"It was about what all the girls should have been saying all along ... (I wanted) to talk about reality and not fantasy. If you didn't learn anything then just say it. If you didn't feel that Mo'Nique was the right person to represent us on that show, then just say it. And I was the only one who said anything ... felt that everything she feels the girls were dealing with, she's dealing with as well. And she didn't like that I said that. It was to be said. She needed to hear what we had to say instead of her preaching to us all the time. Instead of showing her faults and then us all moving on together, all she did was preach."
-- Runaway reality TV personality Larissa "Bootz" Aurora about 'Flavor of Love Girls: Charm School' head mistress Mo'Nique. (EURweb.com)

Larissa needs to take this as a LEANING EXPERIENCE. that is her MAJOR problem. she has TOO much mouth and not applying her haering and taking heed to when someone is trying to teach her how to present herself as a lady which she AND her mother are SO far from. Before the reunion, i wondered why she acts the way she does. I saw why whe her mother came on the show acting the way she did. All i have to say is LaRissa, you have a LONG way to go.

Larrissa is dumb. Mon'Nique did the best anybody could do for those crazy women. Larrissa turned herself into New York by her performance on the show and acted like she was okay with her attitude. She was manipulative, mean, stubborn, unpredictable and very insecure. So it wasn't a surprise that she didn't learn anything at the end even when Mon'Nique got in her face during the reunion. The same goes for Brooke who was nasty during the prom dance. She left learning absolutly nothing. Don't blame Mon'Nique for making yourself look like a fool.

Larrissa was always my girl on Charm School because she always spoke her mind if you did something f**ked up she would call you on it. I really like the way that she said what was on her mind at the time she really didnt care who feelings she was hurting as long as she got her point across.

Larrisa is a fake a** b*tch. See won't bust a grape talking all the mess. She don't keep it real at all. Keeping it real is one thing..but talking down on people to make yourself feel better and taking advantage of people is something all together different... I am all for keeping it all the way 100%.. she on the other had went against the code when she turned on her friend Shae. I can't stand a back stabbing b*tch and that is what she is. You are always suppose to KEEP IT REAL and STAY TRUE to you peoples... If she ever finds herself here in Cleveland we can teach her to keep it all 100 for sho !!!

I feel as though Monique was absolutely correct. Larissa showed herself to be a stubborn, immature, out of control little girl. It's sad that others don't see her for what she is. I believe it is unforunate that we feel especially as black women that we have to be loud, obnoxious, and rude to feel as though we have to be heard. She could have chosen to present her feeling in a different manner. It's ok to show your behind at home behind closed doors, but when the "whole world" is watching. We need to be careful of the way that we carry ourselves because it is through this that we continue cultivate negative stereotypes of ourselves. Check yourselves sistas

Bootz needs to go sit down some damn where. She is to hot tempered and that's all Monique was trying to inform her of. Not to be mean to Bootz or to condescend her. But, as we all can see, Bootz is nothing more than a child that lacks real confidence and poise. She is just too, childish and Monique should have never agreed to have her come to that show. Watching the way Bootz acted on previous reality t.v. shows should have made Monique aware that Bootz was just too much. I do like the fact that she speaks her mind, but there is a certain way you do it in when you are in certain situations. You have to learn how to control your temper/ghettoness. Like Mo told pumpkin, 40 years from now when your grand children say can I do that, Grandma? what will she say???? Monique is not only the Queen of comedy but a damn good actress and role model and bootz needs to respect that!!! Point Blank!!!
and by the way I feel Shay should have won!!!!
You are beautiful Shay!!!!!!!

I used to like Larissa on Flavor of Love but she turned into a real idiot on Charm School. If talking louder than everyone else, cussing out the host of the show, and acting like a straight up skeezer is admirable then count me out. Her greedy ass just thought that she was going to win that 50 grand and I am so glad she couldn't keep up her fake front. The money went to the right person. Yeah Saphyrri!!!

Bootz....was a drama queen! It is true people reap what they sow and her time is coming. That is messed up how she hid Leiline's mother's pictures. She was hateful and conniing. Maybe if she shuts her mouth sometimes she might actually learn something!!!
