Addison Rae is basking in the success of her latest single, “High Fashion,” and her social media updates are proof. The singer recently shared a few behind-the-scenes photos from the track’s MV, which portrayed a blend of charm and sexiness. The pictures featured the pop star displaying sultry poses in a bra top and jeans with eye-catching additions. Rae is truly one of the Southern girls, offering all things flirty with her glitter-covered photos.
Addison Rae strikes a pose in new Instagram photos
Addison Rae released her hit single “High Fashion” a couple of weeks ago, but the singer has no intention of leaving things high and dry post-release. On Wednesday, she continued to offer a behind-the-scenes look into filming the MV with her fans. The social media star struck some sultry poses, leaving her fans swooning over the photos.
The first picture captured Rae flaunting her toned physique while striking a sexy pose. She wore a white bra top that was accentuated with dangly beaded appliques, giving a water-drop illusion. The singer paired the bra top with denim pants and layered it with a decorated fringe around her waist. Adding a pop of sparkle to her ensemble, she added glitter around her torso, highlighting her belly button piercing.
The next picture gave a closer look at Rae’s glam. The singer gazed deeply into the cameras as someone from her team applied more glitter to her body. Her sparkly blue eyeshadow and wavy long blonde hair stood out in the photo. Another snap saw the singer dancing in a blue denim ensemble. The final photo captured her lying on the grass with a cameraman holding up a camera too close to her face, possibly for a close-up in the MV.
Addison Rae captioned the post, “Southern girlsssss likeee,” alongside diamond, kisses, and bow emojis. Fans took to the comments section to shower compliments on her look. The pop singer was already a breakout TikTok star but has been creating quite a wave in the music industry as well. Her recently released song, “High Fashion,” has already amassed 2.8 million views on YouTube.
Survivor Season 48, Episode 2 is here, after an incredible premiere last week. A brand new bunch of castaways are battling it out for the $1 million prize, and with some early hard gameplay, there was a tragic casualty as the first player was sent packing. Who will take the next great steps on their Survivor journey, and who’s going to come up short this week? Here’s everything important that went down during Survivor Season 48, Episode 2: “Humble Traits.”
What happened during Survivor Season 48, Episode 2?

The game continues in Survivor Season 48, Episode 2, as Mary faces an uphill battle after voting for Sai. Important conversations are had, and some alliances are set. Others meanwhile, seem close to crumbling. There’s a lot going on, and with nearly everybody confident, somebody’s game is going to come crashing down around them. The surprises are coming early in Season 48! Here are all of the highlights from Survivor 48, Episode 2.
Mary is questioned about her vote back at camp

With Sai picking up a vote from Mary, but Steph sent home, answers are demanded when the Vula tribe returned to camp. “What did Steph say to you that made you feel comfortable voting me?” Sai wondered. “She had been throwing your name out for a while,” came Mary’s response. Sai promised she had “no hard feelings,” but Mary wasn’t convinced. The pair had lied to one another, and the battle lines were drawn. Mary “got got,” but she didn’t “get as got got as Steph did.” Exactly. There’s always a path forward in a game like Survivor.
Over on Civa, the tribemates are bonding over their gross feet. David’s not fazed, though. “We’re family,” he says in confessional, before showing off his four nipples. “Maybe that’s why I like milk so much,” he ponders. Charity points out the imperfections as “humble traits,” which are something God-given to remind you that you’re not perfect. These moments are exactly why Survivor is still going strong, 48 seasons in. It’s real human connection, and laughing over whether or not you have a wart on your hand.
Lagi’s conversations are a little more game-focused. They’re in it to win it. “I think the thing that’s making us a step above everybody else is we’re not basing our individual goals over the team,” Eva says. They’re confident that they can continue to avoid tribal council, but Star’s rubbed the wrong way when Eva suggests she could be the sit-out at the challenge. So, Star goes out to look for both firewood, and an advantage. She’s not confident that anybody wants to work with her. “My concern is that I’m disposable.” It must feel real crappy to have those thoughts just three days in.
Star lands the Beware Advantage

