Survivor: Island of the Idols Episode 6 Recap: An Aaron Judgment

Survivor: Island of the Idols Episode 6 Recap: An Aaron Judgment

Well that was an intense one! This week’s episode of Survivor: Island of the Idols was perhaps the best episode of the season thus far, with strategic game-play right from the get-go, a daring attempt for an advantage that took place during an Immunity Challenge, and a nail-biter of a Tribal Council that was unpredictable and exciting. As Survivor is also known as the world’s greatest social experiment, it also featured a very important scene of understanding that acted as a learning moment not only for the one involved, but for all of us watching at home as well.

As I do at the beginning of every recap, please heed the following: Remember that this recap assumes that you have already seen this week’s episode of Survivor: Island of the Idols. If you have not and don’t want to be spoiled, please come back later! It’s important to add that while we WILL hit on all of the important developments of the episode, this is not a linear “blow-by-blow” recap. It is more of a discussion and reaction of what we just witnessed together.

Survivor: Island of the Idols Episode 6 Recap: An Aaron Judgment

It’s never fun to watch one tribe dominate an entire season, so it was very refreshing to see the Orange Tribe come from behind and pull off the win at this week’s Immunity Challenge. It set us up to finally see a tribe of 4-on-4 square-off against one another, being that they are made up equally of the original tribe members. What was revealed was how fragile some of these original tribe alliances are, as Elaine was immediately targeted without much friction from her fellow original tribe mates. As Survivor is a game that takes a tremendous amount of luck to go along with all of the necessary skills, Elaine proved to have some incredible luck, or you could say the “Survivor Gods” were smiling on her. Being on the outs of her tribe (without knowing that she was) most likely led to her sitting out the Reward Challenge, which in turn led her to the Island of the Idols, which of course led her on a path to get her “block-a-vote” advantage that ultimately saved her game.

Survivor: Island of the Idols Episode 6 Recap: An Aaron Judgment

Is everybody loving Elaine? I sure am. She’s funny and entertaining, down-to-Earth, and like Sandra said tonight, she’s the type of player that just could win it all. And having a great cast is a HUGE part of what makes these Tribal Councils matter…it’s so much more fun when we care about the people whose games are on the line. So in really liking Elaine, I was personally ecstatic to learn that Aaron ended up sticking with his original tribe mates, despite lying and holding the line with the other tribe up to the very last second.

But there were some signs that Aaron was going to stay true. Earlier in the episode, it did seem like Aaron was the one who brought up Elaine‘s name as the person to target, and he did. He also was pretty straight-forward in his confessionals on the subject. But a telling part of the episode was that after Elaine told him about her block-a-vote advantage, we never saw Aaron spill the beans with this info to the other side of the tribe. You’d think if he was a full-fledged turncoat, he’d let the other tribe know Elaine’s exact plans, but he didn’t. I picked up on this, and it was my only hope that Elaine was going to stay safe.

But was Aaron‘s call to keep Elaine a good move, or was it an error in judgment? Time will tell, but it’s pretty clear that even if he does plan on rocking the boat eventually, he ultimately decided that now was not the correct time to do so.

Survivor: Island of the Idols Episode 6 Recap: An Aaron Judgment

Aaron‘s decision of course led to the demise of Jason, who was probably the smartest person to target. They still could use Tommy in the challenges, and although Lauren looked upset – no, devastated – by the outcome at Tribal, Missy and Elizabeth did have a relationship with her that might still be salvageable. Dan, like Karishma last week, probably doesn’t represent the biggest immediate threat, so therefore Jason was the only choice.

What I really liked about this episode though from the standpoint of an audience member, is the fragility of all of the major alliances. Again, there’s nothing more boring than watching a large, tight-knit alliance dominate the game from week to week. To know that the alliances that seem to be running the show so far have some cracks and weaknesses, and would be willing to throw each other under the bus at the drop of a hat? That’s great for TV, and hopefully will lead to more and more shocking, surprising, and electric Tribal Councils down the stretch.

