Scary, right?
I attended the Flavor of Love 2 reunion taping in September in L.A. This was about the extent of my encounter with New York. I'll treasure it always.
Anyway, I wrote an extremely long, picture-filled post on the Celebreality blog about my experience on set, meeting all the girls and whatever. If you like my writing and don't have anything to do for four hours, you might want to check it out. Or, maybe you hate me for selling out. That's OK, too.
I think I'm going to start collecting pictures with (and the trust of) sub-list "celebs," and become sort of a Bizarro Perez. Expect fourfour to be soon riddled with posts that begin like, "My good friend Bridget the Midget told me..." or, "I was having a fabulous lunch of Kraft Macaroni and Cheese in the spacious condo of the Eric Nies the other day, when..." Exciting times are upon us!
First bitch!!! fuck me?

I love you. Don't care if you're gay. I love you and your cat. Let's ditch your hot boyfriend and run away together. OMG I stayed up late just to watch that crazy bitch. They made TV for her!

This picture is right up there with the photo you got with Mary Carey. Celeb-hilarity.

You're pretty.
And, wait, you took a picture with Mariah Carey? How'd I miss that?

Mary! Not Mariah.

Oh, 'scuse me, Mary Carey.
Here in Canada, we call Kraft Macaroni and Cheese "Kraft Dinner." Awesome.

omg that behind the scenes look was fab - it's good to know these people aren't acting. Actually - I'm not so sure about that, but you know what I mean.
Anyway - You are THE BEST!

It actually looks like she's getting her photo taken with you (i.e. you're the celebrity). You should've put on a matching weave.

Rich you are still the hunkiest chunk in all of cyberspace.
Posted by: Gary | October 31, 2006 at 03:57 PM
Your blog is stale these days. I think you'll get it back, but the sparkle's been gone for a little while now. You're probably burnt out, and this paid gig probably isn't helping matters.
Posted by: pepper | October 31, 2006 at 04:19 PM
It's true. I blame it almost entirely on the Project Runway-ANTM intersection. I'm happy those days are over. I really do have a lot more that I want to talk about.
Posted by: Rich | October 31, 2006 at 04:23 PM
.....i had no idea you were so hot. hottest blogger yet? ;) i say that with good intentions.
Posted by: gil | October 31, 2006 at 04:34 PM
IS THAT YOUUUU? CHEESE AND RICE you're hot! Did I mention that you're hot? The fuck? How did you keep your hotness undercover this long? You are SMO-KING!
How married are you to this whole gay thing? Can I be your hag? Or stalker? Something????

does New York's skin burn to the touch?
What does she smell like?
Posted by: whatwouldjanicedickinsondo | October 31, 2006 at 04:44 PM
Rich - after I read this sentence on your celebreality blog, I couldn't breathe for 2 minutes because I was laughing too hard:
"I think this shot of Bootz really says everything. It's a dignified portrait -- Whistler's Mother has nothing on Bootz."
I mean, come on, you truly are the hottest blogger ever - both in talent and in looks
Posted by: Amber | October 31, 2006 at 05:04 PM
Naw, New York doesn't give you a rash or anything. Or at least, not any kind that I could contract. I don't remember how she smelled, but it wasn't offensive. Bootz smelled really good, though. I told her that, too.
Posted by: Rich | October 31, 2006 at 05:13 PM
I think your most recent ANTM post refutes all accusations of stalesness. Too funny!
Posted by: Lisa | October 31, 2006 at 05:20 PM
Rich-So do you think NY is real or what? I thought her and her mother were actors. They have to be faking us out, right?
Posted by: Ryan | October 31, 2006 at 05:22 PM
UMM...that was the best commentary I have read thus far...that was great. I admire you...your my hero
Posted by: SoPocahontas | October 31, 2006 at 05:29 PM
i love that delishus won... is it possible that real warmth and light win, even on hollywood, sometimes? like how ruben studdard actually beat clay fair and square in spite of the post-decision press all going to clay?
i'll take NY over clay ANY DAY though. her show is the reason i need my own TV.
anyway rich, you are, as usual, the one to make a better day so let's start livin...
Posted by: | October 31, 2006 at 05:41 PM
I really can't answer that (if that answers your question)!
But really, New York has never been less than New York with me. Except she's been, you know, nice.
Posted by: Rich | October 31, 2006 at 05:42 PM
I tried to leave a comment on Celebreality about the recap and it doesn't take...
Posted by: xnowhereboyx | October 31, 2006 at 06:18 PM
First off, how cute are you? Secondly, Eric Nies! Man, how hot for him I was. Why did I just type that like Yoda? Wonder what happened to him, I had great hopes for him and Julie from Alabama. Anyhow, New York makes my teeth ache, she's like tin foil stuck in chewing gum.