Poking through a tree stump, Star comes across the Beware Advantage, and opens it up to grab the puzzle lock. It’s a different one to the cracked puzzle we saw Sai solve, probably to stop cross-tribe communication. Honestly, it looks a lot more complicated, and I’m not even going to try and explain it here.
Star feels the same, and goes to Joe for help. He suggests she bring somebody else in so they can form an alliance. While it looks like he’s with her, he’s actually doing this to build trust with the castmates he’s already aligned with. Shauhin is one of them, and he takes the puzzle guide from Star, who agrees to go and distract the rest of the tribe. Like a bullet from a gun, Shauhin rushes to figure out the code. Unfortunately for him, he’s making mistakes. Deciding to slow down and look at all his options, he leaves the puzzle in Star’s hands, for now.
Later, Star goes to Thomas to talk game. He’s stunned, and says it’s something he’s been waiting for. “I’m gaining allies minute by minute,” Star says in confessional. “I’m using this Beware Advantage to build trust.” I’m not entirely sure telling nearly the entire tribe separately about that is the wisest idea, though. Bianca says the admission “changes everything,” and Star is pitching Eva to both her and Thomas.
In a chat with Shauhin, Thomas suggests the puzzle go missing. It’s a high level of villainy, and it has Shauhin scared. “That is way too hard a gameplay … I’m not doing that.” Sad. I always want villainy to rule.
Star wants Eva out, and Joe is stuck. Everyone thinks he’s on their side. He’s in a lose-lose situation.
Joe pulls Eva aside to let her in on Star’s secret

Unsure what to do next, Joe pulls Eva aside. They bonded quickly at the start of this game, and seemed like instant ride-or-dies. He tells Eva that Star “found an Idol,” which isn’t exactly true, but he later corrects himself. “She’s the only person that I don’t have a good connection with on this beach,” Eva says. Now, the mission seems to be to make sure Star doesn’t complete her mission and find the Idol; instead, they want her to come to tribal council without her vote.
At Vula, flies are causing chaos. They even attack Justin mid-confessional. “It’s a mess. We don’t know who to listen to, who’s in charge, who’s running the show,” he admits. But does every tribe need a leader, or can they simply work things out while they’re all on an equal footing?
Kevin, Justin, and Cedrek walk the beach to talk about Sai and Mary. Kevin thinks Sai is the biggest threat. “She’s very influential,” he says. If Sai goes home, then her idol goes back into the game. “To me, the math is mathing.”
Now, it’s time for another twist. One person on each tribe must go on a journey. On the count of three, every player must hold out between one and five fingers. The player holding out the repeat lowest number wins the chance to go on the journey. So if you don’t want to go, you may as well put out a six.
Thomas, Mitch, and Mary are chosen, but not without controversy. Sai’s whining, because she won the practice round, but they then went ahead with a regular round. That’s the point of a practice, Sai! But editors did do you dirty with that armpit sniff.
What happened on the journey in Survivor 48, Episode 2?

The journey offers the three castmates the chance to earn an advantage. There’s a puzzle either side of the beach, and one in the jungle. Each must go in a different direction. The guys take the beach, and Mary heads into the jungle.
The puzzle is the same for each player. They must rearrange blocks in order from 1-15. Only one block can be removed and added at any time, and there’s a timer involved. If they finish within the time limit, they gain the advantage. Any who fail will lose their vote at their next tribal council. It seems like a pretty simple puzzle, but with the pressure turned up, minds are racing.
Mitch is first to complete the challenge, followed by Thomas. Sadly, Mary’s unable to finish up. The guys’ advantages? It’s a Steal a Vote for Thomas, with a Vote Blocker granted to Mitch. It leads me to wonder, just which advantage was awaiting Mary? Perhaps an Extra Vote?
Returning to her tribe, Mary tells the truth. She says she has no vote, and feels it’s a “death sentence.” Sai has no sympathy. Thomas lies, and plans to “not tell a soul.” He thinks Star is the “perfect example of telling too many people” about an advantage. On his tribe, Mitch comes clean. His tribemates are ecstatic. The vibes are good on the Civa tribe!
Chatting with Charity, Mitch solidifies their allyship. But David notices, and doesn’t trust the pair. “I like Mitch … but he’s playing hard. He’s playing hard like Charity, which is why I think they’re together,” David says to the rest of the tribe. He wants to go Beware Advantage hunting, and the rest of his alliance agree.
Kyle finds the Beware Advantage

