Aside from the family issues she dealt with in Seasons 1 and 2 I don't really find her that insecure. She can be territorial for sure but i don't see her as weak and insecure to be honest but we can agree to disagree on that point. i just think she's one of those people who has very low tolerance for bs and absolute fake nonsense. The minute she thinks or suspect you're playing games then she moves on.

I think for the most part everyone has always accused Cynthia of being Team Nene's top cheerleader and even she herself admitted that she was the conductor of the Nene train for the longest. And that's only cuz Nene was clearly the draw of the show when she came on and continues to be.

Nene is weak and insecure and Stevie Wonder could see that a mile away. Any forty something [going on fifty] year old woman being possessive over friends and declaring that they chose a side wreaks of insecurity and weakness.

I'm 26 and I don't do no sh*t like that to my own friends.

Saw this on another board:

Is there trouble in paradise for Phae/Kandi?

Divorce obviously affects anyone who’s been married. But can this also apply to friendships?

kandi-burruss-and-phaedra-parks-e1415886

Judging from the season premiere of “Real Housewives of Atlanta,” that may be the case with Kandi Burruss and Phaedra Parks, who recently split from her husband Apollo Nida.


Although Burruss welcomed Nida into her home during the episode, it was Burruss’ husband Todd Tucker who invited Nida to come to the residence. Nevertheless, Kandi is solidly behind Phaedra, while Todd looks to be aligned with Apollo.
In an interview with BravoTV.com, Phaedra revealed which of her “RHOA” castmates supported her in her time of need.


NeNe [Leakes] and Porsha [Williams] have been extremely supportive of me and very attentive throughout this entire ordeal, and for that I am extremely grateful,” Phaedra told BravoTV.com. “Unfortunately, some of the others decided to use my personal crises as an opportunity to further their own interests and talk to the media to get press for themselves.”


Phaedra may not have named the ones she felt exploited her divorce for attention, but Kandi got the impression that her friend had doubts about her loyalty.

“Phaedra is always assuming I’m siding with Apollo, which isn’t true. Todd and Apollo became pretty good friends, so I would say he takes Apollo’s side a lot. Todd and I have serious debates over their issues,” said Kandi as she made it known that where her allegiance lies.

“At the end of the day, Phaedra is my girl. I’m always going to be honest with her about what I think. Sometimes we have a difference of opinion, but it’s not because I’m taking anyone’s side against her. Never that!” she stated.

With all the drama between Apollo and Phaedra, tension between Kandi and Phaedra resulted. All this as the season premiered featured Apollo asking for a divorce. The revelation comes as the other “Housewives” expected Phaedra to be the one to ask for the divorce. Apparently, Apollo’s motivation stemmed from him seemingly being hurt that Phaedra didn’t support him more during his trial and sentencing.


“I’ve been criticized for not being at Apollo’s hearing, but the truth is I had been there for him in so many ways for such a long time. By the time all of this went down, it was apparent the marriage was over and my focus needed to be exclusively on the wellbeing of our children,” she said, adding that she wasn’t surprised that Apollo went there with the divorce.
“After a while you reach a point where you are so numb that nothing fazes you anymore,” she said.

Bravo just showed a First Look of RHOA & RHOBH and both were good. RHOA was juicier but RHOBH was OK.

RHOA:

Kenya and her Aunt Lori had a heart to heart and it was cute. I understood Aunt Lori trying to push Kenya to forgive everyone [mainly Mitsubishi], but I was with Kenya. It's hard to forgive someone that has constantly maligned your character to no return and physically assaulted you. I personally would have to whoop Porsha's ass before we moved forward. I'd have to get my get back.

All I'll say is that the look on Phaedra and Ford Fiesta's faces when Kandi dropped the Apollo bomb on them was priceless. Every insult and accusation that they've tossed at Kenya is now worthless. In that scene alone, you could feel that neither woman no longer has a leg to stand on. Of course, Phaedra would immediately try and play it off to maintain her facade. :rolleyes:

What I cannot wait to see more of is Cynthia! That scene between she and Peter was SO GOOD. Cynthia shaded the f*ck out of Porsha and I loved it. I loved how she told Peter that Porsha can occupy the role [as Nene's sidekick] that she vacated. Overall, Cynthia let it be known that she is the same girl but at her wits end.

Sunday is going to be good. . . .

On RHOBH:

We saw Brandi and Kim hanging out. -_- I shut them out till Kyle and Lisa came on screen. I am not for their shenanigans and false friendship/alliance.

Only interesting thing that I got from this was Lisa saying [to Ken] that she forgives these women but their relationships won't be the same. Lisa stated that she acknowledges what these women are capable of and won't forget it.

