Engagement News for Fergie, New York
Despite turning down a proposal from George “Tailor Made” Weisgerber on the recent finale of her show, People is reporting that Tiffany “New York” Pollard recently had a change of heart. After selecting George at the end of I Love New York 2’s second season, Pollard, 25, told her suitor she wanted to wait before agreeing to any nuptials. Although he agreed to wait the requested 24-months, the attention-seeking
lovesick Weisgerber, 32, decided to try again anyway. Fortunately, it turns out the 2nd-time was a charm. (Let’s just hope the same can be said of this engagement; New York’s season one betrothal only lasted a few months.) Fans of the series can witness the awkward/romantic moment for themselves when I Love New York 2’s reunion special airs on January 6.
Meanwhile, another star familiar to the viewers of the cable channel has news of her own to celebrate. Fergie, 2007’s It Girl, just became engaged to actor Josh Duhamel. The Black Eyed Peas singer, 32, and star of Las Vegas, 35, have been together for three years. The couple started dating shortly after she made an appearance on his NBC show.

Casting Underway for Second ‘I Love New York’
Posted by Wendy Michaels Categories: Prime Time, Reality, Cable, Cable/Satellite,
Based on the success of VH1’s I Love New York, they’re planning on doing it all over again. To me, this show is painful to watch, but I suppose there’s a certain level of entertainment. Tiffany “New York” Pollard ended the first season by selecting Patrick “Tango” Hunter. He proposed to her on the finale, but later rescinded the offer on the reunion special. Isn’t that convenient? If she’s not engaged, and now she’s heartbroken that her top choice dumped her… well she has no choice but to pick a new suitor on a new season. Clever! Add to that the rumors that she and her mother are both actresses… well, I guess that actually doesn’t have much of an impact on a reality show, really. The new twist this go around is that five of the contestants will be selected by fans at ilovenewyork2.com. If you want to throw your hat into the ring, submit a video, bio and photos for consideration. Casting calls will also take place in Los Angeles, New York, Miami, New Orleans, Chicago, Detroit, and Nashville.

‘I Love New York’ Down to Six Finalists
Posted by Wendy Michaels Categories: Reality, Cable,
And then there were six. Six crazy dudes vying for the attention of Tiffany “New York” Pollard. This time, she had the men fight it out in basketball and boxing before making another cut. The latest victim was Rico, who never even got to have a date with Tiffany. She matched each suitor up for a one-on-one game against WNBA player Tamara Moore. If they could score before her, they took a place in the “winners circle”. Only two guys scored on Moore, resulting in a duel for a date with New York. White Boy won the coveted prize, with Rico ending up the loser. In the end, Rico was cut loose, with New York saying he was a “young boy.” He got the last word when he said her choice was “crap.” Ahhh, love. VH1 celebreality style.

Move over Flavor Flav. There’s new VH1 ratings royalty in town. None other than your castoff—not once, but twice—Tiffany “New York” Pollard.

The series premiere on Monday, January 8th had the most viewers of any other premiere on VH1. “New York” displayed so much personality on both seasons of Flavor of Love that VH1 called her in for her own series. The premise is a spin on Flavor of Love, with New York choosing from a herd of eligible bachelors. The new show has paid off for VH1, drawing 4.4 million viewers and overall earning the prize for the highest-rated cable program on Monday. The debut saw New York cutting the first five bachelors.
