Paris Jackson is heading to TV. The daughter of the late King of Pop, Michael Jackson, will make her acting debut on Fox's Star later this season. This is Jackson's first...Now that Lala Kent isn’t around to be the resident target, Kristen Doute takes aim at former boyfriend/door-spitter James Kennedy this week. On tonight’s episode of Vanderpump Rules, Kristen rounds up two of James’ rumored flings, Ellie and GG, to crash his big DJ gig and expose him for the cheater she hears he is.
Kristen and the crew sit back and watch the drama unfold as they confront James’ girlfriend, Raquel Leviss, telling her she’s delusional to think he’s loyal. Obviously things do not go well much to Kristen’s glee. Tom Sandoval looks on in horror, knowing what kind of crazy is about to be unleashed.
Also tonight, Jax Taylor and Brittany Cartwright say so long to Brittany’s mom, much to Jax’s relief. He can’t wait to take his pants off and make some hot wings and watch sports – from the toilet, with the door open wide. Pray to the Bravo Gods that this particular scene doesn’t make the final edit.
Meanwhile, Tom Schwartz attempts to smooth things over between Ariana Madix and Stassi Schroeder, but Katie Maloney isn’t amused when Ariana refuses to comply and be nice.
Lisa Vanderpump dishes out some wedding advice to Katie and Tom. Also, Tom realizes he doesn’t actually have much to put under the protection of the prenup he was so hot to get.
Tune in and dissect the episode with us here in the comments. The show kicks off at 9/8CST.
TELL US – WHO IS LYING? JAMES OR THE TWO ACCUSERS? SHOULD KRISTEN BUTT OUT OF HIS RELATIONSHIP? SHOULD ARIANA MAKE NICE WITH STASSI?

Teen Mom 2 stars Jenelle Evans and Chelsea Houska gave birth one day apart last week. Jenelle and boyfriend David Eason welcomed their daughter, Ensley Jolie, on Tuesday, then Chelsea and husband Cole DeBoer welcomed their son, Watson Cole, on Wednesday.
Many assumed Jenelle was pissed that Chelsea stole her thunder, especially considering the meltdown she had when Teen Mom fans celebrated Chelsea’s pregnancy shortly after they harassed Jenelle for lying about her pregnancy and judged Jenelle for getting pregnant again when she does not have custody of her first son, Jace, yet. She insists not, tweeting, “I am actually happy for her and glad she got the little boy she always wanted.”

Jenelle added, “I really do not understand why everyone would think we would be mad at each other for having our babies born so close. LMAO.”
Well, in my opinion, nothing says “Jenelle is bothered” more than a “LMAO” or a “DUDE!”
I’m sure it didn’t help that neither Kail Lowry nor Leah Messer congratulated, or even acknowledged, Jenelle after Ensley’s birth, but both acknowledged Watson’s arrival. Leah retweeted Chelsea‘s announcement, and Kail tweeted, “So happy for @ChelseaHouska and her family! Cannot wait to hold baby boy!”

Look below for more pictures of baby Cole and baby Ensley.
Tonight on Teen Mom 2, Jenelle tries to keep her pregnancy a secret, Cole and Chelsea consider postponing their wedding, and Kailyn continues to fight with Javi. There’s no blurb listed for Leah, but I’m sure she will whine and complain about something, with iPhone in hand and rat’s nest on head. Leah’s nothing if not consistent.

It’s Day 26 on Celebrity Big Brother, and we’re promised housemates in the dock. This should be good, but dish out the ear plugs now.
Yet again, Jedward are subject of conversation in the house. And the garden. And pretty much everywhere. Well, not in the store room, where Kim has been staring at the washing machine for five minutes. I was wrong about the label on the tumble dryer; clearly, it is needed. Jedward are in the garden, with John pretending to be a gymnast representing Ireland in the Olympic Games. One’s commentating and ones dancing. I re-iterate once more, these boys are 25.
CLICK CONTINUE READING FOR MORE!
So this weekend is Final Judgement weekend and Big Brother has some tricks up his little sleeve. The housemates are all on trial, with the crime of ‘Failure to Deliver’ being the charge to them all. Judge is former housemate Vanessa Feltz, and for witnesses, we have Austin Armacost, Luisa Zuissman, Saira Khan, and John McCririck.
First up is Bianca, who had said she wasn’t a wallflower when she was entering the house. Judge Feltz wants to know what happened. Saira is called as first witness who says Bianca is a lovely housemate, but has let herself down, having a boyfriend on the outside. Luisa interrupts, saying that Bianca and Jamie should have banked the romance until the outside, and that Bianca’s behavior hasn’t done her any favors. She’s not wrong.
