And then there were two. We have reached the final round of TV's Top Couple 2018, and it's one hell of a match-up. First up, we have Olicity. Arrow's Oliver...
Thanks (in large part) to LeeAnne Locken, Real Housewives of Dallas Season 2 majorly delivered. Pretty much nobody wanted the show to come back after a lackluster Season 1 centered around poop hats, charity squabbles, and Dallas society chatter, but LeeAnne the entire cast really stepped it up for round 2 and now the fans want more. Even so, there is no official word that the show will be back for Season 3.
It should return for another season, but as of now it’s up in the air. In the mean time, LeeAnne is sharing her thoughts on the show’s future, which cast members should return, and her other projects.
In a Facebook Live interview with The Dallas Morning News, LeeAnne shared her viewpoint on the Real Housewives of Dallas viewers. She said, “I prefer to call them ‘friends.’ I don’t want fans, I want friends.” Thank God for the fans since half of the RHOD cast refuses to be friends with her even though she is Real Housewives of Dallas.
Just to warn you, LeeAnne fell into that Housewives cliche of referring to herself in the third person for a portion of this interview. In her defense, the question was phrased in an odd way: “Everyone wants to know, LeeAnne Locken, will there be a Season 3?” Yes, that phrasing didn’t ask for the use of the third person, but LeeAnne did say, “LeeAnne Locken wants to know, will there be a Season 3? If LeeAnne Locken knew she probably still couldn’t say because that big, bad Bravo company has good lawyers. So let’s hope.” I’m crossing my fingers over here. LeeAnne declared, “It’s a definite maybe.” Ugh.
In other news, LeeAnne shared, “I am in the process of taking my YouTube and my inspiration page and converting them into LeeAnne TV. It’s going to be all real talk with LeeAnne Locken and I’m just going to keep it 100. All day, every day, keeping it 100.”
Jumping back to the show, LeeAnne was asked, “If there was a Season 3, are there any cast mates that you would like to see gone?” Even though LeeAnne has issues with three out of the five other cast members, she actually said, “No. I’m not that person.”
LeeAnne explained, “Honestly, I’m not intimidated or afraid to film with anyone because my philosophy is, whatever you choose to bring me, you deserve any reaction you get. If you’re going to bring anger and accusations at me, be prepared. I think the world knows who I am by now. I’m always going to keep it real. I’m going to keep it 100.”
She even hinted, “Listen, a Housewives show is based on a group of women. Do I think that some of my Housewives would like to see me gone? Yeah, I think they even approached some of the other cast and asked them to help, but you know what, I think in the end, that’s an immaturity and I’m 50+ [years old]. There’s just no room for immaturity.”

The world is waiting for Chrissy Teigen and John Legend's baby No. 2--and it looks like we don't have to wait too much longer! Chrissy hit up The Ellen DeGeneres Show on Monday...
At this point, Kim Zolciak contributes more to Real Housewives of Atlanta by not showing up than a lot of the cast members do when they are actually present. Kim skipping out on the cast trip to Barcelona was a highly talked about topic.
Kim’s frienemy-tuned-enemy NeNe Leakes questioned everything from Kim’s marriage to her health. Porsha Williams mentioned this to Kim while they were on the phone and Kim clapped back with a SCATHING group text about NeNe. The ladies couldn’t keep Kim’s name out of their mouths, but they should not have expected her to show up anyway. Kim claims that she “made sure” the cast trips were not a part of her contract as a “Friend of the Housewives” this season.
Kim is the master of having her cake and eating it too. She has two shows on Bravo and she’s able to saunter in and out of Real Housewives of Atlanta when she pleases. She still gets to talk shit about her costars during on-camera interviews, but she apparently has zero obligation to travel with people she doesn’t even like.
Kim tweeted, “I made sure ‘trips’ were NOT a part of my contract! I’m not stupid!” Clearly not. There really is a different set of rules for Kim on this network. Then again, I feel like it doesn’t even matter if Kim didn’t go. The production company didn’t have to pay for Kim’s travel, yet she still did the absolute most for the last episode’s story line – via text message. She is a bargain for whoever is signing her checks.
