After several weeks, many eliminations and two quitters, Hoopz won I Love Money with a comeback win over Whiteboy. On the last elimination episode both Toastee and Pumpkin were eliminated, leaving the final four of Real, Hoopz, Whiteboy and Megan. All three wanted to win but with Megan the only one not in the alliance she realized that the only way to make it to the end would be to win the role of Pay Master. At the final Pay Master challenge the final four reenacted a fond moment from Flavor of Love 2. In that season Buckeyee almost pushed Krazy over the balcony and they were about to do the same.
For the challenge the fastest person to carry a Krazy doll over a suspended pathway, throw the doll over the balcony at the end and then return to the other side would win. Megan was up first and after getting halfway across the platform she fell, dropping the Krazy doll and disqualifying her. Hoopz was up next and although she quickly got across and threw Krazy over the balcony, she forgot to return and that hurt her time. Next up was Real and after completing the task only a few seconds past Hoopz’s time he was no longer in the running. That left Whiteboy to try his hand and with a time of 16 seconds he beat Hoopz out to become the final Pay Master of the game.

After controlling the last four eliminations on I Love Money, the four blondes were forced to turn against each other. Before the Pay Master challenge everything was fine between Brandi, Megan, Pumpkin and Toastee as they continued to ride the “we are weak” bandwagon. On the other side of the alliance spectrum were Hoopz and Real who were getting closer. Well I guess you could say Real was getting closer to Hoopz. See she has a boyfriend at home, which I don’t think Real knows about. He sure will a little later though!
At the Pay Master challenge the remaining eight were tasked to hold onto a dangling stripper pole. The last person on the pole would become the Pay Master and another twist was brought in. The first person to drop from the pole would be eliminated immediately from the game. That put the stakes even higher as nobody wanted to go home. As the challenge began the three guys all had trouble. The Entertainer was the first to drop though, sending himself home and back to his parents. The remainder of the guys, Whiteboy and Real then dropped leaving the five girls still hanging on. After Brandi, Pumpkin and finally Toastee fell it was down to Megan and Hoopz. Hoopz wanted to give it to Megan as she knew she would keep her but after hanging on for a few more minutes, Hoopz made a deal to keep Megan which gave Hoopz the title of Pay Master.

You would never think a show featuring “I Lovers” on VH1 would turn into one of the most crazy and backstabbing shows in a long time. On the last episode we learned that the show was going individual and thanks to that change, one of the biggest back stabs and blindsides took place. Following the leave of Rodeo, thanks to Megan, the alliances were set in their ways. Or so we thought, Megan was the only one to waiver as she began to fall more towards the remainder of the Stallionares, hoping they could protect her better then her all girl alliance.
For their first individual challenge the money lovers were going to stab each other in the back, literally. Each round everyone still in the game would throw a dagger at a dummy of another player. The first person with three daggers in their back would automatically go up for elimination while the last person remaining would be the Pay Master. The challenge went smoothly until the very end where Megan showed Pumpkin, Toastee and Brandi that she wasn’t sticking with the plan. When it came down to Real, 12 Pack and Toastee; one from each alliance; it was left to the two guys to take each other out. This gave Toastee the Pay Master role automatically, her second time for the show and one that had the ultimate power and safety.
On the way back to the house Hoopz, Real and Whiteboy were alone in a van with Megan. During that ride they welcomed her to their alliance, putting Megan in all three alliances at this point. Back at the house everyone was sucking up to Toastee and 12 Pack wanted to be sure she went home Whiteboy. He told her he’d go into the box just to make sure Whiteboy goes home. Bad idea buddy! Megan was also scheming but for the other side. Since Megan was starting to side with Whiteboy, she had to find a way to save him. She knew that Pumpkin, Brandi and Toastee wanted him gone badly and once she learned 12 Pack wanted in the elimination box her mind began to spin. Her first plan of action was to get Real, Hoopz and Whiteboy to apologize to Pumpkin and pull both her and Toastee back into the alliance. That they did and the two girls fell for it, putting Megan in the power seat once again and making her seem smarter then she looks.
In the vault it was time to put two more up for elimination along with Whiteboy. After a vote both 12 Pack and Entertainer were put into the box and were sent off with Toastee to their Power Outing. Here they had a hilarious “soul cleansing” where they got spit on and took him a turkey as a memento. Back at the house Megan used her powers of persuasion to get both Pumpkin and Brandi off the “get Whiteboy out” bandwagon. She told them that if they kept Entertainer and Whiteboy, the two alliances would still have someone to go after. Getting ride of 12 Pack would keep the target off of the four girls and keep them safe. After a little while the two girls agreed and when Toastee came back the plan was reiterated to her. It was all up to Toastee to decide though and it seemed she had a touch choice to make.
At the elimination ceremony Toastee first saved Entertainer. After bashing him a bit she gave him his check and was left with 12 Pack and Whiteboy standing in front of her. She at one point wanted to get rid of both and also gave 12 Pack her word during the power outing that he would stay. Toastee didn’t seem to care about that though as she went with the girls alliance and sent 12 Pack bouncing out of the game. It was interesting to see how quickly the target changed and how far backstabbing has gone so far. Will it continue next time? One can only hope!

