Is casting already underway for Big Little Lies season two?! OK, we're sorry to get your hopes up, as HBO has yet to officially announce the miniseries that everyone was obsessed with...
Two episodes in and the main story line from Real Housewives of Dallas Season 2 is the discord between Brandi Redmond and Stephanie Hollman. Other than that, pretty much nothing is happening, and that means the rest of the cast (including Cary Deuber) is caught in the middle.
Cary has tried to stay neutral, but it’s been clear that she’s become super close with Stephanie while LeeAnne Locken (of all people) is a the MVP of Team Brandi. Other than this story line and the continued introduction of the new cast members, the only other thing that happened- other than a super random dog costume contest- was Cary’s husband Mark Deuber was nominated for some sort of style award. Hopefully the season picks up from this point on….
Unfortunately for Cary, her husband’s enthusiasm for style has been met with a lot of criticism. She discussed this and shut down the haters in her Bravo blog. She wrote, “I can also already anticipate the nasty remarks; not masculine; not normal? NOT your business! Why do I even have to mention he’s not gay? Are the trolls out there really going to try to sell that as an insult? Let’s shut that down right now. It’s not cool… Change your viewpoint. Listen, it is immeasurably ignorant to say someone is ‘gay’ because they like style or art. We all have plenty of friends WHO HAVE great fashion sense and plenty who don’t. It has nothing to do with sexual preference and is very offensive and small-minded to think that way (let alone spew it directly at people like it even matters).” Good for Cary. It’s honestly ridiculous for people to equate fashion savvy with sexuality- yet it does happen all the time, unfortunately.
After that rant, Cary addressed the only other main story line this season: “When it comes to the Brandi Redmond and Stephanie Hollman confrontation, it was very difficult to sit in my position and not choose sides. Even though I saw myself potentially getting pulled into another non-existent issue with a hot dog, I chose to stand my ground and keep my mouth shut while these two long time friends finally had a moment to speak.” Obviously the “hot dog” Cary mentioned is LeeAnne. Brandi continued, “It’s like I said before, why take on extra conflict?”
Cary wrote, “I desperately didn’t want to be in the middle of that; but it felt like Brandi was the one who was actually putting me there.” She also explained the problem that Brandi had with her social media activity: “Brandi’s major frustration is over me calling Stephanie my ‘ride or die’ this summer in a Tweet? Um… It was a cycling charity event for domestic violence survivors that Stephanie invited me to. Girl…’Ride or die’ was the event hashtag to publicize the event… a -cycling- charity event at Soulcycle… like ride or die literally meant ride a bike to raise money for a shelter so someone doesn’t die from domestic violence.” That caption makes perfect sense given that it was for a cycling event. Oh Brandi….
Cary continued, “But now a little jealousy is getting in the way of Brandi’s friendship with Stephanie that long outdated mine? Sounds like a reach. That combined with the fact that I’m sure Stephanie tried to get Brandi there, too, and she simply chose not to come. I really wasn’t sure what to say in that moment when I realized that my friendship with Stephanie was somehow affecting Brandi (and we’re all friends!).”
She recalled, “When Brandi brought up the whole text-gate thing, I got upset because I really do care about Brandi and Stephanie and didn’t want to get in the middle of whatever mess they were dealing with. To this day, I still don’t get it. And I should not have to. It’s their friendship- I didn’t think it was right to involve myself or allow myself to get pulled in.” Yet, that’s how this franchise works. Everyone is more or less obligated to discuss each other’s business. Sorry, Cary.
She explained, “At that moment, with all of the feelings that Brandi explained to me, I was a little crushed and lost my cool because it seemed at that point impossible to just be a supportive friend from the sidelines and not end up with an irrelevant issue of my own to deal with. That really sucks because, while I love my girlfriends, it started to become apparent in that moment that I just I can’t be friends with everyone.” Nope, not on Real Housewives. It’s pretty much impossible to be friends with everyone, let alone on a reality TV show.
On tonight’s episode we continue to watch the Brandi/Stephanie drama unfold, with a possible re-appearance of LeeAnne’s special brand of crazy. “Brandi and Stephanie make an attempt to repair their broken friendship, but after so much damage, it may be too late. With no experience parenting, D’Andra tries her best not to be an evil stepmother when Jeremy’s 20-year-old son moves in. And LeeAnne’s latest anger management session doesn’t prevent her from showing up at Stephanie’s Halloween party dressed to kill.”

