Black Twitter is already blowing up about something Tiffany Haddish said about Nene Leakes, so I guess I better hurry up and get on this. I was trying to eat something and feed the dog after pontificating for an hour and forty minutes and 3,000 works on RHOA. I actually had more to say but I wanted to get it up today!
In case you don’t know Tiffany is a comedian and is probably best known for being on If Loving You is Wrong on OWN. She was just the first black female comedian to host SNL, which was perfect timing for her to hawk her new book. She was also the breakout star of the movie Girls Trip this year and Andy thinks she will get an Oscar nomination for the role. She on a book tour now having a huge moment in the spot light. Looks wise, she can even hold her own sitting next to Cynthia Bailey.
I was so busy typing up the RHOA recap like a lunatic that I totally forgot to mention that Porsha said she loves Chinatown because it makes her feel like she just stepped off a trolley into Tokyo. I honestly think production feeds her these lines in her talking head. It’s like they think stupid and young are the same thing.
Cynthia explains about her actions at the last dinner of tonight’s RHOA. As if it needs explanation! She says Kenya was on her way to a funeral and had a lot going on and she was the only one doing those sensitive scenes with Kenya and she was feeling very protective of her. I like how the first thing she did was look and Andy and say she is 100% for Kenya. In case you missed it, Bravo decided that if Kenya didn’t film with Marc, then they were going to nonrenew her for season eleven. She seemed pretty dead in the water at that point. There was a lot of crap happening to her during filming to make her look even worse. BUT THEN Kim Biermann came along and her and her plastic recreation of herself, Brielle started acting like fools. At first Nene was being Switzerland, but once Kim came for Nene, then Nene gathered up all the girls to come for Kim. So now everybody is suddenly team Kenya and trying to get rid of Kim instead. Also they all hate that the producer is so biased toward Kim. So now, there seems to be some hasty post filming editing happening to soften the relentless attacks on Kenya, most from Bravo suits, and we are all starting to have some hope. Especially since Kim let the cat out of the bag that Bravo was not planning on hiring Kenya back for season eleven. I know for a fact that pissed them off, and she continues to say it on social media anyway. She seems to think she’s above the rules. That could bite her in her surgically enhanced ass. We will have to see what the reunion holds. Let’s hope there is a chance for a reversal for Kenya. Tonight I was checking Twitter to see how the fans were responding. They were overwhelmingly pro Kenya. This is great news. But don’t get your hopes up too high.
Cynthia says that she has met Marc and he is a great guy. They pretty much all met him at a party at OLG.
Tiffany is asked about Girls Trip 2. She says she wants to film it in South Africa. But they haven’t brought up having one yet. She says if they made a Bad Moms 2 they have to make a Girls Trip 2 because it made a ton of money.
Andy asks how she felt hearing Nene’s commentary on her friendship with Kenya tonight. She said she really doesn’t pay Nene that much attention at this point. She says they have their ups and downs but “I ain’t thinking about Nene.” Cynthia says everything so nicely, it didn’t really sound like shade the way she said it.
Then Tiffany asks Cynthia is Nene is crazy for real. She says, “Because you know I did a comedy show with her… and, and, that was a mess.” Andy asks if she was funny. Tiffany says, “She was funny at first, and then she got drunk and I got concerned.” Then Andy cut to commercial. Because he always fucks up the best part of the show! And he always ignores Nene’s bad behavior. He has not once brought up her telling an audience member at a show she hopes she gets raped by the Uber driver on the way home. You know if Kenya had said that it would have been his Jackhole on the next episode of WWHL.
Andy plays a clip from next week with Kandi and Todd and Cynthia and Will going out on a boat. Kandi gives Will some sass about being on Steve Harvey all the time and claiming to be a dating expert. Side note Will’s friendship with Steve Harvey is a little shady. Steve gives dating advice all the time too and writes self help books for women and has some pretty scandalous stuff in his closet. It’s about the time for those things to start falling out of the closet. Will was also recently on another dating show that Kandi is aware of. Kandi calls him an opportunist in her talking head. Ha! An opportunist! I’m surprised she got away with that because so far everyone is playing along with this made for RHOA relationship.
