It’s time for the whole Bethenny and Andrew Debacle. Bethenny was actually good at interviewing housewives on her show because she was appalled it had come to the point where she had to have them on. And she resented them; however, I don’t have very high expectations for this.
Q: Do you feel like you had a lot to do with the creation of housewives? Like were you there from the very beginning?
A: I was there from the very beginning with a very creative people at Bravo. When on season two, of RHOOC Jeanna and her husband began to divorce he knew it would be big.
Q: Do you honestly think that reality TV has contributed to so many of these breakups? (um, DUH)
A: I think it has accelerated marriages that weren’t working. He says he has talked to Tamra about it, he’s talked to Vicki… (He plays a scene of Tamra crying on WWHL telling him how much she has done for him. I’m vomiting a little in my mouth right now. As he seems to be saying these women are thanking him for destroying their families.) if they were in a relationship that wasn’t working, they somehow saw it replayed on TV and they were like “wow this is really bad! And they had a chorus of people saying ‘Dump him! Dump him!’ and they actually had the balls to do it. Wow. Andy is Sonja delusional.
Q. Who have you been the most wrong about on the housewives? And who have you been the most right about?
A: I was initially wrong about you because when I saw the first casting tape (which they showed, it was awesome ) I was reticent about you because you had been on The Apprentice, and I thought that was weird at the time. Isn’t that funny?
Conversation flows to Lisa Rinna who was on the first casting reel for Beverly Hills (FUCK! WE COULD HAVE BEEN WATCHING HER THIS WHOLE TIME!) Bethenny says she takes responsibility for Lisa Rinna being on because Bethenny has been advocating for her the whole time and Andy never wanted her. He says he didn’t want actresses on RHOBH, um Kim? Kyle? #eyeroll But now he likes her because she was fabulous.
Andy says he has been wrong a thousand times. He didn’t get Kim Zolciak on the first season of RHOA!!! He didn’t get her, she looked like this country star to him (translation, how would she fit in with all the ghetto pretend rich people he was trying to cast?) he was like…wait for it.. “We have this WHITE WOMAN??? What? I just didn’t get it.” We know Andy. You cast a show in the south without any input from ANYONE in the city about wealth, class, race relations in Atlanta, and so you wanted to do straight up ratchet black women. And you miscast a couple who were actually lovely women so you fired them (Lisa Wu, that Snow woman) and kept going until you got what you wanted.
While we are being racist, Bethenny says, we need a black woman on New York! I can’t with these people. Andy of course says,”100% we almost had an amazing black woman! (because that would be shocking. She was black and amazing? It’s like a unicorn!) Bethenny chimes in, “TWO OF “THEM”! One I was friends with!” Does no one there edit out these horrid conversations? Do people still talk like this in 2015? I can’t even recap this conversation.
Q: I think you should tell people what it takes to be a housewife because people say to me, “Why don’t they have this person, why don’t they have that person..like someone asked me why don’t they have an afr…I mean it’s harder than you think. ” It’s harder than you think to find a black housewife? Really? according to Andy, that is all there are in Atlanta. He doesn’t understand why there was a white one…
A: YES! To me the absolute key, and we have screwed up before, and we in theory didn’t get it right with Joyce and Carlton on Beverly Hills…. they would have been great housewives, I think the issue is they didn’t really have a natural connection to any of the women and I think a natural real connection first of all as a point of entry is super important which is part of the reason I think Dorinda is a great housewife. (UGH. Y’all keep saying that but I have yet to see it.) she has history with Ramona… Bethenny interrupts and says she had zero connection to any of the women when she came in first season. Andy says, that’s fine but first season is “diff” first season for whatever reason there were some that kind of had loose connections…but really… like Jill and Ramona had a connection…you and Jill knew each other briefly, (Bethenny says, briefly, you’re right) so there were light connections. You should check out Tamaratattles.com.
Q: Something about hating to hate and loving to hate on Bravo shows.
A: When you end a show, and you and I have talked about this and you have said, ….what about this person….there are people who we have …ah … ended our relationship with.. who we have found that the viewers… if you… some people they love to hate… and it’s… they’re a thorn in their side but they say, would I watch the show without them? Maybe not… (Oh Andrew you are so confused about who those people are, I know you think they are Nene and Tamra and Brandi but trust, we would love if they were gone.)
