Rock of Love Charm School: Episode 7 "Fugly Dating" Recap
Sunday, November 23, 2008

We all know the girls from Rock of Love are all losers in the game of love, so this week on Rock of Love Charm School, Sharon gives them dating tips. A relationship coach comes in to tell the girls they shouldn't get emotional or talk about their exes, and as Brandi C. points out, it all boils down to “Don't be a slut.” This is going to be harder than I thought.

Making matters worse, Sharon brings in a team of “unstylists” to give the girls ugly makeovers so they can't rely on their looks. Being made ugly simply means putting on a fat suit and a bunch of moles. Fat girls with moles around the country should be angry that Charm School is saying they're ugly, although, to be fair, the girls do look pretty ugly after their makeovers.
The girls then go on five-minute dates with three eligible bachelors, and the show has someone managed to score some pretty big guest stars.

Bachelor #1 is a real bachelor, literally. He was the star of ABC'S The Bachelor in season 7 and is the brother of a famous actor. Meet...Charlie O'Connell! Bachelor #2 is a Grammy-nominated singer who made it big on American Idol. Meet...Ace Young! And Bachelor #3 is a no-name advertising executive who I suppose is supposed to be a modern-day Don Draper. Meet...John Wolfe!

Lacey fails miserably, blathering on about herself the whole time. Brandi C. wants to have S&M sex with John Wolfe. Brandi M. Is surprisingly comfortable and peasant on her dates. And Kristy Joe is woefully awkward, but the deck is stacked against her since she wears the largest fat suit.

In the end, both Charlie and John choose Brandi M. As the winner, while Ace chooses Destiney. As the winners, both get to go out to a club with the guys, without the ugly makeover. The other girls get to go to, only they must stay in costume. Heather and Brandi C. get depressed because of this and consume mass quantities of alcohol.

'Bachelor' Couple Back Together!

Posted by ExtraTV Staff on November 20, 2008 2:42 PM


Buff babe Charlie O'Connell went on the search of a lifetime to find the love of his life as "The Bachelor" in 2005. Charlie offered southern belle Sarah Brice the final rose, and after the finale the couple moved in together in L.A. In 2007, they called it quits. Brice admitted to "Extra," "I needed to go out and become my own person and figure out who I really was and what I wanted."

A year later, Charlie and Sarah are rekindling their romance, Charlie reveals, "I think the breakup really helped our relationship." The handsome actor and TV host says he is no longer drinking. Brice admits O'Connell's drinking was an issue when they first started dating. The two have changed for the better and Sarah says it's getting serious again, "Obviously, we will live together again. But I kind of don't want to live together until we are married... when the time is right, we will know."

Reality TV romances in the real world are known to fizzle. "The Bachelorette" DeAnna Pappas and fiancé Jesse Csincsak broke off their engagement earlier this month. O'Connell says he isn't surprised, "It's really hard after being in the bubble of 'The Bachelor' to then go and live in the real world and not really knowing each other." Brice added, "I think when you're in the spotlight and you're placed in that situation, it's very easy to feel like you're in love, but I think after all that wears off, the core issues start to come out."

The Bachelor’s Charlie O’Connell & Sarah Brice Reunite

The Bachlorette’s DeAnna Pappas and Jesse Csincsak may have called it quits, but it’s not all bad news for reality couples: former Bachelor Charlie O’Connell confirms to PEOPLE he and Sarah Brice are giving their relationship another shot.

“Everything’s going great right now,” says O’Connell, who gave Brice the final rose on The Bachelor’s spring 2005 season. Following the show’s finale, the couple moved in together in Los Angeles, but split in April 2007. Now, after spending most of the summer talking on the phone, the couple are giving love another shot.

“We’re not taking each other for granted,” he says. “I enjoy hanging out with her.”

So, is the couple ready to settled down? Perhaps. “My brother’s got kids coming,” says O’Connell, 33, of his brother Jerry, who is expecting twin girls with wife Rebecca Romijn soon. “We did look at houses together last weekend. I’m not saying moving in isn’t a possibility.”

For now, though, they’re taking baby steps. “Sara and I are babysitting a friend of ours,” he says. “That’s our Friday night date.” – Lisa Ingrassia

Posted by LoudLittleLaura

If you've been crying into your pillow ever since DeAnna Pappas dumped her Bachelorette lover Jesse Csincsak, this outta cheer you up.
Charlie O'Connell, from season seven of The Bachelor, is back together with his girlfriend Sarah Brice - the chick he gave his final rose to back in 2005.

The rekindled couple split in '07 - but not before their reality pairing created two years of good lovin'.

'I definitely thought I'd spend the rest of my life with him -- I think we both did,' Sarah told In Touch right after the split, adding that 'there were some things between us that we couldn't resolve.'

Well, apparently the phrase 'if you let something go and it comes back, it's yours' is in order, because here Charlie and Sarah are - reunited like old times.

