Hush, Hush, Pass: Reality Bites

survivor.jpg

It's gonna be on and poppin' on the next season of Survivor. Looking to shake things up and add some much-needed diversity to the cast, the tribes will be divided along black, white, Latino, and Asian racial lines when it lands on the Cook Isands in the South Pacific.

This should be interesting. Not as interesting if Survivor were set in the ghetto, and contestants had to dodge bullets, avoid the po-po, and make a dollar out of fifteen cents, but it should make for some good TV and watercooler conversations.

Dividing the tribes up by race is fine and all, but VC would like to see a Black celebrity edition of Survivor one day. Can't you see Jay-Z , Beyonce, 50 Cent, and Kobe Bryant in one tribe with R. Kelly, Letoya Luckett, Vivica Fox and Shaquille O'Neal in another? Then again, there may not be any survivors on that island once it's all over.

The calamity that is Flavor of Love 2 continues to wreck shop on VH1. Three more young ladies broads were eliminated on this week's show. Boring Tiger and the infamous Somethin' aka Poopy Longstockings didn't get clocks and confused Payshyntz refused to accept her clock, a Flavor of Love first. Nine chicks are still in it to win it and while we wait to find out their fate with Flavor Flav we can peep Like Dat's "celebrity" blog over on Black Voices. Enjoy those 15 minutes, girl. Still hanging on to her 15 minutes, season one contestant Hottie is sharing her nonsense two cents over on her BET blog.

Fresh off of shaking his money maker on the last season of Dancing With the Stars, Jerry Rice wants to do more reality TV. Newly retired from the NFL, the record holder is currently shopping a reality show concept around to various networks. As long as it's not the Flavor of Jerry, we're cool.

Ive never watched Survivor a day in my life, but if this whole racial thing goes through--you better believe I'm gonna tune in. Can't wait to see the race war (complete with racial slurs and everything) that ensures...

It's sad that television has to stoop to this level to get ratings. But then again, it's getting my attention, so the shit is obviously working.

But somehow I feel like I'm being tricked into taking part in some Bamboozled/Dancing In September type strategy...
