Andy Cohen Reacts To Bethenny Frankel's New Real Housewives Rewatch Podcast
Let’s be real: There are tons of podcasts covering The Real Housewives, some better than others. And there’s definitely no shortage of Housewives-hosted podcasts, either. So, it probably came as a surprise to discover that Bethenny Frankel, of all people, would be entering this already saturated market with her Housewives rewatch podcast, ReWives. Since leaving TheReal Housewives of New York City, Bethenny has dissed the show time and time again, even claiming that appearing on it made her lose credibility as an entrepreneur and businessperson. Still, Bethenny plans on diving into all things Housewives with her new show.
Reactions to the podcast have been pouring in, and they’re mixed. But, finally, the head of the Housewives himself, AndyCohen, weighed in on what he really thinks about Bethenny taking on the Housewives in her new show. Page Six caught up with him at a charity event, and it sounds like he was just as puzzled as the rest of us but not totally against the idea because publicity is publicity.
“I was a little surprised,” Andy confessed to the outlet, “but again I was like, ‘Oh, this is good, good for you.’ The more Housewives podcasts the better.”
You’d think that Bethenny would be too busy slamming the Kardashians on Instagram or fighting with TikTok to take on a new project like this. However, in the premiere episode, she brought on actress ElisabethMoss to chat through RHONY’s infamous Scary Island episode. For future episodes, Bethenny promises to “rehash, revisit and rewatch the most iconic episodes from all of your favorite cities.”
Although Andy is trying to be supportive of ReWives, Bethenny’s former RHONY costars have come out swinging against it. In an interview, LuanndeLesseps called it “sad and pathetic,” and CaroleRadziwill really let her former friend have it on Twitter.
“Oh lordy…how original. But she did build her brand by trashing & mocking women specifically the HWs & Bethenny always returns to what she does best,” Carole tweeted. “I mean right out the gate she trash talks the other HW podcasts. Lol. Good luck to her. Somethings will never change.”
James Kennedy Says Raquel Leviss Made Out With Peter Madigral In Front Of Him While He Was Performing A DJ Set
Season 10 of Vanderpump Rules will be all that and more! From left and right, every angle, this cast’s drama is the perfect escape. Clearly, emotions are at an all-time high from James Kennedy now that he and RaquelLeviss are done, and she’s been getting super cozy with a lot of his besties.
Now, James is addressing how Tom and Raquel’s hookup impacted their group’s dynamic.
“It was weird. But honestly, I’m living my life, and everyone gets to live theirs,” he told Us Weekly at BravoCon. “I mean, Raquel was like flirting with Peter [Madigral]. Like she had her tongue down Peter’s throat during my See You Next Tuesday party [during[ the first week [of filming].” Peter hasn’t been shy talking about his former fling with his Pump Rules co-star.
As James continued, he definitely made it clear he was not thrilled about his ex being connected with his friends. “Now, it’s Schwarz. I don’t know. She is homey-hopping a little bit.”
OMG. I don’t know how Raquel is reacting to that statement, but I can’t imagine it’s a good one. James knows how to make good TV and stir up the pot. Especially in the Bravo world, all of the behind-the-scenes drama plays a part in how the cast interacts with each other while the show airs and at the reunion.
We’ll have to be a little more patient before we get an official announcement on the newest season. In the meantime, we know a little about what to expect. James teased that he and his co-stars definitely have some rough patches they’ll have to cover up this season.
“Oh, year. We’ll see how it unfolds on the season. But now, it is real friendships. It’s real emotions. So that’s why it gets so deep.”

Here we are at the DWTS semi-finals! Now each couple will perform a ballroom dance and a Latin dance that they haven’t performed yet. Then, two more couples will exit the ballroom ahead of the finale next week. Let’s go!
