Rock of Love Charm School: Season Finale Recap

Rock of Love Charm School: Season Finale Recap

A season's worth of trashy women trying to learn proper manners comes to a close with the season finale of Rock of Love Charm School. Destiney Moore, Brandi M. and Lacey Conner remain, but only one can be the Charm School champion.

The final lesson is about charity. Lacey is comfortable because she comes from a wealthy family and does a lot of charity work, Meanwhile, Destiney and Brandi M. both grew up on welfare. Each girl must set up a booth to ask people on the street for charitable donations, and the highest total gets immunity.

The twist is that Sharon brings in the girls' arch-nemeses to help them, so Lacey works with Heather, Brandi M. works with Megan, and Destiney works with Brandi C. It's a recipe for disaster, mostly for the show's editors because Megan and Heather are both a light breeze away from exposing their nipples.

Brandi C. wants to use her hotness for the greater good while Heather is surprisingly willing to help Lacey. Megan, however, plans to sabotage Brandi M. with a fairly detailed three-part plan. First she has people leave donated items on the ground, then she puts some of the donated items in Lacey's box, and finally she only tries to have people donate the cheapest items. I'm glad to see Rock of Love Charm School hasn't changed her at all.

Lacey adopts the unusual approach of yelling at people who don't want to donate. Brandi C. is only slightly nicer about it, telling people, “If you don't give, it's bad karma and you'll be ugly for the rest of your life.”

After Riki Rachtman makes a joke about the girls working on Hollywood Boulevard for 90 minutes in hooker outfits, the totals are revealed. In spite of Megan's best efforts to sabotage, Brandi M. wins by a decent margin, and Megan is visibly disappointed that her team won despite the fact that she spent most of her time collecting 53 pens totaling $2.65 of a more than $120 total.

Rock of Love Charm School Elimination Time #1! Riki is furious that Lacey yelled at people, but Lacey has no regrets yelling at those “heartless a**holes” who didn't donate. Sharon, however, understands where Lacey was coming from. Regardless, Sharon expels Lacey.

The next day, the final two are invited to Sharon's house for lunch. Since I've seen The Osbournes, I don't see how this well test their etiquette skills since that family is a disgusting trainwreck when it comes to proper manners. Their house is on the beach, and while the Osbournes don't really use it, Sharon admits that Jack uses it as his “love den.” That's almost as bad as showing naked baby pictures.

The lunch is less about Destiney and Brandi M., and more about Sharon's journey to success. Sharon asks them to both write a speech about why they should win. The girls and Sharon all stress out accompanied by montages of their strongest moments. They get nice evening gowns for the finale, Brandi M. in red, Destiney in black.

Rock of Love Charm School Final Elimination! The judges have nothing but praise for both of the finalists. Destiney's speech is emotional, mostly about how her father's death made her want to change and be a better person. Brandi M.'s speech is about how she's no longer a burping, farting, puking stripper and porn star because she has a newfound respect for herself. Halfay through, she rips up her speech and speaks from the heart.

In the end, Sharon Osbourne picks a winner, and the winner of Rock of Love Charm School is...BRANDI M!

She wins a Charm School dilpoma and, more importantly, $100,000. There are tears and happiness, and it's a nice moment. Destiney gets a nice parting gift when judge Daniella Clark offers her an internship for her design company.


Rock of Love Charm School may be over, but 2009 will have plenty more great trashy VH1 reality shows. In two weeks, we get the reunion special, with the much talked about Sharon Osbourne-Megan Hauserman smackdown. Also in two weeks, Bret Michaels takes another stab at finding true love in the third season of Rock of Love which takes place on his tour bus.

Then on January 11, it's the premiere of Tool Academy, a male version of Charm School that takes a group of extremely douchebaggy guys and tries to turn them into sophisticated men. And if that's not enough for you, season 2 of I Love Money premieres in February. That's one heck of a way to ring in the new year.
