Have Any Of You Met Any Bravo Folks?

January 1, 2022 by tamaratattles 54 Comments

I’ve haven’t had many. I was friendly with Kenya for a bit, until I exclusively reported on her marriage to Marc in St. Lucia. So was REALLY pissed about that, because she had not told Bravo or me or anyone really other than Brandon and her Aunt about it. Not sure why it was such a secret. She was very sweet until she wasn’t and we had a bit a girl talk on the phone here and there. Now, I am persona non gratia.

The only time I was at an even with housewives was when a friend invited me to some movie premiere sort of thing. There were signs up about filming but I really didn’t see many cameras. Kenya Moore and Kandi Burruss were both there doing an appearance. It was a long time ago. They introduced the movie or something. Afterward, there was a meet and greet but I was not interested in waiting in line, and like to keep a low profile. My main take away was THEY ARE BOTH TINY. I was shocked at how small they were. I know they say TV ads twenty pounds. But, I never quite believe it. Kandi being shorter looks A LOT larger than she is. She’s tiny!

Oh and of course there is Sheree Whitfield, who dragged me to court in TWO counties since she didn’t get the outcome she wanted the first time. I’m not sure that is even legal. But. let me just tell you, it was HYSTERICAL! In the second county, ATLIEN and FUNKY DINEVA were there as “co-defendants” of sorts. LOL. Sheree is really, really, really, really dumb. My attorney dragged her. She claimed she was “the contractor” on Chateau Sheree. My attorney asked if she had a certificate of occupancy and she had no clue what that was. She said her grown kids were afraid to play in the dirt after school because I was stalking them. Um, it’s a construction site. The walls were not even up yet? Why would two tweens be playing in the dirt on a construction site after school? It was CRAZY PANTS.

This will DEFINATELY keep you reading for a while if you need some really interesting posts. You should scroll all the way back to 2012 and have a nice drink and lots of snacks for this!

    I’ve been FB friends with two that didn’t last long on Bravo, one from DC and one from Miami, and had a personal friendship for a few years with the mother in law of a Bravo cast member. We never met in person but I had her personal contact info and she had mine. That ended over politics unfortunately. The DC lady liked to DM fans and was a little weird. The Miami lady and I also had a falling out over politics.

    In the early days it was easier to befriend cast members then they all got smarter and kept their distance.

    Tamara weren’t you friendly with some of the Shah’s cast? Speaking to them personally not just an online thing?

      Oh yeah! Most all of them before season one even aired. In the end it was down to Asa and Merce. We talked a lot in DMs. But once Asa left the show and had her baby she wasn’t that into talking. Merce got married and had a baby too, and we just drifted apart. I still DM Merce once in a while.

      I’m friends with Lea Black on Twitter. We mostly talk about politics. I used to talk about books with Kyle.

        Oh and I am good friends with Captain Lee online and email. We never talk about Below Deck. Mostly just checking in to see how the other is doing. He’s had a shit ton of health stuff lately šŸ™ and we also support each others charities. I don’t think I even told him but he had a birthday recently and I made a donation to his favorite charity in his name. He’s a good guy.

        I’ve been in contact with some Southern Charm people over the years. I was just posting about who I had seen in real life.

    Every one from every season of Below Deck and many of the housewives. The housewives in general are pretty tiny people. One of my really good friends was the first chief stew and helped cast Below Deck.

    A few of the chefs from Top Chef.

    My bestie was on Project Runway and Project

    It’s so weird watching your friends on TV. My husband was actually on HBOs Ballers and that was really weird.

    I’ve met Kyle R two different times. Once was about 10 years ago at a club in Hollywood at the CD release party of a mutual friend. I took a photo with her and she and Mauricio were seated next to me at the show. Talk about tiny!! And Mauricio is very handsome. I saw her again years later in a furniture store in Carlsbad, CA. She didn’t remember me of course but I said hi. She’s very personable.

