Rock of Love Bus: What Really Went Down at the Reunion!

Last night was the long-awaited reunion special for Season 3 of Rock of Love, called Rock of Love Bus. In the show, Bret Michaels went through 23 different woman, to finally select Taya as his rock of love. At the reunion Bret and Taya finally got to see each other again after 3 months and the rest of the cast was reunited and emotions flared up. Check out below and see what really went down!

*Constandina announced she recently got married. She also gave Bret a gift.

*Ashley and Farrah dissed Melissa when she mentioned that she "created The Blondetourage". Melissa then preceded to walk off the stage

*Gia stopped drinking [probably due to her appearance on Charm School] and Nikki said she has entered rehab.

*Brittaney [who gets booed by Marica] apologized to Natasha for their racial issues on the show.

*Kelsey calls out Natasha during the break and says she does porn. Natasha then yells out and says "six figures", meaning she makes $100,000+. Kelsey then yells out "OK, Nathaniel", causing Natasha to pounce from her chair and attack Kelsey. They began to brawl and due to editing, many of the violent scenes were removed. Both of the girls were then escorted out of the studio. Kelsey reportledy had her hair "pulled out" and she went to the hospital later that day.

*Mindy and Bret meet up and they share a long, dramatic kiss. They reconcile a bit but he still stays with his gut feeling about being with Taya.

*Taya comes out and she is booed by her fellow cast mates as she makes out with Bret. Beverly and Mindy call her out, but she puts everybody in their place. Her and Bret talk about their relationship, and though they insist they will stay together, it looked a bit fake.

The reunion was a bit disappointing as there were no interview segments with some of the show's key characters like Brittanya, Beverly and Jaime. The fight between Natasha and Kelsey was good, but it sucks the editing ruined it. I'm happy for Taya and Bret, and I hope they do stay together. This season was unforgettable, and I can't wait to see these girls on the spin-offs!

POST SHOW INTERVIEW: Taya [Rock of Love Bus]

On Sunday night's finale of Rock of Love Bus, Bret Michaels chose the Penthouse Pet Taya out of 20 women to be his final [?] rock of love. In her 2 interviews with Vh1 she talks about how she thinks the connection will last, her love for Bret, her job as a stripper, her feud with Beverly and Mindy, and her overall portrayal on the show. Her interview is packed with information, and if you have the time, it is a great read. Check out a excerpt below, and congratulations to Taya and her victory!

"Obviously, a few months is a long time not to see someone that you might be with or whatever. Do you still feel the way for Bret that you did when the show wrapped a few months ago?

The hard thing for me is that I’m the only girl from the show that leaves and has no closure. As messed up as it is that someone gets their heart broken, there is closure in heartbreak. You can move on. When you leave and you’re the winner, it’s a bittersweet thing. You’re emotionally involved and then you think, “I don’t know what’s going to happen. In the next six months when he’s on tour, maybe he’s going to find someone else. Maybe his feelings will change. The connection we’ve built may suffer.” And then add not being able to talk to anyone because you can’t give away the end of the show and you’re left festering with all these feelings.

Did the girls beat you down at all? You strike me as particularly sensitive.

In my real life, I bounce back and forth between working and my son. I don’t have a lot of close friends. In this situation, I liked a lot of the girls, actually. Even the ones that annoyed me: I got it. I got that they added value to the show. Obviously, I didn’t run in Ashley and Farrah’s circle, but there wasn’t a day that passed that I didn’t laugh at something they said or did. I still can’t stop saying, “Lame,” which makes me crazy. There’s something about their personalities that’s very entertaining. I had no beef with any specific girl. So, finding out after in everyone’s exit interviews that people had a big problem with me...I almost hate saying this because there is a cocky connotation to it, but I felt like it was almost because of a jealousy / threat issue. If you notice, a lot of the condemning of me came when it was clear that I had a connection with Bret.

How do you look back on your falling out with Mindy?

Mindy wasn’t at a happy place when she came on the show, and she shared a lot of that with me. I offered to open my home to her. I was a very, very good friend to Mindy. It’s especially hurtful watching the show, because I didn’t realize the magnitude of how badly she was rolling me under the bus, stabbing me in the back. I don’t think Mindy went in there with the intentions of hurting anybody. I’d like to think that she’s a good person. I think that she got caught up in the game of love. I think she had true feelings for Bret, but got to a point where she started strategizing. And that’s where she took a bad turn. That’s were she started sabotaging herself. It inadvertently started making her look bad, and that makes me sad. Mindy, in my opinion, is a good, sweet girl. I think I could have had a friend for life with her, had she not done what she did. Now I don’t know that I could ever trust her as a friend because of what she was willing to do."

POST SHOW INTERVIEWS: Buckwild [I Love Money 2]

& Mindy [Rock of Love Bus]

Last Monday had a harsh episode of I Love Money 2 with the departure of Buckwild tearing apart 20 Pack and Saaphyri's alliance. Rock of Love Bus' finale on Sunday was even harsher when Bret Michaels chose Taya and left Mindy in the shadows. Both of these vibrant girls being eliminated is a huge loss to reality TV. They both give much needed details, some of which might shock you. Check out the snippets below! Enjoy these!

