You knew the honeymoon couldn't last, right? In Beauty and the Beast's fourth (and final, ack!) season premiere, Cat (Kristin Kreuk) and Vincent's (Jay Ryan) European honeymoon was...
The rest may be written after all: A reunion movie for MTV's The Hills could be nigh, E! News has learned. According to a source, some of the ladies who shot to fame on the MTV...It seemed like Bravo was really set on portraying LeeAnne Locken to be the villain with Brandi Redmond as her main adversary on Real Housewives of Dallas. These two were coming for each other in person and shit talking right from the first episode. Then everyone started hating LeeAnne which was not at all surprising since LeeAnne is a stuck up shit stirrer- who will probably blame the editing for her poor portrayal whenever she has the chance.
I just figured that everyone had equal animosity with LeeAnne, but apparently it’s actually Cary Deuber who really hates her the most- at least at this point in the season. I completely understand why since LeeAnne has been going out of her way to talk down to Cary and embarrass her on reality television. There is one person who doesn’t really seem to get it though and that’s LeeAnne herself.

Anyone who watches Real Housewives of Dallas knows that LeeAnne gets off on talking shit, spreading rumors, and then acting all innocent and self righteous when that doesn’t work out. The Cary bashing doesn’t end with the show though. LeeAnne used her Bravo blog to make it seem like she naively has no idea why Cary hates her.
First, she took issue with Cary’s joking comment about keeping her enemies closer in reference to being forced to hang with LeeAnne in a group setting: “‘Keep your enemies closer?’ Bleh. This is the perfect example of WHY I think Cary HATES me.” Cary hates you because you act stuck up about the “charity world,” tried to turn her against Brandi at that awkward lunch, started rumors about her being a homewrecker, and invited her to Heidi Dillon’s party just to ostracize her. So let’s not act like Cary invented this to cause some drama for the show. Even anyone is seeking camera time, it’s you, LeeAnne.
LeeAnne also wrote: “Earlier in the episode, Cary said that Stephanie was falling for my ‘B.S.’ and believing in my B.S. Now she’s calling me her enemy. These are not things you do if you are trying to give someone a chance, trying to get to know them. There has never been a chance for Cary and I to get to know one another because of these actions.” Right. How is it Cary’s responsibility to give LeeAnne a chance when LeeAnne is doing everything she can to ruin Cary’s reputation? It’s unreal how LeeAnne is acting like the victim and pretending that she’s so hurt that Cary is not her friend. Please.
I feel like LeeAnne was doing the most and trying to seem profound when she wrote, “Here’s the bottom line: Cary believes I’m full of sh–. I’m a liar. And Cary has now called me her enemy. What’s different with me? I feel NONE of these things toward her.” It’s absurd that LeeAnne is acting as if she’s never done anything to Cary. She has spent most of her time on the show trying to bring Cary down and now she is acting like this is a one-sided feud. Is she not watching the same show that I am?
LeeAnne tried to get all emotional when she wrote even more about Cary supposedly not giving her a chance at friendship: “But I have ALWAYS felt those things from her, and that makes me put my guard up, naturally. So, in turn, she has never had the chance to see the real LeeAnne because she doesn’t WANT to.” It just seems to me like Cary is a good judge in character since LeeAnne attempts to slaughter her reputation and spread rumors whenever possible. Not to mention that LeeAnne has a pretty bad case of Tyra Banks syndrome since she has a tendency to make everything about herself-especially charity events.
LeeAnne also wrote, “And she’d like it if Stephanie and Brandi would never give me a chance. That is one of the saddest things.” I don’t think that Cary is going out of her way to prevent Stephanie and Brandi from being friends with LeeAnne: it seems like LeeAnne is making that happen on her own.
LeeAnne pretended to show compassion (yet again) when she wrote about how she cares for Cary: “You know, just for a silly, light example, when Mark was critiquing Cary on their daughter’s birthday cake, I was actually thinking, ‘Dude! Mark, chill.’ I was on her side. But I feel like I’ll never get Cary to take my side. I feel like every time I share my story in front of Cary, she thinks I’m fake crying or doing it for attention. I’ve only ever wanted understanding. Watching Cary call me her enemy is heartbreaking, and I feel like there’s a wedge now; I don’t know how to resolve it.
But life is full of bumps in the road.” No one is buying it, LeeAnne. No matter how extreme the editing could be, LeeAnne’s actions and words have made her the undisputed bully of season one. It is really hard to believe that anything she does is genuine when she is constantly starting drama and sitting on her high horse.

