People say she really messed up this season but to be honest, I think they just didn't notice it last year because there was far bigger dramas going on.
She really didn't contribute much to the show at all when you think about it either. Everything she did was about flogging something - her hotel, her vodka, her shoe line, PR for her basketball team etc. Just crap that didn't add to a particular storyline whatsoever. She started a petty argument with Lisa because Pandora wanted to celebrate her bachelorette party in a venue that was not her hotel. It was pathetic.
She really showed her hypocrisy this season too. Whatever happened to ''friends don't sue friends''? :rolleyes: When you think about it, it was the threat of a lawsuit that forced Adrienne to take a stand against Russell's abuse. She wasn't sticking up for her abused friend Taylor but for herself from a lawsuit.
And then there's that attention-seeking chef she hires. How professional is it to have ''the help'' publicly bash your guests and even your husband? She posed for photos that showed off bruises on her back which Bernie then made public - and viciously accused Paul of physical abuse! That's downright disgusting to do to someone. I'm by no means suggesting Russell Armstrong committed suicide in 2011 just because the abuse allegations were about to be made public knowledge but I'm sure it added his reasons. Adrienne was playing a very dangerous game with that type of mud-slinging and it just proves how far she'd go to get her own way. Having said that, how could she or Bernie have expected anyone to have believed it? We saw her in the very first episode showing off her self-defense skills. She was literally throwing the instructor's son around like a rag doll! She can obviously defend herself if she needed to. Besides, if you were in an abusive marriage would you really be berating and nitpicking every little thing your husband did on-camera for 3 years?
Anyway, that's my rant on her over now. She can take her fake-tanned Maloof-hoof off my TV screen now. :cool:
100% spot
She is just Vile Cant believe i liked her in S1 & 2 when in fact realising now what you said is exactly what she did all the time.
as brandy says 'Money doen't buy you class' :cool:
as brandy says 'Money doen't buy you class' :cool:
The money doesn't by you class will always be Luanns line never Brandi's.:eek: but to be fair Brandi would know because she has no class either. No housewives has class. If they did they wouldn't be on a reality TV show acting like narcissistic, manipulative bitches.
I just watched the episode of the BH housewives in Ojai again. It's the night after Brandi tells Adrienne to ''shut the f*** up!''. There's the moment where Brandi brings up her experiences of giving birth and asks everyone around the table about theirs. They made a point of showing Adrienne's answer. She even mentions having a C-section and having Paul in the room. Of course, at the time I think most of us didn't realise Brandi probably had an ulterior motive in asking that question. Producers also tried to cleverly disguise the moment by putting the focus on Camille who said she couldn't relate to any of the conversation because she'd had surrogate. Lots of toying around with exposing Adrienne's true colours at that point.
So glad Adrienne's gone. Now could Trailertrash, Lu, most of Vancouver/Miami and Kim follow her?
Bring back Jill.
I honestly couldn't see much difference in Vicky, but my eyesight is terrible. Besides I watch her in total fascination for what comes out of her mouth, not what she looks like. All the OC seem to dress in 80's Dallas/Dynasyy mode.
Classy they are not.
She really showed her hypocrisy this season too. Whatever happened to ''friends don't sue friends''?
But that's the thing. I don't think Adrienne did send letter to Brandi threatening legal action.
Brandi did tell fibs about the letter. Adrienne wrote a letter to a mutual friend discussing the situation and that she was considering it. This friend passed it over the Brandi and then Brandi took it upon herself to hire a lawyer.

Haha! Love this comment!
I must admit, having watched it the longest RHOC is still my fav - despite the others being so entertaining. I just love the needless drama and bitchfests that r constantly present in OC.

Though I find it strange that people find the Camille/Taylor and Brandi/Adrienne situation comparable. Camille was speaking out about allegations of crimes being committed and was motivated from a good place. Brandi was revealing personal stuff involving the children which was purely motivated by getting back at someone. There's a reason why the show didn't reveal what was said because in the real world there isn't a court in the world who wouldn't side with Adrienne on that.
Even Camille who was the target last time got that.
The letter sent by Adrienne's lawyers was to Brandi's friend threatening to sue but as it mentioned Brandi, she had to hire lawyers to cover herself as it was a legal letter stating their intent to sue if they didn't play ball. Even Paul has conceded since what it was and said that Adrienne/Bernie had been selling stories to the press the whole time about Lisa, Brandi and later Paul himself.
Yes, Brandi was wrong to blurt out the surrogacy thing, but the initial stories Adrienne leaked to the press which she denied, conspiring against Lisa at the last reunion and then the way she handled the Brandi situation were all completely wrong, something even her own friends have admitted since at the reunion. I used to like Adrienne and still do to a degree but she's been shown up by her own actions imo.
I believe if you don't want it to come out that you used a surrogate then don't tell casual acquaintances like Brandi you business.