But there are people that they hate to hate and which means it’s not fun. When this person comes on it’s not fun for the viewers….IF ONLY ANDY REALIZED WE HATE TO HATE NENE FUCKING LEAKES. He could save himself a lot of money. I don’t believe any of what he is saying right now or else he is very deluded. On the other hand maybe he is right. I have to throw idiots in the window licking section here at TamaraTattles.com all the time because they hate every post I make and everyone on every show I discuss. AND THEY WILL NOT GO THE FUCK AWAY ON THEIR OWN. I hate most blogs and my time is limited so I go to the ones where, oh I dunno, I actually have something in common with the blogger.
Bethenny talks about how polarizing she is. Andy says that she can be a real bitch but one second later she can be really funny and then you are really vulnerable. (which is why my position changes on Bethenny all the time).
Q: What has been the biggest conflict behind the scenes for you ( I paraphrase)
A: It’s Jersey. And it’s so many layers of “if she’s on I won’t” and … Bethenny says, “… and they mean it and they have leverage because you need these cast members…” Andy says the real backstory has been told many times incorrectly about when Melissa was cast and when Teresa knew. There are fragments of what has been out there. I don’t think Teresa certainly cared for them to have been on the show. (Bethenny chimes in with “I agree” as if she has all the tea. yet no one is spilling.) Andy says they both have such wildly different stories and somewhere in between is the truth. REALLY? Teresa is in fucking prison and RHONJ is just hanging there… and you can’t tell us the truth on a story from five fucking years ago because you want to discuss the two really amazing black women you almost had on RHONY and then had to reabsorb the old cast again? OK.
Q: Which housewife and which housewife’s husband would you most like to sleep with of all of the franchises if you had to pick one of each?
A: I think for men….I always learn toward Apollo. Andy says to Bethenny, “I know you’ve never been with a black guy, but the time has come” They both laugh. I feel like I don’t live in the same world with these people. I live in the deep south and we even have people from ….hold on to your hat… OTHER COUNTRIES in my family… Is this lack of interracial interactions a rich people thing? IDGI.
For his female choice, Andy says, “You know what? I think I might say Joanna Krupa.” Bethenny points out that his choices are superficial which is what I was going to say in much meaner terms. Andy is all like ,”duh.” At least he knows he is superficial I mean seriously, he picks the felon and the alleged prostitute. Even if those were your choices if you were on national TV or on tamaratattles.com wouldn’t you say like, oh maybe Maurico because he is hot and successful and smart then since you are gay and friends with Bethenny just pick her, because she is hot and successful and smart? I mean sure a turn on Apollo and/or Joanna might be fun for some people but do you really want to um, go there?
Q: What housewife has emailed you the most?
A: Clearly we are not going to get a real interview here. Bethenny wants him to expound on the fact that Jill Zarin emailed him like a lunatic. And Andy says probably Bethenny because they are friends (or however he couched it) and you know the RHONY, Jill emailed me a lot… the Countess.. Ramona…
Q: Bethenny’s long winded question is about how he tries not to show favoritism BWAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHHA on reunions and how there is more push back from the women, cut to the clip of Ramona telling him she is not discussing her divorce because she has a child and asking him who he is going to have sex with tonight and him responding with, “I’ll tell you when I am on a reality show with someone I am sleeping with.”
A: Attention people who copy my transcripts and do not give me credit. You should be very careful and read material that is proprietary to TamaraTattles.com Bethenny prattles on and the question ends up being about does he care when the housewives “give him heat.”
Andy says no, because as you know… about the pajamas …..(reference is to Bethenny in her four year old’s hello Kitty PJs) and how is she too skinny, it’s all such bullshit. Then he says he does care because the OC women email him all the time and he wants to let them know it was misconstrued? The reunion shows are misconstrued? Like weren’t they all sitting there together?
Okay, I’ve been typing about this shit show for like two hours now. I am starting to nod off. WTF are they talking about? Does he care when they come after him or not? Does he care when he says shady shit and it hurts their feeling are not? He is not answering. . He basically says he pokes at everyone. BULLSHIT. He licks Vanderpumps asshole.