Next Nicola takes the stand. Luisa is called, saying that Nicola is too confrontational, coming across as paranoid and horrible, especially to Jedward. Of course they’re thrilled. Nicola admits it, saying that’s not her intention, but she’s aware of how it looks. John asks why she can’t stop swearing. Nicola asks why he can’t stop being a pr*ck. Good point, well made.
Then we have Jedward on the stand, with the statement that John made saying there was “zero out of ten chance” of them starting an argument. He justifies himself by explaining he calls Nicola the ‘Blair Witch’ and that she has manipulated the others. He pulls the “bullies” word, which Judge Feltz jumps on straight away saying that no one is being accused of bullying anyone. They start to argue, and she tells them to be quiet.
Austin is called as witness, and Jedward starts on him, too. They are given a final warning to be quiet. Austin points out it’s their behavior that causes the arguments and aggression, and the fact that no one else likes them speaks wonders. Jedward are defensive again and start getting louder. Jamie calmly say that they have segregated themselves and it causes issues. Jedward won’t listen and say it’s the other way round. Nothing is resolved.
James C is called next. Saira praises him and his character but says that he disengages and no one really knows him. James C apologizes and points out the differences between the house and the real world. I think it’s actually just his age and generation that dictates his behavior rather than anything else.
Kim takes the stand. Judge Feltz reminds Kim that she said she would only ever cause an argument if provoked. Kim is unrepentant, and Luisa points out there’s a difference between standing up for herself and starting for no reason. Luisa points out how ridiculous she looked being escorted out by security, spilling drinks and staggering, and now, is quiet as a mouse. Saira points out she comes across as nasty. Vanessa says that did she think that if she had come in quietly she would still be in the house, hence why the arguments at the beginning. Kim denies it, but it’s clear that’s a common thought amongst all.
Jamie is called to the dock next, to be questioned by John McCririck, who says that “showmance” is the word of the moment, and is he trying to get the viewers votes with that. Jamie denies it, and some very half-hearted arguments are given.He gets off lightly.
Calum is brought up next, and accused of not opening up, as he had promised he would. Saira tells him that the relationship Calum showed with his mum was amazing to see and the making of him, but that since she has gone, he has turned boring.
Before he leaves the dock, Calum is reminded that before he entered the house he was asked if he’d ever betrayed a friend and he said no. A clip is then shown where Calum is telling Nicola he believe the Jamie and Bianca thing to be a showmance. Bianca and Jamie are not impressed, and Calum is shaken but trying to be cool. You know this one will come back and bite him on his backside later.
Coleen goes last. John takes the witness stand and talks about her being at the difficult time of life as a woman (he has the moral character that belongs with Jedward). Nicola calls him vile for what he has just said and tells Coleen thank you for being such a good housemate. Coleen doesn’t actually have to defend herself and is allowed from the dock.
The task is finished and Nicola is in the diary room saying that she is going home, as she is always made out to be the bad person and that she’s had enough. James C suggests to Jedward that it may be worth them speaking to Nicola to put it to rest. John says that with all his life experience with girls, he can weigh up a situation, yar di yar di yar. What the actual heck? Someone needs a word with him. Preferably his mother. If that was my child, well, it never would be because mine already has far more respect than this pair, at half the age.
Jamie and Bianca are fuming at Calum. Calum walks up and asks them if they want to talk about it. Fair play to him, for facing them both and apologizing straight away. Jamie and Bianca back down but you know it’s not at rest. Jamie is bringing up the boyfriend card again, which is slightly unfair, seeing as he’d already said it was fine.
Jamie and Kim are buttering each other up and saying how well they did today. Jedward are telling Jedward how brave Jedward are. They cannot leave the house soon enough. Although Bianca and Jamie are annoying me just as much. Neither seem genuine in their own rights.
Later in the evening, Jedward are having a momentously lengthy conversation about John popping a spot. Careful, your head might explode. Kim is in the diary room saying how irrational Nicola is and how easily she flies off the handle. Is this bird for real? Maybe it’s a celebrity thing, where you lose all appreciation of your own behavior. Her and Jedward are well matched.
We finish the show with a pool jumping from Jedward, a water fight with the other housemates, and a smooching session with Jamie and Bianca. It’s as if there were cameras everywhere, waiting for a story line.

