Yolanda implied that she and Brandi weren't superclose friends.

The hesitation and answer were more like we aren't real friends and the body language was I don't really like being associated with her.

Brandi was upset by this. Gigi initially tweeted support for Brandi but then deleted it because she said she thought Brandi's reaction was OTT.

Gigi did the ILY shout out to Brandi before her mother distanced herself from Brandi on WWHL. (Brandi responded in kind). She deleted it in the aftermath of her mother's interview, I guess. I'm not sure what went on today and what else was or wasn't said/deleted.

I think Yolanda also tweeted Brandi asking for her to honor her child's privacy, or something.

This is stupid ... of Yolanda. She's the one bringing "a child" into it. Brandi more or less said we had plans this weekend and she cancelled after Yolanda implied they're basically only friends for television purposes. I wouldn't have gotten so defensive about that to bring "a child" into the conversation of why I cancelled if that was what Yo was doing.

The more I think about it, the more Yolanda comes across as shady, supporting her BFF Brandi on the show and then throwing her under the bus later.

I always felt she was a part of the reason Brandi went cold on Lisa. People say it's Kyle whispering in her ear. It was probably Yolanda talking about what "Hollywood friend" Lisa was or wasn't doing.

Speaking of St. Lisa. After Brandi threw Yolanda's RHOBH friends line in Yo's face (don't tell me you're a friend, show me), Lisa responded "I did." I liked that but then Lisa went on to talk about months of mud-slinging and those "two words" being her only response. Uh, Lisa, please take a seat. Every time Brandi has screwed up, Lisa has been there giving interviews piling it on.

With Brandi I feel that she always has to air out her grievances on a public forum fishing for support and back up. But that's just me.

They all do that.

Phaedra and Apollo's relationship has been really weird this season. You can tell she's over his chit. You can tell she's almost disgusted with him. She's not really feeling him as anything other than arm candy to show off for his looks. You can tell he knows where he stands with her. It'll be interesting to see what comes out. I don't think Pha was involved in Apollo's wrong-doing but I think she may have found out about it before the arrest and pre-dating the taping of the season currently airing.

JP, that's what I was telling myself after I picked my jaw up, but it came off really ... gruff. I don't know if that's the right word. Felt more like distancing yourself from somebody instead of making a simple distinction.

Was Yolanda originally brought on as a friend of Lisa? I don't remember.

Brandi is so annoying. She had to get on Twitter and say all of that.

"Close? Not really. We play friends on television" - National Television.

"I thought we were really friends. I see you, b--ch." - Twitter

Neither lady exactly brought the class tonight especially if they're really friends.

I would have done the same thing if someone whos supposed to be my friend played me like that on tv

You could hear the audience not so silently gasping at her cool, cold response.

Yolanda was on WWHL and Andy mentioned how close she and Brandi are. In response, Yolanda sort of awkwardly paused and more or less played it off. Brandi clearly felt that dodge ball and expressed herself in response to it on Twitter.

@Andy @YolandaHFoster I thought we were closer I guess... We had dinner plans Sat. until she had 2cancel last sec.Hmm I guess 1never knows

Yolanda just did a blog about Lisa being a "Hollywood friend" and not a real friend. I'm not sure if this was a case of Yolanda being judgmental of how much of a friend someone is or just not wanting to admit to being close to Brandi on television. Maybe both.

Gigi, Yolanda's daughter with the tycoon who Brandi pissed off for life, expressed her love for Brandi on Twitter hours before that interview.

I love @BrandiGlanville and that's that.

She's not comparing herself to God, she's saying she should be forgiving, since God is, since those are her beliefs.

I took it the same way Carlton did. By using God, she's comparing what she has to forgive or go through with Brandi to what God had to forgive or went through with sacrificing the life of Jesus for the sinful humans who basically murdered him. She is, more or less, comparing herself to God.

Brandi is a lunatic. Do we know all of our best friend's friends? I sure as hell don't. She is going to really try and go for Lisa at the reunion. It isn't going to end well for Brandi.

People go for Lisa every year. I think Andy likes it because he usually participates in that.

That said, the Brandi/Lisa stuff is lightweight. It's like a kid insinuating their "controlling" mother is responsible for everything bad in her life phase EXCEPT their not mother/daughter SO they probably won't bounce back from it.

Heh, Carlton gave attention to something that I did a double-take at myself...

This was also quite amusing and revealing. Joyce's self-righteous talking head, "If god could forgive what humanity did to his son who am I not to forgive Brandi for being such a stupid little bitch!" You are off your sanctimonious rocker lady. Did you just compare yourself to God? Talk about delusions of grandeur!

