First of all, where is Meghan in this photo? She flew back from Vietnam and Cambodia and says she fainted on the flight home. But, she did tweet an hour ago that the was ready headed to the reunion. Shouldn’t she already be there in hair and makeup? God I hope she is late, that really pisses Andy off, and I really want him to be pissy with her. But he won’t because he is love where her husband whose sexual orientation has often been discussed.
I have started at least three posts this week about the Brooks and Vicki drama and just deleted them. One particular website that sorta rhymes with “My Gaydar Works Fine” has been pumping out a string of completely made up stories that Vicki and Tamra have been calling them out on all week. While I appreciate the confirmation that the site’s information is fabricated, I wish they would not keep giving that site free publicity.
In the meantime, Vicki’s Instagram and Twitter line are full of hateful comments, not just about the Brooks situation but about her looks, and her parenting skills and just about everything you can imagine. Brooks’ social media accounts are even worse calling him every thing in the book about things not related to cancer or the show. Just so much vile behavior. I was thinking today when I was writing the story about Andy Cohen and Tori Spelling that this nastiness on social media and websites is very emotionally draining to read and write about all day long. I really try to keep the comments here a very toned down version of all the crap that is posted everywhere. I wish we could attack BEHAVIOR rather than people or their looks. I am often accused of not posting differing opinions, and that is true. I do not want to propagate “opinions” where people want to accuse people of faking illness. I do not understand why that is even a thing. He’s a newsflash, I delete a lot of comments about Meghan that I think take it too far. There are people who want to make comments with threats against, Meghan, or Vicki, or Brooks or Shannon that are just not going to be posted here.
I really want this storyline to be over. I’m tired of sorting out fact from fiction. It is a fact that several people on Brooks Twitter feed have suggested he sue Meghan for defamation. I’d say he has a way better case than Joanna Krupa does against Brandi. Or that Adrienne Maloof had against Brandi. Because in both of those cases the women signed contracts that specifically state they cannot sue other participants for defamation, slander or libel. Meghan’s attacks were certainly malicious. Brooks is not a paid employee of Bravo. He did however have to sign a release and I am not sure if there was a clause in there releasing the other participants from liability. Brooks response to his fans was something along the lines of “wait and see.” Apparently, Meghan is glued to his timeline even while out of the country because she tweeted some childish sort of response along the lines of “bring it. hahaha and be sure to let people know how that works for you.”
UGH. On CNN right now they have breaking news that a community college in Oregon had a shooting today, ten people dead, 20 wounded. What is going on with this country?
I am ready for this reunion to be over. I am ready for this foul season to be over. I am hoping that Brooks will interview remotely with Andy and set the record straight. I am hoping Vicki will leave the reunion figuratively carrying the severed heads of her cast mates in a Hermes bag.
This is not enjoyable TV.
And this community college shooting is quite disturbing. As someone who has taught at several of them there is little if any on-campus security.
Beverly Hills? Yes, I’m ready for this season to be over. I didn’t think anyone or anything could have been more vile than Tamra’s naked/wasted episode. Meghan certainly made that G rated.
We must have been posting at the same time.
This storyline takes the cake. So over it and 3 more episodes and perhaps 3 part reunion of it left.
That picture is from last year’s reunion.
Who dressed these people? Homage to seeded watermelon. Fredrick’s of no where near Hollywood. If you had been kind to Heather she would’ve given’ you some yummy tummy, Prunella Del Ville topped with a travesty in maraschino. My eyes hurt.
Isn’t that top pic from last year’s reunion?? I remember Heather’s bangs of doom and Vicki’s titty dress quite clearly… I also can’t wait for this season to be over. Time for Tamra to go…
That dress is awful on Vicki.
Yes, it is last year’s reunion photo.
That photo is from season 9, thats why meghan isn’t there
Mistaken on fourth look. Truly appears to be blood of the poor red, congealing.
Picture is from last years reunion
Oregon? Oh, my. Such a beautiful and peaceful-seeming state, full of hippies and hipsters. Very sad.
If only Vicki would take a breath and piecemeal, point-by-point dismantle their bullshit, she’d come out on top. But instead she screamssssss in their faces and loses her supporters.
Without going too far left with this topic, the way she and Brooks behaved when talking about his treatment process reminded me a lot of what I’ve recently gone thru with family. The diagnosis, your feelings, the sheer crap of going thru cancer treatment really messes with your mental capacity. For both the patient and care providers. Repeatedly, my family would say one thing and appear to do the exact opposite. I finally had to realize that the volume of info everyone was juggling, trying to stay atop it and appear optimistic had taken it’s toll. Everyone was just barely keeping their nose above the waterline. And Vicki had just lost her mom.