Wayne Brady and Witney Carson
Comedian, actor, and host Wayne Brady and his partner Witney Carson danced a fiery Paso Doble to “Beggin’” by Måneskin. Wayne incorporated an emotional story from his marriage into the routine. Judge Len Goodman mentioned a stumble near the end. Derek Hough also called out Wayne’s shoulders and hips. Bruno Tonioli called it “a fantastic performance.”
And Witney is expecting her second baby! Congrats, Witney! The duo scored 36/40.
Daniel Durant and Britt Stewart
Actor Daniel Durant, who starred in CODA, performed a Viennese Waltz with Britt Stewart to Jack Garratt’s “Surprise Yourself.” Derek praised Daniel’s lines and his arms. Bruno dubbed Daniel “Prince Charming” because so many have fallen in love with him. Len called the dance “skippy” at times. The couple received 35/40 from the judges.
Shangela and Gleb Savchenko
RuPaul’s Drag Race star Shangela and partner Gleb Savchenko danced a feisty Paso Doble to “The Edge of Glory” by Lady Gaga. I love the section with Shangela dancing with the fan alone in the spotlight. Bruno loved the dance but pointed out that Shangela missed a pass. Judge Carrie Ann Inaba called it “gorgeous.” Len enjoyed the traditional mix of steps. The duo scored 36/40.
Charli D’Amelio and Mark Ballas
TikTok star Charli D’Amelio and partner Mark Ballas danced an elegant Viennese Waltz to Joji’s “Glimpse of Us.” Carrie Ann called it “perfection on top of perfection.” She praised the couple for showing emotion. Len said it “took his breath away.” Derek praised Charli as “the first celebrity to look like a ballroom dancer.” I predict some great scores! The judges gave Charli and Mark 40/40.
Trevor Donovan and Emma Slater
Actor Trevor Donovan and Emma Slater were in the bottom three couples last week. They performed a cha-cha to “Satisfied” by Galantis ft. MAX. Trevor made Bruno’s dream come true by taking off his shirt and tossing it to Bruno.
Derek and Len both called out Trevor’s footwork. Carrie Ann said the routine was “strong and clean.” The duo received a 32/40 from the judges.
Gabby Windey and Val Chmerkovskiy
The Bachelorette star Gabby Windey and pro Val Chmerkovskiy danced a breathtaking waltz to Des’ree’s “I’m Kissing You.” Gabby opened up about her breakup with fiancé Erich Schwer in the package. She explained what a strong relationship her father and stepmom have and wanted to express that in their routine.
Derek called the performance “flawless.” Bruno praised the difficulty of the routine and change of pace. Carrie Ann felt that it was a “very human and wonderfully danced waltz.” Val and Gabby earned 40/40.
Len’s Big Announcement
Len announced that this is his last season judging on DWTS. What?! Len would like to spend more time with his family in Britain. All the judges gave him tearful hugs. He received a standing ovation from the ballroom.
And now, it is time for the second round of dances.
Wayne and Witney
The duo danced an emotional Viennese Waltz to James Brown’s “It’s A Man’s Man’s Man’s World.” He dedicated it to his grandmother, who passed away from Alzheimer’s Disease. Wayne performed the song. Derek thought Wayne’s frame got a bit small sometimes. Carrie Ann said that Wayne’s grandma would be proud. The duo received 37/40.
Daniel and Britt
Daniel and Britt performed a fun samba routine to “Light It Up (Remix)” by Major Lazer ft. Nyla & Fuse ODG. Derek was amazed by Daniel’s technique. Carrie Ann praised Daniel’s “swagger.” Daniel and Britt scored 34/40.
Shangela and Gleb
Shangela and Gleb danced a romantic Viennese Waltz to Whitney Houston’s “I Have Nothing.” Carrie Ann literally bowed down to Shangela. Len praised the fluidity of the dance but said Shangela’s head position was off sometimes. The duo earned 37/40.