A viewer pointed out the obvious via tweet: “How is Kim Z the subject of all these conversations though when she stayed in Atlanta? They ain’t got NOTHING else to talk about in Barcelona?” Kim quoted the tweet and added, “Nothing!!” Apparently, she’s not wrong.
Another Twitter user responded to Kim saying, “Don’t you think that’s a little unfair to huge fans like me?” Kim quoted that and shared, “I was also filming my own show at the same time love.”
I have no idea why NeNe was annoyed that Kim “ditched” the trip since they cannot stand each other. Oh wait, there is a guaranteed the story line and (likely) increase in ratings thanks to Kim’s presence. Anyway, NeNe hated on Kim’s absence and decided to question her various medical issues. Kim tweeted, “It’s disgusting! We can cut up joke and play around BUT health, kids, hubbys off limits!!”
A fan tweeted, “We all know @Kimzolciak survived cancer because she was sitting at Chili’s eating an awesome blossom when she got the news! She said it on the first #rhoa reunion! Thanks @Bravotv for re-running it today!” Clearly this person is a longtime viewer since this is a reference to that infamous Season 1 reunion story that Kim shared at the reunion about waiting at a Chili’s for some test results. She shared this anecdote when she was asked about wearing wigs and it just didn’t add up completely. Nevertheless, Kim insisted, “I NEVER SAID I HAD CANCER I don’t find this funny.”
Kim also pointed out, “Considering DWTS was a huge part of my stroke and I filmed my heart surgery, she is pretty pathetic.” And her tweets concluded with, “I don’t lie!! I don’t need 2! I live in my truth ALWAYS have ALWAYS will! It’s easy that way. I don’t need aliases or have to pretend to be somebody I’m not! The end.” I doubt that it is really “the end.” After all, there is a Season 10 reunion to film.

Even with all the (alleged) cheating scandals and clique drama, the most infamous story line from this season of Vanderpump Rules is the pasta-infused argument between Lala Kent and James Kennedy. Things went from zero to one hundred (real quick) when James told Lala and Logan Noh that his girlfriend Raquel Leviss was moving in with him. Then he accused them of not liking his girlfriend and Lala tried to lighten the mood when she mentioned that she and Logan ate Raquel’s pasta while James was DJing at SUR.
James was overly offended by that statement and took things to another level when he told Lala “Honey, you f*ck a fat man because he pays for your rent.” Mentioning, or even just alluding to, Lala’s man (Randall Emmett) is a surefire way to set her off. She stormed out of the restaurant and two of them started screaming at each other on the sidewalk. Over pasta. And the insults about Lala’s relationship, but it did all stem from pasta chatter, so the fans wanted to know if it was really “about the pasta.” Or is there so much more to that story?
After that episode aired and a numerous memes and GIF’s started to circulate with James screaming “It’s not about the pasta,” the Vanderpump Rules fandom grew suspicious that “pasta” was actually a code word for cocaine. In an interview for the Reality Life With Kate Casey podcast, Lala opened up about that infamous spat.
Lala explained that she was actually coming from a considerate place when she decided to bring up pasta instead of the James and Logan secret romance rumors.
She said, “James’ main story line was ‘Is he a closeted gay person?’ For me, they wanted me to talk about that story line and I care for James, I care for Logan, I didn’t want to talk about it. It’s none of my business. I know how things like this feel. It happened for me last year when the married man thing kept coming up. It was like, I’m not going to do this to James.” Unlike the other cast members who were salivating at the mouth when this rumor started circulating.
Lala shared, “When I mentioned the pasta, you have to know Raquel and I had a 45-minute conversation that night, a heart to heart, that [Raquel] doesn’t even remember. There was a bowl of pasta that we all were eating.” Again, she emphasizes that it was just pasta.
She said, “I mentioned the plate of food to veer the conversation that we were having when everything went down. I mentioned the food to make it more lighthearted and it went to a different level of going insane on my boyfriend. It was horrible. The pasta scene, as funny as it is now, really was to just lighten the mood of everything because everything was getting very heated between Logan and James.” It was just so confusing to watch, yet I couldn’t help getting invested in whatever it was they were actually fighting about.