The Real Housewives of Orange County star Vicki Gunvalson may be busy launching loads of random products for her fans to consume, but she also manages to blog her personal analyzations of co-star and former bestie Tamra Judge in her spare time.
She starts off her latest blog by pondering Tamra’s issues with deflection and her inability to accept blame. “Watching Tamra talk with her mom about her lacking in communication skills is exactly what I have experienced with her as well. Tamra blaming everyone else and not taking accountability for her own actions is typical. I’m so tired of Tamra constantly talking about how “I ATTACKED HER MARRIAGE”, because she knows it is the farthest thing from the truth. She is focused on this to attempt to get others to be on her side and to take the focus off of her own issues. The fact is the fact. I didn’t attack her marriage – I want her happy. But the truth is, I don’t want to continue to talk about it publicly or privately because I don’t care one way or another. Tamra is the one who keeps bringing it up, not me. I don’t care about it – it’s dead to me.”
Vicki blogs that she is convinced that Tamra is unhappy and “as usual, Tamra is projecting to attempt to influence others.” She adds, “I am going to tread lightly here because, as Kelly and all of us know, when Tamra perceives somebody is “talking about her family” she gets livid. However, since TAMRA MADE HER FAMILY ISSUES A FOCAL POINT, I think I understand how Tamra’s attitude, vitriol, and behavior towards “family” affects our relationship. She seems to be always MAD all the time. If it’s not with me, it’s with someone else.”

She touches on Tamra‘s admitted history with ostracizing those she loves, “Now, with me, at one time her closest friends, her virtual sister, she is ostracizing me. Lashing out. Perpetuating her lie that I lied. Anything to hurt the person she perceives hurt her. Tamra said, “in my head, Vicki is dead”. Sound familiar? What did I really do to her? Did my ex BF really have that much of an impact on her life? Is it life altering to her that I had a private conversation about Eddie with Kelly? Did I steal from her, murder someone or do something unethical? NO! I repeated a rumor that was already out there. Enough! Why can’t she let it go? DEFLECTION!!”
She thinks Tamra is trying to spin things to get people on her side and to continue bringing up the whole Brooks/cancer debacle. “Towards the end of the episode in the wake for her browbeating Peggy, Tamra says “she is pissed”. Then in the limo with Shannon when she is spinning what happened she repeats her big lie again, that I lied about “Brooks having cancer”. Why is she so fixated on this? I have explained over and over again about my past relationship with him and she doesn’t want to hear or listen to me. What benefit did I get by this so called “lie”? Hasn’t she read his statements that I HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH HIM REVEALING HIS FALSE RECORDS…THAT WAS 100% HIS DOING. I have lost three loved ones in the recent past from cancer and it’s disgusting to hear her keep saying this. Well, now I’m pissed too. A lie about a lie is still a lie. I can’t figure out why they are SO fixated on him!! I am the one who was hurt, I am the one who lost time and money by dating him which I will never get back. They lost NOTHING on his shenanigans. I’ll never know why he did what he did, but it’s been over 2 1/2 years and I’m trying to move on. Every time I hear them mention his name it makes me sick to my stomach. MOVE ON!!!”
Vicki is tired of Tamra‘s projections, “My sentiments to Tamra are this: Stop trying to turn my friends against me. Stop trying to destroy my life with your accusations. Stop projecting your insecurities and bitterness on me. Stop lying about me and please let’s move on!”
She gets a few religious digs in before she’s done, “I hope that Tamra sincerely starts trying to truly live the Christian life she professes she does. She needs to start by opening her heart, forgive, and put all this negativity behind and stop dwelling on things that are not true. Once she does, I am sure she will be much happier and then hopefully we can be back to being friends. I can have “hope” now can’t I?”
On tonight’s episode of The Real Housewives of Orange County, “Vicki gets green with envy when she learns that Kelly is planning on celebrating St. Patrick’s Day with Shannon and Meghan. Peggy learns that something got lost in translation between her and Tamra at the Nobleman Launch Party. Lydia ponders if her son’s dreadful prophecy will come true as she competes in a Spartan Race with Tamra, Eddie, Doug and David. Meghan hopes Irish eyes will be a smilin’ upon Shannon and Kelly as they engage in a heavy pour of whiskey and whimsy.”
The drunk-fest kicks off at 9/8 C, so join us back here in the comments so we can all live-snark the mess together!

