Have a great summer!

Hi there,

I'm trying to track down pictures from the first season where the
contestants are answering questions and most of them have the
headphones on. If anyone has any pics like this can you please upload
them here, or let me know where I can find them.

thanks a stack!

So tell us what future T.V. work you'll be doing, Natalie?

So we can try to catch you on the tube.

Thankyou! I realized that Jennifer was on Chains
the morning we filmed Eliminidate! We had never met
before. She is very sweet. I was pretty suprised that she
was on the same cast for this one as well. Ron and I
never went out, but we all had a fun day together doing
the show.

Natalie, nice job winning "Elimidate". I saw that
tonight.<br><br>So how did things turn out with you and Ron? Are you
and him still going out?<br><br>By the way, did you
know that Jennifer chick (the "Jennifer" who you said
had smaller boobs than yours) was also on "Chains of
Love" in an earlier episode than your appearance on
there? She was a "picker" though and got to choose from
4 guys.

Yeah I'm going to miss the show too. I wish
another network would pick it up. U.P.N. should have kept
it. It's not like their other shows all have that
high ratings. <br><br>I read somewhere that the show
is still going on in other countries though. Like
they're taping one for Australia right now.

Thanks for response, Natalie.  :-)<br><br>By the way, Natalie I was reading you
bio on the "Chains Of Love" website, are you still a "Miller Girl"?  Does it pay
a lot and what exactly do you do?

Hey,<br>     It's Natalie.  That was Jeannie.  She does also wrestle sometimes
too!  Talk to you later.

Anybody here watch that game show, "Sex Wars"? I
was flipping through the channels last night and I
think I saw Jeannie, from the very last episode of
"Chains of Love" but I'm not sure. It was a girl named
Jeannie and it looked just like her but she said she was
professional wrestler from W.O.W. (Women of Wrestling). But I
just went to the "Chains Of Love" website
(<a href=http://www.upn.com/shows/chains/
target=new>http://www.upn.com/shows/chains/</a>) and it said there under
Jeannie's occupation,
that she's a model. Anybody here see that last night
and was that really Jeannie?<br><br>Natalie, if
you're still around, did Jeannie mention to you that
she's a professional wrestler during the time that she
was chained to you?

Hi it's Natalie.  John and I don't talk too often anymore, but every once in a
while.  Thanks for watching the show!!

Well that's good to hear.  <br><br>Good for Natalie, that she didn't have sex
with him.  Do they still keep in touch?

natalie was not affected by Jon at all she was in it for the fun and he called
her two hours later and never did they have sex just foreplay

So no chance it will come back?  :-(<br><br>It's not like U.P.N. has any high
rated shows at all.  Chains of Love's low ratings are typical for a U.P.N. show
so they should bring it back.

I don't know if you're really friends with
Natalie or not but I have to say and I hate to say this
but she got really used by John. I thought John was a
nice guy but at the end he really turned out to be a
jerk. Natalie even went topless with him in the pool.
<br><br>When I read the little epilogue at the end that said,
"John apologized a few days later for cutting her
loose. Then they fooled around. Then John cut her loose
again", I took that to mean that John and Natalie had sex
and then John left her again. Poor, Natalie. I guess
you have to give John credit though. He did have his
cake (with him taking home most of the money) and he
ate it too. <br><br>Natalie was the best looking one.
She was so gorgeous. Great body, pretty face.
Beautiful long blonde hair. Outgoing
personality.<br><br>I'd love for her to bend over in her bikini and me
spank her too like Kim and John did. That rocked. Tell
Natalie, I just love her!

I HAVE ENJOYED THIS SHOW THE LAST ONE WAS GREAT I THINK JEANNIE AND NATALIE ARE
CANADATES FOR PLAYBOY.

was slim on blind date too?  would they really give me his last name?

Oh good luck to her. I hope she wins. I just saw
and read her profile. She looks like the best looking
one of the 4 girls for the episode
tomorrow.<br><br>And I have to agree, I think they have saved the best
for the last, at least as far looks are concerned
because these 4 girls coming up look better than any of
the other contestants in the previous episodes.

Slim was on "Blind Date"?  I didn't know that.  <br><br>I know that Tomas guy
from the show from 2 Tuesdays ago was on "Blind Date" because I recognized him
but I didn't know Slim was also.

Hehe, I liked Slim too. What did you guys think
of him? <br><br>He annoyed all of his other
chainmates and probably most of the T.V. audience, but I
didn't mind him too much. <br><br>I wish he had dunked
Kristian's head in water too after Kristian pretty much
questioned his masculinity.

Call "Blind Date," in Los Angeles.  They should give you his name.

Does anyone know how to get the last name of a contestant?  I'm looking for the
name of the guy nicknamed "slim" on this last week's show!  Help?   Please?   =)

i agree with you

<EOM>

I love this show.My best friend Natalie is on the next one I think they saved
the best for last

I HAVE SEEN ALL 4 SHOWS I REALLY LIKED THE FIRST 3 SHOWS. CHAINS OF LOVE IS
DIFFERENT, I LIKE IT. I ALSO LIKED CHANGE OF HEART.

Hmmm...I haven't seen that pic before. If I come
across it I'll be sure to get it up here but I don't
know where I'd find it. Could you perhaps ask the
newspaper in which you saw the pic to send you a copy or
refer you to who can? I hope you find it.<br><br>As
well...the woman on the far right of the pic looks familiar.
She looks a lot like an actress whose name escapes me
at the moment...what do you think? (Photos --
default album --photo #3)<br><br>Don't forget to catch an
all new episode Tuesdays at 9/8c on UPN and in Canada
Saturdays at 10/9c on Global.<br><br>Jason R.
Nason<br><a href=http://www.upn11.cjb.net
target=new>http://www.upn11.cjb.net</a><br>"Life is Paramount"

Well, to let you know the pic I'm talking about,
I just uploaded a scan of it from a newspaper. It
looks terrible, sorry. That's why I'm looking for a
scan directly from a glossy or similar. The guy is cut
out of the middle if the pic, for personal reasons.
;)<br><br>So, what do you think? Any chance you could post a
better quality version? Thanks.

I'm not sure that I've seen the picture that
you're referring to. I checked out both the official
website and several other website with pictures from the
series without success. If I come accross anything I'll
be sure to let you know.<br><br>Don't forget to
watch Chains of Love at its new time this Tuesday at
9/8c on UPN.

I have put together a board for fans of Chains of Love. Check it out here: <a

Thanks for posting that pic -- I've got a
request! Do you have the publicity pic of the folks from
the first show -- the girls with the guy -- where
they are sitting down and all have their bare feet in
the camera? I am totally into feet, and I was totally
into those girls, so I would kill for that pic! I just
saw it as a terribly grainy small pic is a newspaper.
Thanks in advance for any help!<br><br>FP