I wasn’t the only one who was thrown off by the surprisingly heated exchange. It was tough to believe that these people love their carbohydrates enough to argue over a bowl of pasta. As soon as someone mentioned that it might not actually be about the pasta after all, the rumor spread like wildfire. Lala remarked, “It turned into me bullying her or me using a code word for cocaine, I had never touched that disgusting drug in my entire life. It was the strangest thing that something so simple was turned into a huge thing.”
Aside from the drug rumors (that obviously bothered Lala), the SUR hostess was livid that James brought her man Randall into the conversation. She said, “When I watched James just spew so much hate for someone I love and adore more than anything…It was a disgusting moment for him.”

If you're anything like us, Netflix's teenage witch is already your new favorite TV character. Sabrina is coming back to TV, with two seasons already ordered by Netflix. The show...Well guys, last night on Sister Wives we traded tacos and matrimonial entitlement for pink p knit caps and female empowerment. I’d say that’s an improvement, wouldn’t you? While I’m still not on board with this whole “two hour episode” format, I’ll watch Meri Brown uncomfortably support her daughter while Kody bitches about civil rights for polygamists any day if it means Tony is absent. Throw in an overly giddy Christine, less screen time for Robyn, a therapy session with Janelle, and a glass of Malbec, and it’s quite a nice little cozy evening.
In case you missed it, Mariah has purple hair and she’s still as sullen as ever. She’s summoned her mother and Janelle and both are beyond nervous and curious as to the reason behind the meeting. She invites them both to the Women’s March on Washington. I am dying laughing. I feel like knitting pussy hats is the hobby Christine didn’t know she needed. Mariah cites both ladies as being supportive of her journey. Janelle is intrigued and emotional and open to the idea, and Meri is all, um, is this an LGBT thing? Meri feels like this invitation from her daughter is a step in the right direction to fix their fractured relationship.
Janelle jokes with Meri that they will have to travel together, and thankfully Mariah can be their buffer. Privately, she’s concerned that taking a trip with Meri could undo the progress they’ve made in therapy. What progress is that? Janelle’s younger self wanted to be a protester, but the whole “marrying a man who already has a wife” thing kind of derailed her Rosie the Riveter aspirations. Meri has no desire to be political, and she certainly doesn’t want to be involved in a protest. However, she does need to know one critical piece of information. Does Mariah have a girlfriend? Mariah is a tad more liberal than the rest of the Brown clan (you think, Captain Obvious?), but Meri reminds us that it doesn’t make her a bad person. It just means she has different opinions. Meri recalls when Mariah announced she was gay to her parents, and how differently she responded than the other wives. She’s really hoping to make up for that less than stellar moment.
Now that Mykelti has fled the nest and her wedding is a memory, Madison and Caleb are rejoining the cul-de-sac compound. I’d say it’s an even trade. Kody ticks off the reasons they are moving back home: baby, school, work, money…as in, having one, not going, need, need. He then has a temper tantrum about the parking situation that is impeding the unloading of Caleb’s trailer. It may be easier if two of the vehicles weren’t out of commission. Caleb is struggling with the notion of being a thirty-year-old husband with a child on the way who is moving in with his in-laws. Christine feels for the outdoors man who has to relocate to Las Vegas. He’s not a big fan of the strip. Caleb suffered from a pulmonary embolism that was life threatening, and his health issue is the major motivating factor behind the move. Okay, that’s pretty serious.
Meri may have an empty nest, but she does have a wet bar and can entertain the family when needed. She has Kody and the wives over to discuss the women’s march and share the news that she and Janelle will be joining her. Janelle is worried that Robyn and Christine’s feeling may be hurt because they weren’t included. Before that can even be dissected, Kody starts spouting off his reservations. It sounds too political. Why am I shocked that a man with multiple wives whose bravado is stifled only by his mane of hair has such a problem with women marching for equality? Like seriously, I legit had a few seconds where I was surprised he was so opposed to the idea. Y’all. My flu meds may be getting the best of me.
