VH1'S NEW "FINDING LOVE" HITS

I am so glad Pepa from Salt N' Pepa finally got her own show-I love love love her personality-She is so hilarious and to top it off with sprinkles, she will be searching for a man that will make her heart beat an extra thump.  Go find your man girl! Definitely tuning in for this! 

Chili from TLC will also be stepping into the reality world with the "Chili Project" as she and her mama, with the help of a relationship expert, help her find her boo.

This one makes me laugh the most...

Frank, the I still live at home with mommy and daddy "Entertainer" who is recognized for being on I love New York and I love Money will no doubtedly also be searching for his catch while living in his pimped out pad... in his parents basement.  This guy is really koo koo!  This may be too much of a train wreck show for me to handle...but I'll check it out at least once.

DAY 26 AT BET AFTER PARTY

Day 26 and the guys from "Making the Band".  I tried to get a picture with them but they were being mauled by some serious groupies that I bet were willing to elbow me in the face before they let me sneak by them. 

PITCHMEN'S CO-STAR BILLY MAYS PASSES AWAY

R.I.P

Fellow "Pitchmen" star Anthony Sullivan:

"There are no words to describe how I feel about the passing of my great friend and fellow Pitchman Billy Mays. I have a massive hole in my heart. My thoughts go out to his wife, Deborah, son Billy III, and his beautiful daughter, Elizabeth, his mom and dad and his whole family," Sullivan said in a statement. 

"Billy and I have known each other for 15 years. We are the greatest of friends... we were literally joined at the hip for the past six months.  Discovery Channel's Pitchmen was not only a wonderful experience, but also a great opportunity for Billy and I to let people into our world and see what an awesome guy he was in front of the cameras and show our friendship to the world."

EVERY DUMB BLONDE'S DREAM COME TRUE

VH1 is making dreams a reality...They are taking 28 year old Megan Hauserman, which many may recognize from Rock of Love, I love Money and for wearing close to nothing, and hooking her up with 17 elgible, must be mindless, mulit-millionaires who will compete for her on "Megan Wants a Millionaire".  There isn't anything more a gold digger can ask for.

CHELSEA HANDLER AND FRIENDS PARODY OF NEW JERSEY HOUSEWIVES REUNION

Crazy bitch alert!

ABC BRINGS FAMILIES TOGETHER AT LAST...OR NOT

There can't be anything more awkward than meeting your long lost family member for the first time with cameras staring at your every move.  What if the other person doesn't want to be found...is it going to be like the show "Cheaters" when the person who gets caught cheating tries to escape the cameras by running away and all you see is the screen hoping up and down as the camera guy chases them down?  

ABC will air 6 episodes of "Find My Family" which will follow people who want to find a relative or friend.  This will either be a tear jerker or a 'damn you should of left well enough alone' moment.  Hosts for the show are NFL linebacker Tim Green and former KTTV and KCBS entertainment reporter Lisa Joyner.

JAMIE FOXX PRODUCES IN LIVING COLOR

Move over Saturday Night Live because Jamie Fox is about to heat things up with this generations version of In Living Color.  I loved that show!  I'm diggin your hustle Mr. Fox!  FOX will Executive Produce, currently under development with MTV.  

R.I.P MICHAEL JACKSON & FARRAH FAWCET

He dies at the age of 50 due to a heart attack.  I'm sure this is how most of us would like to remember him.  

HE'S A WINNER

Lou Diamond Phillips wins the lamest show ever-"I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here".

LOHAN AND SEACREST GET REAL

Ouber popular Lindsay Lohan and reality show queen king Ryan Seacrest met for lunch, yah apparently they both do eat, to talk reality.  Ryan is looking to place Lindsay in a show that will give others a second chance -She tweets: 

"Working on a really great project for television - I am excited!" Something meaningful like Extreme Home Makeover on ABC… :)" 

Not sure if I am buying the idea of her helping someone else when she can’t seem to get her life in order…but I see what your doing Seacrest, like the twist.    

LOOKY WHO'S BACK

A comeback? Or just plain broke? Washed out hip hop Producer, Scott Storch signed a deal with Bunim-Murray Productions for his own reality show.  Are you done snorting cocaine dude and ready to come back to the real world? The show will chronicle his life as he attempts to reinvent himself in the music biz.  Good luck man! 

