Paradise Hotel 2
2 Comments
Back we go into Paradise Hotel 2 with more and more drama. With the new girl Myrna fully into the game, it’s time for a girl to leave and that has put all of them on edge. It’s obvious that the hotel is split pretty equally as TD joins the new people to go against the “OG” or originals. TD is probably in the best position now if she’d only keep her mouth shut. Get gets into a fight with Tanya as the show opens. Tanya and a few of the originals were talking about God knows what when TD blurts out something to affect of “I’m not involved because I’m black”. That single comment sends Tanya off as she tries to tell TD that nothing had to deal with race. Mike, Tanya’s boyfriends, doesn’t defend her but rather stays neutral, annoying Tanya who ends up crying because of it.
The drama then turned to a more lighter note with Lauren and Krista taking a few strolls through paradise. As they chat they come across a few of the new people and make snarky remarks under their breath. It’s funny to see people dislike each other simply because they are ‘new’ or ‘originals’. It’s a strange dynamic but continues to add drama to the show.
Since this is an elimination episode it was time for a Pandora’s Box. Everyone basically had questions that tried to break up couples but Krista took it the worst. She was asked by she is a troll and becomes happy whenever someone rubs her stomach, basically saying she clings to whoever will keep her in the game. None of the originals, besides TD, liked the question too much and Krista even asked the person to reveal that they wrote the question. Nobody would but later we found out that it was Aaron once again causing trouble. He also angered Myrna a bit at Pandora’s by basically saying she was a dancer/stripper when asked how she earned her money. Sadly it didn’t sway Myrna to go with the originals which I was really hoping for.
As elimination approached, TD began to become closer to Chris. Everyone is thinking its just her game play to get the newbies on her side, and that might be true. She won’t get close to Chris in a romantic way and basically runs away whenever he tries to. She wouldn’t even pick him for a roommate in the end and denied his request to spend a night in her room. Who knows what will happen with these two, it should be interesting.
When it came down to eliminate one of the girls it seemed like Myrna would have all the power. She entered the pool side ceremony standing in last place, but Amanda the host told her she wouldn’t be selecting her roommate last. Amanda quickly called Myrna to the front and told her to select the first roommate. It was kind of nerve racking because whoever she chose would basically decide who went home anyway and wow did she sure select the one person that would affect the night the most. By choosing Mike, Tanya’s boyfriend, she basically secured that Tanya would be leaving. But we shall play out the selections since they are still rather interesting.
Krista was up first after Myrna chose Mike. She quickly went to James, her comfortable roommate. They’ve been together for awhile now and I have a feeling they will make it to the end or close to it. TD was up next and surprisingly went to Aaron rather then Chris. I was shocked she did this as she’s been playing Chris the entire time; selecting him would have sealed it for her. Next up was Stephanie who then went to Chris as she knew he would keep her safe. Had Ryan played it right he could have sent Stephanie home, but no he was too drunk to think of a plan. That left Lauren and Tanya left without a roommate and only Ryan left to choose. Tanya was the next to go and knew whoever she chose would probably send her home as Mike couldn’t be selected. She moved around the chairs carefully and in the end chose Chris. Stephanie had already chose Chris but Tanya felt that was her only choice who would possibly keep her in the game. Lauren went last and obviously chose Ryan as he was the only one left without a roommate.
It was then all down to Chris. I knew he would choose Stephanie to stay but the way her worded it it just seemed possible that he would choose Tanya. Sadly he went with the obvious and chose Stephanie as his roommate, allowing Tanya to take one for the team. She left with a heartfelt goodbye to everyone, including Myrna, but promised that she would have a hard week thanks to her choice. Her and Mike then separated but who knows what Paradise has in store. May Tanya return? It’s happened before so who knows.
Next week they are promising a huge shake up in the game as someone returns who the hotel guests already know. My guess is that Johnny returns as the “new guy” since he was voted out a few weeks ago rather then being sent home thanks to the roommate selection. It should be interesting if that’s who is really as since he could go either way with the originals or the newbies.

Paradise Hotel 2
No Comments
With our little trouble maker Raheim gone I wasn’t sure if the others could hold there own. But we seem to have a new trouble, or rather ‘drunk’ trouble starter in Ryan who basically stole the show and was the center of everything. First things first though, the new girl. Myrna entered the hotel as a ‘fashion designer from LA’ who just happens to be Asian. Apparently Mikey, the guy who has been clung to Tanya since day one, loves Asians so I’m sure producers put Myrna in there to try and break up the love birds. I personally don’t see that happenin
g.
