For the Love of Ray J

There's some profanity-fueled verbal sparring. But women also participate in a challenge that has them fighting each other mano-a-mano in a boxing ring.

Most women rely on raw sex to attract Ray J -- from wearing skimpy clothing (like bikinis and lingerie) around the house to grinding seductively in his lap to sliding down into a split and gyrating their buttocks in his face. There's also a Web cam challenge in which the women "perform" for Ray J remotely in an attempt to impress and arouse him. On the show's official Web site, things only get worse. A bonus video titled "Meet the Ladies" has the feel of an amateur porn film, featuring three contestants who talk to an unseen cameraman about themselves in a sexually charged way. One refers to herself in the third person: "Coco Rain is just pure sexiness. Whatever you want in a woman is what Coco Rain is about. She's wild, and she's crazy. You know ... she'll just have sex in different places, other than the ordinary. Outside, you know, like in a park or somewhere I'm not supposed to be." Another is shown ironing a pink thong, and when the iron tips over, spilling water, she says, "Oh, look, my panties are getting all wet."

Words like "sex" and "sexy" are used a lot -- along with "nipple," "sloppy seconds," and "whore" -- and there's plenty of bleeped language, too (namely "s--t" and "f--k"). There are also blurred-out shots of people throwing the middle finger.

Alcohol of all sorts is readily available to everyone in the house, and one girl is shown drinking from a beer bong. Ray J also picks the ladies he'd like to keep by giving them a glass of champagne. One girl says, "Let's face it. I'm drunk right now."

Parents need to know that older teens might want to check out this hip-hop flavored reality series that takes its cues from The Flavor of Love and Rock of Love with Bret Michaels and essentially functions as a commercial for Ray J and his music. But that doesn't mean they should. Iffy messages abound, and sexual content is heavy -- especially on the show's oft-touted Web site, where extra footage that was apparently too hot for television is posted for all to see. There's also plenty of drinking and strong language, although words like "s--t" and "f--k" are bleeped.
