http://omonatheydidnt.livejournal.com/18978333.html#comments#comments They are still discussing, and Cube wants to renew Hyunseung's contract, too. But if Beast set up their own Korean label, or get taken under another company's wing, it might not be such a bad thing...? Wishing the absolute best outcome for them... I like them, too, Cheap.

WINNER Man the hell with YG. They used to be the best but he as a CEO has become the worst in the past year. Must be a bad time for CEOs bc CUBE has gone downhill too. Beast They havent rsigned their cntracts with Cube and it expires this month. http://www.koogle.tv/media/news/b2st...re-this-month/Im conflicted. Cube has gone downhill in the past year so I think they should say F you and leave them but if they do I think that could mean the end of their careers in Korea. They at least got their Japanese label but thats not as good as their Korean promotions Eh. I still don't think it is his best look. Mind you, much of Shinee's hair can veer into the tragique. I know what you mean, I wondered if YG jumped on Taehyun's personal problems as an excuse to pretend that a comeback for Winner was being planned but that he had now scuppered those plans. They have really thrown him under a bus. YG is such an incompetent toad. Winner and other groups should be on music shows and variety shows and hustling and showing off their music and likeability. Instead they are locked in a dungeon. It is so cruel to waste young kids' youth like this when all they want to do is perform and get better as performers. SM overwork their idols, but YG can't be bothered to do anything with their's. CUBE is a mess but I hope we hear news about Beast soon. They are CUBE's most profitable act. How did their last comeback go for them? BTW, I saw Hyunseung on that dance show as a guest dancer a few months' ago. Perhaps he will get some opportunities to participate in these shows and show off his dance talent more. They won a few #1s on the music shows but they didnt sweep like they have been doing with their past releases. Their sales are still good and definitely Cube's highest selling act That's good! It means CUBE won't want to dismantle them, and will still be invested in them as a group as they all are with each other.

Doubt it. I've heard they'll be bumped back to January instead of December. I expect a promo some time in November. I bet they are waiting to see if any drama breaks out in HK, and then....a promo. So Season 7 appears to be Kyle, Lisa, LIps, Eileen, Erika, and two newbies and a lot of Camille. Thoughts? I feel Yolanda should have stayed in the cast this season. Hear me out! She is '90% miraculously cured' now. She's manipulative and a liar. She just went through a much media-covered, slightly mysterious, quickie divorce from "My Love." I love seeing her kids, Gigi, Bella and Anwar. Right now, Yol is swanning around the fashion shows of the world (as opposed to doing Vitamin C IVs with that creepy 'health advocate' Daisy holding her hand). This to me is v watchable! ALSO, even though Eileen and Lisa R were going after LVP last season, neither of them were dupe to Yolanda's machinations. They know she is a steely-eyed operator. Lisa R mentioned that she felt they were pawns in some kind of weird proxy war between LVP and Yolanda. It needs to be brought into the open. As it is, things might be a little dull this time around. LVP wants to be known for her charitable animal causes, but frankly (and I know I sound superficial) I don't think I can watch multiple episodes of LVP marching for the dogs of Yulin. It's a bit dull. BH is about contentious relationships between women, Hollywood secrets, and glitz and glamour. LVP wants to repair her image which has taken some hits, but maybe she just needs to embrace the pot-stirring, Alexis Colbyesque role she has on this show. It's not a bad role to have. It's better than being a victim (Kyle) or a people-pleaser (LR). How would people feel about a Brandi return along with Kim??

Haha I'm so glad you got a Shinee comeback! I agree about Minho's hair, it makes him look like a grandpa. I also agree about Onew. Despite his leg injury, this feels like 'his' comeback. Kind of like Baekhyun shone during the Monster comeback for EXO, so Onew has been on top of his game for 1 of 1 promotions. I love the song, it sounds just like a 90s bop, but IA with you that Shinee are known for their talented dancers (Taemin, Key, Minho) and they were let down by the 50 bored chicks they bussed in who couldn't shake their moneymaker if their life depended on it! Sad news about Winner's Nam Taehyun. Heard he was struggling with mental issues (sounds like depression) and he has left the dorm to return home for a while and go to therapy. Hence the Winner cb is apparently being shelved for now. Hope he gets the help he seeks. I loved Mino's solo single Body though.

