What can I say about I Love Money 2’s Heat? He has been a contender in I Love New York, I Love Money and now in the secnd season of the show.

Poor guy, he has not won one of the competitions yet. But he has brought his own personality and those amazing good looks to all three seasons. He also brought his over the top emotions at times. He recently answered some questions about his time on the shows. Here’s an excerpt:

Your exit was extremely dramatic.

Yes. You know, I never cry like that. I only cry when I’m happy. I was disappointed that I was leaving the show, but the crying mostly came from the fact that I was leaving really genuine people who I made good friendships with. The Entertainer is the one who took me out the first time, but coming back into it and being able to establish a friendship with him was pretty awesome. I feel like alcohol also helped a bit, too. I was shocked that they didn’t show the whole scene. I went from being sad and emotional for two minutes to being happy and positive.

You didn’t hold it against the Entertainer for eliminating you again. Why weren’t you angrier about that?

In the first episode, I told him: “I’m not a vindictive person.” I’ve seen so many bad things in my life coming from people who are vindictive or holding grudges. At the end of the day, the Entertainer doesn’t pay my bills. He was the one who had to ultimately say, “You’ve got to go home,” but he did ask the whole team. They made their decision, and I can’t be mad because they made the right decision. They kept an injured player, 20 Pack. If you kept me around, who knows what would have happened. Two hands are stronger than one.

Which was more difficult: I Love Money or I Love Money 2?

I Love Money 2. You got this snake, he’s quiet the whole time and he doesn’t want to look you in the eyes. When I’d talk to Tailor Made one-on-one, he’d tell me about his life, his experience with I Love New York 2. I felt like, maybe this guy’s all right. It turned out that he was pulling things left and right and hiding stuff.

Which was a better time?

2, without a doubt. When I first saw the cast, I didn’t know what to think. We had bigger, stronger people during the second season: Buddha, T-Weed, even though he’s a yapper, Onix, an ex-pro boxer. Athletically, there was a lot more competition. I trained harder for this season, too. But when I was captain, my strategy was all in the mind.
