Last night’s episode of Love & Hip Hop was a hodgepodge of car shopping, conversations with Chrissy’s aunt Cookie and cat fights. Chrissy still struggles with the status of her relationship with Jim, while Yandy introduces an interloper with some awesome hair-pulling skills.
Jim Jones is buying me a car at the Audi dealership looking for his first white car (he lost a bet) and mocking Chrissy’s reaction when she finds out about his new purchase. It is a beautiful car, fit for a hustler. Jim’s words, not mine. His friend promises to get the bleeped ready (after much rewinding I am going to definitively type he said he’d get the “puff puff” ready) so they can christen the car on the ride home. That gorgeous car won’t even be off the lot before it reeks of marijuana.

Chrissy and her new bob meet up with Emily and Teairra to discuss her recent powwow with Kimbella. Chrissy describes the outfit she was wearing for the head-to-head as a cute tee, jeans and heels. Please see last week’s recap for a picture of the aforementioned “cute tee.” Emily really wants to like Kimbella, but she believes she totally gives off a slutty vibe. Everything in Kimbella’s life is a product of her sluttiness according to Emily. Teairra thinks that Kimbella has no clue about the shiz she’s stirring and needs some guidance. However, she also promises to go Detroit “three-one-thrizzle” on the poor girl if she doesn’t take Teairra’s advice.
Chrissy is not happy about Jim’s new ride. She can’t believe that he would make such a big decision without consulting her. Slash, he could have spent that money on an engagement ring. Jim compares his car shopping to Chrissy’s shoe shopping. Chrissy finds that comparison absolutely ridiculous and unfounded. I find it absolutely ridiculous that she recently bought a pair of shoes for $6,000. Double You. Tee. Ach. While she’s not on board with the car, Chrissy is all about helping Jim design his outerwear line because she’s a self-proclaimed slave to fashion.
Yandy is dining with newbie Erica‘s breasts, a former model and video girl, who wants to foray into music. Erica is not a fan of Kimbella, as she feels that Kimbella is one of the girls who depreciated the video girl image. Um. Okay. Yandy is open to managing Erica’s career, but she wants to insure that Erica isn’t just another pretty face and that she has the talent necessary to make it in this business.
Olivia meets Teairra for lunch. Is she a new cast member? Olivia is concerned that Emily is falling back under Fab’s spell. Olivia is worried that the pair is smashing and Emily is giving everything away for free. While Fab’s flowers at the fashion were a nice gesture, Teairra hopes Emily won’t go back down that path. Olivia is hopeful that Teairra will talk some sense into their friend.
Jim is excited (well, as excited as he gets which always seems to be on the verge of a nap) to see the sample coats that are Chrissy’s vision. She is very impressed with herself and the final product. Chrissy wants to negotiate with Jim for a bigger piece of the pie as well as more control over the design process. Jim can’t seem to wrap his head around why Chrissy gets upset when he calls her his “partner by default.” Man, she can be so sensitive! Chrissy looks to her Aunt Cookie and Uncle Ralph for relationship advice (they are a couple whom she respects). Chrissy has done all she can do to let Jim know she wants to spend her life with him. Cookie truly believes that Jim is scared. I truly believe that Cookie is telling Chrissy what she wants to hear.
Rich approaches Yandy about his frustrations with the fact that Olivia doesn’t have a record deal. Yandy is still adamant that Olivia is too closed off with her material, but she knows Rich has put in a lot of effort and she doesn’t want to see him give up only to have someone else to reap the benefits of his hard work. Yandy’s pep talk seems to do the trick to revitalize Rich.
After her therapy session with Aunt Cookie, Chrissy is ready to turn over a new leaf with some healthy eating. She encourages Jim to seek advice from her Uncle Ralph. Jim doesn’t seem to think he is in need of any type of conversation, but if it means so much to Chrissy, he will begrudgingly do it. This should be entertaining!
Olivia’s cousin Jackie joins Olivia for some cocktails to discuss Olivia’s issues with her mother. Her cousin is very emotional that Olivia is struggling so badly with her relationship with her mom. It seems that Olivia’ mother has no idea how much she hurt her daughter, and she acts oblivious to all of the past problems that caused Olivia such pain. Olivia decides to write her mother a song to express her feelings. Somewhere, Rich is smiling for no reason.
Jim pours some sort of vodka concoction for himself and Uncle Ralph as they begin their “talk.” Jim seems to be opening up more than he expected, and Ralph sheds some light on his niece revealing that Cookie also proposed to him. Jim knows that Chrissy is the one constant in his life that will always support him. He really loves her and he’s starting to realize that perhaps the car meant engagement ring in Chrissy’s eyes.