Meri is concerned that Kody‘s hesitancy will translate to Mariah as not being supportive. Kody describes the march as obnoxious. Why can’t his wives focus on a topic near and dear to his heart…making sure polygamists are treated equally. Is that too much to ask? Homosexuals have civil rights. Kody doesn’t…at least not in Utah with multiple spouses. He describes it as a conflict of interest. Hey dumb ass, why can’t they attend two marches? I’m so thankful that Kody reminded me how easy members of the LGBT community have it. Christine begs to differ. Thank goodness Christine steps up to be the voice of reason. How often does that happen? Kody believes that boosting up women is going to detract from his cause. Meri interrupts to say she’s going to march to support her daughter. Mariah has barely spoken to her in the past few months, if her daughter wants some time together, Meri isn’t asking questions. Christine beams when she sees Meri stand up to Kody. I’m actually going to organize a march on the cul-de-dac to get Kody to stop wearing so much under-eye concealer in his sofa segments. Who’s with me?
Because it’s the Browns and they live for a half-assed reason to buy balloons, Maddie is having a gender reveal party for her baby. It’s yet another concept that Kody doesn’t understand. King Solomon announces he wants a boy, and Caleb agrees. The family votes with mustaches and hair bows, and the reveal is done with some pesky trick balloons. It’s a boy! He shall be named Axel James. Christine is completely on board with the moniker. It’s so masculine. The Browns have more girls than boys in their brood of eighteen. Meri reminds them that as their children get married, they’ll have an equal number of females and males. Christine, who is clearly enjoying her meds more since that dreadful wedding, laughs hysterically. They don’t know if any more of their kids will be gay, and Mariah already threw off the balance since she’ll marry another woman. Great, please remind Kody once again that lesbians have more rights than he does. Eye roll.
Jenelle and Meri are off to another therapy session. Janelle is dreading it so much she’s tempted to hit up Meri’s wet bar for some booze. She’s considering bowing out of the trip to DC if they can’t settle some of their crap. The pair has had a few flare-ups in recent months. Meri is especially peeved that Janelle recently answered for her when being interviewed by a news outlet about Mariah coming out as a lesbian. Janelle shares that she was floored because to her recollection the question was asked to the group, not specifically to Meri. Janelle cites that the rest of the family involved in the interview didn’t think Janelle spoke out of turn.
Meri is tearful and plays the victim per usual, and Janelle concedes just to make the situation less awkward. She recognizes that a lot of Meri’s behavior she believed was aggressive could actually be defensive. She used to think Meri was just a straight up bitch. Correct! Janelle has a cup full of self-awareness, and Meri may need to borrow a spoonful…or a ton. Janelle is all for “implementing tools” so she can better deal with Meri’s tantrums. This is the Meri Show and Janelle is just an extra. I mean, if you’re going to be a whining, jealous, conniving first wife, at least be like April on Seeking Sister Wife. A baby voice and crazy smile can go a very long way, Meri!
Mariah is hosting a gaggle of friends for the weekend, and Meri is cooking pancakes and wondering if one of these lovely ladies could be a love interest for her daughter. Meri awkwardly hugs the girls while asking about the logistics of the march. She wonders if Mariah has let Kody know that she’s in town. Full disclosure, I used to equate Mariah with nails on a chalkboard. I’m not saying I don’t find her a tad obnoxious, but I do think now that she’s able to live her true self, she’s a lot more tolerable…and her disinterest in Kody is icing on that cake. Meri thinks that Mariah is going to announce a lady friend over brunch, and she’d like to hear it before the other wives. The gaggle of friends encourages the disclosure, and Mariah pinpoints the gal in the group who is her new girlfriend. Meri offers her congratulations and wonders how long the pair has been together. Three weeks! And Mariah has been gone for two of those weeks. Sounds serious!
Kidding aside, Mariah seems happy. Christine admits that she was trying to pick out the girlfriend out of the gaggle the second she arrived at breakfast. Robyn concurs. Kody is confused. Why did his wives automatically assume Mariah had a girlfriend? As the entire family congregates, Mariah announces the need for a parent meeting on the front lawn. The younger kids line up for eggs as Meri shuffles out with Mariah’s girlfriend Audrey under her arm. I’ll give Meri credit–she is really trying to show her support, and I recognize it’s counter to everything she’s ever believed, so kudos. Kody isn’t keen on these covert operations, but Audrey handles the family shenanigans like a champ. She calls the wives “adorable” as they converge on her with bear hugs, and she responds “the best” when Kody jokingly asks her intentions. The TLC producers then subject us to a cringe-worthy minute of Mariah’s feminist friends defending her parents’ polygamist lifestyle.
