00:04This is a story of a little girl who always wanted to be famous.
00:09Happy birthday, Tiffany!
00:12Be quiet!
00:15I want to be a movie star.
00:17So she went on television to see what it's all about.
00:21My name is Tiffany.
00:22I am totally a princess.
00:23I'm attractive.
00:24I know it.
00:26It's obvious.
00:27I've been following your career ever since I can remember.
00:30I love your son.
00:31She ended up on a reality dating show where she thought she met the man of her dreams.
00:36This is the future Mrs. Flavor Slave.
00:39And somewhere along the way, her first dream got a little lost.
00:43Slap me, you're a .
00:45I'm wrong with who?
00:46I'm sorry.
00:47It just hit me just now.
00:48Get me the out of your face.
00:50Get the out of my face.
00:52The time is up, New York.
00:53You brought me back to opening up the same room.
00:57If you want to leave me there, leave me there.
00:59After you sit up here and say you're here for me, you're going to spit on him?
01:03Yes.
01:03I want it.
01:05I want it.
01:06Oh, my God.
01:07I love you so much.
01:10Now that I've found my man, it's time for me to get back on track.
01:14It's time for me to become a legitimate actress.
01:18So I call my friends at VH1 to help me out.
01:21They hook me up with a house in Hollywood, and the rest is up to me.
01:25Give it a shot.
01:27I got 30 days to get a park or pack up and go home.
01:31I can't do it anymore.
01:33So I'm leaving all my distractions behind.
01:36No mom, no tailor-made.
01:38I'm going to take this town by storm.
01:41Get ready, America, because New York is going to Hollywood.
01:47There's only one me in the galaxy.
01:50I am an endangered species.
01:53This kind of flower don't grow on earth.
01:55Just let me know for what it's worth.
01:57I've had a lot of relationships.
02:00I don't get flowers, not quits.
02:02I believe that the world should revive around me.
02:07I don't see the point of what it's worth.
02:09It won't be long until it starts to trip.
02:12Yes and me, the whole world should revive around me.
02:25It's morning time.
02:27I'm just waking up in my new L.A. home.
02:30I want to show the world Tiffany Pollard.
02:31I want to make it as a certified actress
02:34out here in California.
02:36But the phone is not ringing,
02:38and I'm really lonely.
02:50Hmm.
02:51Wow.
02:52Oh.
02:54Hello?
02:55Hi, I'm looking for Tiffany Pollard.
02:57Yeah.
02:58Is this Tiffany Pollard speaking?
03:00Yeah, who is this?
03:01Hi, I'm Ben Bolton.
03:03I have some exciting offers regarding new phones and accessories.
03:06Are you interested in taking a brief survey?
03:08Sounds lovely.
03:09Oh, great.
03:10Now to get started...
03:11Since Hollywood's doors are not opening for me,
03:14I realize I do need someone to help me out with this thing.
03:17So I decided to put together an ad for an assistant that I could rely on.
03:27Hello, how are you doing?
03:29Good, and yourself?
03:30Very well.
03:30My name is Elektra.
03:31Hi, Elektra.
03:32Are you here for the assistant position?
03:34Yes.
03:34I'm interviewing people today for the position of being my personal assistant.
03:39Every professional actress has an assistant, and I will be no different.
03:43You look like a girl on the go.
03:45You look like a girl that has her own agenda.
03:47Yeah, I do have a busy life.
03:48See?
03:49Oh, what are you doing here?
03:51What am I doing here?
03:52I'm willing to stop a few people.
03:54I need all of you.
03:55I will stop something.
03:56Don't use your finger when you're talking to me.
03:58Oh, I'm sorry.
03:59Don't get snarly with me.
04:00Oh, my.
04:01Now you're eye rolling and head twisting.
04:03You have to...
04:04Let me have the upper hand.
04:05Okay.
04:06Is that a problem?
04:07Absolutely.
04:11You know something?
04:12You need a therapist, not an assistant.
04:14You need to get the f*** out.
04:15I will.
04:16Therapy, that's what you need.
04:17Get the f*** off my property, you skanky-ass bitch.
04:21Elektra is way too fancy to be my assistant.
04:24Hopefully these assistants can't get any worse.
04:28Tell me a little bit about yourself.
04:30I'm a Christian.
04:30I live by my Christian values.
04:32I was hoping I can be a light to you,
04:34but in a positive way instead of a negative way.
