Although Michael didn’t start the most drama in the house during his stay, his exit sure did.
Michael was a competition beast on BB24. He set a new record for winning the most veto competitions in a single season. Earning 6, he beat BB6 player Janelle Pierzina who held the record for over 10 years with a total of 5. With this type of performance, Michael is sure to be back for future seasons of Big Brother. He’s definitely an all-star. Keeping his love for the game and the fact that he was a superfan hidden was more of a struggle for Michael, but maybe his love for the game also helped him secure so many wins.
On this past Thursday’s double eviction episode, he was the outgoing HOH who put Terrance Higgins on the block and ultimately sent him out the door. But during a turn of events, Matt Turner won the upcoming HOH and put Alyssa Snider and Brittany Hoopes on the block. Everyone competed in the veto competition and although Michael tried to secure a win, he just couldn’t do it.
Monte Taylor had the power of veto, used it to save Alyssa, and Turner then nominated Michael in his place. Michael pretty much knew his fate in the game was secured during that moment. It’s smart gameplay from the other players in the house and the worst-case scenario for Michael because he wasn’t able to properly campaign.
The house sent Michael packing and he left making his mark. “Everyone stay seated there’s one thing I’d like to say,” he said. After that, he ran towards the door and left without even a peep. But before that, he shook the house up during his final speech to the houseguests. During which he threw his number one ally, Brittany, under the bus. I mean, really shoved her under and didn’t give it a second thought.
Basically implying that she’s two-faced and can’t be trusted — he was fighting to show the houseguests he’s the guy you should be saving. Brittany was stunned, to say the least. However, Micahel is defending his actions in his latest interview with Entertainment Weekly. “I love Brittany to death. I don’t regret it. I was on the block. I knew I was probably gonna go home and would’ve regretted it forever if I did not try everything to stay in the house,” he said.
“All of the information I shared there in the living room, people had been talking about it for the past couple of days. It wasn’t like I exposed any new information or things that people were unaware of,” he continued. “I was trying to save myself in the moment, and as a Big Brother super fan, I hope she also understands if she had tried to blow my game up to save herself, I would’ve understood. And I hope that she can understand the same for me. But I definitely feel bad about it, but I don’t regret it,” he finished.
One thing about it… Michael is a true superfan who can admit that even he knows he was the bigger threat in the game and was trying to do anything he could to remove the target off his back and move it onto hers.
I hope Brittany isn’t too upset with Michael when she sees him for the first time again. Those two together could really make a power duo in future seasons.

On this season of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, we have seen a lot of Erika Jayne and her drinking. She admitted before the season began that she was taking prescribed medication and mixing it with alcohol to cope with her legal troubles. It has also been playing out during the season while she has tried to defend some of her questionable actions.
So far, her castmates, like the Fox Force Five, have fought tooth and nail to protect her. Lisa Rinna even dragged her out cursing after Erika got into it with Crystal Kung Minkoff and Garcelle Beauvais. They wanted to know why she wouldn’t return a pricey set of earrings to benefit the victims of her estranged husband Tom Girardi’s alleged misdeeds. What ended up happening was Erika going off the rails. And one of her fiercest allies, Kyle Richards, finally seemed to have enough.
As reported by Reality Blurb, Kyle made her feelings known on a recent episode of the RHOBH: After Show. Kyle explained, “I just don’t understand not being able to say, ‘Yes, there are victims. I feel terrible about the victims. They should all be paid and taken care of. I haven’t personally done anything, but I acknowledge that these victims exist.'” She then added, “That’s the part that I struggle with, not understanding why she can’t say that.”
But then Kyle offered a few excuses for Erika’s behavior. She noted that Erika “was not in the place to have a calm conversation” and became “aggressive.” Kyle continued, “She feels like she’s in the fight of her life, and she doesn’t like to feel like these women that she spends all this time with are not backing her. But it’s just hard sometimes. It’s very hard because it’s all very confusing, and as much as we want to, there are just certain things you’re like, ‘This just doesn’t make any sense.’”
Just a little question here – why would the whole cast blindly have her back? Especially Crystal and Garcelle, who Erika hasn’t exactly forged a relationship with. While Erika is busy kissing up to Diana Jenkins and relying on Rinna and Kyle to have her back, her other castmates have some real questions.
Sutton Stracke, who Erika has repeatedly gone after for those questions, also appeared on the show with her own take. Said Sutton of Erika,“She cannot use the word victim. [Tom] won the court cases, but they didn’t get the money. They were already victims. He won the court case. He did his job. It’s so simple.”