The closer the women get to the march, the more Meri and Janelle are recognizing the gravity of what in which they will be participating. Thankfully, the DC getaway begins with an innocuous steakhouse dinner. Meri appreciates that these girls are reveling in finding their voices. Mariah is very grateful that her mother and Janelle make the trek. After dinner, Meri approaches Janelle about bowing out of the following night’s dessert so she can spend some alone time with Mariah and Audrey. By all means, Janelle assures her.
At the march, Meri and Janelle are clearly fish out of water. Meri describes the energy as angry, but she is grateful Mariah and her pals kept their signs “classy.” Meri using the term classy is as hilarious as she and Kody swapping hair products and under eye concealer. Seriously, who does their make-up? Mariah and Audrey head out to find their missing friend while Meri and Janelle make the horrible decision to look for porta-potties. The odds of them reconnecting with their party are slim to none. Thankfully, they find their tribe amid the pink knit toboggans after a few hours of searching.
While Janelle and Meri are miles from their comfort zone, they are proud of Mariah and her friends for exercising their voices. Janelle feels empowered by their energy. That evening, Meri sits down with Mariah and Audrey after dinner. Don’t think I didn’t notice that wine glass sitting empty in front of her! The girls are a sweet, balanced couple, and Meri asks sincere, direct questions about Audrey’s coming out experience. She is thankful to learn that Audrey’s family is supportive of her, and Audrey relays that Mariah feels the same way about Meri even if she doesn’t tell her directly. It’s a touching moment, and honestly, I’m just thrilled we were spared pinatas and wannabe soloists. Amirite?

Tonight’s Celebrity Big Brother eviction is a complete mystery. Going into tonight’s episode and live eviction, it all comes down to the Power of Veto. Not only that, but it depends on which Veto twist got the most votes on Celebrity Big Brother.
On Friday, Julie Chen announced a major Celebrity Big Brother Veto vote. Viewers would have to pick between three choices: VIP, Spotlight, and Diamond. Big Brother fans are most familiar with the Diamond veto, which grants the winner the power to remove a nominee, and then name their own one.
We have seen different versions of this Veto throughout the latter seasons of Big Brother. It’s one of the most powerful Vetoes and twists in the game. The other two Vetoes are completely new concepts.
The VIP Veto is the most powerful one of this twist. It grants someone the power either to use the Veto once, twice, or not at all. He or she then must watch the Head of Household name a nominee, and then he or she can decide to use the Veto again or not. The final Veto is the Spotlight one, and has the least power. It just forces the Veto to be used.
This is the least impactful because if the Veto winner is someone on the block, it was going to be used anyway. Additionally, there are always two people on the block, one a pawn (or someone the HOH want out but not as much as the other person), and the target. With this Veto, someone could just remove the non-target and another pawn could go up on the block.
Based on the polls, it’s going to come down to the VIP or Spotlight Veto. The Spotlight Veto was winning the majority of the polls, but the VIP one was starting to pull ahead in these last few days.
We predict that the Spotlight veto will end up being the winner. We have no clue who is playing in the POV yet but we believe that Ross Mathews will win it, or someone will use it to save him, and then Brandi Glanville will go home.
We predict Brandi will be evicted tonight by a 4 to 1 vote.
Join us later tonight to see if our Celebrity Big Brother prediction comes true.

Now that one of Big Brother’s biggest fans, Shannon Elizabeth, has been evicted, clearly no one inside the house is safe. Shannon sealed her own fate with her self-proclaimed super fan status and by overplaying the Celebrity Big Brother game.
The Celebrity Big Brother house felt threatened by her and took advantage of the situation to eliminate her as a threat. Who will be crowned the next Head of Household (HOH),and who will be the next two nominees? Let’s find out now.
