The latest episode of Bromance put the boys' panties in a bunch ... literally. And while the whole lot of 'em thought the bedazzled, low-riding  Brody Jenner Jeans were a bad look, they stepped onto the red carpet with big cheers for their BJs. Watch the clip!

BONUS: Rememba that scene from The 40-Year-Old Virgin where Steve Carell gets his chest hair waxed? Sure looked like it hurt, right? That's cuz it does. Lots! And now Luke has firsthand knowledge of the pain. Watch this clip of his bro-mandated trip to the spa and feel the burn...

After narrowing it down to two Shot At Love hopefuls, it's time for the Ikkis to decide what -- and who -- they really want. And it's not like Trevor's making it any easier on them. True, he manned up and (secretly!) told Rikki he luuuurved her, but he didn't exactly discount the possibility that he's still carrying a torch for both twins.

+ Think Trevor's got his decision all figured out? Or is he just hedging his bets by telling both Ikkis what they wanna hear? You tell us: Has Trevor found his soulmate? Or his he just head-over-heels with the idea of being in love?

There are only a few desserts out there that I dislike. Flan is one of them. It's essentially a combination of creme brulee and rice pudding -- both things I like -- so I'm not sure what the problem is. What I do know is that when you put those two desserts together, I gag. (Sort of like how I'll happily chase a chocolate bar with a fistful of pretzels, but I'd rather lick a hobo than chew on a chocolate-covered pretzel...)

So when one of the Ikki Twins seemed aroused by Travis' "flanny" breath in this week's D-Shot, I just knew I would be flanning it up for MTV Detox. Sadly, my gag reflex didn't protect JTT from some flan backwash. Eek!

Bonus: We realized that flan makes a particularly awesome substitute for vomit on camera. Score!

Other score? One of my favorite bands, Ponytail, stopped by DetoxLand to gawk over D-Shot and ask really awesome questions like, "Wait, are the twins making out with each other?" (Um, no, that's Rebekka. She's a contestant.) "So does the winner get to date both of them?" (Um, no. They established that it wouldn't be an open relationship.) "So how many winners will there be?" (Um ... actually I don't know! How does this crazy show work, anyway?!)

Thanks for hanging out with us, Ponytail! And thank YOU for watching tonight's flantastic Detox. Clicky!

Scotty may not have won at "Suck and Blow," but we're gonna go out on a not-so-short limb and say he managed to do both on his date. Let's review the events that (not coincidentally) preceded Scott's elimination:

First, the guy shows up hungover to dinner (note: always a good decision) and manages to sleep through the Ikkis' pole-dancing routine. Then, he tells the girls he'd do ANYTHING to win -- including, say *pretend* there's a real connection even when there's totally not. And for the grand finale, dude tells Vikki her sister's "awesome," then passes out alone -- in a puddle of his own drool.

There've been rumors since the beginning about Danity's eventual demise, but the latest (totally unconfirmed) word is that Diddy's go-to girl group is getting downsized once again.

Already a trio (former members Aubrey O'Day and D. Woods recently left to do their own thang) MediaTakeout.com is now reporting that Dawn Richard's going solo, and Puff's decided to "release" the remaining two girls -- Aundrea Fimbres and Shannon Bex -- from their Bad Boy contracts.

Natch, we'll believe this one if --and when -- we see it, but all this tongue-wagging has us wondering whether Danity's days are numbered. Assuming that rumors of DK's breakup are (gulp!) actually true, you tell us: Do Aubrey, Dawn and D. Woods have what it takes to make it as solo artists?

Real World: Brooklyn airs Thursdays at 10pm, but you don’t have to wait ’til then to check out the raw footage. Every day, I’ll be sifting through the ‘Real World Dailies‘ to make sure you’re getting your fill of the BK roomies. (Tough job, I know, but somebody’s gotta do it!)

You know what we haven't seen enough of on this season's Real World? Boys getting pantsed. Fortunately, that's about to change, thanks to a mischievous Mormon named Chet. Watch as Ryan perfects his hyena laugh and Scott proves he's a tighty-whities wearing hustler. Here's to hoping the cameras aren't around for Scott's retaliation ...

• Likable late night host Jay Leno tops the list of America's Favorite TV Personalities, narrowly edging out #'s 2 and 3 (House curmudgeon Hugh Laurie and coffee table-dancer Ellen DeGeneres), and wiping the floor with Bill "Popular Contests Aren't My Thing" O'Reilly. (TV Squad)

• Spike (from last season's Top Chef, remember?) claims tonight's all-new episode will give people a chance "see who’s a bigger man — me or Fabio." Spoiler: It's Fabio! C'mon, "Ees notta Top Scallop"?! GENIUS. (TV Watch)

• Paula Abdul storms out in the middle of an American Idol audition. Possibly because she's jealous of new judge Kara DioGuardi, possibly because she's unhinged. (Usmagazine.com)

• Apparently, Bart (and actress/Scientologist Nancy Cartwright) missed the Simpsons episode where Homer joins the crazy, money-grubbing cult. (CNET)

• Hugh Hefner continues to pretend that getting dumped by his "girlfriends" was the best thing that ever happened to him. (E! Online)

We watched this week's Daddy's Girls, and we saw the parade of losers lining up for a chance to date Vanessa -- oops, "Elizabeth." And while we didn't exactly see any men who screamed "marriage material" (except maybe you, Vagabond Guy!) we're thinking 'Nessa could've at least TRIED to hide her disgust/horror/embarrassment at being there.

+ Think Vanessa was right to dismiss those dorky daters right off the bat? Or was she wrong to make up her mind about speed-dating before she'd even given it a shot? You tell us: Was Vanessa standoffish because the guys were all majorly weird? Or were the guys all majorly weird because Vanessa was so standoffish?
