Ish revealed secrets about this show to my friend


He said:

- that he doesnt really talk like he do on PMR. The only reason he talks with that Ese-accent is because the producers behind the show wanted him to talk like that

- Xzibit doesnt do anything. He doesn't pay for the "pimping" of the car. And he doesnt drive the car to West Coast Customs. They only record him driving away from the person's house, and when he's at West Coast Customs. And it's MTV picking the person that's gonna get his/her car pimped, not him

- Toyota pays for the pimpin and sponsors the show.

- It takes 2 weeks for them to pimp the car. The person gets a rented car while they're pimpin the car.

Only part I did not know was about Ish's accent and Toyota being the only sponsor. I mean if the car was NOT a Toyota vehicle, seems pretty weired they would have paid for it?? But ok. Now about Xzibit not driving more than he did, I think I came to that conclusion somewhere in here. I just could not imagine him IN those vehicles as nasty as they looked/smelled/rode. Thank you while we watch repeats.

A&E's new 'Parking Wars' show is the funniest show EVER!!

Toyota cant be the only sponser, I figured that whoever provided the parts paid for their product to be mentioned on the show like when they say they are putting an "MTX!!! jackhammer" in the car. Thats why they make it a point to mention all the brand names of all the products, they wouldnt do that if Toyota paid for everything.

Xibit doesn't pay for the pimping? Haha, of course he doesn't he's the presenter of the show. Also, did you expect him to hang around with the gang while they do the car up? Seriously, you have a very warped idea of how TV is made. Of course they're only going to have Xibit around for the parts which he's actually in.

You'd be surprised at just how many people are not clued in at all. How many people go to the forum and/or his myspace seriously requesting HIM to pimp there rides complete with sad story and all. And then, you have to either laugh at what his response is to those who personally come up to him with the request and then again, feel kinda sorry for him because that's what he's most notable for - now days, it seems.
