On the premiere episode of I Love Money 2 the teams were formed, leaving Tamara to bounce in reality TV fashion. The latest episode begins where the last left off: the day after teams were chosen. Entertainer was still heated about Buddha being in the game. Buddha was still glad to be in the game and felt his team was the strongest. Double Agents are proven to kill a team as Onyx was on the Green Team yet still aligned with Entertainer and Heat. Love then came into the show as Leilene told Buddha that she has a crush on him. Saaphyri said it best by saying its “I Love Money” not “I Love Love”. You have to put it to Saaphyri for saying it how it is and well, hopefully she’ll be doing that the entire show. Buckwild wasn’t too happy with Buddha’s fake love for Leilene. Seems friends could be split over love, once again, as the next challenge was about to begin.
With a new challenge it was time to pick a new captain. Myammee was chosen for the Green Team while Heat was chosen for the Gold team. As the teams pulled into a marina it was time for a suspended boxing match similar to the mattress brawl last season. The challenge was based upon the moment in I Love NY history where Boston went over the boxing ring. Here the teams fought in a floating ring where the first person to fall to the ground would lose while the other would gain a point for their team. Best out of seven won. First up was the match up of the season, so far, as Entertainer and Buddha faced off. Entertainer was first down to the ground and lost for the Gold Team. That left Buddha winning, although he did throw a few illegal kicks out there. Next up was Ice vs Tailor Made with Ice going down first. That made things tied up going into the third round.

On the last I Love Money a love triangle forced the game into more drama then its seen before. But on the latest outing the show went overboard with maneuvers and game play never seen before on a VH1 show. I’m surprised how much like Survivor and Big Brother the show is becoming and its adding a lot to it for sure. When the next morning after Heat’s removal comes, 12 Pack realizes his best friend is gone and it forces him to play the game. He decides to align with over half the other team, asking them to throw the challenge and he’ll vote out White Boy. 12 Pack knows, or thinks he knows, that he can do this since he wants to be captain for the next round. After approaching Boston, Brandi and Megan, 12 Pack’s plan gets a green light as they agree to align and agree to throw the challenge to get their teammate Whiteboy out of the house.
When the house gets the call for the challenge the captains are locked in. 12 Pack is easily chosen for the Gold Team while Chance steps up as captain for the Green Team. At a local soccer course the challenge is explained and everyone learns that Hottie’s stupidity is the basis of the challenge. On the Flavor of Love the girls were asked to cook an entire chicken for Flave’s mom. Hottie was the only one to microwave her chicken, causing a bit of a salmonella issue as it wasn’t cooked….. at all. For I Love Money that moment was fitted to a chicken capitulate mission that was split into two parts. After three teammates put together the catapult, the remaining four would have to catch five chickens using aprons. The first team to get five chickens on the dinner table would win and send one of the opposing members house.
On the Green Team the challenge throwing started early with Boston and Megan being two of the three members to build the catapult. They worked, or lack therefore, with Chance who basically put the catapult together himself. Over on the Gold Team was 12 Pack, Pumpkin and Toastee putting together the catapult. They worked well together and quickly put their slinging machine together, just as they planned it. While the Gold Team slung their chickens into the air, quickly catching three, the Green Team finally got theirs together. After quickly catching two it was obvious the plan might fail but Boston secretly screwed up a few chickens, forcing the team to go down hill from there. In the end the Gold Team just squeaked out a win. The only interesting part from the catchers was Rodeo getting slapped in the face by a flying chicken. She laughed it off with her famous cackle but since they won she didn’t seem to care too much.
Since the plan went as well…. planned most of the Green Team were happy with the loss. Only the Stallionaires were a bit angry and WhiteBoy seemed to realize the challenge was thrown. Chance and Whiteboy then went to intimidate Boston, hoping he would reveal their plan but he played sick, once again, and they left him alone after a few pranks. Once the two guys left him alone, Boston decided to celebrate with Brandi who just happened to be showering at the time. She didn’t like Boston joining her and it ended with a scream from Brandi and a laugh from Megan who was standing just outside.