By all accounts they were great friends before the show...didn't you watch it when Brandi joined? It was Adrienne that introduced her and Brandi seems to forget that. No matter how much someone likes Brandi anyone with any morals can understand why what she said was wrong. Did Adrienne handle it wrong? Absolutely. But if Brandi 'shut her big fat mouth' like she hypocritically told Adrienne to do then she wouldn't have had legal bills to pay or be in any mess. I'm so over her 'I dont attack, I defend myself' bullshit.

I have my theory of how it all transpired. Andy Cohen and Lisa Vanderpump are close friends off the show. Adrienne attacks Lisa at the reunion and the next season her one taboo is outed by Andy & Lisa's pitbul and she's portrayed the bad guy. So Andy & Lisa win, Adrienne's name got dragged through the mud and they kept their hands clean. Smart move. Then I suppose it begs the question, did Adrienne tell Brandi or did Bravo, hence the lawsuit against them? It's funny though we've seen this all before on NY. Jill & Andy's bff Bethenny anyone?
I'm not saying Adrienne's innocent because she is her own worst enemy.
Regarding the Housewives to get rid of, your not taking Kim anywhere, love me some Kim! Have Lu & Sonja though! In fact take Heather & Gretchen from the OC too!
Tally are you ready for another season of Vicki and her love tank?
Tally are you ready for another season of Vicki and her love tank?
*vomit smiley* BARF
I am most definitely ready foe another season of OC and it's matriarch, but the mental picture of Vicki getting her love tank filled up is gross beyond words.
Despite it being the original Housewife show, OC is probably the only one I've never really watched. Anytime I've seen bits on TV I found it hard to follow as all the women looked far similar to differentiate.
I'll tune in for the new episode though and try to get into this season.
Just caught up with the Atlanta finale. Really enjoyed it
I think, in theory, Kenya's party was a fab idea, I loved the theme and all the ladies looked great in their costumes. Its just a shame they spent more time arguing in the parking lot!
Kenya was Foxy Brown, she looked fabulous and I loved the 'fro Nene was Grace Jones and worked it for all it was worth, Kandi was Tina Turner but Ooh that wig! :eek: She totally drew the short straw with that, Cynthia was Diana Ross, her costume was a bit too "normal" for my idea of a themed party, but this is Cynthia so obviously she looked sensational. She would look good in a bin bag. Phaedra was Eatha Kitt and I thought she looked fab, and I loved the outfit, she made it "donkalicious" as she said! And Porscha......Ooh Porscha she set the cat among the pigeons by turning up looking fabulous as Dorothy Dandridge......except Kenya had assigned her the rather less glam character of Baps and to say she was not amused was an understatement!
I love that Porscha turned up looking fab, lets face it we all know Kenya was just out for revenge after Porscha kicked her ass out of that party at the beginning of the season. But dont mess with Kenya, she has security and they will escort Dorothy Dandridge out! And they did. Kenya flipped when Porscha turned up and had her turfed right back out. Apparently Porscha messed up Kenyas theme and she had a little bit planned that related to the ladies and their costumes. Except it really didnt, all Kenya did was have them walk up on stage, do a little catwalk and then sit back down Porscha being Baps or not had no effect whatsoever.
Anyway, Kenya has Porscha kicked out, Cynthia and Kandi were gobsmacked at the crazy she was acting and follow them outside, they handled it well, they basically said if Porscha leaves, they will aswell. This is not how you host a party! they bitch back and forth at each other in the parking lot and eventually Kenya relents and says they can come back in- Im pretty sure she realised if the ladies left the cameras would to, and Nene hadnt even arrived at this point!
Porscha say she will come back in, but only if Kenya apologises (this has to be the least sincere apology ever on Kenya's part, and you can tell it riled her to give it!) during all this Porscha's hubby (soon to be ex) finds his voice and decides to have a go at Kenyas assistant. Uggh. Kordell is such a loser, and notice how he didnt seem that fussed at all when Kenya had his wife thrown out. Porscha is SO much better off without this idiot :mad:
Nene stole the show when she arrived, she looked fab as Grace Jones and was thrashing her whip around like she meant business! She even gave Kenya a talking to, but Id have loved to see Kenya v Nene, as it is I think Kenya knows better than to pull her crazy antics on Nene.
I also have to give a special mention to Nene being led through the party in a chariott by a group of men. It was fabulous, and I just knew Nene would stamp DIVA all over that. And she didnt dissapoint!
Phaedra is now branching out into stun guns Love it. Lawyer, mortician, donkologist.......Phaedra never fails me! She and Kandi were so funny at the self defence class and I loved her imagining she was tasering Kenya's "Home Depot" booty!
The updates at the end were good, Kenya is apparently seeing an African Oil Tycoon :rolleyes: Ok, Im guess shes seeing him like she was "seeing" Walter! In her mind!
Roll on the reunion next week, looks like great fun. Im loving Kenya with that fan!