Bethenny basically says she did not need to come back for the money. Oh really. So why? But she thinks Sonja needs the money so she outs Sonja for emailing her about how she is coming off. She told Sonja she is working and if you aren’t controversial you aren’t doing your job. Bethenny wants us to know she is not like the women on the show that need a paycheck.
Q: I don’t know if it is the beer or what, but I don’t understand the secret language between these two. It’s like they speak a secret twin language. Bethenny seems to be asking if he feels under the gun by a housewife when another one trashes them on WWHL.
A: Andy says, he had a situation where Dr Dubrow trashed Bethenny on the show. Bethenny’s spine suddenly got rigid and she sat up two inches in her seat. Don’t believe me just watch! SIDE NOTE OMG! I THINK I HAVE INTERNET! But I shall carry on on Wordpad at 1 am. They play the clip and all Dr. Dubrow said was Bethenny needs to gain some weight. He hardly “trashed her.” Andy saw Bethenny tweeting after that episode and he was all worried BECAUSE HE HAS THIS NEED TO BE LIKED . Or as he put it “I have got to get clean with this one.” #EYEROLL Bethenny giggles. They talk about Twitter wars and how Andy immediately texted Bethenny so she would still love him.
Then he points out that she tweeted that now that Nene is a “rich bitch” she can’t respond to her emails. OH PLEASE GOD NOE. NOE. NOE. NOE. Do not let these two get together. Or maybe I want them too because Bethenny will realize that Nene doesn’t know what the fuck she is doing.
Wow Andy says, regarding idiots on Twitter, that when Jersey is on, they are impossible and he kind of wants the season to be over. He says, talk to Caroline Manzo, who he likes about how brutal they are. It’s awful for him. Andy does read his tweets and I IMPLORE you do not include me in tweets to people from Bravo you like or don’t like. It makes my job so much harder. Thanks in advance.
LOL Andy talks about the Tre-huggers. So funny didn’t I start that? Maybe not. He says that there were some dark days… with regard to Teresa fans harassing him. They move on to Brandi and her whackadoodle fans. Bethenny says “she’s polarizing” a word she used to describe herself, last year when I started this post, so I assume she wants to keep her. She likes Nene too. And Andy is like um, yeah. (I think Brandi is fired).
Dear God I could have multiplied the earth and cured cancer in the amount of time this is taking me to recap. Eons have passed. Civilizations have crumbled… and I am still fucking recapping this godforsaken fuckfest between Bethenny and Andy that reveals less than an episode of REAL HOUSEWIVES OF WHERE THE FUCK EVER SECRETS REVEALED!
Q: What was your greatest housewives moment ever?
A: I am at this point completely prepared with barf bucket for… meeting you my pookie wookie dream girl. I’m sorry I hated you when you were poor but now that you can buy me 20 times over I find you so fasicnating and polarizing….
He says it is just an absurd moment that defines the entire operation. Well that would be letting Nene Leakes ask you if she wanted you to throw you a gay pride parade and kiss your ass. But he says it was the season one Atlanta reunion when I asked Kim Zolciak about her having cancer and she went into some crazy story about sitting in the parking lot of Chili’s (too many details) about waiting for cancer results and it turned out she did not have cancer. He says that the RHONY reunions are the ones where he is internally laughing the most. Because they are absurd.
Then there is the requisite mutual ass kissing and it’s over.
I’m really not into the Bethenny and Andy love fest. This interview could have been really interesting if there was at least one iota of candid question/response interaction.
As I watched this ‘interview’ I realized afresh as to why Bethenny’s talk show was canceled. It seemed like half the time, they were communicating telepathically and she wasn’t really asking questions, more like grappling with how to ask the question, and somehow he managed to catch on to her brain wave.
It’s a little known secret – Bethenny and Andy are the same person!
Well, he’s so far up her derriere, you could almost imagine it.
I thought it was the beer and the lateness of the hour. I am glad to hear y’all were lost too. It was literally like they were doing some kind of mind meld shit and we were just witnesses.

She gives an interview like Brandi-she’s seems more interested in talking about herself then interviewing her guests, “So lets talk about you now, what do you think of meeeeee”.
Exactly!!
She doesn’t need the money, yet she went on and on the first 2 episodes about being “homeless”? Um, OK.
She doesn’t need the money. She wants the exposure and product placement more than anything else in this world. Otherwise, she would just remove herself from reality TV, and focus on raising her daughter, running her business empire, and living her life.