I Love Money is starting to get just as confusing as some seasons of Survivor and Big Brother, alliance wise. There are so many alliances in this game that’s it’s hard to keep track of them all. After the elimination of Chance last week, the lines were drawn as new alliances formed from old friendships. To sum things up there are the remainder of the Stallionaires being: Real, Whiteboy and Hoopz. Rodeo thinks she’s in the alliance but she’s kind of not. Then we have the new Gold Team alliance which is: 12 Pack, Entertainer, Pumkin, Toastee and Heather. The pair in the house is Brandi and Megan but they are now also working with Pumkin and Toastee so there is a lot of meshing going on.
Before their challenge began we saw the new alliances congregate together. Pumkin and Toastee, fearing their life in their current bedroom, moved in with their new alliance. Hoopz and Rodeo also showed their new allegiance with the green team by moving into their bedroom. At their next challenge the money lovers were faced with eating food that was actually normal. Before the mission began Hoopz and Rodeo decided to throw it, saving their alliance of Whiteboy and Real. But since Heather was the leader for their team she got to decide that Hoopz would sit out, leaving it all up to Rodeo. Megan was the leader for the other team and would play a large role later.
During the entire challenge the green team was in the lead. They first ate sushi, food from a buffet, chicken and then crepes. Rodeo didn’t even have to throw it to much thanks to Entertainers lack of eating so there wasn’t as much drama as expected. Most came at the end when almost everyone puked their guts up. Seriously, the food they had wasn’t even disgusting so I don’t know what the huge deal was.
Back at the house the gold team finally had to return back to the vault. The few hours before they had to decide who would be nominated, Rodeo decided to kiss every one’s ass but it severally backfired. Inside the vault she was voted 5 - 2 to go into the box. She revolted against the idea, saying Toastee and Pumkin lied to her but it didn’t help. Hoopz and Toastee also went into the box, one for being a traitor while Toastee put herself in.
During the power outing Megan had the three girls talk to her dog, saying she was decide who went home. Hoopz and Toastee took it as a joke while Rodeo cried her heart out, thinking Megan was serious. That wasn’t all Rodeo did during the power outing as she bended to Megan’s every beck and call. I was surprised Rodeo would stoop that low to stay since she was very powerful and nothing like this on the Rock of Love.
When the power outing was over Megan was stuck voting one of the three girls out. She struggled somewhat as she swore on the Bible that she would do whatever her team wanted. That’s where the problem came as she wanted Rodeo gone. Her “team”, being Whiteboy, wanted Toastee gone for getting rid of Chance while her secret alliance, Brandi and Pumkin, wanted Hoopz gone.
Later that night it was time for Megan to choose who was going to be bounced. After insulting Toastee, but giving her her check, Megan hindered her alliance but it seems Toastee will keep it going for just a bit longer. It was then down to Hoopz and Rodeo. After calling Rodeo up and giving her nice comments, she bounced Rodeo from the game, making the decision for herself. I’m not sure why she would do that though since now she angered both the green team and her secret alliance but hey it’s her decision. Once Rodeo left the yard the host then revealed that the teams were now done with. With the game now turning individual how will the jumble of alliances pan out? Tune in next Sunday as we get a double dose of I Love Money.

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.

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.
