She wasn’t a favorite in the competition, particularly in the eyes of the judges. But from week to week, Syesha Mercado won just enough fans to save her from elimination and give her a sweet top 3 spot this season. She’s up against some tough competition with the David’s, who ARE the favorites to win. It would take a miracle for her to sail past Cook, who’s gained rock star status, and Archuleta, who, let’s be serious, has the face and the voice of an angel. But if you vote for her, it could happen. Does Syesha have a chance?

Dominique had the drive to be “America’s Next Top Model.” Well, so she says. But her strong looks (read: tranny, read: drag queenish - you get it) cost her the spot last night. At the end of the day, if you can’t pull off a Covergirl ad, you can forget it in this competition. So now it’s between the mean African chick (Fatima), Anya and Whitney, who has gotten farther than any plus-sized model in “Top Model” history! Who do you think will take the crown?

So, Flav flies the remaining three to the romantical city of Paris, where the plotting, the backstabbing and the drama never lets up. Sinceer is in full form, making Black look like a crazy stalker chick. And surprise, Flav buys it. But Black’s got a trick up her sleeve, too, and on a date with Flav, tells him that Seesinz remarked that she’s on the show for the drama. Bad move, Seesinz. Flav is hurt by the news, and sends Seesinz packing. But wait. What’s this? Flav waves his magic wand and …

Voila! Thing 2 reappears! “Bonjour, beeyotches!” she says, taking her spot in the line. What could possibly come of this? Did Thing 2 deserve to come back? Was Seesinz too good for Flav anyway?

The new cast of BET’s “Baldwin Hills” recently took part in a photo shoot in Los Angeles. Get a firsthand recap from one of the newest members to the cast, Justin.

Mornings are always hard for me, so it was really tough that the cast photo shoot started at 8 a.m. But, you know your boy stays ready. Taking pics really isn’t anything new to me.

Sasa, the stylist on set, hooked us all up. Everybody was fitted. The girls were poppin’, especially Aunjel, in her outfit. We can all see track did her good.

Even with the cool clothes, we were all burning up. The heat was killing us. To take our mind off the heat, Gerren hooked up her iPod to the stereo, which made the shoot go along quicker.

At the second location, we did the photo shoot inside a studio where it was STILL hot! But they looked out, and treated us all to some Jamba Juice. The second outfit we did was the “Fresh Prince” look. Not to sound like R. Kel, but I definitely was feeling the little “school-girl” look on the ladies. I’m not a preppy dude, and it wasn’t my style, so I flipped the outfit with some jeans, loosened up my tie a bit, rocked my signature hat and kept it movin’.

The theme shots they had us doing were hilarious. Moriah was caught doing his “love-triangle” shot with Gerren and Lor’Rena. My boy Mo was looking nervous. Then out of nowhere, Sal, Gerren, and Ashley got it poppin’ and turned it up with some dancing. In between shots, I kept myself busy messing around on MySpace and watching the Laker game. Go Lakers!

In all, the shoot was cool, and we all had fun. With all of us in the same room, I’m glad no drama kicked off.

Say what you want about Sinceer. She’s at least a smart cookie, painting a picture of Thing 2 as a needy puppy who needs someone to latch onto, like her and Thing 1, her twin sister. It worked, cuz Thing 2 got the boot. That leaves Black, Seesinz and Sinceer the lucky last three who get a romantic vacation in Paris with Flav. Out of the threesome, Seesinz is the right choice. She’s intelligent and Flav’s mom took to her. Even Flav said he could picture her in his family. But I think Black will take it in the end. She has the biggest knockers. Why else? Sinceer. Sinceer is scary, like slash-your-tires scary. Here’s what she said she’d do if Flav didn’t clock her: “I’ll slip into his house and snip off his testicles in the middle of the night.” Alrighty then….

Get ready to hear the phrase “What’cha talkin’ ’bout, Judge Toler?” this week.

Former child actor Gary Coleman will be appearing on the nationally syndicated court show “Divorce Court” on May 1 and May 2.
Coleman married 22-year-old Shannon Price in 2007 but after just one year, the couple is headed towards splitsville and will appear on the court show because of marital difficulties.

Let’s hope Ashy Gary baths in lotion before he appears in front of the camera.

I can’t even imagine what Price saw in the 40-year-old broke actor, who claims that despite his marriage, he’s still a virgin.

Either way, this is must-see television for this week.

After disappearing for over 24 hours, “That’s So Raven” actor Orlando Brown reemerged and issued a statement regarding his actions:

“It was wrong for me not to inform my manager … about my whereabouts, especially when I am usually so routine and big on communication, but I felt a little lost and needed to get away,” Brown said in a statement issued by his publicist, Elayne Rivers.

Where does a 20-year-old C-level actor go when he wants to get away?

Brown went on to say that he was upset on how “entertainers are so disrespected at times.”

When I think entertainer, Orlando Brown is not the person who pops in my mind.

This poor kid seems to have issues.

He should just go out back and light one up again.

Get ready for a lot of “How yooooooou doooooooin” in the daytime.

Nationally syndicated radio talk-show host Wendy Williams is rolling out a daily, one-hour talk show on FOX affiliates.

As if five hours a day wasn’t enough of the tranny-looking DJ.

“The Wendy Williams Show” will be tested in four markets across the United States (Los Angeles, Detroit, New York and Dallas) starting the week of July 14 for six-weeks.

According to the Hollywood Reporter, the live show “will feature Williams’ commentary on celebrity gossip and news events, as well as interviews, fashion and advice segments.”

Williams husband, Kevin Hunter, is an executive producer along with Wendy.

I’m guessing Nicole Spence won’t be involved in this one.

Six weeks is enough time to gauge the reaction, but I don’t see her crossing over to a daytime market made up of mostly White suburban soccer moms.

Just look at her.

She’s one scary woman.

Deion Sanders has been described as many things.

Reality television star was probably never one of them until now.

“Deion & Pilar: Prime Time Love” (Tuesdays 10:30 p.m. on Oxygen) takes a look inside the private life of Sanders, wife Pilar, and their five children on the family’s gigantic 40,000 square foot house in Prosper, Texas.

Reality television shows seem to be the new trend these days, so it shouldn’t come as a shock that Deion has his own show.

We all know Deion Sanders loves Deion Sanders - - they don’t call him “Prime Time” for nothing.

The former NFL and MLB great comes off in the first two episodes as a lazy, self-centered husband, justifying his behavior for the fact that he brings in the paper.

Way to make all husbands look bad, Deion.

Poor Pilar has the task of running after five children, three that she shares with Sanders and two Deion had from a prior marriage.

If you are jonesing for a dose of fresh reality television and you are fed up with that phony, scripted Snoop Dogg “Father Hood” mess, “Prime Time Love” is the show for you.

Women, just remember that all guys aren’t as lazy around the house as #21.

It was truly a “Color Purple” moment, when Flav chose to separate the twins during last night’s elimination. Except Flav was no “Mister.” The leopard cape-wearing Cassanova actually shed a tear before he gave Thing 2 her clock, sending Thing 1 on her merry way. She can blame her ex-boyfriend, one of many invited to the participate in a Neverwed Game, a take on the Newlywed Game. The ex gave Flav reason to believe he and Thing 1 had some unresolved business, so she got the boot. Now it’s down to the final five: Seesinz, Sinceer, Thing 2, Black and the 6′3″ sister Tree. Who do you think will win Flav’s “heart” this season?
