In Case You Missed It: Super Bowl XLVI (Highlights)
Some are calling Super Bowl 46 the greatest in Super Bowl history. It was certainly the first Super Bowl in recent memory where the commercials didn’t upstage the game on the field. (This year’s commercials were too numerous and too boring to remember.)
Super Bowl 46 was the 2nd meeting of the NY Giants and the New England Patriots, and the 2nd time the Giants came out on top. It was also the first (and probably the last) super bowl for hapless wide receiver Chad “Ochocinco” Johnson whose off-the-field antics didn’t endear him to NE coach Tom Belichick.
It’s almost certain that Belichick will unload Ochocinco after spending $6 million on him in a trade with the Bengals. No team will sign Ochocinco which will give him more time to plan his fake wedding to reality TV star Evelyn Lozada this Summer. Ocho and Evelyn had better take note of the fallout from Kim Kardashian and Kris Humprhies’ fake made-for-TV wedding, which didn’t go over well with the fans.

Yandy Explains Why There is No Love and Hip Hop Reunion
In Monday’s special episode of VH1′s reality series ‘Love and Hip Hop‘ titled “Reality Check,” Yandy Smith, aka Don King, confirms our suspicions that she was paid to “play a role” and stir up drama on the show.
Yandy sits down with the show’s messy producer Mona Scott Young to explain the conflict between herself and Jim Jones’ fiery fiancee, Chrissy Lampkin.
Apparently it was Chrissy’s idea to bring Yandy on the show originally. But tempers flared behind the scenes when Chrissy found out that Scott expanded Yandy’s “role” — giving Yandy more screen time than her.
“You were funny, you were charismatic, we wanted to see more of Yandy,” says Scott justifying why she expanded Yandy’s role.
Scott and Yandy illustrate the sneaky, shady back room dealings that go on between certain reality show cast members who kiss the producer’s ass to get more valuable screen time.
As a result, there will be no Love & Hip Hop Reunion show because Chrissy and Yandy hate each other too much to be in the same room together.
The following video clip includes a rant by Chrissy toward Yandy who must have forgotten whose coattail she rode in on.
“B*tch, you on MY show!” says an angry Chrissy.

Celebrity Seed: La La and Carmelo Anthony
It should have been a relaxing day on the Beach in Miami for media personality La La Anthony and her son Kiyan. But instead Kiyan had to contend with the disruption of reality TV cameras as he played in the sand and surf.
LaLa was shooting scenes for her VH1 reality show, La La’s Full Court Life on the beach today. Although he receives a paycheck for being his mommy’s prop, Kiyan doesn’t have a say in the decision to be in the show — but his father does. Carmelo Anthony doesn’t want anything to do with the show, and friends say he allows La La to exploit Kiyan on the show “to keep the peace at home.”

T.I. and Tiny Remember Don Cornelius; Discuss Baby Rumor
Rap mogul T.I. and his wife, Tameka “Tiny” Harris, remembered Don Cornelius during their visit to ’106 & Park’.
“For me, it was about him creating a platform for us to be able to see ourselves,” said Tip. “Every Saturday morning after cartoons went off, I was waiting and hoping Run-DMC or somebody was on there. If not for him, we wouldn’t have had that. And not just my generation, but generations before me.”
From Miss Xpose:
Tiny recalled her appearance on the show in the ’90s with her group Xscape. “When I first started out, we were on ‘Soul Train’ and it was a great experience,” she said. “It was the first time I realized that they lip-sync, so it was something different, but I loved it. He paved the way for a lot of us to make it and be seen.”
The couple also addressed rumors that they’re expecting another child. “Ya’ll know I can’t give it away,” said Tiny, before T.I. interrupted to tell them to tune in to their VH1 show, “T.I. and Tiny: The Family Hustle,” to find out.
While we’re on the subject, Tiny is looking for a licensed nail tech for her new location. You must be licensed in the state of Georgia. (See new post).
Sneak Peek: Braxton Family Values, Ep 12, Caught Red Handed
In tonight’s dramatic episode of WEtv’s Braxton Family Values, Trina Braxton and her estranged husband, Gabe Solis, tackle his infidelities during an emotional therapy session with TV Dr. Sherry.
“I caught Gabe red handedly acting inappropriately on a social network site with a female that he knew,” explained Trina.
Gabe’s cheating ways came to light on Twitter.com when a woman tweeted photos of him exposing himself on Skype.
But when it was Gabe’s turn to speak, he avoided the issue of exposing himself online.
In typical canine behavior, Gabe blamed the other woman for tempting him with a bone. “I took the bait,” he said. Gabe has since deleted his Twitter page.
Although he remains in denial about his voyeuristic behavior, Gabe did admit to Dr. Sherry that he didn’t do what a married man should have done.
In an interview last month, Trina, who has children from a previous relationship, revealed that she and Gabe separated a year ago. Their Johns Creek, GA home is still on the market.
Watch the sneak peek of tonight’s episode after the break.