Isn't love grand?

Dr. Tattoff to offer free tattoo removal

Bad tatts are everywhere. And, for one day only, Southern California’s leading tattoo removal chain, Dr. TATTOFF, has made it their mission to rid Angelenos of old body graffiti by offering free tattoo removal. For the first time ever, Los Angeles’s tattooed community will congregate in one place to remove their bad body art. This is not to be missed!
On February 25, 2008 anyone who shows up between the hours of 8:00 AM to 8:00 PM at Dr. TATTOFF’s Beverly Hills office, located at 8500 Wilshire Blvd., Beverly Hills, CA 90211 will receive free treatment. Patients will be treated on a first come first served basis and can get up to six (6) inches treated.
The idea for OPERATION INK-OFF originated with Dr. TATTOFF Medical Director, Dr. Will Kirby. As one of the country’s foremost experts on tattoo removal and current star of E!’s Dr. 90210, Dr. Kirby has met many people who have tattoos they want removed, but who lack motivation to begin the removal process.
“In my business, I am constantly meeting people who want to get their tattoos taken off but for one reason or another have not started. It’s a new year, and I thought what a great way to help people by cleaning up their old graffiti and giving them a fresh start.”
Dr. Kirby will personally be on-hand that day to meet and treat patients, along with Dr. TATTOFF nurse and former “Bachelor” winner, Sarah Brice. HER Energy Drink has also graciously agreed to donate drinks to attendees.
Other confirmed celebrities include Dr. TATTOFF founder “My Fair Brady” star Christopher Knight, actor Jai Rodriguez, and “Bachelor” star actor Charlie O’Connell.
Dr. TATTOFF is cleaning up Los Angeles, one canvas at a time…

Curses! There's another "Bachelor" breakup! In Touch is reporting Charlie O'Connell (brother of Mr. Romijn, Jerry) and his nurse-lady, Sarah Brice, have hit Splitsville after two years together. A lifetime in reality TV show hookup years!

"We split a few months ago -- it was a clean breakup, nothing out of control," Sarah told the mag. "I definitely thought I'd spend the rest of my life with him -- I think we both did -- but there were some things between us that we couldn't resolve." Maybe the fact that they met on a TV show?!

Sarah says she's still "best friends" with the Charlie, who "starred" in "Dude, Where's My Car?" and added, "We still love each other a lot."

And in case you were wondering who'll get the couple's dog, Lucy, sleep tight. Sarah's keeping her.

From grace: Anything on the new Bachelor?
Korbi Ghosh: Gotta step in here for K.V., 'cause K.G. has some craziness to share! On Friday, I stopped at Urth Caffé to have lunch...and whom did I find myself sitting next to but Charlie O'Connell and Sarah Brice, the girl he picked on The Bachelor? What are the chances?! And what did I overhear?! They were freakin' breaking up! I couldn't believe my ears. Basically, it sounded like Sarah is ready to start planning a wedding, but Charlie isn't. In fact, I heard him say he isn't ready to even think about getting married. He was very sweet and kept apologizing to her. They were very quiet and seemed sad. Looks like the end is near for yet another Bachelor duo...

Kraken Name Game Praised

Charlie O'Connell, who stars in the upcoming SCI FI Channel original movie Kraken: Tentacles of the Deep, told SCI FI Wire that he thought it was a brilliant idea to have SCIFI.COM visitors pick the movie's name. Kraken was originally titled Deadly Water and features former Sliders star O'Connell, Victoria Pratt and Jack Scalia, battling a massive squid that protects a much sought-after relic.

"That was a lot of fun," O'Connell said in an interview. "The only thing that threw me off was that in the beginning I was telling my mother to look out for Deadly Waters. But I think [Kraken] is a great name, and I think it's a lot of fun to have the fans interact right from the beginning. I think it gets [the movie] a lot more hype." (A kraken is a legendary sea monster, taken from an old Norwegian word.)

O'Connell said that he had a great time shooting Kraken. Part of it, he explained, had to do with the fact that he's a major SF fan. "I've been doing sci-fi ever since I did Sliders with my brother [Jerry O'Connell], and that was for SCI FI. It's a lot of fun, because every day is different, and you don't know what to expect. On Kraken, it was a lot of action, a lot of running around. At one point I got to shoot what I call the 'Rambo gun.' I don't know; I have a lot of fun doing these things. And being able to scuba dive [in Kraken] was very enjoyable." Kraken: Tentacles of the Deep premieres Sept. 23 at 9 p.m. ET/PT. —Ian Spelling

Thirty years ago, Ray Reiter watched in horror as a giant squid attacked and killed his parents. The creature escaped, but not before young Ray destroyed one of its eyes. When the one-eyed beast re-emerges, attacking a crew of a treasure hunting expedition, Ray joins the team, in hopes of exacting his revenge.