Two weeks ago, a random assortment of west coast reality TV stars, including Lala Kent, James Kennedy, and Farrah Abraham, came out for the OK! Magazine “So Sexy” Party in West Hollywood. Last night, OK! threw the same party for the east coast stars in New York City.
Above: Real Housewives of Atlanta star Kandi Burruss shows us why she’s worthy of the “So Sexy” invite. Is it just me, or has Kandi never looked better?! And I don’t mean just her figure, she’s positively glowing these days. Seriously, I will have what she is having. Um, err, except for the crazy mother and the infant that doesn’t sleep through the night. 
The majority of the party goers were stars from Mob Wives and The Real Housewives of New Jersey, including Drita D’Avanzo, Brittany Foggarty, Karen Gravano, Carla Facciolo, Jacqueline Laurita, and Rosie Pierrri, but a few from Party Down South, Big Brother, Rich Kids of Beverly Hills, and Real Housewives of New York made an appearance as well. Check out the pics below.

Spoiler alert: You're old. Wanna know the latest reason why? Because the 100th Disney Channel Original Movie is upon us. Yes, there are now 100 DCOMs in existence, spanning from the late...Matt Jordan and Kenya Moore have called it quits, and sadly, things did not end well for the Real Housewives of Atlanta couple.
Matt and Kenya went away for the holiday and everything seemed to be going well…until Kenya erased Matt from her Instagram and Matt set his Instagram to private. Before doing so, he posted a message about trust in a relationship, but he offered no additional information about the break up. TMZ has since filled in the blanks, of course, and it’s not good. Not. At. All.

According to TMZ, Matt and Kenya got into a huge fight in Mexico, which led to Kenya locking herself in their room. And that led to Matt kicking down (and breaking) the door to the room. Once inside, Matt went off and called Kenya a “bitch” and a “c-nt” over and over again.
Kenya and Matt flew home together as planned (albeit in newly separated seats) but went their separate ways in Atlanta. Matt reportedly came to Kenya’s house later to return her luggage and blew up again. And Kenya called it quits.
Matt took to Instagram to admit blame.
“Looking back, I blame myself totally,” shared Matt. “I learned very late in the relationship that a woman will not trust a man fully if she seems irresponsible or not up to standard in areas of a relationship. If she doesn’t feel like she can put trust in a man emotionally, spiritually, financially, etc…that will cause a woman to feel resentment and most of all untrusting in her man.”

Matt continued, “Because of what he lacks, she does not feel like she will be properly protected or served. The woman will not feel like she can give her all to a man that is unstable or irresponsible in areas of the relationship. Causing her to go inward emotionally.”
On her Instagram, Kenya posted a pic of broken sunglasses, adding, “Love is never aggressive, hurtful, threatening, vindictive or accusatory, nor distrustful. Love is never a c–t or a bitch. Love is never demeaning or degrading. My love is real. My love is kind. My love is protective. My love elevates not destroys. My love is generous. My love is forgiving. My love is patient. My love is respectful. My love is worthy of the same.” Kenya has since deleted the post, reportedly at Matt‘s request.
Kenya took that picture down, then asked for privacy, “Matt and I are having some issues but there is no question we have love for each other. Respectfully, please allow me to go through my own process. We appreciate some privacy at this time.”
According to Tamara Tattles source, Kenya is “just fine” and “already hard at work on a new project in NYC.” Also, filming for Real Housewives of Atlanta begins next week, so that will occupy her time as well.

