RHOSLC Recap: The Miseducation of Mary Cosby

January 3, 2022 by tamaratattles 84 Comments

RHOSLC RecapI’m just getting this up so I can go back to bed and cry about Betty White dying while Hallmark is airing all of her shows, It’s up to the Golden Girls now. So this will just be my random thoughts rather than a RHOSLC recap. More like if we watched it together.

I’m bored and we are going to get to trashing Mary and her racism is soon. But, I am not in the mood for this ridiculousness. Not today, Satan. sometimes I love this show. Sometimes I love to hate this show. Sorry. Fast forwarded Lisa and her Professional photog shit. Ditto Whitney who I love, but her voice is annoying. Oh look, someone actually has a mother. Jen Shah is doing the most to look saintly. ROFLMAO. No girl. You are going to prison.  I feel like Bravo gave her the bags and the stuff for the homeless bags. Also, don’t cancel me, but her mother is white? And she is proclaiming to be Samoan or whatever. I need to see her Daddy. I’m sorry  if that makes me an awful person, but she is the one who dragged her mama on the show for sympathy.

Lisa Is The Most Boring Housewife EVER

I’m not going to lie I am fast forwarding through most of this.  I’m having an IDGAF night. Mary apparently can’t deal with her own coat.  Lisa is pissed that Mary is even there. BECAUSE, criminal. Whitney SLAYS whatever event this is. I also, I feel like the real housewives have ruined Louis Vuitton. I would NEVER wear red bottoms at this point. Sorry to those of you who do, and you know  leave the house for shit, but no. Now they just seem tacky and showing off to me. If you want to wear incredibly overpriced shoes to impress…. um… I’m sure there may be someone. It’s the rich people you want to impress and they will know.

Finally,  Mary gets called out on her continued racism. Mary doubles down on “loving slanted eyes.”  The she claims, AS A BLACK WOMAN to not know that slanted eyes is a racist thing. Some Meredith is getting the bad edit on this. LEAVE. MEREDITH. ALONE!  I’m bored. Whitney wants to keep the racial conversation going. We go back to the “Mexican Thug” stuff. Okay, I am not sure what Meredith is wearing but JESUS GOD. WHAT IS THAT? And why is she trying to run after Mary and console her? Meredith is my person on this show and now I need a new one. I feel like I am tripping on acid watching this nonsense half drunk in the middle of the night. Anyway, Mary continues to deny her Mexican Thug stuff. Now go buy yourself some Wild Rose products.  I’d send you the links, but there doesn’t appear to be any.  I thought I was going to bed, but, the storms are back. FUCK.

    Good enough recap for this one tonight. You hit all of the highlights. I wondered the same thing about Jen’s mother. I got thrown when Whitney said that the party was for her “Brand Ambassadors,” which is usually a term associated with MLM’s.

        I just did a Google search of her husband and he’s been connected to MLM’s for years. He’s being sued for his connection to one of them. I think this is an MLM and it may not turn out that well for Whitney, and that’s a shame because I really like her and her husband.

          The company Whitney’s husband, Justin, works for is being sued. Justin was originally named in the suit but was later removed. So, no, Whitney’s husband is not associated with any lawsuits atm.

          MLM stands for Multi-Level Marketing. Not all MLMs are illegal pyramid schemes but some are. Tha main difference between a legal and illegal MLM is legal ones actually sell a product. Many MLMs are quite successful, especially beauty products. Like Avon, Beautycounter, Amway, and Mary Kay.

      Look at her products. I tried signing up just to see what it was all about. It Is basically a MLM. When everyone first started investigating the cast last season it came out that both Whitney and her husband run MLM’s. As I understand it, Utah and Nevada have relaxed laws regarding MLM’s and call centers etc. Thats probably why Jen, Whitney, Justin was running her business there.

      Just a shot in the dark while I am writing this. Maybe those laws may also protect Mary and her shady church dealings.