Andy doesn’t allow Cynthia to respond to the talking head that she is probably only seeing for the first time. She says, “Oh My God!” and anyone with any training as a talk show host would ask for follow up considering that response. Not Andrew, he goes straight to his note cards and asks Tiffany a question. #Idiot
The question was about Taylor Swift for fucksake. Tiffany says one thing we would be surprised to know about Taylor Swift is she keeps a lot of poloroid cameras around and takes a lot of photos and makes beautiful collages. Aren’t you so much more excited about knowing that than you would be to know who Cynthia feels for calling out Cynthia’s fake boyfriend?
Ya’ll just need to watch this episode for yourself because Tiffany is freaking HILARIOUS. I saw her on SNL but I wasn’t really paying attention. But get yourself to Youtube, Canookians and watch this girl. I can’t really recap it because there is a lot of physical comedy involved.
A caller asks Cynthia if she thinks Kandi will ever be able to forgive Porsha. She says not any time soon. It will take a while, she was put through a lot. But she thinks in time she will. I do not think she will. I would not. Cynthia says you can’t rush forgiveness.
It’s time for the demean a gay guy game. Andy asks the girls a bunch of sex questions. If either of them has done the things he asked he has to remove an article of clothing. Had sex with a foreigner on vacation? Sex in an ocean? Skinny dipping on a trip? Bailed on a hotel room bill? Ordered porn in a hotel? Snuck into an attraction without paying? Phone sex? Stalked a celebrity?
I answered yes to six with a kind of on the celeb stalking. So six and a half. How about you?
Tiffany was turnt up by the end of the show. I think she was drinking vodka on the rocks.
%100 agree, Andrew is an #Idiot
Oh I love Tiffany Haddish. I don’t know if this is allowed in the commenting rules but there’s a great radio interview Tiffany did talking about her life. She’s an amazing person that’s been through hell and back. Both her and Cynthia looked gorgeous tonight
Thanks ? TT for an awesome job in recapping this shit show. Andy is nothing but a cunt, why jump to commercial when the tea just got delightful. I can’t believe I sat up to have my feelings hurt. I needed to hear why Tiffany was concerned about Nene.
Tiffany was too damn real for Andy and was about to spill some sweet tea but of course Mr. Jackass cut her off with a commercial. Tiffany is a huge star right now with an even bigger personality, so if you though she was gonna be timid we’ll think again. Cynthia is my girl and she slayed life per usual.
I am really late to the game in not realizing WWHL isn’t really live? I was called last night by someone over there to be a caller and given a question to ask Cynthia and told I would be called back at a certain time, 5-30pm, as the second caller to ask said given question. Fortunately/unfortunately things happened and I couldn’t get to my phone when they called back. I did watch the show, and I enjoyed Tiffany. And of course, both ladies looked gorgeous.
Wow! I thought the shows were live. I remember Andy commenting one time on some current event that had just happen before a show aired (Oscar or Emmy winner).
Maybe it was a one off type situation. I really have no idea. I am not that invested in the show. I don’t like Andy enough to stay up and watch him.
It’s very rarely live. Especially now that he is touring. I’m amazed it was on the same day.
Thank you for the recap from this Canadian!!
First time I ever heard of Tiffany was last week when she was on Ellen show! holy crap she is hilarious, Ellen rented her a tesla for a week (apparently they are expensive cars) and Tiffany, when Ellen says “wait til you see what’s in the back seat”…Tiffany “OMG are there diamonds in the back seat!!” Meanwhile it was a cut out of Oprah.
Her goals, grow veggies with Oprah and buy lots of diamonds and a Tesla!!
Sorry, when I read who was going to be on WWHL – I zombied out when I read Tifany and yes this week we are watching Youtube tiffany!
again, thanks for recapping WWHL for us!
I’ve no idea how I learned of Tiffany and her back story. I intentionally watched to see her. What a beautiful young woman who lives a I can do life. To me she is the epitome of what a young woman can do with her life with little more than a vision and a dream. Hope she remains charming.
I like this Cynthia. I like her choosing the better friend, Kenya. I’m glad these ladies decided to team up with Kenya over Kim.
Now team up to eliminate these fake male relationships. It has been 10 seasons and it’s time to define some rules to bring some respect for women. One is that serious relationships should develop off screen.
