Bravo Stars Who Could Have Performed on SNL

NBC has multiple long-running hits on their networks. But none are more popular than Saturday Night Live, Real Housewives, Summer House, and Southern Charm. While there are definitely a few honorable mentions, these shows have broken barriers. All are humorous and let their audience escape their troubles for an evening. So, with the 50th Anniversary of SNL streaming on Peacock, I thought it was only appropriate that an article be written about possible musical guests and hosts from the Bravosphere. Here’s who I rounded up. 

Luann de Lesseps as a musical act

I love Cher. Like I can’t express enough how this woman is a goddess to me. So when I saw her at 78 rocking her If I Could Turn Back Time look, I knew which Bravo star I’d pick to follow her. Without a doubt, Luann de Lesseps would have to be a musical act if there were an all-Bravo cast. The countess has quite a following and an immense stage presence. By now, she is a seasoned performer with costume changes and everything. She can improv, so there isn’t a worry about her forgetting her lines. Lu also has the dry humor of some pretty famous guests, so she’d fit right in with the big wigs. If in doubt, find a Joe Bradley-like fan who looks at Luann the way Kevin Costner looks at Cher.

Paige DeSorbo could be the equal to Ariana Grande

Paige DeSorbo and Ariana Grande are two peas in a pod. Both are incredibly talented and can hold anyone’s attention. The Summer Houses star is right on the mark and hot with current trends. Whether she is telling Kyle Cooke how to treat his wife, judging Lindsay Hubbard’s shoulder pads, or just having a mini breakdown about leaving New York, Paige resonates with the common man. I can imagine her pulling off skit after skit as perfectly as Ariana. Both share a comedic timing that just can’t be taught. Paige and Airana are so confident and yet self-deprecating at the same moment. Paige could easily be an SNL legend.

The RHONJ husbands need an SNL spot

I couldn’t have just one of the Real Housewives of New Jersey husbands. This group is a packaged deal, but their humor and timing are just unmatched. Like the comedians on SNL, the RHONJ husbands have a bond that is extremely hard to break. They banter with one another and have their inside jokes like hitting a gold ball off an ass cheek. Joe Gorga reminds me of a young Chris Kattan. At the same time, Frank Catania is the Will Ferrell of the group. Instead of an SNL Night at the Roxbury, it would be a Night at the Garden State. 

Kyle Cooke would have viewers laughing out loud

What helps Kyle the most when it comes to making viewers laugh is the fact that he hasn’t really grown up. He is forever a kid, but that is endearing when you are working on a sketch show because you can just be yourself. And one thing is for sure the Loverboy creator is unapologetically always himself. He reminds me of Andy Samberg in a way. Both come up with off-the-cuff remarks that end up becoming an epic one-liner. Remember Kyle’s “Summer should be fun!” quote? I bet you Dollars to Donuts Andy could have made that into a Lonely Island song.  

Aesha Scott has fart humor

Here’s 47 seconds of Aesha being Aesha. You’re welcome. #BelowDeckMed

♬ Aesha Unhinged from Below Deck Med – Bravo

Perhaps one of the funniest women on Bravo is Aesha Scott. The yachtie has never backed away from slapstick comedy that would make a toddler giggle. The Chief Stew takes the world of observational humor to a different level. It probably also helps that she is given so much material by being forced to live in small quarters. I still recall Aesha saying, “Please, Poseidon, God of the Ocean, give me stews who know how to do their job.” Honestly, she had me at Poseidon. 

I’m drooling at the idea of a totally Bravocentric SNL episode. Lorne, can we make this happen?

SNL is available to stream on Peacock.

Long Island Medium Theresa Caputo’s Most Shocking Readings

Theresa Caputo is a well-known psychic medium. She first gained fame through her TV show, Long Island Medium, which aired on TLC from 2011 to 2019. In her series, Theresa claimed she could communicate with the dead. Therefore, she began conducting readings for individuals, including celebrities, helping to deliver messages from their deceased loved ones.

Despite criticism from random haters, her show gained popularity quickly, helping Theresa to acquire a large following. She has since written books and appeared on various talk shows to discuss her experiences as a medium. Additionally, Theresa often tours the country, holding live events where she conducts group readings. And now, she has a new series that just debuted on Lifetime, aptly called Theresa Caputo: Raising Spirits.

On Long Island Medium, however, not all readings were equal. During her 14 seasons on the air, Theresa completed several sessions that got us in our feelings. Theresa was spot on, and her words were shocking, as the accuracy scored an 11/10. So let us take this opportunity to reflect on these moments.

