I Love New York: cast interviews
•
1h 6m
Lee Marks, known better as "Mr. Boston" from I Love New York and I Love Money, is one of the most genuinely funny, quirky, and unexpectedly wholesome people to ever come out of the "Of Love" universe. In this episode of Talk of Love, he delivers exactly what you'd hope for.
Now living back in Boston and working full-time as an accountant, Mr. Boston sits down with Lacey for a warm, hilarious, and surprisingly candid look back at his time on two of VH1's most iconic shows — and the life he's built since.
Topics covered in this episode include:
• How Mr. Boston ended up on I Love New York
• His honest take on filming the "Of Love" shows: stressful, camera-heavy, and nothing like what he expected
• New York's cigarette breath during their makeout sessions — and his commitment to suffering through it
• The Chance beef, including that infamous boxing match where Chance broke Mr. Boston's nose
• What the producers did the night before the boxing match, to make sure Chance didn't quit the show before they could film it
• His friendship with 12 Pack, Tango, and Real — plus his thoughts on White Boy
• I Love Money season 1, and the Brandi C and Megan alliance that blindsided him
• His emotional moment on I Love Money and how 12 Pack handled it
• The show concept he pitched for his own spinoff: "Friend with Benefits of Love"
• Why he turned down I Love Money season 2
• His appearance on New York Goes to Work in 2009 — where he got to box New York herself, and get a small measure of revenge
• How New York behaved the moment cameras turned off
• Pumkin from Flavor of Love, and whether or not there was romance between the two cast mates
• His STD results on the bedroom door — the bit that ended up on The Soup
• Mr. Boston answers fan questions from the Talk of Love Instagram page followers
Mr. Boston is proof that the fish-out-of-water approach to shows like I Love New York is still just as entertaining as it always has been. In the same regard, this fun, honest, and quirky interview does not disappoint.
