Jake is on Kinky Boots on Broadway and was the lead singer of Scissor Sisters and is a huge Pump Rules fan. So we start with Jake singing the theme song of Vanderpump Rules on a podcast. It was very emo.
Then we see Kevin Lee’s ridiculous apology to Katie who is in the audience. No one seems to know why Tom Sandoval was in a kilt during the scene where Jax came to his apartment. Um, easy access. Duh! Then we voted that Sandoval carrying a dog in a baby wrap was NOT hot.
Stassi confirms that Scheana and Carl from Summer House hooked up, just like Kristen said. I have several episodes of Summer House on my DVR. Should I watch them? I don’t really have much time right now with all the shows to recap plus Big Brother plus occasionally trying to peek at the Olympics. Wait, that watermelon scene does seem like must see TV.

Everyone is on Katie and Kristen’s side regarding the big blowup Stassi had at her own party. She blames the booze (and the adderall) and says she is emrassed by her behavior. Then we see Kristen essentially predicting the breakup of Stassi and Patrick. Stassi and Jake both agree Kristen was right.
Jake things that James has always had a little sugar in his tank and he did seem to lead Logan on a bit. He calls James a Shadow Lounge queen which apparently was one of LVP’s bars in London. Stassi denies that pasta is about anything other than pasta, yet no one believes her.
According to Stassi’s white dress it is very cold in her studio. Her nipples are perfectly lined up. #Jealous Stassi says she is in a relationship right now. He does not work at SUR. Kristen and Katie introduced them.
Andy Cohen of all people gives Stassi a lecture about thinking before she speaks on her Podcast since she is always saying things that get her in hot water there. As if he has room to talk. She says she is learning the hard way. That is after she doubled down on all her stupidity at first.
Stassi and Jake both think that Jax has cheated on Brittany more than once.
The game was even stupider than usual. Jake doesn’t know how to describe food.
Andy gives the Mazel to the ridiculous portraits of the Obamas that were unveiled yesterday. WTF is up with that?
I say don’t waste your time with Summer house. Boooorrriinngg….yawn…I almost fell asleep there while typing the name of it, lol
I second BC’s statement. Not much of anything exciting has happened this season in the Summer House. Kind of a slightly-less-exciting continuation of last season. I will be surprised if this show makes it to a next season.
Show is horrible, not sure why/how it got a second season.
Agreed with all of the above, TT. It’s terrible and everyone’s voices grate on my nerves like no tomorrow.
I don’t know why women keep falling for this carl, jerk. He’s lanky, really hairy, with big, doofy ears lol, and that’s before we get to his awful personality. It boggles the mind.
In what universe is Kristen being sane and making the most sense.
BTW, I am OBSESSED with Curling.
Curling is one of those sports that sounds dumb until you watch and then become obsessed.
It’s crazy! I’ve watching curling all day!
My bestie from college and I are wishing that we had taken a class in college (we were near the Canadian border, back when you didn’t need a passport – the class was north of the border)
OMG! THANK YOU! I thought it was just (weirdo) me !I looked up the rules and everything, It is highly addictive.
I spent a good amount of my childhood in North Dakota and we all curled. It’s a great sport where men and women can be equally competitive when playing with or against each other. It was great when we went to Canada to play against them, so much fun – love Canada!
Me too!
Michelle and Barak Obama’s portraits are a national embarrassment. The artist who did Michelle’s failed to capture her personality at all, and the colors and background were insipid. This is a woman who was known for her great smile and her style – her sense of humor and dignity don’t show at all, and the background looks as though the artist was just too lazy to paint an appropriate one. President Obama’s is the exact opposite – the likeness isn’t bad, but that background! It looks like something you’d use an app on your phone for. I actually like the background in terms of it being well done, but it doesn’t belong there. It’s going to look plain old stupid next to the other paintings of former presidents. Everyone else has a background befitting the subject, but to portray President Obama sitting in what looks like a flowery hedge? Insanity. It wouldn’t be so bad if these were just random paintings, but these are the official portraits!! Hate them!
You’ve not seen the other portraits at the National Portrait Gallery, have you? There is some far out there stuff! It is probably one of my top 3 things to do and see in DC. (The others are the Renwick Gallery and the POV bar on top of the W Hotel two buildings down from the White House.
The artists were selected by President and Mrs. Obama. His artist almost always has that kind of background, and her artist always works in grayscale (or almost always does… I’m not sure about her stuff).
The Portrait Gallery is online – It isn’t quite the same as seeing it with the scale and the actual colors, etc. the artist selected (might be distorted on computers, etc.). My favorites were Lyndon Johnson’s (because he hated it, not because it is particularly good!), Clinton’s (THAT is one that is strange! Oh, but being on the computer does NOT do it justice – it is HUGE and there is something about the scale of it that adds to what you are seeing), Woodrow Wilson (first one to break from traditional stuff), and George W. Bush’s. (I like his smile in it, and that he is “business casual”.)
There were a ton other portraits in the gallery – of famous people and not so famous. I am thinking that the Kevin Spacey as the president in House of Cards is gone though. I feel bad for that artist. It was a great painting!
Thanks for the info, Erica. will definitely check it out online. It sounds really interesting. Maybe one day I’ll check it out in person.
OH DO!!! NPG is so much more than “just” the American Presidents.
A good number of people are turned off by the fact that DC is “expensive”. BUT, one should factor in that ALL of the Smithsonian is free! Great public transportation too.
VRBO might cut down on expenses, esp. if you fix some of your own meals.
Of course, DC is very much a foodie place, so I recommend just finding a great happy hour menu, etc. 🙂 Oh, I didn’t know this when I went, but I guess some of the museums have really great cafeterias, each with a different twist.
English, these portraits are intended to be relaxed, they are not the official portraits that will hang in the WH.
I like them especially Barack Obama’s.
Wish his hair wasn’t so grey though.
I WAS A SHADOW LOUNGE BOY! YAAAAAY!
Oooft, I think there is something ridiculously sexy about Jake Shears. He looks NASTY. ?
LOL, Jake was trending that night, thinking you are not alone in your thoughts. Even straight ladies can admire that mind. ?
Omg, those portraits were so ridic. Finally, someone who tells the truth!
When I first saw the paintings I thought it was some sort of joke on the internet. I was shocked when it turned out to be true.
Obama’s can’t catch a break, even when they do what is appropriate.
Her arms look fat?
Kevin Lee take a seat. Your five minutes are about up.