04:37What would you suggest I do
04:40to give out this positive energy?
04:42Stop cursing so much.
04:43How can you just ignore,
04:45I think it's the Fifth Amendment?
04:48Freedom of speech.
04:49Do you belong to a church?
04:50I like Zondra,
04:51because I'm thinking she might be a good influence on me.
04:54I don't believe in premarital sex.
05:00Wow!
05:01Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
05:02Say what now?
05:03I do not believe in premarital sex.
05:06Are you serious?
05:08Yes, I'm very serious.
05:10I'll see you later.
05:12Sex is very important to me.
05:14Plus, you're wearing like a sailor shirt.
05:16Bitch, you know you don't own no boat.
05:18Sell your ass up out of my house.
05:20What do you think you can bring to the table?
05:22One of the things that you need to do
05:24in terms of career management,
05:25it's great for you to do the acting lessons.
05:27It's great for you to find the right team,
05:29and I can kind of help navigate that team.
05:31I've done that before with a few different clients,
05:34and I took them from no names to a name talent.
05:37Wow.
05:38Liza seems to have it together.
05:40She's been around the business,
05:41and I kind of like her already.
05:43One of the things that I actually brought for you
05:45is right away having to get you out to some events.
05:48There's some charity events there,
05:50there's premieres,
05:50and then there's things that are coming up.
05:52Get out!
05:53When Liza opened up her folder
05:55and I saw a list of events that she already had planned,
05:59I'm like, she's really, really on top of her game.
06:02Wow, I really like you.
06:04Liza, you have the job.
06:06Oh, my gosh.
06:07Your first task is to clean this house up.
06:19It's my first day of having an assistant.
06:22VH1 has given me a month to make it as an actress,
06:25so we need to make some progress fast.
06:28So I told Liza to come up with a plan to get me started.
06:31Good morning.
06:33Good morning.
06:33Look at you.
06:34Look at you.
06:36I'm putting a lot of faith in Liza.
06:38I hope she can deliver.
06:39I have a pretty big day planned for you.
06:42First things first, I did some research online.
06:45Right away, I feel, in order to make it in Hollywood,
06:47we need someone that is going to represent you.
06:50I looked up how to get a manager
06:53and how to get one quickly.
06:54What's the best way?
06:55Are you familiar with what a showcase is?
06:57Not really, no.
06:58Sounds like it's something that
07:01probably would be on The Price is Right.
07:02That's the first thing that came to my head.
07:04Okay, so essentially, it's a place
07:06where people can get together,
07:07like in a theater or a small space,
07:10and different bigwigs are invited.
07:11We need to find you a dramatic monologue.
07:14You'll perform it and really kind of show managers
07:17what you got, girl.
07:18Okay.
07:18And then we need to get you a tape.
07:20So I want to hire an editor so we can make you a reel
07:23so that it's like, bam, here's my resume,
07:25here's my picture, here's my reel.
07:26Let's do this.
07:27Wow, Liza seems to have her business together.
07:30But first things first, the trainer.
07:32His name is Barry, and it's Barry's boot camp.
07:34I heard about that.
07:35When are we supposed to meet Barry?
07:37Today or?
07:37Yes.
07:38I wanted a trainer today,
07:40because I realized one thing.
07:42New York's body is not ready for Hollywood.
07:44So let's go.
07:51Hi there.
07:52I knew that working with Barry would be wonderful,
07:55because he worked on Gwen Stefani's body,
07:57Fergie's body, and a lot of other actresses' bodies.
08:00Okay, now you're going to work out?
08:01Yes.
08:02Okay, it looks like you're going to go dancing.
08:04Well, no, I'm here to work out, Barry.
08:07I need to drop a couple pounds.
08:08What it is?
08:09You can drop a couple of pounds
08:10just by removing the jewelry.
08:12Go on up here.
08:13I'm not going to get hurt, right?
08:14I hope not.
08:16Basically, a normal workout for me
08:17is probably like a 45 minutes to an hour on the treadmill.
08:21I really should have worn, like, a sports bra.
08:23A sports bra, you should have worn, like, a Viking shield.
08:27Keep pumping the arms.
08:28Hands above the heart.
08:30Don't stop.
08:30I need you to keep going.
08:31Look straight ahead.
08:32Lift your chest.
08:33So from now on, we're going to show up ready.
08:35Sneakers on, not pumps, no jewelry.
08:38Wait, I'm going to do this again?