Myrna seems to be straight from the valley as every last syllable of every sentence lingers on for at least 3 seconds. She says like about twenty time every five minutes and I swear she said ‘totally’ sometime during the show! Myrna doesn’t seem to have any clue what she got herself into and didn’t seem comfortable at all on the show. I guess you always need a ‘fake’ person on a reality show and I believe she may just be the first one on Paradise Hotel 2 who actually acts fake. Of course they are mostly all there to get famous, but I think she knows she’s there to get famous and isn’t hiding it one bit.
After picking Aaron in the “Mr. Paradise Hotel” contest, Myrna got to spend some time with him at dinner where he basically begged her to join his alliance with Chris, TD and Stephanie. After some small talk Aaron got straight to the point, telling Myrna “It’s me or Chris going home next if you stick with the originals, and you’ll be gone short after.” Hmm sure weren’t waiting for the right moment were you Aaron? When they got back at the hotel it was time for drinking of course! Ryan, once again, got a little tipsy and officially took over for Raheim. After he told Myrna that he was told she likes guys with real jobs (Ryan is a lifeguard don’t forget) the two got into a little tiff. It was more against him and Tanya I guess since she took Myrna’s side instead of Ryan’s and that didn’t make him too happy. He went straight into tell Mikey what Tanya said, which backfired of course. Now why would you tell the guy who is ‘crushing’ Tanya that she is ’stupid’? Oh I forgot, he was drunk out of his mind!
The next day more drama went down and it’s basically Ryan’s fault as well. Lauren was told by Ryan that Stephanie and Aaron kissed, so she asked Aaron if they did and he denied it. Aaron once again used his bad timing skills to run down and tell Stephanie that Lauren was spreading rumors that they hooked up. As Stephanie floated in the pool, she told Lauren that she never kissed Aaron. Lauren wasn’t too happy that Aaron let the cat out of the bag and said, right in front of Stephanie, that Aaron should leave. But here is where Lauren was smart. Instead of waiting for Stephanie to tell Aaron, she went and told him herself. He wasn’t too fond of the comment and let it slide for now.
It was the time for the official twist of the episode. New girl Myrna was to have a one-on-one conversation with each of the guests at Paradise. After sitting through a boring 10 minute segment of her talking, and once again looking very fake and uncomfortable, we finally got to the good stuff. Myrna got to choose new roommates for each of the guests, basically making the night where they actually chose roommates pointless. She used a good strategy in my part in choosing people who don’t get along. James and Krista were paired up, once again, so I’m sure that will help them. Tanya and Chris being paired up wasn’t too exciting either as both of them haven’t really connected it seems.
The interesting pairings were the next few. TD and Mikey were paired up. In their one-on-one Mikey told Myrna that TD should be the next to go. Let’s hope she finds out so we can see some brawling going down between TD and Tanya! Another interesting pairing is Ryan with Stephanie. Both have ‘finger painted’ together a few times this season yet the feeling isn’t mutual. Stephanie is loving Ryan just a little more then he loves her. He basically calls her a one night stand and actually wants her to be the next to go. Hopefully Myrna spills those beans and Stephanie has a classic freak out! The one that I find most interesting and brilliantly done by Myrna is the pairing of Lauren and Aaron. As I said before, they HATE each other, so it should be very amusing to see how they react when they have to live together. Next time it seems like Stephanie does find out Ryan’s true feelings. Hopefully she freaks out as expected and goes down in crazy reality girl history!

Paradise Hotel 2
No Comments
Paradise Hotel 2 continued it’s crazy drama run with even more drama! The show opened with Ryan and Raheim battling it out since Ryan was starting to get close to Stephanie, the new girl and Raheim’s roommate. The guys no apparently have an alliance called “the government” with Raheim the one in power, yet he’s not considered the president so that makes no sense.
The girls were then sent away to a lunch date where they met not one but TWO new guys. Neither seem really interesting or crazy like the other guys, so hopefully at least one of them goes next time. The drama continued as Ryan got even closer to Stephanie and kind of, well you know, in the shower with her. It was quickly broken up though by Raheim who angrily walked in on the two and quickly went to Mike and James to let them know what went down. They both tell him that he shouldn’t be made since their motto is “sharing is caring” and in his interview Mike said Raheim had to go.
Everyone then had a quick roommate meeting where the two new guys were allowed to steal away two girls. Both Raheim and Johnny where chosen and both are now sharing a room. Next week not one but two of the guys leave the game and anyone is up for elimination. I’m sure more drama, especially between the love triangle that Raheim always ends up in, will go down. At least we can always hope!