Im going to miss the Atlanta ladies, they are by far my fave of the Housewives and Im already anticipating next season! I hope Kenya is back, shes cray-cray, but shes such fun to watch and she brings the drama. Ive also really warmed to Porscha, and now that shes free of that awful hubby Id look forward to seeing her back next season- I think we would see a whole new side to her. This divorce will be the best thing for her Ive no doubt.
Looking forward to new OC aswell, but not so much Vicki's WooHoos!
The reunion looks hilariously camp and entertaining as ever. Kenya and that fan. Nene vs. Phaedra? Where did that come from? Kenya's allegations against Apollo and then.... in walks Kim.
''Come in Wig'' Gotta love the Rich Bitch Nene Leakes!
By all accounts they were great friends before the show...didn't you watch it when Brandi joined? It was Adrienne that introduced her and Brandi seems to forget that. No matter how much someone likes Brandi anyone with any morals can understand why what she said was wrong. Did Adrienne handle it wrong? Absolutely. But if Brandi 'shut her big fat mouth' like she hypocritically told Adrienne to do then she wouldn't have had legal bills to pay or be in any mess.

Given its almost be proven beyond doubt that Adrienne is at least part responsible for selling stories I feel no sympathy for her. Personally I don't get why it's a big deal for Adrienne but not for Camille.
In regards to the conspiracy theory I think it's too far fetched to be true. Brandi doesn't need nudging to say inappropriate things at least not from what I've seen.
I believe if you don't want it to come out that you used a surrogate then don't tell casual acquaintances like Brandi you business.
Adrienne sent a letter to the person she thought had been leaking this information. This mutual acquaintance.
That kind of suggests she didn't tell Brandi but somebody else had been leaking info to Brandi to leak to the show and Adrienne thought it was this person.
Basically Brandi was the Bernie, giving info to the media (in this case the show) that somebody else had fed her.
This is amazing in so many ways but I think the best bit is Kandi's eye-roll after Kenya goes on about her heart being real. She always gives good face in the reunions.
A bit behind my shows tbh but caught up with Atlanta finally. I haven't been up to speed with what is going on with regards to Kenya and Walter but now she is saying she never slept with him and that he is gay. Is there any truth to that or is it a case of sour grapes because he didn't want to marry her? I also heard a rumour that he was the hired help (fake bf) but I can't see how Kenya would hire someone like that and then act like she's been hurt so badly by him if it was all a rouse to show everyone she had a man. If her reality is faked, then what is the point of being on reality television. I'd rather watch her being sad and alone, than pretending to be unhappy with a guy she hired for filming purposes. So confused.
By all accounts they were great friends before the show...didn't you watch it when Brandi joined? It was Adrienne that introduced her and Brandi seems to forget that. No matter how much someone likes Brandi anyone with any morals can understand why what she said was wrong. Did Adrienne handle it wrong? Absolutely.

Adrienne is a nasty piece of work she gets her staff to sell stories on her behalf. Also it shows something when Even Kyle has said she has not been in contact with Adrienne for ages.
Adrienne was even lying when she said no letter was sent out when there was one sent out and shes a woman who got her chef to leak stories of Paul Beating her she an attention **** she may have the money but she craves for the celebrity status.
Playing devils advocate here but I think Adrienne quit the show mid season and Bravo have punished her for it.
I haven't seen any more evidence of Brandi's claims that Adrienne is selling stories than I have Adrienne's accusations that Lisa is. Brandi is just going by the assumption that Bernie is the one who was telling stories about her based on his twitter rants, but Radar could had easily picked up the stories from Bernie’s feed and at some point he got tired of it and demanded to be paid if his stories were going to be used.
Brandi can claim that Bernie was acting on Adrienne’s behalf but then we go back to the same senseless argument that Brandi was acting just like Lisa’s mouthpiece.
I mean Bernie is currently mouthing of about Kyle in support of Lisa. He just seems like a loose cannon. Maybe Adrienne has been complacent, maybe she could sack him but we don't know the level of their relationship. He might be more than an employee, he might be a friend like Brandi is to Lisa... or maybe Adrienne likes what he doe?
That's not to say Adrienne isn't guilty... maybe she is. To be honest I think they all give stories to media outlets via various routes but who, what, how, why is all just speculation and claims made by Brandi.
And I think Brandi's honesty has been called into question just as much... maybe more.
None of the women seem to know about this 'gang up meeting' Adrienne invited them to. The only person who knew something was Camille who was invited to something but didn't seem to be aware it was a 'gang up meeting' and got very angry when suggested she did.
And then there is this letter. Lets follow this from the beginning.
Brandi said there was a lawsuit. This then changed to a cease and desist order. When Camille confronted her Brandi continued to maintain Adrienne had taken legal action... until Camille told her that they could easily go to the courts and find the records. Suddenly Brandi had only received a threatening letter. The reunion comes round and it turns out Brandi didn't receive a letter at all it was some other woman who Adrienne had believed was leaking information of which Brandi was but one of the recipients. And that it was this woman's lawyers that Brandi had been dealing with and asked to sit down and meet with... not Adrienne's.
