Bad Girls Club, Kenner: Ep.3 Live Blog


When we left the girls in Kenner (brah,) things were getting dicey, and Mardi gras was approaching. The girls move into Byron Scott's old mansion in Kenner; Judi attaches herself to an oversized, voodoo-stuffed enigma, spits on the other girls' pizza, and gets poured on by enough liquids to make a martini. Then Shelly coordinates a coup de Judi.


Bad Girls Club New Orleans Season Premieres Tonight


On Saturday, admitted reality show novice Edwin Edwards said he wouldn't participate in a reality show that made him look bad. Well, the silver fox and Trina better curl up on the couch and take notes tonight. Oxygen premieres the New Orleans-shot season of their show, The Bad Girls Club. The season was filmed primarliy at the seven participants' made-for-TV sanctuary in Kenner. Bits and pieces about the show have already leaked out. They were just that Bad.


Bad Girls in the Big Easy


You'd think that the Oxygen Network would keep it PC, but apparently the 'Bad Girls Club' is stirring up some trouble outside their house o' drama. The premise of the show consists of nine wily women that come together in efforts to be tamed, concerned that their ridiculous behavior is taking its toll on professional and romantic potentials. The test is whether their living together will calm things down, or (for the sake of reality TV expectations) only spiral into a coop of crazy chicks .
