It started with a shoe flying. Then flew the insults, the girls to the stage and ultimately, the girls from the building. And when the dust settled, many questions remained about what exactly had gone down in the fight between Deelishis, Bootz, Buckwild, Buckeey, Saaphyri and New York at the Flavor of Love 2 reunion.

To help make sense of the madness, we (separately) talked to four of the girls involved in the mele -- New York, Deelishis, Buckwild and Bootz -- and one impartial bystander. After the jump, read quotes from the girls that have been put together to tell what was going through their minds when they went off.

The pressure mounts...

New York: I expected those girls to act as animals because, you know, that's what they are. They're vicious, they're jealous, they're mean and cruel, and it was just straight chaos. I didn't expect that, but when I saw it, I was not surprised. You have to look at the quality of the individuals that were in the house. They had no class. They were just straight ghetto trash. Please take that down because it's the truth.

Buckwild: I threw a shoe at New York because basically, I thought it was hysterical. I think there was nothing better to throw at her unless there would have been a rubber chicken sitting there. I'm a fan of the show myself, so I thought about it -- I wanted to see Buckwild throw a shoe at New York's head. I was happy to be able to accomplish that.

Deelishis: I wasn't out to get New York. I was gratified, I had done my best to get to know this guy. I felt that we were compatible and he did, too. My daughter was there, I was able to reunite with the girls. This was a good feeling for me. Getting at New York was the last thing on my mind. Getting at her was enough in Belize, in my opinion. She walked away for the second time, having been intimate with this man. That was enough damage in itself. I didn't have to do anything.

Bootz: Everybody wanted their revenge back on New York to show America that she's a little punk. That was my point, I wanted America to see. During the first show [of Season 2] featuring New York, she made a comment about me being a ghetto hoe and hip-hop trash. She knew that I wasn't going to see that till it aired. That episode aired right before the reunion. She never said that to my face, and that's what pissed me off. She said that she had backed up in the corner, and that pissed me off, too. Don't try to act like I'm a punk because you're scared to let me know. People that watch the show think we see her saying that, because people ask me questions like, "Oh why didn't you say anything to her?" They don't realize that we can't see that stuff.

Buckwild: She don't even say that crap in front of Flav! She's not that stupid. She's evil, she's a horrible person, she says horrible things about people. You don't have to be evil to win the game, and Deelishis proved that.

Deelishis: New York's entrance wasn't when we expected. We thought she'd come out second-to-last. She didn't win the show, so why is she the grand finale? It was because they had to set the scene, they wanted to make sure Deelishis was already out there.

New York: I felt that they kept me out of the show till the end because you save the best for last.

Deelishis: They played a clip we hadn't witnessed prior to coming to the reunion. That episode that we saw hadn't aired yet. I never knew that she said something about my birthmark on my eye, she said something about "her s***-stained eye and her mustache" and then she turned around and said, "Her mom must be an alien, she's an innovator, she sprouted plastic hair," some stupid comment. My natural reaction to that was, "Oh you're gonna get it." You turn around and insult my mom, who is, like, one of the sweetest people to step her foot over the threshold of that house?

Like Dat: You would react that way too if, after all this time, you didn't realize someone was talking about your mama like that. New York creates drama, but you don't have to talk about nobody's mama. And Deelishis being from Detroit and her mom being mad nice and everything, forget it. That's enough to upset anybody.

The fight erupts...

Deelishis: I reacted and I didn't think about it. I ended up charging at her and I wish that I hadn't.

Bootz: I ain't gonna lie, I would have really hurt her. When I got past everybody, I thought I was gonna get her. But I knew that the reason they had that stage so far away was that they knew that we wanted revenge.

Buckwild: If I had gotten hold of her, I would have disfigured the bitch. It would have been worth it. I got people on MySpace that's willing to bail me outta jail for whooping that bitch's ass. A lot of people don't like her.

Like Dat: I'm looking at Big Rick and, you know, Big Rick held his own because at one point, he had three of those girls he was holding back. I know he's big and everything, but I was sitting there and watching like, These are my girls, should I go out there and do something?

Buckwild: My main point in rushing the stage was to cause a diversion. I figured I could get either one or two of the security guards on me so somebody could get through.

New York: I was not afraid. I felt like I was on top of the world. I got a reaction. I don't care what kind of reaction I get, whether it's negative or positive. I got under those girls' skins enough that they were bum rushing me. I was elated. I was happy. It felt grand.

Deelishis: I'm upset that I even reacted to her. That gave her more power. It showed her she had done exactly what she set out to do: to frustrate us . . . If there was anything I could do over in my entire involvement in Flavor of Love, I'd do my reaction to New York's comments over. At the end of the day, it did not change who she was. It changed who I was. It changed how people would view me as, and I do not like that. I hate it.

Buckwild: The only thing I regret is missing her by about five inches. Look for that shoe on eBay soon!

