The old adage said "there's nothing like a woman scorned."
But when two sharp-tongued, no-holds barred media personalities butt heads, all hell is bound to break loose.
Just when my nerves were just starting to get un-worked after the brutal media fued between Rosie O'Donnell and Donald Trump a couple of months ago, a new spat may be brewing between reality TV vixen Miss New York and controversial radio shock jock Miss Jones.
The two women have become sensations in their respective field by pandering to the hip-hop underbelly and repeatedly cavorting their wares to the low class ilk.
Jones, legally known as Tarsha Nicole Jones, is a former telephone operator and back-up singer for rap legend Doug E. Fresh. In the mid-1990s, the Astoria, Queens native signed with Motown Records, after a stint with indie label Stepsun Records didn't pan out.
Already building a thriving fan base with underground singles 'Don't Front' and 'Where I Wanna Be Boy,' her major label opus, 'The Other Woman,' quickly established her as a name to be reckoned with amongst the crop of burgeoning hip-hop soul singers.
From there, she tapped into her gift of gab and audience connectivity by reinventing herself as a weekend radio host on New York City's hip-hop station Hot 97. Within a few years, Jones rose in the ranks -- paying her dues and even enduring a co-hosting stint with Troi "Star" Torrain -- to become one of the station's marquee talents.
However, controversy and misfortune continues to follow her throughout her career; unconfirmed reports of a failed marriage attempt, alleged domestic abuse and a miscarriage, along with very public media thrashings for remarks made about transit workers and an infamous Tsunami disaster skit have become her legend.
So what does Miss Jones (a.k.a Jonesy) have to do with Miss New York?
Well their two paths recently collided during an explosive telephone interview where Jones lambasted New York for lying about going to the tony Syracuse University. "Y'all bitches gonna learn," Jones, an alum, chided after abruptly hanging up the phone on her. "Y'all gonna stop calling up in here testing me." (Listen to the interview here).
We all know Miss New York (legally known as Tiffany Pollard, or Tiffany Patterson --depending on who you ask): She's the larger-than-life subject of VH1's runaway hit 'I Love New York' -- a spinoff of Flavor Flav's wildly popular 'Flavor of Love' series.
With the promotion of her show's season finale (airing on April 2), New York has been making the media rounds, once again.
And she is pulling no punches about her disdain for Jones, either.
"First of all, Miss Jones doesn't appeal to me in any type of way," she fired off on VH1's Celebreality Blog yesterday. "I don't have any respect for her. She's very angry. She's very nasty. She was asking me very personal questions about myself and I wasn't going to answer her honestly, because I felt like she wasn't really interested in my life. She was trying to attack me. So, of course, I just played with her. And her being a radio personality, she knew I wasn't being honest. I didn't care, I knew I had to get through that interview and remain professional. But I will say this: I think she's a fat, bitter bitch."
Whoa.
"I wasn't going to let anyone ruin my morning," she continued. "You can only push my buttons if I allow you to, and I didn't allow her to push my buttons. She would have loved to have gotten into it with me. Who wouldn't want to get into it with me? That could have boosted her career that never went anywhere. She was an aspiring singer that never did anything. Miss Jones sucks. She gained about 80 lbs. She looks terrible."
That's a much.

I could see NY side because they called her a "hobo" and said she had "no talent". I mean Ny did stay perfessional during the interview usually NY would be like "Bitch let me tell you something " but she was like "I Not answering that cause your just trying to dance around with me" and then Ms. Jones was like answer the question, Ny lied and Ms. Jones went off hanging up. I mean Ms. Jones needs to be more perfessional because that's why white people get the image that all us black people is go off like "oh no you didnt". Like on Oprah when that man lied about his book Oprah wasnt running kicking off her shoes she just said "u lied and you need to admit it". I mean when they called her "talentless" NY said "I'm not going to respond with cusing because we're doing an interview"
Here's the interview!!

I'm not a big fan of New York, but she wasn't the one who acted classless. Miss Jones is obviously bitter because she is a one hit wonder, well a no hit wonder since her only single didn't go anywhere. The way she conduct her interviews are funny, but very hideous. She actually goes to far with the word "Bitch." It's funny how someone like Don Imus gets banned from radio, but Miss Jones doesn't. I am a black man and I am saying that. She made that horrible mocking of Aaliyah's death, which was not funny at all. Miss Jones was jealous of Aaliyah so that's why she did that. She also made a mocking song of the tsunami that hit a few years back. Jonesy is a bitter bitch with no class. She is worse then Wendy Williams. Jonesy is going to mess with the wrong one, and she will get hers. I won't be surprised if she does.
