Sorry for the delay. I think I got my days mixed up and missed a lot of recaps last night. I’m not feeling well and that just makes the anxiety and depression worse. I need to try and eat something but the anxiety just makes me throw it up. It’s annoying. Also, I feel like I have a fever but I don’t. But I want do the RHOP Recap for part four of the reunion, because I really want to watch. I’ll try to get to Porsha Family Matters and Below Deck ASAP. Regarding Porsha’s show, it looks like we got three half hour episodes dumped at once which is weird because Bravo seemed really thrilled by the episodes they got.
I’m Bored
Nicki Minaj surprises the ladies and gets right to throwing shade. She starts coming for Ashley for “not having a story line.” She had a storyline, she had a whole ass baby to take care of! Even Candiace is sticking up for Ashley! That’s a shocker! I don’t agree with anything Nicki is saying about Ashley or Robin. She has a very odd take on things. I am already to turn this off, but it’s probably because I am a huge bitch when I don’t feel well. Maybe it gets better? Basically, Nicki comes for Gizelle’s looks? Then, she justified it by pointing out that Gizelle comes for Karen’s age a lot. Gizelle seems like she is still in love with Pastor Holy Whore. She claims she got Jamal’s questionable church started. Apparently, Wendy read Nicki’s cards with questions before they started.

Nicki was pretty nice to Mia. Mia admits that she and G have threeways. I just need her to get to the part where she reads Candiace for filth. Instead she is going in for the husbands, Michael Darby, Mia’s husband and Ray. This is unnecessary. Mia handles herself very well. There are UNCONFIRMED rumors on social media that Mia has been dropped for the next season. I like this cast as a group. However, this episode is a snorefest.
Nicki Comes For Candiace
Oh here comes the Candiace reads, and she immediately starts with the triangle tissues. Candiace is really upset that her mother said horrible things about Brown Dick. Then they talk about Candiace’s song. I saw her on Kelly Clarkson or something and she totally lipsynced her appearance. They play one of her videos, totally autotuned. Nicki knows it too and asks her to sing now. Candiace clearly doesn’t want to. Everyone tries to get her to do it. Andy is laughing backstage. She finally does it and I thought I thought she sounded way better than expected. The ladies agree.

They take a bathroom break and Brown Dick comes out to comfort Candiace. He is pissed that Nicki made her sing on the spot. Andy comes out to point out she did great. It’s time to finish the reunion. Andy comes back out. The reunion ends with a shot of tequila for all. So, am I just being a cranky bitch, or was that underwhelming?
Ugh. For all that RHOP gave us this past season, it seems like Bravo stretched out yet another reunion way too long. IMHO, this and the last RHOBH reunion could have at least been compressed into livelier three episode packages.
But then again, at least RHOP gave us something new with Nicki Minaj taking over hosting duties for the final episode. It was so interesting when Foxtel tapped different Australian celebrities to host the Melbourne reunions, and I hope this Nicki Minaj hosting gig means that Bravo will try some new things to shake up the reunions and break the monotony.
This did not need to be 4 episodes. This one sucked. Hated Nicki. I was impressed with Candiace’s voice, which shocked me. I hope they never have Nicki co-host another reunions.
Agreed.,Nikki was a bitch and totally had her favorite. I don’t care for Candace but she totally made fun of the her numbers on the billboards and her song. She asked our Ashley wants to love about your husband? I don’t have to like Mike to think that was horribly rude. Told Ashley she should have stayed home? Not a fan and they were all scared to cross her because they know they would have gotten their butts whooped on social media.
They brought Nikki on because she has 160plus million followers on insta
Bravo is CLOUTING
I was actually disgusted with how someone as accomplished as Nikki could belittle someone just getting started putting out material in the music biz. Did anyone catch her disgusted look when Candice said she sold 20thousand plus albums, Nikki was upset. THATS SICK
TT I am in the same boat with you re: anxiety where I too get physically sick and everything comes up (even just drinking water) when I am trying to get ready to go out. You’d think at least I’d have lost some weight from it. But no silver lining. Lol
My friends have been gracious and get it but I feel bad for always making them wait on me. So usually I end up bailing. It’s so odd because I used to be super social now I’m OK just staying in bed and watching TV.
