Entertainment News We Didn’t Discuss This Week

April 14, 2019 by tamaratattles 50 Comments

There was a lot of Entertainment News that Tamara Tattles did not cover this week that you need to know about. So let’s hit the highlights, or low lights of this past week. Let’s start with the lawsuits of the week.

Lawsuits

In case you missed, Patricia Altschul filed a suit against K. Cooper Ray this week may end up causing her some legal problems as it appears to be vexatious litigation.  But there were a few other cases this week that appear to have actual cause.

Camille and David do A LOT of traveling. #jealous

Civil Action Against David Meyer

Camille Grammar’s new husband, David Meyer, is being accused of fraud. A formal complaint has been filed with the California bar by someone who suffered damages via the alleged fraud. The complaint seeks David Meyer’s disbarment.

Artwork by David Gilmore, PrettyontheOutside.com

The short version is that David acted as counsel for Troy Stratos who was recently convicted of fraud.  Stratos was sentenced to 22 years in Federal prison. David was also Stratos’ attorney during the fraudulent transactions. “Acting under the Meyer created alias “Ken Dennis”, Meyer and Stratos created Soumaya Securities and confirmed to multiple parties that “Ken Dennis” was a representative of Carlos Slim the Mexican Billionaire.  Further, the entity name “Soumaya” was selected as “Soumaya” is the name of Carlos Slim’s deceased wife.”

Basically, David Meyer and Troy Stratos were taking million dollar investments under the guise of purchasing large numbers of Facebook shares.

One of the injured parties has created a website to bring public awareness to the situation. Here you can read the judges ruling that seem quite damaging to David Meyer. Tamara Tattles has not seen any  federal charges or lawsuits that have been filed against Meyer at this time.

Vicki Gunvalson v. Brooks Ayers

It looks like Vicki Gunvalson lost a lot more money during her relationship with Brooks Ayers than just buying him some teeth, clothes, and paying his back child support. She’s now suing him over some major loans she made to cover other expenses. These in fact could be related to the child support situation. The reason for the loans was not made clear.  According to E! Vicki is suing for

“failing to pay back $184,899 she loaned him in 2011 and not adhering to a written agreement they made in 2016, in which he was to provide an accounting of his income. She further alleged he has not repaid her $81,652 she loaned him for attorneys fees stemming from litigation between 2013 and 2015.”

City of Chicago v. Jussie Smollett

The city of Chicago has officially filed a civil suit against Jussie Smollett seeking reimbursement in excess of $130,000 for cost to the police department to investigate his hoax hate crime. More importantly, the civil case may cause the sealed files on the criminal investigation to become public.

In addition there have been calls for the resignation of Cook County State’s Attorney Kim Foxx. The city is also asking for a special prosecutor to be appointed to oversee the civil case.

When Is A Recusal Not A Recusal?

In response, Foxx  has asked that Cook County Inspector General Patrick Blanchard review how the state’s attorneys office handled the criminal case against Jussie Smollett.  This moves seems to be a way to prevent the appointment of a special prosecutor to oversee the civil case.

In other fun facts, Foxx said during the criminal case investigation that she had recused herself. Now she is saying that when she said the word “recused” she meant it “colloquially” not “legally.” She appears to be backtracking. Because , when she recused herself the case should have been immediately handed over to a special prosecutor. Instead, it continued to be handled by her her office. Speaking of her office, those attorneys who worked most closely to her are allegedly dropping like flies to return to private practice.

City National Bank v. Tori Spelling and Dean McDermott

Tori and Dean have not repaid the nearly $200,000 judgment owed to City National Bank handed down in 2017. The interest now makes the judgment closer to $300K. The courts have required a debtor examination of their finances. Meanwhile, Tori went on some sort of first class trip to Israeli. Hopefully, it was a trip to get a discount tubal ligation.

Random Reality Show Nonsense

Jenelle Evans and David Eason Drama of The Week

And now for some good news. Jenelle Evans has had her tubes tied. The last time I paid attention to Jenelle Evans was when she and David separated two months ago. Apparently, they reunited a week ago.

Now Jenelle is making some bizarre statements about why she got a tubal ligation. She claims that she was in constant pain on her left side. See, there is only one reason to get a tubal ligation. That is if you don’t want to have more babies. Or if there is something wrong with you that would make getting pregnant dangerous to the mother.