I wonder if she’ll have any morsel of remorse or if she’s going to play that oh I really didn’t know, I didn’t mean it facade she uses to deflect her bullshit. God I can not stand a hypocrite. And I really hate to say this, but she’s just a straight-up bitch in a really really bad way!

    Betty White was a National Treasure. She went out in style giving 2021 the finger. She also had the last laugh on People magazine, dying at 99 while they published their big 100th headline. She also gave us the best feminist line I have ever heard: “While do people say get a set of balls? Balls are weak and sensitive. I say get a vagina. Those things can take a pounding!”
    God bless Betty White. Fuck those petty red shoe, bird outfit, shallow women. Put them up against Betty White and you see the true character of these vapid women.

    LOGO TV is currently airing every RuPaul’s Drag Race episode leading up to the new season which starts on Friday and I couldn’t help but laugh out loud seeing Meredith in that plucked flamingo dress. She needs to be read for filth for wearing that! The dress left more feathers on the floor each time she moved more than the road runner getting away from the coyote. Was it a Marks Brooks creation?

    $300K on that rebrand?! I would have expected a better venue, better product packaging and messaging. All I saw was some amber glass dropper bottles and clear pump tube bottles, both of which are so played out and common. Nothing about it stands out. Maybe less money on “Brand Ambassadors” aka… Instagram Influencers and more money on better packaging.

    So good. Meredith doing Mary a huge favor by taking the heat off her racism and making everything about herself, yet Mary not seeing the break she just caught and deciding to leave, Heather then stirring the pot by telling Lisa that she shouldn’t let Mary get between her and Meredith, and then Lisa going around desperate for an alliance making things worse on all fronts with Mary calling her two-faced and Meredith lashing out her. All the while Angie being fabulous in the background.

    And that preview of Lisa screaming at Jen lol. This is the best kind of chaos. Even the fashion is chaotic and entertaining.

I think Meredith’s a fake. Mary is a criminal. Jen is a criminal. Whitney is adorable and real. Heather is adorable and real. Lisa is sexy and I kinda like her also sorta hate her. Who am I forgetting?? The newbie- Jennie I love her. Aaand her kids. Jesus, they’re funny!

    Great episode. I actually did like Mary for exactly 3 episodes this season, and now I’m sad because she’s such a strangely quirky personality, nothing that we’ve seen before on Bravo, and she made great tv. I like housewives who wear expensive clothes and have money to burn. Isn’t that what the whole premise the show is based on? Yes, I realize how many people must be stepped on to maintain that lifestyle. That makes me sad.

    Her comments about slanted eyes were not appropriate, it’s challenging to compliment people of color on race specific traits, and this is where she went wrong. She should have left it at “I love your eyes” instead of referring to them as slanted. Even the word almond as a descriptive trait is cringy. Mary just didn’t know, and I wanted to be kinder in judging her based on her own ignorance, but the comment about Mexicans just makes it clear how sheltered Mary is, and how little of the world she understands. I don’t think Mary gets out much and I think she may not have any real friends in her life from whom she could learn. There’s no forgiving her ignorance because we see how she continues to hurt people around her by not understanding society.

    Meredith dressed up like a cracked out Big Bird in that ridiculous purple outfit. She’s easily the worst dressed with those stupid blazers (Lisa, too). Why are blazers a thing? It was hilarious how Meredith called out Lisa for constantly screaming, are we seeing cracks in their friendship?

    Whitney put all her family’s savings into her skin care line rebrand, it’s a scary risk, and I’m wondering how much this pays off. Kim Zolciak also has a skin care line. Ramona had one. So does the one from Dallas. Who is buying this stuff?

    All I’ve learned from this episode is that Heather is the best housewife on the show. She’s also the best dressed. Heather for life. Heather forever.

      Thank you for expressing how I see Mary too. I don’t think she’s racist, I think she’s clueless and socially awkward. She was really trying to give Jenny a compliment and it was cringeworthy because she has very few social graces. I don’t think she frequently goes out in society, and probably has no clue as to what is politically correct and what is not.

