Rock of Love Charm School - Episode 5
Find Out Who Got Eliminated and Sent Home from Charm School
Nov 10, 2008
In the previous episode of Charm School was all about Charm School Commandment three: "Thou Shalt Take Care of Business."
The Charm School cast members took part in a challenge to manage a band, following a lesson from famed rock and roll management mogul Miles Copeland and it was Destiny, Brandi M., Dallas, Kristy Joe and Jessica's team that came out on top.
In episode four of VH1's reality show Rock of Love Charm School, mischievous Megan Hauserman got sent home from Charm School, following a fight with Brandi M. Sharon decides to send Megan home because, "Megan just shows no remorse for her actions at all. She's just emotionless. She just doesn't get it at all. And ultimately, there's nothing I can teach her."
A Summary of Episode Five of VH1's Rock of Love Charm School
The fifth episode of Charm School begins with the commandment, "Thou Shalt Not Rock Rude."
The Charm School girls get a lesson on etiquette, and they get to put their new skills to use when a British duchess - Royal Highness, Duchess of Birmingshire, Page Irvingcrow Harrington - comes to visit the Charm School cast.
The Charm School cast is divided up into three teams: Inna, Lacey and Brandi C.; Brandi M., Jessica and Kristy Jo; and Destiney, Dallas and Heather. The girls then learn that they will be hosting the Duchess of Birmingshire for dinner - the perfect chance to try out their new manners.
The Charm School girls are then briefed by the Duchess of Birmingshire's Chief of Staff, who gives the girls the following directions:
- When meeting the Duchess for the first time, curtsey and bow your head
- Always mind proper table manners.
- Eat and drink at the pace of the Duchess
- Never turn your back on the Duchess - it's a sign of disrespect
- Address the Duchess by her entire name - Your Royal Highness, Duchess of Birmingshire, Page Irvingcrow Harrington
- The duchess must never be exposed to another woman's decolletage
- No matter what, don't give the Duchess any alcohol
To make the challenge more interesting, Charm School Headmistress Sharon Osbourne watches the entire evening's events on a television in another room, likening it to "one of those really bad car crashes on the highway."
And Sharon is right - the girls (Brandi M. and Inna in particular) can't manage to say the Duchess of Birmingshire's full name properly; Heather spills tea on the table while serving the Duchess; and Inna gets sent to change her clothing when she wears a decolletage-revealing dress, despite the fact that all the other girls are dressed conservatively, "exposing nothing other than elbows," as Sharon observes.
The Charm School Elimination Ceremony
Once Dallas, Destiney and Heather are declared as the winners, the other two teams are told to pick one person to be considered for elimination. With Inna's dressing faux pas fresh in the girls' memory, Inna volunteers to go down to the carpet to face possible elimination.
But Jessica, Kristy Jo and Brandi M. have a more difficult time deciding who to send pick for possible elimination. Brandi M. is the obvious choice for elimination, and she initially agrees to be considered for elimination, but then reconsiders when she realizes that last week's antics have made her a likely choice to be sent home.
Instead, Jessica is conned into volunteering for possible expulsion by Kristy Jo and Brandi M., who even have Jessica convinced that volunteering is the best way to show that she's getting a backbone. Unfortunately, Sharon Osbourne sees through the rouse and Jessica is told by the expulsion panel that she's a long way from growing a backbone, since she allowed the other girls to manipulate her.
Brandi M. is selected by Sharon to be the third candidate for expulsion, but she's ultimately let off the hook, as is a tearful Jessica. Inna isn't so lucky. Inna is sent home by Sharon after making her second significant dressing mistake at Charm School.
At the expulsion ceremony, the Charm School cast also learns that the Duchess of Birmingshire is actually an actress - a fact that was probably very obvious to most viewers, as the Duchess seems to "test" the Charm School cast at every opportunity.
On a sad note, episode five of VH1's Rock of Love Charm School ends with a dedication to actress Patricia Place - better known to Charm School fans as the Duchess of Birmingshire. Place died of pneumonia on September 20, 2008, at the age of 83.