“This is a monumental moment to see a producer of his caliber let the cameras into his world and see how hit records are made. A lot of people have tried to get Scott to open up the curtain to this process but have never been successful,” says executive producer David Weintraub.

WHAT IN THE HELL WERE THEY THINKING...

When they chose these outfits....Was the budget short, time ran out? Poor Angela didn't even finish getting dressed. 

JESSICA EXAMINES BEAUTY

Jessica Simpson is shooting a VH1 docu-series that will take her all over the world to meet every day women and examine what they consider to be true beauty.  Everywhere you go, beauty is translated differently-In Los Angeles, to many, beautiful means thin, big boobs and blonde hair and in the South beauty means you gotta be bootylicious. I've been to different places in the world where I've been considered fugly...what a self esteem hit that was for me, let me tell ya!  It will be interesting to see everyone's different interpretation of beauty. 

"THE HILLS" AUDRINA PATRIDGE IN CARLS JR COMMERCIAL

ummm....is that supposed to be her sexy voice?  Check it out!

NO MORE JON AND KATE...I HOPE

Watch tonight during the one hour special for the THE MUCH ANTICIPATED "Jon and Kate Plus 8" announcement...honestly it's disgusting that they are putting their issues out like this...if she is booting him out, which it seems that is the case, this is such a demeaning way to handle your personal biz.  What happened to going out with your dignity.  So over them! 

DIZAMN...ANOTHER ONE BITES THE DUST

Another reality show idea...poof-gone in the wind... or rather on Fox Television.  See look I'm not lieing-these are my notes I jotted down about 6 months ago:

LOVE OR LUST

 Young couples who are going to get married. 

Go through marriage counseling . 

Find out new things about each other.

Anyways,  Fox will air "Wedlock or Deadlock" a series where counselors and psychologists advise couples whether or not they should tie the knot or run for their life.  I guess we will have to wait and find out if this show will be the cause for more (producer persuaded) problems for the couple or if it will help solve existing issues.

I thought of this idea when I was thinking of how so many people get into relationships and become so infatuated with the idea of being ga-ga in love that they get caught up in the moment they think they are having and ignore all warning signs and later down the road find themselves stuck in a miserable marriage-Dumb Dumbs.  I rather not marry then marry and end up having to burn his clothes out of rage! Ok, JK- I am not one of those crazy stalker girls but you get what I'm saying, right?  Premieres July 20th. 

 

A WORLD WITHOUT REALITY TELEVISION

** There would be less people who think, that because you are crazy, you can get your own show.

**Has-beens would remain has-beens.  

**Less break-ups

**You would be just another talented singer trying to make it in the entertainment business.

**How else would you explain your problems?

**People wouldn't be famous for being famous...less "celebrities".

**There would be no Speidi! Imagine that huh-who else would we laugh at?

**I'd be jobless...and so would a lot of other folks.

** You wouldn't be able to watch other people's lives without being a creepy weirdo.

As you can see, we need reality television-very much the same way we need air to breathe. :-)

I HATE MY....

Have you guys ever heard of www.axelist.com?  I guess I've been missing out....it's a website that allows you to vent about your boss, spouse or friend when they piss you off.  Prometheus Entertainment is partnering up with the site to create a reality show that will show both sides of the conflict, ending with a resolution. 

I put my name in,  just to check if I had to go get Osama out of hiding, luckily nothing came up.

This girl couldn't wait to tell her story:

she is a *censored* who will do anything to sleep with your man. she will lie to him and tell him anything to get him to cheat and when he dose she will rub it in your face. She also has S.T.Ds stay away she is a mind *censored* and a *censored*. sorry for all the cuss words but i almost misscaried my baby becouse she called me att all hours and told me all kinds of *censored* and played games to get my man. She is married and for her its just a notch on her belt and an ego boost. Warning to all married women. DONT TRUST TARA DURLEY.

SPEIDI ON THE VIEW-THE GIRLS BREAK IT DOWN FOR THEM!

This is great!  Whoopi: "You guys have to get it together"! 

Famous, rich and dumb as hell! The blind leading the blind.

YOU GOTTA BE CRAZY TO BE 16 AND PREGNANT

I had a chance to check out MTV's new series "16 and Pregnant". Fast little kids....At 16 I couldn't even make it to school on time, much less parent a child. When your 16 dating is already hard enough, I mean come on you have to deal with things like how one of your friends went out with your boyfriend without telling you and how he never returned your call when dammit- he promised he would this time, I mean your plate is already full. Having a child and dealing with a relationship at 16 is only destined for disaster. No matter how grown up you try and act, at 16, you are just not mature enough to deal with these types of situations! 