Survivor: Island of the Idols Episode 6 Recap: An Aaron Judgment

Episode Take-Away: Other than once again feeling annoyed by the presence of Boston Rob and Sandra (whom I both LOVE, just not in this capacity), the other stand-out portion of tonight’s episode dealt with Jamal and Jack. Survivor is a microcosm of society, and this was a great example of subconscious white privilege at work…however the true lesson came in how both Jamal and Jack reacted to the situation. Jack clearly didn’t mean any harm, but that’s part of the problem with privilege: Having no intent is not the same as doing no damage. And while Jamal was clearly and rightfully offended, he took his time to communicate to Jack why this was, and Jack took the time to learn from Jamal’s words. In the end, both of them walked away with a better understanding of the situation and each other, and the audience was left with a great example of how people in the real world should try to communicate with one another. This is just one of many reasons why Survivor is still the greatest Reality TV show on the planet, as I’m quite sure no other Reality Show can encapsulate real issues and provide teachable moments quite like this show can and does on a consistent basis.

Voted out this week: Jason

Won Immunity: Orange Tribe

Vote: Elaine played her “block-a-vote” advantage to block Jason‘s vote. No Idols were played. 4 – Jason (Elaine, Elizabeth, Missy, Aaron), 3 – Elaine (Dan, Tommy, Lauren).

Survivor: Island of the Idols Episode 6 Recap: An Aaron Judgment

Next Week’s Episode: It looks like the tribe win over at Orange this week is going to pay-off big next week…as the “bottom-feeders,” given a bit of extra time to strategize, look to form a mutiny against those on the top…also as we reach the halfway-point of the season (already??), we will take a look at each of the remaining contestants and assess their chances of winning it all.

Survivor: an honest, vulnerable discussion of race and privilege was just one part of an all-time-great episode

The conversation between Jamal and Jack was not a tangent nor extraneous to Survivor’s game: this was the backbone that Survivor and CBS haven’t had for years.

Jackie Goldschneider Explains Why She Got Lips Done After Criticism From Real Housewives Of New Jersey Fans

RHONJ-Jackie-Goldschneider

RHONJ-Jackie-Goldschneider

Real Housewives of New Jersey cast members have never shied away from getting a little nip here or tuck there. And for the most part, they are pretty open about it. Dolores Catania admitted to having a neck lift, face lift, and some other procedures in the past. Teresa Giudice finally got her “bubbies” done during the first season of the show.

Melissa Gorga toyed with the idea of getting her butt enhanced, and later admitted to getting a nose job. Melissa decided to have the procedure after watching herself on her first season of RHONJ. Margaret Josephs even had a face lift between the end of filming Season 9 and the reunion.

In an interview with toofab, Jackie Goldschneider explained why she decided to get her lips done. “Last season, people had a lot to say about my lips. Oh, my goodness! They called me paper-cut lips! And it got inside my head, and as soon as filming for Season 9 was over, I went and I got lips,” Jackie shared. “I mean, I never even thought about it before; I always thought I had nice lips! But I got lips, and I’m actually really happy. They do look much better.”

So, who does Jackie go to when she wants advice about changing her appearance? Margaret is Jackie’s plastic surgery and beauty procedure guru.

RELATED: Dolores Catania Calls Out Jackie Goldschneider For Making Fun Of Teresa Giudice

Jackie shared, “Any time I’m thinking of getting something done, I call her and I’m like, ‘Do you think I should get this?’ And she always is like, ‘Stop it right now. You’re beautiful!’ Margaret is just the best, and she always reminds me that I’m beautiful and that I don’t need it and that I’m still on the young side and to not get carried away. You just have to learn to trust the people who love you and not the people who comment online,” Jackie stated.

Of course, last season Margaret did tell Jennifer Aydin that Jennifer’s plump pout “looked like a monkey’s a**hole.” Is that the new, hot trend in lips? Is that somehow a compliment? I am confused.

RELATED: Real Housewives Of New Jersey Star Jackie Goldschneider Shares An Update On Her Turbulent Relationship With Teresa Giudice

Maybe the Housewives should pump the brakes on getting lip fillers and cosmetic treatments for a little while before they morph into totally different people. Just saying.

Jackie, and her new lips, are ready for Season 10 of RHONJ. And Jackie has made it clear that she is not afraid of “OG” Housewife Teresa. Jackie even called out Teresa for posting two videos of Jennifer imitating Jackie. And so the drama begins!

