UPDATE: IT’S OFFICIAL: Phaedra is listed on Ellen’s website as a guest with Heidi Klum! Waiting for hell to freeze over next…
Phaedra’s publicist has confirmed that Phaedra will film an interview with Ellen DeGeneres on October 14th that will air on October 15th. According to a statement, “Phaedra will be very candid about what happened with Apollo, her life now and plans for the future.” Her publicist has indicated that WWHL had not approached her for an interview.
Phaedra will likely be about as candid and Teresa was on WWHL. For someone who can’t give a deposition in her own case, where she is the plaintiff, I can’t imagine her doing anything but trying to hawk her book. I cannot for the life of me figure out why Ellen would book her. She rarely has any Reality TV personalities on the show. Frankly, none of this makes sense to me. We shall see what happens. If it happens, it should be interesting.
What do you think Phaedra will talk about? Does Ellen know enough to know what to ask about? Will she ask about the Stanton case that is ongoing? Will she ask why she is trying to wall herself into her house? Will Ellen mention the TMZ story about Apollo showing up at the house when he was supposed to be in prison? Will Phaedra candidly admit it did not happen like that?
Is Nene somewhere having a coronary that Phaedra is going on Ellen?
Talk to me.
I’m still questioning why Andy did not want to interview her. Nevertheless I see this as simply a promotion for the upcoming season
This can’t be true, right?? Right???? How weird. Don’t get me wrong,I believe you and what you know, but from Ellen??? You must have meant Wendy Williams though, right?? Lol!!! I can’t imagine Ellen going in too hard on Pheadra. Guess we will see soon enough!
Several sites are reporting it with quotes from her publicists statement. This is not from my sources. I find it really hard to believe. She tweeted that she is coming to the west coast that week and is trying to drum up book signings.
I really can’t imagine Ellen giving two farts about Phaedra Parks.

Maybe RHOA is really one of Ellen’s secret pleasures that we don’t know about yet. Don’t look at me in that tone of voice online so I can’t tell what you’re all thinking. It could happen. Lol. Or what could really be the truth is one of Ellen’s people (or Ellen for that matter) is a reader here and wants to know the truth.
It’s bizarre.

SMH. Ellen? Phaedra? Not computing.
I can totally see Ellen watching RHOA . Why wouldn’t she? She watched the RHONY. Ellen is just as messy from what I read about her.
I don’t think Ellen watches the Bravo shit. I think she knew of Bethenny from her Hollywood days and watched a bit for her. She has a thing for Bethenny.

If Ellen was into RHOA she’d most likely have had Nene on the show.
In a previous comment here TT said that she has had Nene on the show, maybe even more than once, but that it was during her Glee days.
Why Nene and not Kenya for that matter or, Kandi, Cynthia, Porsha, mama Joyce or Peter? Not having them on her show does not prove that she does not watch the show.
It’s PR for RHOA season 7. Phaedra will also promote her book. They use to say, the first interview would go to Ellen, then Wendy. We will see Wendy and Bravo are back on good terms.
I hate how Wendy Williams had that fallout with Bravo. I don’t really care for WW, but she was a must watch on Mondays when she would do the Hot Topics on RHOA. Now she just shades Bravo and tells her fans why they shouldn’t watch because she’s ‘grown up’ and reality shows are trashy.
I really hope Ellen is not going to replace Bethany with the RHOA guests. My DVR is full and can’t take another recording.
Phaedra will go on Ellen and talk about how she believed a person’s past is their testimony not their future (excuse why she married a felon), she didn’t know anything about Apollo’s dealings, focused on raising two strong young boys and then wrap it up with something funny. Blah blah blah, ‘You’ll have to watch this season to see what really happened when Apollo was chasing me in the Season 7 Promo.’
@Katrina. I posted before I read your comment. WW is infamous for cutting people off. When she feels you have crossed her, she will passive aggressively shade you. Andy crossed her.
If WW has a RHOA guest on her show, I think it is good for business all around. I just can’t see it happening.
Andy and Wendy had a great relationship, until all the Bravo housewives started going to the Bethenny show. I don’t know if the situation can be fixed. Now Wendy pretends like she doesn’t watch. She may not watch, but she reads every blog about them. She knows everything that is going on with the show.
Yeah, but WW also said that she loved Kim’s show, and even though she didn’t think that she would like it, that she enjoyed Caroline’s new show too, because both are nice, lighthearted shows. I think she is just sick of the smutty shows on bravo.
You are right. She was favorable of Kim’s show. I have WW scheduled to record daily. I probably only watch one show a week and am too lazy to end the recordings. I always look at the synopsis to see who was on, though.
Do you agree that she used to have the cast of ATL, NY and NJ on regularly then all of a sudden cut them off? It’s not the same coverage.
The Ellen + Phaedra interview doesn’t sit right with me. I will have to watch it then pass judgement. [email protected]! Another show to record.
That’s because Andy screwed her by sending them all to Bethany’s show. Good for Wendy! She did a lot for those Bravo shows between always talking about them and having the hw’s on her show often. Why should she continue to support them after such a huge slap in the face? Plus, I believe her that she’s just over the hw’s (and similar type) shows. Had Andy not done what he did, maybe she would have still “pretended” to like the shows and have them on, but now she doesn’t have to.
I am still not convinced this will really happen. I can’t recall anyone but Nene being on Ellen previously. And Bethenny of course.
WW problem with Bravo is warranted. Bethenny stole WW booker and then Andy gave all the Bravolebs from WWHL to Bethenny instead of WW. Bethenny bombed and now WW can’t be bothered with Bravo. I don’t blame her.