While Brandi and Boston spent some not so fun time in the shower, Whiteboy took the time to talk to to Megan and wanted to see if the team threw the challenge. She says that she didn’t throw it but Whiteboy sees through her. He knows he’s on the chopping block and tried to make Megan realize that they had to keep the strong. That little chat seemed to flop Brandi’s thoughts as she agreed with him and agreed to Boston, Brandi and Destiney going up on the chopping block. The two then created a new alliance but if Brandi pulled through Whiteboy would have to do the same for her next time. Not sure exactly how that would happen since if Brandi doesn’t go into the Box next time then Whiteboy will have to put a stallionare in there. I really don’t see that happening.
The next morning Megan warns Brandi but basically told her to put herself in the box. She didn’t say much and just agreed to it but Boston didn’t. When Brandi told Boston that he may go in he didn’t take it to easily and wondered why she was going against the plan. When it was time to go into the vault, everyone voted for Boston/Brandi/Destiney to be up for elimination. Although Destiney and Brandi took the news easily, Boston didn’t. He grabbed his check in hopes of running the 15 minute time limit out and he almost pulled through with it. Following that little spat from Boston, Brandi easily put her check in while Destiney wouldn’t do it. Whiteboy grabbed at Boston, forcing the host to come in to stop any type of fight. After Destiney puts hers in more drama goes down as Boston still won’t put his in. With only 54 seconds left the check goes in the box and all hell breaks loose. Boston freaks on everyone, screaming at both Megan and Brandi. It wasn’t pretty and is hands down one of the biggest freak outs of any VH1 show.
Following the reveal of the three nominees to the Green Team Boston wanted to leave but its 12 Pack and the power outing that makes him stay. After crying for a few minutes he gave in and went to lunch. All 12 Pack wanted to do was find out who turned on who and he jumped right into things. While the girls were giving their side of the story Boston moved away from the table but he had a reason to. Brandi revealed she was the one who turned by voting for Boston and t seems pretty clear she’ll be going home. When he could choose one person to spend time with 12 Pack chose Boston. The two are friends and he trust Boston but his actions seem kind of strange to him. One thing came from the chat and that was Boston didn’t vote for WhiteBoy, which could have possibly saved him as Destiney also had three.
Back at the house 12 Pack called a team meeting to see who his team wanted to be kicked out. Although he wanted a team vote, 12 Pack revealed that he gave Destiney his word to keep her in. Pumpkin and Toastee didn’t agree with that as he wanted a team vote yet wouldn’t vote out Destiney if they wanted to. They claim that he wanted to vote out the biggest competitor out of the three and his mind flips when he realizes that. Pumpkin realizes that 12 Pack wants to keep Destiney as she’s “dating” Entertainer and flips out in her normal way. After slamming the door about 20 times Pumpkin pulls out another famous quote which I won’t mention here in hopes of keeping this as PG as possible.
At the elimination it was time for 12 Pack to choose either Brandi, Boston or Destiney to bounce. When allowed to give a few words before 12 Pack chose, Brandi opened up about throwing the challenge. Boston didn’t reveal at first that he threw the challenge but after Brandi told everyone about the plan Boston opened up to say that Megan was involved as well. The two kiddies, Brandi and Boston, continued to fight calling each other names which kind of caused 12 Pack to give Destiney her check first. With that there were two left to go: Brandi and Boston. In the end 12 Pack chose to save Brandi, forcing Boston’s check to bounce. Although the two were friends it is a game and Boston was forced to leave the mansion and the game.

After last weeks crazy I Love Money it was time to jump right into the next challenge. Both teams had to shift team captains and Entertainer and Boston were chosen for their teams. What they had to do was choose pairs for the challenge which was an eating challenge. Well at least they THOUGHT they were going to be eating things. What they actually had to do was kiss. Ultimately they had a “kiss off” where the last couple kissing would win. For the gold team the teams were as follows: Rodeo/Hoopz, Heather/12 Pack, Toastee/Pumpkin with Entertainer being by himself. Boston took a different approach and put the teams based on who would and wouldn’t eat the food. Heat/Destiny, Meagan/White Boy, Brandi/Real and Boston/Chance were the teams for the green team.
