After the hysteria that ensued following Raz-B's shocking molestation claims (and the subsequent retraction of them), I thought that spelled the end of the B2K reality show/re-launch. It appears I was mistaken ,as yet another preview for the show hit the net recently. Check it out:

All I can say is WHOAH! I'm assuming this was the drama that went down after Raz-B lifted the lid on the bogusness of Chris Stokes. J-Boog and Lil' Fizz were heated. I'm really hoping this gets picked up by a major network or, at the very least, is aired in some capacity. This is unmissable TV.

Your thoughts?

Check out the pic below of Raz-B, his brother Ricky Romance together with Chris Stokes (their alleged molester) dining in Mr Chow's in Los Angeles. Click here to view the video of the trio leaving the restaurant, where Raz proclaims "We love each other, man!"

Raz-B, Chris Stokes and Ricky Romance

A hot mess if I've ever seen one. What's going on here is any one's guess, but everyone in this whole saga is looking stupid as anything; Raz and his brother have lost any credibility or sympathy I had for them - paid off or not - and well Chris is still one shady character IMO. Yuck.

Ok, so is this some bogusness or what? Following the hysteria that ensued after former B2K member Raz-B came forward alleging his cousin, the group's former manager, Chris Stokes molested him, the claim has now been taken back. In the video below, Raz-B denies there being any truth to the allegations he made just two days ago. Check it out:

The way I see it, either he's a complete idiot or there's more to it (e.g. money, threats etc). Did you notice how he doesn't look into the camera. Whatever the case, the damage seems to have been done; his claims have verified the rumors that have been swirling around since the group were still together. It'll be interesting to see where this whole saga ends up at.

*Update*

MTV.com have just posted the following update regarding the story:

The truce between Raz and Stokes doesn’t appear to have been extended to Ricardo. After MTV reported on the apology, Ricardo told MTV News that he stands by all the original allegations and is not recanting his story. He said he hasn’t spoken to his younger brother in more than a day — which he said was unusual for the siblings and predicted that Raz will “come back around,” suggesting that the apology might not have been his brother’s idea.

Somehow, I don't think this is the last we'll hear in this saga.

Revelations, revelations, revelations. This video has been doing the rounds on the blog scene for the last few days. Former B2K member Raz-B has come forward accusing his cousin and former manager Chris Stokes of molestation. Somehow Marques Houston works into the equation too. See the shocking video below:

There's more; Raz-B's brother Ricky Romance has also accused Stokes, claiming that he forced them to take showers with other boys and molested him too. Stokes is also accused of 'unfair business and personal practices' for requesting sexual favours from them. Check out the vid below:

Chris Stokes has since issued a press release denying the claims levelled against him:

“The accusations that Demario “Raz B” Thorton and Ricardo Thorton have made are vehemently false and hold no merit. I have recently stopped financially supporting both individuals along with assisting them with their criminal and legal matters which leads me to believe they are resentful and looking to benefit financially from this. My family is my first priority and the reason why I have been so supportive of them. In bringing these false claims, they have not only slandered me, they have also put me in a position to ensure that the truth is known and I will take all legal routes to protect myself, my family and my four children," said Chris Stokes, CEO of The Ultimate Group.

"It’s also quite ironic that these statements were made only 2 weeks after they were denied admittance by a venue for an event I hosted in Beverly Hills," added Stokes.

Only those involved can know what truthfully went down; still I always knew something BOGUS was up with Chris Stokes etc.

Any thoughts?

Check out the third preview of B2K's forthcoming reality show:

Watching this back really reminded me of how badly Chris Stokes screwed them over; Omarion comes across kinda wrong too. I'm actually hoping these guys make something of themselves with this comeback - if only just show that you can't hold people down with such shady tactics.

It appears the guys formerly of B2K (sans Omarion) are serious about putting out a reality show. Check out another teaser clip of the show below, in which Omarion, former manager Chris Stokes and the 'B2K' name rights are discussed:

This actually seems like it'll be a good watch. Aside from the obvious strained relations with Omarion, it'll be interesting to see how they plan on making a comeback.

Any thoughts?

It appears yet another defunct group are jumping on the reality show bandwagon in hopes of resurrecting their careers - this time it's B2K. Before I continue, I'm literally cracking up right now at the 'realty show' spelling - very professional lol. About the trailer, it was pretty interesting to see the guys back together, as well as the hinting at there still being unresolved issues with Omarion. Saying that, this kinda screams desperation to me; none of the group, aside from Omarion, have achieved any solo success. Hmmm...

Would you be checking for a B2K reunion?