It's taken us years but we have finally agreed on something! Lol

Look at that RH franchise bringing people together instead of tearing them apart

If the Brandi we're seeing onscreen is the same Brandi that Eddie Cibrian had to live with and deal with on a daily basis is it any wonder that he cheated on her the first chance he got and repeatedly at that? I'm not say cheating is right but his motives were certainly understandable if the situation at home was that toxic.

If, if, If.

First, she hasn't EVEN acted this much of a mess in the 2 previous seasons of RHOBH she's been on so there's really not much "if" about it.

Even if there was, the notion that a woman (or man) deserves to be cheated on repeatedly for any reason besides she herself (or he himself) being a cheating tramp is like nails on a chalkboard to me. If you want to spread your juice freely man or woman up and get a f--kin divorce.

I don't think it's cute. I don't think as a whole it's attractive. I do t think her saying the f word is the reason she doesn't have a man. I think to imply that is saying women need to be mild mannered, speak only when spoken to and are less than a man. These women want to put on that front and gasp as Brandi dares to say the f word and I find it gross.

I agree with this. There's a lot of things WRONG with Brandi this season - everyone of us in here can agree with that, I'm sure - but I don't consider her use of profanity a part of that. Heck, her sexuality isn't even part of that although I could do with less information there (same for Carlton).

I also find it off-putting to say a woman is less of a woman if she has a mouth like a sailor. It's weird to me these women seem to be more offended by Brandi's use of the F-word than her blatant racist comments. While I don't believe Brandi is racist, she is making a lot of racist comments towards Joyce.

What Brandi is now probably isn't what she always was. I had no real issue with Brandi until this season. She's just over doing it on all cylinders and that's probably part production and probably part depression/addiction(s).

I have no real issue with Brandi being friendly with the f-bomb. Her racist comments, on the other hand, are a problem. Her hatred of Joyce is also quite irrational. She to this day hasn't given a good excuse for it. Yes, Joyce tried to throw her UTB for simply giving her advice on how to handle Lisa but was it really that serious?

I still could care less about Joyce, but she is "reading" Brandi like an expert. She's pretty much telling it like it is with facts and I can't argue with that.

It's always been quite evident Brandi has been stuck in some sort of limbo due to the whole Eddie/Leann debacle. I thought RHOBH would help her climb out of that eventually but it feels like she's soaking in the mud of what's she's lost (marriage, moments with her children, dogs) more than ever. I'd like to see her story take a turn where she climbs out of that hole. I fear it may never happen with Eddie & Leann getting their own reality series.

I'm like JP on RHOA vs RHOBH. I look forward to RHOBH more than RHOA by habit BUT, nowadays, I watch RHOBH with a pit in my stomach while I end up enjoying each episode of RHOA much more than I expected.

Re: Cynthia/Nene.

I assumed Cynthia got so emotional for the same reason I do once a month. PMS.

Nene was going in too hard but that's typical Nene.

A water bug joining these -itches together. "Hit it like it's Kornell." LOL.

Do Porsha/Kenya still get along or was this moment in time just a fluke?

Glad she brought up Brandi bringing around that black girl just so she doesn't look racist.

I actually thought that was bullchit. We always see Brandi with these two girls on RHOBH. Also, Brandi's -ist comments are much more directed towards Hispanics. It's like a 99:1 ratio. One stereotype comment about AA got more juice than 45 pretty much straight out -ist comments about Hispanics.

Brandi is being a dumb bitch but Joyce is chit-stirring too.

I want the pump rules casts commentary on every RHOBH fight

I got to admit it was the best part of both episodes. Latoya Jackson, lol.

I don't think Brandi is racist. I think she's ignorant. She doesn't hate or think she's better than Joyce because Joyce is PR, she hates her cuz she's a shafy bitch but Brandi isn't well spoken and overly emotional with a her issues so she goes to what will hurt the most - Kim's drug use for example.

I think I can agree with this.

Also I've gotta give it to lisa. She's smart. A dinner with Joyce Brandi Yolanda and the men who've banged almost everyone at the table hosted at her restaurant with Katie Jax Stasi Tom and Adriana as serves while they have their own issues and drama on her spin off show. Smart.

I want at least 1 religious group offended, lol.

Kyle seems to offend Carlton and her witchcraftia religion.

Oh my gosh, Jax is all like "why is Latoya Jackson accusing Brandi of being racist?" I. laughed.

I cant believe Vanderpump Rules is a rehash of the dinner that JUST played on RHoBH but with Sur people talking heads

I can see why Brandi feel used by Lisa when they center a VR episode like this.

The VR reaction episode is cracking me up.

I don't believe she is a racist, based off of those comments!

I don't know where I stand on this.