Yes. I know.
The constant product placement is ridiculous-Btw, did you see she even painted the trim of her Hampton’s home red?
It seemed like she was asking him questions so she could talk about her self.
I agree! Bethenny loves herself so much!!!!
Wow. That sounds like it was pretty bad. Two people who look like they’re having a conversation, but they’re really just taking tuns soliloquizing. I didn’t watch this, as I rely on Tamara’s observations for a number of shows. But I get the feeling that watching this alleged interview was like being the third wheel at a dinner date. The two friends talk and you just sit there, half listening, staring into space, checking your phone, eating your fucking salad ( I would be afraid to order anything else dining with people like Andy and Bethenny, cause they’re so judgmental about food), and waiting for it all to finally end.
No food allowed. Only cocktails.
Seriously. You’d have to be drunk.
It would be fun to shock them and order real food. Like a bacon cheeseburger with onion rings and chili cheese fries as a side dish. And wash that down with a candy bar milk shake. And then order dessert! They’d probably piss themselves. Ha ha!
Just remember, you can taste everything, but eat nothing.
“alleged interview” …that was funny, and somehow more adequate for what it really was. Allegedly 🙂
Can we discuss the fact that this interview was posted in full on the Bravo website months ago? It was ridiculous for Andy to keep hyping it like it was a brand-new explosive interview.
Does this mean he’s actually vacationing somewhere, or was stuck trying to get back from vacation somewhere?
Yeah, when Andy said he’d probably go for Apollo, that was a record-scratch moment for me. Really Andy? Ewwww.
I mean, Apollo is definitely a good-looking guy, but his personality is such that it counteracts any sexiness his looks may provide. Also, I can’t with the stupid. Maybe you’ve known someone like that.
There are so many other candidates to choose from (that have been well-discussed here on TT before) I’m just shaking my head. And Joanna? Yes, she *is* stunning, in a very generic, plastic way. I guess the saying, “Way down deep, he’s very superficial” applies, but really, that’s too clever for Andy.
He just went for the safe choices. Andy, you disappoint me so.
I felt like this was a throw away question (among the others) that brought absolutely no added value to the interview. Its a waste of time and space, and frankly I find it rather gauche.
Andy’s not having sex with them for their functioning brain cells.
This was like two people that talk to each other all the time and have run out of important things to say or ask and answer. Because they have. I wonder if Andy’s prepared questions, supposedly from viewers, would have been better. Bethanny chose to go with her own list.
So is Phaedra Gonna start calling Andy a whore for admitting he wouldn’t mind banging her huzzzzbanddd? Oh the irony. Everyone on the plant thinks Apollo Is physically attractive.
He was kind of phine before he went asunder.
Oh gawd “asunder” still makes me laugh.
The word “whore” has become like what Dave Chapelle said about the word “crazy”. It’s used to either dismiss someone or render them harmless if you consider them a threat. That’s what Phaedra’s was doing to Kenya.
I’m so sick of the word, “Bitches”. In 51 years I’ve never heard any of my friends use the word (unless it was behind someone’s back. lol). I just don’t find it a term of endearment.
Yeah, I know. It’s getting worse though. Now “ho” has become a term of endearment right along with “bitch”. How the fuck did that shit happen? What’s next? It’s fucking Orwelian.
Apollo is not unattractive. No. But there’s something about him that I just can’t get into. Like I’ve said before, I can’t fuck with stupid. Literally. Apollo’s “juvial” ass is just not my cup of tea. If I had to pick any house husband: Vince from BH. He seems very cool and witty. The silver medal goes to: Peter from Atlanta. Don’t shoot! I like Peter’s vibe. And it looks like he and Cynthia really are good friends. Bronze medal: A younger version of Ken from BH. Also witty and smart and supportive. And he’s English! I’m a bit of an Anglophile.
Well, he seems quite psychopathic to me so, that is a big turn off.
Minky, I’m with you about Peter. I liked looking at Roman from the Miami cast, too.
Yeah, he was very handsome. And I forgot Kroy too. Hubba hubba, zing zing! Honey, he’s got everything! (Got that from Rose on the Golden Girls)
This interview was just another example of know-it-all, rich bitch Bethenny doing her thing. She fancies herself to be an expert interviewer who has all the tea about everyone and is not afraid to be rude, lewd and crude.