One of the things I love about our site and writers is that we never all agree on the reality shows and stars all of the time (but we still ‘get’ each others’ arguments for our favorites). Case in point: Bethenny Frankel. She’s a polarizing character on The Real Housewives of New York – you love her or you can’t take her. I fall into the former category. I love Bethenny’s tell-it-like-it-is attitude, her sarcasm, her over the top dramatic yelling, her inappropriate humor, all of it. I can’t help it. It puts me in the minority sometimes, but I’m okay with that. After last night’s episode Mary and I were emailing and it was funny how when it came to analyzing Bethenny’s actions of the night, we were at opposite ends of the spectrum, but we still had fun bantering about the episode anyway. And we agreed on one thing for sure: that we’d both take that birthday cake and go hide someplace quiet with a fork (or maybe just bare hands). At the end of the day, it’s just a reality show and it’s just fun to watch the insanity, especially on RHONY because these ladies get over their issues faster than any other Housewives franchise and get back to having fun. (As we Tweeted last night, “You’re a slut! No, You’re a slut! <ten minutes later>…Let’s go open presents).
Anywho. Love her (me and other writers who shall remain anonymous) or hate her (Mary and other writers who shall remain anonymous), Bethenny shared her side of the Berkshires drama in her blog today. “I remember being very tired and stressed from work, and it seemed that I had a zero tolerance policy for bullsh–. I walked in and it was game on. I still had my coat on, and I was in the ring. The hair comments were just bizarre. Let’s just say that I copied Luann strand for strand. Now what? Compare our beavers? I was just confused. I mean she has had that hair since the dawn of man. I suppose it took me eight years to muster up the courage to attempt to look like the woman that I admire and respect so much. I mean…”
Bethenny says she was just possessed by truth serum and let it fly at Luann. “Then the Skinnygirl convo. Well, we know how that worked out with John and Sonja, so three was definitely not a charm. Luann never lets the truth get in the way of a bad story, and I was just set off. It was like I drank truth serum and just decided to rail into her and honestly tell her exactly what I and everyone says about her behind her back. And I mean every Housewife, new and old, who possessed the ability to speak and express themselves.”
Bethenny does think Luann can be fun and she’s not a fragile flower, “This dates back to our fashion show snake days and has just reared its ugly head from time to time. Truly, I don’t even mind Luann. She can be good fun. Her little act about me spending the summer at her house and her taking me into her family entails me going to one dinner and one daytime boat ride. Now we’re members of the mafia together. Who knows… I let it all hang out and genuinely give zero f—s. It felt good. I speak the truth. The good news is that Luann is resilient, and I don’t think it hurts. Luann is a survivor. Ain’t nothin’ knocking her down. Not with this group.”
Bethenny then jokes about Ramona‘s dog and the fact that she banged up Bethenny’s restored car this weekend. (If you subscribe to SiriusXM, you should listen to Bethenny’s episode from yesterday where she explains what happened this weekend in the Hamptons – it’s hysterical). Bethenny writes, “Otherwise, Ramona’s dog was hilarious. It is so her. Literally this past weekend she came over, I showed her my brand new, never-driven car and she scratches the door by opening it and banging it against a stone wall. Then she blames me for parking too close. Ramona is vintage Housewives gold.”
She does think Lu was a little insensitive to Jules about her dad, “Sorry about Jules’ dad. Luann seemed real concerned. Evidently my calling her a slut trumped the poor girl’s dying father. Gotta love Luann. She has her priorities straight.”
Despite some snark, Bethenny does want happiness for Luann, “I also love that she (Lu) felt the need to point out that Tom wanted her, not Ramona. Bottom line is he went out with Ramona multiple times. They may or may not have slept together, but I saw them on a date, and they were digging each other. He was making the rounds. Luann saw him out, said “me next” and the rest is history. All kidding aside, everyone deserves to be happy, and I genuinely hope Luann is happy with Tom. No shade. She was with dozens of men this summer searching, and I really would be happy if she found the one.”
Bethenny apologizes to Dorinda for the crazy that ensued, “To Dorinda, sorry that not only Coco the dog but I also sh– all over your party. I got fired up, and I guess my manners are in NY or I lost them along the way. Plus, your lasagna was great as were your biscotti and the sweet bday cake from your mom.”
Bethenny closes with, “This was a perfectly idiotic Housewives episode, so I’m happy, and I reckon Andy Cohen is too.”

