I feel like such a bad person for saying this, but I was really living for the feud between Bethenny Frankel and Luann de Lesseps during the last Real Housewives of New York season. I feel a little guilty being so entertained by the tough times in people’s lives, but then again that is the whole purpose of them being on a reality show.
Although Bethenny can be super harsh, I still think it’s strange that Luann is so mad at Bethenny for letting her know that husband-to-be Tom D’Agostino was making out with another women just a week after they got engaged. So obviously, Bethenny is not getting invited to that wedding, not that she would want to go anyway.

It’s obvious The Countess is very sensitive when it comes to her public image. She seemed more upset about people finding out that Tom cheated on her than by him actually cheating on her. In my opinion, hating on Bethenny was just a scapegoat to escape the real issue at hand: Tom being shady as hell.
Obviously if this was one hundred percent real life, Lu and Bethenny would have nothing to do with each other, but since they are costars on the same reality show, I wonder if the Skinnygirl founder would go to Luann’s wedding. Surprisingly, she would attend, but only based on two (hilarious) conditions.

In an interview with People, Bethenny talked about her feud with Luann – obviously – but the thing that really struck me wasn’t the comments about Luann shooting the messenger that we’ve all heard and read before. Rather, it was when Bethenny was asked if she would go to Luann and Tom’s wedding.
Bethenny said, “I would go to Luann’s for a very steep appearance fee.”
I don’t even think that was a joke. And I’m sure that Bravo executives actually would pay for Bethenny to be present and share her commentary on what is bound to be a ridiculously over-the-top wedding.
Not only did Bethenny say that, but she also added, “I would gladly sponsor the wedding with alcohol. And I will gladly take – now because I am sponsoring the wedding – a discounted appearance fee.”

I’m dead. I know that Bethenny’s sense of humor is not for everyone, but that comment made me laugh so much. I would laugh so much to see Luann and Tom exchanging vows in front of a step-and-repeat with the Skinnygirl logo all over it.
I feel like Luann is the type of Housewife to want her wedding on Bravo, so I wouldn’t be shocked if part of that would be requiring her to have the Real Housewives of New York cast members present. That’s what I would love to see and I hope it happens.

It's been nearly 30 years since Mel Gibson and Eddie Murphy teamed up as odd couple cop duo Riggs and Murtaugh--which means that plenty of people who might tune in to Fox's updated TV...
Kiefer Sutherland is going from saving the country to running it for ABC's Designated Survivor. He's hanging up his Jack Bauer gun and comfortable running clothes for some presidential...In the final Big Brother spoilers from the Live Feeds before they went dark for the end of the season, newbie player Paul Abrahamian warned veteran player Nicole Franzel that if she betrays their Final Two deal — he will refused to vote for her to win.
This threat comes on the heels of Nicole secretly whispering to the Big Brother Live Feeds viewers that she is very much considering going back on that deal and taking fellow veteran James Huling to the final two if she gets the chance.
Nicole Franzel and Paul Abrahamian have been acting like the best of buddies, both guaranteeing each other that they locked into a Final Two deal season 18. If Paul wins the final round of the last Head of Household Competition, he has promised Nicole he will take her to the end, and vice-versa. However, Nicole has revealed in secret camera talk to the Live Feeds watchers that she has serious doubts about her ability to win in the Final Two against Paul.
On Tuesday, around 5:30 PM BBT in the Lounge, Nicole told the viewers that while she would have stuck with her “ride or die” Corey Brooks until the end, she’s not feeling this Final Two deal with Paul may be the best game decision. (It’s not!) In counting up her possible Jury votes, she thinks it’s not looking so good for her in that scenario.
A bit later, Nicole once again camera talks again from her bed, saying that she does not believe she can beat Paul if she is in front of the Jury with him. In fact, she says she’d vote for him over herself if she was a Jury member! She whispers that “he” (we are assuming Paul from the context) is “not dumb” and surely must know she wouldn’t take him, and she doesn’t think he would really take her to the end either, so she doesn’t know why she’s feeling guilty about it.
No, Paul is not dumb, and he totally must know that it would be a better game move for Nicole to take James to the Final Two if she wins the last phase of the final Head of Household Competition. Which is why he finally just got very direct with Nicole last night just after 9:20 PM BBT. After joking about making a ‘blood pact’ on their Final Two deal, Paul gets down to a nitty gritty discussion about how he would feel about Nicole betraying him and taking James to the end instead, and that it would result in her losing his Jury vote.
“If you just straight up screw me over like that you would probably never hear from me again in my life. Out of straight up just you are not a respectable player in my opinion,” Paul said. He went on to say that if he were to betray Nicole by taking James instead of her, then he certainly would not expect her to vote for him in the Jury because that would be stupid. Basically, pretty much making it clear that if she betrays him that way, he won’t be “stupid” and vote for her after he turned on her.
In counting her votes repeatedly over the past few days, Nicole feels like she may need Paul and Victor to vote for her if she is going to win over James. There is a good chance that Paul and Victor might vote against her if she betrays Paul in the end by lying to him and then not taking him to the Final Two. Even though, really, it would be the best game move for Nicole as she is far more likely to win over James than Paul with most of the rest of the Jury votes.
If Paul and Victor did vote against Nicole, it would be a nasty and bitter Jury move that didn’t reflect who had the better game play between James and Nicole, especially in the end. Even so, in a match up between James and Nicole, we’d still have to give it to Nicole, because James really did very little of anything all season long to earn the win for himself.