When I see that fucking Hamptons mansion of hers and watch her boss her high end NY apartment designer around like she’s a mafia boss and then listen to her pitifully cry like a little girl about being homeless, I just want to puke. I mean.seriously.
I don’t think her therapy is doing her much good. I see no improvement.
Ha, that shrink of hers hasn’t done much good, has he, but then I wonder if any therapist could make progress with someone with a history and a personality like Bethany’s.
I brought along “The Andy Cohen Diaries” with me on vacation as lite reading material. I made it as far as May 2014, I think, before I bailed on it.
In the book, he mentions that Bethenny pitched to him the idea of “Bethenny Starting Over” as a standalone show right around the time he knew RHONY needed help and he wanted to beg her to come back.
I wonder if “WWHL: Bethenny Turns the Tables” was one of the concessions (along with the wall-to-wall-to-wall SkinnyGirl placements and the crapload of $$ I’m sure Bravo paid her) to coming back to RHONY.
Interesting. As much as she hates the attention, she can’t get enough of the attention. She claimed to LOVE doing the talk show and then later said she hated it. Then pitched another show ASAP. “Bethenny Starting Shit” would be more appropriate.
I would love to have been a fly on the wall during her break-up with Jason. I don’t want to see him as a goldigging dick, like she’s trying to portray him. I thought he always treated her pretty well on camera and let’s face it, she’s a nut job to have to put up with on a daily basis. You could get tired of her brand of crazy real quick.
Jason doesn’t appear to say a word, bad, good, or indifferent while she continues to slice him up into little tiny pieces.
I’m still team Jason and think he is perfectly within his rights to ask for a shit ton of money.
I am surprised that Bethenny is as hands on with her kid as she is. I was worried she would not be able to bond with her. Glad to see she has.

Totally agree, Tamara.
Jason deserves a big, fat payout. He is the one who brokered that sale. I remember that specifically.
Bethenny wanted that to be her baby, but she opened herself up by allowing him to become involved with the business.
There seem to be a lot of double standards when women are the ones with the money.
#TeamJason
@Pip, but did he REALLY? Or was that a RHONY storyline? I’m team Bethenny. Jason seems like a gold digger to me.
The interview itself was not that exposing, in my opinion. But there were a few interesting points (no surprise to me that the NJ fans are the most rabid… The NJ housewives bring out the rabid in everyone).
However, when Andy answered Apollo (huh?!) and that Joanna chick were his shag choices, all I could do was picture Tamra Barney at home crying in her pillow and throwing the remote at her television. I remember her attacking his mouth at a New Years party broadcast once. I mean, she rammed her tongue down his throat. He was so stunned and taken aback by that (although later he claimed to enjoy it… Yeah, right). I think Tamra Barney has always wanted to be his number one. Remember when she had her breast implants removed and brought them to the clubhouse? Andy’s poll was “Should we keep Tamra’s breast implants here in the Bravo Clubhouse”? The results were like 80% NO. Heh heh. I loved that moment. She looked flabbergasted. Like she couldn’t believe we all didn’t love her silly, kookiness.
I really hate Tamra Barney.
God, me too.
I hate her too. I wish they had turned her in at the Bali Airport lost and found. No one would claim her.
I thought Andy would go for Eddie.
When I think of her, I think of scrunched up kohl rimmed eyes and hear a screaming voice.
Absolutely. Tamra is so over the top and exaggerated in her interactions. Evidently she is oblivious to the fact that she is an incredibly poor actress. Sooooo artificial and very disingenuous in her responses, when confronted. Pavlovian response when I see her on the screen, except no salivating at the sound of the bell, just fast forwarding when I hear her voice ……
I think they ALL secretly want to be his #1.
Tamara is trashy.
I am kinda trashy.

Bethenny asked and answered most of the questions. I’ve watch the short clips on YouTube of Andy being interviewed by other housewives and I really enjoyed them all. But this was a let down.
I watched and kept rewinding and FF and 2 hours later still sat there like WHAT DID YOU SAY??? I got he hates Tre and loves Bethany and BG is fired? Also he’s racist as fuck but doesn’t see it. Kinda like LVP thinking her housekeeper lives high on the horse simply because they breathe the same air type thing. I’m so utterly confused yet utterly unbothered by my confusion.
