ByStarcasm Staff

I’ve never personally had many problems with ordering items from Amazon, and I do it ALL the time, but I’ve never tried to order a TV from them like Seth Horvitz did.

VIDEOS PHOTOS Love & Hip Hop Atlanta’s Karlie Redd on Scream Queens

ByDarren O

Before Karlie Redd hit ratings gold with VH1’s Love & Hip Hop Atlanta she was keeping it reality real on another VH1 show called Scream Queens. Miss Redd was cast for the second season of the show featuring buxom young ladies competing to land a “role” in Saw 3D. While Karlie only made it to the end of the 3rd episode she left in her wake some seriously righteous reality moments I want to share with you. During her entire run KR was determined to win but her determination ended up being her downfall as she “got the ax” because she tried too dang hard. But before that happened she managed to play a witch, eat raw steak meat and have herself covered in a bucket full of maggots. So who wants to see our girl gnaw down some uncooked steak and get a maggoty shower? Of course you do!

It quickly made the rounds but now we have our first official look at Daniel as the 16th President courtesy of Entertainment Weekly.
