TV BIT: VH1 PRESENTS “FOR THE LOVE OF RAY J”
Tuesday, January 13, 2009

Well looky here - VH1 found a suitable replacement for “Flavor Of Love” fans with this new series coming from Brandy’s brother Ray J. Its his turn to find his main squeeze, with “For The Love Of Ray J”, which is set to debut on VH1, Feb 2nd.
The cable channel recently revealed the 14 contestants competing for the playboy’s heart. You may recognize a few of them from some candids we posted in November that featured Ray J and the group on a shopping date in Hollywood.
Catch the show when it premieres February 2nd at 10:30/9:30c…it looks to be an entertaining one.
See all of the contestants over at vh1.com…

This man is unbelivably talentless, his rendition of the star spangled banner made my ears bleed. He’s famous for having a successful sister and dating a few whores.
What girl would actually want Ray j pissing on them? Its amazing what some people will do for 15 seconds of fame.
And I thought he was pissing on, oh dating Whitney houston. I guess thats over then

I really dont care for Ray-J, but the females posted look real good unlike Flava of Love and Real Chance of Love females. VH1 just making money off the same gimmick thats worked for them I guess.

I was just telling my roommate last night after watching the previews that I hope this is the end of the reality love shows on VH1. Every show Ray J has been apart of, when they add him, it gets canceled. Ex: Added him to Moesha that season it got canceled, added him to One on One the show got canceled, and I hope they stop with this. Besides, I thought he was with Whitney?

Let me give you guys something to think about because I see overwhelmingly people do not want this sort of show. I hate these sorts of shows, and the coonery it represents, but I will say it again, we as a people need to find a way to create better job opportunities for one another in Hollywood. Look at how all these tired white actors even after they are has beens find a way to create opportunity. I’ve been preaching for years that the blacks who have connections, Halle, Will, yes, even Beyonce, need to find a way to spread that spotlight so perhaps we can cut down on ignorance such as this. If you find a legitimate role or job, these sort of shows cannot survive. Just something to think about. I am glad to see that many of you understand that this is not the thing to do.

I’m bout sick of all these I’m Looking for Love T.V. shows too. Looks as if they will never end. Like Real Chance for Love. Chance will be back by himself i’m sure since he couldn’t find love….whateva. He could have saved those tears, we all know they were tears of joy for the second show he is getting outta this.

Please….why since Ray J screwed Kim Kardashian and video taped it, his little a$$ is a pimp all of a sudden? Give me a break. I am so tired of VH1 exploiting dumb a$$ desperate black women and men fighting each other over someone that they don’t even know. It is just pathetic. I will not give it the time of day. How many times are they going to do the same dum a$$ show? Like the BS they have on now, Real Chance with that Vampire from Brooklyn/ Nick Ashford looking fool.

I’ve been saying the exact thing #54. Someone who already has their foot in the door is going to have to help lead better quality TV for blacks, whether it be financing the shows or directing it themselves. I listened to an interview of movie director Bill Duke yesterday and he said the entertainment heads don’t want to pay for scripts and shows they don’t think will make money. I think that’s true and also that they want to keep reinforcing the same stereotypes. Shows like this is the type of stuff that gets high ratings, so that’s why it keeps getting repeated. Tyler Perry just bought a movie studio, he’s been doing the same old thing too, but at least he owns a studio. That’s a start, hopefully he can really make an impact with that power in the future.
LOL. You know what you’re right #42, every show Ray J was suddenly added to became cancelled. Maybe his aura can end this exploitative junk.

You know what. Trashy reality shows are my guilty pleasure. I’m not ashamed to admit it. I watch em ALL. Black…White…whomever.
These people don’t respresent me and they are NO reflection to MY character.
It’s not the blame of Will…and other black celebrities. These people are ignorant enough to sign up. They are ignorant enough to act a coonafied fool. They are ignorant enough to show their ass on TV.
NO ONE is forcing these people to go on a reality show and NO ONE is forcing them to act the way they do.

I can’t even be mad at Ray J for his hustle. If VH1 execs wanna throw millions his way, why not take it. I do agree that this reality nonsense has got to stop, but people who complain are still the ones viewing it every single time it comes on and therefore the ratings go through the roof and there is money to be made. If VH1 is dishing out checks - somebody is gonna bite back!

[...] Flavor Of Love is over, but VH1 felt it needed a replacement, so its new series is For The Love Of Ray J. You know, Brandy’s brother? The dude in Kim Kardashian’s sex tape? Yeah, I know: Downgrade. And when you’re talking about Flavor Flav, it’s hard to believe. [Concrete Loop] [...]

#61 I couldn’t have said it better! *raising my hand* I too am addicted to the dramaedy of reality trash tv…. but I’m a channel flipper also so I don’t know days and times that the shows come on but if I pass something interesting I’m watching it.
I also have to add, no one is exploiting these women but themselves because if they didn’t sign up for money or fame there wouldn’t be anyone to exploit… it’s only responsible TV if all parties involved are responsible and accountable for their actions and role.
I actually like Ray J in all his arrogance and ego that he does for the camera….

Married people wear their wedding ring on the finger before the pinky on the left hand.. not the right hand.. that tramp ios wearing it on her right hand..
I watch all these shows bcux they make me laugh.. I love to see people make a fool out of themselves..
Ray-J is packing so that might be one of the reasons these girls are on the show..
why are all the reality love shows always have black woman acting a foola nd trashy.. but the bachelor all the woman act like woman and respectable?

I saw a preview of this show and it looks to be even more raunchy than Flav. of Love , I Love NY & Real Chance at Love put together! Something i most definetly will not be letting my 11 year old daughter watch. To each his/her own i guess, but I dont want her thinking that as a female, this is how your suppose to be/act/dress to be accepted or noticed by men–NOR looking at Ray J thinking, this is the dream guy to have. Look at Obama! Set the bar that high! Ray J been needed to get somewhere and sit down though..lol.
