Be the Houseguest Roleplay Thread - Week 19
Looks like plans for the talent show are well underway. But for the love of all that is holy, PLEASE don't put Christie in charge again!
This oughta be good. I hope it's enough to get the show renewed for the fall...

I nominate Richard Simmons as co-producer/director.He's the only one who can pull it all together.
Sparkle! Verve!

Posted by kircon on 06-15-06 at 04:54 AM
Dr Stan, why would you nominate that Richie guy? I'm the one with sparkle. *blows smoke rings* I have verve & elan. That other guy has too many other jobs going on. I would devote my entire attention *cough* *cough* this job.
"RE: Be the Houseguest Roleplay Thread - Week 18"

:hangs up phone:Maureen! Maureen! The producers are delighted.
How could we have forgotten you? With a sparkly sequined tank top, stripey shorts and a big wig you look exactly like Richard!
The usual fee: a case of Marlboro's and a new U-Haul wardrobe box?

"Hey Dr Stan!"
Posted by kircon on 06-16-06 at 04:35 AM
I will not be wearing that Richie's clothes.....*lights a cig* *inhales* *blows smoke at Dr Stan* And by the way, my fee has raised. A case of Marlboro's each day, and for my lodging, that big bathroom looks mighty good. *cough* *inhale* *holds breath and stares at Dr Stan*
Deal or No Deal?

And we made some HUGE cash! I bet we get even more for the talent show. And I did it all by my grown a$$ self!""I am lovin' Mama I's special song...not sure how Rhonda feels about it though. Maybe we could get her to drink some of Christie's Special Happy Punch. She gets a lot nicer and easier to work with after that. And I better return Richard's phone calls and see how Dr. Stan's performance is shapin' up. I sure hope the rest of the girls are practicin' their acts."

LAST EDITED ON 06-13-06 AT 05:16 PM (EST)For the love of Christmas, girl, don't be botherin' me about no budget right now...errrrp...I don't feel so good. I didn't know that cupcake TJ gave me was plastic...I ate that danged thing! Didn't taste half bad...
Uhhhhhh, you know, don't get me wrong, not as good as the cupcakes I eat from Sprinkles, French's Bakery, the Frosted Cupcakery, Olde Dessert Shoppe, the Buttercup Bake Shop, Cupcake Royale (LOVE their slogan: Legalize Frostitution!), Kara's Cupcakes, The Magnolia Bakery, The Pink Cupcake Bakery, Cake Fetish, Sugarland Bakery, The Cake Factory, Bon-Bon Bakery, Cupcakes and Co, The Cupcake Connection, Babycakes, The Cupcake Cafe, Bakes N' Cakes, Sweethearts, Bluebird Bakery, Batterworks, Citizen Cake, The Creative Cakery, Sugarbaby's, Kelly's Kupcakes, Fluffy's, Cake It On!, Buttercream's Bakery, or Sugar Plum Fairy's, but still, not half bad. EEERRRP!!

Jill,Did you hear me when I said that the chocolate cupcake was FAKE?? I said it to you and explained that you could only talk to it and look at it but NOT eat it! Sigh... How many times do I have to say something for people to hear me??

Like I said...the ONLY normal one in the SO house!

Hey Jill, Don't listen to that normal blond, just remember that a balanced diet is cupcakes in both hands.