New York: I knew I was going to be OK. My gown was couture, my hair was perfect. There was nothing out of place with New York. Had I gotten socked, it wouldn't have mattered. I would have gone down looking terrific, are you kidding me?

The tempers cool...

Deelishis: It didn't take much to cool me down. An environment can really take you over. You're human. Once the match was struck, the fire was burning. The fire continued to burn within me because the situation grew. She was still on the stage, she was still livin' at the mouth, my homegirls were trying to get a hold of her. When they took us outside, you're out of that environment and you're like, "Oh my god, what did I just allow myself to be a part of?"

Bootz: We went outside and Buckeey got into it with some guy that claimed he was an audience member. He was calling everybody on the show hoes. I didn't find out till after what it was all about, I just remember her screaming. And he was acting stupid and then Buckwild threw water at him, and I was just laughing. After a while, Flav came out to talk to us, but I didn't give a damn about what Flav had to say.

Buckwild: Flavcame out and told us we were hysterical and it was funny. We left forcibly. We tried to wait in the parking lot for the bitch, but they called security and had us thrown out.

Deelishis: When I was out of the environment, everything was put into perspective. [My daughter] Jasmine wasn't in that environment at all. After she had said her hellos and greeted Flav, they took her out. But once they brought her outside where we were cooling off, and I was like, "Oh my god. That's not the type of mother that I am. That's not the type of mother I want to be portrayed as. And I don't even want to have to explain anything to my daughter about why I'm outside." She knew that the show was still going on inside the studio. I immediately was like, "Oh my God, Lord forgive me." It didn't feel good, that's not my character. I felt terrible. I couldn't sleep with that for days after.

Resentment remains...

New York: Deelishis had to calm down to come back onstage. She pushed her emotions to the side for Flav. It was all a joke. Deelishis and I, we definitely have some unsettled business.

Buckwild: Oh, it's unresolved, trust me. New York better not run into me nowhere. That'd be my favorite day of the year. That's what happens when you have a nemesis.

Bootz: New York is such a punk and I think she realized this is not the show to f*** with. This is not Season 1. We're not people that will just let you run over us. I told her, "I'm not Pumkin." I said, "Bitch, you put your hands on me..." She got scared. I think that's why she left the stage. She gets on my nerves because she's not as hard as people think she is.

Like Dat: I'm always gonna be diplomatic about this because there's got to be a reason behind, there's got to be a story behind everybody's actions. New York's there to create drama. She said and, likely, did despicable things. She obviously said things that made them angry. But we are still ladies and we do have to keep our composure. I don't like her, but you didn't see me out there. I wasn't even in the house with her and she was talking about my big fat ass.

Deelishis: What's funny is so many people, when they come up to me, the first thing that comes out of their mouth is, "Oh my God, why didn't you hit her with the curling iron? Why didn't you beat her?" So I thought about that later. When I got back from L.A., I had to call home after the reunion and people asked how things went. I'm like, "Guys, I have to tell you, some things went down that I didn't plan and that I didn't expect. You're gonna be disappointed." When I told my mom, she was just quiet. She didn't talk for the rest of the conversation, she just listened to me and I know she was really disappointed. When she saw the episode later, though, when New York made the comment about the sprouting of the plastic hair, oh my God, I never saw my mom condone that type of behavior! She was like, "Oh yeah, you shoulda kicked her ass!"

New York: The girls are so weak. They let me make them look like complete idiots. They all looked like they needed to be in the psychiatric ward. And they let little old me do that? Come on, you know New York is the bomb. I'm the only woman that I know, thus far, that can make six women bum rush the stage ready to kill me. Are you kidding me? I loved it. I loved every second of it.

I loved seeing the reunion show. I laughed my butt off though. You could see how much New York still loves Flav, and wants to be with Flav.

[Tina]

Loved the Reunion show. Wanting to know if anyone else thinks New York's Mom is really her Dad!!

[LaShai' Kyles]

I love that he pick Deelishis. She is a beautiful person and she is truly my role model. But that girl New York is to conceited and I don't like that. They said be conceited but not that conceited. But Deelishis is true and that is what I like about her. I see why Flav picked her!

[Brandon]

I was kind of curious to know does anybody know why Saphyrii was trying to fight New York I mean I don't blame her if I was up there would have went after her myself but do anybody know?

[Eric Booker]

First i want to say Flava! Flav! A Dog u did the right thing choosen Delishis she has a booty, and bootz u did the right thing going to try to stomp new york in da ground.