Never in all this months, during filming, after filming, while waiting for the reunion, never once did Brandi ever mention this friend Geneva who was the actual recipient of the letter, she had plenty of opportunities to clarify, plenty of interviews by all kinds of media, her twitter post, any of that, but for months and months we heard nothing about her friend, not one word.
The final story is a hell of a journey away from what Brandi was originally claiming and went through several changes on the way. Therefore her reliability on other things I call into question too.
......<snip> Porscha's hubby (soon to be ex) finds his voice and decides to have a go at Kenyas assistant. Uggh. Kordell is such a loser, and notice how he didnt seem that fussed at all when Kenya had his wife thrown out. Porscha is SO much better off without this idiot :mad:
Nene stole the show when she arrived, she looked fab as Grace Jones and was thrashing her whip around like she meant business!
Phaedra is now branching out into stun guns Love it. Lawyer, mortician, donkologist.......Phaedra never fails me! She and Kandi were so funny at the self defence class and I loved her imagining she was tasering Kenya's "Home Depot" booty!

Sums it up beautifully, Sassy. Absolutely cracked up both at Nene's Grace Jones and Phaedra's latest entrepreneurial venture. Does she stun them then suggest they sign up with her funeral parlour.....just in case?
So the ''meanest thing you could say'' was Brandi saying she felt Kyle wanted Kim to fail in her sobriety.
In all fairness, I have seen comments about Kyle and Kim's relationship that strongly alludes to that on this very thread. So Brandi isn't exactly alone in having that opinion. But I don't think it needed to be said. The comment probably generated the biggest reaction out of all the ladies during the entire reunion and you could see on Brandi's face that she realised she went too far - especially as both sisters broke down over it. Brandi then, quite rightly, apologised.
I do feel for Kim and it seems everyone does genuinely want her to succeed but she has to understand that she can't expect the trust from Kyle so soon. As they said, this has been a problem for almost all her life so it's no wonder Kyle isn't raising her hopes too high. Then there's the fact Kim is very over-sensitive. You have to choose every little word carefully because it might hurt her feelings and make her think she's being doubted. Joking about it is a big no-no too. She has to learn that that's how a lot of people cope with uncomfortable or distressing things in life - by making light of it. Maybe she needs to be the one cracking the jokes and beat everyone to the punch.
Taylor, once again, was very quiet. Is this the same woman? She only really spoke up once Bernie's claims of Paul's abuse came up. But even then she looked too scared to really say anything. What has happened to her? She was never shy in coming forward before. I think it's safe to say her time on the show has wrapped up. Reunion shows are about closing chapters and starting new ones. Everything about Taylor throughout was about her coming to an end with regards to her legal troubles, her drinking habits are past and she's moved on in her love life. There was no drama with the other ladies that would transcend on to a storyline in season 4. So I think she was well aware this was her final appearance and wanted to go out with some sort of quiet dignity.
Speaking of Paul, the breakdown of his marriage was another main topic of the episode. Everyone agreed that he was a good man who loved his children and that he would never do what he was accused of. I'll miss Paul on the show. He seemed like the nicer person in that marriage.
Anyway, the reunion ends on a light note and it's pleasant to see all the ladies raise a toast together. That would never happen in New Jersey for example! They'd all be wearing the champagne!
Agree with everything you have said Brumilad! I was going to quote for emphasis but it would probably make my post a page long lol.
Over on the reunion:
Brandi is vile. There is just no other word for her, she's classless and it seems her popularity took a hit last night; over on Twitter she was getting some serious hate and even death threats:eek: and sites such as Radar Online and All About The Real Housewives who are usually full of avid Brandi fans have nothing but negative comments, maybe one or two positive but that's it. Thank god others are starting to open their eyes. She's like a three year old that says something mean and thinks saying sorry covers it. Loved seeing her trying to backtrack once realised no one was going to cover her ass and back her vile statement. It's a shame I really liked Brandi at the beginning.
Kim was amazing last night, she had Brandi's number and Brandi knew it! She played Brandi at her own game - blind siding, and Brandi's face told a thousand words. I get Kyle's side and Kim's side of things. I think we all knew Kyle didn't mean to say 'sober', Lisa got it right, she wasn't lucid. It was heartbreaking to hear and see Kim when she said this was her last chance, she couldn't do it again if she fell off. I think that really does -or it should- prove to everyone just how much she really does want this. I love Kim & TURTLES!
