I Want to Work For Diddy: Susie and Mike Win!

As the episode previews suggested, Poprah was eliminated from the show! I actually thought she might win, but maybe that saying about karma is true. The same attitude that irked her teammates, rubbed Diddy the wrong way, and he sent her packing. Funny.

Any chick that brings a jack-in-the-box to an executive meeting is not ready to work for Diddy. I think everyone realized Stephanie wasn't going to become Diddy's assistant. She was too laid back, and the fact that she tried to latch on to Boris a few weeks ago, was a red flag indeed.

The real competition was between Susie and Mike. So, Diddy's first choice was Susie. He said she was a combo of executive class and hustle. Diddy could see Mike's potential, but said he needed a bit more polishing.

In the end, Diddy chose both candidates. I wasn't a huge fan of either, but together they might get the job done.

I Want to Work for Diddy: Poprah Fired?!

Did Poprah get herself eliminated!? That was by far the most entertaining hour of Diddy I've seen since Fred and Ness went at it back in the 1st season of "MTB!"

So, the final four are tasked with organizing a party for a new Bad Boy artist. They're a mess. They're obviously nervous, anxious and I had butterflies in my stomach just watching them. Poprah and Mike had a small advantage over the other two just because Diddy remembered their names. That wasn't much to go on.

Anyway, Poprah's one task was to finalize the guest list for the event. Oh, and she also had to walk Diddy's dog. LOL. The others went running with him, so Poprah got off a little easy there. Anyway, hours later when Diddy requests the final list ... again, Poprah still doesn't have it, and instead of answering his yes-or-no question, she gets a bit of an attitude -- despite her calling him "sir," and he lets her know, "You're not ready to work for Diddy."

Of course, that's when the episode ends. Good ol' cliffhangers ... gotta love 'em. LOL.

So, do you think Poprah's really gone for good? It seems hard to believe. Honestly, she seems like the most qualified of the group. That's not saying too much for Mike, Susan and "What's your name?"

I Want to Work For Diddy: Double Whammy!

Both Boris and Kendra are eliminated tonight. Mike should have gone, too. I think he's a handsome guy, but for unnecessarily stabbing Kendra in the back, he needs to go home next! What a jerk!

Boris also went home, and I'm sure he was crushed. He expressed his love for Stephanie. She didn't smack him across the face like she normally would because she needs someone in the house to have her back. More than likely, Steph and Mike will pair up now, even though Steph swears she doesn't trust the guy.

Poprah did big things with the challenge. She made up a street game and nearly doubled Diddy's money. She had to split it, but I agree with her that she really shouldn't have had to. She made it happen, and although she still irks me, I do think she's the best candidate for now.

What will Diddy think? What did you think? Was Stephanie tramping it up by snuggling up to Boris to save her behind? They have a word for that. Don't they?

I Want to Work for Diddy: Party Pooper

Red, a party promoter, was eliminated after throwing a whack party. That makes perfect sense to me. He forgot to pick up the DJ. He couldn't come up with a theme, and where were the bartenders and waitresses?

I'm sure Poprah feels vindicated. She joined the Boris/Michael/Kendra team, and they won. Plus, the three seemed to have little problems with Poprah's personality. So, was she really the apple spoiling the bunch earlier in the season, or were her teammates really just hatin' on her?

Either way, I have the feeling the teams will be eliminated soon, and everybody will be looking out for self. I hate to admit it, but out of the remaining players, Poprah might really be the best choice. I'm hoping Mike can step it up, though, and take it all.

What do you think? Should Red have been sent home? Was Poprah toning it down for her new team, or has she just been misunderstood? Who's the best candidate? How do you mess up lemonade and vodka?

I Want to Work for Diddy: Laverne's Loss

Once again Poprah takes somebody out. Her team continues to put her up for elimination, but it always backfires. I can't blame her teammates for repeatedly nominating her for elimination. I agree with Laverne, who was eliminated for not selling one bottle of Diddy's perfume. Most of the team's dysfunction is a direct result of Poprah's overbearing personality.

Sadly, the judges know it's a personality that Diddy could respect on some level. What he won't respect are whiners, and that's what her opponents appear to be when they try to argue against Poprah.

However, next week it looks like everyone confronts Poprah about her attitude. I'm looking forward to it. It's too bad Laverne had to be eliminated BEFORE Poprah changes her ways, assuming that's what happens. Laverne was definitely the most entertaining of the bunch. Other than Boris, whose moniker conjures images of a buffoon, I can't remember anyone else's name.

What do you think? Should Laverne have gone home? Would she have made a good assistant to Diddy? Will Poprah calm herself if the others gang up on her next week?

I Want to Work for Diddy: Who Ordered Cupcakes?

