This is the week we have all been waiting for. Hollywood week! I was really excited to see what Elen Degeneres had to bring to the show. She made some pretty funny comments to the contestants to keep the mood light although she probably made a few of them feel like crap with comments like “that was crazy in a bad way”. With Simon Leaving the show she’s going to have to be really mean to keep the ratings up. I don’t think thats possible though, Ellen is just too sweet.
I was extremely impressed with Andrew Garcia performing Paula Abdul’s straight up. His voice reminds me so much of Danny Goki’s. I also really liked the rocker girl Mary Powers and Michael Lynche (the guy who’s wife was in labor).
It was sad to see Vanessa Wolfe go. Even though she wasn’t very good I liked her personality and it is always nice to see the poor girl make it. Oh well. There were actually a lot of people I liked that didn’t make it but I guess not everyone can make it.

This week Adam ventured to Tucson Arizona to attempt the omg burger challenge, but first he tried the Sonora Dog at El Guero Canelo. It’s a hot dog wrapped in bacon then fried in butter and topped with pinto beans, onions, tomato, mustard, habinero sauce and mayonnaise. Even though it sounds very peculiar it looked so delicious all I could say was mmmm!
Next Adam went to Mi Nidito Restaurant to try the dish created for Bill Clinton. A chile relleno, a chicken enchilada, a tamale, a pinto bean tostada topped with cheese, and a shreded beef taco. The food is all authentic Mexican. The recipes came from the owners parents who were the original owners from Sonora Mexico. I’m really jealous of the people of Tuscon! The Mexican restaurant in my town is super delicious but they don’t deep fry their chile rellenos and they don’t put shredded beef in their tacos either.
The Challenge took place at Lindy’s Diner on 4th. They have the most creative burgers I’ve ever heard of, peanut butter and bacon burgers and Mac and Cheese burgers. Adam was there to take on the omg burger though. It was made out of 12 quarter lb. patties, six slices of cheddar cheese and six slices of swiss cheese topped off with onion, lettuce, tomato and homemade chipotle sauce. If Adam would have ate it in twenty min. it would have been on the house but nonetheless he did complete it and he got his photo on the wall of fame. I kind of figured Adam would complete the challenge it couldn’t have been much more than 4 lbs. of food and I’ve sen him eat as much as 7 lbs. of food.

On this weeks episode of “Sex Rehab” The ladies did an art therapy session. For the session they put their feeling onto a t-shirt. Kendra started out not wanting to do the t-shirt.
Meanwhile back at the Pasadena Recovery Center, Duncan felt isolated being the only gay man in treatment. The girls were taken from him and he can relate to the girls better. It was also hard for him to know the other guys have the workout trainer to look at. I personally think it is to Duncan’s advantage not to have triggers in the house.
Back to the session at Children of The Night Nicole showed her t-shirt first. It was called beautiful disaster. Amber made a shirt with a name tag that says hi, my name is date raper because she wished those guys would come with a name tag. Keri Ann did one called beautifully abused and she poured out every trama that ever happened to her. It really made everyone understand Keri Ann better. Even Kendra decided to quit judging Keri Ann.
While out on the back patio Jennie told Duncan and Kendra that James told her he’s gonna rape the s#%@ out of her. She decided it needed to be addressed in group. As soon as group started Jennie let Dr. Drew know that she started having flashbacks of being raped because of what James told her. James then said he meant to bring “joy” to her by saying that. He is totally out of his mind. There are lots of flirtatious and sexual remarks you can make to play but using the word rape is just off limits. So now basically everyone is against James.

This week Adam went to little Rock, Arkansas to take on a pulled pork spicy BBQ sandwich with a sauce called shut up juice. Adam first went to Jenning BBQ, he cooks BBQ for local police and firefighters. Each portion consists of a turkey leg, a pulled pork sandwich, a whole chicken, ribs and brisket. Whatever is not finished is saved to share, so nothing goes to waste.
Before the challenge Adam went to Cothams to try the biggest burger in town “the hubcap”. Cothams was built in 1917 as a general mercantile store in the Scott area for area farmers and plantation owners. In 1984, a small eating area was opened to serve lunch to area farmers. Adam decided to get the quadruple hubcap with double dipped onion rings. The burger and onion rings looked very tasty. I’d probably take it home and work on it for about a week!
Adams final stop was at Mean Pigs BBQ to attempt the habinero pulled pork challenge. The pork shoulders are smoked outback. Out of the thousands who have tried the challenge only 60 survived. Adam was already sweating after the first couple of bites. Adam then decided to eat it as fast as he could to finish. Adam had to keep it down for 5 min. after finishing it.which looked easy enough because he was able to have beverages. So Adam successfully completed another challenge. I think by now he has a stomach of iron!