Yolanda was hit and miss for me. I like her then I don't then I do then I don't. It was obvious she did say it about Lisa, she even said things about her on camera in Paris! She's such a hypocrite thought, she makes fun of Kims sobriety with 'You remember?' and then tells Kim she can't bring up her illness..I think not Yolanda, you were the one saying in your blogs you can't remember things etc and all Kim did was link the two. Another contradicting thing was when Yolanda said she gets they will always have each others backs because they're sisters then says in her blog she doesn't understand the relationship and it's all fake when they defend each other, gurl, what is it? I'm starting to wonder if Yoyo is even the one that writes her blog. What happened to hers and Taylors 'big argument' that was reported to have taken place?
Lisa looks different. Has she had work done? Anyway her constant smirking when Kyle was crying was really pissing me off? More has to have happened with her and Kyle for her to drag it out this long! I did like how she supported Kim, whether it was authentic or not is another thing though. She just seems very manipulative to me. Her comment about Kyle and Mauricio having business relationships were bull. If she acts the way she does with Kyle then why would Mauricio hang with them without her or when she was uncomfortable? He wouldn't, it's called loyalty. Kens face lighting up when Mauricio explained was adorable, I think he wants this mess all cleared up. Ken is like a teddy bear, just adorable!
Kyle has done a complete 360 for me this season. I used to loathe her and now shes my second favourite after Kim. I do thinks she likes being the top dog over Kim but I don't she wants her to fail in sobriety, no way! Taylor was right Kyle went through just as much hell as Kim. I wish she'd just get over Lisa and tell her to 'f*ck off'. She's better off without her. I like Mauricio. I admire that he knows when to apologise but also stands by his words. I thought it was really sweet when Kyle said if her net worth was $120million that Kims would be more too...I'm assuming she meant she'd give her money. Also, who does Kim 'only' have a net worth of $1million?:eek:
Taylor has completely checked out of the show. I don't even think she wants to come back next season but I hope her and Kennedy remain happy with her new fella. It was nice of her to defend Kyle when Brandi made those remarks.
Well it's all done folks..role on season 4! Gonna miss these ladies.
Over on the OC...
Vicki looks great, I love the new look! She never annoyed me once this episode. I'm liking the new vicki! I hope she keeps away from Tamra, she's poison. Her grandson is cute!
Alexis I love! I did role my eyes when she started describing her house and mentioned that she wasn't renting...it looks amazing though! I even liked Jim:eek:! They both seem a lot happier this season and that's lovely to see.
Tamra is a goddamn bitch. But she is TV gold. She is the villain and plays it well. She looks different though? Her and Eddie don't look in a good place. She is so mean about Vicki it's unreal.
Gretchen's voice is like nails on a chalkboard. I hope this is her last season..and Slades. Tamra's bff is not a good look for her.
Heather, I like but her treatment of Alexis annoys me. You were in the wrong and what happened at that table last season was bullying and Heather was the ringleader. Her home is as beautiful as ever. I like how she defended Vicki instead of folding to the others and calling her a liar. Her part did seem a bit pointless though..nothing happened unless its being continued next week.
What has happened to these women? Every second word was bitch! :eek: It was more like The Real Diva's of the Ghetto...
Just finished watching the BH reunion part two and it seemed a bit disappointing after all the drama this season, which I'm guessing is because Adrienne no showed. I like Brandi but I thought the whole shit stain on the pillow thing was uncalled for, and while I could see what she meant with the Kyle/Kim comment I just wish she'd learn some tact when it comes to below the belt comments. I kind of think Yolanda might not want to do another series and Taylor definitely won't be back so I'm thinking next series will be Lisa/Kyle/Kim/Brandi and three new women.
I'm not really too bothered about OC, it's in dire need of a shake up. I'd be quite happy with Vicky and 4 new people. Is NJ due to start again anytime soon?
They've just filmed the finale! So it shouldn't be too long, probably in May is my guess. The finale seems crazy, there is a massive fight where Joe Gorga, Chris Laurita & Jac all attack this man and leave him bloodied and bruised(he's pressing charges). It's at Kim D's new shop, apparently the shop was trashed, glass everywhere, sinks pulled off of the wall and blood all over the floors and up the walls. Wait for it, that's not the best of it!...Tre gets the blame! Despite not even being involved in the whole scene she's getting the blame because the guy told him Tre had told him things. Poor Tre.

She is just Vile Cant believe i liked her in S1 & 2 when in fact realising now what you said is exactly what she did all the time.
as brandy says 'Money doen't buy you class' :cool:
The money doesn't by you class will always be Luanns line never Brandi's.:eek: but to be fair Brandi would know because she has no class either. No housewives has class. If they did they wouldn't be on a reality TV show acting like narcissistic, manipulative bitches.
Bring back Jill.
Classy they are not.
Brandi did tell fibs about the letter. Adrienne wrote a letter to a mutual friend discussing the situation and that she was considering it. This friend passed it over the Brandi and then Brandi took it upon herself to hire a lawyer.
Haha! Love this comment!
I must admit, having watched it the longest RHOC is still my fav - despite the others being so entertaining. I just love the needless drama and bitchfests that r constantly present in OC.