MEMO To: Rhonda
From: Iyanla
Re.: Our Duet
I liked your idea, Rhonda -- I liked it so much that I took it over and changed it all! But I made it so much better!
I had my assistant dig up the lyrics to "Sisters". I'm guessin' that this was the number you had in mind. I've made this sooooooooo easy for ya, sweetie. I just updated the lyrics and made them SO centered. You'll see the original, and underneath it, you'll see my new and improved Iyanlalyrics, verse by verse. I have to say, I'm just not feelin' the rhythm of this thing - the tempo is just a little too spastic. That probably won't matter to you since you may not have any sense of musicality or rhythm.
Let me know if you can learn the new version in time for the show -- if you can't, I'll do a solo. I really don't want you to mess this up for me.
Original:
{Both:} Sisters, sisters,
There were never such devoted sisters.
Never had to have a chaperone, no sir.
{Sister #1} I'm here to keep my eye on her.
New & Improved Iyanlaversion:
{Both} Sistahs, sistahs,
Iyanla is the most important sistah.
Never bought that Fearless Living crap, no sir.
{Iyanla:} I'm here to keep my eye on her.
Original:
{Both:} Caring, sharing,
every little thing that we are wearing.
When a certain gentleman arrived from Rome,
{Sister #2:} she wore the dress and I stayed home.
New & Improved Iyanlaversion:
{Both:}Glaring, staring,
hate her guts, but don't we act so caring?
Rhonda took that Emmy trophy as her own,
{Iyanla} she wore the dress and I stayed home.
Original:
{Both:} All kinds of weather, we stick together,
the same in the rain or sun.
Two different faces, but in tight places
we think and we act as one. Uh-huh!
New & Improved Iyanlaversion:
{Both:} All kinds of weather, we stick together,
notice that we didn't run,
with those tired faces, in 5K races,
we don't even know who won. Ha-Ha!
Original:
Those who've seen us
know that not a thing can come between us.
Many men have tried to split us up, but no one can.
Lord help the mister who comes between me and my sister,
and Lord help the sister that comes between me and my man.
New & Improved Iyanlaversion:
Those who've seen us
know that lots of stuff has come between us.
Lots of people tried to save our show, but no one can.
Lord help the mistah who comes between me and my sistah,
unless that sly sistah, has paired up with dear Dr. Stan!
Phone Message left for Richard Simmons:
{beeeeep} Yes Dicky, this is Iyanla! Listen, I think I might know where your hot-pants and T-tops have gone. Go to eBay, and search "dog clothing". One of our former guests has gone into canine fashion design. I think she needed some new fabric, and she doesn't like to buy things in the conventional way - I mean she doesn't like the complications of paying for her purchases. Get my meaning? You may want to e-mail her quickly, before she cuts up your ensembles and decorates them with "ombres" of blue rhinestones.
Um....are you up for a game of Twistah???
Phone Message left for Jill:
{Ring, ring, ring} "I'm sorry, the number you are trying to reach has been disconnected or is temporarily out of service. Please check the number and dial again, or dial your operator for further assistance."
{Iyanla mumbling to self} Damn, Jill! Pay your phone bill! How am I gonna let you know that Bunim/Murray is not paying for the "talent's" 10,000 mile oil change on your scooter!!!
"Costumes"
Posted by alaholly on 06-14-06 at 00:32 AM
"Listen up Jill, Jodi, Christie, and Richard. I think we may have enough of this Big Bolt Spandex to cover your giant butts make your costumes. If we stretch it reeeeaaal tight we can get those costumes extra snug and prevent the chairs in the front row from shakin' during your openin' numba. Mr. Jon said we need to prevent further injuries from the floor shakin' durin' dance numbers. Okay girls?""Also I need somebody to pass out earplugs right before Cassie's openin' song. How about Niambi? She's fast. We gotta really hustle 'cuz the insurance company won't pay for any more accidents resultin' from stampedes toward the exits. The guy from the Poetry Slam is still recovering. He was run over by everyone escapin' exitin' aftah the show."
<Antonia is momentarily distracted by the sight of Dr. Stan outside practicing his solo street dance down by the pool. He is working up a sweat and is wearing one of Richard's sequined tank tops>
"No Lisa. Rhonda said you can't wear a bikini...she may be wearin' one with her tiara. And anybody know what Mama I is wearin'? We got a little Spandex left ovah. Anybody else got their costume ready???"

That's A LOT of spandex...
"RE: Costumes"
Posted by Anne18 on 06-14-06 at 01:22 AM
Yes! Antonia, over here! Hi! (Cassie stands up.) TJ and I went shopping for costumes yesterday - the chocolate fudge ice cream sundae was great by the way - and we bought our costume for our duet. I can't tell you what they are but it's not spandex or glitter. No way!