DEELISHIS YOU ARE THE BEST AND I WISH YOU THE BEST HOPE YOU FIND HAPPINESS WITH OR WITHOUT FLAVA. I LOOKED FORWARD TO MEETING YOUR DAUGHTER BUT THE DRAMA CAME AND I WISH YOU AND YOUR GIRLS GOT A CHANCE TO WHIP HER ASS HOPEFULLY ONE DAY MY WISH WILL COME TRUE AND THE CAMERAS MUST BE THERE TO CAUGHT IT....... i LOVE YOU DEELISHIS

[Detroit]

NY,
You are the most fake woman Ive ever seen. For you to say the things about Deelishis' Mom when your Mother looks like a gorilla is unbelievable! Honestly, shes DOES & your Mom is an awful person. I can see why you Dad drank like a fish with Krazy & the girls. Any man would have to be drunk or high to be within 2 feet of your Mom...or you for that matter

[sequoia]

wutz up yall dis ur gurl quoia well im a fan of da show and i thought that bootz,deelishis,and buckeey wuz da realest ones.i like bootz b/c she reminded me of myself. but all i have left to say is im happy for u deelishis but yall shouldve beat new york down.

[Janyl]

Deelishis u shoulda kicked New Yorks ass....i kno dat if u nd New York would meet up in da streets u would kick her ass i kno u waz tryna be classy cuz u on national TV but u dont let someone talk bout ur momz nd ur momz hair.....BEAT HER ASS DEELISHIS

[memmemmemmememememmemmemem the real NY]

Actually NY did win what she came there for and that is a show of her own not a man of her own....she is alreay a man of her own.......drag queen that is...flavor I know all she did was let you butt fu k her cause she is really a man...but she is going to make you some more money like the hooker she is ....i know u will get paid off her new show and she will prove to have been the real phoney.

[Ragan]

Bootz and Deelishis did what any person would do when backed against the wall. Nobody believes for a second that New York could beat either of the ladies one on one or otherwise. She is there for show only and she knows the show will not let anything happen to her.

[micah]

yeah u should of kicked her ass

[Leahrenae]

This reunion was hilarious. I thought that the girls , especially Deelisis had justifiable reasons for being upset with New York, however, they didn't have to damn near kill Lala to show their disappointment. New York is the type of person that loves the drama, the yelling only ignites her and makes her feel more powerful and that she has control. But it seems like Flav and Deelishis will kick it for awhile, hopefully it'll all work out for them.

[TIFFANY]

I LOVE NEW YORK!!!!! YEAH SOMETIMES SHE CAN BE A BITCH... BUT HEY EVERYONE IS DIFFERENT.....DEELIISHIS...CONGRADULATIONS...MORE POWER TO YOU BUT HOW OLD ARE YOU AND YOU STILL GET OFFENDED WHEN SOMEONE TALKS ABOUT YOU MOTHER????WOW!!!!

[ken knox]

had heard that goldie was doing stand up comedy. is that true and if so where at how can we get in contact with her. does she have a e-mail address anything to contact goldie

[Tamiesha Hicks]

Well I've been watching the whole Flava Of Love 2 and I really am a big fan of the show. I believe that the reason why Flava Flav invited New York back into the house was because none of the other girls was sleeping wit him and he wanted something that they wasn't giving him. I do know that at the reunion the girls shouldn't had let New York bring them to the level of getting thrown out because that's the kind of person she is, Evil. But I am happy that Deelishis daughter didn't see any of that confusing moment that her mother was involved in. And everything turned out great!! Eventhough Deelishis apologized to New York I still don't think everything is gravy between them. Deelishis was being the mature woman that she is for peacing up the beef. I wonder will there be another season of Flava of Love?????

[sexy sk8r]

i saw both shows and both reunions and i think that new york is a fake ass bitch. i may be 15 but i sure do have a whole lot of lip. if i was in there, i would have beat that fake ass bitch wit weave she know damn well aint hers. new york f*** u and ur new show

[terri]

It was stupid for Saaphyri to run to the stage to get New York because it didn't even have nothin to do with her. Another thing is the reunion was over with a lot of unanswered questions.

[kelly]

Dear vh1,
I was very disappointed in the reunion show, because a lot of the stuff they showed in the preview
wasn't even shown like when flav met deelish's little girl, and i was looking forward to that becuse it appeared to be the only postive thing that they could of showed. I thought the show was sloppy and put together poorly!

[caramel]

deelishis shouldve kicked her drunk ugly mannish ass.Bootz shouldve too for tryna say she was scared. oh plz new york she the one that was scared.all of them was fin' to tear that tell ^up.

[Tiffany]

That was a great show, but you see that New York didn't start talking s^^^ until they had the other girls handled. New York is more talk than action. I am truly glad to see Flav with Deelishis.

[Tiara]

Personally I think Deelishis was the right one to win. On some real shit New York is dat Bitch for real. Even though none of the girls liked her, I was down with her since the first season. But I like u better in the first season. You honestly look better with weight on you. And how could u let yo mama call your ass fat??????????

[Allysia Brown]

I feel like New York new show will not make it. Because aint no man in his RIGHT mind would want a b**** that dramatic!! By the way shes a w**** she gives it easily {a man dont want nobody who is easy}. Deelishis should have beat the f*** out of New York!! At least Deelishis mom have hair and she does not look like a drag QUEEN {BALD HEADED A**}!!!
