Who could forget Season 2 of Flavor of Love? I mean with Tiffany "New York" Pollard resurfacing, the high drama, tears and a contestant losing her bowels during elimination, it was one talked about season!
At least three of the 21 contestants VH1 introduced to the world, London "Deelishis" Charles, Larissa “Bootz” Aurora, and Shay “Buckeey” Johnson have parlayed their 15-minutes of fame into lengthy careers.
In the four years following the show, these three former Flavorettes have graced magazine covers, appeared in a spin-off reality show, and used their reality TV fame to jump start singing and acting careers.
Season two winner, London Charles (nee Chandra Davis) "Deelishis," is a Detroit native with a body that many men say "just won't quit." Since winning Flav's heart momentarily, Charles has given birth to a beautiful baby girl with her new husband, introduced a line of fabulous jeans and dropped a video to name a few things.
In an exclusive interview with XXL.com, Charles speaks of her failed relationship with Flavor Flav and his lack of honesty during and after the show. She also said VH1 has approached her and her husband about doing a new reality show focusing on her life and career post Flavor of Love2.
Larissa “Bootz” Aurora, XXL's Eye Candy of November 2007 has been busy herself since she was eliminated from Flavor of Love 2 because she told Flav she planned to wait until she got married before she had sex again. Aurora was featured in rapper Fabolous' "Baby Don't Go" video, she jumped the broom and gave birth to two beautiful children.
During her interview with XXL.com, Aurora mentioned her new YouTube channel: YouTube.com/ForeverLarissaAurora and the first video which features her addressing questions from her fans.
When asked about Flava Flav, Aurora said she heard from him via MySpace while she was pregnant with her daughter, but other than that, her interaction with the former Public Enemy performer and father of seven, is non-existent and that seems to be fine with "Bootz," who says she married her childhood sweetheart.