Agree that Lu and Kim need to go!
The letter sent by Adrienne's lawyers was to Brandi's friend threatening to sue but as it mentioned Brandi, she had to hire lawyers to cover herself as it was a legal letter stating their intent to sue if they didn't play ball. Even Paul has conceded since what it was and said that Adrienne/Bernie had been selling stories to the press the whole time about Lisa, Brandi and later Paul himself.
Yes, Brandi was wrong to blurt out the surrogacy thing, but the initial stories Adrienne leaked to the press which she denied, conspiring against Lisa at the last reunion and then the way she handled the Brandi situation were all completely wrong, something even her own friends have admitted since at the reunion.

But if Brandi 'shut her big fat mouth' like she hypocritically told Adrienne to do then she wouldn't have had legal bills to pay or be in any mess. I'm so over her 'I dont attack, I defend myself' bullshit.
I have my theory of how it all transpired. Andy Cohen and Lisa Vanderpump are close friends off the show. Adrienne attacks Lisa at the reunion and the next season her one taboo is outed by Andy & Lisa's pitbul and she's portrayed the bad guy. So Andy & Lisa win, Adrienne's name got dragged through the mud and they kept their hands clean. Smart move. Then I suppose it begs the question, did Adrienne tell Brandi or did Bravo, hence the lawsuit against them? It's funny though we've seen this all before on NY. Jill & Andy's bff Bethenny anyone?
I'm not saying Adrienne's innocent because she is her own worst enemy.
Regarding the Housewives to get rid of, your not taking Kim anywhere, love me some Kim! Have Lu & Sonja though! In fact take Heather & Gretchen from the OC too!
Tally are you ready for another season of Vicki and her love tank?
I am most definitely ready foe another season of OC and it's matriarch, but the mental picture of Vicki getting her love tank filled up is gross beyond words.
So, in plain English "NOOOO" TMI
I'll tune in for the new episode though and try to get into this season.
I think, in theory, Kenya's party was a fab idea, I loved the theme and all the ladies looked great in their costumes. Its just a shame they spent more time arguing in the parking lot!
Kenya was Foxy Brown, she looked fabulous and I loved the 'fro
I love that Porscha turned up looking fab, lets face it we all know Kenya was just out for revenge after Porscha kicked her ass out of that party at the beginning of the season. But dont mess with Kenya, she has security and they will escort Dorothy Dandridge out! And they did. Kenya flipped when Porscha turned up and had her turfed right back out. Apparently Porscha messed up Kenyas theme and she had a little bit planned that related to the ladies and their costumes. Except it really didnt, all Kenya did was have them walk up on stage, do a little catwalk and then sit back down
Anyway, Kenya has Porscha kicked out, Cynthia and Kandi were gobsmacked at the crazy she was acting and follow them outside, they handled it well, they basically said if Porscha leaves, they will aswell. This is not how you host a party! they bitch back and forth at each other in the parking lot and eventually Kenya relents and says they can come back in- Im pretty sure she realised if the ladies left the cameras would to, and Nene hadnt even arrived at this point!
Porscha say she will come back in, but only if Kenya apologises (this has to be the least sincere apology ever on Kenya's part, and you can tell it riled her to give it!) during all this Porscha's hubby (soon to be ex) finds his voice and decides to have a go at Kenyas assistant. Uggh. Kordell is such a loser, and notice how he didnt seem that fussed at all when Kenya had his wife thrown out. Porscha is SO much better off without this idiot :mad:
Nene stole the show when she arrived, she looked fab as Grace Jones and was thrashing her whip around like she meant business!
I also have to give a special mention to Nene being led through the party in a chariott by a group of men. It was fabulous, and I just knew Nene would stamp DIVA all over that. And she didnt dissapoint!
Phaedra is now branching out into stun guns
The updates at the end were good, Kenya is apparently seeing an African Oil Tycoon :rolleyes: Ok, Im guess shes seeing him like she was "seeing" Walter! In her mind!
Roll on the reunion next week, looks like great fun. Im loving Kenya with that fan!
Im going to miss the Atlanta ladies, they are by far my fave of the Housewives and Im already anticipating next season! I hope Kenya is back, shes cray-cray, but shes such fun to watch and she brings the drama. Ive also really warmed to Porscha, and now that shes free of that awful hubby Id look forward to seeing her back next season- I think we would see a whole new side to her. This divorce will be the best thing for her Ive no doubt.
Looking forward to new OC aswell, but not so much Vicki's WooHoos!
The reunion looks hilariously camp and entertaining as ever. Kenya and that fan. Nene vs. Phaedra? Where did that come from?
''Come in Wig''
Given its almost be proven beyond doubt that Adrienne is at least part responsible for selling stories I feel no sympathy for her. Personally I don't get why it's a big deal for Adrienne but not for Camille.