Charli and Mark
Mark and Charli performed a dramatic Paso Doble to “Espana Cani” by Pascual Marquina. Mark played guitar during Charli’s solo. Carrie Ann came out and hugged both Charli and Mark. She called the performance “mind-blowing.” Len called it “fantastic.” The judges awarded the couple 40/40.
Trevor and Emma
This couple danced a lovely Viennese Waltz to Judah Kelly’s “Count on Me.” Trevordedicated the dance to Emma. Len liked the amount of time in hold but called it “a bit skippy.” Derek praised Emma and Trevor’s partnership and their chemistry. The duo earned 33/40.
Gabby and Val
This duo performed a fiery Paso Doble to Brian Setzer’s “Malagueña.” Derek loved “the power and attack.” Carrie Ann praised Gabby’s “ferocity and intensity.” Gabby and Val received 40/40.
The Judges’ Leaderboard
Trevor and Emma are in sixth place. Daniel and Britt are in fifth place. Charli and Mark and Gabby and Val are tied for first place.
The Double Elimination
The couple with the lowest combination of viewer votes and judges’ scores will be eliminated immediately. The bottom three couples are Shangela and Gleb, Trevor and Emma, and Daniel and Britt. Trevor and Emma are eliminated.
The judges unanimously decide to save Shangela and Gleb. Daniel and Britt are sent home just shy of the DWTS finale.

Lala Kent Shades Randall Emmett After He Told Her "To Move On"
Lala Kent is slamming her ex, Randall Emmett after he tells her to “move on” following their split. Fans will remember Lala after she joined the Vanderpump Rules cast during season 4. Her quick shade and lethal attitude got her into some mess with some of her cast members, but I’ve always loved how real she keeps it. Absolutely perfect for an ensemble show like this.
A rep from Randall told Us Weekly, “Randall is happy Lala is having other relationships. He hopes this will help her move on with her life and find peace.” LaLa and Randall split a while ago now, things were pretty dark between them. Lala slammed Randall, saying she couldn’t “wait for sex to be over” and so much more. Just 5 months after giving birth, the Pump Rules star removed Randall from her Instagram profile.
Lala finally responded to Randall through Us Weekly while at BravoCon and said, “Side note: I’ll move on with my life when I know my daughter and her future are safe.” She was on the shade assassin panel next to Kenya Moore and Margaret Josephs for a reason. She doesn’t hold back.
Let’s be very clear though. Randall was upset because Lala was talking freely in the press about her relationship status. She told Jeff Lewis on his SiriuxXM radio show that she “might be in love with someone.”
We’ve hung out like, literally, that was the third time. We had a lot of fun,” she explained. “I love his brain. He’s very smart. His face doesn’t match what comes out of his mouth. He’s a unicorn.”
If you’re Team Lala here and hoping to see more of her dating life featured on the show, you may have to wish for something new. Lala confirmed that viewers “won’t see me, like, dating” when season 10 of the series airs on Bravo likely in the new year. But don’t lose hope just yet… she hinted that her fans will likely see “the first boy I slept with since my last relationship.”

Kim Kardashian And Pete Davidson Had Sex In Front Of A Fireplace In Honor Of Her Grandmother MJ
Hang on tight, y’all — this one is something different. Kim Kardashian is speaking out about her sexual escapades with her ex-boyfriend, Pete Davidson. It’s no secret that The Kardashians have been very vocal in the past about their past sexual experiences. Their transparency and their openness are some of the many things that makes me love them.
“Pete and I were staying at the Beverly Hills Hotel last weekend, and we were sitting in front of the fireplace just talking for hours,” she said. “And I was like, ‘My grandmother told me that you really live life when you have had sex in front of the fireplace.’ So we had sex in front of the fireplace in honor of you.”
Very, very interesting, Kimmy! In fact, she probably was thinking the same thing. “How creepy to think about your grandma before you have sex,” Kim said in the episode.