With David right next to him, Kyle finds the Beware Advantage in a tree. They open it up, and inside is a riddle, surrounded by the animal symbols David spotted early in the game. Kyle wants to tell Kamilla and Chrissy, so that all four can help in decoding the puzzle lock. He even hands the puzzle lock directly to video game fanatic Kamilla.
“Trust is so hard to find out here, and that was an insane display of trust,” Kamilla says. She and Kyle are fully locked in. Eventually, Kamilla cracks the code thanks to the letters she and her alliance had found earlier on. She hands the contents of the puzzle lock back to Kyle, and he officially bags himself an Immunity Idol.
Now, on Day 5, it’s time for the next reward and immunity challenge. But it’s the important conversation between Mitch and host Jeff Probst I want to highlight here. He asks if, when Mitch is struggling to finish his sentence, he would like help from whoever he’s conversing with. Mitch explains that in an ideal world, people will “hang in there” and allow him to do it himself. So, people, if you ever find yourself chatting to someone with a speech impediment, be patient. While you might want to be helpful, you could lean into patronizing and belittling behavior.
The challenge itself will grant two tribes immunity. The first to finish get a huge fishing kit, and the second will receive a smaller fishing kit. Star and Kamilla are sit outs, and the challenge is on. It’s incredibly physical AND in the water; not something I’d love. In the end, Civa finish first, with Lagi coming in second, sending Vula back to tribal council.
Is it an easy vote for “sitting duck” Mary?

Sai feels bad that Cedrek couldn’t pull it out at the challenge. Still, she wants to take a shot at “sitting duck” Mary. Back at camp, Cedrek gets emotional. “I take most responsibility for the loss,” he says. “I also understand if it were very clear I should go tonight.” But he’s not giving up.
“I don’t care if you flop at every challenge,” Kevin tells Cedrek. “This challenge doesn’t change anything. It has to be Sai tonight, because she has an Idol. If it’s not gonna be this time, if Mary goes out today, then we are toast next time.” He has a point. The Idol either needs flushing this time around, or Sai blindsided, if the guys’ alliance is to survive the tribe’s potential third tribal council. A Shot in the Dark could throw a spanner in the works at this hypothetical tribal, but that’s a worry for later in the game.
Kevin takes Mary aside and promises to “do some magic here.” Her heart is sinking, but he assures her to “chill.” Her fate is in his hands, but will he be able to pull it off? Not if Cedrek’s heart takes over his head. He trusts Sai more than Mary, and wants to keep Sai around.
Speaking with Sai, Cedrek asks if she can “conceal” her emotions. “You need to play your Idol tonight,” he tells her. “Justin, Kevin and myself have talked. We’re voting for you,” he admits. “[But] I’m still gonna vote Mary. You vote Mary, if you play your Idol, Mary goes home.” Sai likes being viewed as a threat, and will “deal with Kevin later.” She’s now planting seeds about Kevin to everyone who will listen. As she says, “let the games begin.”
Justin thinks making a move against Kevin now is a good idea

Speaking with Cedrek, Justin proposes a “big swing.” Kevin can vote Sai, Sai can vote Mary, and the two of them can vote Kevin. This would send Kevin home, as Mary doesn’t have a vote. But are they willing to make that big move so early on?
At tribal, Sai quickly throws some shade at Kevin. He made a joke about their alliance of four being outed, and Sai took it as a serious comment. It’s a weird vibe, but understandable after what Sai learned from Cedrek. I have to wonder if he’s regretting letting her in on the information; she’s allowing some of her emotions to take over.
“If you can’t even trust the people you’re working with, who can you trust?” Sai says to Jeff. If Kevin can read between the lines, he should know that he’s in danger.
“It’s not an issue of personality; it’s an issue of trust. And in this game, if it’s an issue of trust, you can’t solve that other than eliminating the threat,” Mary tells Jeff when he asks if she and Sai could fix their relationship in the game. These two will never be allies. Now, t’s time to vote.
Who was sent home in Survivor Season 48, Episode 2?

Kevin Leung was the second person voted out of Survivor Season 48, in Episode 2, by a vote of 3-0.
Sai played her Idol for herself, which meant that the one vote against her, by Kevin, was negated. Mary didn’t have a vote.
Last week, I thought Kevin was going to be one of our frontrunners. He seemed to have a smart head on his shoulders, but it seems overplaying this early on came to bite him in the butt. It’s a shame, and I definitely think he’s someone who should get another shot in the future.