Kenya Moore Is Interested In Reuniting With Marc Daly; Denies Rumor That Marc Has A Secret Family

Kenya Moore is THIRSTY

Kenya Moore is THIRSTY

Real Housewives of Atlanta Season 12 hasn’t even debuted yet, but there’s already plenty of drama. Kenya Moore and Marc Daly announced their split after less than two years of marriage. Immediately, rumors began to swirl.

To absolutely no one’s surprise, there were reports that their breakup was filmed for the show. And then, there were rumors that Marc had “multiple affairs” while he was in a relationship with Kenya. And there’s also the weird rumor that Kenya and NeNe Leakes are at odds over NeNe’s secret friendship with Marc. Now, Kenya is speaking out for the first time since she and Marc twirled their separate ways.

In an interview with People, Kenya declared, “I didn’t get married to quit.” She also remarked, “I love my husband. I don’t doubt that he loves me. Let me be clear, I took my vows seriously. I believe in for better and for worse and I believe in trying it all before you walk away, especially when we do have a child and we are a family.” So, what does this mean? Are they working on their relationship?

Kenya said that she “doesn’t get the sense that [Marc] feels the same way.” That’s…. awkward.

RELATED: Marlo Hampton “Bores” Kenya Moore; Kenya Calls For New Cast Members On Real Housewives Of Atlanta

Still, Kenya remarked, “I am hopeful, and have always wanted to work on our relationship. But I just don’t know if that’s even a possibility at this point, honestly.”

She also threw some light shade at her estranged husband. Kenya said, “Marc doesn’t seem to be there. I’d feel more comfortable calling it quits if I knew I’d tried everything and it still didn’t work. And we definitely didn’t do everything we could have done to save our relationship.”

RELATED: Kenya Moore Says NeNe Leakes Is “Threatened And Bothered” By Her; Thinks NeNe Needs “Counseling”

She also took the time to deny some gossip that’s been circulating around the split. Kenya said, “I can tell you I’ve heard a lot of rumors about secret families. I can tell you that’s completely made up; there’s zero truth to that.”

Then, she vaguely said, “In terms of infidelity, I’ve had no proof of that. That’s not our issue.” She doesn’t have proof,  but does she have suspicions? I mean, he does live in New York while she’s at Moore Manor in Atlanta.

RELATED: Kenya Moore Calls NeNe Leakes A “Bully” & Says NeNe “Has Very Few Friends”

Speaking of the distance between them, Kenya told the magazine, “It was frustrating for me that he kept opening businesses in New York, but listen — I want him to be successful and that’s how he feeds his family. So I couldn’t be selfish. But if you’re living in two different places, you have to be together during the times you are in the same place; either you’re both in NY and you’re both in Atlanta. And when we’d be in the same place, we weren’t always in the same place. So with the businesses, the distance, and the baby, it just became hard for us to figure it all out.”

Kenya also said that she wanted to go to counseling with Marc, but he wasn’t feeling the idea.

Andy Cohen Wishes He Defended Caroline Manzo After Teresa Giudice Accused Caroline Of Being “A Rat”

Andy Cohen Wishes That He Had Defended Caroline Manzo After Teresa Giudice Accused Caroline Of Being “A Rat”

Real Housewives of New Jersey star Teresa Giudice is heading to Italy soon with her four daughters to visit her husband, Joe Giudice. Teresa and Joe pleaded guilty to fraud charges in 2014, and both went to prison camp. Joe, who was sentenced to 41 months in prison, never became an American citizen.

Joe was taken into ICE custody when he was done serving his prison time, and an immigration judge ordered that Joe be deported to Italy. Teresa’s husband appealed the ruling. Joe opted to leave the ICE detention center where he was held for nearly a year and head to Italy, where he will wait for the final decision on his appeal.

Of course, this reunion in Italy will be filmed by Bravo, and will net Teresa a nice paycheck. Teresa told her shocked co-stars at last year’s reunion that she and Joe would divorce if he was deported. And she didn’t look depressed when she was spotted out several times with the much-younger Blake Schreck. They were even seen strolling and holding hands. You know, as one does with a platonic friend.

