Jason Oppenheim of Selling Sunset is giving us a glimpse of what’s to come. Only a bit, just a bit. He thinks this is the best year yet, lending to us not being disappointed. How so? Well, we’ve already seen the trailer so we have an idea of what’s to come. And that’s exactly why Jason says it’s so great.
Really? Yes. Jason described this year as “stressful”. I say this as I chill here with my dogs, listening to the birds chirping in nature, and drinking my cup of tea. If stressful is the definition of broker, no thank you – been there, done that professionally. But Selling Sunset is a show, and it’s built its staying power off of drama, chic LA attire, and luxury digs (but mainly the drama). So much so that it leaves a person wondering if the drama overshadows the real estate. Better keep getting bigger and bigger listings.
What else did Jason say?
He does say the real estate is better! Go, O Group! If you didn’t know, twins Jason and Brett Oppenheim have a lot of credibility and expertise in real estate. They come from a multi-gen real estate family, but have proven themselves in the market. Who else could have such a dramatic show about their brokerage and still be respected on a professional level? That’s a challenge.
Jason also told E News, the season was “a lot” and described it as “pretty intense.” He added, “I’m just so glad to have it over with, but it’ll be fun to watch.” I’m all for putting the past behind you and letting go of it. Probably fun for him though because he stays above the fray, and no one is going to be slighting the boss. I mean, he never he even gets mad – the Selling Sunset agents love him.
Lastly, Jason touched on the new agents. Apparently, Nicole Young is bringing her tenure at the O Group, and Bre Tiesi brings the excitement. I guess we’d have to watch to see. And as Netflix does, they’re bring those back-to-back seasons. Season 6 is here and Season 7 is already filming.
Binge Selling Sunset (or take it in little by little) on Netflix – starting May 19th.
TELL US – IS THE DRAMA A GOOD THING? WOULD YOU WORK THERE IF YOUR BOSS CALLED IT THE MOST STRESSFUL YET? WHAT DO YOU EXPECT FROM SEASON 6?
How is it that the Real Housewives of Atlanta manages to serve up juicy drama season after season? Season 6 gave us some explosive arguments, some incredible discoveries, and a physical showdown at the reunion. Get ready to take a look back at the bombshell moments that made Season 6 of RHOA one for the books!
Kenya Moore threw an extravagant masquerade ball in NeNe Leakes’ honor. Just to be a good friend to NeNe. Kenya was wearing a huge black feathered headdress and red gown. She wanted to show out for this event.
Kenya organized a bachelor auction. All to support a charity close to NeNe’s heart. Of course, Kenya may have forgotten to mention this fact to NeNe. NeNe showed up in a foul mood. She was immediately displeased about this surprise. The actress looked miserable. She also disputed that the event was in her honor. When asked to speak to the guests, NeNe remarked, “It’s amazing how many good friends I have and don’t know about it.” NeNe and her husband, Gregg Leakes, dipped out almost immediately.
Poor Kandi Burruss. She just wanted to wed her man, Todd Tucker, but her mother was firmly in her way. Mama Joyce was suspicious of Todd and his motives from the jump.
But when Kandi invited her mother, her aunts, and her bestie Carmon Cambrice to try on wedding gowns, it was far from a special moment. Mama Joyce had been spreading rumors that Carmon and Todd were having an affair. At the bridal shop, while Kandi was trying on gowns, her mom said that she will never be wearing a gown unless she marries someone else. Maybe someone with money.
When Carmon defended Todd and Kandi’s relationship, Mama Joyce had a meltdown. She screamed at Carmon and tried to hit her with her shoe. All totally normal behavior before a wedding, right? The fact that Kandi and Todd made it down the aisle is a miracle.
Pajamas and Problems

NeNe decided to have a couples’ pajama party. The vibe was more like an inquisition than a sharing and bonding moment. Kenya came late with her assistant, Brandon DeShazer, as her plus one. NeNe was spitting nails. Don’t ever keep NeNe waiting.
And when another man at the party touched Kenya, she told him off. Brandon leaped up to defend his employer, and Phaedra Parks’ husband Apollo Nida and PeterThomas attacked him. Apollo was in a terrifying rage. Phaedra hastily got ready to leave with her amped-up husband. And of course, there was only one person to blame for this unfortunate situation: Kenya, who was not only late but refused to stay seated. Bloop!
Let us remember that Porsha William’s grandfather, Hosea Williams, was a Civil Rights leader and minister. During the ladies’ trip to Savannah, they toured a historic Black church and learned about its incredible story.
The RHOA cast learned that the church was a stop on the Underground Railroad. Porsha asked who drove the train, and how it fit under the floor. A stunned Phaedra and Kandi explain that it was not a real train. But Porsha was still confused about how the people got off the train. Andy Cohen later revealed that Porsha was almost axed after her freshman season. It was easy to see why with comments like that.
The bad blood between Kenya and Porsha was never more evident than at the reunion. The ladies were seated on the same couch, with Cynthia seated between them. Kenya had her wand and megaphone with her and was shouting at Porsha. Kenya claimed that Porsha cheated on her ex-husband, Kordell Stewart. While Porsha was denying these allegations, Kenya again blasted Porsha with her megaphone, calling her a “dumb ho.”
Porsha stood up and approached Kenya. In a shocking and disturbing moment, she grabbed Kenya by her hair and dragged her across the stage. Andy tried to intervene and separate the two women. Kenya immediately demanded that Porsha be fired. Kenya went backstage while NeNe and Phaedra tried to comfort a hysterical Porsha. She was crying and sobbing uncontrollably. It was a difficult scene to watch. In the end, Porsha was sent home from the reunion.
Season 6 was filled with jaw-dropping moments. Some were shocking like the brawl at the pajama party and Porsha attacking Kenya onstage. While others were humorous, like Porsha’s complete lack of awareness of basic history. I’ll say it once again. RHOA always delivers.
TELL US- WHICH MOMENT WAS THE MOST SHOCKING FROM SEASON 6? WHO WAS TO BLAME FOR THE BRAWL AT THE PAJAMA PARTY? WERE YOU STUNNED THAT PORSHA DIDN’T KNOW WHAT THE UNDERGROUND RAILROAD WAS?
Being raised in front of the TV isn't so bad thanks to these ladies. It's Mother's Day and we can't think of a better time to honor the most special women in our lives: No, not our real mothers,...