Kim started dating Pete after an episode of Saturday Night Live in October of 2021. This was Kim’s first public relationship following her split from Kanye West. After doing a little reflecting on her divorce from Kanye, she gave a deep statement.
“For so long, I did what made other people happy. And I think in the last two years I decided, I’m going to make myself happy,” she said. “And that feels really good. And even if that created changes and caused my divorce, I think it’s important to be honest with yourself about what really makes you happy. I’ve chosen myself. I think it’s okay to choose you.”
Yes, Kim! I’m loving that and am really choosing to live by that mantra. Kim and Ye’sdivorce has been highly publicized. Recently, Kanye has been dropped by all of his sponsors, managers, agents, and companies, like Adidas, which manufactures his “Yeezy” brand, because of his antisemitic and racist remarks. Although very disturbing, I hope Kanye seeks the help and healing he feels he needs.

As viewers of BIP well know, Genevieve has been in a relationship since week 2 of this season with Aaron Clancy. They even survived the week apart when the all the Paradise women were sent to a posh hotel, while shiny new ladies were brought in to tempt the men away from their already established relationships. Buckets of tears (mainly Genevieve’s) ensued. Devious, but brilliant move, BIP producers!
But the writing may be on the wall for Genevieve and Aaron. Their immaturity is showing, as fights and disagreements over trivial issues are becoming more frequent. The biggest one so far happened when Aaron wanted to just hang out with his bros, while Genevieve wanted couple/alone time to tell him she was falling in love with him. He accused her of “gaslighting” him.
Huh? I don’t think Aaron understands the meaning of gaslighting.
Genevieve threw a giant tantrum and packed her bags to go home. Aaron had to chase her up the stairs and beg her not to leave. Meanwhile Eliza (Isichei) and Victoria (Fuller), who were just down the path listening in on Gen and Aaron’s heated (and extemely childish) argument commented, “That’s how you know that you care about each other, when you start arguing like this.” Um . . . no? Once you’re out of high school, almost breaking up over something so mind-numbingly stupid is not the sign of a healthy relationship.
How much fun would it have been to suddenly throw a third party into this messy mix with the appearance of Genevieve‘s on-off boyfriend Johnny Bananas? It would have been Brandon, Kelly and Dillon all over again! (Beverly Hills 90210 — the original one — reference, in case you’re not old enough to remember that show.)
Genevieve and Johnny have history together, as reported by RadarOnline, noting that they met years ago before she was ever on The Bachelor. They reconnected after she was eliminated from Clayton Echard‘s season of the show and are still friends.
Since they reconnected and Genevieve was cast on Bachelor in Paradise, ideas were discussed to have Johnny “infiltrate” the BIP resort and even possibly go on the reunion show to “fight for his fair maiden.” Unfortunately, scheduling conflicts prevented both of those scenarios.

Tom Sandoval And Ariana Madix React To Split Rumors
Still going strong. With the demise of so many Vanderpump Rules couples, Ariana Madix and Tom Sandoval showed a united front in the face of recent breakup rumors. The long-time loves defended their romance as the fallout of their co-stars breakups fill online blogs.
The Fancy AF Cocktails coauthor denied that social media pressure has any effect on her relationship with Tom. “You know what’s funny, though? I was just saying to someone else, I was like, ‘I also love to gossip about, like, people I watch on TV,’”she said. “I look at all those blind items [online] and things like that. I’m into it, so I totally get it.”
“If you were to follow all of those things — I mean, we’ve been together for almost nine years — you would think we’ve broken up like times 50 times,” Ariana joked during a panel at BravoCon 2022.
But Tom confirmed, “We’re great. We’re doing really good.”
So what triggered this latest bout of rumors? Perhaps just another couple in the Vanderpump Rules lineup. But the Schwartz & Sandy’s co-owner recalled a prior time when a moving truck filmed outside his house resulted in a tremendous amount of tabloid fodder.