Andrea Canning took the reigns once again for the final installment of this season’s Sister Wives Tell All. As one would expect, there was a lot of focus on Meri and Kody Brown’s flailing relationship as well as Mariah’s recent announcement. To be fair, it was one of the more honest tell alls from this crew, but is that really saying much? As always, the older Brown children (and Christine’s newfound euphoria) made the rest of the gang much more bearable.
Kody and Meri discuss the pitfalls in their relationship and how Meri had told Kody to quit coming around her house. However, she still wanted him to be available to help her with household chores (that wet bar isn’t going to stock itself!) and engage in small talk. Andrea questions whether Meri banished Kody with the hopes that he would fight for her, but Kody counters that for months she would tell Kody to leave when he’d come around. Andrea attempts to remind them both of why they fell in love in the first place. Meri found Kody to be handsome (of course, those locks!) and dynamic, and he loved how she looked at him with respect and adoration. Christine reminds Andrea that Kody’s main focus is the family, and sometimes it is hard for the wives when they desire their husband’s undivided attention.

Meri and Kody admit that there have been issues in their marriage for close to a decade. When pressed as to how Kody would feel if Meri left, he says it would shatter the family…and his ego more than hurting him. Kody wishes they hadn’t filmed their issues for the world to judge. Meri recalls a time when Kody told her he wouldn’t rescue her from a burning bridge. However, now they are attempting (kinda, sorta) to work on their marriage, but Kody still isn’t at a place where he feels comfortable answering that question.
Meri is clearly crushed, Andrea gawks, and Robyn practically beats him over the head. Yes! Kody would save Meri from a burning bridge. Janelle concurs. He’s a good man. He’d save anyone. Why is it so hard to answer a question to which they all know the answer! Kody argues it’s too complex, but he concedes he’s a great fireman, so yeah, he’d probably make sure Meri made it safely off the bridge of fire. Sheesh. That was a lot, but I love seeing the women sticking up for one another.
We are reminded of Mariah’s conversation with her father where she expressed extreme anger and frustration about her mother’s catfishing fiasco. Kody admits he went into the discussion to defend Meri, but he left feeling that Mariah was swaying him to be upset with Meri. Janelle and the other women admit they felt the ripple effect of Meri and Kody’s negativity. While they were not privy to the depths of despair between Kody and Meri, they could tell something was very, very wrong with the pair. Christine credits Kody for going to see Mariah, citing he is always a parent first with his kids. Kody remains silent and pensive.
The topic turns to Mariah‘s announcement that she is gay. Kody eloquently (I promise I’m not drunk!) asserts that he doesn’t believe homosexuality is a choice or a bane against their religion, and he loves his children unconditionally and wants them to always feel safe. Robyn seconds his assertions about how proud she is of Mariah for finding her truth.
Andrea wonders what the Browns’ religion says about homosexuality, and Robyn is adamant that they don’t necessarily agree with what their religion teaches about homosexuality. Christine interrupts to say they try to lead with love. Meri reveals she felt like a bad mother for not seeing any signs that would clue her in to Mariah‘s sexuality. Further, she’s still reconciling the fairy tale she’d created for Mariah in her head with a prince charming and a house full of babies. Meri recognizes that Mariah can still have these things…just with a wife. She’s working on it.
Mariah’s relationship with her mother and her identity epiphany warrants Meri’s only child her own one-on-one with Andrea. Mariah tells Andrea that the appreciated the support of her other moms, and she is finally realizing that Meri’s catfishing wasn’t purposefully done to hurt her. While she doesn’t condone her mother’s actions, she felt she took it more personally than she should have.
Reflecting on her announcement, Mariah clarifies that she knew her parents were not going take issue with her news. Her parents never instilled in her that being gay was wrong, but she encountered it from other people in her church. When asked why she waited so long to come out to her family, Mariah explains that she was struggling to accept herself. She admits that she was always vocal about wanting sister wives in her own marriage to cover the feelings she was having. She laughs about going from wanting one unconventional marriage to another. I’m not the biggest Mariah fan, but she certainly seems a great deal happier and at peace than she has in past seasons.
The rest of the older Brown siblings join Mariah on the couches, and she and Logan joke about how she came out to him via a text message. He says he teared up because he was so excited for her. Garrison learned the news on his way to Maddie and Caleb’s wedding, and he seconds Logan’s assertion. Aspyn suspected the news and teased her sister about having a girlfriend, and Caleb and Maddie predicted the announcement three months prior to learning Mariah’s news. Andrea presses Maddie and Caleb about married life, and Madison gleefully shares that the couple is expecting their first child. While they were nervous at first, the family is over the moon about the first Brown grandchild. I’d take a Brown kids spin-off for sure!