08:39Did I say 45 minutes?
08:40I meant four to five minutes.
08:43Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
08:44No, no, no.
08:44We're going to slow you down.
08:45But we're going to go higher.
08:46That's when I say we, I mean you.
08:48Are we all almost finished?
08:49No, we are not almost finished.
08:51Barry, Barry.
08:52There you go.
08:52Barry.
08:53New York, New York.
08:54Barry, please.
08:54New York, New York.
08:55Why?
08:56That's too fast.
08:58Straighten up.
08:59Straighten up.
08:59Look at your work.
09:00Okay, please.
09:01Look at your work.
09:02Stop crying.
09:02Look, open your eyes.
09:04Breathe.
09:04I want to stop.
09:05This hurts.
09:06It burned my thighs, my glutes.
09:09Everything was just, like, burning.
09:10And then, he throws my legs in the air.
09:14I just felt like I was getting ready to fart.
09:16Ooh.
09:17And my heart felt like it was going to bust open and just come out of my throat.
09:21I was just so sick of it.
09:23Go.
09:24Go.
09:24Turn the ball.
09:25Ew.
09:26Becoming an actress is a lot tougher than I thought.
09:29Oh.
09:30Yeah.
09:32All right.
09:33Yay.
09:34Barry.
09:36All right.
09:36Now that my workout is completed, I'm feeling like I can conquer the world.
09:41You doing good?
09:42Oh.
09:43I gotta do this again.
09:48Mike?
09:49Yes.
09:49Hey, how are you?
09:50I just tried calling you.
09:51I'm Liza.
09:51Come in, please.
09:52The editor that Liza hired to help me make my reel just arrived.
09:57He's going to take my best moments and make me look good.
10:01I just wanted to introduce you real quick.
10:02Hi.
10:03Hello.
10:03Hi.
10:04This is Tiffany.
10:05Tiffany, this is Mike.
10:06He'll be here, Mike.
10:06Hi, nice to meet you.
10:07Nice to meet you, too.
10:08He's not much to look at, but I just hope he knows what he's doing.
10:12So we can work on your side.
10:13Do you want to do that out here?
10:16Did you read through it already?
10:18I did.
10:18I did read through it.
10:20I don't memorize it, but I'm getting the feel.
10:22For Thelma.
10:24You notice she's a maid.
10:25I think she might be black.
10:27To be honest, I kind of think she might be British.
10:29Are you serious?
10:31Yeah.
10:32Because look, look, read the first line.
10:33I beg your pardon, sir.
10:35Is it like, good time, Mike?
10:36No, that's Australian.
10:38Is it like, top of the morning, tell you, sir?
10:40That's a little Irish.
10:42Are you sure she's not black?
10:44When I hear the name Thelma, I thought of Thelma from good times.
10:47So that's how I'm going to portray it.
10:49Thelma is absolutely black.
10:52I'm ready when you guys are.
10:53Oh, fabulous.
10:54All my best moments have to be in this reel.
10:56It's very important for this reel to speak for me.
10:59Because the showcase is tomorrow.
11:01The managers are going to be there.
11:03They're going to see it.
11:04And they want to know what can this person deliver.
11:07Is this ready?
11:07Yep.
11:08Go ahead.
11:08Awesome.
11:09The biggest star on reality TV right now.
11:12Oh, he did put it first.
11:13I'm talking about Miss New York herself.
11:16Don't play with me.
11:17I ain't nothing to be playing with.
11:19It looks pretty good.
11:20I'm really impressed right now.
11:22And I look sensational.
11:23You'll add the music tonight?
11:25Yeah, I can just take it back to my place.
11:27You don't have to watch me do that.
11:28It's pretty boring.
11:29And then you would email that to me or we get it delivered tomorrow on a CD?
11:33Uh, I think I'll bring it to you guys myself tomorrow on a CD.
11:36Okay.
11:37You should have it no later than like 1230, right?
11:39Cool.
11:40The editor is going to do a lot more work on the reel at his house.
11:43So we trust him to take it home and do what he has to do.
11:46Now it's time for me to really, really go over my life.
11:49And just chill out and get ready for tomorrow.
11:55You know what, Mrs. Paul?
11:56I mean, I'm so excited about this show case.
12:00I got these sides that I got to go over while Liza's handling the editor.
12:04Plus, that's a real big dog.
12:06And I saw what he can do on that lawn this morning.