    I am not 100%, but when they did a flashback to the Pho lunch, as Mary was “complementing” Jennie about her slanted eyes, I think she said something about Jennie’s yellow skin tone. I’m usually so annoyed when Mary is talking that maybe i mis-heard what she may have said.

    The photoshoot at Lisa’s…REALLY?!

    When Jen’s mom came over to the obvious staged packing of donated goods scene, did it sound like her mom was giving them money? The mom mentioned liquidating things, which to me would be possibly selling things to get cash, right. Jen brags about all of her clothes and seems like she could either go to the consignment store that Whitney and Heather went to with the “knitted beaver”, or get on the Real Real website and get some cash. Sell some of your jewelry that you bragged about with Marie Claire like the 7.2 karat emerald instead of having your mom fund your defense attorney.

    Glad that Lisa called Mary out on the “Mexican thug” comment. Not surprised that she denied saying it. And the reason Lisa could not say anything to Mary in the moment was because I think that Lisa was like a deer in the headlights of Mary’s stupidity. I think Mary’s dumbness emits an aura that stops people in their tracks and they don’t know what to do. Mary is DUMB and i am so tired of watching her make her stink face. What makes her even dumber than dumb, is that she really thinks that OTHER people are dumb and that she is the smart one. She says to Lisa that she doesn’t like that people question her. People question you because your are DUMB and you make no sense and are clueless about what you are talking about.

      You heard Jen’s mother correctly. She’s closing out her retirement account and selling her home to come up with a million dollars for Jen’s defense fund. Jen may be under the same restrictions Erika has been under that says she can’t sell any of her belongings because they may be forfeited to the government as restitution to the people she scammed.

        My mother has much more that amount in her teacher’s retirement account, and so did my Dad when he died. We get an annuity on his account and she taught school for 8 more years than he did. It’s possible if you have retirement and a 401 account which both my parents have/had. Jen’s mother could be calling her 401K her retirement account,.

      It really is a horrible thing to do. You will most likely end up in jail still, all the while they are now suffering on the outside because of your poor decisions. Jen should not take the money from her mother, if she knows that she did it.

    I really am loving RHOSLC. Everyone is a little cray cray, but all are very unique, it just makes the dynamics unlike any other franchise.

    Felt really bad for Jen’s mom. And Jen’s lack of emotion for her mom was telling. When Jen’s hurt, she gets hysterical. But if somebody else is, there is no compassion.

    And Mary is just…on another planet, but I’d be lying if I didn’t LOL multiple times an episode at the batshit that comes out of her mouth.

    I have really wanted to support Mary but when she doubled down this episode and used the accent when imitating Jennie that was not acceptable. Meredith not saying outright that what Mary was saying is inappropriate, is not acceptable either. I know Meredith knows better. The show feels like a race to the bottom or to the point where they will not be able to film together.

    Lisa’s only friend is Jennie. She has been two faced to everyone else. The reunion should be interesting. Everyone is in a weird position.

    I feel like there is so much interrupting the group can never get to the bottom of anything they are discussing.

      Mary is just jealous of Jennie’s and Duy’s marriage (disregarding the fake sister wife storyline) and how much they engage with their little children, who obviously love them. It’s a happy loving family and she doesn’t have that, not even with her mannequin head closet friends.

    Mary really needs a stylist. Mary has the most expensive wardrobe on the show, and still looks like a crazy cat lady. Whitney’s stylist is very good and working with a fraction of the budget.

      Mary’s wigs are normally miss with an occasional hit. She needs Karen Huger’s hair stylist to make her a few.

        Ummmmm…..Mary is NOT going to find a hair stylist like Karen’s in SLC. For that matter, Karen’s wigs have evolved A LONG WAY from her first two seasons. Mary’s wigs are no worse than MANY, MANY of the other melanated girls’ wigs from their first seasons as housewives. Actually, Mary’s wigs are MUCH BETTER THIS SEASON than they were last season. I think she doesn’t have a stylist to help her get ready for her events and she herself hasn’t mastered the art of styling her own makeup and hair.