Survivors ready? It’s about that time folks, as the world’s greatest Reality TV competition show is back for its 33rd go-around. Wednesday night, Survivor: Millennials vs. Gen-X begins (gee thanks CBS, for the short title this season…that will be fun typing out over and over!), with a 90-minute Premiere Episode.
I’m here to get you primed and ready for tonight’s episode and for this season as a whole. So whether you are an oldie-but-goodie Gen-Xer (like me!), an entitled Millennial brat (I kid…sorta), or a Baby Boomer still trying to figure out how to work your DVR, there’s truly something for everybody this season on Survivor… so let’s dive right in as to what you can expect not only from Jeff Probst and company, but from this column.
CLICK THE CONTINUE READING BUTTON BELOW!
First off, I’m new to RealityTea and damn happy and honored to be on-board covering Survivor exclusively for the site. I thought it appropriate to introduce myself and give you a little background, just so you know who the heck it is you’re reading. I’ve been a mega-fan of Survivor from the very first episode of Season 1 back in 2000 (yes, it’s been that long), and have covered Survivor professionally since Season 20, Heroes vs. Villains. I’ve seen every single episode of every single season. Ever.
I’ve appeared as a guest on Rob Cesternino‘s Rob Has a Podcast and I landed an exclusive interview with Richard Hatch during his tax evasion battle years back. I’ve since interviewed every “who’s who” of Survivor, from Hatch to Sandra Diaz-Twine, to Russell Hantz, to Cochran to Coach.
Proudest of all, I’m one of the few members of the press included in the Executive Voting Committee for the Survivor Hall of Fame. Yes, for a nerdy little Italian dude who used to wear a Survivor: Marquesas buff around a college campus, I now have an official vote alongside the likes of Jeff Probst, Dalton Ross, Gordon Holmes and other Survivor producers and press members, in naming those that should be considered the best to over play the game.
I love the game of Survivor, I love everything about it. I’m fanatic about it. To show my dedication, I am writing this article now as my wife prepares to give birth to our very first child, a child that I have jokingly called “Jeff Probst Santilli” throughout the pregnancy. How cool is it that he/she (we haven’t found out the sex) will most likely be a Survivor baby…born on the day of the Premiere Episode of Season 33 of Survivor.
Speaking of that Premiere, there’s a lot to look at ahead of tonight’s big ep. I’m going to walk you through everything you need to know.
So Season 33 is “Millennials vs. Gen-X,” shot in Fiji this past Summer, and much will be made about the generational gap dividing up the initial 20 castaways. 10 Millennials will make up the “Vanua” Tribe (wearing blue buffs) and 10 Gen-Xers will make up the “Takali” Tribe (wearing orange).
RELATED: MEET THE CAST OF “SURVIVOR: MILLENNIALS VS. GEN-X!
But before we get any further, let’s discuss just what these tribes seem to represent. Millennials are the “me” generation, a group of individuals to the fullest extent of the word “individuals.” They don’t like to be categorized, they like to be thought of as independents. Older generations call them “entitled,” “spoiled,” or “lazy.” Gen Xers were also called the “me” generation in fact, but their individualistic upbringing was a bit different…they are more practical-minded (as opposed to the optimism inherent in the Millennials) and they flat-out rejected the establishment (wherein the Millennials often seek to re-write the rules). Similar, as seen from the point-of-view of earlier generations, but unique in the worlds in which they were raised. Or as Jeff Probst says, Gen-Xers built this current world, and the Millennials just have some different ideas as to how it should be ran.
All of this, of course, was just an excuse to skew younger. This season, in fact, is rare in that the concept was developed before it was cast…usually with Survivor, a cast is built and then a concept is derived based on the make-up of those involved. But even though this season was built backwards, Probst has gone on record in saying that it is in fact one of the better seasons of strategic gameplay, and that everybody this season “came here to play the game.”
Speaking of “playing the game,” Season 33 will shake things up with a new twist involving hidden immunity idols. Jeff Probst told EW.com: “One of my favorite twists is what we do with the idols,” says Probst. “Somebody had an idea on how to hide idols in nature and it’s brilliant. And it’s really fun because you’re going to get a clue and it’s gonna say, yes, there’s an idol somewhere down here amongst these shells. Good luck. And you’re gonna look out on a beach full of shells and you will not be able to figure out which one has it. How could a shell possibly have an idol? You just gotta work. You gotta think.”
As always, weather and conditions will play a factor in the outcome, and fans will see inclement weather impact the game in the very first episode, when a typhoon leads to a full evacuation of the island only two days into the game. It’s the first time the game was stopped due to weather, or that a tribe (or in this case, both tribes) was evacuated for safety reasons. According to Probst, the reaction from both tribes to the evacuation speaks volumes about the generational gap that headlines this season.
Does anyone dare to predict a winner? I definitely will take part in this fruitless task, but never before a season starts…let’s all take in the Premiere Episode – Wednesday night at 8 pm on CBS – and check back in next week on those.
Then be sure to check back here following the episode, and follow me on Twitter, @tomsantilli, as I will return to post my first official recap/analysis article for RealityTea. Most of the time, you can expect my recap to be posted by midnight EST following each broadcast, but with a baby due any minute here, forgive me if this first one gets up a little later than what will eventually be the norm.
I look forward to a great season and can’t wait to chat about Survivor with you all through the Fall! And if you’re looking for even more Survivor news, check out SurvivorFever, too, one of my favorite Survivor sites.