12:09So do you have great news for me?
12:10Are we all done?
12:12Um, yeah, about that.
12:15Plus, that was really rough.
12:16Computer crashed like three times.
12:18Okay, but we're done.
12:19Remember I told you?
12:20You promised we were going to have it all done.
12:22Really close.
12:23Give me like a half hour, 45 max.
12:26Just got to put a couple touches on and help with the thing.
12:28But it's good to go.
12:29So you think by like 1230, no later?
12:32Yeah, yeah, that looks good.
12:36This is Mike.
12:37Leave a message.
12:38Oh, hell no.
12:39He better answer the phone.
12:41Mike, this is Liza calling.
12:44We just spoke about half an hour ago,
12:45and you said you'd be on your way over.
12:47You knew I was calling at 1230.
12:48It's 1232.
12:51So where are you?
12:54Hello?
12:55Uh, hey, is this Liza?
12:56Yeah, is this Mike?
12:58Yeah, hey.
12:59God, it's crazy.
13:00The water went out in my apartment.
13:02I've been trying to figure out how the hell I'm going to take a shower.
13:04Okay, well, don't take a shower.
13:05Where is your apartment exactly?
13:07Can you give me the address, please?
13:08I'm not there, though.
13:09I'm over at a place because I had to go shower.
13:11Where are you?
13:12I would like to come meet you.
13:13I'll see you at Acme.
13:14Okay, I need you not to hang up.
13:15Let me tell you something.
13:16Hi, Mike.
13:17Remember me?
13:19Hello?
13:20The clock is ticking.
13:22I'm so pissed off that now I have one more thing to be worried about.
13:26I should just be focusing on my monologue.
13:29You should never put me in that business of that fat, nasty, greasy bitch not having my reel.
13:35Just give me a minute.
13:36Okay.
13:36Just give me a second.
13:37Sorry.
13:37I'm going to get my lines together.
13:39Oh, my goodness.
13:45Hi.
13:46Welcome to the famous Acme Comedy Theater in Hollywood.
13:48How are you?
13:49This is really huge.
13:51The most important thing right now is my showcase.
13:54So this is considered one of the best spaces in Los Angeles.
13:57Oh, this is amazing.
13:59I need people to respect that I can be a serious actress.
14:03My whole future is riding on me doing well.
14:06So go over the scripts and then I'll come back and check in a bit.
14:09All right.
14:09All right.
14:11Oh, man.
14:15I'm bursting on the inside.
14:17I'm so freaked out that the editor is not going to deliver this reel in time.
14:21But I'm not going to let him ruin my chances and throw me off my game.
14:24You know what, Mr. Roberts?
14:26The only reason?
14:27I need a full-length mirror.
14:29I can't even see my face.
14:30Oh, my goodness.
14:37You know what, Mr. Roberts?
14:39The only reason?
14:41I need a full-length mirror.
14:42I can't even see my face.
14:43I get to the theater and I know that the managers are supposed to be here any minute.
14:48I am so freaked out that this editor is not going to deliver the reel in time for my showcase.
14:54Oh, my goodness.
14:55I'm so pissed off right now.
14:58Catching that bus looks like...
15:00Catching that bus is like...
15:02If you guys want to take a seat, that would be great.
15:05Catching that bus is like...
15:13It's showtime, princess.
15:14For real?
15:15The editor has not brought in the reel yet.
15:18And now I'm just going to be real-less.
15:22You mean home?
15:23I'm sitting there, two minutes to showtime.
15:25And who shows up at my dressing room?
15:27That fat, nasty, greasy bastard.
15:29Got your reel.
15:31Hope you like it.
15:32Okay, I hope so, too.
15:35Break a leg.
15:37How about I break your leg?
15:38I'm so pissed off with the editor, but I'm not going to let him ruin my chances and throw
15:43me off my game.
15:44Is this really it?
15:45This is really it, girl.
15:48If I forget something, what the f*** is this?
15:50If you forget something, take a minute and just pick up where you remember.
15:53I feel like I could step out there and go blank and not remember anything that I was
15:58supposed to do at all.
16:00I now present Tiffany, aka New York Pollard.
16:05It was January of 2006 when America first met a young girl from Utica named Tiffany.
16:14Slap me, bitch!
16:16Little did anyone know that she would become reality television's brightest rising star.
16:21But the world of reality TV was too small to hold a star like New York, and soon enough,
16:27Tiffany Pollard was everywhere.