    The purple Big Bird dress is from the Spring 2019 collection of Christian Cowan. (?) It is unavailable, no surprise there. Hopefully it was “one-of-a-kind” and will never be seen again.

    Meredith’s outfits are atrocious. Even that awful orange thing she was wearing in some of her interviews made me literally scream at the tv. WTF. Her stylist needs fired ASAP. Just because a look is over the top doesn’t mean it’s fashion, especially when you look ridiculous wearing it. I don’t know what’s worse about Mary, her facial expressions or the things that come out of her mouth. How anyone can follow and look up to someone like her is beyond comprehension.

    I’m done with Meredith; she didn’t know if Mary’s “compliment” would be offensive or not? Gtfo. The montage of every housewife stating Meredith was wrong… lol. Thank gosh for that.

    People keep talking about how much of a bitch Mary is and how awful she is when, in fact, she just seems really strange and out of touch to me. I don’t know if she’s a nice person or not, but I do know she can be condescending and somewhat arrogant. However, I’m not sure if she’s malicious or just off her rocker. Mary thinks she’s complimenting people, but because she’s socially awkward and not politically savvy AT ALL, much of what she says is just cringeworthy and offensive. Not sure how or why the “Mexican thug” drug dealer comment came about, but it’s clear she doesn’t get out much and doesn’t know how to effectively communicate without making a racist mockery of herself. (In high school kids called me “Black Jap” because my eyes were that word that Mary inappropriately used. It didn’t bother me because guys seemed to like it but I digress). Mary should just apologize for her racist comments and make an effort to do better. Suffice it to say that Mary is weird and socially awkward, but is great for TV, and if she were a different person she’d be call quirky and eccentric.

    Jen’s mother doesn’t look white to me, she looks Tongan, which she is. Some are caramel color and some are fair skinned and all the hues in between and Jen’s mother is just on the fair side. Jen’s father is Hawaiian and he is decidedly browner than Jen’s mom, so that is probably where Jen gets much of her coloring. Additionally, I’m the product of two teachers. While teachers may never be rich, they can do well especially if they invest their money, so Jen’s mother being able to liquidate her accounts and come up with a million dollars isn’t that far fetched at all. Plus, she added the value of her house to that number. So, it’s not difficult for me to see how she could do it. With that being said, I certainly hope she does NOT. If found guilty, Jen will go to jail and her mom won’t have any retirement to live on or home to live in. It would be tragic for her to have worked all her life and end up with nothing simply because her daughter is a grifter.

    I actually LOVED the way Meredith walked around that party like royalty while wearing that monstrosity. She was like “yes, it’s ugly, but I’m not and I can wear WTF I like.” I really like women like that….maybe I’m weird….but definitely eccentric.

    Late to the discussion, but I’m taken back how some don’t think Mary is racist and are finding ways to diminish the reality of her behaviour. We didn’t need season 2, nor her comments against Mexicans, or her Asian backhanded ‘compliment’. She PROVED & ASSERTED herself as a racist in season one on multiple occasions by saying she’s suspicious and fearful of black men, doesn’t like or prefer black men, and prefers black men who are not very melanated. That IS racist. SHE is racist, and a colorist.

    Racism isn’t always overtly hateful and laced with malice. Since so few seem to recall (or care) about her clear issue of her own race and it’s diversity of complexion (smh). It can be inappropriate judgement and assumptions, and tone deaf hyper fetishized adorations of exotic features.

    She’s not sheltered. She has traveled the world and specifically chooses to only socialize amongst the wealthy, in spite of the fact that she is a pastor to those of lower economic status, and despite that God’s Word is love for all: rich, poor, fair, rich in melanin, Mexican, Asian, etc etc. Her ignorance is electory and not circumstantial.

    Let’s not paint the picture with a brush of falsehood simply bc she happens to occasionally make some chuckle and she wears Chanel! PLEASE!