We pick up at the onset of the Big Brother HOH competition called “Courtside Seats.” This was an endurance comp where the houseguests hung onto their courtside basketball seats while the seats were attached to a wall angled forward. The last Celebrity Big Brother houseguest hanging onto their seat will win the coveted HOH; the first three houseguests to fall from their seats would have to eat the infamous slop.
Metta World Peace is the first houseguest to fall from his seat around the 32 minute mark. Just shy of 40 minutes, Ross Mathews is the next casualty. And at and 1:04, Mark McGrath is the final houseguest of the first 3 to fall from their seat, and he will be assigned slop for the next 48 hours in the Big Brother house.
Omarosa, James Maslow, and Brandi Glanville are only houseguests remaining in the HOH competition. Not only does the wall keep tilting forward, but the houseguests are also being blasted with souvenir t-shirts, water, and small basketballs–all in an effort to make them fall from their seats. Just shy of an hour and a half, Brandi could not hold on any longer and fell to the ground, leaving James and Omarosa in the competition for the next HOH in Celebrity Big Brother.
James began to really struggle with hanging onto his seat, so he started to talk with Omarosa about a deal. She offered James complete safety during her HOH. The other houseguests tried to convince James to stay in the comp and not take the deal. James knew he would not be able to hang on much longer, and he took the safety deal with her. Omarosa won this week’s HOH competition.
Metta, Ross, and Mark were introduced to their “slop” diet for the next 48 hours. Mark related the slop to baby barf and shared how tough this will be for him. Meanwhile, Metta thinks he will be OK with slop, but he shared how much he will miss eating beans over the next 48 hours. You just have to love Metta.
As you may recall, Shannon was evicted from the Celebrity Big Brother house by a vote of 5 to 1. One person voted for Mark to be evicted, and that voter was Brandi. She confessed her rogue vote to Ariadna Gutiérrez, the outgoing HOH, right before the recently completed HOH competition. Ari gave Brandi her word that she would not share that information with anyone else.
There was not much time elapsed before most of the Big Brother house were made aware of Brandi’s rogue vote. Ross assumed that Brandi voted for Mark to solicit a jury vote from Shannon. Her alliance with Ross, Ari and Marissa is now in jeopardy as they are unsure if they can continue to trust Brandi. Brandi told everyone that she felt sorry for Shannon and that was the only reason she voted for Mark.
Omarosa questioned Ari about the rogue vote and assumed the vote was made by Ross. She has made Ross her target for eviction this week. While discussing the vote, Brandi confessed to Omarosa that it was her that made It. Now that Omarosa knows about the Brandi vote, she wants to make sure she spins it to her advantage, but she is not sure how to do that as of now.
All of the Celebrity Big Brother houseguests were gathered into the living room for a special announcement. They are told that there will be a new twist in the game coming their way. America is currently voting to twist up the next Power of Veto. The new twist will be revealed prior to the live POV competition happening tonight. The houseguests begin guessing what the twist will be, but most agree they are looking forward to the twist.
Omarosa divulged in the diary room that she needs to make some plans and alliances in the Big Brother house so that her HOH is successful. She immediately made a deal with Mark and offered him safety in return for the same from him. The safety included no backdoors from either also. Omarosa made a deal with Metta for support in evicting Ross, done deal. Lastly, Omarosa met with James and offered the same deal to him making a 4-person alliance of herself, Metta, Mark and James.
At the nomination ceremony, Omarosa nominated Ross and Brandi to the block for eviction. She explained to Ross that he was nominated because he made the game personal by questioning her credibility, her integrity and by spreading seeds of doubt about her. Next, Omarosa nominated Brandi because of her rogue vote for Mark during the last eviction. Game on!
Tune in tonight for the live Power of Veto competition and eviction.

Last night the Real Housewives Of Atlanta were in Barcelona where the most exciting sight they saw were the roaches (errrr… “water bugs”) in NeNe Leakes bathroom. Hey, I guess it beats some lame sightseeing tour, right?! This was Cynthia Bailey‘s fault – they were supposed to be visiting a church but their wonderful hostess hauled them all the way there only to discover it was closed. So they had to make their own entertainment, and that is never a good thing.