In regards to the conspiracy theory I think it's too far fetched to be true. Brandi doesn't need nudging to say inappropriate things at least not from what I've seen.
That kind of suggests she didn't tell Brandi but somebody else had been leaking info to Brandi to leak to the show and Adrienne thought it was this person.
Basically Brandi was the Bernie, giving info to the media (in this case the show) that somebody else had fed her.
This is amazing in so many ways but I think the best bit is Kandi's eye-roll after Kenya goes on about her heart being real. She always gives good face in the reunions.

Walter's radio interview where he tells his side of the story.
Adrienne is a nasty piece of work she gets her staff to sell stories on her behalf. Also it shows something when Even Kyle has said she has not been in contact with Adrienne for ages.
Adrienne was even lying when she said no letter was sent out when there was one sent out and shes a woman who got her chef to leak stories of Paul Beating her she an attention **** she may have the money but she craves for the celebrity status.
I haven't seen any more evidence of Brandi's claims that Adrienne is selling stories than I have Adrienne's accusations that Lisa is. Brandi is just going by the assumption that Bernie is the one who was telling stories about her based on his twitter rants, but Radar could had easily picked up the stories from Bernie’s feed and at some point he got tired of it and demanded to be paid if his stories were going to be used.
Brandi can claim that Bernie was acting on Adrienne’s behalf but then we go back to the same senseless argument that Brandi was acting just like Lisa’s mouthpiece.
I mean Bernie is currently mouthing of about Kyle in support of Lisa. He just seems like a loose cannon. Maybe Adrienne has been complacent, maybe she could sack him but we don't know the level of their relationship. He might be more than an employee, he might be a friend like Brandi is to Lisa... or maybe Adrienne likes what he doe?
That's not to say Adrienne isn't guilty... maybe she is. To be honest I think they all give stories to media outlets via various routes but who, what, how, why is all just speculation and claims made by Brandi.
And I think Brandi's honesty has been called into question just as much... maybe more.
None of the women seem to know about this 'gang up meeting' Adrienne invited them to. The only person who knew something was Camille who was invited to something but didn't seem to be aware it was a 'gang up meeting' and got very angry when suggested she did.
And then there is this letter. Lets follow this from the beginning.
Brandi said there was a lawsuit. This then changed to a cease and desist order. When Camille confronted her Brandi continued to maintain Adrienne had taken legal action... until Camille told her that they could easily go to the courts and find the records. Suddenly Brandi had only received a threatening letter. The reunion comes round and it turns out Brandi didn't receive a letter at all it was some other woman who Adrienne had believed was leaking information of which Brandi was but one of the recipients. And that it was this woman's lawyers that Brandi had been dealing with and asked to sit down and meet with... not Adrienne's.
Never in all this months, during filming, after filming, while waiting for the reunion, never once did Brandi ever mention this friend Geneva who was the actual recipient of the letter, she had plenty of opportunities to clarify, plenty of interviews by all kinds of media, her twitter post, any of that, but for months and months we heard nothing about her friend, not one word.
The final story is a hell of a journey away from what Brandi was originally claiming and went through several changes on the way. Therefore her reliability on other things I call into question too.
Sums it up beautifully, Sassy. Absolutely cracked up both at Nene's Grace Jones and Phaedra's latest entrepreneurial venture. Does she stun them then suggest they sign up with her funeral parlour.....just in case?
Thanks for that. Fascinating. Walter's still a prat though. No amount of editing can disguise his prattiness.
In all fairness, I have seen comments about Kyle and Kim's relationship that strongly alludes to that on this very thread. So Brandi isn't exactly alone in having that opinion. But I don't think it needed to be said. The comment probably generated the biggest reaction out of all the ladies during the entire reunion and you could see on Brandi's face that she realised she went too far - especially as both sisters broke down over it. Brandi then, quite rightly, apologised.
I do feel for Kim and it seems everyone does genuinely want her to succeed but she has to understand that she can't expect the trust from Kyle so soon. As they said, this has been a problem for almost all her life so it's no wonder Kyle isn't raising her hopes too high. Then there's the fact Kim is very over-sensitive. You have to choose every little word carefully because it might hurt her feelings and make her think she's being doubted. Joking about it is a big no-no too. She has to learn that that's how a lot of people cope with uncomfortable or distressing things in life - by making light of it. Maybe she needs to be the one cracking the jokes and beat everyone to the punch.
Taylor, once again, was very quiet. Is this the same woman?
Speaking of Paul, the breakdown of his marriage was another main topic of the episode. Everyone agreed that he was a good man who loved his children and that he would never do what he was accused of. I'll miss Paul on the show. He seemed like the nicer person in that marriage.
Anyway, the reunion ends on a light note and it's pleasant to see all the ladies raise a toast together. That would never happen in New Jersey for example! They'd all be wearing the champagne!
