‘A Diva Moment’
June 10th, 2009
So I drop a few tears… yeah, and??? I mean, I’m not ashamed at all. It hurt my heart to see what I saw at Faye’s house. People often see me now and wonder why I walk with a chip on my shoulder, but it’s because I’ve lived through my version of Hell. I have been homeless before, and I also come from a broken home where my mother worked hours on end to provide for me and my brother. So for me, seeing Faye’s situation, a woman that was trying to do right, hit close to home. I just don’t think that anyone should have to live like that, especially not kids…
The best thing about this situation is the fact that my whole cast felt the same way. When we were given the choice between a cast trip or helping this woman and her kids, there wasn’t any discussion. It was a unanimous decision. WE ARE GOING TO HELP FAYE!!!
We bust our butts putting this house together, from bargaining for furniture, to shopping for groceries, to getting decorations for the house. The only thing was that when it came time to bring everything to the house and set it up… “Has anyone seen Milan???” Once again Milan has made a situation — that is supposed to be about helping others — into a diva moment. And it’s obvious that the house is getting tired of it…

THATZ A DIVA FOR U .. anyway datz all i gotta say fo now
As much as I cant stand Chris, I feel were he’s comin from. I know what its like to live like that. You just got to stay strong and find your way. Ok, back to the show, I really was trying to give Brandon the benefit of the doubt but this guy is about to lose some major cool points judging from next week episode. Stand up for yourself!! Ugghh!! Quit trying to play both sides of the fence. I do feel that they were wrong for leaving Milan but with Milan, what you see is what you get lol!! So am I surprise??? Umm not really…
Chris I feel were you coming from. I also come from a broken home mom working hard just for me and my two brothers just for we can have something good. It was wonderful how yall help Faye and her kids instead of going on the trip. God going to bless yall and Milan she should of help she was just thinking about herself but you never know one day you can wake up and be just like that you never know what will happen. Chris I cried when you start crying on the show I felt you, God Bless yall
i think that everyone in the house is cool. i love watching the show.The main person i like seeing on the show is kyle/paul/chris.Hope you be successful in life.
Why does Brandon when it comes to Kay, he can’t stand her all of a sudden, he acts like if no attention is on him he has to find other ways in getting attention. He is so messy and he thinks that he is so good looking, he needs to get over his self and take a long look in th mirror. I can’t stand him.
This is sad. But honestly these women should know to control themselves! Don’t get knocked up, if you are poor or barely above the poverty level. That’s why I’m almost 25 and have no kids. I want to be really financially safe [and married] before I start a family.
I can’t stand Milan. She’ll get her bad karma. So what if you haven’t eaten. You can wait a few more hours. Or even days. Selfish broad.
It was very nice to see the roommates come together for a good cause. I too became very emotional watching Faye talk about her living conditions. I’m so glad that you guys were able to help her, trust you all will be blessed for doing a good deed.
Now on to the Milan show…
Milan is truly a diva and she is VERY spoiled. I understand that she was hungry because she hadnt ate all day and would need some energy to help move, but she could have at least had the driver stop by a fast food restaurant really quick to get something to eat if there was nothing in the house to eat. This chick went all out and ordered some take out from a fancy restaurant knowing da*n well everybody was on a time limit and couldn’t wait on her. She is ridiculous and needs a reality check – honey you’re cute but not that cute and the world doesn’t revolve around you. Get over yourself because being a diva is not an attractive trait to have. At least not in my eyes and clearly your roommates agree.
I understand Milan needed to eat because when I get really hungry I become extremely irritated, but she just went about getting her food the wrong way. If you’re hungry you wont be picky, you’ll eat whatever you can get.
Did you guys see the preview for the next episode? Something went down between Kay and Brandon which I’m not surprised. Either they messed around or kissed before. I kinda missed it because I was talking to my sister and trying to watch it at the same time. I could be wrong but anyway I do know that they really get into it in the van. Kay was really going at Brandon so he must have struck a nerve. Could it be because he was telling the truth? DRAMAAAA! I knew something was up with them beefing all of a sudden. I mean that ish was random and came outta no where. If they were getting it in before the show I believe he may be jealous because she was getting it in with Paul and not him. I remember when they were arguing in the room he said she changed since she got on the show. Hmmmm? I am just assuming because obviously I dont know but I cant wait to see next weeks episode. JUICCYYYY!