Following the little announcement that it would be a kiss off everyone laughed that Boston and Chance would have to be kissing. Rodeo did her famous laugh along with everyone else who just freaked out about it. The host then gave the rules and basically whoever kept their lips locked the longest won for their team. One small rule was then given, everyone HAD to be kissing when the time started which means that if Boston/Chance didn’t even start kissing the whole team would lose. Heather opened her mouth to tell Chance that he’d be on TV forever kissing Boston, she even through in a “Best Week Ever” plug. Chance didn’t like this too much but the countdown started to begin. It all came down to Chance and Boston and Chance wouldn’t go through with it, losing the entire challenge for the green team.
Chance then went off on Heat who threw a towel on him. It kind of ruined the Gold Teams win but of course its a VH1 show so there HAS to be a major fight sometime. Destiney then got into the fight for sticking up for Heat. Chance didn’t like it too much as they went off on each other for a bit. Since Heat didn’t defend Destiney back the crying then continued and Entertainer jumped in to grab his “girl”. In the end Entertainer was given the power to kick one of the green team members out. It was a quick challenge but Entertainer sure took the leadership role to his head.
When the group got back to the house Destiney told Heat how she felt that he didn’t stick up for her. Entertainer then moved in once again and told Destiney how he stood up for her when Heat didn’t. The two then spent some time in the pool and apparently they are “dating” now. Another breakup/romance then began between 12 Pack and Meagan. He told her that he’d keep her safe, along with Boston and Meagan leaned in for a kiss knowing that it would screw up the Gold Team. While Heather was floating in the pool 12 Pack decided to flirt with Meagan. Heather and Meagan then had a chat about the flirting and Heather let everyone know what he’s been doing. Well all the girls at least. When she finally confronted 12 Pack, Entertainer was sitting there and realized that Megan has to go. He felt that she was a trouble starter and if she’s in the box she’ll probably end up going.
The next morning the Green Team entered the vault for the first time to enter three teams into the lock box. The three in the box would be up for elimination and it was surely going to be a crazy one. It was then up for a vote and everyone decided that Chance, Real and White Boy should go into the box. The three guys didn’t agree with that and wanted two girls and Heat in the box. In the end nobodies name were in the box after the fifteen minutes so the Entertainer got to choose three names to go in for their team. In the end the Gold Team chose Megan, Heat and Mr. Boston.
Following the Vault meeting Entertainer was sent on a Power Outing with the three he put into the box. For their outing they went out to heat and out for some wine tasting. None of the three really talked that much but Boston tried to play a Toastee. He pretended to act sick and “threw up”. He puked the entire time they were at the eatery and Megan cracked up the entire time. It was kind of obvious that he was faking although he was blowing chunks. Megan really didn’t take the chance to talk though as she knew that Entertainer wanted to send her home. She told him that she knew he didn’t like her and he told her he’d love to send her home.
Back at the house White Boy was trying to send Heat home as he told Entertainer that Destiney still had feelings for Heat. When it came time for the elimination to occur the three stood in front of the Entertainer who had all the power. Before he chose who went Entertainer chose Boston to stay since he looked like a wreck at the power outing. Both Heat and Megan felt they were leaving but Heat was the one who was sent packing since he was dating Destiney and now he is so he had to go. Something like that, I think. Although Entertainer saved Megan he still doesn’t like her. Um maybe he doesn’t but she’s sure like able across the TV!

Last week I Love Money showed just how trashy Reality TV could get and this week was no different. Things began rather quickly as the teams were forced to choose new team captains before the challenge began. They were also told that the losing team would have to nominate three people for elimination which will make things ugly. For the green team Chance wanted to be the next captain. Nobody really anything against it, even though he gave u last round, so Chance became the new Green Team captain. On the Gold Team everyone agreed that Rodeo should be the one to lead. It was rather simple and the Gold Team seems to be on track. They bonded and realized they had a strong team, except for Pumpkin and Toastee. Although Rodeo didn’t like that she was still in high spirits. On the Green Team things were in some shambles so Destiny stood up and got the group together. Of course nothing really came from it as the team seems to be most of the crazy bunch.