Sending you lots of good energy.
Awww honey. I get it. I’m 64yo and been that way my whole life. Hang in there friend. I’m rooting for you ❣♥️❣
Thank you!
Trying my best, one day at a time. 🙂
Ms Minaj is a major MEH🥱🥱🥱
I don’t have anything against Nicki Minaj but she was the WORST. Where Andy acts like a bored sophomore, Nicki was a barracude – just downright rude, mean, and ignorant. I do not need to hear about those women and their sex lives – and they spent far too much time on that subject. Also the ignorant shaming/attacks on Michael Darby (specifically) really turned me away. How dare anyone put Ashley in that position? I’m not a ‘fan’ of any of them but c’mon… how ’bout a little common decency? The worst part was that each of the women was put in the position of weakness and surprise – therefore not prepared (or able) to defend themselves properly. Having said that, it was like a train wreck and I watched the whole thing play out. Still disappointed though – those women didn’t deserve that
I completely agree with you. What a terrible waste of time to watch NM belittle and be rude to each and every woman. I don’t know her music and after her hosting display on this episode I will never seek out listening to anything she performs.
Not quite everyone, Karen got a pass. If it was everyone it would have stank way less. And I think Candidates sounded great but she didn’t need validation from NM. Girlfriend already got praise from Toni Braxton an Anita Baker.
💯
I had a hard time understanding half of what Nicki said. Tried to put on the closed caption, but it didn’t work. Besides having an annoying voice, I didn’t like the way she went after Ashley.
This was a hour I can never get back. It was just boring. The reads were underwhelming and why wouldn’t Nicki read Wendy for attempting to side step her by reading the questions?
Completely underwhelming.
I REALLY cannot stand Candiace AT ALL, but I loved it when all of the ladies cheered after she sang a cappella — no autotune.
I too was impressed by that. She lipsynced the whole thing on Kelly Clarkson. She should have just sang it. She actually does have a lovely singing voice. Perhaps the best of the housewives. And I am a Candiace hater, lol.
Candiace did very well indeed. EVERY ONE OF THE LADIES ENTHUSIASTICALLY CLAPPED after her acapella. Eve Mia and Ashley applauded and I thought it was the best moment of the entire reunion because everyone was FINALLY on one accord. Nikki was OK. I think we DID get some questions answered that the everyday person would like to know and it would be difficult for Andy to pull some of those questions off without lookin like a TOTAL a-hole. Nikki came across as a a-hole too, but she’s Nikki Minaj, so it’s more than OK . Nik was a bit hard on Michael, but Ashley defended him well, so that went OK too. All in all, I think we could have appreciated it more if this had happened in PART III because errrrrrrrbody knows this reunion didn’t need to be more than 3 episodes. Lastly, Wendy’s fake laughing when Nikki asked about Eddie following all the booty girls let ERRRRRRRBODY see just how fake and ridiculous she is. She’s sad and needs to go to therapy. Actually, all of them could benefit (Gizelle, Ashley and Robyn already go), but Wendy needs to go most of all. In closing, I give this 4th installment of what should have been a 3 or TWO installment reunion a 6. P.S,,….I’ve always thought that Robyn was the most NATURALLY beautiful housewife and Nikki obviously on the same page…..(for very different reasons th0ugh :).