As usual, this whole story is bizarre right up to the part where David left her alone in the hospital all night. She was on social media talking about how she hates being alone. When David arrived to pick her up the next day, he brought her a gift to give her as soon as she was rolled out of the hospital. It was a surfboard. It sounds like things are really bad there again. David posted about cooking for Jenelle as she was “feeling poorly.” Make of that what you will.

Brandi Glanville’s Drinking Problem Makes News Again

Last night, Brandi Glanville donned a tiny pair of red polka dotted shorts and a see-thru white shirt, probably from Wet Seal and went with friends to Mr. Chow.  Mr. Chow is where minor celebrities go to try and get papped by the paparazzi for entertainment news sites.  I’m sure it seemed like a good idea at the time. Then she drank a ton of shots. Her stumbling out of the joint in high heels alone with smeared lipstick and her tits and ass hanging out was indeed caught on camera. SUCCESS! The one with her drunkenly slumped against the dirty wall was my favorite. She has clearly been carving at her face again. Sigh.

Vicki Gunvalson Had Another Surgery

Vicki Gunvalson had yet another surgery yesterday. Of course she posted it on Instagram and it was filmed for RHOC. She comment under her four photos from the hospital, “Had another “non elective” procedure yesterday and feeling much better today. Thank you to all that reached out. #itsalwayssomething #cantkeepmedownlong #filmingtoday #lifeofvicki #puffybedwarmer #notababy

Lisa Vanderpump and Bethenny Frankel

Both LVP and Bethenny Frankel were on WWHL recently. LVP kept claiming she isn’t watching the season while talking about all the things shown on the show this season. She did say that Camille Grammer apologized for “saying something awful” about her on camera when she dropped by LVP’s cocktail bar. That show had not aired yet at the time of the opening. LVP seemed really pissed about the bad teeth comment. She threatened to expose all the extensive surgeries the other women have had.

Bethenny Frankel said she has talked with both of her longtime friends Kyle Richards and Lisa Rinna about the damn dog situation. Bethenny said she thought Kyle and LVP would eventually mend fences. She also said she warned Rinna to make sure LVP was all the way dead if they came for her. She says LVP is not dead yet.

Sort of Open Forum

That’s all the news for now from the Entertainment News World. In the real world, it’s been a shit week. The weather has been insane. I don’t do well with ups and down in barometric pressure so I’ve been an emotional hot mess all week. Last night I was up all night with Banjo who is declining in health lately. I am bracing for the inevitable. Every time he loses a bit more pep or does unusual things I go into “this is it mode.” He seems better today. Then the tornadoes and bad weather rolled in. I’m ready for a new week, what about you guys?

Please no dying dog stories in comments. Or dying people stories. Or depressing health issues. No depressing comment of any kind in comments. Thanks!

    At least here in Ct, tornadoes are s highly unusual thing, although we actually had 3 last summer. They were small compared to what you see in the Midwest or someplace like Alabama. Still. Cleanup at Sleeping Giant Stste ark has taken forever, as they knocked down a vast swathe of trees. My son and I went out earlier to do some garden cleanup in the front yard. I planted a flat of Tête á téte daffodils and we filled two lawn debris bags. Mybutt is killing me from all the bending over. Another 20 years of planting a flat each year and the front garden will look amazing at this time of year!

      Bethenny apparently considers herself to be the spokesperson for all things Real Housewives. Why not give us all a blow by blow of everyone since I am sure she has her opinions on how the franchise should run. I would prefer it if she would focus on her own story, which seems to have no anchor and is constantly changing with the wind.

        I don’t think I would mind Bethenny butting in with her opinion so much if she could handle the situation in the reverse. She’s very, very free with her opinions but quick to slap down anyone who does the same or is foolish enough to disagree with her. God forbid she receives some criticism. “I know this about myself already! There’s nothing new you can tell me about myself” Hmm.

She’s in a pretty good mood considering she can’t finish out the tennis season and has to use crutches to get around. She’s laying in her bed with knee iced and strumming her bass guitar….

    I seen those pictures of Brandi, wth did she do to herself? Not only was her lipstick smeared, it looked like one side of her mouth was drooping. Also, in that picture of all of them seated together, is it normal for them all to have the same overdone cheekbones? I didnt think so.