Kody wants to clarify the burning bridge comment. It was a long time ago. The bridge isn’t burning. They can still cross the bridge to get to each other. When asked if everyone is past the catfishing incident, Meri is the first to answer that she is over it. The others concur, but hesitantly. They don’t think about it anymore, but it was certainly humiliating.
To finish up the tell-all, the Browns address some tabloid rumors. Guess what? Kody‘s not in debt to the tune of six figures. Robyn is not getting a spin-off, but if she did, she jokes she’d call it Sobbin’ Robyn. Who knew Robyn had a sense of humor? Andrea wants to know if he’s taking Robyn’s niece as his fifth wife. He finds the rumor offensive, and Robyn interjects that Kody isn’t Mindy’s type anyway. Kody and the family have no plans for a fifth wife, but Christine wishes Kody would just tell the world he’d rather focus his love and attention on his four beautiful wives. Kody counters that this isn’t a scripted show. Kody’s got jokes! The crew is thrilled about the first grand baby. Christine has clearly been passing out her happy pills!

It’s all good in Dorit Kemsley’s world this week. The Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills star is riding the mild current of minimal drama (temporarily, to be sure) as she recounts the fun she had rollerblading with Lisa Rinna and Eileen Davidson – not to mention good pal Boy George coming to the rescue at hubby PK Kemsley’s birthday party. But the best thing about Dorit’s blog? She makes absolutely NO mention of Kim Richards’ SOBRIETY! From me to you, Dorit: Thank you.
“What a great week!” exclaims Dorit. “My afternoon with Eileen and Lisa R was so much fun and just what we needed, something uplifting and a great way to bond! We were all in a playful mood. Being from the East Coast, roller blading wasn’t anything I’d ever tried before, but we had a lot of laughs.” Um, rollerblading exists in Connecticut, right? Thought so.

As for smoothie night, Dorit conveniently glosses over her suspicions about Lisa R’s bag o’ pills, idle gossip she all too eagerly shared with Lisa Vanderpump after the fact. “It was also nice to hang out with Eden [Sassoon] and Lisa R and to plan a calm evening with smoothies! I’ve been wanting to get to know Eden more and haven’t really had a chance since the game night when we met. Lisa R is so funny with her bag of vitamins. I’ve never seen anyone this prepared. If I have a headache, I’ll be going to her first!”
Moving on to PK’s party, Dorit admits she was nervous, but “after the most beautiful birthday he threw for me, I really wanted this to be something special and memorable with the perfect atmosphere, delicious food and a fun surprise for the guests. Thank you, Boy George and Culture Club, for that truly memorable live performance!”
Indeed, Boy George has been a welcome addition to RHOBH this season, and should hereby be dubbed an official Housewife! (I would pay good money to see some talking heads from him. Well, marginally good money!)
“I know PK means a lot to George,” blogs Dorit, “and they have a wonderful relationship, but it was so special for us that George and Culture Club agreed to do this intimate show for us at our home. We’ll never forget it. Everyone was loving the music and having so much fun, and I loved being home and having Jagger and Phoenix join in the fun! Jagger loves an opportunity to dance! Just like his mommy.”
It appears as though Dorit thinks she dodged a bullet in sharing Lisa R’s pills story with Lisa V – and, perhaps, she might have. For now. But knowing these women, this respite from the drama won’t last long!

"Two women. One rose. One stays, one goes." It's the most wonderful time of the season, Bachelor Nation. No, we're not talking about the not the romantic proposal at the...So many confusing things about last night’s Real Housewives Of Atlanta. Like does Kenya Moore truly not see that she constantly provokes Porsha Williams? And is guilty of most of the same things she accuses Porsha of doing? Like does Sheree Whitfield realize that her messiness is as see through as Marlo Hampton‘s entire wardrobe? And also what is with Cynthia Bailey telling Matt Jordan that his issues with Kenya aren’t that big of a deal?! Cynthia, little tip – psychology 101 at the local community college, please!
It doesn’t matter that the very thought of latrines and paper plates nearly drove everyone to blows over dinner, Phaedra Parks has decided “roughing it” on a glamping trip is just what the group needs to work through their issues. And if not, she’ll put them on toilet digging duty or have them get lost in the woods. Unfortunately, Porsha has been avoiding Phaedra since dinner, over her possible allegiance to Kenya. So, Phaedra decides the thing to do is meet Kenya on mutual territory to discuss how an anger management conversation got so, well, angry.
