George Weisgerber

George Weisgerber III is best known for being the winner of the reality TV show "I Love New York 2". On the show his nickname was Tailor Made.

To achieve victory Weisgerber out-smarted and manipulated the other contestants and lavished New York aka Tiffany Pollard with expensive gifts. There has been significant controversy regarding his actions. During one episode, he and "Mr. Wise" got into a fight after Mr. Wise told him he did not like Tailor Made's bad attitude towards the other men in the house, and how he was always running off to tell New York something. While the two were face-to-face, Tailor Made spat in Mr. Wise's face. Mr. Wise was restrained by fellow contestant "The Entertainer" and several producers. New York was very upset because in episode 8 of Flavor of Love, season 1, she was spat on by fellow contestant Pumkin. New York gave Tailor Made a severe verbal lashing, but he stayed in the competition. On the reunion show, Tailor Made and Mr. Wise got into another fight concerning the spitting incident, where Tailor Made accused Mr. Wise of spitting in his face first. They rewound the tape and found that Mr. Wise had called Tailor Made a pussy, and some saliva did get onto him, but it wasn't intentional. Before Alani "La La" Vasquez announced it was time for the T.V break, Mr. Wise jumped on Tailor Made but did not hit him. Several security guards rushed toward the two, and Mr. Wise was escorted out of the building.

During the season finale he proposed to Tiffany Pollard while still legally being married to another woman. According to official court documents, Tailor Made's divorce was finalized on April 18, 2008. ["Weisgerber, Lilian N. v. Weisgerber, George III", New York Civil Supreme Court.