    Ive spent plenty of time with Elizabeth Vargas. She is a sweetheart. I’ve met Kyle and Mo (and Faye). We watched a concert in a suite with them. I used to work out at same gym as Terry and heather dubrow (not cut lol). I’ve been to Shannon’s house a few times. Saw David Beador at the grocery store, early morning. He was in line behind me.. And saw Gretchen and Slade at a restaurant- she’s vampy as ever..
    I think that’s it.. Can you guess where I live? haha

      I was happy to see Kelly Dodd and Boring Wind leave.

      But I would have liked to have seen Elizabeth Vargas stick around. It was really brave of her to come out about the cult. Too bad she confided in Brown Wind. (I REALLY ABHORRED DR. DEB. What a shit-poor excuse for a mother!)

      Plus, Elizabeth rescued dogs. Bravo didn’t give her an opportunity to share her life after the divorce gag was over. I think her story would have been an interesting one. And, she wasn’t a big screamer — another positive thing.

      I also like Faye. Dominick Dunne had many nice things to say about her.

    No Bravo “stars” but tons of A list actors/clebrities who bought second homes and/or vacation in my quaint little Montana rough western town that also perfected the fine art of giving them sushi restaurants and art galleries.

    The decent, kind ones: Brad Pitt, Jeff Bridges, Jane Fonda, Michael Keaton, Whoopi Goldberg, Diane Sawyer, Meg Ryan, Margot Kidder. The snobs: Barbara Walters, Peter Fonda, Ted Turner, Craig Schaefer, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Dennis Quaid, Tom Brokaw, + everyone who is a member of the esteemed exclusive billionaires club – The Yellowstone Club.

    Oh, almost forgot, Cloe Kardashian put their SUv in the Interstate ditch on my work commute route. I actually passed them on my way home but a wrecker was there and they were simply stuck in the snow. Never realized who it was. Just thought “More rich people who don’t know how to drive in winter weather conditions. So does that count? LOL.

      P.S. Add John Mayer to the snob/jerk list. He is not a nice person in real life. Also met Katie Perry during her time with him. She came to Montana often as he was residing there. She wasn’t so friendly while around him. I could tell he controlled her. She looked to him before speaking. She spent her time at the dinner table trying to entertain him or please him. I personally heard him utter a racial slur against the First People, American Indians. Gag worthy guy.

          He said: “Why are all indians ugly?” He got called out on the spot by my friend who is an anthropologist who works closely with the First People. Mayer just sauntered off and lost himself in the crowd of partiers at the event.

            I live in Missoula. I’m guessing you were in Bozeman from your posts. You’re right about ppl not knowing how to drive in winter weather. See it all the time. The key is to drive slowly. Btw, my brother almost hit Andie McDowell downtown one day as she was Jaywalking. Also i met a Top Chef Chris CJ Jacobsen at James Bar. Got a pic with hm. He’s very nice. Most ppl had no clue who he was. He was asking me advice on how to pick up a girl there. He’s very funny and very tall.
            Also I was in rehab with the late Rush Limbaugh in Arizona in 2003. He was very cool and entertaining. There’s more to the story but too much to say here.

      Brad Pitt was a client at the agency I worked at when I fIrst moved to Los Angeles. He was so down to earth and nice. It was my first job, and I was the receptionist. This was before Thelma and Louise. It was obvious he was going to be a huge star. Besides being beautiful, he just lit up a room.

    Years ago, Stassi insulted me when I questioned her being so entitled and rude to her friends on Vanderpump Rules. This may have been in 2013 or so. It was some online celebrity chat and she didn’t appreciate my tone and called me ā€œa nobodyā€. She was such a cow to everybody who submitted a question.