Personally, I think it’s time for the return of Dr. Jeff, cause all these girls need some anger management! Group rate?
CLICK THE CONTINUE READING BUTTON FOR MORE!
I love the Parent Trap and Troop Beverly Hills as much as the next girl, but Phaedra is not living in either one of those realities. Instead, she is living on Real Housewives Of Atlanta, where people think it is their reasonable right to interrogate others over dinner about the effectiveness of their mental health therapy, then chase them down the street screaming when when they aren’t given the answer they want to hear. Because the best way to fight crazy is with… crazy?
Now I don’t know what’s up with Frick and Frack, but they don’t need the addition of Kenya, whose intent is surely to crack this friendship. Regardless of Porsha’s warning about ‘fake friends,’ Phaedra meets Kenya in a camping store to discuss why dinner turned into the ladies acting like “urban street fighters.” Dodging Kenya’s delusion, “matrix-style,” Phaedra is still on summer camp mode as she lectures Kenya on manners in public and while trying to solve disagreements. Like basically don’t chase somebody down the street.
Meanwhile, Porsha plays her second-ever visit to her Anger Management counselor. She bemoans that Phaedra did not come to her defense, and even worse, Kandi Burruss is starting stuff with her out of nowhere and “piggybacking” onto problems she’s having with other women. Because of this, Porsha only wants to go on the glamping trip if she has a support system. Her enabling doctor classifies what happened over that fateful dinner as “sounds like bullying” and then encourages Porsha to attend the trip to practice what she’s learned.
Proving that not-so-great minds think alike, Cynthia meets Matt for a chat about his latest Moore Manor incident, and they are both wearing the same hat. Oh how fun. Twinning!
First of all, why is Kenya, a woman in her 40’s, sending her friend to talk to her boyfriend? And even worse: Cynthia TAKES NOTES on the conversation like this is some sort of diplomatic summit for middle schoolers. Instead of breaking windows at Moore Manor to get Kenya’s attention, Matt ought to grab a boombox and stand outside her window blasting love songs. Although that driveway is so treacherous he’d probably fall into the ravine never to be heard from again. #ThingsThatGoBumpInTheNight
I just have no words for this idiotic conversation between Cynthia and Matt. Cynthia encouraging Matt to ‘work through’ his issues with Kenya was totally foolish! Cynthia feels their issues can be boiled down to Kenya being a “drama queen” and Matt being a “drama king” and two dramas make a big ol’ mess. I don’t know what was in that notebook, but I can only imagine it was a draft for a “boyfriend contract.”
RELATED – Kenya Says She’s A Rich Bitch!
When Kenya visits Cynthia at Lake Bailey for the full report, Cynthia pulls out her notebook and remembers she told Matt that Kenya is “definitely” a drama queen. When Kenya presses for clarification, Cynthia sighs, “You’re… Kenya Moore,” as if that explains everything. And really it does.
Kenya certainly proved Cynthia’s point by going off on a twirling rant about how Cynthia never takes her side and is flaky. Um… uhhhhh… yeah. Duh. And Kenya’s spirit animal being Krayonce, explains why she had her friend even talking to her “estranged boyfriend,” as Bravo is now titling Matt. Speaking of, that is just about the saddest thing I have ever seen on this show. Like, Kenya, you are spending your entire RHOA paycheck replacing the same damn garage window – time to let this man go, Kenya! You don’t need Cynthia to sit him down in a public park to figure out this relationship is going nowhere!
Cynthia tries to explain to Kenya, but she just starts running away and Cynthia is reduced to chasing her. Well Kenya certainly got a taste of her own medicine – last week she was trailing Porsha demanding she stay and talk things out; this time she’s begging Cynthia to leave her alone as she runs away with Cynthia hot on her stallion booty.
Shamea Morton is getting married and, even though Porsha is Shamea’s BFF of ten years, Kandi is the one throwing Shamea’s engagement party. It’s supposed to be a “white party” (does Bravo get a percentage every time someone throws a ‘white party?), but none of the Housewives got the memo. Maybe Johnnie, Kandi’s former party planner, sabotaged?
Sheree‘s new +1, Marlo, is in tow, and these two together can only mean trouble. The bad kind of trouble you sense from a mile away, from the top of the Moore Manor driveway. Despite their issues, Kandi did invite Porsha, but Porsha skipped the party. When Shamea realizes Porsha isn’t there she actually starts crying.
