One of the things that I have never understood about the upcoming season of RHOA is what happened to Tammy McCall Browning? In fact one of my sources with different sources was asking me the same thing. Tammy filmed test scenes with housewives way before the season began. I began hearing about this great new housewife who was a dancer who was married to a white man. Production LOVED her. The housewives LOVED her. She was going to be the new “it” housewife. For months I never even knew her last name.But multiple sources kept raving about her. It didn’t make sense that she was not the show this season.
Here is what I wrote on September 9th when POST production was beginning:
Currently, Cynthia, Kim, Kandi, Kenya, and Phaedra have secure (or as secure as they ever are) peaches. Here is the big news. There are still THREE people fighting for TWO peaches. Those three are Porsha, a new girl named Tammy (I have not heard a thing about her in WEEKS and now suddenly I’m hearing she is still a viable option) and…… fucking Sheree Whitfield.
I would not believe that Sheree was still an option since she has been selling shoes on Instagram and trying to get people to pay her $5 for a selfie with her. However, last week, the RHOA actually shot a new opening. It’s been a million years since they have had a new opening. And all EIGHT women were there. Everyone shot a single shot. Several versions of the group shot were shot. With everyone. I know that Phaedra did some shooting inside her house with just her and the boys last week for part of her opening.
At this time, nobody was talking about Sheree. She was more like Amiyah Scott, she was seen at a couple of events here and there, like Adrienne Maloof would pop in for an episode of RHOBH here and there but not enough to even really be an FOH. She was more of a day player. In September, when it became obvious that she was being considered for a peach I found that odd. I had already heard that Porsha might be placated with a peach after the great debacle on the Lanier outing. As of September 9th, Tammy was still the new wonderful person that everyone loves.
Well, today, for some strange reason, TMZ Sports is reporting that some former basketball player named Glen Rice Jr. is the reasons Tammy lost her peach. Tammy must be furious because I’m telling you, she had that peach in her bag like Nene has Gregg’s balls.
Three days after posing with her peach for the RHOA opening, the whole gang went to Miami. And there things went terribly wrong. Tammy, who is married, invited former basketball player Glen Rice Jr who is TWENTY FOUR YEARS OLD to the house where they were filming. According to TMZ Sports, she did this to help her chances of getting on the show. I personally think that was unnecessary, but at the photo shoot they did have Sheree show up and that could have made her concerned about her spot since only two of the three were expected to make it through. Eventually, even with Tammy out of the running, Sheree just got an FOH (at least for now, you really never know with Andy)
At any rate, Glen got wasted drunk and was making the middle-aged housewives uncomfortable. Some of the housewives complained about his behavior and were concerned about their safety. TamaraTattles.com sources say that Kim Fields led the charge. She was not down with a drunk, entitled 24 year old acting a fool. I’m sure Porsha was just trying to get some sperm up in her as she said on the trailer for the show.
Tammy realizes this was a very bad idea and asks Glen to leave and then he went nuts. He went after Kim Fields for complaining about him to production. Tammy intervened to stop him as cameras continued to roll (where the hell was production? What does it take to stop tape?). I reported here, Kim left Miami early and I now know right after the incident telling, Huffington Post “we went on a trip and things got out of hand and I bounced. A cast member said, you have to stay, we are all in this together and I said, “I just met you, I don’t owe you that!”
Glen was not having Tammy intervene and knocked her to the ground where she hit her head on something, the cameras still rolled but production finally jumped in and helped two housewives pin the little punk to the sofa. He was eventually tossed out. If you look close at the preview you can see it. You know that person at the very end of the RHOA trailer on the floor crying? That was Tammy. And why are all the women in white bathrobes is there is a drunk 24 year old in the house? Apparently, he thought he could stay there in the house because he came back to the house with Tammy after she went to urgent care about her head injury. She was looked over found not to have a concussion and sent on her way.
However, for whatever reason, she brought Glenn back to the house with her and the housewives were not having it and he was asked to leave. He went off AGAIN and the cops were called. When the cops arrived Glen left without further incident.
Sidenote: Glen was in Atlanta recently and was in an altercation at T.I. restaurant and was shot in the leg, or the ass or something as part of that melée . Cute.
Okay, so this solves two mysteries, What happened to Tammy’s peach?” and “Who is that on the floor at the end of the RHOA trailer?
But for me it brings up more questions. My sources are not talking about the incident in Miami. Other than sort of confirming that it involved Kim Fields, they won’t say a word. Now these sources are not supposed to tell me anything at all about filming period. But they do share things with me. This is different. This feels to me like they have been threatened about anything getting out regarding the situation in Miami for legal reasons. I smell a lawsuit. I’m not sure what kind so I will not even speculate, but something very different is going on here,.
Also, Tammy filmed A LOT. She was at many, many things, so I don’t know how they are going to cut her out completely. It is unlikely but not impossible that she will turn up with a peach at some point. Even though the screeners are out for episode one, things could change. Hell, Sheree could end up with a peach just as easily. In the past new housewives have been introduced a few episodes in and the opening scene changes to include a new person.
You never know with Bravo. They are very fond of playing Pass the Peach. Carlos King did supposedly promise Sheree a peach. And seven peaches would not be unusual. I’m just saying…
Thanks, Tamara. This was Premium Brew Tea. So delicious and so satisfying. Love what you do!!!