And I don’t think that has much to do with the fact that BRAVO has become so rachet they are losing viewers. WW stopped watching the rachet shows like Basketball wives and love and hip hop ages ago. WW realizes, like I do, that she needs to build a new area of interest for her viewers. She trying to drag hers to Lifetime (she’s producing the Aliyah movie) and other networks. I’m trying to drag y’all to some of the better scripted shows. We both are trying to prepare a way to hold on to viewers when this reality bullshit finally ends. #Truth

THANK YOU! I am newish to this blog and was reading all this thinking “what happened between Andy/Bravo and Wendy? I must Google it…” but you saved me some time. That really sucks because I first saw Wendy on WWHL and loved her, and started DVRing her show. I loved her Bravo show recaps but I have noticed she talks less and less about them (she keeps saying she’s growing up!). I couldn’t wait to watch last Friday after the sentencing, and was shocked that she wasn’t prepared to cover it at all!!! She deferred to Monday when she could have a “legal expert” who turned out to be Vicky from the Bravo divorce show with some pretty lame coverage. I was thinking “this couldn’t have been arranged in advance for Friday…?” I did love what Wendy had to say about Tre/Joe not telling the kids about the sentencing yesterday, though. She does a great job at breaking down stupidity without hitting below the belt. Also speaking of good scripted shows, “Stalker” started on CBS last week and was really good, it’s on tonight at 10 EST. I thought the style was similar to Black List.
I think Wendy’s epic fail on the Giudice coverage was because the FRIDAY show was taped on Thursday because she had an appearance on The View that Friday. Also her “legal expert” was a TV divorce attorney. Said expert said that the FEDERAL SENTENCING LAWS are much harsher in Georgia than in NJ and that is why Apollo got more time. Never mentioned Apollo’s prior convictions compared to Joes…

Tamara, speaking for myself, I’ll be reading your blog forever, no matter what’s on TV.
Aw Thanks Mari Anne! I was just thinking the other day, how am I going to keep doing this for a couple more decades. lol

I checked Ellen’s site again and the schedule still stops on October 14th. For someone who is trying to seal themselves into their home behind fences and gates this makes no sense from her end either. A normal person would be trying to AVOID the media after one’s husband went to jail for stealing people’s retirement checks…

Human carnage has been a delight of folks since the beginning of recorded history. Fussing, fighting, feuding, slapping, stabbing, wig pulling, and tearing each other apart is ratings gold and always will be!
Most of WW Fan base watch her show mostly for the Hot Topic Segment, and the round table discussion she has on Hot Topics. I think she also has extended HT on Mondays. Although most of her tea might be served room temperature if not downright iced compared to my girl Tamara’s smoking hot variety. Her delivery is sarcastic , skewed, bias, personal, incorrect, ALL in a harmless, funny and entertaining way. AFTER WHICH she’ll ask the person in question to either call her or come on the Wendy show. Also lot of the folks in question she’s met in person from her radio days, or just being in “the business”.
The rest of the show sucks!
I posted a comment above with this link. http://s17948.p858.sites.pressdns.com/2014/02/14/the-new-york-city-talk-show-wars-wendy-williams-knocks-out-bethenny-frankel/ Sorry I should have read all the posts and posted at the end.
Also Nene Leakes in NOT scheduled for Ellen. But she is going to be on WWE RAW! Kidding not.

Ellen had RHOA on as a group when Kim and Sheree were on or are you saying this is the only time one has appeared by herself? I can’t imagine Phaedra participating in any of the games/contests.
She’s had Nene on. More than once even. But at the time Nene was on Glee. That just doesn’t make sense.