Most of the Teen Mom and Teen Mom 2 viewers have been following these girls since their days on 16 & Pregnant. And at this point, the fans are super invested in their stories, so it’s not enough to watch episodes that were taped months before. The devoted watchers want to know what’s going on right now with these women and their families. And that’s why I’m sure they’re all thankful for social media.
Most recently, Jenelle Evans shared a sonogram pic with her followers and her man David Eason posted a photo of her baby bump. Clearly things are going very well with this pregnancy and both parents are super excited. And I’m sure that Jenelle’s fans feel the same way.

Even though Jenelle’s face is missing from the shot above, her burgeoning baby bump is on full display in the photo that David put up on Instagram and that’s what I’m sure the fans are focusing on. David also had a simple, yet sweet, caption for the pic: “So beautiful.” Aaaww. Very cute, but not too much. Definitely the appropriate amount of cuteness here – at least in my opinion.
Jenelle posted a picture of the baby girl’s sonogram on Instagram with the caption, “She’s so perfect already” complete with the appropriate baby girl themed emojis, of course. And although there is no further info, it seems like the baby girl is healthy based on the enthusiasm with the sonogram photo and caption (not that I’m a baby expert or anything), which is obviously what’s most important here.

Shannon believes Donna’s comments were premeditated, and she planned to come on Real Housewives Of Orange County to embarrass Shannon.
Shannon tweeted that before the LOCK performance, her daughters were warned by Donna to expect drama, so this is why she and David were discussing it with the girls in the limo after the show – cause ordinarily Shannon would never be inappropriate with her kids.
CLICK THE CONTINUE READING BUTTON FOR MORE!
“Kids cut off in car home,” Shannon tweeted. “Told us their grandmother went up to each of them saying ‘no matter happens tonight I love you’ #planned #RHOC.”
Shannon blames editing for twisting the situation, tweeting, “They cut off the kids telling us in the car.”
The real question is who helped Donna orchestrate all of this… was she acting alone?
Apparently the LOCK show is not the only time Donna has been badmouthing Shannon to people she doesn’t know. A viewer had unfortunate run-in Donna, as well.
“Wow…” reacted Shannon on Instagram.
Shannon maintains that her outburst after hearing about Donna’s comments had “nothing to do with the affair” but instead stemmed many years of a frustration with David’s mother.
“It has to do with the fact that no matter how hard I try, my husband’s family doesn’t give two hoots about me. And it hurts,” Shannon explains to the Daily Dish. “My relationship has been volatile with my in-laws from the beginning. I’ve had good, very good, periods with David’s mother, and then they’re down here.”
Shannon describes Donna’s comment as “gut-wrenching” and untrue. “I didn’t make my husband do anything; he did it. So for his mother [to say that] when I’ve continually made efforts, it’s hard.”
Donna’s timing is also a major point of contention – the LOCK show took place two weeks after Shannon and David’s vow renewal. Donna spent time with the kids while Shannon and David took their second honeymoon.
So why would Donna publicly embarrass Shannon? She has no idea, but she doesn’t believe Donna “wanted to be on [RHOC]” with her comments, she just hates Shannon that much! “I think that she wanted to say something that was negative against me.”