Theresa Caputo helped a family connect with their loved one who passed on 9/11

As the daughter of a terminally ill father, this one is equal parts healing and painful to recap. But the bond between a daddy and his little girl is special in some families. In this reading, Theresa popped into a coffee shop only to encounter a skeptic named Emily and her mother, whose loved one desperately wanted to connect.

As Emily explained, she lost her father when she was little. Turning to the mother, Theresa states that her late husband knows of her worries, fixated on whether he suffered during his passing. Theresa then asked if he passed on 9/11, which saw the tears starting to flow from both the mother and her daughter, Emily.

This devoted father worked on the 104th floor of Tower 2. When the first plane hit Tower 1, he phoned his wife, but she was on a call, with no call waiting options. When the mother finally got through, he told her he was okay. He then stated he would talk to her later, but no other calls ever came.

As Theresa explained, even though this wife never got to say goodbye, her late husband heard every word she said that day. Theresa then revealed to Emily that her dad remains by her side. He knows of her trip to Paris, taken almost a decade after his passing. The peace Theresa brought this family was immeasurable, and we know they appreciated this reading.

Theresa Caputo offered hope to a woman whose sister died by suicide

Death by suicide is heartbreaking for all parties involved.

Surprising a broken sister named Kearston, Theresa pulled up to her home in her RV, eager to lend Kearston and her mother a sense of peace. Once she arrived, Theresa connected with their departed loved one, Chrissy. As Kearston cries, she admits that she is angry. Then, Chrissy came through, asking her sister to stop being mad.

After Chrissy passed, Kearston became addicted to reading her journal. But as Theresa explained, Chrissy wants her to toss this private notebook out, as it is holding her back. Theresa then reveals that Chrissy had just stepped forward and kissed Kearston. In doing so, Chrissy also apologized.

But then Theresa asked if Kearston was trying to have a child. Tearing up, she answered yes. Chrissy heard this announcement and said her sister would be a great mom, Theresa said. Immediately, the relief and peace seen in her eyes was evident. This family appreciated this shocking, albeit emotional, reading from Theresa via Chrissy.

Theresa Caputo offers peace to a mother who lost her baby girl

During a group reading on Long Island Medium, Theresa asked the room which person had looked into their loved ones’ eyes after they tragically passed. The cameras then hone in on a teary woman named Bridget. Theresa approached Bridget, asking if she had held her baby girl when she passed away. Barely able to speak, Bridget then nodded as Theresa reminded her that she cradled her girl, telling her all would be okay.

Also growing emotional, Theresa tells Bridget that her “daughter is the happiest” child. Theresa then disclosed that this little girl knows how much her mother worries about her day-to-day dwellings on the other side. Now aged 12, Theresa revealed that this little girl remains with her. And as the woman experienced a silent chill, Theresa knew, telling her this was her daughter’s soul passing through hers.

Now Bridget knows that her stillborn little girl, who looks exactly like her, according to Theresa, is at peace. And peace in the face of a massive loss is priceless.

Emotions overtake Theresa Caputo when her 10-year-old client inquires about his late sister

When Theresa was asked to stop in for a reading with two parents, Renne and Peter, and their 10-year-old son, Matt, she happily obliged. Choking up, Theresa admits that she sees another child, Brooke, and Brooke is speaking to their departed grandparent, AKA the mother of Renne.

Renne smiles through her tears, happy her daughter and mother are together. Then, Theresa acknowledges the song You Are My Sunshine. Right away, her three clients tear up.

Renne pulled out a notecard, revealing they had asked Brooke to acknowledge this song today. Theresa sat stunned, then stated that Brooke thought Matt was the best brother ever. A home video appeared, where we saw a singing and dancing Brooke.

But then Theresa starts sweating. She feels like a blaze caused these deaths. As Renee explains, her daughter and mother passed in a fire. The parents were on vacation, and the children stayed with their grandparents. Matt was present in this fire.

Here, Theresa struggled to speak. Brooke came through, telling Matt she was sorry he had to be there. Theresa also stressed that she saw the grandmother pushing Matt out of the window. Theresa also saw Brooke being held by her grandmother, which is how they were found once help arrived.

The grandmother came through next, asking them to stop feeling guilty. This shocking reading brought life-changing answers to this family on Long Island Medium.

Long Island Medium is streaming on Hulu, TLC, and Discovery +.
