Lisa Vanderpump’s Vlog on Vanderpump Rules this week is..amusing.
Hi. I’m Lisa Vanderpump and welcome to my video blog.
Why do you keep saying this? IDGI
I have a panic attack every time I go into the building site and see what I have to accomplish.
No. No you do not. You get overwhelmed at the thought of building a new business. That is not a panic attack. If you had ever had a panic attack you would not make such patently stupid statements about them.
Life is about overcoming your panic attacks, not running away from them. I really feel for Katie when I see this interaction between her and Schwartz, because it’s not just about the job. It’s about the fact that maybe he’s never going to grow up, and he’s never going to commit to anything. And I think this was really a moment of realization for her.
Come now, he seems pretty committed to Jax. Speaking of Jax, why do you overlook all of his character flaws?
What I actually don’t understand when I see Jax vulnerable and lying on his back with his broken nose — why does that make Tom Schwartz cry? I mean, it’s an incredibly complicated relationship, and one that I’m not quite getting.
Perhaps one of the staffers at PUMP could explain it to you. Ask your host. Or any number of the clientele. It should be obvious.
You can give Jax enough drugs to send him to sleep, to shut down his brain, but to shut down his libido — you’re going to need something stronger.
How much extra pay did you ask for in order for you to agree to go to Korea town?
It’s funny. It’s ironic. I see Stassi laughing, knowing that Jax has had his nose reset. I mean the doctor could have called Stassi in for her help, because I do believe that she has broken his nose before.
What’s funny? What’s ironic?
I got dropped off at Rolls Royce, so I was counting on Max for a ride. I just didn’t expect it to be on his skateboard. It’s a very strong message I always send to my kids. I’ll cover the basics, but if they want something extra, then they’ve got to work for it. Work more shifts. Do it the way I did it, through sheer hard work. Do it the way Ken did it — two jobs at a time.
There is nothing believable in this paragraph. You couldn’t drive to the Rolls place? Or take a Bravo car? We’re supposed to believe that you are unaware that you kid has a skateboard, or that his car was in the shop? Or that he wasn’t provided a loaner? Or that Max works for things? Is he going to work on a skateboard?
Stassi doesn’t seem to understand that sometimes letting go of the anger is a gift to yourself. She just keeps going on with the fact that it’s better for everybody to be at war, but life isn’t like that. Stassi should be careful that she doesn’t just put herself on a remote island, because some times that island can get very lonely.
I know someone who lives on an island with a moat and a pair of swans that were gifts from a man who is not her husband. She doesn’t seem lonely.
Thank you for watching. I’m Lisa Vanderpump and I hope you enjoyed watching my video blog.
Actually, I didn’t watch. I just read the transcript. But really, what is the point of signing off like a newscaster. I bet if I did see your Vlog I could watch eyeballs track the cue cards. No mention of Scheana? After all that testifying she did for you in court, it would seem you would be singing her praises each week.
On point, TT. Except for ostensibly providing PR for SUR, what does this show do for Lisa? She is capitalizing on the immaturity and lack of decorum of her employees both in and out of their work at SUR. In my mind, I see that restaurant being run by a bunch of skanky misfits. I don’t think that’s the impression she hoped viewers would come away with but I guess the ratings are good. What more can she say? She tried to sound interested in those losers but…fail.
Lol u just reminded me of my guy he said the same thing about Lisa & her profiting off of her skanky employees, using them for the very little they’re worth…he also went on to impersonate her reveling in the realization that Jax & Kristen had banged and that it was RATINGS GOLD like an evil witch of sorts lol
By the way Tamara I would like to commend you on your response to her “panic attacks” comment. Not everyone takes this topic seriously, and I myself have witnessed countless people saying they have “panic attacks” I find it VERY disrespectful when they use this term so flippantly. After watching Lisa V these past years, I can assure people that this woman does NOT suffer from any anxiety disorders so she needs to have several seats. It’s annoying when people say they had a panic attack when all they had was stress, it’s very different. Good job!!
Thanks. I know the WTF of a panic attack all too well. I’ve abandoned my grocery carts mid shop…

I like Lisa best when I just see her being fabulous on tv and dont know about all the unbecoming aspects of her real life!
I’d rather look better with a magnifying lens then just have a shiny facade. I’ve reached the point where I take her for what she is
me too!
We would have liked her so much!
But for the facts that she is a piece of shit.
But, um pretty closet Full of stupid shirts with fake diamonds.
she’s dumber than Nene.