“I’m not gonna let that one woman take it down,” insists Shannon. “I’m not going to give her the satisfaction of thinking that she accomplished what she wanted. I don’t know what her goals were, but I don’t think they were positive or kind.”
After the incident, David cut off relations with his mother in a text which read, “Done. You have hurt my family. You’ve hurt me by doing this, and I can’t have you continue on like this.” Shannon says that was totally his decision. “I have to respect my husband. It’s his family.”
As for a possible resolution in the future, Shannon and David aren’t sure. “So we don’t really talk about it. We’re both avoiders.”
“I’m not gonna keep throwing myself in the lions’ den. I’m kind of over it,” Shannon concludes.
In other tidbits, Shannon says producers asked her daughters to write a song for Real Housewives Of Orange County and she is not a stage mom!
Shannon isn’t mad at Tamra Judge for telling her about Donna’s accusations at the LOCK show, and they’re super close.
Shannon also further justified her decision not to check on Vicki Gunvalson in the hospital, and put her on blast for pretending to be ‘alone’ at the hospital , because producers were with her. “It’s not fake,” she tweeted, “But of course they would never let Vicki be alone. We knew she was with someone.”

It’s clear Scheana Marie Shay puts a lot of effort into taking care of herself and that she has pride in her appearance. She really does try hard to stay fit and be nutritious. That’s why it was extremely disheartening when Instagram followers skinny shamed the Vanderpump Rules star after she posted about using Hydroxycut to help her reach her body goals.
After that rude fiasco, Scheana decided to disable the comment option on her latest post related to the weight loss supplement.
CLICK “CONTINUE READING” FOR MORE!
The comments got way out of hand on Scheana’s last Instagram post that referenced Hydroxycut, so I would not be shocked if that’s why she decided to remove the comment function from her latest Instagram post. Everyone knows that reality stars and other celebrities use Instagram to make a quick buck by endorsing products, so I don’t get why anyone is surprised that someone who takes such great care of herself is endorsing a diet supplement.
I also don’t get why anyone would actually post negative comments on another human being’s personal photos. Not to mention that commenting on someone’s body and calling her “too skinny” and declaring her “unhealthy” is crossing boundaries, especially for strangers who don’t even know Scheana.
RELATED: Stassi Crashed Tom Schwartz and Katie Maloney’s Honeymoon?!
Scheana did not not address her decision to remove the comments on her Instagram or Twitter, but it seems like a logical assumption that she got rid of them due to the backlash she has previously received.
I understand why Scheana decided to get rid of the comments section on that one post, but I feel bad that she actually felt like she had to do that. I of all people get what it’s like to get super invested in reality TV and feel like these people are are all friends in my head, but I do not actually know them (even though I wish I did). I wish people stopped putting people down on social media so Scheana would not feel the need to remove the comments. If people do not support what she is posting, then they should unfollow her and not look. There is zero need to skinny shame a total stranger with hateful comments.

