 2011.

There’s nothing left to say but: YEE HAW!!!

TMZ says that Cindy “Rodeo” Steedle of Rock of Love/I Love Money/Charm School, whose laugh still rings in our heads and hearts, recently filed a police report against Lindsay Lohan’s father, Michael Lohan. Apparently, Rodeo alleges that Michael assaulted her while they filmed a reality show together (!!!) — she supposedly aroused his ire after complaining about not getting paid. She also claims in a letter that he “brushed his hand on my lower bottom.” Michael denies the claims, saying, “Anyone in the house will tell you that she is lying. I’d rather touch a hot stove, rather than her.” We have no idea what they could have been filming or how this will play out, but we can’t wait to see either! [TMZ]

There’s an AP article on the changing face of VH1 titled, “VH1′s New Black Image: ‘Trading Trampiness For Fabulousness’” that focuses on What Chilli Wants specfically and VH1′s new crop of shows generally. The article attributes a statement from VH1 Executive Vice President Jeff Olde on the much-asked-about the filmed-but-as-yet-unaired third and fourth seasons of I Love Money. Here’s the full quote:

“Olde confirms that I Love Money 3, featuring murder suspect and suicide victim Ryan Jenkins, as well as the Jenkins-free I Love Money 4 won’t air.”

For the many who’ve commented on this blog asking about that show, there’s your answer. [AP/Huffington Post]

If you’ve been wondering what Heather from Rock of Love/I Love Money/Rock of Love Charm School has been up to, wonder no more: watch her swaying along and preparing tomato sauce in the video above for Donnie Athens’ “The Good Life.”

Heather’s also on Twitter, FYI.

Complex recently compiled its list of the 50 Hottest Reality TV Girls, and impressively, women affiliated with VH1 take up a dozen of the slots. Of that dozen, half of the girls are from For the Love of Ray J (the most represented show on the countdown, alongside The Real World — keep in mind though, that show has had 24 seasons, while Ray J has had two). Among the hotties are Danger (No. 42), Mz Berry (No. 32), Caviar (No. 30), Luscious (No. 22), Chardonnay (No. 18) and Cashmere (No. 14). The other VH1 girls are Viva Hollywood‘s Jenn Pinto (No. 44), The White Rapper Show‘s Misfit (No. 40), Myammee (No. 39), Deelishis (No. 29), Hoopz (No. 10) and Adrianne Curry (No. 8).

So, what do you think: is For the Love of Ray J a babe magnet of a reality show? According to the list, it’s turned out twice as many of reality TV’s hottest as America’s Next Top Model. In fact, my favorite thing about this list is that ANTM is represented as much as Flavor of Love (both come up three times). That is two giant orbiting balls of “Wooooooooow!” and LOOOOOOOOOOOOL! And I know that Complex skews “urban,” but damn son, where’s the love for Rock of Love? No honorable mention even, for that show’s willingness to constantly put itself out there (via silicone and…other stuff)? [Complex via ONTD]

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!]
