VH1 has ordered another unscripted series featuring Tiffany “New York” Pollard.

The new series, New York Goes To Work, will feature the perennial VH1 star tackling a new job each week, as voted in by fans in a text message poll. If she impresses her employers, Pollard will receive a $5,000 bonus, if she quits or gets fired, she gets nothing. Viewers will be able to vote on three choices each week, which could include working in a mortuary, a sewer plant or a fast food joint.

Pollard made her debut on VH1 as a contestant on Flavor of Love, the dating show featuring rapper Flavor Flav, in 2006. That appearance led to two spinoff series, I Love New York and New York Goes to Hollywood.

Public Enemy May Hit Theaters As Animated Feature Film

FROM SPLASH PAGE: We’ve seen our share of comic books heroes make the jump from the four-color page to the silver screen over the years, but could we be on the verge of seeing a comic book enemy — better yet, Public Enemy — heading to the multiplex

While we’re not in the habit of breaking stories based on anonymous sources, a tipster dropped us a line recently and mentioned that the faces of the iconic rap crew — Chuck D and Flavor Flav — are in talks with a major animation studio to produce a feature film based on the band and their recent comic book exploits, with an all-new P.E. album being recorded for the movie. A second, very reliable source then backed up the original tipster’s claim, stating a script is indeed in the works, adding, “The first ‘Public Enemy’ graphic novel collection comes out in May and there is a lot of interest from Hollywood.”

Flavor Flav celebrated his 50th birthday

By Remmie Fresh

Rapper/television star Flavor Flav celebrated his 50th birthday last night (March 15) at BB King's nightclub in New York City with a concert with Public Enemy.

The rapper was joined by Ice-T and Coco, boxing trainer/commentator Emmanuelle Stewart, Grand Master Melle Mel and others like his wife Liz.

As a special request, Ice-T performed "Six In The Morning" as Flavor Flav played the drums.

Chuck D, the lead rapper in Public Enemy, played hype man, a role usually reserved for Flavor.

Flavor Flav said to fellow rapper Ice T, "Thank you for not beating me the f**k up for when I crashed your Ferrari."

Ice-T revealed the incident happened in 1987 and Flav stated that he still had the tail light from the expensive vehicle.

Flavor Flav thanked a bevy of rappers, friends and family as a huge cake was presented on stage.

Public Enemy performed tracks from their album It Takes A Nation Of Millions To Hold Us Back and other hits such as "Welcome To The Terrordome."

AllHipHop.com streamed the event live last night.

Flavor Flav's birthday is today (March 16).