So, Barcelona: beautiful weather, gorgeous phallic buildings, stunning culture… yet all the same drama. You can take the girls out of Atlanta, but you can’t take the Atlanta out of the girls. From the moment the women land on Spanish soil, there is bickering and shadiness.
I thought Eva Marcille wasn’t invited, but apparently she was. With Kenya Moore and Kim Zolciak cancelling last minute they needed to fill the beds at Cynthia’s ‘stunning’ Air B&B so in addition to Eva, Marlo Hampton and Shamea Morton were there. (How did Porsha’s phone-a-friend Shamea wind up invited – did Porsha have another ‘doctor’s note’?)
Inviting Marlo was probably a mistake. First of all, she was wearing a bright red ruffly ballgown with sneakers. Then she decided this was the perfect time to reveal her long-harbored criticism of Kandi Burruss for being “dry” and suggest Kandi enroll in some of Marlo’s etiquette classes.
What proper behaviors does Marlo really posses that she can teach others? Burping at the table? The only person ruder than Marlo is Kim! Also, why bring this up now? Kandi has permanent stink face unless there is food present, so why wait until you’re on an international vacation to complain about her crankiness?! I don’t understand the complicated rules of the Trophy Mistress kingdom. (Isn’t that Marlo’s main occupation?)
Poor Cynthia wanted to have fun so badly that every time someone was rude or awful, she just brushed it aside with all this false cheer. She tried to revive the mood by passing around her fun and exciting Fifty Cyn Spanish Bucket List, printed out on pink paper. It was a Legally Blonde moment to go with Cynthia’s blonde wig. The list was basically a bunch of hazing items from sorority rush week. “Pinch a cute guy’s butt” “Eat a foreign delicacy” (Olives?!) “Dance The Macarena in front of a church while waving your scarf that looks like a skunk tail”. Bless Cynthia’s heart – she always tries so hard!
But speaking of needing Marlo’s ettiquete classes, NeNe announces that she thinks Kim is faking most of her medical issues and points out that at the tender age of 49 39, Kim has survived cancer, a stroke, heart surgery, SIX PREGNANCIES, and a friendship with Moose. Something, according to NeNe, smells fishy – and it’s not the anchovy she dared to eat.
Next Cynthia teases everyone by taking them to a beautiful hotel for lunch and being like Oh, just kidding – we’re not staying in this 5-star accommodation, we’re just passing through for a taste of what we can’t have. Literally. And what they also can’t have is a harmonious lunch.
First Shamea questions Eva about being a ‘Kim Zolciak lesbian’ (aka when the shoe fits in famewhoring) but Eva is like so, so Cynthia waxes poetic about how she might put ‘lesbian encounter with Kandi‘ on her Fifty Cyn Bucket List, which is kinda turning into a Filthy Cyn list! Is she also gonna ‘cheat on Will‘ with some Spanish Tinder-ing?
Speaking of Will, Eva tries to apologize for being messy about him, which was all very nice, but Cynthia wants everyone – especially Porsha Williams – to stay out of her relationship. Cynthia points out that Porsha is the girl who cried bad sex, because this isn’t first time she’s repeated something she heard ‘from a friend’ that turned out to be false – like Kandi supposedly wanting to drug and rape her or Peter cheating with waitresses all over Atlanta. Porsha counters that if everyone in the room can say something about your man, it might be your man that is foul.
There are no wrong parties in this dispute, but Porsha is sulky that after Houston she assumed Cynthia was her friend until they got in front of the other ladies and Cynthia started being nasty again. Porsha can never get a break – not that she deserves one!
After all that shade, they’re ready to wash away their sins at a famous church, but the church ends up being closed so Shamea does some bizarre dance on the street corner to summon the lord and ask for donations. Um… as NeNe suggested, don’t quit your day job!
The disappointments continue when they finally reach their Air B&B… which looked nice online (and to me, but I am no Real Housewife!). I mean, we have all been there for a disappointing ABB, right? But these gals were really, REALLY disappointed over sharing a bathroom. Oh the horrors. The absolute and total horrors. Especially for these mature gals like NeNe!