RHOC: We owe Ireland a huge-ass apology for imposing the real drunk housewives of drunkedness on that poor isle. We also owe them an apology for Shannon's Oirish 'accent.' Who to blame for the clusterf*ck of f*ckery? Tamra for stirring the pot and trying to get Heather pissed at Kelly? Shannon the tattletale? Or the Kelly the nasty drunk? I have no doubt Tamra hurts deeply about her daughter shutting her out of her life and choosing Simon over her. However, Tamra has violated the Child Code on this show before. What did she expect if she antagonised unstable lush Kelly? Shannon thinks she hides the hand to throw the stone but this dumb idiot was mic-ed up when she ran to Tamra. What a mean-spirited dumbass. Kelly is one of those people who thinks that being drunk (and 'Mexican,' apparently) is an excuse to say anything, including rambling Trump-style remarks about Jewish people. Sometimes I wonder how people who are so dumb end up so rich. The biggest problem I have with her is that she plays the victim card in every episode re: her marriage. However, there is nothing victim-like or vulnerable about her whatsoever. She is a honking, hectoring loudmouth who looks like she'd beat you up if you so much as looked at her the wrong way. OT but has anybody seen this?? It is frankly amazing:

Dynasty: Discussion Thread
LOL! There certainly wasn't! Fallon as a name was up there, too. HA! I could live with Sydney or Taylor lol But trying to combine that name with Linda Evans is weird Haha I know. Linda Evans is not a Sydney or a Madison! "The part of Sydney Carrington is now being played by Angie Dickinson."

Dynasty: Discussion Thread
The name of the character from DYNASTY you and others, as well as publications (!!!), so often misspell is not Krystal, but Krystle. It drives me nuts. What they're doing in the upcoming pilot is irrelevant and doesn't change the original spelling. Was there ever a more 80s spelling of a more 80s name? If Dynasty had been done in the 90s, Krystle would have been called Sydney, Taylor or Madison.

Dynasty: Discussion Thread
The thing with Dynasty was that it was an 80s show seen through the prism of 1950s melodrama. The actors were former screen idols of the Hollywood studio system or beautiful young things. Pamela Sue Martin was incandescent and glowing with beauty and pizzazz. Joan Collins was ... Joan Collins. She commanded that show and Alexis was fascinating to watch. The clothes, flowers, champagne... all these added touches blew up the budget. The women wore chinchillas and Van Cleef & Arpels and Nolan Miller and drank real Bollinger. Joan had a different wig for every scene! How to recreate that in today's pared down, dark TV environment? Will the stars have the Star Quality that made the show so watchable? (For me, that is; I am currently rewatching Season 3). I don't think it can work if it looks pedestrian. And without La Collins it will be pedestrian. Her presence alone is like a 1000 megawatt spotlight. Like Chit said, I think this will be a disaster and go the way of the Dallas reboot. And finding a Fallon like PSM will be hella difficult too. She had chemistry with a postbox. And Helmut Berger.

Sunspear, I have always liked that you give a different POV on here, but that just is not true! If Wendy had made that remarks about Nene, I would have been up in arms about it. Wendy was way below the belt. The fact is, no child, whether they be Kenya or Nene, is at fault for their mothers deserting them! Wendy implying that was mean and vicious, because god knows a kid who has been through that often blames themselves for a parent leaving them ("maybe if I had been nicer/prettier/stronger, my mother would not have abandoned me"). Certainly Greg in last year's Reunion said that explicitly about Nene's breakdown. I know you didn't mean that it is Kenya's fault for her mom deserting her, so I am going to assume that you meant the people who "keep deserting her left and right" are the ones in her adult life. I wonder if not having a parent who wanted to be with them has factored into Nene and Kenya's issues with being controlling, or with pushing people away and cutting them off when they felt rejected. This is why I wanted Nene on the show this season, because it is experiences like this that make her and Kenya human, and not just trying to project an image and control the narrative which is basically what all HWs are trying to do these days. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- http://tamaratattles.com/2016/10/02/rhony-sunday-tea/ Speculation that Bethenny may have lost her Sirius radio show, either because she showed her ass at a Sirius event, she fought with Andy, or she's getting backlash after this season of RHoNY. According to the comments, Andy on his radio show was asked if Bethenny was mad at him about Reunion and he said yes she was but that he had to let the other women have a chance to defend themselves at Reunion. Maybe Andy and Bravo are trying to distance themselves. Another comment said that at some event, Bethenny threw a cocktail at somebody and it landed instead on the wife of a Goldman Sachs head honcho. They in turn leaned on Sirius. While I think this may be a stretch to think somebody at GS told Sirius to fire BF, I work in the financial sector and Goldman Sachs are no joke here. The name inspires fear and awe. In NYC it must be the biggest and most powerful private financial institution in the city, and big players in social, cultural and charity events. If Bethenny pissed off a GS wife, well then

Brandon gets it right yet again! I loved it when he dragged the HWs for their homophobic comments last season. I hope he will appear this season as I always felt he and Kenya were genuinely close (plus he's funnier than Don Juan). I hope WW sees a backlash. She's already skating on thin ice, I heard.

