After last week's non-elimination, everyone on 50 Cent: The Money and the Power is beginning to feel the pressure. And while some are ready to step up their game, others are too caught up in the drama (i.e. Musso vs. Ryan, Part II, Larry vs. Everyone) to stay focused. Check out these scenes from this week's episode and find out who's cool under pressure -- and who's about ready to self-destruct.
Fiddy’s new reality show, 50 Cent: The Money and the Power, 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 ‘50 Cent Dailies‘ to make sure you’re getting your fill of the rapper-turned-mogul. (Tough job, I know, but somebody’s gotta do it!)
Slate.com's founding editor Michael Kinsley once described former VP Al Gore as "an old person's idea of a young person." And perhaps that poignant observation is exactly what Musso had in mind when he ripped on Ryan's attire by saying "You dress like a preppy white boy dressed like a black man."
Regardless of Musso's intentions, however (or his possible affinity for political news writing), his unsolicited fashion advice seems to have succeeded only in earning him a new enemy in the house. So check out this 50 Cent Daily, and tune in tonight (Yes, after Turkey Day) for an all-new episode of The Money and the Power.
(Hey, guess that must be an MTV programming exec's idea of an MTV viewer's idea of a dream Thanksgiving!)

Apparently, Ryan's none too fond of Cornbreadd's self-promotional t-shirt fetish. So while Musso and Jenn continue to go at it (Jeez, guys, get a room!) Ry lightens the the tension by calling out Cornbreadd's wacked-out gear. The way we see it? Ryan raises a fair point. Even if his idea of the perfect shirt does involve showing off his bare chest...

Rival roomies Jenn and Musso are back to their old infighting ways again. And this time, not even Ryan and Cornbreadd can stop the madness (or muzzle Musso before he calls Jenn a "phony, pampered b-tch.") Check out their latest domestic dispute, and then re-watch their last battle royale one more time.

Now that the roomies have gotten to know each other a little better, they've learned how to push each other's buttons. And it looks as though Jenn's had just about enough of Musso's creepy come-ons -- or, as she puts it, "the winking, and the gross comments and the touching and the nasty sh--." Sound icky? It totally is! And just wait till you hear Musso's smug response (Hint: it involves the proud non-denial "I'm good at what I do.")
So check out this vid to watch Jenn call Musso a "disgusting" pig (how very Jessi Spanow-esque!) and stay tuned to hear Ryan's expert take on the subject...after the jump.

You know how Rebecca comes across as the loopy, New Age-y broad of the 50 Cent brood? Well, apparently, Cornbreadd and the rest of 'Becca's roomies are trying to connect with her by finding out her taste in music. Unfortunately, it seems like quirky ol' Rebecca's more concerned with being honest than she is with fitting in.
Which is why instead of telling the group what they want to hear (e.g. "Gangsta rap," "50 Cent" "[A band people have actually heard of]") she replies by saying her fave musical genre is...the classical Indian sitar. Why? Because it's "the foundation of sound," of course!
Yeah, from the looks of it, she lost Ryan at "sitar."

If you want to ride with 50 Cent, you gotta prove to him you know how to handle his business. Which is why Fiddy and his underboss, Tony Yayo, are hitting the wanna-be entrepreneurs with a new lesson every week. Check out our recap of this week's lesson plan to find out which of these half-assed apprentices made the grade -- and which ones just got schooled.
How To Get All Up In Fiddy's Biznass, Ch. 1: "Choose your crew wisely [and] lead the team you've chosen to victory."
Fiddy might've wanted the guys and gals to focus on picking the right crews, but he could've just as easily called this week's lesson plan "Choose your friends -- and your enemies -- wisely." Cause in this game, if they're not with you, they're against you. And if you choose the wrong crew, you could get stuck with the kinda peeps who throws old ladies to the curb (Big ups, DaJuan!) or worse, one who hates on Asian people and "look[s] like a poor man's Lil' Kim," (You go, Precious).

From the looks of things tonight, The Islanders are becoming a little irritated by Dunbar's ever increasing ego. And according to Paula & Ryan, we haven't seen the half of it.
Sure, we'll admit dude's got a hot bod, but what's all the fuss? Isn't this the same guy from Real World: Sydney who had anger management probs and cheated on the love of his life with a practical stranger? Below, Dunbar's fellow castmates try and make sense of his self adoration:
+ So what do you think? Is Dunbar all he's cracked himself up to be, or is he just another hotheaded Rookie who needs to get served?

Remember way back to Real World: Denver when our biggest Colie concern was whether she could keep count of her sexual partners? Well, there's been no more ho-show for Colie on The Island, that's for sure. 'New Colie' is a faithful girlfriend, frequent suntanner/rester and the bestest buddy a girl like Johanna could have.
Here's the thing: Paula & Ryan like 'Old Colie' better! Allow them to explain:

Real World/Road Rules Challenges are like potato chips — once you start, you can’t get enough. Which is why I’ll be sifting through the ‘Challenge Dailies‘ each afternoon to make sure you’re getting your fill of the crazy castaways. (Tough job, I know, but somebody’s gotta do it!)
Lately, we've been hearing a lot of talk about how Dunbar's the only one out there who didn't earn his key. (Abram handed it off to him before leaving the Island, remember?) And now that all 8 keys are in play, Paula's thinking it might be time for D-Bar to volunteer himself for the next faceoff and defend the Abram-sponsored key.
Not surprisingly, Dunbar doesn't really want to hear it. And apparently, neither do you guys. After watching Paula tear into Dunbar (clip to follow, after the jump), several of you argued she had no business criticizing the protein-deprived strongman on any key-related business.
