From E! Online:

Tensions are at an all time high when Ali confesses that she no longer wants to collaborate with Jeremy Greene. The Maloof brothers baby-sit Cody and Ali.

Tensions are at an all-time high zzzzzzzzzzzzzz

I do remember Cody meeting the Girls Next Door and Dina commenting that she'd never seen him so quiet.

I think Dina also had some special pampering, 'cause I remember her dragging her nasty long French nails through her stringy hair, and complaining about how old and tired she is, given all the work she has to for Ali's and Lindsay's career. (Did anyone else know that Lindsay Lohan is one of Dina's daughters? She's putting out a third album this summer.)

The editors included a specially Satanic-looking shot of Dina with her eyelids drooping, or maybe I was having a nightmare.

Among all the mind-boggling non-events that happen on this show, the one I get hung up on is little middle-aged Susie Whitebread being Ali's vocal coach on a hip hop album.

Clearly Ali's 'artistic vision' is heavily dependent on how much obsequious pandering she gets. Is Uriah Heep available to be her next producer?

Wow, Hugh Hefner looked so bored meeting Dina and Cody!

I watched this episode last night and I barely even remember anyhthing from it. Damn this show is boring!

When Ali got herself all prettied up to see Jeremy and then he turned around and showed zero interest in how she looked I laughed and laughed. Was that wrong? It sure seemed like Ali was "feeling" his song right up until the point that she realized he wasn't feeling her.

I checked out Jeremy's MySpace page, yes I am properly ashamed of myself, and his music is not too terrible.

Two minutes into this I found myself wondering why in the hell I was watching a show where a 14yr old bratted her way through 22 minutes of my tv viewing time. Oh yeah, I was killing time before Army Wives started. God I wish Lindsay appeared on this because at least then it might be interesting.

I know she was Lindsay's vocal coach too, so I'm guessing Ali knows her from her sister and probably feels comfortable with her. I casually know Susan because her sister is my sister's, sister-in-law.(you followed that right?) I've met and spoke with her quite a few times and even recently talked to her a bit at her sisters house for a 4th of July party. I jokingly asked for her autograph. I really wanted to ask her about what went on, but I don't know, I kind of felt funny about it. And really, I thought..do I really care? Um...no. I did think about asking, did she think Ali can really sing,like what was her honest opinion. I chickened out. (this was after the first Vegas episode aired) But I can tell you, they treated her very well when she was out there. She was telling us that she had her own "pool boy." My sister and I were very jealous.
And I have to say, she's a really nice person too. Just thought I'd get that out.

Wow, we are "treated" to another half hour of Ali's hideous face, generic voice, and shorts riding up the crack of her ass. She's fourteen right? Yeahhh, those shorts would've been burned had I tried to wear such a thing outside the house at fourteen. Jeremy is another bottom feeder, but he said it best when he left the studio "Good luck dealing with that shit!". Yeah, good luck, cos you're never gonna get this selfish, lazy, ignorant chit to actually work in the studio. Why do they even try anymore? Why do they also keep mentioning Dina being a Rockette? That story was bullshit.

This was my favorite episode so far. I started laughing in the beginning when the vocal coach and Jeremy were having the "She's not 14, she's 27 and knows what she wants" conversation and didn't stop until the credits were rolling. Yeah, she knows what she wants and the next day she knows she doesn't want it anymore.

Dinasaur doesn't care what Jeremy does, 'cause she has lawyers to deal with that stuff, you got that?! How can anyone be this delusional? Why do I always doubt myself, why can't I be 1% like these people?

Did anyone else notice how Ali's hair changed? She got it done a bit curly, then when she was talking to Jeremy about not wanting to do the song her hair was completely straight, then when Dinasaur came back from abusing her son, it was curly again.

I always laugh out loud when I hear someone like Ali Lohan refer to herself as an artist. Was anyone believing that Ali was really playing the piano when she was doing her "artist" spiel?

Ali's an "artist" and can't do a song she doesn't believe in. How about being a professional? Studio recording time isn't cheap, nor is all the involved people's time! She's fourteen years old and trying to break into the music industry. She should stop being a spoilt brat who's to busy shutting doors on things she won't do and start showing us what, if anything, she can do.

If she changed her mind about the song (or more likely changed her opinion about Jeremy) - just suck it up and put down the track. She can throw it out later if she decides it won't make it on her album and count it as growth experience. At her age she should be jumping (and asking "how high" first) on any opportunities like this. If she wants to be coddled, pampered and fed praise for nothing with her pablum she has no place on "reality" tv.

Dina's to blame for this. She wanted to make sure Ali wouldn't change her mind again the next day about the song but I'm sure if Ali did Dina would just backslide again and give her anything she wanted.

Cody ... so cute and sweet - "one relationship at a time, not like five". Are we certain he's really part of this family? He must have been brought in to fill out the family.