After two seasons of defending Tom D’Agostino’s shady tactics, Luann de Lesseps finally announced that the couple is divorcing… after a mere seven months of marriage. As sad as that is for her- everyone who watches Real Housewives of New York knows how much she reveled in being a newlywed- it’s also pretty disappointing for the viewers because the announcement came right after the reunion was taped.
That means that the viewers have to sit through three one-hour episodes of Lu going to bat for Tom even though we all know better. Luckily Luann will be doing a one-on-one interview with Andy Cohen to address the divorce since most of the information “revealed” at the reunion has become outdated and irrelevant.
An article from People reveals that Luann shared the final straw that broke the marriage during her interview with Andy. Luann admitted, “It was the weekend before the reunion [aired], basically. Tom went out and he called up an old girlfriend and they met up with a group of people. And I didn’t know about it — I found out about it the next day in the press.” Damn. Page Six really is the honorary cast member at this point because, once again, the publication was the one to call out Tom for being shady as hell and “flirting” with “an attractive blonde.”
I have no idea what was so different about that than every other report of Tom and other women, but Luann declared, “That for me was like, the final straw. I was like, ‘I can’t do this anymore.’ ”
Luann also addressed the report that she slapped Tom in a restaurant. Previously Luann dismissed the story and categorized the claim as a symptom of their “passionate relationship” and even dubbed it as a “love tap,” but of course Andy asked about it again now that Lu and Tom are divorcing.
Still, she insists, “I didn’t slap him. What I did was grab his face. It was in the heat of the moment and I was hurt about something. I wanted his attention and I grabbed his face. It wasn’t really a slap.”
I guess we will never really know. If only the Bravo cameras were rolling all year round. Then we would have clarity! Unfortunately that will never happen, but Luann’s interview with Andy does air on September 6 and hopefully she is more forthcoming than she has been in the past. The fandom needs it after sitting through a three-part reunion with the former countess relentlessly defending the Regency’s most beloved customer.

Although Cynthia Bailey has been slaying it on Real Housewives of Atlanta with her hairstyles and eye-wear line, her personal life hasn’t exactly been thriving. After a few seasons of a rocky relationship with ex Peter Thomas, the two finally divorced. Then they were hanging out a lot (as “friends”) and getting a long better than ever before, which was super confusing to watch.
Now it seems like Cynthia has finally put the Peter era behind her because she has a new man….allegedly.
There’s no word on how serious Cynthia’s new relationship is, but she is supposedly dating a man named Will Jones according to an article from BET. The same article describes will as a “motivational speaker and entrepreneur” and says that he knows Cynthia through the new RHOA cast member America’s Next Top Model alum Eva Marcille’s boyfriend.
Cynthia hasn’t confirmed the romance, but she did just post their photo together, so at the very least they are Instagram official. She put up a close up of the (most likely) couple and just captioned it with his Instagram handle: “@mr.willj.”
And after a glance on his page, it’s clear that even if he isn’t officially Cynthia’s boyfriend, he is definitely a Cynthia supporter since he posted on August 18, 2017 about Cynthia selling her sunglasses on QVC. He wrote, “So proud of @cynthiabailey10 !!!! Make sure you catch this talented and passionate entrepreneur promote her product on QVC!”
There’s no official confirmation on the coupling, but Cynthia’s fans will definitely have their eyes peeled on both of their social media accounts and if there’s nothing else posted, then all will (most likely) be revealed whenever Real Housewives of Atlanta returns for Season 10.