I must be the only one because I enjoyed Nikki as she asked questions that I wanted to know too. I think the question about Wendy’s husband and the booty models is something Andy would probably never ask. I didn’t even know about that until Nikki asked it. I’m also sure she was asking questions that her fans wanted to know too. I also don’t think she was rude to Ashley by asking her questions about her her’ husband. Micheal comes up at every reunion and they talked about his infatuation with Juan many times. Now Nikki may have been misleading about Ashley having no storyline, but really what else did she have this year other than stirring the pot? Early in the season, it was about her journey into giving birth again and her mental state and how it was different this time. After that, we didn’t see much of her except that lovely dovey “interaction” with Michael at the Watergate. I’m still blown away that he used to own that. I could have had two hours of Nikki because I know there is footage that we didn’t see, like her full response to Wendy checking her cards which was low in my opinion.
On another note, I don’t know exactly why Chris was mad. People don’t like Candiace, absolutely hate her, but she sounded great and she’s out there as a indie artist selling albums, streams, and downloads. Did I think Nikki may have been a little shady with her questions about the numbers, and the reactions we saw on her face, yes. I also thought she was doing calculations, like “Well let’s see. Is that pretty good for an independent artist? Is that realistic today for a first timer?” Anyway, these are my thoughts. I do wish they would have a behind the scenes episode like they’ve done with Atlanta in the past.
It looks like they will have a secrets revealed episode next Sunday according to my DVR
Imma gonna pass on that nonsense.
Tamara, it’s upsetting that you never feel well. When you said it feels like you have a fever but you don’t. It reminded me of when I said the exact same thing to my ENT. She said that is a factor of chronic sinusitis and sinus infections.
Did you have your sinuses checked out? Sinus problems can really make one feel awful. Have you seen a good ENT?
Oh.good.god. Here we go
lol
2 reunion episodes would’ve been sufficient.🥱
I did not know who this Nikki person was. I recall googling her a week ago when I saw Andy fan girling over her as if Elvis was in the building.
Like other commenters, I’m underwhelmed by her appearance on the show. Sometimes, it’s better not to hype things up so much.
I thought this was the best part of the reunion tbh. Nicky was messy and came in hot with her twitter takes, but whatever she’s not alone. At least the cast was engaging, unlike the first three parts.
Definitely an anticlimactic ending to the reunion. Nikki as host wasn’t nearly as interesting as they hyped her up to be. And she was so far off with some of her observations!! Most noticeably the “chemistry “ between Juan and Robyn. Where? What show was she watching??
I read some stuff on social media today and people were reading Nickin Minaj for filth. When Candiace’s husband came out at the end and tried to stop her relentless attacks on Candiace, her Bratz or whatever her crazed fan call themselves all started THREATENING Chris online. Nicki did nothing to stop it.
Also, people where really pissed at her for talking trash about someone’s husband, probably Chris again. Then, because I don’t pay Nicki the least bit of attention…. I’m not into music that much… and certainly not anything from the last two decades… so I had NO IDEA that while she was trashing other people’s husbands, Allegedly, HER HUSBAND IS A CONVICTED CHILD RAPIST and Allegedly so is her brother!
So who is she to be belittling the husbands on this show?
Also A LOT of people were also pissed about her implications that Gizelle and Robyn have a sexual relationship.
She was just awful.
She WAS AWFUL. But that means — in this case — she did a great job.
Andy said, unlike a journalist/objective interviewer, Nicki WAS ALLOWED to have an opinion.
What I would like to know are how many of the questions/views were Nicki’s and how many were production’s. Was she just a big shill for Andy?
On that note, what I would LOVE is for the next RHOA reunion to feature a panel of recappers allowed to ask THEIR questions and having THEIR opinions. Lead panelist would be TT, and two more good ones. Maybe Claudia Jordan. (Just not the RECAP/FAKE gossip site that shall not be named.)
Yes to TT hosting a reunion!!
I saw somewhere that Candiace didn’t want to sing and stormed off. Not sure if it is true but judging by her lack of live performances, it could be. I liked Nicki asking the questions because she asked thing Andy never would. Although I liked it as a one off and do not want this to become regular on any of the franchises.
