Carole Radziwill Defends Friendship With Bethenny Frankel; Retweets Slams Against Luann de Lesseps!

Carole Radziwill on WWHL

Carole Radziwill on WWHL

Carole Radziwill‘s latest blog was a diatribe against “The Housewife Narcissist” (THN), a classic example of whom, according to Carole, is Luann de Lesseps. Carole is quite proud of her blog and wants to make “THN” a thing we’ll all be repeating like, “Thug in a cocktail dress,” so she followed up her blog with a rousing round of her favorite gameretweeting mean comments about Luann! Except Carole may have inadvertently poked a very unwanted bear in the process!  

In a desperate attempt to make us appreciate her cleverness, the Real Housewives Of New York star bragged of her blog, “I slay like Beyonce! Who is your THN? #rhony” (Let’s hope that was sarcasm, cause um…. otherwise someone put batshit crazy in Carole’s lemonade.) Inviting viewers to name “‘The Housewife Narcissist’ in each city and win a prize!” resulted in Carole re-tweeting a list which included NeNe Leakes!

Now you know Ms. Leakes isn’t going to ignore this – and Carole crumbles over Confrontations With The Countess…  You know you have your popcorn popped and ready to go!

Let’s dive deeper into Carole’s reality, which also includes earnestly defending her buddy Bethenny Frankel. 

Carole extolled the virtues of her ‘real’ friendship with Bethenny, and defended their decision to rudely bail on Jules Wainstein‘s brunch while mocking Jules and her house. A THN move Carole did not mention in her blog… 

“Anyone would have bolted…we stayed too long as it was…#dirty #dusty #bees #uncomfortable,” Carole complained

carole-jules

Wasn’t Carole on WWHL talking about how she never says anything mean about Luann and how retweeting ‘truths’ from the viewers isn’t the same as saying mean things about Luann? Sounds like Ms. #ZeroF–ksJr gives too many f–ks about Lu. 

Screen Shot 2016-04-29 at 5.54.21 PM

A viewer called Carole out on her nonsense behavior of claiming a retweet is not the same as tweeting, but she laughed it off by claiming Luann deserves it because she called her a pedophile. Anyone remember this?! Anyone?! I mean WHEN DID THIS HAPPEN?! Luann said a lot of egregious things (as did Carole), but I don’t recall this one, which Carole mentions every single day like Baby with a bone! 

As for why Bethenny was confronting Luann on Carole’s behalf during her birthday party, Carole praised Bethenny as a “#Empowering #Smart #Pragmatic” friend and sniped, “Yes, I’ll repeat myself. Friends support one another. Is that loud and clear enough for you? @Bethenny #rhony” It must be exhausting fake-loving Bethenny so hard.

And, the woman who slut-shamed Luann and skinny-shamed Jules, then lectured us about what female-bashing misogynists we all are. “It’s unfortunate that women as well as men perpetuate our sexist, misogynistic culture. #rhony,” she tweeted. I think the word Carole really needs to learn the definition of is “hypocrite,” being that she’s a “writer girl” and all. 

However the most glaring example of Carole not understanding hypocrisy (or irony) is when she tweeted this gem: 

carole-own-it

Hilarious because Bethenny, Carole’s bestie, is a main offender of the ‘owning it’ excuse. Of course instead of own it, Bethenny prefers to boast that it’s the season of “zero f–ks”

Here’s the thing Carole, sure, you can saaaaay that moving on is a sign that a person is a narcissist incapable of apologizing or forming true relationships, but also a narcissist: A person who can’t accept responsibility for their own actions or view themselves truthfully. So, my THN is YOU, my dear.

Shannon Beador Sells Orange County Mansion For $9 Million!

Watch What Happens Live - Season 12

Watch What Happens Live - Season 12

Well, Shannon Beador just earned a tasty little $9 million dollar check. Not a Heather Dubrow check, but a nice one all the same! 

Despite being in the desirable Crystal Cove neighborhood of Newport Beach, Shannon and David Beador have been trying for years to sell the home that crystals just could not cleanse of marital woes. First they listed the home for $16 million during Shannon’s first season on Real Housewives Of Orange County, then the Beadors dropped the price to $13.5 million, finally dropping it again for $10.898 million!

CLICK THE CONTINUE READING BUTTON FOR MORE!