16:29If you want this show to go, you are going to have to create conflict.
16:34All you need to do is sit there and worry about getting your hair burnt down.
16:37What you need to do is stand up there and burn a job out.
16:40That's what you need to do.
16:42What does the future hold for Tiffany Pollard?
16:45Only you can say.
16:48Tiffany Pollard, America's princess.
16:58I beg your pardon, sir?
17:01Oh, I wish I could help, but I got a 630 bus to catch, and if I miss it, I'm
17:07gonna be home
17:07till midnight, and I gotta be home way earlier than that, because I got a second job I gotta
17:12be ready for in the morning.
17:13And plus, that's a real big dog.
17:16I saw what he did out there on the lawn earlier today.
17:19That dog dropped some bricks.
17:21Ooh!
17:23Say what?
17:25I'm fired.
17:27Now I see that you don't give a damn about me.
17:30All you wanted me to do was pick up dog s*** at 630 in the afternoon when I'm supposed
17:35to be catching my bus back home.
17:37But you know what?
17:39Compared to cleaning up after that big-ass beast of yours out there in the lawn, catching
17:43that bus looks like catching a stretch limo to me right about now.
17:52Hmm.
18:00Even though I might not be the best actress yet, I think I nailed it.
18:05I'm looking really good, and these managers better recognize.
18:08You did so good!
18:18I guess the showcase went okay, despite all the distractions.
18:23I just hope these managers like what they saw.
18:25How'd you feel?
18:26Um, all right.
18:28I just, I'm used to having a script longer.
18:30Are you gonna bail?
18:31Right.
18:34Remember, they don't know the script.
18:36You played it off well.
18:37Is Tiffany coming out?
18:39Does anyone know?
18:40I'd love to say hello before I take off.
18:42I gotta make a love to the script.
18:44I just barely French kissed that s***.
18:48I better pop a breath in it, because I know I smell like liquor.
18:52Are we leaving?
18:53Where is she?
18:58Where's everybody at?
19:00I can't believe these SOBs skipped out on me.
19:04It looks like the showcase was a flop.
19:07I think they need to get ready for another production.
19:09I need a manager to help me guide my career.
19:11But who's gonna guide me to find a manager?
19:14Becoming an actress, it's a lot more work than I thought.
19:18I'm not gonna let this get me down.
19:20I wanna go home right s*** now.
19:22Okay, Tiffany.
19:23This season, New York is going to Hollywood.
19:26I'm totally on my way.
19:28I know I need an acting coach.
19:30I need managers, agents.
19:32Is that all you got?
19:33Find it in here.
19:34Where's the realness?
19:35I know that I have a lot of work to do.
19:37Is it normal for my crotch to be hurt?
19:39Oh, sure.
19:39I'm gonna do it all.
19:40This is Miss New Yorker right now.
19:42The sky is the limit.
19:43I'm here for the lead role.
19:45I'm gonna take this town by storm.
19:48Storm!
19:48Ow!
19:51So, get ready, America.
19:52There's gonna be a lot of fun.
19:54Please don't let me go.
19:55Ah!
19:57Drama.
19:58To be able to look at you, that's why.
19:59To be able to look at me, what's your problem?
20:01Don't ever insult my partner.
20:03You do not love me.
20:05Can you do me a favor and just let us work?
20:06I know how to bring something out of her.
20:08Are you a producer?
20:09Let's get out of here.
20:10If I'm really gonna make it in Hollywood...
20:12Don't ever touch the casting director.
20:14Raw talent isn't enough.
20:16Ah!
20:16I don't know if this is your part.
20:18I want this so bad.
20:20So, even though I might not be the best actress,
20:22I know one thing I'm good at.
20:24I know how to get what I want.
20:26And I want to be huge.
20:28Ladies and gentlemen, New York!
20:30What's next for Tiffany Pollard is definitely movie starting.
20:34Shall we walk into my future?
20:36And I'm ready for my close-up.
20:38Action!
20:40Hey, it's the one and only New York.
20:44You better check me out on newyork.vh1.com,
20:47where you'll find highlights of this show
20:49and get a sneak peek of what's coming for next week.
20:58So, Tiffany, do you want to take a seat?
21:00And then he's going to show you what he has so far.
21:02And then I will bring you a little bit more.
21:05And Tiffany, do you want anything to drink?
21:07No, I'm good.
21:23Nice place.