When Teresa and Joe were interviewed by Andy Cohen on Watch What Happens Live on October 27, the anticipation was high. Joe joined his wife via video chat from Italy, and it was more awkward than the world’s worst blind date. Basically, they both said that they thought that the other had been unfaithful, and that they were unsure of their feelings for each other. It was pretty clear that Joe doesn’t appear “juicy” to his wife anymore.

RELATED: Jacqueline Laurita Says Caroline Is The Queen Of Real Housewives Of New Jersey, Not Teresa Giudice; Caroline Approached About Being A Friend Of The Housewives

But the interview also had an unexpected target–RHONJ alum Caroline Manzo. Teresa insinuated that Caroline was the one who tattled to the feds about the Giudice’s financial dealings. US Weekly reported that Andy admitted that he wished that he had defended Caroline during his Sirius XM show Andy Cohen Live. During the October 28 episode of his show, Andy said that he did “regret” not standing up for Caroline when Teresa said, “all this horrible stuff about [Caroline].”

“I brought up … and it just hit me. It was not anything I had planned on asking her, but as I was sitting, I realized that I remember Caroline making a prediction five years ago,” Andy explained. “Her prediction was that Joe was gonna go to prison, Teresa was gonna get strong and independent, and then was gonna [file for] divorce.”

RELATED: Joe & Melissa Gorga Hope The Kids Will Keep Joe & Teresa Giudice Together

Teresa fired back at Caroline’s comments from the RHONJ clip. “How could she predict that? Could she have anything to do with what happened to Joe and I?” Teresa remarked. “Is she a rat? With her saying that? Those words would never come out of my life, regarding anybody.” Of course, if Joe and Teresa hadn’t committed fraud, they wouldn’t have landed in jail. Have these two learned anything from what they have gone through? Nope!

On his radio show, Andy commented, “Caroline’s never been to jail. Caroline has never committed a crime.” But don’t worry–Joe told his wife that he knows who the real rat is.

RELATED: Real Housewives Of New Jersey Star Jackie Goldschneider Shares An Update On Her Turbulent Relationship With Teresa Giudice

According to People, Caroline has already started to clap back at Teresa’s accusations. Caroline shared a series of three photos and videos to Instagram. The first one pictures Caroline standing with a podcast microphone. She tagged Dear Albie which is her son, Albie Manzo’s, podcast account.

The next slide was a video of Caroline putting together podcast equipment while the song, “If You Say My Eyes Are Beautiful” by Whitney Houston played. The song was an obvious slam about Joe’s compliment about Teresa’s eyes during the interview with Andy.

RELATED: Real Housewives Of New Jersey Star Joe Giudice Speaks Out For The First Time Since Prison Release

In the final slide on her Instagram, Caroline spoke to the camera while poking fun of Joe’s grammar skills. “I don’t typically dance and sing this early in the morning, but I have to laugh,” Caroline said. “I couldn’t find the word ‘beautifulest’ anywhere, I’m sorry. But you’ll be hearing from me soon.” Boom! Mic drop!

People is reporting that Andy also fielded questions about Caroline on his SiriusXM Andy Cohen Live show. A curious caller asked about how Caroline would respond to Teresa’s accusations. Andy said, “Umm, the answer is … we did speak the other day. I would say that she is not pleased and I would say that you will probably be hearing from her in some capacity. Soon.”

Denise Richards Confirms She Will Be On Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills Despite Reports She Is Missing Out On Filming Because Of Her Acting Career

Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills Denise Richards

Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills Denise Richards

The upcoming season of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills is going to be drastically different. Two of the OG cast members, Lisa Vanderpump and Camille Grammer, will not be there to mix it up and call out the other ladies. Newbies Garcelle Beauvais and Sutton Stracke will be there to bring the drama instead. Those are some big Christian Louboutin’s to fill. 

Denise Richards had her freshman season this past go around. And I’m sure she has a lot of wisdom to impart on Garcelle and Sutton. Such as how to get know-it-all Teddi Mellencamp Arroyave to stop talking, or ice queen Erika Jayne to start talking. But rumors abounded that Denise wouldn’t play a big part in the newest season due to her busy acting career. Luckily, the rumors aren’t true.

In an interview with HollywoodLife, Denise dished she is very much a part of the newest season of RHOBH. When asked about the rumors she was not going to be featured as much due to her busy acting career, Denise said she “didn’t hear” that gossip.