Maybe all prospective buyers were scared off by the bad juju the house carried from Real Housewives Of Orange County… 

It looks like the Beadors finally found a buyer for their holistic home! The LA Times reports that Newport Property records show that Shannon’s 13,306 square feet mansion sold for $9.05 million. 

I’m sure this will become a storyline this season on Real Housewives Of Orange County. Shannon and Heather can bond over building the most ostentatious mansions money could buy – or maybe they’ll go all-out for a mansion war!

No word on when and where Shannon is moving, but there was reportedly some drama about filming no longer being permitted in Crystal Cove due to the extreme exclusivity of the area, the bevy of celebrity homeowners, and the annoyance of Bravo impugning on their privacy (and clogging up their manicured roads with their crews and equipment.)

Hopefully that won’t be a problem wherever the Beadors move next. And given that Tamra Judge is a ‘real estate agent’ I’m sure we’ll see her fake-selling Shannon a home. Or maybe Shannon will just call one of the Million Dollar Listing: LA boys.

Judge Issues An Arrest Warrant For Kim Richards

Kim Richards bench warrant for arrest

Kim Richards arrest warrant

A judge has issued an arrest warrant for Kim Richards.

Apparently, TMZ didn’t get the memo that Kim‘s recovery is private, because they went and shared that bit of breaking news with the world. Somewhere, the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star hissed, “Shut your f-ing mouth, TMZ! I’ve had enough of you, you beast!”

CLICK CONTINUE READING FOR MORE!

Why is there an arrest warrant out for Kim?

Well, Kim accepted a plea deal that included 52 AA meetings and 30 days of community labor, and she hasn’t provided the court with any proof that she has completed either one.

Kim got in trouble earlier this year because she blew off her community labor. If you will recall, she had requested community service – not labor – due to a foot injury. The judge was like, Yeah, NO. Get to work.

Now, the judge issued an arrest warrant for Kim because she reportedly did not attend the AA meetings, either. And if she fails to cough up some proof that she has held up her end of the deal, she will go to jail.

Kim‘s bail has been set at $26,000.

Abby Lee Miller Blames Dance Moms For Bankruptcy

Abby Lee Miller

Abby Lee Miller

I don’t get why anyone would lie about their finances…especially if they do their job in front of reality show cameras and seem to be pretty successful. My girl Abby Lee Miller is being charged with bankruptcy fraud and has been acting all kinds of erratic during this current season of Dance Moms. I don’t blame her for being stressed out since it’s a pretty big deal, but it really doesn’t seem to be helping matters.

Aside from that, some information has come out from when she filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy on Dec. 3, 2010. She claimed to make a pretty minimal salary with a monthly income of $8,882.55. But aside from that and the other specific (but honestly boring) financial information that she claimed, what really stood out to me was that Abby threw some of the Dance Moms cast under the bus and cited them as people who owe her money.

CLICK “CONTINUE READING” TO SEE WHO SHE CALLED OUT!

I’m not really into looking at all the specific financials claimed, the bottom line is that she is claiming to make a minimal amount of money and have an outrageous amount of expenses. In a report obtained by Radar Online, Abby said that her Abby Lee Dance Studio customers owed her $7,356. The most juicy thing about that is that she actually listed specific people who she said needed to pay her for her services. Of course, there were some familiar names.

According to Miller, Chloe Lukasiak‘s family owed her $500 and sisters Brooke and Paige Hyland‘s family owed $800.  It’s pretty interesting that the people who she says owe her payments are those who I remember abruptly leaving the team (and subsequently the reality show). So I wonder if they just stuck it to Abby and just didn’t pay or if Abby has an ax to grind by calling out her enemies. I wonder what moms Christi Lukasiak and Kelly Hyland have to say about these claims.

RELATED: Abby Lee Miller Takes Credit For Maddie Ziegler’s Success

In less controversial claims, Abby said she spent over $3,000 on costumes and a seamstress for her dancers. So I’m not sure if she’s saying that people owe her that money or what with that. She was granted a discharge from her Chapter 11 case, but now she is in trouble for allegedly concealing her assets after she was charged with making false bankruptcy declarations in November. She pleaded not guilty, but if she does end up being found guilty, she could be in jail for five years and owe $5 million in fines.

Obviously, I have no inside knowledge of Abby‘s finances, but I do watch her show and she does seem to be very successful. Hopefully she can find some way to straighten this all out. I have no clue how much money goes into running a dance studio, but I hope that she was not trying to hide her assets.