Once again Milan acts like a selfish diva and shes not.I understand that you was hungry and junk but you couldve eat sumthin that wouldnt take that long 2 order.She probably did that on purpose b/c she know she didnt want 2 help faye.But god will bless all the others for heling out and faye will make it. And like i said i cant stand Brandon from the get go hes always switch sides,e want to talk $hit about kay..hes juss jealous dat kay moved on n i hope she get on him next week in dat van cuz im tired of his mouth.As for kay n pual idk wats goin on between dem i figured they wouldve been not talkin 2 eachother but i guess they put dat beside and helped faye out.
When I watched this episode I was shocked to see Faye. We went to school together yet have not seen each other in years. It is such a blessing that the cast is extending there help to help her out of this situation that she does not deserve to be in. I wish Faye all the best. She is a good woman with lots of blessing coming her way. Hold on Faye. God is good all the TIme!!! Be Blessed!!
Chris –
I applaud you. There ain’t no shame in dropping a few tears. Whether male or female, demonstrating compassion for others and expressing our common humanity is ALWAYS ALL GOOD!
From my vantage point you alone among the housemates have demonstrated leadership, strength, intelligence, compassion, sensitivity and a sense of humor. You were already my favorite cast member on the show and now that you have shared a bit about your own personal struggle I’m lovin’ you even more. Your story reminds me of one of my favorite quotes from Frederick Douglass. He said, “You are not judged by the height you have risen, but from the depth you have climbed.” You should be proud of yourself for the determination and perseverance you have already shown as a young man. I am proud to see such a beautiful and strong young black man in the making. I wish you all the best in college and whatever you pursue after graduation. I also hope your relationship with Tiffany continues to develop. She seems to be a very sweet girl.
As for Milan — I think someone needs to gently pull her coat. I’m guessing she’s spoiled and accustomed to folks marching to her tune. Folks like that are often oblivious to their own selfishness because they live in world where no one ever calls them on it. I think if the group points it out to Milan in courteous, respectful way she’ll see the light. I didn’t understand why she couldn’t go to the kitchen and get something to tide her over until the project with Faye was complete. It ain’t like she was gonna pass out or keel over if she didn’t get a full fledge meal right that minute. It is disheartening that Milan could not see Faye’s situation was far more pressing and clearly the priority for the day.
I really felt for Faye & God will bless her. I was glad that the cast came together for a good cause but I was really proud when they didn’t give it a thought about helping Faye instead of going on a trip….I would of done the same thing!! I just don’t know whats going wit milian, I mean come on u could of gotten something to eat but she was being really picky…don’t get me wrong I understand u have to eat but when you’re given a time limit on finishing something u just can’t expect them to wait on u b-cuz that won’t look good on yall part. She could of handled that differently from the way she did it. Now brandon…idk but he needs to quit running his mouth bout things n man up when u know he went back n told…can’t wait to see how this plays out in the next episode!!!!
First of all I would like to commend the cast on helping Faye and her children out instead of going on a trip. That was beautiful. My brother and I was raised in a single family household and our mother worked two jobs to provide for us. We didn’t always have everything we want but she did the best she could. To all wondering, my mother was married and got divorced and my father did not help her out at all. Brandon I was also very surprised and moved by your reaction to Faye’s situation. Maybe you are not all that bad. Just work on not being such a gossip and instigator. As for Milan, she was at home all day with Kyle and Brandon “supposedly” working. Why didn’t she eat then. Why did she wait until the last minute, when she knew everyone was ready to go over to the apartment to help move things in to want to eat. She did that because she did not want to help. God forbid if she broke a nail or got dirty in the process of helping someone who truly needs it. She is a selfish COW! Paul, Kay and Allison did not eat all day either but that did not stop them from helping and moving furniture. They did not eat until after the furniture was moved in. Milan deserves what she gets and I hope the roomates finally hit her with the truth next week.
aww chris that is so sweet(u do have kindness in ur heart and god will bless u for that
Love D’asijah <3 !!!!!!!
Chris there is nothing wrong with a grown man showing emotions. It just lets people see that you have a kind heart. And i agree that no one should have to live like that and its hard to be in that situation or even see someone in that situation. So i say dont be ashamed of connecting with her situation.
I say , “more power to yall”. More of us young people need to step up in this day in age.