This was hard to watch, but of course, I watched the whole damn thing. They literally made zero sense. I don’t get his love for Tamra. She’s about as horrible as they come.
Also, I agree. Brandi is definitely fired.
The thing with the way Bethenny talks is that she’ll ask a question and somehow simultaneously make it clear that she’s not really interested in the answer and only pretends to listen. Aaaaaaargh! I hate when people do that!
I didn’t watch it, Thanks for the recap.
I agree with you I don’t get the love for Dorinda either, I don’t see what she has brought to the show yet maybe it’s still coming? Idk
I like how she told John to “Back that shit up and back it up right now. Got it?” I actually used this line last night on my big mouth asshat of a huzzband and it felt REAL good. He even answered, “Yeah.” Hahaha
Just because Jason didnt create any of the products doesnt mean anything. Also he helped get the factory production up. Like a real factory manager. That makes him half owner. If I worked for a mom and pop company I would be entitled to half the company for working with a factory to step up production.
Andy is very shallow. He thought Apollo looked like a hot lay. I think Mauricio is hot and so is Shannon’s hubby. Now that I know Apollo…ewww. Then again I used to think he was cute before I knew he was stealing from old people. I always laugh at TT’s posts but her Apollo posts were hilarious and would make me cry with laughter.
Bethany said she doesn’t need the money yet I remember her saying this season that she was in financial trouble ( I can’t recall her exact words).
I also read that she settled with “Raw Talent” which I’m guessing was a huge chunk of money.
Throw in taxes, an unknown number of other lawsuits, divorce expences and what appears to be her extravagant spending which IMO all add up to her financial trouble making sense.
Question:
I remember Bethany this season saying she owns the “Skinny Girl” product line. I recall on one of her spinoff seasons when she made her multimillion deal her selling her “Skinny Girl” ownership rights with the stipulation she would stay on with the company as a consultant. Does anyone know anything more about this?
Bethenny sold the Skinny Girl booze line, and remained on as a consultant and brand ambassador. She still owns the Skinny Girl non booze products.
Yes. Yes we do.

OMG could Andy get any further up Bethany ‘ s a$$. They were all kiss kiss schmooze big headed egos. What, they’re just now realizing all the black housewives don’t have to live in Atlanta? I do miss Joyce, Lisa Wu and deshawn Snow. Phaedra must be somewhere eye rolling after Andy said he’d go for Appollo!
This interview is a total living proof of why and how Bethenny lost her own talk show. She doesn’t know how to listen to others. Everything has to be around her, which pretty much reminded me of Tyra Banks.
Worst Interviewer. Ever.
Even though you hated recapping this, you did a brilliant job. Your interpretations are freaking spot-on. Lisa Vanderpump or Brandi should do these interviews with Andy because they both make him stick to answering the question, or call him out on his crap.
Upon seeing the promos for this I knew it wasn’t anything I’d really find interesting. I’ve seen better Ask Andy videos. If Andy is really going to be interviewed why not bring in his friends Willie Geist or Anderson Cooper? They’re his friends but they also successfully conduct interviews. I’m not interested in seeing any Bravolebrity interview him. I’d rather see someone like Kevin Frazier fromEntertainment Tonight interview him.
Glad I fell a sleep during the interview, would rather read Tamara Tattle’s updates, then watch the show, most of the time anyway! Have a nice day everyone!
So cheesy. I wonder if BF EVER comes up for air. She. Just. Can’t. Stop. Talking. And fast. The mind meld going on was too much for me.
Exactly. When she walks into a room with other people or somebody new arrives, she starts with the quips . . .at the top of her lungs. . .she has a manic need need to be “on” and noticed by everyone, even though she would probably deny that.
The nice BD party Jason threw for her sent her into a panic attack crying in the bathroom. She throws herself a party and she’s twerking on the dining table and screaming at the top of her lungs insisting everyone else make asses of themselves, too, because it’s her birthday and they must obey. Which psycho is the real Bethenny?
A couple of years back my friends got a group of about 70 guys together as part of group marching in a parade through the French Quarter. The Group name was The Million Mrs Roper March. Everyone dressed in Mrs. Roper style including, wigs, footwear, gouche jewelery and loudly patterned mumus. Whenever I watch Bethenney I can’t help but think she’s a lot like those mumus really loud with way way too much going on all at once. Sometimes I just want to yell slow the eff down at the tv at her.