Tamar Braxton was devastated and heartbroken by her untimely exit from The Real but refuses to call it a career setback. And she has something new to look forward to--her own show. Fans...
Things are going to stay UnReal for Lifetime. The network has renewed its reality dating drama for a third season before the second season even debuted. The series, which stars Constance Zimmer...
In the case of Teresa Giudice it’s once again, No Money, Mo Problems! Hey – stars, they’re just like us! Teresa and Joe Giudice cannot get their finances together no matter how money they earn, how many professionals they hire, or how many months they spend in prison!
Last year Teresa and Joe were nailed with a $551,000 tax lien, and this year the State Of NJ is after them for owing another $250k in back taxes. People it is not that difficult. I mean: GET TURBOTAX! Or maybe the issue comes in the writing the checks portion of the exchange? Anyway… the Giudices are again in trouble for not paying the IRS.

In February the State Of NJ came after the Real Housewives Of New Jersey star for $23,365 in unpaid taxes – this was a mere two months after Teresa was released from serving her year in prison for financial fraud. Then, TMZ reports, that in April, despite Joe being “away,” the a lien was placed against him for $238,269 in unpaid taxes. Maybe they can seize his prison wages?
Teresa’s ever-present attorney James Leonard Jr. insists that Teresa and Joe hare handling their IRS biz the legal way. “We have worked out a re-payment schedule to ensure that every penny owed will be paid in full,” he tells Us Weekly. “This has been done for quite some time.” Teresa is also reportedly on time in repaying her previous IRS debt.
Perfect timing for Teresa who recently had her bankruptcy reopened as creditors fight for the right to seize any assets she wins from suing her bankruptcy attorney.
Honestly – Suze Orman needs to take over Teresa’s life. I am not kidding.

James Corden is finally getting his shot. Hamilton fans, your dreams are coming true on Monday, June 6, as The Late Late Show is officially gifting us with a Broadway-themed Carpool...James Kennedy and booze are a disaster! James + booze + Lala Kent = a super disaster (or a droopy peen – probably both!).
This weekend, James was in Vegas DJing a pool party at, of all places, Hard Rock Hotel’s Rehab, but on his return flight to L.A. a drunken and out of control James got into a huge screaming fight with Lala. Which led to the Vanderpump Rules star being ejected from the flight for being “too drunk.” Oh bother…

“He and LaLa were screaming at each other in the terminal. It looked like a classic drunken fight between friends…,” recounts a witness. “I’m pretty sure it was LaLa telling James to get it together before getting on the plane.”
James‘ current girlfriend, Raquel Leviss, was also with them, and right before the rowdy menage-a-trios was to board the plane, Lala was overheard yelling “I hate you!” to an irascible James. Obviously, this probably set James off, from slightly maniacal to full-scale ranting psycho.

“Right before they closed the doors, the airline worker said James couldn’t get on because he was too drunk,” the source tells ET. “LaLa got on the plane and Raquel stayed back at the airport with James.”
Well I wonder if James‘ magical Beamer was able to whisk him home. Or possibly to a real rehab? Despite the debacle, James tweeted that he’ll be at SUR DJing tonight.

Brandi Redmond may have mended fences with the perpetually “Doesn’t Do Hurt!” LeeAnne Locken. But that doesn’t mean she trusts her! So, she’s keeping her friends close and her carny tricks enemies closer, eh? In her blog this week, the Real Housewives of Dallas star advises Cary Deuber – LeeAnne’s latest target – to do the same.
But first, Brandi clarifies, “I want you all to know how much I love the Hollman’s and I always enjoy Travis’s National Holiday. When Stephanie [Hollman] called to tell me that she invited LeeAnne to Travis’s party, I truly didn’t care. It’s not my place to say whom someone can or cannot invite. I own that I’m a big girl and can control my emotions and behave at social gatherings.”

As for listing LeeAnne as “Loud Mouth” in her phone (heeeeeeee!), Brandi makes no apology. “She is ‘Loud Mouth’ in my phone and I like it that way. She can put ‘snot nosed little kid’ in her phone since that’s what she thinks about me. Anyways, I felt that our conversation went well. I apologized for the things that I felt needed an apology but I never heard an apology back for calling me ‘little piece of shit trash.’ Truly at that point, I was over it and knew I would need to move forward and be the bigger person especially having real issues going on in my life.”