    I used to be a casting director, and back in 2004 I was casting a project where I needed models who could act. Joanna Krupa came in and auditioned for me. The only reason I remember her is because her manager and I have a mutual friend. She was very nice, but the truth is the majority of actors/actresses that had auditioned for me has been nice for the obvious reason. What struck me about Joanna was how much she had her shit together. She’s very grounded and very smart. Noelle Reno from Ladies of London also auditioned for the same project.I remember her because she was exactly the type my producer was looking for. She was very young, very skinny, and much prettier than she was by the time she filmed LOL. My producer already knew her and had an unkind comment, which I will not repeat. I don’t remember Brandi Granville coming in for that project, but considering she was a working model, looking to be an actress, I wouldn’t be surprised if she did and I don’t remember.

    For some reason, Joanna Krupa and I have chatted on Twitter in the past. I am not a celebrity person (meaning I don’t fan out over any of them) but I’ve always respected that Joanna is/was so nice and just so decent. I don’t remember why/what caused us to chat because it’s been so long ago, but she’s a real person. She still follows me on Twitter but it could be because she isn’t on social media much (I rarely see her post). Anyway, I respect her and felt very protective of her during the Brandi Glanville crap.

    Long story short, we haven’t met in person, but have chatted a bit. I’ve also snarked on a few of them that I’ve dared to respond but… they usually don’t šŸ˜€

    I’ve seen Emily defend herself against the assholes who call her out as being HUGE. But I am pretty sure none of them have ever met her IRL.

    Reading here how tiny the other RHs are, I wonder just how big or small Emily is. She looks really tall, but maybe because many of them are so short. Maybe she’s 5’5ā€ or something.

      Emily is probably a size 6 or 8. Most of the rest of them are 0 or 2. Kandi is probably a 4 at most. It’s unbelievable to see how tiny they are in real life. It’s really quite shocking. Most of them look normal sized on TV.

    I live in the OC so lots of hW sightings.

    Before heather was a dubrow, she was singing ina big band and dating the owner. She sang at a bar on monday nights
    She has a lovely voice, but shes an ahole. Shes tall. She wasnt skinny back then, but thin. All the bandmates hated her because she was a snobby jerk even before she had any money.

    I’ve seen vicki and megan at fashion island. Megan is so tall and skinny she looks like an alien. Vicki is also tall but normal weight.

    I ran into shannon at antonellos one night. Said hello, she was a bit tipsy.

    Pandora served me at villa Blanca.

    I have a friend where kid goes to same school as Lydia’s. Apparently Lydia is a real mean girl.

    OC is pretty small if you go to the right places.

    Stassi and Kristen came to WEM for some promotional thing in 2014, maybe to promote the show or their wine? Not sure. I didn’t like Stassi already from her previous online comments to me, so I didn’t try to get an autograph. Tons of people waited in line for them. They were both super skinny and looked like coke girls to me. They were fake AF. They played nice to the crowd but complained about not being in LA weather. That’s the closest Bravo interactions I’ve had. Everyone else I met was by accident and unwanted, like Chad Kroeger from Nickleback. Nobody impressive.

    OMG! Almost forgot! I am pretty sure I saw Marlo at Big Sky Montana once years ago (Ted Turner’s old stomping grounds… just saying). This was before the exclusive Yellowstone Club days. The rich and famous now have their own private ski resort next door. Back in the day, they all hung out at Big Sky. Didn’t know who she was at the time but she totally stood out because she was striking, attractive and black. Not too many glam black women totally made up and decked out in designer clothes hanging out at a remote ski resort in Montana. I only put it together years later while watching RHOA and kept trying to figure out why she looked familiar. Light bulb came on when I learned of the alleged affair.

    I have not, but my husband has. He is a retired yacht captain, so he has encountered a few.

    Hochstein rented a boat for one of his Halloween parties from a company that my husband delivered yachts for. My husband delivered the boat and sat on it while people came on and partied. He said there were tons of people dressed only in lingerie. He also said he was the only ā€œregular clothedā€ person. He has some other stories about that night too.

    Adrienne worked for him as a chef after her first season of Below Deck.

    He has met Captain Lee a few times.

    He was a boat driver/ā€œfriendā€ of a husbands on wife swap.