Kyle, on the other hand, chatted with Mauricio about the party and how she wants to know what happened in Adrienne/Brandi's talk. Oh she also asked Mauricio if he talked to Ken, and Mauricio talked about how they chatted for a second. That didn't surprise me as Ken [while talking to Lisa] is clearly over all these women and this show. His body language just reads it all over. Can't blame him.

Wow! You have a real hate for Porsha. Kind of strange. Well, I shouldn't talk because I hate Kenya more than you hate Porsha. mellow.png

Just saw BH and despite my reservations, LR will be a perfect fit

The premiere proved how irrelevant and unnecessary Kim is. WHY is she still around?

Brandi whining about Lisa and her crew being an old ladies version of the mean girls ostracizing her bc Lisa said so. Huh? Does she not recall every one of the remaining cast members turned on Lisa and are cool with Brandi?

That's what I was wondering as well. Are we supposed to forget season 4 and the reunion where it was Lisa being attacked and made to feel left out just because Brandi now wants to play the victim? This is nothing like season 2 whore. You've lied and talked mad [!@#$%^&*] on every single person at that party and now that they're rightfully shunning your broke down slut pig ass you want to act all surprised and woe is me? Have a seat on the curb where you belong trash. Only fools are buying what you're selling.

Was great to have Camille back! She needs to always maintain a friend of status on this show as she fits in so well. Adrienne... well, I can understand why she's back although I don't think we will see her next season.

Taylor, Camille and Adrienne shading the hell out of Brandi on WWHL was hilarious! Poor tampon string, nobody likes her! :lol:

That wasn't really Brandi's fault. Not that you stated it was. The ladies were dis-tasting for Lisa way back when Brandi was Team Nobody and leaning towards Team Lisa. Kyle, Adrienne, Yolanda, and Kim - and I think even Camille and Taylor - all clearly had a distaste for Lisa before Brandi began to. Lisa gets the reaction she sometimes gets from these ladies because of being Lisa - the good parts (them wanting to be friends with her), and the bad parts (them resenting her) of Lisa.

Now, I don't think Brandi should be blaming Lisa for the other girls treating her poorly. They were this way before Lisa had a problem with Brandi too. Now, it's partially coming at her due to her own reckless behavior and not all because they're rich bitches judging her off her more superficial elements.

If this were 'scripted', I think Brandi feeling shut out at the White party would have been a perfect way to exit her from the show. If it were me, I'd take it as a sign that it was time to cut my losses and move on.. (which is why I'd probably never be on a reality show LOL)

      I went back to see how Sami even figured out how to sell a baby in 1993, and the recap is unintentionally hilarious. The exposition is so blunt it feels like the writers drafted it between bites of lunch. Suddenly there’s a teen mom named Karen who sold her baby through a shady lawyer, and somehow Sami just… knows this man and pays him with hospital volunteer money. You can tell they were trying to make the whole thing “plausible” enough, but also knew the baby wouldn’t be gone long enough to justify a real subplot.  I know one thing, if Karen had confided in Jamie, Sami would've never met Steve Miller. Jamie knew that snitches get stitches. Not to be confused with the horrific Stephen Miller, who was 8 in 1993.
    • I can’t help but to get drawn in by Dani and Andre but it just angers me that it’s so obvious that they’re not endgame.
    • John and Marlena may have committed adultery, but they weren't going to be smug creeps about it. "Roman, how do you feel about the name Isabella Titania Brady?"
    • -- It's always amazing to me that these "terrible breakdowns" (by writers so bad they shall not be named) are saved by incredible script writers. Every time