Those shirts with the crystals were ridiculous. Think I bought something similar at Delia’s years ago when my daughters were younger. All of Lisa’s shots have turned into commercials promoting her jeweler, her tailor, her car dealer…it’s never ending and uninteresting.
Poor Giggy gets stuffed in the same fugly shirts. 🙁

Her real views: Thanks for watching, dahlings. Makes me more famous. Go about your middle-class lives.
Like I said, Lisa and all her fucked up servers are unwatchable. There is no way human beings with so-called normal emotions could possibly care about these creepy people. This includes Lisa, the employer of waiters and waitresses that would be fired in any other situation on earth, but allegedly she is so inextricably involved in their tawdry little lives that she can’t possibly just fire them all and get some new decent creepy crawlers with different problems. The entire premise of the show is ludicrous. Stassi, ewww, Tom, ewwww, Schaena, ewww, Jax, triple ewwww and Lisa, the ewwww master.
Its a tv show. Not real life.
No shit, Twilly. It’s a tv show presented as real life and we all know reality shows are not real life. However, the plot of this so-called reality show is particularly absurd. I’ve never even watched it for more than a minute or two and I know almost everything about it. Somebody screwed somebody else’s boyfriend, girlfriend husband or dog and somebody did something to mess up Stassi’s birthday again this year, boo, hoo, hoo. Everyone did something to screw up Lisa’s business and it’s OK because she understands they’re young. Gag Award.
Who gave Lisa her swans?
Mohamed
Oh well, he wouldn’t bat an eye at a woman over 35.
Anyone besides me hear the alleged rumors of Lisa allegedly hooking up with someone other than Ken allegedly? Naw. They are too in lurrve…
She has time to be hooking up with someone else?? I don’t even know if she has time for ken!
Love this!! Somebody who wrote everything I’ve been thinking like since I first started watching finally!!
I typically start to watch an episode of Vanderpump Rules, though about 1/3 to 1/2 of the way through, I switch to watch something else, anything else. I switch, because I find that VR’s portrayal of youth is cynical and dark, and because of their darkness and cynicism, they aren’t entertaining or likeable; disturbing if this is more typical than not of their generation.
Lisa Vanderpump, the business maven, isn’t very likeable. Her vulgar word play, which she intended to be funny, is just vulgar.
I once like(d) Lisa most of all, because she is intelligent, well spoken, appears to be kind, generous, and is loyal to whomever she loves, including her friends and select employees. She seems to be well-intended, and practical. But I find her business persona to be off-putting, especially her vulgar word play.
I suspect that seeing too much of Lisa plays a good part in my increasing indifference. Indifferent instead of dislike, because I don’t much care for or dislike any of the other cast members. Given my ‘druthers’, I’d rather see “Vanderpump Rules” go to the trash heap, and just see Lisa on RHOBH to cure my case of VOB (aka “Vanderpump Overexposure Burnout”.)
Exactly right!
OMG. I just tried to recap Vanderpump Rules… and I was like, I am so sick of Lisa’s closet. The WOW factor has gone to “really, again?” And now when I see the swans, I don’t think it’s cool anymore, I just remember teaching at a school that had a goose problem. Let’s just say it was a shitty job in so many ways.

I don’t know how you could stand watching it all on a repeated basis to recap, Tamara … I kid you not, I am sick and tired of VR and of the contrived, petty, lowbrow, libido-driven drama.
Pardon me, but who gives a flying fuck that Jax, the womanizing, mysogynistic, Sur-supply-stealing thief, gets a nose job, and why would Lisa ever show up at his flat for ANY reason to offer that cry-baby prick with ears (and a new nose) any support or sympathy? He’s her kind of people?! He’s a valuable cast member? If so, that says a lot about the caliber of VR, and how low Lisa will stoop for the sake of her show.
You’re tired of Lisa’s closet, and I’m tired of Lisa trying trying to pass herself off as the patron saint of wait staff and South American domestic servants. (I’m thinking right there are a couple of reasons why your work is work.)
Yes, Lawd. . .tell it, hunni!
I agree on all points. Something is just really wrong here, and I can’t put my finger on it. I don’t get the hold she has over Stassi, and why Stassi seems to think she owes Lisa indentured servitude for the rest of her life. The implication is that the show might not succeed without Stassi… which might be true. Lisa pulled Stassi back into a situation that probably is not healthy for her (not to mention the even weirder implication that by leaving Stassi had wronged her (lisa) somehow)and Stassi’s instinct to move on with her life in a different place was probably very healthy. She has the same power over Kyle, apparently…Kyle just canNOT let go of Lisa though it seems Lisa cares little for her in a deep way. I suppose Kyle might want to be Lisa, and the closest she can come is proximity? Lisa seems to have some weird cult of personality about her, like a Hollywood Kim Jong Il or something. And she does like to involve herself in the lives of all her staff while simultaneously pretending that they are dragging her into their problems and she’s beyond bothered with keeping them straight. It is such a bizarre dynamic to watch. I think Brandi realized this and kind of rebelled against the Lisa worship but now finds herself out in the cold somewhat. It becomes more obvious with each episode that Lisa was trying to get the Brandi/Scheanna/Eddie storyline on camera in anyway that she could from the very beginning, she definitely ‘loves things and uses people’ so to speak, but she is so well-mannered, British, and graceful about her machinations that it is undetectable how steely-hearted she is.