Buckwild's Interview

"What do you think of 20 Pack?

I want to beat the fuck out of him.

You can appreciate that he was given a rough position, right?

No. He’s a fucking dumbass. He’s a weak-ass person. He didn’t even want to send me home. He wanted to send Angelique home. That would have been so easy: you came in dead last, goodbye. He was convinced later to send me home.

Wasn’t the way you teamed up with Saaphyri to plot against Angelique during the Power Outing betraying your alliance and doing the same thing 20 Pack ended up doing to you?

Me and Saaphyri were in an alliance since Day 1. Since before the show. It’s not like we were teaming up against Angelique, we were teaming up against the other person in the box. We teamed up against the whole house before we teamed up against Angelique. I love Angelique, but the fact is that I would have rather her gone than me or Saaphyri. I defended 20 Pack so many times. I had his back when the team voted against him. He’s a fake-ass fucking homosexual."

Mindy's Interview

"Is it going to be hard to see Bret again at the reunion?

Hard, but I’m excited. I know I should be like, “You didn’t pick me! You don’t like me!” but no. Not me. You spend all that time developing feelings for someone and just because you’re no longer filming it, that goes away? If you felt it and it really was coming from the right place, it doesn’t go away. I still think about Bret. I have a very romantic idea about him. I miss him. I feel like he was one of those guys I could be pals with and have a crazy fire with. I felt physically, there was some major chemistry. When it was over, I realized I was never going to kiss him again. I was never going to see him. There was no more laughing about dumb stuff. It was just over. There was a ring and I was ready. Hook, line, sinker, I was there. You love someone enough that you could actually see yourself married to them? And then it goes away like that? Next! No, that’s not me.

So you love him?

I am...still...yeah. I did fall in love with him. I did. I know people are going to think that’s completely insane coming from a reality show, but I really did. Everybody who knows me knows that the only reason I did and said the stuff I did was because I love him.

Any regrets about falling out with Taya?

No. I was honest about my questions with her. I was just trying to level with her: “Here’s what others are seeing. I want you to understand.” I thought that because we were friends, maybe she’d under stand it coming from me. But she was not open to it, not willing to accept imperfections. “I don’t have insecurities.” Everyone has insecurities. That’s just unrealistic unless you’re a robot. How can you be in a committed, loving relationship and not admit your faults? It’s part of what makes a relationship great."

POST SHOW INTERVIEWS: Chardonnay [For the Love of Ray J]

& Jaime [Rock of Love Bus]

As of today, Vh1's latest cast-offs from For the Love of Ray J and Rock of Love Bus are Chardonnay and Jaime. Chardonnay was eliminated for having a ''homie'' connection with Ray J, while the new-girl Jaime got axed for also not having a close-enough relationship with Bret. Chardonnay talks about how she is not a stripper, and her love for alcohol below while Jaime discusses that she is not a groupie. Both girls give nice, classy interviews you should really check out! Check out excerpts from their interviews below!

Chardonnay's Interview

"You weren’t drunk on the first episode?

I was tipsy! A lady never gets drunk, she gets tipsy.

It’s a little surprising to hear you refer to yourself as a lady, just because you were so salacious.

I’m very much a lady. Some things have to be done, and there’s editing involved, too. They’ll show you what they want you to see. The things I did like the splits and the scene in the bar, that was me having fun. That’s how I have fun and that’s how I would entertain my man. It just so happened that I was trying to get a man on national television. We had conversations. We did other stuff. It wasn’t just, “Oh when I see him, I’m gonna go into a split.” It wasn’t like that.

You were accused of being a stripper. Are you?

No, I am not. That came up on the first episode, and I was like, OK. I didn’t need to explain myself to them. I was not about to prove to them that I’m this or not that. That was none of their business. People can say what they want, but anybody can do a split. A regular person can do a split. If you stretch long enough, you can do a split. Cheerleaders can do a split. It’s not like I’m doing a double cartwheel round-off back handspring, you know?"

Jaime's Interview

"Were you legitimately into Bret?

I hate to admit it now, but at the time, yeah, I was. Come on, we were on a bus. He was the only guy we saw for, like, a month. But he’s a great guy. And, of course, in that situation, you get a little competitive.

Did you not want to settle down because you were on reality TV?

A little. Look, I do not think that Bret Michaels is going to marry anyone from that show. If he marries Mindy or Taya, I will personally throw the bridal shower. I think we could have had a really good time if he picked me. I think we would have dated for a while. I do agree with him that it wouldn’t have worked out.

Did you dislike Taya as much as your other competitors seem to?

I like Taya. I don’t think she had a lot of girl friends. She’s used to hanging around men. She was just...different. I mean, we were all a little different, but she was really different."