That never goes well. Just ask Teresa Giudice.

Aviva Drescher Says Real Housewives Producers Encourage Storylines; Blames Them For #Bookgate

Aviva Drescher

Aviva Drescher

Aviva Drescher, one-part leggy blonde, one-part legally insane (at least on reality TV), was watching the Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills reunion and was inspired to share some behind-the-scenes details from her own days as a Housewife.  

Remember #Bookgate? The feud Aviva had with Carole Radziwill, which began after Aviva accused Carole of secretly using a ghostwriter for her famous memoir, What Remains? Carole denied it, of course, but Aviva even named-names for this alleged ghostwriter. The Real Housewives Of New York star claimed to have heard this bit of gossip as the “word on the street.” But was it? Now she’s changing her story!  

CLICK THE CONTINUE READING BUTTON FOR MORE!

Comparing #Bookgate to #Manipulationgate on Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills, Aviva heavily insinuates that the questioning about Yolanda’s Lyme Journey was a story line, instrumented by producers, and Aviva also claims, “I was always encouraged 2 do storylines!” 

Still, Aviva wonders, “If Lisa V encouraged Lisa R to do Munchausen thing for storyline does that make it ok?”

aviva-tweets-1

Taking it up a notch, Aviva straight-up accuses Bookgate of being a storyline (she doesn’t mention whether or not there was some truth to the accusation, though!). 

aviva-tweets-2

Aviva also gushed over being compared to Kathryn Edwards. “Beyond flattered that some peeps think I look like @_KathrynEdwards! She is STUNNING !!! #RHOBH,” she tweeted. 

Interesting statements from Aviva! I’m dying to know which Housewife “encouraged” Bookgate. Perhaps Luann de Lesseps, since Carole seems to have unnatural venomous feelings towards her? I’m inclined to believe it’s someone else. Someone who has a bit more sinister motives (Luann for all her imperiousness has never seemed the malicious and scheming sort – too self-absorbed!). 

The even bigger question: if Carole knew producers had been behind Bookgate, an accusation she took so personally, what is her motivation to return for another season? #NarcissimGate

I’m also curious to see if any of the ladies from RHOBH or RHONY will comment on Aviva‘s statements? 

TELL US – DO YOU BELIEVE PRODUCERS ENCOURAGED #BOOKGATE? IF SO, WHICH CASTMATE DO YOU THINK WAS BEHIND MENTIONING IT?

Carole Radziwill Calls Luann de Lesseps “The Housewife Narcissist”

Carole Radziwill

Carole Radziwill

If you watched the latest episode of Real Housewives of New York City, you know that Carole Radziwill is so done with Luann de Lesseps. Luann (sort of) tried to make amends with Carole in the aftermath of their epic feud and Carole was not down for that. She was looking for an apology and never got it, so what did she do? She really went in on Luann in the interviews and threw some pretty serious shade.

Carole didn’t leave all of her barbs to the episode though, she continued to come for Luann after the fact. In her Bravo blog, Carole gave The Countess a new nickname and it is not a very nice one: The Housewife Narcissist. For a writer, that really is not the catchiest or most concise insult, but her message is definitely loud and clear. So why does Carole feel like this is more fitting than acknowledging Luann by name in her write-up?

CLICK “CONTINUE READING” TO FIND OUT!

If anyone is going to have a good Bravo blog, it’s Carole. She is a professional writer, after all. I would hate to be on her bad side: the woman really knows how to hit her enemies where it hurts.  Carole went in right away, writing,”‘Move on,’ says the woman who still calls herself a Countess more than a half-decade after her marriage ended.” SHADE THROWN. What an opening line. It isn’t even about me and I’m a little bit scared reading it.

She was far from done though. Carole explained, “‘Moving on’ is a concept invented by Housewives. Housewives who behave so appallingly all they can do is say they are moving on, preferably in a place where everyone can hear them. To stay put and acknowledge that their actions have consequences and to accept responsibility is simply too painful for this particular brand of narcissist.” Well, damn that’s some pretty on point analysis. I almost want to make a compilation of scenes with all of the Housewives who have used the phrase “moving on” in that way because I feel like there has been a ton of them over the years.

