New York, best known for her role on the first season of Flavor of Love, acquired a reputation for being the show's contestant that clashed with virtually every single other contestant. She made it all the way to the final two, and then went berserk when her beloved Flava Flav chose the other contestant, Hoops. New York pulled herself together enough to make it onto the show's second season, and before long, she had her own reality show, I Love New York.