That said, I’d love to see Brooks take Megan’s skinny ass to the cleaners over defamation. She could have cost him a bundle in lost opportunities.
spk – SO know what you are saying…when someone is sick with ANYTHING, it is exhausting for the person who is sick and their immediate family members. It is absolutely unrealistic to expect them to state every single syllable correctly. Brings to mind that stupid scene at CUT Fitness (which seems like b-day cake entrapment in retrospect) when several of the women made such a big deal out of when Brooks misspoke the words “had/have” re: non-hodgkins lymphoma. Hello, he was speaking about a dr. (who he said he was going to be seen by, and the dr. had had non-hodgkins lymphoma, treated it “alternatively” and no longer had it or was in remission) who no longer had it – that’s where the “had/have it (NHL)” drama started, which was no big deal to me…he was simply talking about the disease the dr. “had” and he “has” and tripped over the words…so normal in everyday speech, especially if a person is tired, whatever, they are not going to state everything perfectly all of the time! Don’t have a huge opinion either way on this issue, just simply stating the normalcy of speech screw-ups that happen to everyone, especially when tired! Having been “judged” myself over a very different but very real “invisible” illness that induces fatigue, I know how vital and important it is to treat others in similar situations with decency and respect their privacy if nothing else!
Fatigue is a sneaky bastard and people who “can’t see it”, dismiss it so easily. Hope you’re having good days Mousie and feeling better!
So glad someone said this! My best friend had me come to some appts with her before radiation began because she was so confused about her own info not to mention utterly exhausted.
I believe that photo’s from last year. I remember Vicki’s lace dress & Heather’s bangs. 😉
A few weeks ago I tweeted to Andy that Meghan was awful and the show was becoming unwatchable. After 9 seasons of watching, this former fan was out. His reply was that I should stop watching. From the guy who asks for viewer feedback. Lovely huh?
Really, Andy? What a jerk!!
I used to love Andy but now I’m getting over him and his ego.
To be fair… I have occasionally gone and read the tweets to Andy sometimes… he gets those kind of comments about EVERY Housewife, and every show all the time – that the show is horrible, etc. Was the comment just that Meghan is awful and the show is unwatchable b/c of how awful she is? Not necessarily detailed. I wonder if it was more of a “I find her continuing to call his drs & exes very disturbing. It is making RHOC too dark, Andy.” kind of comment he would have responded differently.
I expected to see a recliner so Vicki could sit by herself!
I’m dreading the reunion because I hate seeing the four against one routine, even when I dislike the person they are ganging up on. I hated seeing it with Teresa, even tho I wasn’t a fan of hers.
I have question, I don’t really read other sites but are you saying Tamra was defending Vicki to that _____ online site or that she was defending a made up story about herself?
I don’t give that site any views, but based on what I read on the twitter, Tamra asked Vicki why that site said that Vicki hated Tamra now and was not speaking to her. This is the same Tamra who has been saying everything that site posts about her is lies. Vicki has posted the same thing. She reminds Tamra of this and Tamra was like, oh, okay just checking. Vicki pledged her undying love to Tamra and that was that.
So, TT, what you’re saying is: Tamra asked Vicki if their truce for the reunion was over and Vicki reassured her it’s them against the world?
I stopped watching this season around the time Meghan started calling various Healthcare groups/Drs. Gutter living just isn’t entertaining to me.
I don’t see how Vicky can remain on this show with these women. I know the money probably makes it impossible to quit, but still.
I think Vicki loves the fame and attention.All of the fame and attention.
She loves it all. She loves being on tv, and she loves being a mean girl.
I am guilty.I admit that I have really enjoyed this season of O.C.more than any other.Seems like the viritroll is real & not manufactured by producers; these woman despise each other,judge each other & constantly undermine each other & while intellectually that is hateful & wrong it happens alot in the real world & I abhor that; yet on a television show its not so life altering or relative.Sorry.
I really thought this season would be Vicki and Shannon against the world. Sure Vicki has a history of being a mean girl and tuning out what she doesn’t want to hear by screaming or snoring but these mean girls have taken it to a new level. This reunion is probably 90% Brooks again with Megan leading the charge, 10% Shannon/Vicki friendship with 5% each Tamara religion and Heather ‘ McMansion .
And of course a Montage of how cool of a step mom Meghan is. Barf. No thanks. So many other greats shows on now. They could have msybe hooked a summer audience if they ended this show sooner.
Tamara I agree this season just not enjoyable. I will share from personal experience I was in Vietnam and Cambodia two years ago because my partner was Vietnamese. If Meghan can grow from seeing what I saw then let’s give her some hope.