Hellloooo LARD BUTT Iyanla!! Don't have time for you ever for a game of Twister. I'm too busy looking for my work out gear. BTW, thanks for the info about them disappearing. I'm still trying to figure out who you might be talking about.
Antonia, you are a little b!tchy headstrong, aren't you? I don't want to step on any toes (except maybe my darling Dr. Stanley's), so I am not going to try to "run" the show. I will, however, be the star of the show. You wait and see.
"Oh, Richie...."
Posted by catmama on 06-14-06 at 11:36 PM
LAST EDITED ON 06-15-06 AT 00:00 AM (EST)If you think by now everyone would've stopped stashing their this-n-thats in me, well, you thunk and fell in it. If you want to know where 90% of your outfits are, Richard, look no further than the back of the linen closet. That's right. Much like Kim and Allison, Christie and Christina, your little grown-a$$ Antonia has been squirelling away "souvenirs" behind the towels. Don't worry; not all of them have been made into sequined dog outfits. Your red.white and blue "Shake it like Uncle Sam!" set? Behind the washrags. And the flaming hot pink number? In between Jodi and Niambi's fuzzy robes. So, when all is lost (or seems to be), check out Mr. Bathroom! Only if e-bay turns up nothin'.

And Antonia, you might want to get these pillows and blankets out of Mr. Tub, either before he develops a leak, or Dr. Stan sees them, and decides to do a special "Dance of the 7 Blankies," wink wink.

Ah, Antonia, dear, since Iyanla must be off to her "Notions and Potions" conference, I will try to be of good use to you.Here, dear, hold up this mirror and repeat after me: I am beautiful. I am loved. I love me. I love Rhonda. Rhonda is the ultimate standard of whom I should aspire to be. I am not as beautiful as Rhonda. I am enough.
It is time for you to step out of your comfort zone. To reinforce the fact that you can do ANYTHING, please put on the tutu you had made for Maureen. Go to Pink's hot dog stand and pirouette on the table, shouting out, "I am the star in the ballet of LIFE!!!!"
I'm so glad I could help. These things will improve your self-confidence immensely.
Oh, and when you make flyers for the talent show, please remember two things: My picture with the Emmy goes on the front, and you need to include the PRICE.
Be fearless, but be fearful of ME.

What a looker, that one.But Vanty, you really need to make up your mind. First you tell me I should be out hustling to make us some money for our nest egg, so you hook me up with XXXtina. And now you have the gall to get "grumpy" because I'm not around?! Sheesh!
I'll have you know, I have just mastered the pole dance. And after that, I'll be graduating to the Sit on the Floor and Undulate with Christie, to Be in Touch with Your Sensual Self shtick.

Umm, Iyanla, most of the song is great...I just have an issue with the first verse: New & Improved Iyanlaversion:
{Both} Sistahs, sistahs,
Iyanla is the most important sistah.
Never bought that Fearless Living crap, no sir.
{Iyanla:} I'm here to keep my eye on her.
Newer and better Rhondaversion
Sisters, sisters,
Rhonda is the most beautiful sister.
Cast my spells with beauty, not with wands, no sir.
(Rhonda): I'm here to keep my eye on her.
So, how do we resolve this situation? Do we let the Great BM decide? Or do we do both verses?
Be fearless, but be fearful of ME.

Rhonda wants to know what? And did she ask that like she thought I really might care?
Yeeaaahhh, tell them that if they can't resolve it themselves they will have to go to Kim's Anger Room until they work it out.

You know, Rhonda, I only said that for Megan's benefit. It's you

Rhonda, my love, my darlin', oh Rhonda....I think you need to reign in your assistant. She's taken a few liberties with what you dictated to her. Like, I know that you didn't call your version the "newer and better Rhondaversion", and still that's what your memo calls that verse you submitted. So, somebody got a little uppity, right? Now truly, baby, doesn't the term "Iyanlalyric" sound so much more......um, how do I say this?......better?As for the rest of it...I don't need to run the world ya know, not that I couldn't. I'm a reasonable soul -- within reason, ahahahahah! So, we'll negotiate. You can keep SOME of that, with a few minor alterations. How's this?
Iyanla's "don't even think of changing this line or I'll break your fingers", betterer than the newer and better Rhondaversion of Iyanlalyrics:
Sistahs, Sistahs,
Rhonda's a 45 year-old sistah.
Casts her spells with botox, not with youth, no sir.
(Rhonda)I'm here to keep my eye on her.
So, I'm open to suggestions. Whaddya think?

LAST EDITED ON 06-17-06 AT 08:27 PM (EST)Iyanla, Iyanla, poor, misguided, not self-loving Iyanla. Who are you, dear, to talk about YOUTH? I think 45 years passed by you quite a while ago. And what is this Botox you speak of? I have no idea what that even is. I naturally look this young and lithe. I naturally have this alert, plastic sneer beautiful, healthy look on my face.
How about this...I do want to sing with you, dear, as it will make us both look loving, caring, and radiant on camera and show our false comraderie.
The newest and bestest Rhondaversion of Iyanlalyrics because my hands are insured by Lloyd's of London because Dr. Stan got a package deal
Sisters, sisters,
I love myself more than my sister,
Love the camera more than a man, yes sir,

Will this work for a compromise?

Should have quit while you were ahead, Britton.Oh sistah, isn't it true! The devil truly is in the details. We're getting all kinds of stuck on this little verse. And now you've gone and riled up the devil in me! Well, this may settle things and chase the devil away!

There's no doubt that I'm the coach the fans prefer,

Sisters, Sisters,

Damn it! I thought we had enough Snow-balls and Reddy whip! I guess my "sister" Jill got to them (and before even I could!). So, now am I not only costume-less, I'm pretty hungry, too. ::Overhears Niambi and TJ talking about the Bead store:: Mind if I tag along? We need a few things from the Hostess store- Twinkies, Ding Dongs, cupcakes, HoHo's, muffins, and Snowballs you know, just some healthy snacks. And, I need some wheat bread- I am on a diet, after all! Whaddya say, ladies? :tries to bear hug TJ and Niambi:: Did I just hear a snap? Sounded like... twigs breaking. Anyway...I'm ready when you guys are! 
I wonder if Andy would help me w/ my Reddy-Ball costume, as I'm calling it. Or maybe Snow-Whip? Cream-balls? Ah, we'll figure it out! Andeee!

Jodi, I am so sorry, honey, but they just don't make size 42DDD Snow-balls. And there's not enough RediWhip in the whole world to cover that midriff of yours. I would suggest you wear, instead, a simple basic black shift, on which we'll all paint a picture of our favorite snacks, using the Day-Glo markers of our choice! And you know what? We can expand this project, ladies! Remember the guy who sold advertising on his forehead? Well, we can sell advertising on Jodi's Black Dress! We can charge $20 a column inch, and even more for the fattest premium spots. And if I do say so myself, we could make a bundle on your butt, alone!
So Jodi, please meet me over at Chéz Omar's on Rodeo Drive, and you can try on some of the tents stunning dresses I've selected for you. Ta for now, honey!

Jon, I just got a phone call from Aaron Spelling.First the good news: Yes! The Love Boat set is available for our talent show, with many has-been actors eager to make their services available to us.
Now, the bad news: The talent show must be completed by next Friday because Aaron needs Rhonda for a special 4th of July edition of The Swan: Boo-boos and Bloopers.

Dear Dr. Stan my most favorite Starting Over Shrink,
I heard you mentioning that fantastic and inspiring TV show "The Swan." I was wondering if you know the answer to my question:
Was Christie a former contestant?Thank you Dr. Stan. I'm your biggest fan (except for Richard). Thanks for the nice note.

I was thinking it might be a good idea to have the talent show in front of that little hot dog stand where Doormat Lisa had her little poetry show.

Rhonda, would you consider wearing that little red tutu number for the talent show?