    He worked on the set of Entourage the movie for two days and captained a boat. He shuttled the four main actors too.

    He has met other famous people too and has tons of stories.

    We now own a custom woodworking company and reached out the Captain Sandy about sending her one of our custom pieces. She was VERY nice and offered to post about us on social media. Our business took off after that, and he never got the chance. He still plans on sending something to her.

    His one friend is a yacht chef and has cooked for several famous people like Tiger Woods. She also came onto a boat after Adam had just left. She said the crew did not think very highly of him at all.

    So….I’m minding my own business at a Jazz Brunch in Atlanta in 2018 I think. In any case, someone comes up behind me and palm-slaps my arse with BOTH HANDS. I’m extremely unnerved and started and look around and it’s DR. HEAVENLY!!! She then turns to Quad and says…..I TOLD YOU IT WAS REAL. Quad had just pledged the Sorority I’m a member of and I’m sure that’s why she was there and Heavenly was there with her. When I realized who it was, all I could do was stare stupidly at her (because if it had been ANYBODY else I probably would have called security but I was so shocked I couldn’t speak for a second. When I finally regained my senses I told her that I loved her and watched the show (which I only sporadically watched, but after meeting her, I became an avid watcher). She then proceeds to talk to me about “Daddy” and tell me how all the ladies on the show thinks she’s stupid because she relies on him so much etc….and asked me what I thought. WELL……you could have bought me for a dollar because she was so sweet, so down-to-earth, and so trusting that I told her what I really thought. (I actually LOVE her husband as he always seems so respectful of her [even when she’s acting up] and he also seems so even tempered and measured in his words and actions). I told her that and that she shouldn’t really GAF what other people say because they don’t live in her house or pay her bills. We actually had a rather lengthy conversation and talked about some Black girl professional stuff that I won’t divulge, and it was a really a great conversation. I don’t know if she was so transparent because she was tipsy (we all were….as you know, there’s NOTHING better than getting tipsy early on a Sunday and then going home to some good …..well nevermind, you get the picture.) The funny prologue to the story is that she thought I was a Pastor (that might be why she was so transparent and open with me), and when I told her I wasn’t a Pastor, but an attorney, she laughed and said “same thing only better.” I’ve me several stars through the years but Dr. Heavenly is the only Bravo star I’ve met and she was really quite lovely.

    P.S. I have the arse that I’ve hated all my life that people pay money to acquire now. I also have a naturally small waist, and it’s fascinating to people that see me because I’m so disproportionate. So, it’s normal for people to stare at me. ONLY A FEW PEOPLE in my life have been bold enough to touch it.

    I met Ramona at sort of an upscale event in NYC. I felt like a fish out of water. She was sort of a condescending bitch, but then nice. Off topic, but I also ran into Bill Clinton randomly while taking a walk on MV. He had a really firm handshake and was strikingly handsome. I mean really, really handsome. This was decades ago.

    I live in OC, CA so I run into most of them from time to time. Emily is actually a nice person. We used to go to the same blowout lounge before Covid. Run into Tamara & Eddie out to eat. Funny story about Eddie 1 of my best friends & I were in the desert for the weekend about 6 months before he starting dating Tamara. He bought us drinks & my friend & him hit it off. They were making out at the pool & it ended there bc my friend used to tell people she was a writer instead of saying she was an attorney (people always ask for advice hence the writer story) & he told her he was an attorney which took her about 5 min to figure out he was lying. 1 day Vicki & Jeana came into my office bc Jeana needed to schedule an appointment for her ex hubby well when I didn’t have something that day Vicki said you need to make something for him bc we are on TV. I explained to her I could give Jeana a call if we get a cancellation for that day but I couldn’t cancel another patient to fit in a non emergency patient. That’s when she screamed out me that she was on RHOC & I should do more. I calmly explained to her I had never seen her show as I didn’t watch trash tv. I honestly hadn’t at that time now I’m really tv junkie. She huffed out the door. Jeana apologized. My dad used to be good friends with Jeana but they got in a tiff over him using a different realtor bc she hadn’t sold his house in 6 months. New realtor sold it the 1st month. Jeana is very nice in person but a little ditzy. 1 of my employees used to serve at an upscale Mexican food restaurant right outside the gates of Coto & Vicki would come in without a reservation & throw a temper tantrum if she was told the wait time was an hour & request to talk to a manager & he’d make her wait the whole wait. šŸ˜‚ Met Gretchen & Slade at a party shortly after they had started dating he was friendly her not so much. Ran into Kristen, Stassi & Katie from VPR at a musical festival & they were all extremely thin.