Cambodia in particular is not a pretty place to visit. While both countries cater now to tourism there is an underlying ‘play them’ mentality. Hard to explain in writing.
More upset reading about this crazy Shannon and her husband show next week with Andy where a father gives his wedding ring to a ten year old daughter and says give it to her mother. Who does this?
Meghan was late because she fainted on the plane? Can she prove that with medical records?
Touche!
Lol Cat.
I want her Dr.’s phone number!
I heard that the airline she travelled on has not been conducting ‘faints’ since 2008.
In leiu of proof, I want justice!
Yes!!! And may this reaction to her every ailment haunt her forever.
Bwahahaha…that would make up for all my wasted time watching her spew her vitriol.
I would think that a lawyer could find that some part of the HIPPA privacy act was violated in regards to Brooks. Yes, Brooks did put himself in the position of being in the spotlight, but the fact that Bravo felt that viewers would find his storyline enticing causes me to feel as if Bravo has a very low opinion of our intelligence. I just can’t wait for Atlanta…snore.
HIPPA was not violated. Meghan has not seen any of Brooks medical records. At least not yet. But that doesn’t mean Brooks doesn’t have a defamation case. The number of accusations he has on social media alone as a result of Meghan’s behavior are also putting him in danger.
That is good news! I always appreciate knowing you will have the truth for us, thank you lady!!
Someone also mentioned Brooks might also be successful with an invasion of privacy suit against Meghan. Either way, I think she’s earned being on the hot seat legally for what she tried to do @ snooping into what should be someone’s personal and private medical records.
She needs to be taught a lesson about privacy and personal reputations and I hope she’s put in her place – very publicly. I hope any humiliation and embarrassment she might experience is seared into her brain so she never considers, for even a second, doing this to anyone again.
That’s true, Karol!
Restatement of the Law, Second, Torts, 652. One who intentionally intrudes, physically or otherwise, upon the solitude or seclusion of another or his private affairs or concerns, is subject to liability to the other for invasion of his privacy, if the intrusion would be highly offensive to a reasonable person.
Shouldn’t Meghan be very familiar with privacy since, you know, she was in the medical field and all?
I really like your blog you tell it like it is and that’s refreshing. I agree with everything you said above after watching this a couple of episodes ago, I said I can’t watch this crap or these women any more, especially Meghan. What is wrong with her? These are people’s medical issues and are private as a matter of law. Its called dignity. Where is the dignity? Briana calling her mother’s home her family home while she is a grown ass woman is just try to control her mother and shows a lack of respect for her in doing that, if I was Brooks I would have ran too.
The is no excuse for there not to be tons of security on all school campuses in the year 2015….FOR GOD SAKE!
Um tt if you want people to be nice, then double check what you wrote about Meghan and her husband. Wanting Andy to be mad at her and questioning her husbands sexuality? Come on!
I never said anything about being nice. I said not doubting people’s illnesses. Not going in on Vicki’s looks on her Instagram. And focusing on people’s BEHAVIORS. Meghan is a cunt. I didn’t invent the rumors about Jim’s sexual preferences they’ve been around for years. Until you understand the difference between calling people out for being cunts on a reality TV show and seeking them out all over social media to call them pedophiles and child molesters and anything else they feel like saying. Just take a seat and be very quiet.
Huh? These are not at all equivalent. It’s good to want bad, malicious people held accountable for their actions. It will be frustrating if Andy softballs it with Meghan after all she’s done. ‘Justice’ on the reunion couch probably won’t happen because Andy is friends with Jim Edmonds.
Fantasy reunion: Jim comes out on reunion with Andy, they both tell Meghan to zip it.
So much negativity in general. This show needs a complete recast. Why wouldn’t Bravo take the risk? Find another OC group of botoxed blonds. It wouldn’t be too hard.
Micheal ⏫⏫ Good idea, I would enjoy a new cast. Yes that area is chock full of noticed blonds.
I picture a love seat on one side with Vicki and Tamra on it. Everyone else on the other. Andy is loving this reunion.
Okay, so I just called Meghan’s ex and he said that Meghan has a history of lying about fainting in front of Taiwanese flight attendants. I AM DEMANDING JUSTICE!
C’mon, TT, you know justice is like my thing.
I will not stop until there is a cure for fainting in front of Taiwanese flight attendants.
I wonder if the Vicki/Brooks breakup had anything to do with her saying, on multiple occasions on the show, that she misses Don, that she wished she’d tried harder with Don, etc, etc. That bloom must have been off the rose a long time ago.