      -- Kat is a "spoilt bitch" while Eva isn't??? -- Does Kat go too far with her mouth? Absolutely. But I get it. Eva has done some terrible things and continues to enable her criminal mother while Kat's family and boyfriend DEFEND her and show her love. -- Eva's complaints about Leslie are meaningless, because they're never backed up with anything. I'll take "spoilt bitch" any day before I take "criminal enabling hoe." -- It's nice that Martin accepts Eva, but the way he's handling it is eye-rolling. Eva gets hugs and smiles and full acceptance while Kat is trashed -- to Eva's face. -- Martin is STILL obsessing over the Kat conversation about sex that Samantha heard. Are you kidding me with this? And now Eva offers to speak to Kat. Yeah, very cute that the sister who screwed the other sister's boyfriend is the one with relationship advice. -- The food at Uptown looked pretty good today. Orphey Gene's food has yet to impress me, and I think it's clear that the country club chef is an alcoholic who cannot control his kitchen.
    • At this point, Marlena, John, and Roman all thought Roman was Belle's father. Sami had switched the initial blood tests. When it was time for another round of tests (because Belle was jaundiced), Sami panicked and kidnapped the baby.  Up until January 1994, Sami was the only one who knew that John was Belle's father. Next up were Stefano and Peter, once Stefano read Sami's diary (he figured it would reveal what was going on between John & Marlena). Stefano revealed the truth of Belle's parentage to Roman AFTER Marlena revealed her tryst with John (about two weeks later, to be exact). Marlena and John were the last ones to find out (during February sweeps, naturally). The John Black name was revived in September 1991.
    • The show has been getting better and better. Dani and Andre solidly "coupling" has been amazing. Genie Francis says soaps don't do couples anymore...maybe Dani/Andre can prove her wrong. To me they are the best couple on the show.  Eva vs Kat is always great. The show continues to find ways to keep it going and I'm all for it. Kat annoys me so bad. She is such a spoiled princess and acts it. I agree the comment about wishing Eva had been aborted was low. If that were the case, then why is she constantly getting in Eva's face? Why doesn't Kat just stay away and ignore her completely like she doesn't exist? I know. I know. It wouldn't be soaping.  This Hayley plot to kill Bill now taking a detour onto Izaiah has me curious. Does Hayley even know what she wants? I can't wait to see the fallout for Hayley and Randy....but not too soon.  I am tired of hearing about Winterfest already though. Can we get to it? lol
    • Great rundown of Long's second stint. Now you got me wondering...and again, thinking how real life impacted the direction of the show. We were talking about how practically the minute Long landed back on GL, she wrecked Ross and Vanessa and threw Alan and Reva together. Soon after, Alan started pursuing Vanessa again (because he was SO afraid of the "real" feelings he was having for Reva for the first time in his life, LOL). It's like she was determined to do an Alan/Vanessa/Somebody triangle at some point. She started one with Billy as the third side (well, actually, Alan was the third side) back in late 83/early 84 before Bernau exited GL the first time. So she had to drop it. But since Billy was gone this time, she seemed to decide, hey, I'll do it, only with Reva as the missing side of the triangle. Then Maeve left, messing that up! So I wonder, would she have had Alan and Vanessa marry? Maybe not, but I doubt Vanessa would have taken kindly to being overthrown for Reva. Could have been done in a really humiliating way, like after the invitations went out or even at the wedding. Maybe she would have helped Phillip with his plot to dethrone Alan. Lots of interesting possiblities.  I did like the way this story was handled. Chelsea was clearly more in love with Phillip than he was with her. Even "dead," no one could compete with Beth. So it was always doomed, but they showed how Phillip lost his way because he was obsessed with getting back at his dad. I also thought the relationship between Alan and Chelsea was a little...strange. He was very much in favor of their relationship, even though she came from an even lower background than Beth's. She also always fiercely defended Alan. Which has made me wonder if--ick--one of the many writing teams was thinking about putting them together romantically. (Of course, in my headcanon, where Alan has a youthful romance with the never seen Reardon sister, his fondness for Chelsea then makes perfect sense.) I always wondered why they never thought of putting Chelsea with Rick, especially after they butted heads over the death of her fiance. Seemed like a no-brainer.
    • Aubrey's Marina was great...but they wasted her...she could have been a new Nola (since she was living in the BH I would have had her find the N.R. + K.N. thing Nola carved in her bedroom...."I don't know who this girl was but she seems to be as unhappy as I am stuck here.") And have her set her cap for a good recast Shayne and take on the Old Bag Reva when she tries to interfere.."Oh please, I heard she was back in Oklahamo giving blow jobs behind the gas station, and she acts like she is Mother of the Year...God I hate her."  When they recast with that boring Kit girl and then...cutesy Mandy it was done. I love the idea of Billy and Van bonding over hell on wheels Peter. and kicking **** to the curb.Billy went to prison to protect him from Roger but that was never mentioned when Billy returned. Peter and Aubrey's Marina would raise Hell together..do a Nolaredux  in that he bangs her, she gets preggers, passes that off as Shayne's with Ole Bag Reva suspicious...I could see Marina ringing a bell to get the Ole Bag to bring her some ice cream...."But Grandma...oh you hate that I am sorry, okay, Grammy, you know I can't be stressed and oh, Shayne would be mad if I lost the baby..."ah what could have been.

      Yeah, that's I mentioned the christening, when the truth comes out Reading October and November 1993, what is actually nuts is how much story they went through in a month. Because John's not even interested in Marlena at the time of Belle's birth.  He is rebound lusting for Kristen, who delivered Belle (funny mention in SOD about Marlena being unable to service at the Horton cabin on her "cellular" phone, I assume there was heightened vigilance to the exposition covering the tech of the time).   And, of course, since it was Kristen helping Marlena give birth during a stormy night, they both looked glossy, windswept, and gorgeous.    Justice for Jamie, I bet she's still holding Sami's secrets wherever she is.
    • You know what's crazy? Even though JFP ultimately has been a disaster at many soaps, and even though all the negatives about her are true, I'd still prefer her over Josh Griffith at Y&R. She can take over for him anytime, and I will applaud.