Brandi takes a moment to pay homage to her best friend Stephanie’s successful birthday party for her grumpy troll of a husband, Travis. “Tiffany [Hendra] looked stunning in her costume and I apologize if I offended her by my humor. I hope she can take a joke, otherwise our bonding might be at a halt. Stephanie did an amazing job on the party and she should be proud. Everyone had a fantastic time and the fact that she then popped out of cake for Travis? Wow! She looked stunning and hot. Go Cinnamon…”
Glad she’s not involved in the Cary/LeeAnne drama, Brandi does have some words of wisdom for Cary about seeking an apology from LeeAnne. They amount to the following: Don’t hold your breath!
Brandi blogs, “Do I think that LeeAnne owes her an apology? Good luck with that, Cary! Watching LeeAnne previously gossip about Cary and the situations she was put in, I do think Cary deserves an apology and I don’t blame her for not trusting LeeAnne. LeeAnne is definitely someone I have my guard up with, too, when it comes to trust. However, at this point moving forward, I look forward to hearing LeeAnne’s story and look forward to our friendship.”
Well, at least Brandi is a realist when it comes to summing up LeeAnne Locken. Let’s see how that works out for her in her marriage though. Yikes!

Last night’s Real Housewives Of New York left me feeling like Dorinda Medley! I watch this show! It’s supposed to be fun! None of you can “betave!” (And yes – I was swinging a vodka bottle as I ranted at the TV – ironically the TV, which can’t hear me, provided the same non-reaction as the Housewives who were physically standing right in front of Dorinda!)
Also, I’m just gonna say it – I’m tired of Bethenny Frankel. This is not HER show. That spinoff was CANCELLED. Time for Bethenny to recognize where she stands; maybe Bravo gives her special snowflake treatment, but she’s rolling in the same muck as all the other harridans she pretends to be above, and her despot tyrannical behavior is just annoying.
CLICK THE CONTINUE READING BUTTON FOR MORE!
Bethenny clearly attended the Lisa Rinna school of ‘owning it’ where the first Rule of Owning It is to pretend that your behavior was moored in some sort of greater life lesson to be internalized at a later date. And the second Rule of Owning It is to pontificate incessantly about how your rudeness or insults were done for the greater good of humanity, and therefore it’s acceptable. The third Rule of Owning It is to seek validation and acceptance for your behavior from your friends, whilst you wallow in self-pity over being the brave warrior who threw themselves on the stiletto heel and it had to be done. It’s a hard life for a televised martyr of her own mind’s making. So that’s what happened last night during Dorinda’s Nightmare On Christmas Tree Shop slaughter party.
Of course in the midst of the middle-aged tantrums, Jules Wainstein was having a for-real crisis – her father was in the hospital, very ill, and about to undergo surgery. Why she was there is a mystery? Why she didn’t start stomping her feet all Housewifey and demand people pay attention to her before locking herself in a wallpapered closet to sob hysterically, is even more mysterious. Instead Jules, perfectionist and people- pleaser that she is, rallied, and even managed to bring board games for everyone to enjoy. Enjoy – ha! As if these biatches could enjoy anything! Jules – go home. You ain’t enjoying nothin’! Including, probably, Dorinda’s lasagna.
This weekend began on the fray, with Ramona Singer miffed that Luann de Lesseps schtupped her formal fling (and didn’t tell her), and everyone on edge over Sonja Morgan‘s antics. So the atmosphere is a lot like whatever is coming out of Ramona’s dog’s butt.
As soon as Bethenny arrives, any degree of pleasantry has gone asunder. Coco’s diarrhea is spreading and started coming out of Bethenny’s mouth. Her target is Luann, ex-Countess, reformed hypocrite, former covert slut now brazenly embracing her liberally dating Samantha Jones. Luann is also possessor of the original Countess Coiffe. Luann will not stop mentioning that Bethenny stole her hair, knowing that it rankles Bethenny, so she just drops the little comments everywhere like Coco’s dropping dingleberries. Eventually even Ramona is even forced to admit it’s true that Bethenny’s hair looks like Luann’s.
So things are off-kilter, and then walks Bethenny swinging the negative energy in her Skinnygirl tote bag.
Bethenny loves to shriek about the zero f–ks she gives, but she oughta Urban Dictionary that expression, because she’s misinterpreting it. When you are literally throwing a hysterical tantrum every 15 minutes you give ALL the f–ks. And then you ate all of Jules and Carole Radziwill‘s f–ks too – which explains why they both slinking around basically invisible. If Bethenny truly gave no f–ks, she wouldn’t be foaming pinot grigio on Dorinda’s carpet because Luann snarked at her over hair, or Skinnygirl stuff which Bethenny knows is not true. So why so defensive? (Don’t worry Bethenny will have 52,000 excuses!).
