Bravo's The Real Housewives of....

[NothinButAttitude]

I only suggested Brandi b/c the b*tch does bring drama. Otherwise, I can do without her gutter butt ass. Again, I'd prefer Taylor over her. At least Taylor had boundaries as to how far she'd go with the other ladies. 

 

I thought that final scene was gross. I felt bad for YoLyme's mom and it was obvious this wh*re was doing it to garner some sympathy. In actuality, it made her look sketchier and calculating as f*ck. 

 

This season just feels like a waste b/c I get this inkling feeling that it won't amount to much. Come reunion time, Yolanda will be the center of the drama but won't produce. She'll pull that "I can't think straight" card and leave early when she's called on her sh*t, which will leave us with NOTHING. It's like the OC all over again. Without Brooks ailment, there would've been no show. See this is why I am an advocate for more women on the show. More women (i.e. eight), more drama. Sucky part is that RHOBH has the numbers but the wrong damn cast.

thats if she even shows up to the reunion. I can conveniently see her get too sick to attend, complete with selfies from her deathbed

 

I hate that Ive even thinking this but when Yo said 2 of her kids have Lyme Disease, I thought that was classic Munchausen by proxy. I wonder if her kids are really sick or if she is inventing this to A) get even more sympathy and/or B.) keep them on a tight leash.  Now she's using her kids to justify all her treatments. There is something not right here and she is very manipulative. I dont trust her. This revelation came out of the blue and its odd bc its not an inherited disease

I think she is using her kids to garner more sympathy and they are using it to jumpstart their careers. I rolled my eyes when she said Bella had to stop her writing career b/c she couldn't think straight anymore. However, she models actively now. I thought Lyme Disease caused you to grow tired and be reduced to the bed. Bella's IG depicts otherwise. She stays busy and booked. Also, last time I checked, modeling does consist of thinking too. You have to know your angles, know how to take direction, etc. That all requires thinking. 

 

I think that Yolanda strong-armed that girl into modeling and Bella did it to appease her mom. It's obvious that Gigi is the favorite and she would put this ailment on her least favorite two. It's sickening. 

[Cheap21]

Im not surprised. I rolled my eyes that Gigi, her favorite doesnt have LD, according to her. I wouldnt be shocked if she is manipulating things to hold Bella back so she doesnt outshine Gigi, her favorite.

[NothinButAttitude]

That too. Frankly, I think both girls are mediocre in the modeling field. Neither of them can walk on a runway to save their lives. Both of them have the same damn faces in their photos--their mouths slightly opening like they are ready to blow someone. Only thing they have are good bone structure in the face. Other than that, they are pretty basic if you ask me. They ain't no Naomi, Linda, or Christy.

I hope RHOBH isn't going to become a hybrid of Season Four and OC's last season. I love the Lisa-Lips-Eileen-Kyle quadrangle but the outside influences of Yolanda's disease du jour (and Kim's offscreen trainwreck known as her life) are growing stale fast. 

 

I can see Lisa V taking Erika under her wing as the next outspoken younger friend. The difference is, Erika is her own strong (and wealthy) person and isn't looking for a handout like Brandi.

TMZ is reporting Kyle. Gave Bravo notice she is out

TMZ also has a phone interview with Apollo

 

[Mr. Vixen]

Y'all say Kim is getting dragged but I have seen a ton of love for her all over the Internet!

[NothinButAttitude]

She gets love but she gets just as much hate too. Her husband got dragged on IG the other day....

RHOA

 

While I had a few issues with her (selective amnesia about Tammy's pusher), I like Kim. I find that she brings a different perspective that...if we are going to keep the same girls...is much needed. And some of her TH have been funny. So...she brings something as the outsider who isn't trying to fit in. She JUST IS.

 

RHOBH

 

Well, we knew this was coming with Yolanda and the breast implants. I guess I did fall asleep (been working a lot this December) so I missed that. I did see Eileen being messy. And perhaps it was an accident. But good to see she still has Lips's back as she corrected and explained perfectly.

 

This show has always been a slow burn. And today was the first signs of Eileen v Lisa...hinting at her 'not following your script' tagline. And I can see the 'is she/isn't she' drama of Yolanda leading to much more drama for all the others. Branching out I mean.

Apparently not true - just family feud BS:

i literally laughed out loud when she said her two kids have it. Such lies

[DRW50]

I've seen people praise her for going after Kenya but otherwise not a lot of support. I actually saw one person say their memories of Living Single are now ruined because of her behavior on RHOA.

I'll keep it simple re Yolanda: she is milking everything for sympathy and I think it's a bad decision. That scene at the end with her will was done purely for dramatic effect. And implicating two of her kids as Lyme disease sufferers: maybe they are/were but that's their personal health information and I don't like that she disclosed it on television. LVP has known the kids and Mohammed for years and she had no idea. Why? Because if they do/did have Lyme their father has the sensitivity not to talk about it, even with a close friend.

 

Erika: I'm still very on the fence with her. I like how she is calm and seems sly and intelligent and hard to rattle. And she was certainly eyeing LVP up and down (Yolanda's obviously given her opinions in advance), but she also doesn't seem dumb enough to take someone else's opinion as gospel. She seems hard, but not bitter. It'll be interesting to see how she develops. That Cartier panther ring was incredible. 

 

Eileen: I hope she was having a glass of the driest-white-wine available when she spilled the beans on Lips talking about Yolanda. She didn't throw Lips under the bus of course, given that it seems she and Lips made the wise decision to forge a blood pact about having each other's back, but she seized her moment to keep her hands on a diamond. I liked the peak into the Y&R set, if anyone watched Lisa Kudrow's The Comeback it's funny how Eileen's dressing room is just like Valerie's was: tucked away in the middle of nowhere. 

 

Kyle: not much from her this episode aside from 'working' in 'her' shop. 

 

Lips: that was one of the funnier waxing sessions in Housewives history. She is always hustling, that Lips is. Her waxer could have been the mother of NY's Sonja's facialist. Very gossipy. Lips was wise to run off to Ontario and catch some family time. 

 

LVP: she's a better person than I am. If a swan bit me I'd break its neck. That shows some level of patience I just don't have. She definitely gave Erika a light grilling as the 'new girl' and she's territorial, but she's been bitten before by the likes of Cedric and Brandi, so it's not a surprise she's a lot more guarded these days. 

[Chris B]

Here is a wonderful expose about Yolanda's lyme disease and it uncovers all the lies. I'm one who feels she has something, but not what she says and she is playing for sympathy/story as well. I hope the housewives read this and bring their receipts when they go on WHHL and the reunion. This could ruin their reputations, don't let Yolanda bring you down over her fake storyline.
