In the latest episode of Push Girls “Tiphany’s Missing Sister (Part 1),” our favorite out cast member is trying to track down her sister. Tiphany’s sister Katie has been addicted to crystal meth for over 10 years. A year and a half ago, Katie went missing and Tiphany desperately wants to hire a private investigator to find Katie. Sadly Tiphany she isn’t getting the support she wants from her father. It seems as though after a long struggle, many family members have given up on Katie and are choosing not to get their hopes up that she will ever get sober.
Meanwhile, Mia and her friend Pauline head to a salon for a day of mani-pedis. It’s Mia’s first professional pedicure. In the past she was too afraid her legs would spasm and freak the nail stylist out, but Pauline reassures...

On the latest episode of Push Girls, appropriately titled “Betrayed," Angela is in need of a new caregiver while Chelsie and Auti have some serious dramarama over their dance crews. (I wanna join their dance crews!)
First up the lovely Angela heads to the tattoo parlor Freak Chic. Angela gets a small flower tattoo on her wrist that she says symbolizes her “past, present and future.” The future is what Angela is focusing on since she is now officially divorced and is currently looking for a new caregiver so her Auntie Judy can return to work. Angela reveals that after her accident she lost a lot of friends but her Auntie has always been by her side. Angela calls her Auntie her “soul partner” and her “partner in crime.” Although I doubt these two sweethearts commit crimes. After many candidates Angela finally hires a woman...

Congratulations to the cast of Push Girls for taking home last night's Critics Choice Award for best reality series!

Now on with the show! In last night’s Push Girls episode “Surprising News” Angela gets behind the wheel, Chelsie is desperate to walk and Tiphany and Liz play kissy face in the sand.
The show begins with Auti and Angela contorting themselves to get inside of a car. They laugh that it takes them 45 minutes just to head off to lunch.
Then we head over to Chelsie’s and her boyfriend Raymond, who makes this ignorant statement, “You don’t really see gorgeous people in wheelchairs.” What?!
Chelsie is determined to walk again. She practices standing one hour a day to gain strength. Raymond makes a tremendous discovery of the revolutionary ReWalk bionic suit. Here’s a video showing how the suit works.

This season’s first episode starts off with our blonde bisexual Tiphany riding a mechanical bull.
Tiphany is celebrating her decision to finally move out of Angela’s house and live on her own. Angela is supportive of Tiphany’s relocation (i.e. she will not miss hearing Tiphany having loud sex). But Mia is concerned that Tiphany might not be ready for total independence.
We fast-forward to moving day and Tiphany loves her new tiny apartment. Mia, being the more practical of the two, is worried because the place isn’t on the ground floor.

Tiphany and her co-star friends showed viewers how they live normal lives — or as normal as being beautiful women living in Los Angeles can be. Tiphany was also dating both men and women on Season One, and when Season Two premieres tonight on Sundance, you'll see she's very single and very interested in mingling with a girl she meets at the bar.
"There are some surprises in store," Tiphany said. "And yeah, you'll certainly get to see some surprises in that department!"

Plus, Riley has a special message for 'Lannie' fans: 'They're going to get what they want, but ... they need to enjoy the ride.' For the record, Riley Smith knew that joining 90210 as a love interest for Annie (Shenae Grimes) was going to be an "uphill battle." Not only do Annie's boyfriends tend to have short life spans — few, if any, are ever heard from again — but there's an overwhelming number of "Lannie" fans who refuse to accept Annie with anyone other than Liam (Matt Lanter). But Riley tells HollywoodLife.com not to worry; he's got a plan. "I realized, very quickly, that I was in a lose-lose situation," Riley admits. "I prepared myself for that. This is a character who's always on the offensive, and I figured if I played him like that, he'd be harder to pick on." Riley, who met with Push Girls star Tiphany Adams to prepare for his wheelchair-bound role,...

On October 15, 2000, Tiphany Adams, then a high-school senior in Northern California, was a passenger in a car that was hit head-on by a drunk driver going 130 mph. Tiphany and the two friends who were in the car with her were all pronounced dead at the scene... until an Emt detected life in Tiphany's body. She was airlifted to the nearest hospital and spent the next three weeks in a coma; when she came out of it, she learned that the injuries she'd sustained in the accident had left her permanently paralyzed from the waist down. Now, almost 12 years later, Tiphany is one of the inspiring stars of the new Sundance Channel reality show "Push Girls," which gives viewers an intimate glimpse into the challenges wheelchair-using women face. In this candid interview, Tiphany shares some of the life lessons she's learned about personal growth, self-awareness, and coping with other people's false assumptions -- and fears.

"I just celebrated 20 years of my accident," announced Auti Angel at a luncheon at Robert for the reality show Push Girls. Premiering on the Sundance Channel, the show features four feisty and beautiful wheelchair-bound stars: three friends -- Tiphany Adams and Angela Rockwood as well as Auti -- who are car accident survivors, and Mia Schaikewitz, a champion swimmer who as a teen suffered a ruptured blood vessel in her spine, causing her paralysis. So, just what is making Auti, a dancer who cannot walk, so happy about a life change that many would consider tragic?
The reality show format has proven itself as a mesmerizing vehicle for examining life's vicissitudes. Perhaps this entertainment appeals to the voyeur in each of us. Push Girls offers a glimpse into a world that may have been eh, pushed aside.