Bethenny wouldn’t be skulking around the house looking for a fight, then barging into the kitchen to confront Luann AGAIN as if Luann doesn’t have a right to VENT her frustrations – something Bethenny was just doing upstairs – that her so-called friend (acquaintance? co-worker) calling her a slutty whore and “plastic f–k doll.” Bethenny rationalizes her own behaviors to death, but the only thing she gives no f–ks about is relationships to others. Yes, Bethenny had some good points that Luann is a hypocrite who doesn’t bother to ‘get it’ – and she totally did owe Ramona a phone call over Tom, no bones about that!
Personally I LOVED how Luann mimicked Bethenny right to her face, drolly mocked her for screaming and raging, and then reminded Bethenny that since they aren’t friends – as Bethenny is so eager to point out – what exactly does Bethenny know about Luann’s life? So Bethenny’s arguments- based upon the words of Ramona and Sonja two women Bethenny regularly calls stupid liars, are laughable. This was good work from the countess – steady and unflappable in the face of Bethany’s insults. Maybe Luann doesn’t feel defensive over who she is?
Maybe the issue is that Bethenny has become a parody of herself, and basically a smarter version of Brandi Glanville – more caustic, slightly less unhinged with more social couth, and obviously MUCH more professionally successful. Yet Bethenny is that same unhappy, wounded, projecting woman who hides behind her “truth cannons” – like if I blow them up before they see me, I win by default! Bethenny loves to brag about the command she has over eviscerating people, smirking that “it won’t be pretty” when people try to come for her, but it’s a defense mechanism and a hollow boast. I think we all see Bethenny, but would prefer to look out the window at Dorinda’s gorgeous view than see her slut-shaming, threatening physical assault, lying, flinging spittle, and needing a rabies shot. Sit down, shut up, and do what Dorinda’s housekeeper suggested when she handed you that Easy Now tea. Too bad there’s no tea for SHUT THE F–K UP.
Meanwhile Sonja, erstwhile uninvited for being the elf who won’t stay off Bethenny’s shelf, is back in Manhattan getting Electroshock therapy on her crotch and having more fun. At least Sonja’s vag is all fresh and new as a daisy, whereas Luann’s is being dragged through Bethenny’s tunnel of self-loathing at the speed of 65MPH.
Yes, Luann was stupid and dumb to even bring up the Skinnygirl. We all know Luann isn’t trying to take credit for Bethenny’s business, but Bethenny is so defensive. She threatens to grab Luann by the neck and drag her out back (to rip off the hair Bethenny claims Luann SWF’d from her. UHHH), and then get all riled up on RAMONA’s behalf that Luann is dating Tom. Ramona says she and Tom went on 6 dates, Luann claims she had no idea, but then admits she did know Tom dated Ramona – she thought it was one date. Still, Girl Code – call your girl!
According to lore – BETHENNY’S friend (Bethenny has those?) was in a bar and overheard Luann telling Tom that she was next in line after Ramona or something to that effect, and this helps form the basis of Bethenny’s assault that Luann is a phony hypocritical whorebag slut whose Lady Lu has a sign that reads “Open For Business – Come One, Come All”. Bethenny is even afraid to tell Luann who she’s dating because Luann will rush right over there and steal him. Therefore Bethenny’s vagina needs to enter the witness protection program – or is that Bethenny’s man? Which must explain why he’s invisible, right?!
Bethenny must be sampling a lot of Tipsy Girl and the delusion is infused in the bubbles, because she keeps whining that Luann won’t let her speak or get a word din edgewise. Oh girl… all you do is speak and speak and speak and speak – LOUDLY. ALL THE TIME.
As Bethenny is storming out, over her hopefully trademarked and patented countess haired shoulder, Luann snaps that she should have stayed in the city with Sonja who is “more decent and humble and lovely” than Bethenny will ever be. This provokes a whole new eruption of Bethenny’s wrath because apparently Luann is now to blame for Sonja’s drinking and dating dilemmas. “I’m sick of the way that you live,” seethes Bethenny. Luann, and the rest of us, surely wonder why Bethenny CARES how Luann lives?
Then Carole arrives, and assumed the male voice she heard was John, not “LuMANN” – oh how clever. (sarcasm). I love how Bethenny and Carole insist they’re so supportive of women, yet they are the fist ones to slut-shame, appearance-shame, and any other kinds of shaming available. Someone get these two in Women’s Studies 101 at NYU! Good lord Taylor Swift is more pro-women than these two! Kim Kardashian‘s sex tape is more feminist than Carole and Bethenny’s abounding delusion. But it is ‘OK ’cause Luann called Carole a pedophile – supposedly – during Kristen’s Denim and Diamond’s party last season, and has only apologized like 3 or 4 times. Never sincerely.
Carole scurries around complaining to Dorinda that she didn’t know Luann was coming – LIE – because she wouldn’t have come. And Carole blames LUANN for screaming at everyone and making everyone uncomfortable. Dorinda blankly asks Carole if she wants to stay in a hotel.