Carole continued, “It’s Housewife speak for: I said something rude and don’t want to admit it by apologizing or even risk bringing it up again but I am obligated to see you so I’ll say I’ve moved on. The fans and viewers of the show are not stupid. Delusion and denial does not equal an apology.” On the episode Luann said that Carole couldn’t get her apology out, but I feel like if one of them just uttered the words “I’m sorry,” things could have been a lot better. Instead, they both insisted that the other went way beyond with the insults and they are clearly not over with this feud.

Carole anointed Luann with a new nickname when she wrote, “But ‘The Housewife Narcissist’ is committed to her superficiality. She banks on her ability to scratch her surface and see only more surface.” Then she went on to give her own term an acronym when she wrote, “THN doesn’t live in the past – for her there is no past because you are accountable for your past – the good, the bad, and the ugly.”

And if you thought that renaming Luann as THN was rough, the blog got even more scathing with some pretty personal digs: “THN has a lifetime of experience running from one relationship to the next, one friend to another. Running from taking responsibility for what they do and what they say without ever looking back to witness the destruction they leave in their wake. They are always pointing their fingers toward someone else. Moving on.” It’s safe to say that things are definitely “uncool” between Carole and Luann. And I’m wondering if Carole has just banished the word “Luann” like Lord Voldemort in Harry Potter. Will “THN” live on in her future blog entries or was this a one-time barb?

It pains me as a viewer because I really am a fan of both ladies. I’m not going to lie, I have laughed at a lot of the shady remarks, but it just seems so petty at this point. Hopefully they can both own up to what has been said and actually “move on”- for real.

Why Did Landon Clements Turn Down A Role On The Hills?

If you thought that Landon Clements looked familiar when she first joined Southern Charm, you might have caught on to something. No, you’re not going crazy. You might have actually seen her before on another TV series. Pre-Southern Charm, Landon appeared on the iconic reality series The Hills.

Wait. What!? She was on the show because she was friends with both Lauren Conrad and Heidi Montag. Not only that, but Landon also worked for events producer Brent Bolthouse, where Heidi also “worked.” 

The people at MTV even approached Landon about being a full-time cast member, but she turned them down. Umm, come again?! The Hills was such a major television phenomenon. How could she not be into that? Well, it turns out that Landon had some pretty valid reasons to decline the offer.

This is not the first time that a person associated with The Hills has claimed that the drama was less than authentic, so Landon‘s comments should not be super shocking. Landon told Page Six,  “With The Hills, I didn’t feel that comfortable developing my story. They wanted me to go after so-and-so’s boyfriend and all this. That’s not me.” At this point, no one is at all surprised to hear this type of claim. Nevertheless, as a die hard fan of the faux reality show, I am wondering whose boyfriend MTV was pushing her to steal and I’m sure I’m not the only one who is curious.

Landon also felt like she was not experienced enough to take on the reality life. She said,  “I wasn’t on the show that much because, at the time, I really wanted to build my career. I was in my twenties and I wasn’t ready for it.” How refreshing. A twenty-something girl who is not desperate for fame and preferred to focus on her career. She is a real novelty, that’s for sure.

Landon has been on Southern Charm for two seasons and she feels like that is a way better fit for her. Landon explained, “Hanging out at the beach with all of my guy friends is me, I feel comfortable with that.” That makes sense. I don’t blame her at all for declining the opportunity to steal someone else’s boyfriend on a nationally televised show. Hanging with people that she is really friends with and living out her actual life seems like a much more enjoyable gig to me.

Now, I have so many Hills related questions that I would love to ask Landon. First and foremost, if she still keeps in touch with Lauren and/or Heidi.

Jax Taylor And Tom Schwartz Step Up To Defend Lisa Vanderpump

The women on Real Housewives of Beverly Hills have really gone in on Lisa Vanderpump this season – well, except for Kyle Richards and Kathryn Edwards, who are staunch LVP supporters. The rest of the ladies have been claiming that Lisa is very manipulative behind the scenes of the show. The queen bee is being attacked left and right and whether you think it’s justified or not, you have to admit that it has to be a lot for her to handle.

This is the exact opposite of how things go on Vanderpump Rules. For the most part, the workers at SUR adore and obey LVP. Lisa‘s employee Jax Taylor and occasional restaurant staffer Tom Schwartz came to her defense in response to the RHOBH drama.

CLICK CONTINUE READING TO SEE WHAT THEY SAID!

