You better believe I have reached out to Tamara Tattles exclusive source about the vile POS that is Jen Shah. Frankly, I did not like what I heard. The Bravo suits LOVE this franchise for some unknown reason. Probably because they work cheap. They were all paid the now normal first timer fee of $2,500 per episode. So they all made around $50K for the season. BUT after the reunion, Bravo sent them all $10,000 as a thank you note. This has only happened a couple of times in the past. First during season one or two of RHOA, and again in the first season of RHOP.
My reason for reaching out was to try to get Jen Shah fucking fired from the show. Source is Source and tells it like it is, the suits think at least at this point, that all publicity is good publicity. I asked Source about the vile nature of this horrible human being, and Source said the publicity actually helps her. This is what these shows have come to. I’m not even mad at Bravo at this point. We have done this. It’s on us.
Meanwhile, our friends over at Reality Von Tease on IG remind us of Jen’s acting like her role on a reality show is somehow similar to the death of George Floyd. I can’t believe I even typed that.
They also have a statement from Koa that appears to say he is not longer dealing with Jen Shah. Thank God. Now we just need to find him a much better place to share his massive talent.
We need Koa on Project Runway ASAP. I’m going to make it my MISSION.
This is why the producers probably weren’t sweating too much over RHOSLC’s ratings. Please correct me if I’m wrong, but it’s not like their ratings were any worse than RHOM’s first season and debut seasons for other Bravo shows, and it’s just been a very different environment for RHOSLC because many more Americans have cut the cord and turned to more streaming platforms.
Also, it helps (Bravo) that they were willing to take such little pay to do the show. They’ll probably get a raise for Season 2, but I imagine their compensation will still be far below what we’re used to seeing on RHOA, RHONY, and the other more established Bravo shows.
And yes, it’s been obvious ever since the Kardashians were doing it on Bravo’s sister network (E!) that “outrage marketing” is the new hot trick to attract viewers. They’re hoping that as long as Jen Shah continues to be “problematic”, we’ll all want to watch RHOSLC to see what she does next. It’s so gross, but it’s clear that the suits at Comcast are perfectly fine with this because they’ve already done it so many times before.
As usual, you are 100% right on all counts.
In all the years I’ve watched Housewives shows, I don’t think I’ve ever taken such an immediate dislike to one or two of the “stars.” I disliked Jen and Mary from the beginning and have grown to dislike them more and more with every episode. Jen treats people so disrespectfully and just seems to believe it’s her right to do so. I hope you accomplish your mission and get her removed from the show. The additional goal of getting Koa on Project Runway would be perfection.
I should probably stop talking about Koa. I’m probably scaring him to death. lol. I am A MILLION PERCENT obsessed with this man. I want him to have his own show. He’s an amazing human and deserves the recognition.
👍 To everything you’ve written about her. She’s unstable, beyond unhinged, unwatchable and an emotional vampire.
Can you imagine what her assigned producer had to deal with? The shit he/she saw & heard?
$2500 an episode seems so low
now with season 2, they’ll get the standard 10% raise? correct?
but they dont do the show for the money, u do it for the millions of dollars of free advertising u get!!! by being paid to be on the show. WIN WIN
Exactly Cody. I read an article in Forbes where Kim Kardashian said her salary on KUWTK wouldn’t pay for her wardrobe. She did it for the other lucrative opportunities it brought her. She is expected to become a billionaire this year. Hard for me to comprehend 🤦♀️
Please, the Kardashians were paid $175,000 EACH for their final episode.
But Bravo finally realized they didn’t have to pay these nutjobs to be on the show, Everyone wants to be a housewife and they would do it for free if they had to. The days of Bravo paying big money like they did to Nene and a few others are OVER.
I agree TT that’s an incredible amount of money! But Kim was quoted as saying her wardrobe is upwards of $5 million a year to to her status. Again, just her comments 🤮🤮🤮
I am so lost and have been the whole season of RHOSLC, I am going to binge right now.
I know that it was about “Hospital smell” and the reunion I spent watching (very little) was about “Hospital smell” .
I must be missing something, perhaps episodes?
If it was renewed, I was 😲 shocked, I better binge for some idea of what the show is.
I finally saw the glass thrown which is why Sharif was so pissed?. Okay that makes sense. (Was that Jen and her acting or I guess TT is showing exactly who Jen is!! Thanks TT, great posts)
That was so overdramatic, I REALLY stand by the lack of a show that was renewed. There just is gorgeous scenery but I am truly lost and surprised by the rest.
I must be in the minority. I just don’t get it. (The show)
Sharrieff (sorry don’t like to get names wrong)
Yeah, I couldn’t connect either. It was hard to get into this show.
the good news is top chef coming back in april!!!! bad news is i can’t even pretend to watch the next 11 episodes of rhoa.
Yeah, I think I have dipped out of RHOA.
I never started watching the RHOSLC. They all look like blow up dolls in the previews, So This is the only one I have not seen. They look freaky.
She is a vile POS for sure…she needs her ass canned
I have a TT spy on location in Salt Lake City. Pictures and story coming soon.
This thrills me like I can’t even say.
I want Jen Shaw OUT.
And before the loon starts screaming Victim.. she needs to understands we don’t give a crap is she is a 7” silver Kamargi from Pluto. She’s a viscous b.tch and needs to go
Kudos to the insider
There is new video I am sure you have seen.
And it ain’t good
I am at such a loss as to why these women are, and care, to be friends with Jen.
You can’t watch RHOSL On Demand without paying for it. I won’t be. I go to bed early, and I liked to watch the shows later, maybe a couple of times. That is why I missed so many episodes. I don’t feel close to any of them or like I even know them that well. Thank goodness for TT recaps!
Jen Shaw is awful. Sharif either has Stockholm Syndrome or is quietly just as crazy as she is.
Maybe he’s just happy that Jen has this show to keep her busy…… you know the way Kelsey Grammer wanted Camille to stay busy filming …… 🤔 hmm. Just sayin’
You do realize that Forbes ONLY source for all Kardashian financials is Pimpmomager Kris ?
Kim is not worth a billion. Neither is Kylie.
Obviously
Dallas housewives are surviving without LeeAnne who was super crazy, threatening and racist in her behaviors. Jen is LeeAnne ten times over. She needs to go- this woman is just too abusive and mean.
Agreed. I like a good villian but LeeAnne, Jen Shah and Kelly Doyd are the kind of unwatchable villian. I usually watch with production and editing in mind, but these women who show that they are as ugly offscreen as they are on screen are just unwatchable.
Can anyone tell me please what happened? I stopped watching because it was just too stupid.