Only one more Big Brother 18 Head of Household competition stands in the way of Nicole Franzel, James Huling, or Paul Abrahamian winning the season. According to Dr. Will Kirby, the Big Brother jury still seems conflicted on who should win Big Brother 2016. At the moment, it’s anyone’s game.
Paul won the first part of the final Big Brother Head of Household competition. Nicole won the second part. Live on Wednesday night, they face off to see who gets the finale Big Brother 18 Head of Household title. Then they must choose who to take with them.
History dictates that the final part of the Head of Household competition will be the usual guess what the jurors said competition. Players must guess between two answers. The player to guess the most answers correctly wins.
Since Big Brother 15, Big Brother amplified this round by having it done on a scales of justice platform (and titled “Scales of Just Us”). We expect Big Brother to continue with this setting.
Nicole and Paul have won a similar number of competitions. They also have shown the capability to win mental competitions. So they are about evenly matched going into the finals. This competition is a little unpredictable because sometimes it comes down to who can guess the best.
The only skill associated with this competition is how well you got to know your fellow houseguests. Nicole spent a lot of time with Corey Brooks, which hindered her from developing strong relationships with many of the other players.Paul, at least, made more of an effort to get to know as many players as possible.
During the final four head of Household competition, Nicole and Paul tied. That competition involved how much they paid attention to what their housemates said. So we can look at that competition as an indicator of how well Paul and Nicole might do in this one.
We expect the results of the final HOH competition to be close, with only one or two question separating the winner from the loser.
Paul has a slight advantage because he made a little more effort to get to know the jurors. He also has better people perception skills.
We believe that Paul will win the final Head of Household competition, and take Nicole with him to the Big Brother 18 finals.

In the TV criminal justice system, ripped-from-the-headlines episodes are considered especially juicy. The Law & Order franchise is basically synonymous with commenting on real-life...Big Brother fans rejoice. The grand finale is finally here, and the winner of Big Brother 18 will be crowned this evening and will walk away with one half of a million dollars. Not so bad for 99 days of work. The final three houseguests (HG) are Nicole Franzel, James Huling, and Paul Abrahamian. The 90 minute finale begins at 8/7 PM Central so make sure the popcorn is ready to go.
Big Brother Final Three Cast Members (Photo Courtesy of Big Brother)
Diehard Big Brother fans must be going through withdrawal as the last full episode was aired last Friday evening, resulting in five full days without seeing Julie Chen, our beloved host. That is the longest we have gone all summer without seeing Julie. Tonight’s episode will pick up where Friday’s episode left off, the final three HGs were just beginning to compete in round one of the three-round final Head of Household (HOH) competition.
The first round’s competition was called ‘Hang in There Kitty’ and was an endurance comp for the HGs while dressed like cute little kittens. Endurance comps have been in James’ wheelhouse this season and also during season 16, but Nicole did pull out an endurance comp win this summer (albeit when James purposely fell off the wall giving Nicole the victory). Paul has performed very well in comps over the summer, so he can’t easily be counted out as a possible winner either. All three rounds of the HOH competition should be very competitive between James, Nicole, and Paul. We shouldn’t expect any one of them to run away with the HOH win easily.
Once the final HOH is crowned tonight, their duty will be to chose which HG to take with them to the final phase of the competition, the jury vote. Both of the remaining HGs will plead their cases to the jury as to why they deserve to win the $500,000. Of course, the HOH winner should take the HG that they feel they have the best shot at beating in votes from the jury. Rarely has it been beneficial to take a strong player to the final vote, but Derrick showed us that his word and loyalty to Cody was more important than taking the weaker Victoria to the jury vote. That decision won Derrick $500,000, but his decision is the rare exception to the rule.
Other prizes will be awarded tonight as well. America’s Favorite Player (AFP) will be announced based on the votes each HG received from fans at the CBS website. Important to note, James Huling won AFP for his gameplay during the Big Brother 16 season. The winner of AFP receives a very respectable $25,000 for their efforts and likability by the fans. Rumors running around cyberspace put Victor Arroyo firmly in the lead for winning AFP based on his record-breaking three evictions and two wins of the Battleback competitions. Even Julie Chen has weighed in on this vote, and she definitely agrees Victor deserves the AFP title this season. Big Brother also gives the second place HG a consolation prize of $50,000 which isn’t too shabby. That amount is only 1/10 of the winners spoils, but it’s more than most of the HGs make in one year at this point in their young careers.
The most important note about tonight’s finale is the history that could be made in the world of Big Brother. In the 18 years of the show’s existence, never has a female beaten out a male at the final two to take home the $500,000 prize. That could very well happen this evening if Nicole makes it to the final two. In addition, a female HG has not won the Big Brother title since Rachel Reilly won back in BB 13. Needless to say, a female winner is overdue, but many fans have not been shy to share their discontent with Nicole’s ‘snake-like’ battle plan this season. Lucky for Nicole, the fans do not decide the winner, only the jury comprised of her former HGs can make that decision if, and only if, she makes it to the final two.
99 days, the longest season in Big Brother history, have flown past us this summer. Tonight all those hours of watching Big Brother After Dark, all those tweets sent out questioning why Jozea could honestly believe he was the ‘Messiah of the Newbies’, and all the laughs when Big Meech or Paulie Calafiore broke down into tears over inconsequential happenings in the house will come to fruition and a new Big Brother title will be awarded to Nicole, James, or Paul. Lucky for us, we do not have to wait another nine months for the next season of Big Brother to begin like we have in year’s past. We only have to wait one week to watch Big Brother: Over the Top on CBS AllAccess to get our Big Brother fix. Until then…may the best HG win.