I could excuse it prior to this because it felt like really stupid humor and drunk bitch behavior (not that being drunk excuses it), tonight it just was once, twice, three times too much and she didn't even seem drunk.

Then there's the fact that she clearly has two Hispanic children that she loves and her two best friends are not white.

Brandi really does remind me of my mother in terms of the way she talks - racist tendencies particularly against Hispanics (and cursing). My father was a cheating (beating) jack ass so she has had negative impressions of Hispanic people because of his behavior and because of the people he cheated on her with.

I hope Brandi can make a turn around from this. It's not the note I want to see her leave the series on if this ends her run on the series. It sucks that she's not even really acknowledging what she's doing with the racist/ethnic comments to this day. I'd love her to admit the comments are wrong and attempt to explain why it's coming off her lips so dang naturally.

I'm a Brandi apologist but there's no way to get around her going straight to ethnic/racist jabs whenever dealing with this chick. There's no excuse for it. She's old enough to know better.

Brandi: I'm not racist.

Multiple Dinner Guests: She's not racist.

[Minutes later]

Brandi [to Joyce]: Go back from where you came.

Damn. Just no.

She's doing these swipes on every episode MORE THAN ONCE. I likeD her - and I don't give a crap about Joyce - but I can't defend it.

Joyce did handle herself well in these arguments in terms of taking the claws out and scratching..

Meh. It's an ensemble show and Lisa isn't the second coming of anything as much as I do like her and as much as I do think she is a better pedigree than most of these other bitches. It's not so much about what any of these women are or aren't. With me, at least, it's about not really liking any of their current "characters" all that much.

Isn't this also part of Lisa's general story over the years (reminding viewers that she's above most of the others)?

There was a humorous tone to it before. RHOBH was usually just stupid fun despite the drama ... until this season. It's like nobody really took the crap all that seriously before.

This year things are so pronounced and there's jagged edges everywhere.

I'm not sure if it's the casting changes, editing or the Season 4 curse.

Brandi - a filthy drunk with racist tendancies

Yolanda - a snob who acts like a mean girl

Lisa - so over (and above) everybody

It's a kind of sad season when the Richards sisters are coming off the softest on a season. I always did get the impression that Andy wants to let Kyle get top dog position if she can get it. He goes in on Lisa on reunion shows.

RHOA is bouncing back this year, on the other hand. It has a lighter feel to it than it's had in years and I appreciate that.

I have to watch the second airing tonight as I was interrupted by phone calls during the 8 o'clock airing.

Kenya and Porsha getting along so well this episode was interesting. Nene making everybody cry and not really giving a poop was very Nene, haha.

Brandi is just awful. This woman has no respect for herself if she is allowing the cameras to portray her this way. Just so trashy and classless. And now throwing her last remaining benefactor Yolanda under the bus to Kyle? You really are stupid.

Occasional pair of shoes aside, I haven't heard one peep about Lisa or Yolanda financially supporting Brandi.

A person who appears to have a problem with drinking whining about friends having a problem with them drinking is not throwing the friends under the bus. It's the normal irrational and pathetic response an addict will have to anybody having opposition to them continuing with their addiction.

Lisa is so over all them hoes. I don't blame her. I'd rather hang with Ken at a building site, too.

She really, really is over every single one of them. While I don't blame her at all, I don't love when that much of a disconnection happens in a cast.

Those 3 are far more worse than Brandi imo, with brandi what you see is what you get unlike those 3 horrible human beings. Brandi has yet to sink to their levels LOL.

Besides that Yolanda ex-hubby leak/lie, Brandi hasn't really hurt anybody but herself by running her mouth. Did I miss something, did she try to ruin Lisa's marriage by revealing that Ken has rubbed her ass repeatedly? Did she say anything to Kyle that wasn't true about her personality or in the papers already? Heck Lisa's "well, I can't say that for definite" while being taped for national television was more harmful.

Brandi is coming off like a racist but it's against the ethnicity of her sons (Hispanic) for the most part which makes it weird. That doesn't make Joyce look anyways, it makes Brandi look like a stupid, irrational assh-le with both jealousy issues and racist tendencies. .

Kyle? IMO, she wants to be top dog, as long as Lisa is standing in her way I don't see her coming to Lisa no matter what. IMO, at the reunion, she'll play protective of Brandi but "honest."

Boyce ain't going to serve anybody unless Brandi comes to the reunion completely hammered. Then again ... maybe Joyce will? I'll have to see how fight night plays out on Monday.

RHOA is actually kind of fun this year although sometimes it's a little too loud, ex:Kenya vs. Kandi on the bus.

The new chick has to stay long enough for Kandi and Phaedra (AND KENYA the troublemaker) to be in the same room with her and her husband, lol.