On the final episode of “Jon and Kate Plus 8″ Jon Gosselin showed even more of his true colors. He admitted he wasn’t spending much time with his children after leaving Kate. Jon then continued to say something like, he felt free because he got married and had kids in his early 20’s and never got to enjoy the partying lifestyle. I mean come on Jon, that was your choice! There is never any reason to back out of your responsibilities.
Then when Mady and Kara were acting up a little and telling Jon they like things their mom does with them better while making signs for the lemonade stand, Jon acted totally inappropriately. He scolded them, wouldn’t let them finish their signs and wouldn’t allow them to come to the lemonade stand instead of talking to them about the underlying issue.
I just had to let out my frustration towards Jon Gosselin again after watching the Final episode. You suck Jon!

On this weeks episode of “Sex Rehab” everyone started going through sexual withdrawal and trippin out. In group Keri Ann finally started to participate and Kendra decided not to because of her hatred of Keri Ann. Phil is getting especially antsy and anxious. He admitted in therapy it has been getting super hard not to touch himself in the shower.
Keri Ann continued to walk around with her but crack hanging out everyday. Phil was especially agitated by it. I wonder if Keri Ann even realizes what her clothes look like on her and if she is aware her but crack is always out.
In the art therapy workshop most everyone let out a lot of bottled up anger. It was very emotional when Phil started yelling “why did you die mom!”.
Dr. Drew was asking James if he was ever abused in therapy. James said he had never been abused then said his mom threw a machete at him when he was 9.
Everyone was allowed to have visitors today and when Keri Ann had her friend bring her tiaras Duncan tried one on. That made Kendra furious to see Duncan getting along with her. Now I think Kendra is the one acting childish. I don’t think everyone should alienate Keri Ann and make her feel like crap just because of the way she acted.
If your as hooked as me you’ll have to tune in next week to see all the craziness.

Tonight is the night we have all been waiting for, the season finale of Diet Tribe is finally here. At the final workout Jessie was impresses to see all the ladies working out by themselves. He wanted the ladies to show him the exercises they learned. They showed him the exercises they love the best, and they did them properly on their own. They have really came along way. At the begining they could only stay on a treadmill for a minute or so.
Stacy had the girls do the zip rank challenge because they were so freaked out in the beginning about the leap of faith. Everyone truly enjoyed going down the zip rank though. It really looked like so much fun. I want to try that sometime for sure.
Jessie picked all the ladies up the night before the triathlon so they can get set up in their hotels because they had to get up extremely early to start the triathlon. Everyone was pretty nervous about completing especially Mary. Stephanie really tried her best to help everyone keep their cool though. During the swim Mary and Rita stuck together because neither one of them really like the water. Lanissa had the most trouble on the bikes. Stephanie finished the bikes first. She was also first to finish the Triathlon, that was a huge goal to accomplish. Then one by one the rest of the girls finished the triathlon. That was such an emotional moment to see each and every one of the ladies complete such a huge task.
As soon as the triathlon was over the girls and their families all boarded the Mariner of The Seas ship. Immediately after they all got a makeover. Then the moment had arrived for the final weigh in. Everyone of them walked in looking like movie stars. Lanissa lost 61 lbs. altogether. Rita lost 33 lbs. she was only 2 lbs. from her goal. Mary lost 51 lbs. Tiffany lost 46 lbs. Stephanie lost 51 lbs. and passes her goal. Everyone of them have grown closer bonds and have more confidence then ever before.

On this weeks episode of “The Real Housewives of Orange County” Slade and Gretchen were talking about possibly getting married and having kids someday. Slade has had a vasectomy but he said he would consider having it reversed.
Tamra went to visit Geana to see if she was going to the la perla party. Geana let it be known she was through with the housewives and all their drama and she wasn’t going to go.
Alexis is the new housewife. She is a stay at home knockout mom that has two nannies and a controlling husband. When her and her husband went out to lunch, she reminded me a lot of myself the way she escalates her voice when on the defensive even in public.
When Geana went to visit Vicki to let her know she wasn’t coming to the party it seemed Geana was making an honest effort to be friendly. Vicki, unfortunately just wasn’t having it. The sad thing is both Vicki and Tamra both were nice to Geana’s face then talked behind Geana’s back after speaking with her.
Alexis and her family went over to Tamra’s for dinner. It was very obvious that Tamra is extremely jealous of Alexis.
At the la perla lingerie party Alexis didn’t want to try on lingerie because her husband told her not to and other men were around. Of coarse Tamra judged that and mentioned how she was wearing a small bikini at her house. Tamra and Gretchen were being amazingly nice to each other for the evening and Vicki was being surprisingly nice to the new girl.
The show ended with Geana going over the friendship she she used to have with Vicki, how Tamra likes to be the mean girl and how she herself regretted once being mean to Lynn. Geana is not going to be hanging out with the ladies. She has no regrets but is glad this part of her life is over.