Over on the reunion:
Brandi is vile. There is just no other word for her, she's classless and it seems her popularity took a hit last night; over on Twitter she was getting some serious hate and even death threats:eek: and sites such as Radar Online and All About The Real Housewives who are usually full of avid Brandi fans have nothing but negative comments, maybe one or two positive but that's it. Thank god others are starting to open their eyes. She's like a three year old that says something mean and thinks saying sorry covers it. Loved seeing her trying to backtrack once realised no one was going to cover her ass and back her vile statement. It's a shame I really liked Brandi at the beginning.
Kim was amazing last night, she had Brandi's number and Brandi knew it! She played Brandi at her own game - blind siding, and Brandi's face told a thousand words. I get Kyle's side and Kim's side of things. I think we all knew Kyle didn't mean to say 'sober', Lisa got it right, she wasn't lucid. It was heartbreaking to hear and see Kim when she said this was her last chance, she couldn't do it again if she fell off. I think that really does -or it should- prove to everyone just how much she really does want this. I love Kim & TURTLES!
Yolanda was hit and miss for me. I like her then I don't then I do then I don't. It was obvious she did say it about Lisa, she even said things about her on camera in Paris! She's such a hypocrite thought, she makes fun of Kims sobriety with 'You remember?' and then tells Kim she can't bring up her illness..I think not Yolanda, you were the one saying in your blogs you can't remember things etc and all Kim did was link the two. Another contradicting thing was when Yolanda said she gets they will always have each others backs because they're sisters then says in her blog she doesn't understand the relationship and it's all fake when they defend each other, gurl, what is it? I'm starting to wonder if Yoyo is even the one that writes her blog. What happened to hers and Taylors 'big argument' that was reported to have taken place?
Lisa looks different. Has she had work done? Anyway her constant smirking when Kyle was crying was really pissing me off? More has to have happened with her and Kyle for her to drag it out this long! I did like how she supported Kim, whether it was authentic or not is another thing though. She just seems very manipulative to me. Her comment about Kyle and Mauricio having business relationships were bull. If she acts the way she does with Kyle then why would Mauricio hang with them without her or when she was uncomfortable? He wouldn't, it's called loyalty. Kens face lighting up when Mauricio explained was adorable, I think he wants this mess all cleared up. Ken is like a teddy bear, just adorable!
Kyle has done a complete 360 for me this season. I used to loathe her and now shes my second favourite after Kim. I do thinks she likes being the top dog over Kim but I don't she wants her to fail in sobriety, no way! Taylor was right Kyle went through just as much hell as Kim. I wish she'd just get over Lisa and tell her to 'f*ck off'. She's better off without her. I like Mauricio. I admire that he knows when to apologise but also stands by his words. I thought it was really sweet when Kyle said if her net worth was $120million that Kims would be more too...I'm assuming she meant she'd give her money. Also, who does Kim 'only' have a net worth of $1million?:eek:
Taylor has completely checked out of the show. I don't even think she wants to come back next season but I hope her and Kennedy remain happy with her new fella. It was nice of her to defend Kyle when Brandi made those remarks.
Well it's all done folks..role on season 4! Gonna miss these ladies.
Over on the OC...
Vicki looks great, I love the new look! She never annoyed me once this episode. I'm liking the new vicki! I hope she keeps away from Tamra, she's poison. Her grandson is cute!
Alexis I love! I did role my eyes when she started describing her house and mentioned that she wasn't renting...it looks amazing though! I even liked Jim:eek:! They both seem a lot happier this season and that's lovely to see.
Tamra is a goddamn bitch. But she is TV gold. She is the villain and plays it well. She looks different though? Her and Eddie don't look in a good place. She is so mean about Vicki it's unreal.
Gretchen's voice is like nails on a chalkboard. I hope this is her last season..and Slades. Tamra's bff is not a good look for her.
Heather, I like but her treatment of Alexis annoys me. You were in the wrong and what happened at that table last season was bullying and Heather was the ringleader. Her home is as beautiful as ever. I like how she defended Vicki instead of folding to the others and calling her a liar. Her part did seem a bit pointless though..nothing happened unless its being continued next week.
What has happened to these women? Every second word was bitch! :eek: It was more like The Real Diva's of the Ghetto...
Thanks for reading!
I'm not really too bothered about OC, it's in dire need of a shake up. I'd be quite happy with Vicky and 4 new people. Is NJ due to start again anytime soon?
They've just filmed the finale! So it shouldn't be too long, probably in May is my guess. The finale seems crazy, there is a massive fight where Joe Gorga, Chris Laurita & Jac all attack this man and leave him bloodied and bruised(he's pressing charges). It's at Kim D's new shop, apparently the shop was trashed, glass everywhere, sinks pulled off of the wall and blood all over the floors and up the walls. Wait for it, that's not the best of it!...Tre gets the blame! Despite not even being involved in the whole scene she's getting the blame because the guy told him Tre had told him things. Poor Tre.