Apparently the crazy bunch decided to make a good move since Destiney took over the Team Leader position from Chance. He didn’t seem to be too mad, maybe he does need ritalin like Boston said. It was then time for their first challenge it was based off of Sapharyii’s famous bed battle from Flavor of Love 2. The object of the challenge was to knock your opponent off the flying bed in the air or to make them go across a certain point. Going across this point will force their side of the bed to give out and leave them plummeting to the water. Another aspect to the show was also revealed called the Pay Master. The Team Leader of the winning team will become the “Pay Master” and get to choose the person who leaves from the losing team.
I must say the show is using its own fights to its advantage in thinking up challenges and its rather amusing. Since the captains got to see who the other team chose first over other round this meant guys could go against girls which is odd for a challenge like this. Since Rodeo won the coin flip Destiney had to choose first. Destiney chose White Boy and Rodeo sent in 12 Pack for the first round. Surprisingly Whiteboy won since 12 Pack was DQed, giving Green one point to start. Next up was Entertainer vs Heat. During the battle both guys were passing out from smokers lunch but in the end Gold got a point as Heat’s stick got knocked out of the ring. This left the odds even 1 to 1 for Real and Hoopz to the first guy/girl battle. Once again Green drops their stick but Real didn’t care since he got to share some bedtime love with Hoopz.
It was then time for Round Four and we had some drama as Nibblz wanted to go in but Rodeo picked herself. Destiney chose Chance to go up against the crazy cowgirl and it was time for a showdown. Chance quickly knocked Rodeo in the head and her head gets caught in the rope. Megan didn’t care but Chance showed his humanitarian side to help her out now its sudden death time and its up to Boston and Nibblz to take home the win for their team. Nibblz used her “Jedi Mind Tricks” to stare him down but Boston fought back and after getting off balance Boston takes out Nibblz, giving the Green Team the first win of the season. Who would have thought Boston would bring home a win? Seriously?
Because the Gold Team lost they then had to put three people up to leave. Destiney, in return for being the Green Team’s leader, will get to choose which of those three gets “bounced”. Back at the house Pumpkin was worried that she would be sent home if in the bottom three since Megan & Destiney are friends and Megan hates Pumpkin. Inside the vault the Gold Team had to choose which three would go into the Box and up for elimination. They had 15 minutes and if they couldn’t decide within that time the Green Team would get to decide for them. Rodeo picked up the checks she thought should go and Nibblz, Pumpkin and Toastee ended up going in. Most agreed with the decisions, except for Pumpkin and Toastee, who cried their eyes out the whole time.
The host then introduced the “Power Outing” which basically lets the three up for elimination go on a date with the Pay Master. Before they went on their dates Pumpkin and Toastee decided to work together to get Nibblz out of the game. They wanted to make themselves seem weak and in return make Nibblz seem like the stronger of the three. The outing was a trip to a Mexican Restaurant with dancers who taught the girls to dance. Toastee used chance to get “hurt” and “sprain her ankle”. She wanted Destiney to make her think she was hurt and it seemed to work.
Destiney then took the time to talk to the three girls and that is Pumpkin strongest point: her mouth. She told Destiney how she’s the weakest on the team while Nibblz kept saying how fit and strong she is. The two girls, Toastee and Pumpkin, told Destiney that they will have her back if Nibblz is sent home and she may just buy it. While at dinner the girls got a envelope which allowed Destiney to choose one person to spend some along time with, that would be Pumpkin. She told Pumpkin that she was in better shape she thought and Pumpkin took the time to “reveal” she had an eating disorder. She claims to be 200 pounds at one point but apparently it was all an lie and could have kept her in the game.
Back at the house Toastee kept up her ankle lie and realized she had to keep the lie up for awhile to make it believable. Destiney seems to have at least buy it for now as she felt bad for Toastee and it made her realize how it may be better to get rid of the stronger players which led to the elimination. Destiney stood in front of the three girls and had to say the one person who would stay first. By choosing Pumpkin this left Nibblz and Toastee still on the bubble to leave. In the end Toastee’s lie paid off as Nibblz check was voided, bouncing her out of the game. Next week it seems the fighting begins as two relationships form and crumble all in the same episode.