      Thank you Sunnie it seems to be only ONE moron here who thinks she isn’t racists. She literally stole from her congregation to have FULL BODY SKIN BLEACHING and a nose job among many other cosmetic procedures. She clearly has a lot of self hatred as part of her racism.

        Oh yes, that is another can of worms and I nearly vented on that initially as well. She has a ton of issues, and she clings to the things she idolizes (proximity to whiteness, labels, her congregation) in place of what she lacked growing up (unconditional love, love of herself as she is naturally: a melanated black woman, as well as true friends and family). In this way, I feel *some empathy for her bc she was clearly born into this deluded and [allegedly] cult like family dynamic.

        BUT, she has also said enough to acknowledge she is not fully blind now: she still very much chooses this viewpoint. She’s chosen to bleach, not associate with her own race much (unless you count her “Help” which is just so cringe that it’s her own cousin she hasn’t bothered to get to know in the least). And we also see her choose this through her indignance & when she doubles down on her statements. She is very ignorant, insensitive, amongst many other things. These are her beliefs and viewpoints that shift how she moves through the world. At this point, these are simply facts and not opinion.

        She needs to be thoroughly called out on this at the reunion. No more tip toeing around it, no more diversion tactics by saying she would neverrrrr simply bc she’s been impacted by racism as well. Ideally Meredith won’t interject and dilute the discussion to focus on herself if the time comes.

          Yes yes yes. There was no argument she is a racist from me! And a con artist. And yes let’s hope someone other than Andy can host these reunions – someone who can do justice for all of Marys victims.

        NeNe ALLEDGEDLY had a nose job and bleached her skin too. Does THAT make her racist or self-hating? Now I know you’re not fond of NeNe either and tried to think of a melanated housewife you like, but had trouble remembering one. In any case, many women (especially melanated ones), suffer with melasma and bleach their skin to try and even out their skin tones. Are they racist too? As far as stealing from her congregation, has she been arrested for that yet? I must have missed that episode.

          When I moderate first time commenters on this site, one of the RED FLAGS is commenters whose name is in ALL CAPS. Generally, I do not put them through. I’ve regretted admitting you for weeks.

          It’s not my job to explain racism, or colorism, or self hatred to you. Also, there is a reason you can’t find a black housewife that I like who bleaches their entire body, has a nose job, wears blond wigs and makes racist comments.

          Muchlike why I don’t like you for making excuses for them.

            For the record, I don’t even know why my name is in all caps. It wasn’t my intent, and I can’t even remember what prompters I saw to add my name, but if I knew I could use a nickname, I definitely would have chosen that over my actual name in caps. However, think less of me if you must, it definitely wasn’t intentional.

            Also, I know you don’t like me much. Again, it isn’t my intent to be disliked. I just sometimes don’t agree with you or the status quo. Forgive me.

          Ma’am what??? This comment, smh. How are glossing over the very factual and actual ways Mary has proven her racism, to then focus in on Nene?

          Is she too racist? LMFAO have you not watched RHOA? You know, the show where she called Claudia a HALF-BREED? The same show where when Phaedra mocked Kenya’s skin tone and she (as well as the others) did not make a stand against that?

          It’s absolutely ridiculous to defend bleaching by claiming it as a way to treat melasma. There’s many other ways to handle melasma without having to resort to methods that kill melanin. Not to mention, if that were thr only intent, why are these women in mention doing their entire body? Where is the logic??

          While rhinoplasty alone is not a smoking gun to colorism or racist issues, it still is very much a red flag. In conjunction with hee lovely behaviour I noted above (and likely a plethora of additional examples) YES, yes Ms Leakes is a self hating colorist.

          Of less significance, the two nose jobs are not allegations, she’s discussed them openly.

            I feel like Nene has has more than two nose jobs. I could be wrong. But somehow the nose always seems to grow back. I have never seen that happen before in the history of the world. It’s like a medical anomaly.

Too cold, too much c talk, my area is back in 1/2 closed again. I may never have reason to leave the house at this point and just boxing up my outside the house clothes for donating.
