today, saturday, august 12th, mtv aired an episode of "celebrity dream date" with the 5 guys of 2gether. this blonde-haired girl won it, her name was "danyele", if i remember correctly.

basically, to win a date with 2gether, girls (this was filmed at mtv's summer beach house in san diego) had to go down to the "SoCal" beach house and apply. they "trimmed" the hopeful winners down by inserting a certain title of a song in 2gether's c.d. single, "the hardest part of breaking up." ten (very, very, very) lucky gals got to move on to the next round because their 2gether c.d. single contained the title of the song that was pulled out of a fish bowl brimming with many song titles (written on light-blue pieces of paper). so these ten girls were divided up into two competing teams of five. they had to dance, prance, basically, strut their stuff for 2gether on stage (a boardwalk, actually). the 5 guys put their heads together to pick a winner, either the 1st group by the name of "girl trouble" or the 2nd group of girls by the name of "PMStrogen" (very clever, huh?). the 2nd group won, moving on to the next level.

at the next level, they no longer worked as a team, but fought each other to move on to the next round. here, they had to act out requests that the 2gether member they were assigned to asked of them. the 3 girls with the highest scores moved on to the 3rd round. at the 3rd round, they had to gain points by correctly answering trivia questions about 2gether, their movie, and their imminent t.v. series. the girls with the 2 highest scores moved on to the next (and last) round which basically revolved around the concept of swimming underwater in a pool provided by the beach house, picking up pictures of all the guys from 2gether, and running back up onto the boardwalk to match each 2gether guy with his own "celebrity dream date."

guess who "jerry" picked? kristin gore...he proceeded to explain his choice by calling himself a "gore whore." mickey was very funny (as always!) because he picked "jennifer lopez' ass." he explained his choice by saying something like, "i don't want to go out with her face...just her ass." chad picked this doll (go figure, his obsession with the weirdest things keeps on going). doug chose julia louis-dreyfus, who played elaine on "seinfeld," saying how on that show, she always had man trouble and he would be the one to cure it. qt, everyone's favorite dewy-eyed youngster, picked this all-girls' soccer team, saying how he can't settle with just one girl so he'll take them all...and he liked how they so expertly knew "how to pass the ball around, if you know what i mean."