I just recently went to a dinner with a group of girls, two of which had children and one of the things we talked about was....you guessed it, the horrifying, I mean lovely experience of pregnancy. I have never- ever- ever-ever in my life been so turned off on having kids- I heard shiz I never wanted to hear in my life. 

Then to make matters worse, the next day I went to visit a friend who just gave birth and saw a picture of the babies head coming out of... OUCH!!! Then she showed me what looked like a enlarged maxi pad...I'm like what the hell is this for-I don't know squat about the after effects of having a baby-shoot, or even taking care of a baby....well at least I didn't until I was corrupted by a bunch of mamas! Thanks girls...The pad turned out to be an ice pack people, ya know for that particular sore area-ugghhhh!! 

At 20-something I stand by my word when I say I plan on waiting for as long as I can before I start to have weird things happen to my body...or as my brother says "Just like milk, when my expiration date expires".

ONE, TWO...HUE HEFNER'S COMING FOR YOU

I can't believe it took Heidi Pratt this long to pose for Playboy...I mean doesn't everyone who considers themself a religious chrisitan pose nude for everyone to see? Heidi must be reading Spencer's version of the bible.

Details of her Playboy photos are, um, scant: "There is nudity. It's tasteful – she had a lot of fun with it," says a second source. A rep for the magazine had no comment, and Montag's rep was not immediately available to respond to questions. – Jennifer Garcia

PRETTY DARN FUNNY-PARODY OF "I'M A CELEBRITY, GET ME OUT OF HERE"

COCKTAIL AND RAY J ARE OVA!

Cocktail is all butt hurt that Ray J couldn't be faithful to just her....and just like any other stupid girl, she tried to change him...he just wasn't that in to her, it was obvious on the show "For the Love of Ray J".  She tells all in her interview with bossip:

My whole experience with Ray J was an emotional roller coaster. I knew that going into the show to date him would be a challenge but what I didn’t expect was to fall for him as hard as I did.

I had my doubts about finding love on a reality show, but you would have to be in my shoes and go through the situations, intimate conversations, and having production drill Love, Love, Love into your head everyday really to understand the mind trip it takes you on.

Aside from Ray’s looks and success he is a truly amazing person. Although he tends to have that “Hollywood bad boy” swag, he is very down to earth, giving, considerate, kind, and funny. Simply put, he stole my heart.

Just like any other relationship we took it day by day. We would hang out, have fun, laugh, share stories, and watch TV. Over time as we got to know each other more and more he would tell me things and often times they would hurt my feelings. I guess the brutal truth about him not being exclusive with me and still “hooking up” with girls made me realize that it wasn’t going to work. I hate feeling like I failed and let’s be real no woman likes to quit a relationship so I tried to stick it out. I wanted to be his only one not just his number one.

After awhile Ray eventually realized that I was truly genuine and sat me down to tell me that we were not going to work out. Then the Season 2 bomb was dropped on me. What makes me mad is that I asked him if there was going to be a season 2 and he lied to my face. He sweet talked me both times I asked. Aside from that, the breaking point was when we went on tour. He didn’t come back to the room at night and I heard the whispers about him being in other rooms with girls. It made me mad because he knew he could be honest with me but he chose not to be. At this point, I emotionally checked out.

I want to make it clear that I did not go on this show looking for fame. Those who know me know I live a pretty great life. When you go on a reality show it doesn’t matter what your intentions are because other people’s expectations take over and you just have to go with it. I am blessed that this show has opened up doors for me that weren’t there before and I plan on taking advantage of them for sure.

So thank you to the Bossip.com readers for checking this out. Bossip is by far my favorite source for updates and what’s new and hot. I don’t read anything else.

P.S. I have no problem with Tila Tequila. I honestly don’t know what her problem with me is but I don’t have one with her. If she wants to call me names, talk shit about me and be all “bad ass” on the internet that’s her right but I have more class than that. I think she’s great.

xoxo,

Cocktail

23rd SEASON OF REAL WORLD

This season of The Real World will be shot in Washington D.C.  Last season in New York sucked!  Was not feeling the cast one bit-big time snoozer! They need to stick to casting the same type of people they have in the past- those with strong personalities, usually those that think the world is against them or have some sort of messed up upbringing and people who care more about drinking and partying then they do anything else. I mean where else are we going to see a cast member get an STD test the next morning cause he/she doesn't remember the four-sum that happened the night before.  Look how long the show has been on air...if it ain't broke-Don't fix it!  

