Ashley's thoughts on the show/winner from her post finale interview with VH1:

"Did Ashley think she deserved to win?
Probably not, but I don’t think that Risky and Marcia deserved to win, either. I kinda always knew that I wasn’t going to win. Nobody wants to see me win. They needed a nice girl like Risky to win, because that’s the only way people would have been happy with giving someone $100,000. Yeah, I have a lot of fans, but so many people would have been like, “Ashley doesn’t deserve the money because she’s such a .” I think I deserved it more than anyone because I have a kid. Brittanya deserved it too, because she has so much s*** going on, and she has a kid.

Did Risky deserve to win?
I don’t think she ever needed to be in Charm School. I like her. I think she’s a nice girl, but that’s the thing: she was always a nice girl. What changed about her? I’m not bitter. I’m glad she won because I’m certainly glad Marcia didn’t win. If she would have won, it would have been the biggest mistake ever."

Ashley says her time on Charm School sucked and she is embarrassed she took part he doesn't feel she was herself on the show.

Marcia's thoughts in her post finale interview with VH1:

What do you think about Risky winning?

If I were to lose for anybody, I was OK with losing to Risky. She’s a very sweet, genuine person, and deserved it. Hello, she needs her s! I got mine. I got some real ones, so I’m good!

Where do you stand with Ashley? You seemed to go back and forth with her.

I actually liked Ashley at the beginning. It just sucked when I was watching the show and saw her talking s*** about me behind my back. Don’t come to me and act like my friend, and then be talking s*** about me behind my back. And I was very disappointed when she called Bubbles “retarded.” That was it. I was just done. Who makes fun of Bubbles? I think Ashley and I have such strong personalities that we clash. But I do think Ashley is very real. She would say how it is, and I appreciate that.

Marcia says she enjoyed her time on the show and considers it a good experience; she is drinking again but 'with moderation'.

Risky talks racism and plans for the prize money:

Does she still think Ki Ki’s elimination was race-related?

"I feel like the situation was just about Ki Ki. I still hold my ground and say that that was the wrong decision. I was thinking it was racist, because on the show, Ricki kept physical over verbal, which is blatantly stated in the contract — you can’t be physical at all or you’re going to get sent home, regardless if you’re exempt from elimination. So everyone just jumped to the conclusions of racism, but now, looking at the show, I don’t feel like it was racist at all. I don’t feel that Ricki is racist or anything like that."

Plans for the prize money:
"There were three main things I was talking about on Charm School if I won: I was going to open my charity, I wanted to start my own clothing and belt line, and I wanted to get breasts. Yeah, well, I already actually did that. I think that’s why people are saying, “Hey, she won because she got ies.” I also helped my mom a lot, because my mom is a workaholic."

  • In my opinion, Marcia was way out of line telling Brittanya about her opinion towards her parenting skills. It took alot for Britt to hold back and end the conversation without getting physical. And then for Marcia to snitch on Britt and tell her side of the story was completly wrong, Britt should of won. I hate to see what happens at the reunion

  • I think marcia and risky should have split the money even though risky was amazing. But charm school is about changing yourself and marcia definately changed the most by telling her mother about her addiction and trying to restrain herself from alcohol. If you ask me marcia was the better representative for charm school.

  • Im glad risky won, she deserved it..Ashley will always be a loser becuz she has that "I'm better attitude" and she isn't. Poor ashley, as for Marcia, she needed to work on her codependency and she wasnt willing. I'm so happy for Risky, U go gurl, ma God bless ur plans.