What happened? Should I go see on her YT channel? Is it the latest? it's that clip with the comment she made about Kenya I got it now. "Kenya, dear, I love you. But the reason maybe that Sheree's mom was able to be put on the mortgages is cuz Sheree's mom loves her and opens the door when she comes over to her house." I can't believe something like Kenya being neglected by her mom is used as something to attack KENYA with! What kind of playground mean-girl bitchery is that?? This is really making me consider not watching her show anymore. I used to enjoy it on her YT channel but that was so unnecessary. Im gonna need to take a minute bc I am offended by what she said. Ive liked and supported her show even through all the mess but Im utterly sick that she'd use that as shade. Im going to have to drop her show for a while. Please do, Cheap. And I will follow your lead and not give her YT channel any of my views. It was offensive, cruel and spiteful. How is it the fault of any child when a parent decides to not be a part of their life growing up?! Kenya has always carried pain about her mother's attitude towards her. That comment was designed to really wound her.

I think I heard a few boos after WW said that.

She should, actually. All she wanted was some assurance that if the checked-in baggage got lost, the airline would be able to track them down quickly and get them to her -- that's what the baggage stub promises, essentially. It's a tracking number. They could have told her "We will fax/email that stub through to Maui and somebody at Delta will meet you at the gate with it when you land." So many simple solutions to this! Instead, I suspect (and I am only speculating) the flight attendants on the plane were like "Black lady/Real Housewife getting uppity!" and the pilot was like "F*ck that sh*t" and thought that kicking them off would make him look no-nonsense. The flight crew blew the issue up when there was no issue to be had!

Well, they haven't even got to Maui yet and already drama is happening. Not HW-provoked though. Kandi & Todd get kicked off their Honolulu-Maui flight for no clear reason! http://tamaratattles.com/2016/09/29/exclusive-details-kandi-burruss-and-todd-tucker-kicked-off-flight-to-hawaii/ Looks like Delta really over-reacted about absolutely nothing at all and that K&T will be on a later flight? I can't believe they picked Kandi of all people. She is so chill and not a raised-voice person generally. I believe her side of the story when she says she asked politely and made no fuss.

I think that the trailer for this season is looking more lit than those for previous seasons. Yes they are still filming and will probably pad out the season. Having said that, Lake Lanier's Porsha-Cynthia fight occurred very early into last season, and clearly Porsha's Thug Issues are a thing. Bravo will probably want to show that they are sending her to pretend Anger Management classes in order to show that they 'care' about the other women's safety. Having said that, Carlos King clearly adores and protects her. so as long as Porsha stays bringing the drama, she will be clutching a peach in her thotish hands. And even I cannot deny that she can drive a SL or two on this show sometimes. Anybody who follows TT knew long ago that Kandi waves her freak flag proudly, which is why I am surprised she is losing it over Porsha's allegations. Maybe it has to do with her 'brand' and being a mother now. In any case, Porsha should have been called out long ago on her behavior, and Kandi is pretty much the only HW of standing who can do that right now. I am honestly surprised there isn't more Cynthia-Peter divorce stuff in the trailer. RHoNY: I don't know if you guys saw Wendy Williams host Bethenny on her show a week or so ago. It looks like the big tiff between WW and Bethenny/Andy has been settled. Anyway, it was a lot of Bethenny kiss-assing. Yesterday Wendy hosted Luann and was apparently a total bitch to her. In fact, she is being dragged across Twitter for treating Luann like Bethenny does, basically. I am pretty sure Wendy must have done this with the blessing of Bethenny and Bravo. My question is, why is Bravo working so hard to tear Luann down? Luann has created so much good story for them in recent years, especially this season. It sounds like they just want to destroy her. Wendy also said that Dorinda should be kicked off NY for being 'too nice' and boring. Sounds like Bethenny's words. Interesting how Dorinda is really the only HW consistenetly calling B out on her BS atm.