The Cancun Season that airs June 24th pretty much shows we are back on track:

Check out the D.C. house photos:

NOT SURE IF I SHOULD BE FLATTERED OR SCARED

So an old co-worker of mine sent me an email last night, a story he thought I would be interested in reading...a quick back story of his emails-I get the most random emails from him...every 2 weeks or so I get an email that reads: Happy Birthday Nefertiti....Usually I reply and say thank you-sure I'll roll with it. Ok so now he has outdone himself, he cleverly sumed up about 20 of my blog posts into a story:

Thanks Todd, I think (oops, did I just out you :-O)

His email:

Re: Hey Nefertiti (a.k.a. Cleo)‏

I read your insightful blog today...

I never knew you thought of yourself designated as Middle Eastern.

I always considered you simply designated as: a truly gorgeous woman.

Period.



Anyway, I had an interesting experience this morning you may be interested in:


I am at The Grove, just sipping coffee by Dupars, talking to Gordon Ramsay and Jon and Kate Gosselin while thumbing through the latest issue of "Duck Duck Goose" when suddenly, right out in front of me, I heard what sounded like You throwing up-


"BLUAARGHGHHHHH!!"


No, you weren't there, but I looked up and instead saw this completely terrified Arab man running out of Starbucks being chased by that no-good-two-faced-phony-Kristin Cavallari…and she was wielding a Gillette Mach 3 Turbo Razor while screaming at him.


Three Grove security guards started chasing the two of them to try and restore order but, wouldn’t-you-know-it (per usual), SpeiHeidi mucked up the pursuit as they got in the guards’ way while walking out of Pinkberry together.


I couldn’t believe it….they ruined the fun for everybody (yet again).
But, It didn’t really matter, though:


Because moments later, at the Newsstand, that filty-dirty-Kristin stopped in her slimy tracks when she smacked full-speed into an unsuspecting, but truly hot-goody-goody-Audrina Patridge who just happened to be reading an her own cover story article in Maxim magazine about strip pole dancing…


Anyway, afterward the Security Guards hauled off that Hollywood Hood Rat Cavallari to the pokey where she was later booked on attempted second degree assault with a men's electric razor and three counts of really bad acting.


Curiously, I heard the Arab Man tell the sweet-as-candy-non-boat-rocker-no-troublemaker-straight-laced-stand up gal Audrina that he knew from the moment he saw Kristin Cavallari’s “Hills” in-line at Starbucks, she would be nothing but BIG trouble but…although he tried to warn everybody else in line…nobody would listen to him!


Other than that, absolutely nothing happened at Farmers Market and The Grove this morning.

Meet Todd...ha, just goofing with ya!

OK HE'S GAY-SO WHAT!

Why is it such a huge topic whether or not American Idol contestant Adam Lambart is gay?  Holy shit people, leave it alone....he finally admits it in the new edition of Rolling Stone, as if we didn't already know.  Now can we all move on with our lives? 

“I don’t think it should be a surprise for anyone to hear that I’m gay,” 

“I’m proud of my sexuality,” Lambert adds. “I embrace it. It’s just another part of me.” 

KENDRA WILKINSON IS PREGGERS!

Former Girl Next Door is pregnant with fiance Hank Baskett's child.  Hank has got Kendra head over heels, that is what I am talking about...Kendra went from raging party girl to settling down and having a child.  This is what happens when you got a good man by your side! Maybe some of Kendra's excitement in her life will rub off on me, not the baby part, just excitement.

REALLY!?!?, I MARRIED A STRANGER

Even with arranged marriages, the bride and groom meet and at the least, exchange names and maybe their favorite colors, prior to the wedding.  That is not the case with this new deranged idea for a reality show titled "I Married A Stranger".  Apparently there are people out there desperate enough-or broke enough- to allow a television network, FOX, set up an arranged marriage to someone they don't even meet until the wedding.  This is pushing dating websites to a whole new level.  Hey a few more of these shows, the divorce rate will sky rocket to the top.  WIPEEE!!

I guess with all these creepy news stories of husbands killing their wives, you never really know who you are marrying anyway, right?