Kimbella invites Teairra and Yandy to come spend some time at a winery. Teairra relays to Kimbella her conversation with Emily and Chrissy about the difference between being sexy and overtly sexy. Yandy brings Erica to the love fest. This should be good! Teairra is trying to get to know Erica, and when Kimbella follows suit, Erica (no way she’s just twenty-four!) says that oh yes, she knows Kimbella from Miami, but they never hung out because they were on different levels. The wonder of italics! Yandy is a bit embarrassed that she brought the hater and Teairra is confused that someone would be so intense and aggressive if there wasn’t a history between the two women.
Erica won’t even take a breath with her insult hurling, while Teairra begs Yandy to intervene. Kimbella is playing pretty coy, being the bigger person by default. Erica doesn’t even realize that while she’s talking smack about Kimbella’s baby daddy, she’s also talking smack about Yandy’s brother. Erica won’t shut up and Kimbella does the only thing left to do, she throws a drink at her. I love that my new fave Teairra goes running for the hills at this point. Who can blame her? I wouldn’t want wine on my cute outfit either. Yandy tries to break up the now brawling ladies, but they have quite tight grips on each others’ weaves. Kimbella needs to rip off Erica’s solid gold jumpsuit! It takes about five VH1 employees to undue Erica’s death grip on Kimbella’s hair.
Erica, horrified that she is bleeding, calls the police — not because she’s scared — but because she wants revenge. Yandy is beyond disgusted with Erica’s behavior, and Teairra reminds Kimbella that they had just been discussing the importance of keeping in classy. Sidebar, Kimbella’s face looks like she was in a boxing match with a litter of kittens. The ladies high tail it out of the vineyard when they hear sirens approaching.
Next week, Yandy tells Erica that she isn’t her friend and Kimbella realizes which relationships are worth salvaging. She couldn’t care less about Erica, but she hopes to continue making amends with Emily. Chrissy needs a break so she organizes a girls’ trip to Miami… a girls’ trip that is promptly crashed by Jim.
WHAT DID YOU THINK OF LAST NIGHT’S EPISODE? DO YOU THINK A JIM PROPOSAL IS COMING IN MIAMI? WHO WAS IN THE WRONG BETWEEN KIMBELLA AND ERICA?
everybody on here talking about Chrissy need a job.. Did yall not hear her tell her aunt that when Jimmy wanted to be with her she left a very comfortable life. Marriage is not just a piece of paper. Its a commitment under God. Maybe she tired of shacking up. Emily, girl get ya career together b4 u start to talk about marriage and a fairy tale with Fab. Olivia needs some major counseling.
Erica is an attention whore. That was manufatured drama, that’s why she ended up bleeding…ho sit down!
I love watching women who think they sh*t don’t stink and they got class and money act like the fools and animals they really are.
The one thing reality TV does….is highlight the bullsh** that so many human beings hide behind. Everybody is a dollar away from being the hood rats they really are. Halla!!
@51 I agree to an extent. I just don’t like when women just other women who don’t see much important in marriage. Every one has their own beliefs and shouldn’t be insulted or pre-judged because of them.
*judge
Chrissy is Jim’s main girl but I don’t see him getting married to her anytime soon. Jim clearly does not believe in committment.
The new girl Erica is either mental or trying to be the new Evelyn Lozado. In either case, she is an EPIC fail. Yandy needs to screen her new clients better.
I’m done with Emily. Fab, just like Jim, has so many options and groupies to pick from in the game, neither will commit to the women who love them. Emily and Chrissy are hardheaded and are wasting precious lifetime. Sad.
Ugh, can’t stand pot stirring Yandy! That bitch needs to shave her mustache too!!! Gross! Not a huge Kimbella fan, but Erica was soooo whack! How you gonna start a fight, then cry to the police like a punk ass little bitch. She did all that shit talking then got her eye f*cked up! Ha!
Why are some of you “bitching” about the show and obviously watch it every week? If people want to go on tv and act a damn fool, then who are we to judge? After all……it is “for entertainment purposes only”, don’t get so worked up over nothing. I enjoy the show and the “characters”.
Im sorry but dont you think Chrissy should have that horrid mole/growth removed from her face? Could that be the reason he’s not marrying her?
I give Jim credit for being cautious. Because I suspect that Chrissy chick wants to marry him so she can truly bring the hammer down on him the first second he’s caught wrong! You know it. She will sue him and take him for everything she can. She’s been putting up with his bull for a long time and she can’t say anything. But once she is his wife? She is going to be hell on wheels, drunk with “power”.