Tom explained that the moving trucks were props for a commercial. “We shot this thing for Alka-Seltzer and people were like, ‘Oh, yep, they’re done. [There’s] moving trucks out front,’” he said.
Well, for the cynics among us, there are plenty of newly single Vanderpump Rules stars that promise to fill Season 10 with fresh drama and romances.
“Obviously, with all these people being single, like, those dynamics have shifted a lot,” Ariana told the publication of the new dynamic on the show. “I mean, you’re definitely gonna see some of James [Kennedy’s] new girlfriend. So that’s definitely [a] new dynamic and you’ll see her interacting with us. It’s a lot. It feels very new and different.”
Lala is in a new relationship, and gave fans a sneak peek of the fellow recently. Surely the partner that is giving Lala, “the best sex of my life” will participate in the new season.
TELL US- WHAT DO YOU THINK OF ARIANA AND TOM’S RELATIONSHIP? DID YOU BELIEVE THE BREAKUP RUMORS? WHAT ARE YOUR EXPECTATIONS FOR NEW ROMANCES AND DRAMA ON SEASON 10?
First of all, great job Survivor! You managed to hoodwink all of us last week into thinking that Dwight left the game with Jeanine‘s hidden Immunity Idol in his pocket! Well not only was it not in his pocket (it was in his crotch…”Don’t worry,” he told Jeanine. “I’ll wash it.”), the Idol wasn’t even on his person! Unbeknownst to the viewers but as revealed on Wednesday’s new episode, Dwight had actually handed it off to Jesse before heading to Tribal Council. So not only is the Idol still in the game and in Jesse’s possession, but Jeanine never knew that!
There was a lot of talk this week about “trust” and also the “social contract,” as Jeff Probst calls it, that the players create for themselves within the game. I couldn’t help but see the parallels with what they were discussing, as applied to the “social contract” that Jeff and CBS has established with its die-hard, faithful Survivor audience. We expect things to go certain way when we watch the show, we allow certain things and sometimes (like when Jeff Probst decided to address the camera straight-on during Season 41), we reject variances. But the show has created the social contract stating that they have the freedom to try new things, twist things up, and even though we may not like something, we’ll keep watching as we keep our faith in the game on the whole.
But like Sami said, the rules are always changing, always being amended, even if subtly. The idea that Jeanine‘s Idol would end up with Jesse but that the truth wasn’t revealed to the audience until this week is a classic example of nudgingly “amending” Survivor’s social contract with its audience. I for one, loved it! I also was a fan earlier in the season when they revealed – conveniently – that an Idol had been found earlier in the game, but was shown to us as a flashback during Tribal. If Survivor pushes things too far and we begin to feel manipulated, then I think it’s fair to say that Probst has broken his social contract with the audience. But I haven’t felt this yet, not this season anyways. Did any of you feel at all like keeping Jeanine’s Idol whereabouts was out-of-bounds? Anyone feeling betrayed?
Speaking of feeling betrayed, this week’s episode began with Owen feeling quite lonely, having been left out of two straight votes. It’s hard not to feel for the guy, and we were given some backstory about how he was adopted and how he always feels on the outs, to cement our feelings about him. It worked. But Owen went on to win individual Immunity during the episode, against all odds and even as a surprise to himself. Owen is a great player to root for, but like he even said, right now his Survivor resume is less than impressive.
The good news is there is still a lot of game left to be played…there is still time to build that resume. I love that on Survivor though, this is all perspective. If you’re on the bottom like Owen? You’re planning your next, and first, big move. If you’re Sami, a guy who has mostly flew under the radar but who is relatively safe so far? He also knows that he’s going to have to “go big” at some point. But if you’re at the top of the food chain, like Cody has been thus far, you see things much differently. “Let’s simplify things,” was Cody’s strategy this week. Not every vote has to be a huge move, sometimes you need to go with the obvious target. Is Cody right or wrong in this way of thinking?