After Bethenny screams that Luann f–ks married men, and 25-year-olds she steals from her friends, and Luann smirks that Bethenny should watch that face – yes, that face – the GUARANTEED TO BE SINGLE FOR LIFE face, Bethenny storms out (again) so Luann whines to Jules. Who is trying to call her AILING FATHER. Luann is all ‘But… But… she called me a slut! I can’t stay here! Oh your dad is sick – whatevs – Bethenny called me a WHORE!’ Yeah, Luann – you’re not self-obsessed as Bethenny oh-so hypocritically mentioned. Dorinda claims she didn’t hear the argument, which must mean Dorinda needs a hearing check, right?!
Now listen I thought Luann not only held her own but really handed it to Bethenny by illustrating how unhinged Bethenny was, but then Luann proceeded to wander around the house awkwardly poking her head into rooms where the women were clustered like a dog waiting to be invited onto the bed. And clearly no one wanted her there. Finally Ramona resorted to joining Lu in the kitchen to let her decompress. Luann is pissed that she traveled all the way to the Berkshires believing it was Dorinda’s birthday, and she doesn’t understand why there’s a birthday cake made by Dorinda’s very-own mother when it’s not in fact Dorinda’s birthday.
At that moment the other women wander downstairs when Dorinda over-hears Luann talking about the cake she blows-up about how Luann is talking about her mother, and none of these women are appreciative of Dorinda’s efforts. Which was true. “I cooked! I decorated! I invited you all here! And if you can’t betave you can all just GO HOME!” rails Dorinda, on the verge of a nervous breakdown. Ramona and Carole swoop in to try and comfort her but Luann keeps sidling up reminding Dorinda that Bethenny called her a slut – TIME AND PLACE CLASS WITH THE COUNTESS – TIME AND PLACE! – until Ramona tells Luann to knock it off and stop.
Jules wonders if anyone wants to open presents or play a game. Not having a nanny is really bringing out Jules’ inner helicopter mommy!
After her explosion Bethenny can’t get comfortable. Bethenny is more unsettled that Luann is acting like nothing happened. She claims she feels bad (she doesn’t) and that she actually likes Luann, but she had been bottling up all these thoughts and had to get them out, but being the bearer of bad news doesn’t make Bethenny happy (it does). Instead of Ramona telling Bethenny to have a Xanax and CALLLM DOWN!, she offers herbal tea. Which is just so not the Ramona I know and love. A Ramona without her Sonja is the truth hypocrite. The women are torn between wanting to comfort Bethenny, their coven leader, and feeling obligated to comfort Luann. Except Carole – she has other agendas, continuing to complain that Luann called her a pedophile and even worse that Luann had the audacity to invite her to her holiday party, without so much as an apology.
And then everyone decides they need a nap.
For all the years of ‘therapy’ Bethenny has slavishly whored out on TV, she’s shown almost zero emotional growth – despite living through friendships failing, business mega-success and accompanying wealth, her father’s death, marriage, baby, divorce, custody battle, and professional flops, she’s right back where she started on RHONY, but emotionally it’s as if she never left. That’s what disappoints me. Even Ramona has learned some subtle degree of emotional intelligence. Like when she convinces Luann to apologize in an attempt to salvage the weekend.
Even though Ramona thinks these apologies will be sufficient (because this is Ramona we’re talking about!), and they’re so not, because they never will be (because it’s Luann, and we’re dealing with Bethenny and Carole here), Ramona recognized that as a friend to Luann, she should encourage her to be the bigger person and at least try. “You’re the countess,” Ramona purred, stroking Luann’s ego. Ramona was really proud that she taught Luann the ways of the Pinot Pology and is shocked that it doesn’t work.
Carole and Jules hide in Dorinda’s wallpapered coat closet (the sign of real wealth! haha), trying to eavesdrop because Carole is desperate to catch Luann talking shit about her behind-her-back. Which didn’t happen. Bethenny and Carole are summarily disgusted by Luann’s insincere apologies, because she doesn’t get it. I kinda think Luann does get it, with perennially akimbo flippancy (and matching hair flip): she wants to have fun, she doesn’t really care that much about these women, and she doesn’t subscribe to their opinions about her, so she’s only trying to make it right for the good of the group and her job. Although Luann is clearly upset about being targeted and excluded, and worried about becoming the “New Sonja“ so she has to grovel a bit.
While Bethenny is upstairs getting more ego-stroking and telling Jules and Carole that she’s allergic to fish – especially lady fish – Luann is in the kitchen expressing her frustrations that Bethenny seems to be on a vendetta to target others. Of course Bethenny barges into the kitchen and immediately starts with Luann again.
Oh Bethenny, give it a rest! If I were Dorinda I would have taken my cake and run to a hotel – ALONE.
TELL US – WHO WAS DORINDA’S WORST BEHAVED GUEST? IS RAMONA BEING A GOOD FRIEND TO LUANN OR UP TO NO GOOD?

