Sanjaya Loves...New York?

Call it a ploy for another 15 minutes. Call it a further bid to prove his heterosexuality. Call it crazy, or whatever else you want, but the fact is that booted Idol Sanjaya Malkar may be heading up his greatest American swindle yet by trying out for I Love New York 2. ILoveNewYork2.com now features a profile purportedly created by Sanjaya. Included are some shots, a video of him playing with Sour Patch Kids (is that a comment on New York's personality?) and a brief message that includes the line, "...When I saw the opportunity to get jiggy with New York, I saw a way to even top my pony-hawk!!" It's now the No. 2 highest-ranked profile -- it could be No. 1 within hours.

Of course, it's not likely that Sanjaya could make the show -- at 17, he's too young, for one thing (contestants must be at least 21). Additionally, there's no evidence that the profile isn't the work of an outside prankster -- there are no exclusive images and the aforementioned video has been available on YouTube for over a month. Still, can you imagine the sparks that would fly if he did make it on the show? We'd have another 12 Pack in our hands, if you get my drift. Wink, wink...awkward smile.

The Celebreality Interview - Heather

It took us a while, but we finally caught up with Heather, Charm School's second cast-off (also known as Krazy). She's a busy girl, stopping recently in Kentucky, Detroit and Ohio. By day, Heather has been lecturing at high schools and fielding interviews at radio stations. By night, she's been appearing at clubs. It's like Flashdance without the welding or gyrating.

After the jump, Heather talks about her time on Flavor of Love and Charm School, the dress-stealing incident that ended up getting her the boot and, of course, her music career. She is nothing, if not poised. For real! 

I Love New York 2 Casting Call!

Guys 21 and up, if you have love for New York, you have a chance to show it in person. The producers of I Love New York 2 are holding a casting call Sunday (May 6) at the New York club Home (532 West 27th Street , New York, New York). Auditions will be held from 12 p.m. to 6 p.m. and big personalities are a must. Of course, New York herself will be in attendance, handpicking the dudes that will vie for her affection. "I don't know if I'm going to go for a thug, a nerd or Enrico Suavé this time," she says. "I'm gonna peel my eyes back and keep them wide open this time. The winner is going to be the one who loves me the most."

Of course, if you can't make it (or just look better on the Internet), you can still audition via ILoveNewYork2.com (but keep in mind that only five of the 20 men who make the show will be chosen from the site -- you may have a better chance if you show up in person).

Celebrity Fit Club: The Fight Rages On

Posted below is a brief (uncensored!) look into Sunday's episode of Celebrity Fit Club: Men vs. Women. Tension is escalating to the point where this show should be renamed Celebrity Fight Club: Everyone vs. Dustin. In the clip below, you see Dustin having it out with Kimberley Locke. "This is not the first time fat girls have been angry with me," Dustin tells the camera. Wow. Every week, it gets easier and easier to choose the side that he isn't on, just 'cause.

The Celebreality Interview - Jennifer

When we talked to Jennifer earlier this week, she seemed like a down-to-earth girl who had already put her somewhat scandalous past behind her. But that was before yesterday's video announcement. Maybe things aren't so simple anymore, but after going over this interview, there's no doubt that Jennifer has plenty of drive and intelligence to achieve whatever she wants, porn tape be damned.

After the jump, Jennifer talks about the state of her relationship with her family, those crazy pets of hers and why she maybe didn't need Charm School, after all.

Puh-lease to not get him started!

Oh well. Too late.

Charm School - Extra Credit (Lip Slip Edition)

This week's batch of scenes you didn't see on this week's Charm School is all about loose lips. In the first, Saaphyri gives a savagely funny breakdown of Schatar's look. Key quote: "The definition of Hottie's look is how to be homeless and retarded-looking and borderline schizophrenic. That is her look." You'd be hard-pressed to find a better reading this side of Paris Is Burning.

In the second, the lips are literally loose: Schatar, Larissa and Shay discuss a snatch of renegade genitalia (a lip slip!) Saaphyri observed on one of the girls, as well as a discussion of said girl's sexuality. You'll have to watch it to find who they think is the girl who likes girls, but at least you can rest assured that gay scares weren't just reserved for I Love New York!

The final clip is a bit more serious, as it shows Mo'Nique flapping her gums to give the girls some tough love. Say what you want about Mo, but this clip proves her heart is in this show and invested in these girls. Add that to the talent for whipping up gems like, "Don't be a broke p****-giver!" and you have the makings of a media queen. All hail Mo.