I’m glad that she will be around. I really enjoyed that Denise was very much herself, and didn’t have her guard up in order to portray a false image like the rest of the cast does. 

RELATED:Report: Denise Richards’ Busy Acting Career Allegedly Causes Major Absence From Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills

Denise shared, “Housewives is a reality show, so they film reality, and whatever you’re working on, they’ll film that. I think that the Housewives film the jobs, and family life and other things we have going on in our life, otherwise it wouldn’t be a reality show.”

Just not anything to do with lawsuits, right? I mean, the entire next season could literally be about the numerous lawsuits each of them has. Ahem, Kyle Richards and Dorit Kemsley. And we have to add in Denise, who just resolved her own lawsuit regarding a $20,000 credit card debt.

But we all know the lawsuit drama probably won’t be featured, so maybe we’ll get more footage of Denise working on set instead? Who doesn’t want more behind the scenes of Denise filming Hallmark Christmas movies! As of now, we know that she is filming Beverly Hills, 90210. She also will be a part of The Bold and the Beautiful, FraXtur, and The Secret Lives of Cheerleaders. Hopefully, she kept Charlie Sheen away from that cheerleader set. 

So what drama does Denise have coming up on RHOBH? She teased, “You’re going to have to watch, and wait, and see.” I can’t see Denise having any major drama with any of the ladies, but I guess we’ll just have to wait and see to find out!

Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills Star Erika Jayne’s Husband Tom Girardi Finally Pays $3 Million Debt

Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Star Erika Jayne’s Husband Tom Girardi Finally Pays On $3 Million Debt

Well here’s some good news in the Land of Litigation, also known as Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. It’s no secret most of the cast have been caught up in heavy financial issues. Kyle Richards’ husband Mauricio Umansky is currently under siege in a $32 million case over a Malibu mansion. Dorit and PK Kemsley were under the gun as well. They had several issues to contend with, including a lawsuit over Dorit’s swimwear line and an unpaid debt of PK’s from 2011. No one was more surprised than us when both of those cases were recently settled.

Erika Jayne’s husband has also seen his fair share of court cases. Not because he is an attorney, but because he owed someone money too. In January, Tom Girardi was slapped with a $15 million lawsuit on the grounds of using funds to maintain a lavish lifestyle. Although Tom denied these claims, his wife has been pretty vocal about how much cash it takes to put her together every day. In July that case was reportedly settled. Now there might be some light at the end of the tunnel for Erika and her glam squad Tom. Apparently Tom has further made good on paying back funds, which is great, but they aren’t out of the woods quite yet. Hang in there, Mikey!

Erika and Tom’s legal difficulties have not been as public as Dorit’s, but then again Erika didn’t piss off Camille Grammer Meyer like Dorit did… That was good for her because Camille didn’t spill any of Erika’s personal business. Erika also made moves to keep their financial battles out of the public eye, by requesting the courts to seal the records. Now it looks like Tom has made some headway in a lingering case.

According to court documents obtained by The Blast, “Thomas Girardi dropped $2,982,272.42 owed on a $6 million debt. Earlier this year, the legal battle started when Law Finance Group sued Girardi and his law firm. The suit said they loaned $15 million to Girardi but he failed to pay it all back. Girardi only paid $10 million and was hit with a judgment of $6 million.”

In August, Erika was called into court because the lender believed she was in possession of personal property owned by her husband. Tom has been fighting claims he breached a repayment plan that was reached one year prior. Tom was supposed to make monthly payments and tack on a cool $1 million by the end of October and another $5 million by January 1. The suit showed Tom also agreed to use the Pasadena Palace as collateral in the event he defaulted. Maybe Tom could have used the $5,000 toilet Erika purchased for him as collateral too, while they were not funding a lavish lifestyle.

While obviously the debts have not been paid in full, let’s have a cheers for progress! I’m sure Dorit and Erika are giggling in the corner regarding their supreme reign over the legal system. But before they get too immersed in celebration, both still have outstanding issues to resolve. Dorit and PK might want to tend to their taxes and Erika and Tom still face a separate $3 million lawsuit over another alleged unpaid loan. So Mikey and the glam squad Erika and Tom aren’t officially in the clear, though it seems Big Daddy is trying to take care of business. Allegedly.