I felt so awkward watching the last episode of Real Housewives of Orange County. As much as I could tell that Shannon Beador’s mother-in-law loves her grand kids, it was definitely in poor taste for her to shit talk Shannon to Kelly Dodd and Tamra Judge – both of whom she had just met that day. It made an already tense situation even worse for the family. Also, it was bad timing for Kelly, who just finally found herself on good terms with Shannon.
It is obvious that Kelly tried hard to calm down the situation and to comfort the mother-in-law, assuring her that Shannon has no animosity, but the woman was totally out of control. She caused a lot of unnecessary drama and put Kelly in an awkward spot in her already-fragile friendship with Shannon.

Aside from feeling bad for Shannon, I couldn’t help feeling sorry for Kelly. She was really calm, cool, and nice, so it’s a shame that she ended up getting caught in the middle of someone else’s drama. As expected, Kelly shared her side of the story in her latest Bravo blog.
Kelly tried to be diplomatic, “Every family’s dynamics are different, but Shannon’s admission and her reaction to having the girls’ grandmother and aunt at their special event struck me as odd. Regardless, it wasn’t my business and I did not want to learn any more about their relationship. I was there to see a show, not drama.”
Yes. Go, Kelly. Maybe she’s maturing or something. She really had nothing to do with the drama at a big event- for once.
Then Kelly tried to explain that she saw both sides of the story, “When Donna calls me by my name, it’s because she had been speaking to me during the girls’ set. So, when you see Shannon saying, I was expecting Donna to be complimenting my daughters, I can tell you that Donna was.” Well, yeah. Bravo showing the grandma complimenting the girls was not going to make for any sort of interesting story line.

Kelly defended herself in regard to getting caught up in the Beador drama: “Now, contrary to what you may think, I didn’t want to get involved in Shannon’s family soap opera. Without picking sides, I can tell you what I saw and heard. To me, Donna’s emotions seemed genuine. She was telling me that Shannon does not allow her to see her grandchildren, which made me really sad because I know how important my Jolie is to my Mom and vice-versa.”
Eeeekkk. I get the point that Kelly was trying to make, but detailing that the negative picture that this woman painted of Shannon is not going to do anything for her relationship with Shannon. I have no idea if Shannon read this, but if she did, I’m sure that she is SEETHING.
I honestly don’t think that Kelly is trying to instigate controversy and I think she was trying to be fair to both sides this one time, but this whole ordeal is just so very awkward.
This comment that Kelly wrote made me pretty sad: “When I saw Shannon and David [Beador] explaining to their children in the car ride home what had happened, I felt terrible for the girls. The car ride should have been celebratory and fun, not depressing. The girls rocked the house.”
I hate to say this, but at the very least the Beador girls got a little bit of extra publicity for their band. Sadly, that came at the price of a lot of sad family drama, but no family is perfect and if anyone tells you otherwise, they’re lying.