After Kandi snags the best room with a balcony looking over the city, NeNe confers with Cynthia and decides that as the “mature” ladies of the group, they should be given the ‘top floor’. NeNe meant mature as in behavior, but surely no one who passes out a pink bachelorette party scavenger hunt list could be considered mature in “behavior,” so the ladies mistakenly assume NeNe was talking about her and Cynthia’s age! Oops. Like NeNe and Cynthia have “seniority” in their Fifty Cyn-ness? Kandi has no interest in giving up her room for an old lady. (Or an immature one.) NeNe’s attempt to score a room with a view ends with NeNe getting a view only of Kandi’s true feelings towards her!
Kandi just announced how NeNe was opening her Xscape Reunion Tour with her comedy act, because they were in such a good place, but just like NeNe’s gig, that was short-lived!
Why wouldn’t NeNe just say, as the hostesses could we have have the top floor? After all, we found and reserved this glamorous, deluxe, stunning house for all of you and even shoved Sheree Whitfield in the basement so she can see what a finished basement looks like, so clearly we deserve the best of the worst in the rooms department?
Afterwards the women go their separate ways to change into designer pajamas for a ‘relaxed’ dinner at home. Marlo visits with NeNe and Cynthia to complain about Kandi’s lack of manners.
Porsha apparently thought dinner was a costume party so she dressed as I Dream Of Jeanie, and suddenly also has a mysterious eye issue due a latex allergy because of false eyelash glue. Who is she with that crazy – Kim Zolicak? She’s in her dark cave of a room, wearing sunglasses to read over her lines for her new acting gig when Sheree and Shamea come in and decide to call the ‘real’ Kim. (That is the only time the words “real” and “Kim Z” can be used in the same sentence).
Kim’s sad she (and Kroy) stayed home after learning Kenya didn’t come. Until Porsha, who is a terrible actress and really needs the rehearsal (maybe she was practicing on Kim?), mentions that she had NO IDEA at all that Wigs was a cancer survivor until NeNe told them.
Kim is off like an itchy wig accusing NeNe of having roaches and revealing that Brielle took a video of them in NeNe’s bathroom. I have so many questions about this: 1) Like Brielle and Kim are so addicted to social media they’re snapchatting in the bathroom? 2) Who really keeps a video like that for months and months unless they were planning sabotage all along 3) Brielle was at NeNe’s Girls Who Can’t Twirl and Gays Who Can’t Dress White Black And Read All Over Party? 4) Why exactly do Kim and NeNe hate each other now?
Also, Sheree literally has NO purpose on this show other than being carrier of bones everyone else refuses to touch because they’re disgusting. Oh, how the mighty Housewife has fallen.
While everyone is at dinner, eating to the empty seats of Kim and Kenya, decorated with a headless wig and a headless crown like the deposed queens; eating to the sounds of Marlo lecturing Kandi for being distant and ill-mannered, and just as NeNe is shrieking at Shamea for joking about her age – because NeNe has a range from 0 – 100 (like every other human alive) and although she is presently at 93 SHE IS NOT OLD – Kim sends a group text calling NeNe “disgusting” for making fun of her illnesses. That text includes the video of NeNe’s so-called roaches. NeNe insists they’re “waterbugs” because it’s not possible to have roaches in a “brand new with tags house” – unlike Kim’s repurposed foreclosure.
The women are still processing that first shade bomb, when Kim sends a photo of NeNe parked in a handicapped spot at the mall. If NeNe was nearing 100 already, she ended up on the world’s oldest (and angriest) humans list after that. She is so mad she’s almost speechless with apoplexy.
And just for the record, NeNe was at the mall “with a handicapped person”. And that ‘handicapped person’ was Gregg. He’s handicapped now? But, seriously, how on earth did Kim recognize NeNe’s car in the parking lot, if she doesn’t care about NeNe nor like her and has no idea what she’s doing in her life? Maybe NeNe has a personalized license plate – it probably says something “QueenPeach” Or “EatMyPeachBitches”
Kim & Brielle Hire An Attorney After NeNe Calls Them Racists, But Kim Would Still Give Friendship With NeNe Another Chance?
TELL US – DID KIM CROSS THE LINE? DOES KANDI NEED ETIQUETTE CLASSES?
