The Flav broken heart elixir
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
So we got to see a little bit more of the Flavor Flav girls in week two of Flavor of Love 3.
I can say I definitely don’t like Shy (though I do like her Farrah Fawcett weave). I don’t like Sinceeer, she’s too drunk too much of the time. And Rayna is too much drama.
All three seem like they’re vying to take up where New York famously left off. We’ll soon find out which of those three is “man” enough (since so many of you think New York was a bit on the manly side anyway) to fill her stilettos.
Last night’s episode challenge was to see which girl could heal Flav’s broken heart. Aside from the “nursing” uniforms some of them wore, they were a bit creative. Ice’s happiness plan: Throw darts at a picture of New York.
But Tik’s remedy of rainbow colored glitter had me scratching my head. I still can’t make sense of that one. I’m glad he gave her the boot.
Hotlanta, the Marietta mom of three is one of my favorites. And I think her remedy, a boxed clock with “It takes a Nation of Millions to Hold Us Back,” engraved on it, was the best. It’s the same title of what is rap music’s greatest album from Flav’s days with Public Enemy. Ironically, one of the songs on that album, “She Watch Channel Zero?!” is about a girl who watches mindless and useless television shows.
So who’s your favorite? Did you agree with Flav’s decision to boot Tik, El and St. Lewis last night? Which girl or girls do you hate? And can someone explain the identical twins — Thing 1 and Thing 2? Remember Cousin It in the Addams Family series/movies? They just don’t cut it in any way, shape or form if you ask me.

Flav a flav is a thug loser. He’s a nasty old man, disgusting. Fake teeth probably his real ones lost from smoking crack. Ghetto, ghetto. There’s more important things to write about, why bother with these stupid TV shows—they’re rotting peoples brains.

I cannot believe how successful this idiot has been. I thought he was in trouble for child support violations or crack? He represents all that is wrong in Atlanta. Ignorance, Non-focus, Coruption, etc. He’s nothing but a crack head. I can’t believe the AJC would write an article on him. Just goes to prove you can take the paper out of the hood but not the hood out of the paper-will never happen. Schools are failing in South Atlanta, coruption everywhere, and I’m hoping that any day now, Dekalb will be struck from the Earth. If you want to know why Atlanta is the way it is, just watch the first 10 minutes of WSB, FOX5, etc. Who is committing all of the crimes? Enough said.

Why waste your valuable time on this vast web site that has links to all of the other “news” and issues that you want addressed. Yes, this and a number of other shows on TV are stupid, but no one is making YOU look at it or come to web sites and post about it. YOU do NOT have to see it if YOU don’t want to.

Broken heart? Which of you idiots is going to believe THAT? This is about showmanship, celebrity, and extending his pathetic 15 minutes of fame.
Flavor Flave is a joke in your town.

Last I checked this was a blog about this tired, trifling, wanna-be show. It is not stated anywhere that you have to be a fan of the show, so…………I have to agree, this is totally a waste of space. I want a job with AJC too, so I can spend my days writing ignorant drivel!
With all that’s going on right here in our city, this is what the AJC wants us to read?!! Thanks, AJC………….oh, and by the way, you SUCK!!!!!

Although I think Flav is a bit old for some of these women, that’s his and their business. The show is hood but if you dont like the show then dont watch it. The same for this article. What reason did you have to click on this link if you was not interested in the Flav article. If you think so little of a man you dont know then why click on his name to view this article. I know why, because you were interested in what AJC and others had to say about him and his show. Yes, alot is going on in the Atlanta community and I have seen it take a drastic decline, since I am born and raised from here. If you are so unhappy with what is going on in ATL, then make some changes. Go and save the community.

Garbage-level TV for garbage-level viewers.
And the AJC is a garbage-level newspaper for devoting a mili-speck of ink to treating this garbage-level topic as “news.”

This is an awful lot of discussion about garbage that you all DON’T watch. If this is THAT offensive to you please DO NOT watch, DO NOT comment. This way your blood pressure can stay at a normal level and you have ample free time to watch and/or post about the myraid of things that deserve more coverage than ghetto-thrash TV.

I agree if you do not watch it do not comment on it to keep your pressure down, thank you “eyeslee”! but I watch the show and I agree, I do not like “Shy” nor “Raynna”. I thought for sure Raynna was gone. This show is hilarious! Nothing else on Mondays….

TC: To tell you the truth, I think that Flavor of Love and shows like it are horrid and terrible TV. But I know how to change the channel to something else if I can’t take it anymore. I guess the people that DON’T watch but come to a blog ABOUT the show need to feel like they are “better” than someone else and this is how they do it-by commenting on something they supposedly haven’t seen.

I used to think that the internet was the greatest invention ever. Now I’m not so sure. Some how, some way all the not so bright, anti-social people of the world have gotten log ins and decided to storm the web. Television can be used for entertainment and it can also be educational. Every single issue that we have in this world is addressed by TV, magazine, newspaper and the web. Find the media outlet that is addressing your issue. If you can’t find it then YOU start the blog, magazine or tv show.

Sure, you garbage-level “people” have a right to watch whatever you want — including garbage-level shows such as this. But, the rest of us, who are above garbage-level, similarly have a right to step in and point out that garbage is garbage is garbage is garbage … . and we don’t want garbage (referring to this kind of crap-o-tainment AND the garbage-level people who watch it) polluting our airwaves and neighborhoods and shopping malls and schools. ‘Nuff said.

The only thing funnier than people calling this show what it is - TRASH, are the people who are trying to tell us we can’t do that!! Get over yourself people, as I said before, this blog is not for “fans of the show only”, it is for whoever has an opinion about the show! And my opinion is that it is way too stupid to even watch!!!

WTF: You can call the show TRASH, you can come here and post about the TRASH TV and the trashy people that watch it…but why? Why spend even a small part of your day giving TRASH a second thought? Why do that when you can engage in converstation with people that enjoy something that you enjoy somewhere else? Why spread the caustic energy? What good is that? This crusade is defintely NOT going to stop people from watching.

WTF: I just like to have understanding, that is why I ask questions. I want understand the psyche of the internet poster that hates something but spends part of their day going back and forth with people about it. That is all. I know that this is not any of my “little business” but it fascinates me.

The show is great, the women are fabulous and Flav is having fun for such an urgly man. What else can I say. Give the man a break. TV doesn’t have to carry only good looking people. Go Flav. It’s okay to be Ghetto.

Flava Flav is a brilliant, what stars do you know black or white that can reinvent themselves as many times as me. I have out lasted many of the top acts of the 80’s that came on the scene with me. Now look at yourselves on this blog, posting comments about me. I am smiling with my gold teeth all the way to the bank.
Oh and by the way my show has the highest viewer level than any previous VH-1 one show.