Kevin Schlehuber was an inch away from having his Big Brother 19 game end early. If anyone else held this week’s Head of Household and Veto powers, we could have seen him walk out those Big Brother doors and into the jury house on Thursday. Luckily for Kevin, he had garnered enough goodwill with current Head of Household Jason Dent. This goodwill and friendship spared him from the block and the end of his game. Kevin’s good fortune means bad news for Raven Walton and Matt Clines.
Matt and Raven are the last members of the showmance alliance, and the last members of the original Cody Nickson alliance (not counting Paul Abrahamian and Christmas Abbott, who were never really in it according to Cody). This makes them easy targets for. The Big Brother 19 house. The remaining players really want to see one member of the showmance gone this week.
Today, Jason planned to not use the Power of Veto. Raven and Matt promised to go crazy if he didn’t stick to his promise. We really hope they stick to this promise, because it could provide some much needed post Power of Veto entertainment.
So did Jason use this week’s Big Brother 19 Power of Veto on Raven or Matt?
MAJOR SPOILERS AHEAD. PROCEED WITH CAUTION.
******************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
Of course not. Jason kept the nominations the same. This means either Raven or Matt leaves the Big Brother 19 house on Thursday.

Luann de Lesseps is ready to clear the air. As E! News reported, the Real Housewives of New York City star has sat down with Watch What Happens Live! host Andy Cohen at her home in Sag...Is a Real Housewife even a Real Housewife if she doesn’t slap her name on a million business ventures? Apparently not. Even someone like Vicki Gunvalson who actually has a legitimate and successful insurance business is all about the side businesses.
Vicki has been a full-time cast member on Real Housewives of Orange County for the entire run of the show and she actually does have a real company, so it’s strange that she of all people would delve into all of these random (and usually unsuccessful ventures). From the bacon- flavored vodka, to the failed charity, to the app, and everything in between, none of it really makes any sense. Yet here she is again with another brilliant business proposition.
Vicki recently announced that she is breaking into Kylie Jenner territory by selling lipsticks and lip glosses, but she’s not done trying to make her mark in the reality TV beauty industry. Now Vicki is launching another business that no one asked for: a skincare line.
Vicki shared the news with her followers on Instagram. She wrote, “Had another successful day of meetings with @officialkencollis and @volanteskincare . So much to be grateful for. Stay tuned for information on my launch party in Beverly Hills 9/28. #askandyoushallreceive #rhoc #bravo#businesswoman #season12 #inspiration” But why?
She is a popular reality TV cast member with a successful insurance business- why does she need to do all these frivolous things? She is the one of the few people who doesn’t seem to need this show to survive. Why just put her name on yet another business venture? Not only that, but who’s asking for skin care tips from Vicki Gunvalson?
I would ask Vicki about the best place to turn up in Mexico, buying life insurance, how to perfect my “woo hoo” scream, or how to get out of trouble without actually apologizing- but skin care? I don’t know about that.

I haven’t seen the viewer numbers for last night’s MTV VMAs yet, but I wonder if it’s down by a lot compared to last year, since some genius decided to put it on the same night as the Game of Thrones season finale! Because of that, I skipped the VMAs for the first time in years, but priorities. Game of Thrones even trumped reality TV viewing last night. #sorrynotsorry
Anywhoodle. Here’s a few snaps of the few reality stars who showed up for the big night in L.A. Mostly Teen Mom stars, like Jenelle Evans, Gary Shirley and Farrah Abraham, along with daughter Sophia. Check out the photos below (including Nev Schulman, Christina Milian and more) and tell us which you look you like the best. Did you watch the show last night? Did I miss anything good?

Anyone who watches Real Housewives of Orange County or follows Tamra Judge on social media knows that she is very open- especially when it comes to discussing her body and appearance. She has been very forthcoming about everything from getting implants to taking them out to face lifts to fitness and everything in between. Now Tamra is discussing something that is actually pretty scary: skin cancer. Tamra reveals she initially thought that she had a freckle, but she got it checked and it is actually melanoma.
Tamra shared a photo on Instagram to show her followers the melanoma that she found. She wrote, “I work out hard for this Booty. I was planning on competing again in November at 50 years old, but I’m not sure that’s happening now. it looks like God has a different plan for me.”
Tamra explained, “I’m showing you this picture because this is what melanoma looks like. I don’t want sympathy, I want you to save YOUR ass and get your skin checked . This was just a small black flat freckle…. I had no idea!” Tamra has a lot of followers and that really does look like a plain freckle, so Tamra’s story and that photo definitely serve as a good warning for everyone to be cautious and get their skin checked.
Tamra joked, “I’ll be fine because my faith is strong and my Ass ain’t bad either.”
Even though the melanoma looks like a plain freckle, Tamra wasn’t taking any chances since she has had skin cancer removed in the past.
