Winner Taya kep
t wearing Penthous
e
T-shirts and
mentioni
ng her Pet of the Year status more than once, such that her appearance on the show seemed due to
omotional consideration. When she sang one week as p
rt of a competition, her ambi
tions in music were finally revealed. She also failed to tell everybody of the title she holds as 2007/2009 exotic dancer entertainer of the year.
Everybody, Bret included, suspected she was on the show to further exploit her various achievements and become a star, so it looked like she wasn't going to be chosen at the end - an end Michaels said will be his last.
"This is the last time I want to this," he told the two on the finale's outset before refining his declaration:. "This is the last time I will do this." (See? It's in writing).
Many doubted Michael's real intent when he promptly dropped the women on the first two seasons of "Rock of Love," itself a variant of a celebreality dating show that had gone three seasons, "Flavor of Love."
This time he said it out loud: "I am not commitment phobic. That is untrue."
Still, as he hung out with the final two on the island, the more he suggested that maybe there could be life for the three of them together.
And indeed, Taya and Mindy distinguished themselves as friends early on the competition - and not only because as brunettes they stood out from the rest of the pack. But when Taya got mad over a crack Mindy made over Taya being there to advance her singing career, the tussle seemed to overshadow the 24-hour drooling over Bret. Bret called them on it, as if to say: "Back to work girls. The focus is right over here, under this bandana."
Taya seemed like more refined arm candy - she refused to stay overnight with him on their final date, a calculated move meant to make him want her more.
But there was never a good reason for his dropping of Mindy.
"I love everything about you," he told Mindy. "But the ring is not for you."
Nor was it for Taya, whom he said he was only 99 percent in love with (the 1 percent held his doubts about her motivation).
Still, he withdrew from giving the ring from Taya, saying he'd like to get to know her a little better before giving it to her "at right place and right time."
But, he clarified: "You are my 'Rock of Love' OK?'"
Mindy for her part called him "a standard jerk in a rock star uniform" who took her heart and "ran over it with a tour bus."
It took Taya a while to absorb the win. "I had to almost subconsciously smack myself in the face," Taya said in a voice-over narration. "I could be the luckiest girl in the world."
But maybe not, Taya. Maybe not.
brittanya should have won shes effin tight!!!!1
Ewww quick frankly they deserve each other. I quickly grew tired of her not so hidden agenda, their porn star make-out sessions and his overinflated ego. She got a middle aged rock n roll has-been for her prize. And he, I guess he got the booby prize after all. He definately has a thing for neurotic pole dancers.
I watched a little of the first season Rock of Love, and only caught maybe the last four episodes of this third season only because I was shocked that Bret's last three girls were not blonde! I saw a show on VH1 about rock star marriages and Alice Cooper said it best when he said something along the lines of.....you wonder why you're on you're third marriage because you keep marrying strippers...it's because she's a stripper! Now Bret has not been married before but this kind of reminds me of that. I think he would have been better off with Mindy if he was looking for a long term relationship. She seemed to be more down to earth. But surprise, he picked the Penthouse Pet! Yes Bret, who would have thunk it.