During a Bravo interview Jax said, “I don’t really watch [RHOBH] that much, so I’m kind of clueless on it, but I don’t really see that happening.” This is not at all shocking. Jax and Lisa have always got along pretty well, no matter what he does at her restaurant SUR, so it make sense for him not to talk trash about his boss. He definitely could have said something more definitive to help the woman out, but he tried and I don’t blame him for being wary when it comes to sharing an opinion without any context.

Tom, who has admitted to crushing on LVP several times on Vanderpump Rules, was much more adamantly #TeamLisa with his defense. Tom said, “To me, it’s surprising because usually, the way I see Lisa is cool, calm, collected, the voice of reason. And to hear [her] in the trenches, it’s a surprise for me.” Tom thinks the world of Lisa, so it is not surprising that he would defend her against these manipulation claims or any other criticisms.

Tom also said, “I’ve never really seen her be manipulative, but I will say she has a way with words. She can win you over very easily with her words.” In his eyes, Lisa is just a charming women, so maybe the other women got this wrong? Tom praised LVP even further and went a little bit off topic when he said that she is “very convincing. She’s persuasive. And incredibly charming. Don’t get me started on Lisa.” So maybe it’s possible that Lisa is just a mesmerizing person who is easy for others to agree with? That could be a positive spin on what the RHOBH ladies have been claiming.

Whether you love LVP or hate her, it is nice to see that she isn’t fighting this war of words on her own since she has the Pump Rules cast to support her.

Luann de Lesseps Reacts To Carole Radziwill’s Trash Talk

luann-de-lesseps-carole-radziwill

luann-de-lesseps-carole-radziwill

These women on Real Housewives go through a lot of drama- and then they have to watch it all again on TV and hear what everyone had to say behind their back. So I imagine that makes it pretty difficult to get past an argument with a friend (or even a frienemy). On the latest episode of RHONY, Luann de Lesseps did what she could to make amends with Carole Radziwill, but Carole was not having it. Neither of them felt like they had anything to apologize for so they just agreed to be cordial…supposedly.

Carole made a lot of comments about Luann during the interviews so I guess that agreement was short-lived. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not trying to say that this whole fight should be put on Carole, but they both talked a lot of shit about each other. So they both should have just apologized. At least Luann tried to be civil in the Hamptons, but just like the rest of us fans, she also watched the episode and was caught off guard by Carole‘s comments about her. Luckily for us, we don’t have to wait for the next RHONY reunion to hear what she has to say. Luann put all of her reactions in her Bravo blog this week.

Even though I really do think it’s childish that neither of these women would apologize to each other, I still feel like Luann was trying her best to be civil during the latest episode. So it must have been a major slap in the face to watch the show and see Carole making jabs against her.

Carole really had a lot say about everything Luann did in the Hamptons. She even took issue with her entrance to Bethenny Frankel‘s party. Luann mentioned this in her blog, “You can see when I arrived at Bethenny’s party that I was in a great mood and that I brought a hula-hoop just for the fun of it. Who doesn’t love hula-hoops? If Carole doesn’t like the way I make an entrance, she should stay home. Instead she talked about me behind my back and was a huge downer.” I don’t really see why it is so awful to bring a hula hoop to an outdoor party. I really get why Carole would not like Luann, she talked a lot of trash about Carole, but come on: taking issue with a hula hoop is not making you look good either, Radzi.

Luann emphasized that she was trying to make peace during that party when she wrote, “I was completely ready to make up and move forward, but Carole will not let go of an argument that lost its relevancy a year ago! Old news! Instead of burying the hatchet, I felt like Carole was chasing me with one.” I’m pretty sure she quoted her own line from the episode with that last line, but I don’t blame her because it was pretty on point and clever.

Then when Carole explained that she was surprised Luann brought a date to brunch because “usually her dates don’t stay for breakfast, I was floored. SHADE THROWN. But I guess that was more of a blatant insult since it lacked the subtlety of shade. As expected, Luann did not take too kindly to that remark either. In response to that she wrote, “What Carole said about my date Paul making it all the way to brunch was rude and shows that she will be nice to my face while insulting me behind my back. Her focus on my love life says more about her than it does about me.” Although the comment made for great TV, I don’t think it was necessary to make, especially if the two of them just agreed to be cordial.

As usual, The Countess was able to articulate her reactions and burns with a succinct sting. And if I “know” her at all, I have a feeling that she is using all of this to inspire a brand new single that I will shamelessly bop along to.