@59 I’m tryna figure out why won’t she get that mole remove. It’s hard tryna look at her without lookin at that mole.But she wears makeup on it tryna hide it…
chrissy is tired. if she wasnt fighting she could be perceived to be alot classier. jim couldnt do better than her . erica is wild, why are ppl fighting for no reason? but then again kimbella did start the fight,not erica. kimbella isnt my fave but i think those girls are jealous,shes mixed and really pretty and super sweet,they seem to just be egging her on
Chrissy needs to go away! She keeps complaining that Jim won’t marry her, but she stays with him. I can’t stand her anymore. She needs to keep it moving. @ 62, I agree with your post. Also, that Teairra chick really bugs me! lol Is she a new cast member?
I dont believe Erica is 24. I’m 24 and she looks atleast 30.
Teirra Mari is actually more successful than half the cast. She was signed to the Roc (Jay-Z’s record label). YouTube her…
You have to see this video of Erica Mena beating up her baby daddy Raul Conde. You can take the girl out the hood…..

We all know that reality show is for entertainment purposes only but sometimes you can’t help but to get up in all the bullshit that goes on. Although, it is entertainment i do believe that some things are true about the people that portray a character in these reality shows that some of it rings true. As for Jim, Chrissy and the whole marriage thing no a piece of paper does not validate a marriage but it does mean something especially in a court of law and order.I am for marriage love it but i can also do without it, only because that piece of paper can not speak the volumes of how much i love my man. We enjoy our lives just the way it is the good , bad and the ugly but mostly good times. So Jim being cautious just might benefit Chrissy in the long run or she could bite off more than she is ready to chew.
@SachelsofGold Yes, it would look like he’s settled, on TV, b/c THIS SHOW is abt his dealings w/Chrissy….. NOT what he does in the streets
@51 “A very comfortable life” aka Sponging off the last Baller… Not a job.
For all of you who hope she REALLY loves him and believe shes not in it for Fame$… she HAS a track record for ONLY courting Guys w big money fr the STREET, no matter how they were getting it. Shes got Closet & She proposed to his Fame hoping she could retire from her lifelong plot to get $$$
Oh, and as for the fight…
Leave it to a Kettle to make a Pot Look Good. Erica is abt the same as Kim, shes just a bit more long in the tooth & is just a few steps ahead in diversifying the types of work she does. She needs to drop the videogirl title, thats not a job its a past-time. But Speaking of messing up someones money and Solid Gold Jumpsuits, Word on the street is that when Erica danced in Fat Joes, “Lean Back” vid she was rumored to have skated off in “wardrobes” clothes + to the club in the Wardrobe Depts Clothes (Wardrobe which happened to be provided by Fat Joes WIFE herself) and was made to return them the next day (probably threatened) and had been accused of STEALING another models CASH that day while the girl changed her clothes. That vid of her attacking her kids father is the icing on the cake. But for me This doesnt change my views of that artist-hopping Ho-cake punching bag (even by her man) other…
“B/C I KNO”
Chrissy does not want to marry Jim Jones. Chrissy just wants to cement her lifestyle. She wants to know that she has something to fall back on. Even if its his money. She wants paperwork and all that B.S. to assure that if something goes down, she still will have the option of claiming some of this mans money……….I think it is VERY WRONG for a woman to continue to pressure a man to marry……. She should be very glad that he positions her in front and give that man time……..It is for this reason that she fears one day being cut…….What will she do….Where will she go……Back to the normal grind that we all endure? . . That is what she fears……Losing Jim and becoming a regular person……….AND SHE WILL SUE IF THINGS DO NOT GO HER WAY IN THE MARRAIGE…….THAT IS WRITTEN ALL OVER HER FACE…
Chrissy is a sick female, that is addicted to greed and control.
She is Jackie Chistie little sister. Jim Jones is Doug Christie little brother.
Chrissy and Jackie brain flips to crazy mode whenever they do not have the ability to control their men and the situations that surrounds their men.
Chrissy should stop pumping Jim for every single detail of his life. She want him to provide detail by detail as to where, when, how, who, how much, why, and why not.
She is putting global positioning system (GPS) out of business.
@71 & @72 We totally agree with your comments regarding Crazy Lady Chrissy and Sleepy Jimmy.
If Jim Jones marry this crazy and desperate female Chrissy, he is falling for a miserable and depressed life and suffering career.
Chrissy is a total control freak. She is money hungry and desperate for love.
great dialogue between jim and uncle ralph.It showed some positive stability (between cookie and ralph) jim was able to draw a parallel with his relationship.
