Members Chris B Posted May 7, 2014 Members Share Posted May 7, 2014 Marlo was paid for I Dream of Nene and RHOA. As Andy said, most sources are wrong when it comes to their contracts. Hell, most people have still been reporting Phaedra as making 350,000 per season when Apollo just revealed in court that her contract is for 600,000. There is no telling how much Marlo is paid, but I don't doubt she is paid. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted May 7, 2014 Author Members Share Posted May 7, 2014 (edited) for real. Why the heck would she do this show for free? I could understand if she was an actress and possibly using this to up her profile or maybe if she was using this to promote her business, but she isnt and hasnt. She came in on season 4 to work and she put herself out there for money. Even Mama Joyce is getting paid to act a fool. The only ones with guaranteed money are the wives. All else get paid per episode they appear and the rates will vary depending on their importance/tenure. Alex McCord even revealed in her blog that the reason she declined the offer to be a friend was bc she'd put in the same amount of work, but with less pay. She is an insider and I trust what she has to say. LuAnn as a friend gets paid but much less than before. Brandi on BH, talked about how she got paid as a friend before officially getting bumped up to main status. Marlo is a hustler. She isnt stupid and most definetly does not work for free I get what you are saying but Kristen already got her back for the thrown drink last week when she splashed her back. I did think Kristen did too much when she repeatedly kicked water onto Ramona, rocked the boat and refused to get away from her when she was told to leave her alone. She most definetly provoked Ramona in this situation and is far from innocent. Throwing a glass at Kristen was assault but I think that context in which this all went down is vital to the story. IMO, Kristen was the aggressor bc of all the stuff she was doing to lead into Ramona throwing that glass to get her to back up and she did leave Ramona alone once she got hit. Personally as wrong as it is, I cant be sure I wouldnt have done something similar. I can barely swim and if someone was rocking a small canoe out on a lake and I was on and kicking water towards me, Id do what was necessary to get them to stop. I definetly dont think she did it for ratings. I dont think there was anything tht calculating about this. She clearly doesnt like Kristen and in that moment, she felt threatened. It was an impulsive move pure and simple towards someone she's had issues with Edited May 7, 2014 by Cheap21 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members ChitHappens Posted May 7, 2014 Members Share Posted May 7, 2014 Lawd! This looks scary, but Paula Jai White might be interesting. She cracks me up in whatever role she plays. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Chris B Posted May 7, 2014 Members Share Posted May 7, 2014 That makes me sad that Bravo didn't find a spot for her on their network. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Eric83 Posted May 7, 2014 Members Share Posted May 7, 2014 I am sad Golden Brooks cant get legitimate work and has to resort to this. Are her and Nene friends still? It would have been nice to re introduce her on RHOA but then again the show has changed ALOT since she was last on. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted May 7, 2014 Author Members Share Posted May 7, 2014 I would think so as Lisa attended her wedding. We all know Sheree didnt get an invite 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members NothinButAttitude Posted May 7, 2014 Members Share Posted May 7, 2014 Countess? Elise? Paula? My precious Golden?! These four women should NOT be on a reality show but a sitcom instead. And I agree that Bravo should've offered Lisa some money to return, but I doubt that she wants to return. She seemed to be jaded about RHOA and her cast members (preferably Nene, Sheree, & Kim) after leaving. I think that her and Nene are cordial and she did attend her wedding, but I doubt they are close as they use to be. Nene tends to shade her original co-stars in many of her interviews. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ChitHappens Posted May 7, 2014 Members Share Posted May 7, 2014 Lisa left because she didn't want to put any more of her private life out there than she was. Bravo wanted her to step it up some and Lisa walked. Good for her. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Chris B Posted May 7, 2014 Members Share Posted May 7, 2014 I believe Bravo wanted Lisa, but I think her exit had more to due with her not wanting to air her problems with Ed on tv. As it stood, she couldn't feature her two older kids because of Keith Sweat's dog ass. I think it's a shame because I've always felt Lisa deserved what would've come with staying on the show. I believe both of her seasons she delivering from beginning to end and I hated to see her go. I'm re-watching the series and I just saw the episode where she visited her brothers grave (and took the trip to LA with Nene) and she was great. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Cheap21 Posted May 7, 2014 Author Members Share Posted May 7, 2014 (edited) I read that Lisa left bc she and Ed moved from ATL. They were too far for regular filming which is why she was only able to attend a handful of functions in season 3 IA with Chris that she was an amazing cast member, especially in season 2. I lived for her hate of Wig, which was overshadowed by Nene and Sheree hating her but I thought Lisa vs Wig was legendary Edited May 7, 2014 by Cheap21 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Chris B Posted May 7, 2014 Members Share Posted May 7, 2014 She will flip you over the couch. I'll never forget that. She is the only one to shut Wig down. Even Nene couldn't shut Wig down because Wig knew too much and wasn't scared of her big sour ass. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members London Posted May 7, 2014 Members Share Posted May 7, 2014 YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAS ya'll discussing this. I was LMAO when I saw Todd's name... but on some level... I'm not too surprised. I'm kinda meh over the cast. I liked Lisa on RHOA. I can't really care about the rest... maybe Countess and Paula since I haven't seen much from them over the years. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