And how many marriages have Bravo pushed into divorce court?
Tiffany Haddish is awesome!! I wish I had known she was on the show last night. She is so funny!!
GET RID OF SHITSTARTING SHEREE POINT BLANK PERIOD!!! That’s all she does is stir up shit. The show will fair on it’s own without that bitch.
Tiffany in the video game skit as
Boo-Boo Jeffries on SNL is one of the funniest skits. Can. Not. Stop. LOL’ing.
I always told my students that there was no such thing as a dumb question. I may have been wrong, but here goes. What is black twitter? I tried to look it up and I saw lots of articles about “black twitter” and the LA Times said they hired a reporter to just cover black twitter. That’s very unusual in an era when newspapers are cutting back everywhere. But…I couldn’t find a real place. Be gentle with me; I’m a compu-idiot.
I’m not on twitter but I do go there and lurk. I read you on twitter, TT. It lets me know when you post new stuff.
“Black Twitter” is a term that has been around for years but came to my attention when activists like DeRay Mckesson and many, many others began using Twitter to call attention to social and political issues specific to black people using Twitter with hashtags like #BlackLivesMatter, #ICantBreathe and many others. It proved to be a great way for people who shared the same political concerns to join up to further causes like stopping police brutality, supporting political candidates, and bringing awareness to new causes and making people aware of real life events and marches about a variety of issues.
Since then, the term has been applied to less serious matters like discussing entertainment news within the black community, like actors, musicians, and even RHOA who do something that effects the black community in some positive or negative way. It has moved on to mean a collective of folks who tweet about all things of interest to the black community. Black Twitter can be really funny when they want to be, and really harsh when they don’t on issues like #OscarsSoWhite (a hashtag about the lack of minorities inclusions in award shows). Or when they go after people like Paula Deen for racist remarks. When there is a drama on Twitter like there was last night when Tiffany threw shade at Nene, there are a lot of tweets weighing about what “black Twitter” is saying.
It’s not an actual group of specific people. It’s when a group of people (who may or may not actually be black) support or defend a social or political issue that is of special interest to the black community.
Or something. That is how I view it. Your mileage may vary. I and sleeping really, really wacky hours and just woke up.
Fuck. #icantbreath just put this visual in your head. Guess it does what it’s intended to do
Black Twitter is just black people on Twitter. Lol! Not any special group or hashtag really. It’s when a bunch of black people start tweeting about the same thing. The commentary is often hilarious and truthful.. And tends to involve a lot of dragging.
Have to say I disagree with you about Porsha. I think she’s really that dumb all on her own. She and Teresa are neck and neck.
SJU I’m going to need you to watch the season of Celebrity Apprentice with Porsha. It’s a mind bender that I still don’t understand. Perhaps I am building it up in my head a bit with distance and recalling her to be smarter than she appeared.
I thought I watched it but who can recall? It’s a while ago, I think. I’ll just have to keep my eye on her. 😀
Damn, Tamara!! Six and as half out of eight? I’ve apparently led a really dull life. Do you think being 71 makes me too old for sex in the ocean or skinny dipping? I really need to be careful flashing my aging nakedness around – I wouldn’t want to be the reason for a mass whale beaching or destruction of coral reefs.
There are not a lot of people on the beach late at night. And I was hot at the time. lol. I got a lot out of my system during my attractive years.
Right now I could get a man if I had Mariah Caray Money. I’m good with that. I became worse and worse at picking men with every passing year. I’m just not good with relationships. 🙂
The should have read “right now I could NOT get a man…”
GO FOR IT!! The whales and coral reefs would probably welcome the change
I must be lame because I didn’t answer yes to many. Andy sucks at getting the tea and I’m not sure if he is trying to protect what comes up later in episodes or what.
Loved Tiffany on SNL and WWHL, but saying she was the first ever black comedian to host SNL I was confused by. Has Whoopi never hosted?
Nope. That was shocking to me as well. She is an EGOT. Perhaps she turned them down?
Uhhh TT – why are you not discussing the business that Kim Z. spilled on twitter that one of the RHOA housewives got fired. I thought you would have been all up in that teapot trying to squeeze out every last drop of that juiciness. Surely, your sources know which one of the HW’s it was????
Because I mentioned it weeks before?