With the majority seven in place (and they stayed in place after voting out Jeanine), that leaves Gabler, Owen and Noelle on the outs, with Jeanine becoming “The Mayor of Ponderosa” (i.e.: The first member of the jury). But if you know Survivor at all, you probably know that even when there is an “easy” vote like this week’s, it is even more rare for a second “easy” vote to come next week. So in a weird, twisted Survivor way, the three current bottom-feeders may actually be more safe than we realize. As we saw, the majority seven are just chomping at the bit to make moves, and to ensure that they are not on the bottom of that seven alliance. That is, all except Ryan who just seems content catching fish and being the camp Survivor…the oldest-school strategy in existence in the game one one that hasn’t worked in eons.
I’m loving it, because we have such great players remaining, all of whom have what it takes to become legends. Karla, Jesse, Sami, Codi…all of these seem to by laying in wait and looking to pounce. Cassidy seems a bit rockier, and I’d say other than Ryan (who is clearly the seventh-man in the seven person alliance), it appears that James is gaining a lot of attention. As long as he possesses his “Knowledge is Power” advantage, the more dangerous a target he becomes, especially for those that have Idols or advantages of their own that they don’t want to be stolen. James isn’t special in this way: ALL remaining players that have Idols or advantages are becoming bigger threats the fewer players that remain in the game…at some point, the current in-game “social contract” will be lit on fire, as someone will eventually strike first. It’s inevitable. There are always bigger fish to fry…you just want to make sure that you’re not the one who is cooking too hot.
Episode Take-Away: It was an uphill battle for Jeanine, so I am sorry that she went out the way she did. She just couldn’t get a break in this game, which happens to all but one player each and every season. But for an episode that seemed to end with the “simple” or “obvious” choice, I thought it was packed full of great strategy. This season is bubbling just under the surface, and I don’t think we’re very far off from watching the volcano erupt.

Winning over a BFF is never easy. In this exclusive sneak peek of the Nov. 13 episode of 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After?, Bilal and Shaeeda grab dinner with her best friend Eutris, who is...
Last night’s episode of Married At First Sight was completely unnecessary. If I am being honest, most of the tea was spilled on the first part of the reunion. I felt like part 2 was rehashing things that were already discussed. But there were a few gems that came out of the episode.
The San Diego cast struggles to deal with the aftermath of a confrontation. Issues from the past continue to put pressure on their relationships as they move forward. The experts intervene with blunt words of wisdom to help with unhealed wounds. Let’s get straight to the recap.
Stacia and Nate
Nate continues to antagonize Justin throughout the reunion. Honestly, if he worried as much about his own feelings as he does Justin’s, maybe he would be in a better place in his own marriage. His wife has already admitted he is still guarded with his emotions. Stacia and Alexis had to continuously run interference between these two, while the other looked shocked.
Alexis and Justin
Justin doubts Alexis truly went on the show for the right reasons. Both of their siblings join them to give their input on the marriage, from their perspective. They both acknowledge their siblings just may not have been right for each other. Although they both have moved on, neither is dating seriously. The host and the experts encourage them to give each other another chance. Justin shuts the suggestion down, but I’m not convinced he wouldn’t change his tune, if Alexis expressed interest.
Later with the ladies, Alexis shares that she felt her and Justin‘s relationship dynamic was like a mother and child. Sigh! Well, I have to admit I can see why she could feel that way. Her level of attraction to him diminished over time due to his sensitive nature. She wanted to have her own emotions, without regulating his in the process. Surprisingly, most of the men support him embracing his emotions, with the exception of Nate who thought it was “weird”. To each, their own, but I’m sure he will eventually find a woman who appreciates that.
Lindy and Miguel
Lindy speaks a little more about that explosive weekend during the couple’s retreat. Previously, she accused Miguel of trying to control her to some of the other participants. But during the reunion she makes it clear her husband isn’t controlling. She blames her own insecurities as the root of the issue. I’m not sure that is entirely true, since it seems like both of them were having serious issues on multiple occasions. But I guess she made the choice to stand by her man. Hopefully things are less stressful now that they no longer have cameras following them.