The post Real Housewives Of New York Recap: It’s Not Your Party So Be Rude If You Want To! appeared first on Reality Tea.
Bethenny Frankel and Luann de Lesseps had it all out on The Real Housewives of New York City. Well, maybe not all of it. Dorinda Medley's Christmas slumber party took a disastrous turn when...Real, official Big Brother 18 spoilers are starting to roll out at at last! We have the very first sneak peek into the newly remodelled Big Brother 18 house, and we are LOVING it. Honestly, some years we are not so fond of the crazy themes and wild decorations the producers throw in there, but this season the Big Brother house really does look awesome across the board.
The first Big Brother 18 house tour photos were revealed by Entertainment Tonight host Kevin Frazier, posted on social media after checking out the house with host Julie Chen. The video tour isn’t out yet, but we’ll post it as soon as we can get our hands on it. Meanwhile, we are drooling over these awesome sneak peek photos and can’t wait to see more!

The Big Brother 18 house theme seems to be a “Travel Around the World” vibe, with each room decorated to represent a different country. We can’t help but wonder if this might be giving us some kind of hint about a special Big Brother 18 cast lineup this season, or possibly a nod to whatever major Big Brother 18 twist we can look forward to.
In one of his posts about the house tour, Frazier said “there are a few interesting surprises” in store for Big Brother fans. Should be interesting to find out exactly what he means by that!
We do know already, according to BigBrotherNetwork.com, that the backyard and pool area have been overhauled. You can check out a glimpse of the area in one of the pics above. Plus, you can see from one of the photos above that the front door is now a double-wide, which is an interesting new change. We’re hope there will be even more new and interesting goodies uncovered when the Big Brother 18 house tour video is released!