You’re good, TT. You get the real scoop and put it together perfectly. Thank you! IMO, Bravo needs a whole new crew of RHOA. Nene repulses me. I dislike her personality and hate how she opens her mouth so incredibly wide when she laughs. Sheree? Whyyyyyyyy? Porsha is an embarrassment to womanhood, and seeing her squeezed up into outfits better suited for her old body makes me cringe. Cynthia has no substance and is boring as heck. Kim Fields seems out of place, and it hurts my eyes to look at her hideous, Ramen noodles hair. Phaedra is boring. Kenya is entertaining, but her zaniness sometimes makes males me dizzy. Kandi? For a long time she was my fave. But ever since she bought herself a doormat of a husband (to disrespect and have others disrespect), she has become arrogant beyond my tolerance level. I plan to watch the first episode. But, whether watching the show will continue to be my guilty pleasure remains to be seen.
Why would you even bother wanting new housewives? You already got one – Kim Fields – and before even witnessing a single second of her on the screen, you’ve already judged her and found her lacking.
With any new housewife bravo introduces, you will just find some inconsequential reason not to like them.
Give Sheree a tin cup so she can pan handle donations just in case there’s a fallout in the used Shaq sized shoe market.
I’ve heard about Tammy all day and I feel bad for her,I can’t believe they took her peach because of his actions. From what I heard that guy is her nephew but honestly porsha got lucky because honestly Cynthia, Kenya, Kandi, Kim and Phaedra were guaranteed peach holders and I would have really loved to see Tammy and Sheree round out the rest of the cast. Porsha and shamea could have been FOH but such is life.
In light of all this passing the peach, and apparently Porsha being rewarded for a kick from Cynthia, it baffles me even more how that THOT Porsha ever got back on RHOA in any role. That dragging of Kenya across the floor by her hair should have barred her from one second of money or screen time ever. Even if Kenya was agreeable to not making a big issue of it, it was so wrong. Porsha should never have been on a boat to taunt Cynthia into firing back at that bitch Porsha. I want to see what Glen or Tammy did to Kim or anyone in comparison, if Tammy is now exiled.
Carlos and Andy are turds.
I’m baffled at how Tammy is seemingly responsible for the actions of Glen Rice, but Porsha is not even held responsible for her own actions???
I agree. This girl loses a peach for the actions of another, but Porsha is rewarded for her own aggressive actions? Doesn’t make sense.
This post was such a good read! I am so curious to know why they had to take her out of consideration for a peach. I can’t wait for all the details to eventually come out…
E! Played a preview of the season premiere. Kenya throws shade at Chateau “Charade” (Kenya’s words) and Sheree’s veins pop out of her neck and she gets in “Who Gon check me boo?” mode… LOL!
TT, wasn’t Cristy Rice Real Housewives of Miami season 1 married to a Glen Rice NBA player?
Christy is the ex-wife of the 24-year old Glen’s father, also called Glen. Both played in the NBA.
…and THIS, people, is why you need to hit that little DONATE button on the right AND click to watch the ads on this site.
Damn, TT. You are amazing year round, but you are ON FIRE during RHOA.
Well, Hell…..this sounds all very convalouted.
At this rate I might even end up with a peach.
If so, I will give Sheree the pit.
I would give Sheree a prune. She always looks constipated to me. Right around the eyes.
Porsha’s right leg still looks three times the size of the left. She must sleep on that side where all that home depot concrete’s setting up. Not a brick house more of a highway divider.
Ok take it further. Glenn step mom is christy Rice from RHOM 1st season. He is the step son she was accused of sleeping with at the reunion in the club house that season. Just some tea
Wow I forgot about that! Damn that was along time ago, if he’s only 24 now was he underage???
OMG U HAVE THE BEST TEA
FYI Glen Rice Jr was Cristy’s former stepson from RHOM Season 1
I knew the name was familiar…at first I thought it was Basketball wives and then I remembered the Miami franchise…..easy to forget. Cristy was full of herself and was caught having an affair leading to Glen Sr’s arrest on battery charges………and was accused of sleeping with her stepson, the Jr. mentioned…..if he’s only 24 now, how old was he when he allegedly slept with his stepmom? ew.
This got me excited for the new season!
I guess it will be like a Danielle on RHOC situation where she was oddly cut out of so many scenes. We knew she was there but would only see a hand or a leg or a quick pan-over…
Hmmm, there was a lawsuit in that situation too was there not?
Sheree is four cups of crazy and I hope she receives a peach. Marlo and Sheree were the only two who could take on Nay Nay, and That is great TV.
I disagree at some point or another nearly every housewife as taken on NeNe, hell even that other type of wannabe housewife Peter has taken on NeNe successfully. Sheree, Marlo, Kenya, Kandi, Cynthia, Kim Biermann, and most especially spectacularly Claudia Jordan which gave us the top ramen meme forever to enjoy. NeNe is pretty dumb, probably as dumb as Porsha only I’m guessing twice her age. She thinks if she gets louder it hides how dumb she is. It doesn’t. I don’t think I’ve ever seen NeNe get into an argument on the show where she was either right, or ultimately the winner.
This was GREAT Tea!!! TT you’re the best! I don’t know if Kim Fields will be back next season…This seems to be way out of her element!