    In another world I worked at a radio station, and my boss (on-air talent) and I went to the BET Awards press junket in 2009 to interview people. The entire RHOA cast at the time aside from Kim Z were there. It was pretty funny, my boss being a straight guy had no idea what to ask them, so I had to feed him all the questions. They were all pretty much how you’d expect them; Nene was sassy as always but the fame hadn’t completely gone to her head just yet. Kandi was probably the nicest and slipped my boss a promo CD for an album or single she was putting out the time, I don’t quite remember.

    Monique Samuels and I have never met but we are friendly on Twitter.

    I have seen a ton of the RHOBH women over the years, usually at one of LVP’s restaurants. One night at Pump, Lisa, Kyle, Mauricio, Ken, James Kennedy, Josh Flagg and his now-husband Bobby were all there for something that I assume was Bravo-related.

      I’ve definitely seen the Toms from VPR out and about too, usually drinking. My group of friends and I also had a shitty run-in with Richardson (while he was working) at Tom Tom once.

    I met Captain Lee and Mary Anne in Charleston when they came for a “Cruise with Kate Chastain & Captain Lee” promotion (which never happened due to covid). It was one of those stand in line things where you take a photo real quick and move on. Mary Anne was there observing, so my husband and I spoke to her for half an hour, and I found her extremely warm and friendly. She answered all our questions and shared a LOT of personal info, like her cancer experience, and the side effects of her treatment, and the fact that Lee quit his boat gig when she had her surgery. (She and I both had gynecological cancers.) She is very real and down to earth and I found myself wanting to be friends with her – she’s just fun! The line panned out and Captain Lee came over but basically said very little to us, just to her directly. A few days later I went to his book signing and was able to ask him a question or two. Again, Mary Anne stood there entertaining everyone and chatting them up after they spoke to her husband. She’s one of those people that squeezes arm when you’re saying goodbye. Very warm. I can see why he calls her his better half.

    I met Kenya at a hair show in Detroit. She was so sweet! She personally took my order for her hair care products although there was staff available. I was even able to take a picture with her.

    My sister was really good friends with Jill Zarin and then dina from RHONJ. She appears in some of the footage of early parties. She and Jill had some kind of falling out but I think she occasionally DM with Dina. The falling out with Jill was awful in some way around the time when Jill broke up with Bethenny. Which was interesting because Bethany always hated my sister.

    Years ago before she was a housewife I ran into Kenya Moore while I was vacationing in Miami. She was very pretty and sweet. She took pictures with whoever asked. I have dined at John Tesar and Tiffany Derry from Top Chef restaurants and they were both in attendance when I went.

    I don’t know if it counts but Chloe Dao (winner from Project Runway back when it was good) has a store here in Houston. She carries a lot of really cute going out kind of dresses and some super cute summer/resort style stuff for the young-ish. I’ve shopped there for years with my daughters since I somehow got invited to the shop’s opening and met her back when it first opened. She is still on the floor of the boutique. I Haven’t been in there for a few years mainly because of covid. I did pass by it the other day and noticed she’s still in business. She also does a ton of stuff for local charities. Super nice gal. And still very talented.

    Hi. I met Marlo Hampton at a cigar bar… cool encounter. She took a picture with me.

    And I briefly spoke to Nene over the phone, once. She was cool, too.
