Did You Know?

• The first season winner was Nicole Alexander, better known as 'Hoopz'.
• Season 2 winner was Angela 'Myammee' Pitts.

Season 3 (Unaired)

Season 3 of I Love Money was planned as the next installment after the first two seasons. The cast was drawn from other VH1 reality shows, including Flavor of Love, Rock of Love with Bret Michaels, I Love New York, Real Chance of Love, For the Love of Ray J, Daisy of Love, and Megan Wants a Millionaire. Filming ran from late June to early August 2009, with Craig J. Jackson returning as host. Ryan Alexander Jenkins won the competition. The season was originally scheduled to air in January 2010, but in August 2009, VH1 pulled it entirely. This decision came after Jenkins became a suspect in the murder of Jasmine Fiore and later died by suicide. It was later revealed that Jenkins had a 2007 assault conviction, but a subcontractor hired to vet contestants failed to catch it. 51 Minds officials stated that if they had known about his record, he would not have been allowed on any of their shows.

The female contestants included Deelishis and Buckeey from Flavor of Love, Lacey Conner and Marcia "Brazil" Alves from Rock of Love, Bubbles from Real Chance of Love, and Lil Hood, Cashmere, and Cocktail from For the Love of Ray J. The male contestants were Wolf and Pretty from I Love New York, Fox, Sinister, Weasel, Big Rig, and Professor from Daisy of Love, and Joe Pascolla and Ryan Jenkins from Megan Wants a Millionaire. As of 2026, this season has never been released. In 2025, producer Mark Cronin mentioned that the footage has never been edited into episodes.

On May 9, 2020, four cast members—Lil Hood, Weasel, Big Rig, and Joe—held a one-time tell-all on YouTube. Lil Hood explained at the start that they would not discuss Jenkins or Fiore, focusing only on the show itself. On November 23, 2020, Cocktail appeared on Lacey's Talk of Love Podcast, where she shared her memories of the season. She revealed she was the runner-up and confirmed that Ryan Jenkins had won. In April 2024, Buckeey, also known as Shay Johnson, briefly discussed her experience on the show in an interview with Carlos King, again confirming Jenkins as the winner.
