Ask your average schlub what VH1’s most celebrated body part is, and he’d tell you “boobs,” thanks to the sea of silicone this network has sailed on for the past three or so years. But times are changing! Repeatedly, VH1’s reality programming has shown love for feet (and the men who love them), boldly venturing into an area of kink that few networks would. (In fact, the only bit of resistance to feet in recent memory was Flavor Flav’s break down over Grayvee’s offering of pigs’ feet on Flavor of Love 3. And Flav is…you know, Flav.) With this week’s premiere of Let’s Talk About Pep featuring toes that “taste like meatloaf,” we thought it was time to collect the instances of foot worship that have helped give this network a leg up on its peers:

Yesterday, we received an email that was bizarre both for its content and syntax (it included a lot of arbitrary spacing, as in: “Siste r Patte rson is looki ng for talen ted peopl e that can sing , dance and play all types of music”). Did you get that, by the way? New York’s mom wants to start a band for no apparent reason! Just a whim! And you know how whimsical this woman can be! Below is the full text of the email with the spacing fixed (but nothing else so you can really soak up its essence):

Hello World, Sister Patterson is looking for talented people that can sing , dance and play all types of musical instruments to be a part of her new vocal group. You must be willing to travel, and be very flexible with scheduling. Legal to work in any situation. Pass a back round check. If you are addicted to any kind of drugs, alcohol and or medication please don’ t bother. This will be Sister Patterson’s group! and if you can’ t take her being the leader stay home! We are not sure when this group will start but please stay ready. Do not call or write Sister Patterson about how talented you are, or who you have song with in the past. You must be able to come to all rehearsals even if this means moving from your home town. please send a video to Sister Patterson’ s myspace page. She would love to see if you have what it takes to be a part of her new singing group, please include all of your home info and phone number on the video.

God Bless.

Even if nothing comes of this band, and even if this email is a total hoax, it’s seriously the most entertaining thing we’ve seen this week. That alone makes it all worth it.

You may or may not know that Ezra “Buddha” Masters, the man who was a Tailor Made away from winning New York’s heart on I Love New York 2, occasionally appears on the erotic cable series Zane’s Sex Chronicles. In the clip below, our boy keeps the skin in Skinemax, baring his butt in a sex scene at around the 2:27 mark. This video seems to have been recorded off TV via camcorder, but it is clear nonetheless. That is to say his full moon shines bright, so this NSFW…unless you happen to work in an underwear factory.

Note, that video’s been deleted, but you can catch Buddha’s Zane reel below. No more butt, though.

It shouldn’t surprise you at all that VH1’s eternal H.B.I.C., New York, has less-than-kind things to say about former I Love New York 2 contestant Punk’s engagement to the gay-icon-in-the-making diva Jennifer Hudson. But what may surprise you is why she’s wary about the pairing — it basically boils down to her suspicion that Jennifer is Punk’s personal gay icon. She recently told In Touch:

“He’s really loving being Mr. Jennifer Hudson. I think he’s loving the lavish things she brings to his life, he’s seeing the world due to Jennifer’s success. [But] can you love this person if they lose all of this tomorrow? She needs to find out. I just hope people are marrying each other for the right reasons…It’s a mixed match, it won’t work. He’ll be in her shadow like Al Reynolds was to Star Jones, like Stedman Graham is to Oprah…When we were in Miami together, he didn’t even try anything [on me]! Maybe I wasn’t his type, maybe I wasn’t big enough for him.”

The true test, of course, will be Punk’s response to this, if any. If it’s catty, New York really might be onto something. [Defamer]

Last week, we presented New York on the record talking about her breakup with I Love New York 2 winner Tailor Made. Tailor Made, in turn, has spoken out with his perception of what went wrong. As he told SOHH.com:

“We’re just very different people. The same things that I’m very attracted to in her are the same things that made a relationship with her difficult. She’s very emotionally volatile, very passionate, which is great but at the same time that can present a challenge in a relationship. We’re good friends. She’s definitely a sweetheart but I just think we weren’t very compatible. I still wish her the best and I think she’s going to be very successful with her acting career.”

So there you have it: irreconcilable differences. That’s it? For something involving New York, this seems decidedly non-dramatic. It’s almost a let-down. We’ll get to watch their breakup play out this season on New York Goes to Hollywood. Fingers crossed for broken dishes! [SOHH.com]

VH1 Blog’s Exclusive Audio Interview with New York

Wow - we never expected this one, but maybe there’s a love match to be found between two former reality stars!

The blog even has a few pics of the two appearing in public together-ish, meaning J-Hud is getting snapped for the paps while Punk lurks mysteriously in the background. What do you think - weird coincidence, or true love?

5. Mud Makes Flav Horny

Don’t tell Black, Sinceer and Thing 2, but Flav once got busy back in the day with his other final ladies on the first season of Flavor of Love. This sexy moment came to fruition after Pumkin, Hoopz and your man spent a date body painting with mud at a day spa. But the follow-up shower was where all the action went down, after the gals washed off the mud and went in for the kill! You can almost hear the words coming out of Flav’s mouth: “Yeahhhhhhh boooooooy!”

Below the jump: girl-on-girl action, a sexy stripper, a romp to remember, and our Number 1 pick!

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!

In case last week’s announcement of New York Goes to Hollywood confused you (it stated that, “New York has to put her last conquest, Tailor Made, on the backburner as she tries to take on Tinsel Town”), New York’s man has told People.com that he and the reality diva are still going strong:

Tiffany and I are very happy together. We will make this work…I have so much respect for Tiffany and support her career. She is very talented and has a great future as an actress.

He adds, “I’ll visit her as much as I can.” At least we’ll get to watch, and see if their romance can continue to play out via cameos. [TV Watch/People]

If you know New York, you know that a little thing like love couldn’t keep her away from reality TV for long. VH1’s own H.B.I.C. is branching out for New York Goes to Hollywood, a situation-based reality series to air later this year…and she may be flying solo again. The press release provides a few details:

New York is ready to tackle her other life dream: superstardom. Don’t get it wrong - New York is already a star but she wants to be on the A-list – as a legit actress.

In order to focus on her new mission, New York has to put her last conquest, Tailor Made, on the backburner as she tries to take on Tinsel Town. She’s moving out west to see if she can climb the Hollywood ladder. Question is, will she reach for the stars or fall flat on her face?

And that’s not all: Celebreality series starring Brooke Hogan, comedian Margaret Cho and 2 Live Crew mastermind Luther Campbell are also on the way. Press releases follow:
