"Is Christina working for Karrine?"

Posted by Labyrinth on 11-04-05 at 08:38 AM
A spoiler has been thrown out there that now that the SO house is over for season three that Christina has moved on and become a writing assistant for Karrine Steffan.

I was wondering if anyone could verify that rumor here? I know Karrine has a website but I haven't gone through it because I really don't visit porn sites (soft or hard).

Thanks if anyone knows an answer.

There is a person named PBBmom that claims to be Christina's Ex-husbands NEW wife. And Yes. She said that Christina is working in LA for Karrine. She has Jackson with her also.

Boy thats great sounds like another so success story to me, So I guess Chritstain is up to the same old life style we can thank IV for this she introduced Christina to her.

PBBMom says this. I want outside confirmation

Anyone could come on the board and claim this information. I am wondering if there is any PROOF of this like having Christina's name on Karrine's website, or in press releases or as a writing assistant credit on something that Karrine is doing.

The SO season 3 is over (we are just now seeing the eps) so there should be evidence out there if this is indeed true.

christina away.

Season 3 IS NOT over! It just began!! We have another 5-6 months left of season three (they are typically only 2-3 months ahead of what we see on TV) so they will shoot all the way through next March and we'll see the eps until May...

Yeah....Karrine is probably the madam, and Christina is probably one of the girls in her stable. Honestly, Christina ...a writing assistant? Be serious.

It's been posted in another forum that Christina is working for Karrine as more of a nanny/errand girl job then a writer's assistant.

Just thought I'd update my own thread since no one has responded here in the spoilers section.

Well..what do you think a writer's assistant would do? I figured more of a personal assistant to a writer...which is what it sounds like she's doing...

do you think she'd allow someone without a high school education to write for her????


"RE: Is Christina working for Karrine?"
Posted by Labyrinth on 11-08-05 at 08:24 AM
Not sure where your going with your post (?)

I simply wanted confirmation as to if Christina was working for Karrine and if so, in what position. She was promised a "writer's assistant" position - to me that means typing (remember C bragged she does 90 wpm), editing and researching. C's education is irrevalent because it was Karrine who ALREADY promised C a job without any sort of evaulation of her skills.

If I was promised a writing position and then got to babysit my employer's 7 year old son I wouldn't call that a writer's position. Apparently my degree in journalism and years working at newspapers has made me totally unable to understand that writing means babysitting. Golly.


"RE: Is Christina working for Karrine?"
Posted by Mikala on 11-08-05 at 08:26 AM
I just took it to be personal assistant..which would include the following....

answering calls as needed
getting her lunch
watching her child as needed (not really a nanny though)
making sure her cell was charged
taking care of errands
doing a lot of things that K just doesnt have time for

"Oh golly Miss Molly"; so sad, so much hard work and education and you hadn't a clue that writing assistants are babysitters! Jesting, your email gave me a good laugh, thanks good buddy!

Not sure what you mean by :

Unless the show got canceled the show will continue to the end of May-2006.

They started taping in June which usually means, by the time we see the six original houseguests tv time, they are long gone from the house real time and there are completely different ladies in there now, real time.

Most porns sites make the person sign up for a year so Christine's pics could still be up there per contract til the year is up.

It's really quite hilarious how people think they know the truth when really they have no clue to what the truth is.

But STARTING OVER *IS NOT* over for Season Three! The seasons have lasted about 8-9 months each year. This season JUST STARTED. Over the past couple of years, they have only been 2-3 months ahead, so yes, while the current housemates we are seeing are probably long gone and graduated or kicked out, they are STILL shooting the show, until at least next Spring!!

I thought you all knew this!

Ok, I DID go to her site and I'm so confused now. I thought that this woman was supposed to be HELPING Christina to become an "honorable woman". This woman is half naked on her site with her boobs and butt hanging out everywhere. Where's the honor in that?

Donia,

I'm with you. After looking at that website, I have to ask,"what the hell are those lifecoaches thinking"? It's like sending Lisa to PeeWee Herman to learn how to act like a big person. Give me a break...

Did I not see an "album" of sexually enticing photos of the "reformed" stripper who "slept with many celebrities"? Why was Christina's photo, just as questionable, held up as proof of her dishonor while Karrine - her peer counselor - uses the same stuff as her calling card? Where is the attorney to help Karrine get this stuff OFF of the internet? What a joke.

"She walks into a room like it was Milan runway. Men get whiplash as they turn to look at her. She's used to it though..." Is that what a woman of honor hopes the magazine articles will say about her? Oh yeah...I forgot. It's all acceptable because Karrine, the gifted intellect and writer that she claims to be, is breaking into the entertainment industry.

Somebody, tell me how assisting in the writing of books like, "Confessions of a Video Vixen" is going to help Christina, a "lower class" ex-prostitute who claims to be suffering from flashbacks of "the life".

This may beat every Allison tale so far. I am dumbfounded - really.

Sounds like these life coaches didnt do their homework and look into this K chick alittle further. I would like to think they truly thought she was an EX and didnt know of her website. That is truly disgusting.

"RE: Is Christina working for Karrine?"
Posted by sowatcher333 on 11-29-05 at 08:02 PM
I really feel Iyanla/the show needs to justify why in the world they felt this sex-and-tell-for-money "mentor" was a good choice for Christina. I just cannot truly believe that they didn't investigate this woman's background, Web site, info on her.

I mean, to each his own. Karrine, of course, has the freedom to do as she pleases, and whatever ick factor may stick to her, that's her own making.

But for Iyanla and SO to make her a mentor to a recovering down-on-my-luck-can-only-work-the-sex trade/sex scammer who has a toddler at home is just disgusting. It seems to me the show needs to explain that somehow - their reasoning.


"RE: Is Christina working for Karrine?"
Posted by SeasonedRefinement on 12-01-05 at 02:19 AM
There has been a lot of talk about Iyanla not returning.

I am holding out hope that one day she will explain that she was contractually obligated to the producers to present a lot of crap as therapy, she found it to be a moral issue, and left.

I can hope, can't I?


Unconditional love heals - big time.


"RE: Is Christina working for Karrine?"

A moral person would leave, contract or no contract.


Nothing can justify the way she or Rhonda are this year....both are hitting rock bottom with their treatment of some of the housemates while others are treated like *queens*.

One can say it is all in the editing...but they can't edit in words (they can script them (Which I feel alot is scripted)in but not edit in).

Both Rhonda and IV see dollar signs.....by being on this show I am sure their self help books went up in sales.....(Not by me though-self help books all same the same-use your common sense).

But think that little tactic may change cause now there are far more viewers disgusted with the show than not this season.

We are seeing the real Rhonda nd IV-Both will do anything for the all mighy buck and self promotion.

I've heard the same thing about Iyanla wanting to leave, but she is filming a season right now, so maybe after that she will be leaving..

I heard - from a reliable source - that Christina worked for Karrine for a short period of time but that Karrine "didn't treat Jackson right" so she left.

Not sure if it true or not and I may be just passing on gossip but I did see earlier this week that she living with the camera man with her son in Calf. and has cut her hair short!


"RE: Is Christina working for Karrine?"

I live in the Valley, not far from the Starting Over house. I saw Christina with Karrine shopping at Target early in November. They had both of their kids with them. Christina's hair is cut in a short bob with lots of blonde streaks.

"RE: Is Christina working for Karrine?"
Posted by Labyrinth on 12-04-05 at 09:09 PM
The last personal email I got said (and I don't know how reliable this source is) that Christina didn't like the way Karrine treated Jackson so she left the job. She has asked step mom to come to California to take Jackson back to this dad until she can get on her feet.

What I find interesting is no one who has posted here, or emailed me privately, anything about Christina being pregnant and of course that is what she is saying on the current eps (which is about 45 days behind real time as they just did Sept. 11, and we are now Dec. 4).

So if Karrine and Christina are shopping together - and seen together - either she is working for Karrine while at the SO house (unlikely because Jackson is in CA) or Christina leaves the SO house in the next 30 days either by graduating or being booted off.

I was also emailed that the SO has filmed two endings - one where Christina graduates, one where she does not. It is undecided which ep they will use. This was emailed to me and I have doubts on it's truth --- but you never know.


"RE: Is Christina working for Karrine?"
Posted by JustBeingAuthentic on 12-05-05 at 10:45 PM
She definitely did not look pregnant when I saw her in November, and this would be about two months after the current episodes. Of course, even if she was pregnant when they taped that episode, I can't see her going through with it. Chalk it up to more drama.

The two seemed to be shopping as friends since they both had their kids with them and each had a cart. I've been a personal assistant and the whole point was for me to do my boss' shopping so she wouldn't have to.

i dont have an bad opinion of christina being in the porn buisness. men pay alot of money for it, and as a single mother, why not. she can make money in porn with out even having to have sex with men. i dont know if shes ever thought of it. but oh well. im just an open person, i wouldnt do it, i might get alot of crap from this place for thinking that way, but shes not a bad person for what she did. she made some wrong desisions, couldve done it differently. but she could be pregnant and not show til the baby turns at about 6-7 months pregnant. who knows what SO tells is the truth. theyre trying to get theyr ratings up!

The way Karrine has been getting bashed since her book came out I wouldn't want to work for her. Tyra Banks made a fool of her on her show, and HOT97 radio station did it for 45 minutes.