After announcing that she would not be posting about the show on social media, I think Lisa Rinna made good on that promise for one whole day. Now she’s back to give us a preview of what to expect from her at the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills reunion.
As reported by Page Six, Lisa admitted on her Instagram Stories that she’s been on the receiving end of some serious social media hate. She wrote, “I have been ‘threatened’ for the past 4 months by ‘people’ basically trying to scare me, trying to ruin my credibility, trying to call me a liar, creating things that aren’t true and don’t exist, but guess what? Today we’re going to sit down and we are going to talk about it all.” She added, “I will tell my truth. And yes you better believe I’m gonna talk about it all.”
Now I dislike Rinna as much as the next person, but threats are never acceptable. Not for the kids of housewives. And not for the housewives themselves, even if they are adults. Rinna didn’t clarify who was threatening her, but she did allude to it being related to text messages she shared that were allegedly from Kathy Hilton.
The alleged text from Kathy read, “please not say anything we discussed.” The message continued, “Otherwise, It will make a huge scene that everyone gets dragged into. No bueano [sic]. Please it goes further than you would want to know. Silence is golden. I am staying silent.” Rinna captioned the screen grabbed texts, “threat, for sure!” Later that day, Rinna also posted a video of her dancing and wrote, “I pay them all in Dust.”
Rinna has found herself on the losing end of this season thanks to some of her social media behavior. After Garcelle Beauvais’ teenage son was attacked online by bots, the whole cast rallied to support Garcelle’s family. They all reposted Bravo’s statement condemning the online trolling. But a few days later, Lisa wiped her social media clean of not only that post, but almost everything else RHOBH related. She even unfollowed most of her castmates.
Prior to that, she complained (again on Instagram) that producers didn’t give her enough airtime when she was grieving the loss of her mother. Last month, she also posted a photo of herself from her soap opera days walking a red carpet. She captioned it, “I was Lisa F–king Rinna before HW and I’ll be Lisa F–king Rinna After.”
Fans online are going wild with speculation that this is Lisa’s final season on RHOBH. But Rinna once noted that she’s like a cockroach because you can’t get rid of her. So is this all to drum up more attention before the reunion? Or is this really Rinna’s final performance?

Things are looking up for Season 10 of Vanderpump Rules.
When we last left the SURvers at the Season 9 reunion, James Kennedy and Raquel Leviss surprised everyone and announced that they were splitting up. James was quickly rumored to be in a new relationship, while Raquel focused on moving out, moving on, and moving up.
Recently, Raquel has been connected to two men familiar with the world of Bravo and reality TV. Of course, you’ve heard that she was accused of spending a little too much time with Garcelle Beauvais’ married son, Oliver Saunders. And then there’s that whole “making out with Tom Schwartz at Scheana Shay’s wedding to Brock Davies” thing.
While Raquel’s name has been cleared for her time spent with Oliver, there’s still the question of where hooking up with your castmate’s ex-husband falls in the Girl Code Handbook. (And while we’re at it, where does making out with Tommy Boy fall in the Self-Respect Handbook? I was rooting for this Bambi-Eyed-Babe!!)
According to sources at the wedding, some heavy drinking led to some heavy PDA between Raqy and Tom. Said the insider, “Prior to the actual ceremony, the day of, I saw Tom and Raquel heavily making out in the cenote, which is an underwater cave. Several other people did too as it was not that private of an area.”
Until further notice, nothing has been confirmed. But the internet is vast, and the Pump Rules fans are ruthless. According to Page Six, an old episode of Scheana’s podcast from about a month before her wedding has resurfaced. During the pod, she interviews Tom who spent a good portion of his time boasting about Raquel. Interesting…
“I was so caught up in my own little world and I was married — I never took time to get to know Raquel,” Tom revealed to Scheaner. “She was always cool. I just never really took [the] time to invest in her. That’s a horrible way to phrase it. I never really gave her a chance,” he added. “She has so much depth and character. I think I wrote her off.” Oof.