No one was eliminated tonight, and that's good for Kendra, but not-so-much for Boris. The two were up for elimination after not tending to Diddy's baby mama, Kim Porter, well enough. Boris was ready to defend himself and impress the judges, but in the process, he threw just about everybody else on his team under the bus.

He betrayed the confidence of one of his team members. He accused another of thinking with the wrong body part, and he told the judges that Kendra wanted to have sexual relations with Diddy. She was so shocked that she could hardly respond at all. However, Boris' attacks proved unnecessary, and instead of impressing the judges, he just turned his team against him. What is that they say about watching who you step on while you're climbin' the ladder to the top?

Did you watch? Do you think Boris went too far, or does the outcome justify the means? How will Laverne do on her new team with Poprah? Will Poprah ever learn to let others take the lead? Who ordered cupcakes?

I Want to Work for Diddy: Good-Bye to Brianna

This episode was offensive to the transgendered and overweight, but Laverne and Boris, members of the Uptown team, won the challenge, so they probably don't care.

It was Brianna who ended up going home. It was her lack of leadership that brought about her elimination. She was the producer for a viral video her team created, but she didn't lead and admittedly, she didn't know what she was doing. So, she was kicked off the show.

However, I think Red should have gone home. I cannot stand his voice, and the way he stumbles over his words would probably irk Diddy as much as it does me. Diddy doesn't seem like the type to have lots of patience. Anyway, the teams meet Diddy next week, and the Downtowners get to steal someone from the Uptown team. Drama! LOL.

Who should have gone home? Was Mike offensive to Laverne? Is Boris really an idiot? Who will Diddy chew out first?

I Want to Work for Diddy: Au Revoir, Deon

It was "The Apprentice" with a touch of "The Amazing Race." Two people from each team were sent to Paris to find models that Diddy wanted to use for an eye wear ad. Boris was the obvious slacker. All he did was flirt, but in the end Deon was sent home because he couldn't admit that he was wrong. The judges obviously didn't like the ad the losing team put together, but Deon refused to acknowledge his errors in judgment. Nobody likes that.

Also, Deon just seemed like a punk. He let his teammates walk all over him. They dissed every idea that came out of his mouth, and he just shrugged his shoulders. Something tells me Diddy's assistant will need to be a bit more outspoken. Deon did try to speak up for himself at the elimination, but all he did was dig a deeper hole for himself by admitting that he had advertising experience ... with billboards! So, he didn't know when to speak up, or when to shut up. So Au Revoir.

I think Boris and Deon should have both been eliminated. They were both useless. What do you think? Was a double-elimination necessary? Should Deon have been sent home, or should Boris have gone home to save future models from his lame flirting?

I Want to Work for Diddy: Jesus, Martin, Poprah

Rob is eliminated, and we saw that coming a mile away. He spent four years in the Army but is awful at ground navigation, which was a huge part of last night's challenge. His team was lost in the woods for hours, and when they finally reached one of the points on their path to the finish line, they were detoured when Rob incorrectly answered the multiple choice question. It would have been a miracle for him not to be eliminated.

Of course, it didn't help him that Poprah was the person he went head-to-head with in the elimination. That put him at a grave disadvantage, since she's on the same level as Jesus and Martin Luther King, Jr.

LMAO.

I know. It's ridiculous, but she did actually compare herself to Jesus and MLK. What's the similarity? All three are "great leaders" in her mind. Also, she felt her team had betrayed her. I disagree. To betray someone there needs to be some loyalty established in the first place. Poprah knows her teammates can't stand her. She shouldn't have been surprised they nominated her for elimination. I'm sure it's not the last time.

Did you watch? What do you think? Should Poprah have been eliminated? What was wrong with Rob? Should he have kept his military background a secret and let someone else take the lead? Will the Uptown Team continue their losing streak?

I Want to Work for Diddy

I guess Sean Combs has given up on trying to make a decent band. I don't blame him. I won't go into how the season with Ness, Chopper, Dylan and the crew was the best "Making the Band" ever. Diddy has moved on to bigger and better things, and so will I.

So, in the season premiere of VH1's "I Wanna Work for Diddy" we meet the candidates who want to become Diddy's new assistant. Why they'd want to do that to themselves, I don't know. Diddy is obviously a diva. He's extra, and I don't think there's enough money in the world to deal with that. Just thinking about it makes me wanna take a nap.

Anyway, some girl who complained about pounding the pavement in heels was sent home. The judges decided to keep a woman named Poprah on the show; although, all her teammates wanted her gone, and rightfully so. She was bossy, loud, aggressive, unfair and arrogant. So, she may fit in well with Mr. Combs.

Did you watch the show? Did you agree with the judge's decision to keep Poprah?
