Those Flavor of Love ladies could be a rough bunch, but they're about to clean up their acts. VH1's new spin-off, Flavor of Love Girls: Charm School starring Mo'Nique, is set to premiere April 15 at 10:00 PM. The Celebreality series finds the boisterous comedienne-actress dispensing rules of etiquette to the finger-waving, weave-swinging, expletive-spewing, booty-shaking, attitude-flaunting princesses from Flav-ville. Here's the deal:

Mo'Nique lets the girls know that their Flavor of Love stardom has also turned them into walking punchlines. "America wasn't laughing with you," she tells them, "they were laughing at you." Under Mo's tutelage, the ladies will be trained in proper etiquette and have their social skills challenged to test their self-confidence, composure and grace. The one left standing will receive a $50,000 prize.

The Charm School contestants, as pictured above are: (Top row, L-R) Like Dat (Flavor of Love 2), Rain (Flavor of Love 1), Buckeey (FoL 2), Saaphyri (FoL 2), Goldie (FoL 1), Buckwild (FoL 2), Hottie (FoL 1); (Bottom row, L-R) Toastee (FoL 2), Bootz (FoL 2), Krazy (FoL 2), Smiley (FoL 1), Serious (FoL 1) and Pumkin (FoL 1).

If the photo is any indication, this show will be amazing. It's like The Facts of Life on Alize!

After the jump are two exclusive VSPOT video previews of the show:


Every week leading up to the premiere of Charm School, VSPOT will post at least one new segment following the girls at home, in their natural habitats. In the first two below, catch up with Flavor of Love 2's Krazy (best known for her beautiful music), Buckeey (best known for her hotness), Saaphyri (best known for her lip chap) and Buckwild (best known for her accent).

I think they picked the right girls to bring in the drama. Love that Rain and Saffyri are there. Though they didnt last long, both of them were crazy and will cause alot of conflict. The only one Im not excited to see is Toastee bc she was boring. Her claim to fame was that she got outed for doing porn. Other than that, she barely hit anyone's radar. Id have traded her for Red Oyster

so who's watching? I saw some of it up on Vspot and will have to catch the rest tomorrow morning. So far looks good. I hate the "good" vibe that this has. Who cares about rehabiltation. I want some drama! This show reminds me so much of that show Starting Over with women that live in a house and try to better their lives. It has that kind of vibe with a ghetto twist of course...lol

Im calling it right now and Goldie will win this. She is the ONLY normal and sane one of the bunch. Seriously girl has no drama and I love her. I think she was brought on bc she was popular and one of the more memorable girls bc she was just so genuine and hilarious. Her commentary is the best. Its not even fair to have her on the show up against those skanks

I actually dont mind the other girls but I cant stand that Krazy is there bc I hate her ass. I really hope she is eliminated early on bc she is one person that irritated the hell out of me. She better not try and sing.

    • Thanks. I'm glad we have some fan memories of these years as this is such a typically snide take on the genre. It's also poorly written and reminds me a great deal of the tedious "snark" recaps that became popular in the '90s. The end in particular. The 1979/80 stuff I have seen is much more polished than a number of soaps at the time. It was very easy to watch and not too bogged down in past story.  Margo is played by Ann Williams, who was on what seemed like every soap. I think she said Margo was her favorite role.  These episodes aren't consecutive, but if you ever have time, they are worth a watch. They are bits and pieces from January and April of 1979 - April in and out of prison, her past calling to her via her psychic powers (and the suicide of Miles' wife Denise, who had murder framing in mind). April 1979 has the end of Winter Austen (such a fantastic soap name).  I don't want to drop a ton of links but you can find playlists on Youtube.
    • And the rating 'wars' continue...hehe.
    • Well, it was fun while it lasted for Rebecca Herbst. Le sigh.    
    • I am wholeheartedly enjoying this show. I just haven't been able to post as much as I used to. But yes, this episode needs to be submitted for the EMMYs and there needs to be wins. I better NOT see Y&R, DAYS, or B&B winning in categories over BTG. I feel like the only show that is giving BTG an ounce of competition this season is GH. 
    • I never thought the day would come, but too much MM for me. 
    • I think it may be that the character was brought in for a specific purpose and then became popular with viewers, and the show didn't know how to respond.  The choice to pivot away from Simon/India may show that you are right and they didn't care for her...although pairing them up may be another sign they didn't care for her. I don't connect well with this period but it does make me happy seeing some of these characters before the great purge and some of the surprises - I'd forgotten the wonderful Maureen O'Sullivan popped up to be bumped off. So typical of soaps by this point, but it doesn't grate as much as later on when Y&R would bring on any random cast member from Small Wonder. I'm also amazed at this time at just how much money the show must have had. The costumes for the Founder's celebration in summer 1984, or whatever it was, looked gorgeous.
    • Which officially started to feel that way today with them hearing each other out as they confronted each other at the same time.    Same. He was even catching himself when he was about to go overboard or do those tics that people don't seem to like. He failed a bit at the end, but he carried. It makes me think about a month back when it was discussed that the actor was better in other things he's been in. And I questioned then if that meant that he was playing Martin more intentionally. I questioned that briefly again today because he was giving. 
    • I really like the actress who plays Margo. Don't know  her name. I'm so hesitant to google anyone because I don't want to know the length they were on the show. I've watched two episodes and I have to say that the show does not feel as dated as other shows. I tried to watch Ryan's Hope a few weeks back and some of the acting was a bit rough. EON is a lot more natural which amuses me considering it's a mystery/thriller show.