Interesting Tamara. Fingers crossed.
Ha! I almost would have to watch it to see. There’s no way she is actually wrestling. As ridiculous as WWE is, those chicks are incredibly athletic.
I cannot even imagine this. Of course as of now, Ellen’s website is only showing upcoming guests through the 14th. This is just too weird to be true, right?!? Surely Ellen is above this. I mean of all the housewives, Phaedra?!?
This is exactly what I was going to say. I just don’t get this booking.
Yeah, Phaedra just isn’t interesting enough, by herself, to be on a show like Ellen. She’s always in the background, filler, etc.
My blood is already starting to boil thinking about Phaedra. I hope she and Nene have minimal time.
Phaedra is disgusting for even putting on that black outfit. CASE CLOSED
Phaedra’s bigg azz is to much. Who at that age does not have cellulite and she’s has 2 children. She might have something pumped in her donkey donk azz. Lol
Excellent choice of photos.
Thanks. I was trying to promote her workout video. I’m sweet like that.

“The SHADE of it all!” In my latrice royale voice Lmao!
That outfit is far worse for her image than Apollo Nida and the trial. A true southern belle would not dress in such bad taste in public. That fishnet and thonged booty picture will haunt her forever.
Not that LAME workout video! TT you are a mess! LOL
Phaedra can really pull off the hoochie mama look.
She has no waist. Its like Teresa’s forehead.
I hope this is a mistake or a false rumor. Ellen does not have reality stars on her show very often, but she has had NeNe Leakes on as a past guest. With that said, I believe this is a move to promote season 7 of RHOA and hawk more faux Southern Belle novels. Ellen’s people realized during the Bethenny Frankle fiasco that a lot of viewers watch reality tv, and this could be an attempt to gain younger viewers. I hope Ellen’s ratings are still high because I like her a lot and hope she continues entertain us with her show.
I want Ellen to ask Phaedra who Mr. Chocolate is. That’d be fun.
This was probably all part of her masterplan to fix her image. Like very slowly separating Apollo, making him look like an abuser etc.
She probably went to the end of the earth and back trying to land this interview.
What will she be doing while on Ellen? Lie her ass off obviously.
I wont be watching because my neighbors dont like hearing me yell at the TV. Now that Apollo is safely tucked away in jail, Phaedra will be lying her ass off while doing her best demure innocent southern belle impersonation. UGHHHH!
“Why Ellen, I was as schocked as anyone….Yes, I am now raising the boys alone (cue the violins)…yes, this is my wonderful book”. I dont see Ellen asking any real tough questions or follow ups. Not her style.
Maybe Ellen is a big fan of Mrs. Nida’s humongous donkey ass in the black fishnet. After all, Ellen is gay so perhaps she wants to smack it and test Phaedra’s skills she’s heard about as the head doctor? Smh
Ellen is a softball interviewer and friend of Andy. She won’t be asked a single hard question.
If Phaedra could dispense with all the face-making, side-eyeing, mouth- twisting, wye-rolling, maybe it could be an interesting, or even fun, interview. Ah, who am I kidding?!
I love this picture! Lol. It is the answer to what a demure, refined Southern belle lawyer wears to the beach. Klassssy with a K!
Andy is good friends with Ellen? Ahhh, well then, now this makes more sense…softball questions all the way.
I’ve never heard of Andy being good friends with Ellen. In fact, Andy talks about how much he loves lesbians so much (while shading them) I don’t think he likes them any better than other women, which he clearly doesn’t like.
I totally agree.
I can’t imagine that anything about Phaedra or anything that Phaedra would have to say would interest Ellen’s guest bookers, or Ellen herself.
Maybe Phaedra’s agent made a patently false claim about Phaedra’s “pending appearance on Ellen” just to draw attention to Phaedra and her tour. That is about as close as I could image Phaedra ever being to Ellen; heck, even Ellen’s personal assistant.
I was very shocked to hear that she was scheduled to interview with Ellen.
I immediately went to Ellen’s website to protest..lol I don’t care if Phaedra makes a complete ass of herself on the Ellen’s show, I just refuse to accept her on any other platform than RHOA and I absolutely hate her there. She is one of the shadiest people I have every seen and does not deserve attention on national syndicated television.
Here is a comment that Chelsea Handler made on a Sirus radio interview this morning. This is what talk show hosts REALLY think of the housewives.
“I had reality stars on all the time, and I hate reality television,” she said. When the rocker pressed her for names, she admitted that she can’t stand Tila Tequila.
“Tila Teq-uila, is that her name?” Handler asked. “You know the girl who passed out masterbating or something. She’s gross.”
“I had to have all of these reality stars on my show at the beginning because I wasn’t established. It was E! and it was cheesy. Right then, I realized I had to take the show to a different level,” she added. “I had to interview the Housewives, and I hate that sh**.” – See more at: http://www.toofab.com/2014/10/08/chelsea-handler-dave-grohl-siriusxm-guests-she-hated-chelsea-lately/#sthash.cgjMpAdN.dpuf
Ellen is a Huge Fan of Rhoa the whole cast once was on her show during the lisa wu and sheree days so I believe it
If she was really a huge fan she’d have had them on more than she has.
She’s not a huge fan. Of any of them. Which will make this …awkward.
