Does this mean the plant has to go, too?

Leading-the-blind items

- When the A-listers visit a spa on Sunday’s Surreal Life Fame Games, what will gross them out more: Ron Jeremy’s bawdy jokes, or the sight of him in a robe?

- New York is looking for a baller (when times get hard she needs someone to help her out). But when she has the guys take it to the court on Monday’s I Love New York, will she come up with a bunch of scrubs who don’t know what a man’s about?

- Will Tom Sizemore bounce back from last week’s scare, or has he fallen into a hole for good? Could Shooting Sizemore be any heavier?

Links to reality

- The New York Times definitely has love for New York. The paper continues revealing its fascination with all things Celebreality – just in is a fair and balanced article examining the effect of Flavor of Love on VH1 and society in general. As a bonus, it serves as a preview for upcoming Celebreality programming (watch out world, here comes Scott Baio...again). [The New York Times]

- Meanwhile, the Grey Lady isn't the only one commenting on New York's exploits -- a funny lady is, too. Goldie delivers video recaps of each episode at VSPOT and they're worth keeping up with. Sample line from the most recent entry: "Damn! This bitch really think she Paris Hilton." [ VSPOT]

- In still more New York news, she told us that "The mirror is one of my best friends. If the mirror had a MySpace, he would be part of my Top 8, OK?" This new set of photos suggests that the camera would be up there, too.

- Ron Jeremy has just released his memoir that's equal parts dirty and dirt-filled. For example, he recounts a wild night, in which he showed Paris Hilton what he is working with (more often than not, that phrase can be taken literally). [HarperCollins]

- Chyna Doll is getting her own VH1 show? For real? [Wrestling News]

- The Hulkster spent his Superbowl Sunday with injured soldiers. What a guy! [cbs4.com]

- Idolator weighs in with their odds for the remaining contestants of White Rapper. It’s already wrong (but then, who could see Sullee’s forfeit coming?), but it’s still an informed (and funny!) overview of the show. [Idolator]

- And speaking of Sullee, if you're still reeling from his forfeit, help make sense of it with this VSPOT extra, which features Serch and some Ego Trip guys talking about the nature of snitching and why they feel Sullee cracked under pressure.

The Celebreality Interview - Catching up with New York

How does reality TV alter one's personal reality? That's the central question in our recent discussion with New York, whose current fame seems to know no bounds. Beating the odds with success that has surprised even its titular diva, I Love New York has emerged from the shadow of Flavor of Love as unmissable TV in its own right. It's rare that a spin-off can capture success comprable to the show that spawned it, but ILNY has. Combine that with the fact that at the center of such a popular show is a woman who flaunts her sexuality often and enthusiastically, as opposed to upholding archaic notions of "proper" female behavior. The ratings suggest that New York and her big, big love are being celebrated, not villified.

All of this makes I Love New York a creature that pop-culture has rarely seen before. It's something of a reality show unicorn. We talked to New York about all this, as well as her feelings on feminism and the buzz that she revealed ILNY's "winner" during her appearance last month on Jimmy Kimmel Live! Things, to use New York's own words at one point, "get steamy" after the jump...

Jon Boy was ready for his close-up...

Sullee was not...

Both had to go. It's a little contradictory, but those...are...the...breaks!