Krysten and Mitch
The ladies rally around Krysten supporting her and Mitch’s decision to divorce. Apparently, all of the women felt very strongly about the way he treated her throughout the experiment. The only reason we didn’t see more ire from them is because they were trying to respect Krysten’s choices. In unseen footage, we see Stacia repeatedly refer to Mitch as Bitch instead of his name. Insert side eye here. I’m not sure I would have let that slide if I were in his position.
While speaking with the experts, Mitch admits he didn’t fully understand what he was getting himself into. Ummm… is the title Married at First Sight not self-explanatory? He credits his lashing out to always feeling like an outcast throughout his life. Now that he has the chance to reflect, he realizes he brought those insecurities into his marriage. Sigh! Whatever the issue, I am just glad these two agreed to a divorce.

Is Kim Zolciak-Biermann's Home Facing Foreclosure?
Don’t be tardy for the party, and definitely don’t be tardy for the mortgage. Has Kim Zolciak-Biermann learned that lesson the hard way? Rumors are swirling that the Bravo star’s home is facing foreclosure, but that can’t be true, right? Between The Real Housewives of Atlanta and Don’t Be Tardy, we’ve literally watched Kim and Kroy Biermann’s family grow into that house. So, we’re desperately trying to get to the bottom of what’s happening here.
Amid the rumors about Kim’s home facing foreclosure, Page Six dug into the records. They revealed that Kim’s house was once in jeopardy, but it was due to taxes, and it wasn’t anytime recent. The documents showed that in 2014, the couple owed a lien of $10,567.67. They were sent a fieri facias letter, threatening that a state office might seize their property to pay off outstanding tax obligations.
Kim and the gang were able to scrounge up some dollars and get the debt paid off, so that threat of foreclosure has been long gone. However, that hasn’t stopped fans online from skepticizing about the Biermann family’s financial status—especially since Don’t Be Tardy was canceled last year. A new rumor surfaced that Kim’s house, worth $2.5 million, was recently auctioned off for just $257,000.
In response to the rumors about her house, Kim took to her Instagram story to clap back. Per Page Six, she’s adamant that she and her family are not leaving her home anytime soon.
“My house was not sold for $257,000,” she explained in the Instagram video. “If you guys think that I would let my home, that we put millions and millions of dollars [into], go for $257,000, you’re an idiot, OK? For real.”
The singer and entrepreneur continued to assert that it would be on her terms, not a court order, if she ended up leaving her house. In the video, Kim asked, “So, what are you going to do, haters, when I’m here for Christmas, and I’m here for my birthday, and I’m here for all those amazing dates?”
She continued, “I’m here until I f–king want to move out. ‘Til I decide I don’t want to live here anymore. So enjoy the view, haters, ’cause you’re going to be seeing it for quite some time.”
So, the Biermann’s appear to be in the clear for now and aren’t facing foreclosure. Let’s hope it stays that way.

It’s ’90s night in the ballroom, baby! The relay dances are back, and we are being treated to some special musical performances. But two DWTS competitors will be sent home. The couple with the lowest combined viewers’ votes and judges’ scores will automatically be eliminated. Yikes!
So, break out your grungiest flannel and snuggle up with your collection of beanie babies as we head back to the 1990s. Salt-N-Pepa and En Vogue performed during the opening number. Hosts Tyra Banks and Alfonso Ribeiro took a moment to remember Aaron Carter, who competed in Season 9 and to send condolences to his family. CNN reported that Aaron passed away on November 5, 2022.
Shangela and partner Gleb Savchenko performed a samba to the Spice Girls’ song “Spice Up Your Life.” The routine kicked off with Shangela performing with the DWTS version of the Spice Girls. Judge Derek Hough thought that the performance was “amazing” but called out Shangela for having some sloppy footwork. Carrie Ann called the performance “lit.” The duo scored 37/40.
