Tiffany Pollard in talks with WWE

VH1 reality show star Tiffany “New York” Pollard is currently in talks with WWE about talking an active role in Wrestlemania. Those of you who have been waiting for New York to get choke slammed or maybe getting RKO’d and kicked in the side of the head by Randy Orton may finally get their wish.

PWTorch.com said that Tiffany may be involved in a storyline with her former reality show love interest, David “Punk” Otunga, from I Love New York 2.

Ms. Pollard’s television history includes Flavor of Love, I Love New York and New York Goes to Hollywood.

The smart marketing would be a crossover of both shows, with New York rehearsing for the WWE on her show, and WWE featuring her on the Raw and Smackdown shows leading up to Wrestlemania.

Not that I watch wrestling or anything…

Tiffany Pollard Raises a Glass of Haterade to Jennifer Hudson and David Otunga

It’s seems like VH1 reality’s HBIC, Tiffany Pollard of I Love New York and New York Goes to Hollywood fame, is not at all happy with the impending nuptuals of her former reality show date, David “Punk” Otunga and former American Idol contestant, turned Oscar winner, Jennifer Hudson. She was recently interviewed by In Touch magazine, and she feels that the marriage won’t last, and that David Otunga is a bit of a gold-digging status seeker. She also seemed to think that something was wrong with the Harvard Law School grad because he was respectful enough not to “try anything” on her. From InTouchWeekly.com:

“He’s really loving being Mr. Jennifer Hudson. I think he’s loving the lavish things she brings to his life, he’s seeing the world due to Jennifer’s success,” Tiffany tells In Touch. “[But] can you love this person if they lose all of this tomorrow? She needs to find out. I just hope people are marrying each other for the right reasons.” New York’s not optimistic about the couple’s future. “It’s a mixed match, it won’t work,” she says. “He’ll be in her shadow like Al Reynolds was to Star Jones, likeStedman Graham is to Oprah.” There’s also a good reason David wasn’t the right match for Tiffany on I Love New York 2. “When we were in Miami together, he didn’t even try anything [on me]!” she says. “Maybe I wasn’t his type, maybe I wasn’t big enough for him.” “His heart is way big,” Tiffany says of David, who proposed to Jennifer after dating less than a year. “Two weeks ago, I ran into [Jennifer and David] and I didn’t say much,” reveals Tiffany. “I said ‘Goodbye, Punk!’ and she looked at me like ‘What!’ I know his name’s David, but I call him Punk.”

Haterade is a hell of a drink.

Tiffany Pollard Speaks Out on “Charm School” and Reality TV in Her Life

It wouldn’t be August without a Tiffany “New York” Pollard reality show, would it?  New York has done four reality shows for VH1 in two years, and made an appearance in Flavor of Love Girls: Charm School, and will drop by I Love Money before all is said and done. And just when you think there is nothing left for her to do, except maybe another I Love New York, the network has found another reality tv vehicle for her in New York Goes to Hollywood, which airs tonight at 10:00 PM.

Recently The L.A. Times interviewed Tiffany, and as usual, she was quite outspoken. She admits that she is actually addicted to watching reality tv herself, and feels that it “can be a lesson on how not to act.”  And it doesn’t matter to her if people also see her behavior on television as an example of bad conduct, because she doesn’t see herself as a role model

She also had some definite opinions about Mo’Nique the host of  the first season of Charm School. She feels that Mo’Nique had very unrealistic and rigid views on how young women are to conduct themselves, and perceived that her main concern was black representation, when it came to the women of color on the show. She also talks about what it is like to pursue her acting career, and how being on reality television has changed her life.

The Wedding Is Off: Tiffany Pollard and Taylor Made Split

Well, they said it wouldn’t last…and they were right. Tiffany Pollard of Flavor of Love and I Love New York notoriety and George Weisberger, the man she chose on I Love New York 2 have broken up.

The couple who had been living together with Weisberger (known as “Tailor Made”) and his daughter since her dating reality show stopped taping  last summer. On the reunion show, Tailor Made proposed and Tiffany accepted. There were rumors that the two would be married in Las Vegas in February, but it never happened.

Throughout the couple’s relationship there have been rumors of infidelity on both sides, with reports of Tailor Made’s drunken macking of women in clubs and a sex tape that circulated in the internet that was supposed to be New York, even though it did not really look like her.

Reliable sources say that the real reason for the break up was caused by their career aspirations, but mostly by the demands of Weisberger’s career. He is established in the fashion community, and worked at Calvin Klein.. He quit that job to do I Love New York 2, but when the show ended, he was hired by Mark Ecko, which kept him away from home very often, leaving Tiffany by herself frequently. The relationship began to suffer. Sources say that part of the problem was that Tiffany was not used to being with a man with a real career.

Although the couple split at the end of this winter, they continued to  pretend to be together for the sake of VH1. The “breakup” will be shown on Pollard’s new reality show, New York Goes Hollywood. Rumor has it that he will be caught “cheating”. Even though they weren’t together at the time, and it’s clear that their television drama is going to be purely dramatic and ficticious, sources say that Tailor Made went along with it out of respect for New York.

Flavor of Love Spinoff Ditches the “Love” Pretense

Finally, VH1 has come up with a spinoff of their “love” reality shows that totally throws the, “Are you here for me?” question out the window. This summer the cable network will be launching their new show, “I Love Money.”

Honestly, we all knew that everyone on Flavor of Love, Rock of Love, and I Love New York was not there for love. It was always a joke when Flav or New York would suddenly suspect that a contestant was not “there for them”, because everyone was there to boost their careers, or at least get recognized on the street and asked to host parties.

According to Variety.com, former contestants of Flavor of Love, Rock of Love and I Love New York will be competing in a series of reality show competitions, not for fake tv love, but cash prizes. The show has already been filmed, and the casting special is set to air on July 6th, and the series will debut on July 13. Carmelo Anthony’s baby’s mama and VH1 Flavor of Love reunion host, Alani “La La” Vasquez will host the show.

Tiffany Pollard’s Gets Another VH1 Show

 tiffnypollard.jpg

When is New York located on the West Coast? When Tiffany Pollard pursues her career in Hollywood. VH1 has extended Tiffany’s fifteen minutes of reality show fame by following the pursuit of her acting career in a new show called, New York Goes to Hollywood.

The show, which starts filming by the end of the month will show viewers New York as she tries to make the big time as an actress in L.A. However, according to BuddyTV, VH1 is having a bit of trouble casting the drama queen’s manager, and getting celebrities to do cameos. The 10 episode show will cover the span of a month.

New York first made her reality tv appearance as the over-the-top contestant vying for rapper/hype man Flavor Flav’s attention in Flavor of Love. After losing out at the end, she came back even crazier in Flavor of Love 2, only to be dumped again at the end by Flav. This led to a spin-off of her own dating reality show, I Love New York, where she found love, but was kicked to the curb once again, this time at her reunion show. She is currently living with and engaged to fashion executive George “Tailor Made” Weisberger, her romantic choice on I Love New York 2.
