'Rock of Love' keeps the crazy

Rock of Love has been fairly boring of late, I think largely because some of the show's most flamboyant characters were kicked off a few weeks ago. Apparently Rodeo and Brandi were adding much more to the house dynamic that it originally seemed.

The most (supposedly) interesting person left is Lacey, and she's just plain annoying. She's manipulating the house, she's bossy, she's a hypocrite. (The biggest example of this last is that she will scream and yell at all the other women about their animal products, but she never, ever says anything to Bret Michaels about his ankle-length leather or snakeskin coats. Last night, I noticed that at least part of the floor in the house they're staying in seemed to be covered in giraffe skin. But she uses her anger strategically and never aims it at Bret, who is among the biggest offenders.

Most everyone else is pretty boring. Jes is way too normal, pink hair notwithstanding. Heather is trashy and not that interesting. The remaining of the two Brandis is laid-back to the point of not really connecting with the audience anymore. Sam has so much baggage that I can't imagine Bret would pick her, even though they do seem to connect.

But I honestly don't care. As long as Lacey leaves soon, since I suspect she is being kept around for (supposed) entertainment value. The other women are so beaten down by her that they haven't done anything besides whine and mope for a while.

I suspect if she gets kicked out, the less whiny drama will ramp up again as the finals approach.