That’s when Sheree decides is the perfect time to mention that Porsha didn’t defend Shamea when Phaedra accused her of f–king every married man in Atlanta. Even though Porsha defended Phaedra against Shamea’s comments. A furious Shamea reveals that Phaedra is known as the “head queen,” and vows to “hit Porsha up” (over champagne) for an explanation.
Over at Shamea’s house, Porsha is looking worn out and rough, with a crusty askew part, and she doesn’t have much to say for herself about being a bad friend. Pulling a Bill Clinton, she “can’t recall” a lot of things. Like where was she when Phaedra made her comments, or where was she when Shamea was having her engagement party. Porsha whines that she didn’t want the party to become all about her drama with Kandi, but as Shamea pointed out, it did anyway when she didn’t show up.
Echoing Porsha’s warning to Phaedra about Kenya, Shamea warns Porsha not to trust Phaedra, who’s a “fake friend.” This is sad – this seems like a real friendship and it’s now going down the Bravo drain.
I wouldn’t want to get on a bus and head out into the woods with any of these women, but duty calls. Duty also called Marlo and Kandi’s new friend Hazel. Who?! Yes, exactly.
Duty also apparently sent out pre-glamping party invites to both Sheree and Kenya’s unfinished homes, except we only got to experience Southern Hospitality at Kenya’s. Chateau Sheree cannot be entered.
While Kenya welcomes the ladies INSIDE with fresh flowers and more croissants than a continental buffet, Sheree has a plastic folding table outside like a little league concession stand. I’ve seen bake sales with more class than Miss I like Things Elegant and Sophisticated’s display. It was mini muffins straight from the supermarket cellophane.
At least Cynthia and Kenya are able to work out their disagreement over Matt before the trip. The same can’t be said about Phaedra and Porsha. Phaedra still has no idea if Porsha is even coming since they haven’t spoken.
Predictably only the so-called “rejects’ join Sheree at her porch side party. Marlo arrives and they’re reduced to sitting in her car with the AC running since it’s so hot. Without warning, out of nowhere, leaps Porsha with her sister Lauren, and surprise! She’s coming glamping!
After her conversation with Shamea, Porsha is upset with Sheree’s “messiness.” She pulls her to one side of the porch for a talk. Porsha complains that Sheree’s messiness has gotten her in the middle of situations with two friends. That’s when she realizes Phaedra isn’t at Sheree’s because she’s over in enemy territory with her new friend Krack. Hey – better muffins and AC, I know where I’m waiting for my ride!
When Kandi arrives at Kenya’s with Hazel, Phaedra reveals that the plan is to spend the first night actually ‘roughing it’ in the woods and then, as a reward, they’ll be glamping the other nights. As a prequel to what’s to come, they’re forced to haul all their luggage to the top of Kenya’s driveway because it’s too steep and narrow for the bus to fit. After waiting and waiting in the hot sun, amid the shadows of the vacant Chateau Sheree, a restless Porsha decides they need to investigate if Phaedra has defected to the nearby enemy lair. As they wander down the wooded road, in what has all the makings of Friday The 13th, they spot the ghoulish bus lingering beside Kenya’s driveway.
Everyone was expecting Porsha to skip the trip, there were few joyful faces when she popped onto the bus unexpectedly! Even worse, because she brought Lauren. Porsha produces a “doctor’s note” to prove her ‘support’ was recommended by her therapist. See I don’t get why this is a problem? No one said boo about Marlo or Hazel’s presence? So it’s only Bring A Friend To Work Day if your name isn’t Porsha?
RELATED – NeNe Calls Phaedra & Porsha Fake Friends!
Instead Kenya and Kandi – again – start arguing with Porsha about her so-called “mental issues.” There’s a whole list of words Porsha is not allowed to use to describe her feelings: “attack,” “condescending” (which according to Kandi is “such bullshit”), or “made fun of”… Kenya dismisses Porsha’s reasons for being defensive and evasive over dinner, as more of her blaming other people for her bad behavior.
Porsha offers the checkmate, though, when she declares that in all her anger management experience she recognizes that Kenya also has that anger inside. After Kandi and Kenya got on Porsha for “being defensive” for merely asking questions about her therapy, Kenya saltily snaps that Porsha should worry about herself, not Kenya.
This, from the woman who is so preoccupied with everything Porsha is doing, she’s chasing her down the street? Sounds like Kenya needs to take her own damn advice!