Wonky Tonk – Oh dear Lord now I want to find pictures of this.
Do a search on The Million Mrs. Roper March. There’s video. The guys holding the banner are the one’s who organized it.
Please do NOT EVER. *EVER!* Disrespect Mrs. Roper here again.
Also, could you send me the muumuus?

That is fucking awesome! Also, if I had a muumuu, I doubt I would ever where regular clothes again.
Pip the only redeeming quality of Ross Dress for Less stores is they have $10 muumuus. Sadly, lately they are no all cotton anymore. But they are WILDLY inapprorpriate..(read fun) and they may be $12 by now. They are usually in the outer rack of the dress section and one size fits fat. 🙂

They loved us and drowned us out in cheers the entire route. This year it’s little Orphan Annie.
Nene is not one we love to hate, that’s for sure. She’s miserable and detracts from the show as far as I’m concerned. Completely unenjoyable. However, she does have a large fan base, most of which can’t read or write coherently.
OMG Yoya, yesterday a window licker tried to post a virtual PRAYER to Nene in broken ebonics. I came THIS CLOSE to sharing it in Daily Tea and then I decided it was more sad than funny. Some of her “fans” write TO her here… It’s creepy and sad.

Kim, Brandi and Nene for me have out stayed their time.
Something ugly has happened to all of these women.
You know you are sick of Bethenny when you start thinking that her so called bad childhood is comparable to Avivas never ending lost leg psychosis. Enough already. Stop with the obsessing and blaming everything, especially your own personality faults on it. Enough already. Put your big girl panties on. Move on and focus on the positivE. You have way more than many who complain a lot less. Sick of the whining and blaming it all on her mommy and daddy issues. Its a waste of our screen time. Yuck. Cut the crap And arrested developmen. Wait, that’s probably why she and andy get along so well.
Wouldn’t it be Andy’s Ultimate F.U. if Brandi was fired and replaced with Joanna Krupa? 🙂
IF the only way to get rid of Brandi is to replace her with Joanna Krupa, my vote would be to keep Brandi. With Kim gone, Brandi would probably be less despicable. Her manipulation of Kim last season was beyond appalling and will likely cost her, her spot.

If vshe returns, I’m sure Brandi will barnacle onto someone else when Kim is unavailable – it seems to be her MO to single one HW out, latch on, leech until she’s caught and/or drain them emotionally and then move on to her next target
How much was Bethenny worth when her and Jason signed the prenup? Wouldnt that amount be in the court documents? I know by that point she had been on celebrity apprentice, martha stewart, written 4 bestselling books etc. She was working on a variety of skinnygirl products but sold the the alcohol piece of it. Does anyone know??
You don’t get paid for Celeb Apprentice. And she did not have four books. So even what “you know” is wrong. He $ at that point was from RHONY. She sold the margarita while filming the show WITH JASON.

I stand corrected. There were 2 books and 1 dvd. I think A place of Yes was when they were dating. Others books were after. How much is she worth in the prenup and will we be getting any tea on the divorce?
Maybe this weekend. I’ve sort of been ignoring all the prenup stuff.

IIRC, none of the sites I saw discussing the prenups showed the actual documents and the original site was of a dubious nature. 🙂

Well this is odd. My fault for falling into the trap of believing what I see on the show is reality. My experience with Bethenney is relegated to this season on the show. I haven’t watched before. After watching The Real Housewives of New York I wasn’t a Bethenney hater or anything but let’s just say she wasn’t one of my favorites way too frenetic for me. After watching that interview she does of Andy I found I kind of like her. She comes off much more relaxed with actual friends, something I sort of noticed when she had lunch with her real friend in Miami.
I can’t decide if I like Bethenny or not. I don’t have strong feelings either way (despite the fact she thinks she is polarizing). When it comes to Bethenny, sometimes I feel like a nut, sometimes I don’t. But Almond Joy wins by a small margin.

Maybe that is a good thing. It would be a lot of pressure being the ‘star’ of the show. She certainly isn’t the villain.
I thought you didnt like her and said you are team Jason. I go back and forth on her too…