Wayne Brady and Witney Carson
Actor and comedian Wayne Brady and Witney Carson performed a funky salsa to Boyz II Men’s “Motownphilly.” I loved it! Carrie Ann called it his best dance so far. Len called it “top-notch.” The duo received 40/40.
Daniel Durant and Britt Stewart
Actor Daniel Durant and Britt Stewart performed a jazz number to “Enjoy the Silence” by Depeche Mode. But first, Daniel discussed how he was abandoned by his birth mother and was adopted by his two mothers. He later reconnected with his birth mother before her death from cancer.
Halfway through the dance, the music cut out to show what it is like to dance as a deaf person. Carrie Ann called the dance “profound” and said it’s “an honor to watch you dance.” Derek was very emotional. Judge Bruno Tonioli told Daniel “that the world is proud of you.” The duo scored 39/40.
The duo danced an emotional contemporary routine to the song “Ironic” by Alanis Morissette. Len felt that the dance didn’t suit Heidi’s outgoing personality. Derek felt the dance was “beautiful.” The judges gave the couple 35/40.
Gabby Windey and Val Chmerkovskiy
The Bachelorette star Gabby Windey’s partner Val Chmerkovskiy returned after battling Covid-19 last week. Gabby and Val performed a sexy samba to “Livin’ La Vida Loca” by Ricky Martin. Derek called it “the best samba ever.” Derek even removed his shirt. Bruno felt like he was “hit by a sex bomb.” This routine was amazing! The duo scored 40/40.
Vinny Guadagnino and Koko Iwasaki
Jersey Shore star Vinny Guadagnino and his partner Koko Iwasaki danced the tango to Haddaway’s “What Is Love.” Carrie Ann complimented Koko’s choreography, and was happy that Vinny showed his personality. Len was pleased to see Vinny dancing in hold. The judges gave the couple 29/40.
Charli D’Amelio and Mark Ballas
TikTok star Charli and Mark Ballas danced a fierce international tango to “Song 2” by Blur. Carrie Ann stood up and said, “If you were a painting, you are a Picasso.” Len praised Charli’s “maturity” as a dancer. The duo scored 40/40.
Alfonso Hits The Dance Floor
Alfonso joined the pros for a dance to MC Hammer’s “Can’t Touch This.” He still has the moves!
Relay Dances
Each couple will dance against another DWTS competitor. One judge will award five bonus points to the couple that turns in the best performance.
Shangela and Gleb vs. Daniel and Britt
These couples performed a cha-cha to “Ice Ice Baby” performed by Vanilla Ice. Len was the judge for this round. Shangela and Gleb won the five bonus points.
Trevor and Emma vs. Vinny and Koko
Both couples danced the samba to “My Lovin’ (You’re Never Gonna Get It)” performed by En Vogue. Carrie Ann was the judge for this round, and she awarded the five bonus points to Trevor and Emma.

These couples performed a samba to “Shoop” performed by Salt-N-Pepa. The judge for this round was Bruno. He gave five points to Wayne and Witney.
Charli and Mark vs. Gabby and Val
This match-up was a real nail-biter. The couples performed a salsa to “Ain’t Gonna Hurt Nobody” performed by Kid’ N Play. Derek judged this round and awarded the five bonus points to Mark and Charli.
The Judges’ Leaderboard
Vinny and Koko are at the bottom of the leaderboard. Shangela and Gleb are in third place. Charli and Mark are tied for first place with Wayne and Witney.
The Double Elimination
The bottom three couples are Heidi and Artem, Trevor and Emma, and Vinny and Koko. The couple eliminated immediately was Heidi and Artem.
All four judges decide to save Emma and Trevor. That means Koko and Vinny are also headed home.
Next week is the semi-finals and another double elimination!