I Love Money may not be the most sophisticated of reality shows but oh will it be insane! With the craziest all stars from your favorite VH1 reality shows it’s sure to be good as they take on competitions similar to the MTV challenge shows. It seems like all the reality staples are here for it to be an amazing show and hopefully it doesn’t disappoint! With Pumkin, Heather and Midget Mac you can’t go wrong!
It seems their first challenge wasn’t even a challenge as half of them couldn’t even get off the boat without even getting wet. Midget Mac has a flashback moment as he has to get in the water, once again, and we all know what happened last time he did that. 12 Pack came to his rescue though and picked him off the boat, giving him a reprieve from drowning this time.
Next up they all met their host, CJ and tells them they are playing for $250,000. Everyone then ran into the house and sprinted for their beds. It seems Nibblz and Toastee have some beef while Toastee has an ally with Pumpkin. Another alliance is 12 Pack and Heat, who have the “party boyz” alliance. Heather and Destiney became friends in Rock of Love 2 and are a perfect alliance in my eyes. The two groups then combined and formed the 12 Pack/Heat/Destiney/Heather alliance, I think I’ll barf now. Whiteboy then tells us that he and Chance/Real grouped together as well.
One thing was then realized as there are 17 people in the game while only 16 beds. Boston was the one without a bed and wanted to share with Toastee, who seemed to just laugh it off. He went to a few others who basically ran away from his offer as well. When CJ returned to the house everyone was given a check for $250,000. We all know they won’t all get it but at least its fun to see them skwirm. They are using the checks to eliminate the players similar to clocks and chains in other VH1 shows.
While they were doing the checks drama began already. Meagan told Pumpkin she had “saggy boobs” after she said she would buy new boobs. They yelling began since Pumpkin wanted people to know she was “ghetto”. Heather on the other hand wanted to remove something, her Brett Michael’s tattoo. Others wanted to help their family, which was nice. But I highly doubt ANY of these people will give money to their family.
It was then game time as the players had to be divided into teams. The news was then revealed that someone would be leaving that night, duh. Bikini’s were then given to everyone to wear… both guys and girls. It was a bit disgusting but what else would you want from VH1? Midget Mac was the only one to not put on the suit which angered Hoopz a bit. He called a word I can’t mention here but it sure did cause a ruckus as he continued to go off on all the girls.
The first challenge then took place to find the two team captains. The two people who could catch the most money in the Money Booth would became the team captains, choose the two teams and also would be safe from being “bounced”. Midget Mac still wouldn’t do the challenge, after babbling a bit, and it was time to begin. Meagan and Brandi C got DQed first since they took the money from the floor. Needless to say nobody else did that then. In the end Hoopz and Whiteboy became the largest money grabbers and became the two team captains.
Everyone was then given a few hours to decide how the teams would go down. Hoopz used the time wisely to see who wanted to be on her team while Boston went around and talked to both Whiteboy and Hoopz to make sure he wasn’t the one going home. With Whiteboy he worked the Jewish angle while he worked the “charm” angle with Hoopz. Not sure how well it worked but who knows. Meagan on the other hand wanted to be on Hoopz’s team but of course that wouldn’t work since Hoopz will obviously pick Pumpkin. Since she knew that was out she had to work on Whiteboy to make sure she didn’t get kicked out first. Nibblz has her own strategy, to lay low and talk on the phone. Not sure if that will work considering how many people can’t stand her lisp to begin with.
Midget Mac then continued his downward spiral by not saying sorry to Brandi. Although Rodeo tried to help him do so, he wouldn’t and it put him even more on the chopping block to leave. With that it was time for the team picking and bouncing to take place. Hoopz and Whiteboy got to choose their teams pick’em style with Hoopz being first. In the end the teams ended up as follows: Hoopzs’ team – Rodeo, 12 Pack, Entertainer, Heather, Toastee, Pumkin, Nibblz / Whiteboy’s team – Chance, Real, Boston, Heat, Destiney, Meagan, Brandi. That means that Midget Mac is the one getting bounced first. He kind of deserves it though, considering he gave up not once but twice! I Love Money sure seems to be one of the craziest, trashiest and hilarious Reality TV shows in a LONG time. And that’s why I think so many people are going to love it!
