Posted in Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, RHOBH
Y’all know I love Celebrity Apprentice and Days of Our Lives (oops you may not have known that) so it should be no surprise that I was ECSTATIC at the rumors that began on WWHL about Lisa Rinna being on RHOBH. Yes, I did probably start them with this post. Well Lisa was on a local station today and here is what she said when asked… Continue reading »

Posted in Bravo, Jean Kasem, Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, RHOBH
Dear Jean Kasem,
In a ten second sound bite with TMZ today you managed to spill that you “just met with those housewife people, the Bravo people… ” That is unfortunate because you could have gotten a lot of exposure on Real Housewives of Beverly Hills to try and unload that Holmby Hills estate you listed for $42 million last month. Remember that one party you had where you decided to turn the back yard into Sea World replete with A WHALE and some seals and they had to drain the pool to get the whale out afterward? That is exactly what we want from Bravo. You would be PERFECT. But you can’t go running your mouth to TMZ until you get something on paper. I pray that the fact that you are a rich blond who appears to be er…. very “exuberant” at all times… (who are we to speculate, it may just be your personality) may once again save your ass and allow us all to gawk at you very soon.
If so, I have included the RULES for the Fight Club for you to memorize whilst lounging about by your heart-shaped pool. Continue reading »

How did I not now that Kareem Abdul-Jabbar was an educated, intelligent author? I have been enjoying watching him and other minor celebrities (he’s the only household name on the show, the others are…um..not) on Splash! There, I said it. For reasons I am not very clear on, Kareem has written a nearly 3000 word article for HuffPo about the real housewives. It’s interesting. But for today’s too long, didn’t read, Internet user, I will include some of my favorite parts below for those who don’t want to read the whole thing. And for the new folks that like reading such things I will direct you to another post I made, which is one of my favorites about Camille Paglia’s take on The Real Housewives franchises. After that story was brought to Bravo’s attention, Andy had Camille on WWHL. I’m predicting we see Karrem on WWHL soon.
EDIT: Kareem’s article is quite lengthy. It is not my intention to twist the intent of his writing to conform to my perceptions of it. I encourage you all to go to the link and read the entire thing and not rely on my extractions and commentary as representative of his opinion or overall assessment. I simply picked the most interesting points he made from my perspective to review. Your interpretations may vary widely.

Posted in DWTS, Lisa Vanderpump, Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, RHOBH
Gif by T. Kyle RealityTVGifs
Lisa Vanderpump was sadly eliminated from DWTS this week but even she agrees it is probably all for the best. Despite giving it the good ole college try, Lisa was a bit stiff and her competition was so steep that she didn’t stand a chance. I don’t watch DWTS because of the usual Bravo conflicts, but I will be pulling for Andy Dick to go as far as possible. It seems to mean a lot to him to improve and he is sort of inspirational. Yes, I did just say Andy Dick is inspirational. It’s late and I am tired but really, you just have to see him on the show. Trust me, he has great editing.
Here is what Lisa had to say about her elimination and falling ill on camera in an exclusive interview with US. “I have an element of relief, to be honest, because I have been feeling so crappy. I feel better today. It’s been an incredible experience, and you can’t minimize it, but wow, it’s been tough, absolutely. We went straight to the doctor and he said, ‘Your heart rate’s too fast, your blood pressure’s too low, you have a temperature.’ I was a mess, but what do you do? Fainting was weird though, I didn’t like seeing that on the playback.” Continue reading »

It seems that Alyce is not exactly living in a bubble when it comes to all of the attacks on her personally and professionally on social media. Edited: The author of this article, Michael Kiefer, originally published this piece in The Republic which was picked up by USA Today. I am changing the link to go to the original source. Tirades against Alyce have extended to phone calls to her office, and the offices of those who have her booked for speaking engagements. I’ve excerpted a couple of the more interesting points below, but the entire article is definitely worth a read and pause for thought. Continue reading »

What secrets could possibly be left for the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills to reveal? Do we even want to know?
Brandi’s Secrets:
1. Brandy says that her Oscars dress fit when she tried it on but she didn’t try it on the night before. When she got there it took four people to get her in it.
2. Brandi called child stars “a particular breed of hideous” in her book. Andy points out that Kim and Kyle were child stars. I laughed out loud. Brandi says she was talking about Leann but that some child stars have a certain brattiness as a result of getting what they want from an early age.
3. In Paris, Brandi showed the two men from Louis Vuitton her bra. I suppose technically it is a bra. It’s black and the cup is lattice work with more boob than lattice. We also learn that Brandi had very large, very dark areolas. I did not need to know that.
4. Brandi made out in the bathroom with the hot guy at the white party. He is still “in her life.” But they are not dating. Continue reading »

3 Musketeers From Yolanda’s Twitter
So my email is blowing up with people asking, “Did Lisa Vanderpump have a stroke?” My answer is that it appears to be just a Twitter Rumor. Let’s hope so anyway. It appears that on Wednesday Lisa arrived back in LA after flying straight back from NYC where she was appearing at the Bravo Upfronts and Live With Kelly and Michael. Her last tweet on Wednesday was that she was headed to rehearsal and that she was “absolutely knackered.” Then yesterday reports circulated on media sites that she had FAINTED at rehearsal. Apparently that happened on Wednesday. No one in her circle on twitter, like Brandi Glanville for example, has even acknowledged that she had a health problem at all. I am not sure where this “stroke” rumor originated but there is nothing to substantiate that at this time. All we know for sure is that she fainted or had need of medical attention last Wednesday at the Dancing With The Stars rehearsal. Continue reading »

Kim has a belated blog post about the RHOBH reunion. It’s um… well. I am not even going to try to comment on it. I will leave that to you guys. I am including the two most interesting parts. First, she tries to defend the shit stained pillow. Speaking of the pillow, the original Kim’s pillow twitter got removed! And then, she has a lot to say to Yolanda. Yolanda, who actually made much more of an effort to befriend her in Paris than anyone else, seems to be the target of her wrath and the only one she is not still friendly with. Take a read and tell me what you think…
With regards to Brandi. . .Brandi baffles me. I really don’t know why she jumped in on my conversation with Yolanda. Yolanda and I were having a discussion that had absolutely nothing to do with her! The next thing I know she’s talking about my pillow — which was really quite mean! When I asked Brandy why, she said she was protecting her friend! Continue reading »

Woke up this morning to this picture in my inbox.
Tonight Andy has 99 problems and they are all bitches, it’s called the Bravo upfronts! It seems like just yesterday that Sheree Whitfield got fired just before the Bravo Upfronts. But in reality that was a full year ago. Last year at this time, the upfronts party was televised on WWHL. That was a straight up disaster! But live party or no, the upfronts are usually very informative. We can tell who is coming back for another season by who shows up. Here is the tea…
UPDATE: Kim Richards and Heather Dubrow were both reportedly absent from upfronts. No idea if they had a note. Did Heather have a prior commitment or did she quit mid-season a la Kim Zolciak? (Update again, Heather says she has spring break with the kids already planned. Didn’t Kim Z already use that excuse once?) Has Kim Richards finally had enough? Or is this yet another accommodation?