    Bethenny always has to have her say when a friend is in a battle, so of course she weighed in on puppygate. Very interesting the Rinna got advice for taking down someone she claims she likes and has no interest in taking down. Her not being able to hide her smile when anyone went after LVP is telling. I still think she is more involved than just a stander-by. JMO.

    Hmmm. For such a smart cookie, Camille’s picker seems off. I, too, hope she has a prenup.
    Here’s an uplifting story for you. A blind man fell into the tracks of the D.C. metro. The few people on the platform immediately booked it to help him out just as a train was coming. Apparently he was a large man, so it took a group effort to haul him up. Most of us are essentially kind and decent. Of that I have no doubt.
    Sorry to hear about Banjo’s lethargy. Maybe he’s responding to weather changes, too.

          Ooh! I’ve wondered about that too! I really don’t care about the size (of tomatoes, for all you knuckle heads out there) but healthy, red, through and through, yum!. I really hate store bought tomatoes! I’ll even ripen inside if the territory is too bug friendly (I don’t like poison) or a frost is looming. I’ve had great luck with cherry tomatoes (not a theme, stG) because they don’t have to grow very large, but they aren’t my favorites. I think I’ll try this approach this year, thank you Katherine 2.0!

          Thank goodness my mom still cultivates great tomatoes or I’d rarely have them. My favorite way to eat you ask? Sliced about 1/4″ with salt and pepper.

              Topsy Turvy that’s what it’s called. Bought one for my mom years ago and she did tomatoes in it for a couple of years and they were fine, but the last few years she’s been planting floweres in it and they grow too!

          Thanks for the info everyone! We had snow last week and are expecting another snow shower tonight. I’ll buy starters and try a topsy turvy, I’m a little concerned about where to hang… We have horrible winds here almost daily, especially this time of year, through the monsoon season…lol, then they start up (continue) again. I literally do not understand how our ancestors survived in certain parts of our country, northen AZ being one of them but I’m feeling determined this year!

          Last night when I was describing how I like tomatoes (and now) my mouth started (is) watering. Worst case scenario I’ll get a bunch from mom who basically spends every waking minute protecting her crop.

    I saw a 13 year old male dog on TV up for adoption. I fell in love with the old man at first sight. He has a smirky, laid back, comical, loving face. Well, it was over an hour ride and I waited too long to go apply. Somebody got him b4 me. I hope he lives his retirement years well, loved and happy in his new home. But it should’ve been mine!

    Up in the North here, the fruit and vegetables are still no good. I’m waiting for the mangoes and peaches to be in season. I bought a mango a week ago, it wasn’t sweet or juicy. It was dry and dull.

    Raining and dreary day and week here. Just waiting for Game of Thrones and Killing Eve tonight! Yay!

      A lot of thinks don’t make sense about Jenelle’s tubal ligation. Especially it happening on a weekend. The first weekend that Dickhead was back in the house it seems. I feel like an injury might have been involved or some other procedure in the general vicinity that she didn’t want to talk about. The tube tying way just one of those while we are in there, let’s do it now sort of things.

      I had a baby and didn’t expect his father to spend the night in the hospital. I could handle it! The girl in the bed next to me had visitors all day and into the night – she was fifteen years old. Can you imagine? We took the obligatory photos when grandparents visited but that was it. It was 15 years ago. Now people take pic’s of themselves hooked up to IV’s, looking sad in their hospital bed or worse they take pic’s of their sick kids and post them to SM. What’s that about?

    Tamara, I’m not going to comment on anything other than Banjo. I’ve rescued 13 cats in the last 10 years and every single time one of them reaches the point where they don’t have quality of life and can’t get around by themselves anymore, I have to make that awful decision. Only 3 died on their own. It never gets easier. The ONLY thing that helps me is the saying “We have to suffer now so they don’t have to anymore.” I’m keeping you in my thoughts ( and I know it doesn’t mean much when people say that but I don’t know what else to say ) and hoping you stay strong and really realize that you have given him an incredibly wonderful life so far, and will continue to do so. These damn animals crawl into our hearts and they never leave!!! I much prefer my cats ( we have 7 now ) to people any day. They give us so much love, much more than any human ever could. Sorry to my hubs, but it’s the God’s truth! Be strong Tamara, Banjo knows you love him more than anything.
