so why is VH1 pulling the plug on all of the shows he's involved in? Is there anything morally wrong with showing pre-recorded footage of someone who is an alleged murderer? What, they have standards?
a tad confused on the missing teeth and fingertips. um... i know that's what is commonly used to identify bodies, but only if they're pretty well decayed. doesn't help if you just leave it in a dumpster. a D- for body disposal technique.
... and that's what you get VH1 for recruiting for a show called "I love money".
@fuzzymuffins: It's a side-effect of folks who watch too muchLaw & Order and CSI. Suddenly armchair psychos think they know the "secrets" of how to get away with things.
This is the dirty underbelly of the fameball-reality TV game. People whose sense of the world around them and their place in it is so perpetually frustrated and so narcissistic and skewed that it is literally all about them, and everyone else is expendable.
@BookishLookish: Patience is so difficult for people today. For me, the journey is as important as the destination. Yes, the catch is beautiful, the control, the mastery, the money...
But sitting here drinking my appletini, reading your posts, learning your routines, slowly badgering my way back into your life, these are the real joys of my existence. Of course, I love the thrill of the hunt, catching your eye, winning your affection all over again, the personal take down. Watching you slowly lose control over your own life as you surrender yourself to me all over again, nothing beats it.
This has to be one of the most disturbing stories I have read in a long time (particularly the bit about the missing fingers and teeth). What I fail to understand is how a background check wouldn't include his past violent behaviours.
@kappakappaspankme: You know, I read a lot of true crime and the fact that he removed her teeth and fingers really, really creeps me out. That should say something.
@MissPeacock: I also read a lot of true crime, most of it for work, and he did a half-assed job. I mean, I'm sorry she was killed, but he's a fucking low-rent amateur mimicking a pro.
@kappakappaspankme: I assume you mean a VH1 background check? They wouldn't be able to have full casts for these shows if they didn't take some violent felons. In each and every season of "Rock of Love," "Flavor of Love" and "Real Chance of Love," there is at least one ho-testant with a felony record and/or one sentenced to anger management classes. One recent ho-testant (from "Rock of Love" and then "Charm School") is awaiting trial for attempted murder.
And now I'd like to shoot myself for knowing all of this, let alone sharing that in public.
Brian, we need to discuss G.I. Joe.
It was really just so bad. If my youth could be a corporeal being it would have thrown a Big Wheel right into the balls of the arrogant 40-year old nostalgia-blaspheming prick-fuck who greenlit that tripe, and all projects he's surely working on ruining forever in the future. Thundercats in CGI! shall royally destroy me.
@Spirit Fingers: Actually, G.I. Joe wasn't that bad, if you watch it like an 8-year-old boy. There were some cool battle scenes and chases and awesome secret bases and Sienna Miller giving catsuit realness. However, there was also no story, horrible performances, and some seriously crappy jokes. Don't expect too much from it.
@Brian Moylan: Yah, yah, bombs bursting, underwater bunkers and desert lairs. Fine. The 8-year-old girl (heh) thought some of the action was semi-cool. (Robo-Cop go-go Gadget suits!) Everything else, especially everything Channing Tatum, despite his physical yumminess, did was simply awful. And Marlon, Marlon...he so wanted this to be his Will Smith moment. Poor buddy. While Sienna filled out the catsuit expertly, the appearance of a catsuit at all, made many of us post-teeners chortle. Chick with the red hair would have made a better X-Men Rogue but then I just despise Anna Paquin. Always.
@Brian Moylan: Um, you get so friended for that. (Gawker writer who mentions Jem, awesomeness.) Not to say that I ever want a live action Jem movie (Of course I'll see it, dammit), no seriously, unless like Peter Jackson, Spielberg or some such does it then it will disappoint me, shame me, and just well steal another untethered piece of my 80's soul, and I've had just well enough of that.
@Spirit Fingers: Every Halloween I threaten to get my friends together to be "Jem and the Homograms" but I never get my act together. Maybe this is the year! We can't fuck it up any more than they ruined G.I. Joe.
There are far more revealing—and beautiful—photos from fashion shoots readily available online. He had an amazing physique in those days. But I guess the point is it’s embarrassing to have been a stripper. Why? My momma always said, if you got it, flaunt it.

Well said.
It's not quite The Running Man, where the carnage is broadcast, but we can see it from here.