Holy sh*t. HoLy SH*T! What to decipher first?? Kenya & Phaedra best buds? Matt going loco on Kenya's property? Kandi going loco on Porsha?

omg I love Lizzie so much, I can't even tell you. She spoke the truth to Tamra S9 without getting toxic and cruel about it. I love how she slapped Meghan down on Twitter a few months ago when Meghan tried to go after Kelly. I would love her back (and Meghan gone). Gretchen... I don't want her fake-ass back. At least not with that succubus Slade. As a FOH there to take down Tamra? Absolutely. I am ready to see Shannon taken down a notch or six and I have a feeling we will see that this season and at Reunion -- by none other than Chrishan Trailer Sue herself! Did you see the exchange between Lizzie/Gretchen v. Shannon a few days ago? Shannon had the nerve to call Gretchen and Lizzie irrelevant and brought up that they aren't on the show anymore. How is Gretchen irrelevant when they still discuss her on this show to this day? Lizzie may not be discussed on the show anymore but the woman is far from irrelevant. She stays working and selling them bikinis. She has a career unlike ShanLoon. I don't really follow Twitter generally so unless Reality Tea or Tamara Tattles brings it to my attention, I usually miss the big Twitter battles between HWs! Shannon really needs to take the cray off social media. IrreleGretchen I might agree with her on, but LIzzie was asked to do another season on OC, I heard. She refused to give Tamra the pleasure of going after her on camera after she leaked Lizzie's cell phone number to her followers during the off-season. Instead she became a FOH and has been seen numerous times in the following seasons. I hope we see her again soon this year. Lizzie does have a legitimate, growing, full-time career -- and prioritises her family -- which is why she didn't take up Bravo's offer to return full-time. Shannon emasculates her whiney-voiced husband on national tour, then proceeds to ruin her daughters' big show along with their thirsty-ass grandma. They totally crapped on their kids' joy.

RHoNY: Speaking of Bethenny -- and I know RHONY is done for the year -- Seasons 2-3 are being repeated where I am. OMG, what a fascinating watch. I can still view most of the episodes like they are new. It is interesting to watch in light of this latest season of NY where Bethenny is now an uncontrollable ticking bomb. You can see the seeds being sown in S3. Bethenny going through the mill is really eye-opening. Not that she wasn't a media whore or an opportunist, but Jill tried to kill her career on the show and threatened everybody not to film with B. Seeing Bethenny (in the first half of S3 stuck with only Alex and maybe Ramona as support) transition to a situation where everybody got sick of Jill telling them what to do and stopped filming with her, was such sweet justice. Bethenny was put down and excluded by Jill, Kelly and Luann and, while I will support Luann to the death after the way B came after her this season, I can understand where the hatred comes from on Bethenny's part. The sad part is that 6 years later Bethenny is still fighting that same old battle while Luann has evolved from her uppity Countess days. Plucky Bethenny from the old days has now evolved into a Jill prototype -- angry, vengeful, surrounded by Yes people. She targets other HWs the way Jill did. After spending Seasons 2 and 3 telling Jill to rein in her jealousy and her mean-girling of the other women, Bethenny is failing to follow her own advice and is doing exactly that. And it is hurting her image. Somebody mentioned a while back that maybe Jill Zarin should return to the show as she is probably the only one who can check Bethenny. I don't think that is possible tbh. First of all, Bethenny is protected by Andy, Bravo and her EP credit on RHoNY. Andy and Bravo HATE Jill. Secondly, Jill is as toxic and obsessed as Bethenny is. Remember how she turned on poor Alex after Bethenny got successful & pregnant and Jill suddenly got scared about having her as an enemy? Two toxic personalities on the show would not necessarily cancel the other out, it would just create a heavily toxic show (see NY Season 4 or BH Season 4 and 5 with Brandi-Kim). NY S2-3 was able to balance a lot of humor with the toxicity that lightened things. On Scary Island, for example, Kelly goes off on everybody for 'being mean girls' then tries to march off the yacht into some glass sliding doors. The awkwardness as she wrestles with opening those doors and everybody watching like was hilarious. Kelly btw I am convinced had (has?) serious Narcissistic Personality Disorder coupled with a prescription drug problem coupled with having absolutely no sense of humor or irony. Bad combo.