Mikey Madison’s latest photos showed her enjoying a much-needed time off following the awards season and her Best Actress Oscars win for “Anora.” Back in LA, she looked super casual in a jumper, joggers, and sneakers for a relaxing break with her brothers in the company of their adorable dog at the SunCafe Organic in Studio City. Backgrid’s pictures also marked her first outing since her massive victory at the 97th Academy Awards and an ideal work-life balance scenario.

Mikey Madison treated herself to some quality time with family and her dog in new LA photos after her Best Actress win at this year’s Oscar. After weeks of attending awards ceremonies and witnessing huge victories, Madison showed how to do work-life balance right, stepping out in the sunny city with her brothers and their furry friend. Backgrid just dropped photos of her taking a wholesome stroll on the street on Monday afternoon following her win over the weekend, looking quite comfy.
In the snaps, the “Anora” actor wore a beige sweater, which she paired with green joggers and white sneakers. She also carried one of Saint Laurent’s iconic shoulder bags and a pet sling carrying her tiny dog. Additionally, Madison donned oval-shaped black sunnies and styled her black tresses into a slightly messy bun. The agency also mentioned that they spotted her with her twin brother, Miles, and younger brother, Holden, along with the pupper, at SunCafe Organic in Studio City.
Mikey Madison’s LA photos showed her time away from the spotlight as she enjoyed her break after a happening weekend filled with glitz and glam. Contrary to her time off appearance, which was quite basic, the Oscar-winner stunned on Sunday’s red carpet in a pink and black strapless Dior gown. Her outfit oozed elegance, making her Academy Awards debut all the more iconic.

Kim Kardashian made the simplest setting work in her latest photos as she posed in couture around the house. The socialite is continuing her fashion run after the 2025 Oscars. Kardashian undoubtedly went all out and unveiled back-to-back luxe looks. In her latest Instagram post, the reality TV was seen wearing Jean Paul Gaultier haute couture.
Kim Kardashian wears Jean Paul Gaultier haute couture in new Instagram photos
Kim Kardashian has dropped yet another glamorous set of photos to celebrate the “after after party” following this year’s Oscars ceremony. This time, the media personality slipped into a look fresh off the runway. Kardashian wore a Jean Paul Gaultier Haute Couture gown, which was Look 14 from designer Ludovic de Saint Sernin’s “Le Naufrage.” The stunning piece was presented in the fashion house’s Spring/Summer 2025 show as part of the Paris Couture Fashion Week in January.
The glossy strapless black dress came with a snakeskin texture and body-hugging fit. The floor-length piece also featured a tiered mermaid skirt and an asymmetrical hemline, adorned with a series of subtle slits to add a flowy touch. Besides that, Kardashian also added her twist and ditched the gloves seen in the runway look.
Furthermore, the SKIMS co-founder matched her nails to coordinate with the monochrome look. Kardashian rocked a dramatic set of long black manicures. Apart from this, she pulled her hair back in a sleek bun and rocked her signature glam to round off the look. Stylist Dani Levi was behind curating Kardashian’s ensembles for multiple Oscar celebratory events this year.
Kim Kardashian’s latest photos saw her striking different candid poses around the house. This included shots of her opening a fridge, sitting on a couch, close-ups, and more. The carousel has amassed almost half a million likes at the time of writing. In addition to the glammed-up photos, Kardashian posted an Instagram Reel to flaunt the stunning Jean Paul Gaultier creation.

When Tom Sandoval was confirmed to be a part of The Traitors Season 3, you couldn’t help but laugh at the irony. Of course, a guy whose life blew up because of a cheating scandal would land on a show called The Traitors. The jokes write themself.
With that in mind, Tom recently revealed that he went into the show with zero interest in playing as a Traitor. Some people were dying for the chance, but Tom said he would have rather quit the show altogether.

In a new interview with Us Weekly, Tom admitted that he wanted people to see a different side of him. He’s still trying to wash off the stench of Scandoval. Playing as a Traitor would have been too on the nose.
“One thing that I was very adamant about is that I just did not want to be a Traitor,” Tom admitted. “If Alan [Cumming] would’ve picked me to be a Traitor, I would’ve left the castle myself. I just, I had no desire.”
Despite his reputation from Vanderpump Rules, Tom said that he wouldn’t have been good at playing the game as a Traitor. He had the perfect analogy to explain himself. He said it’s like forcing a kid to play an instrument versus a kid who actually wants to play an instrument.
“The person who wants to play an instrument is going to be a lot better at it,” he told the outlet. “I knew there were people there that really, really wanted to be Traitors. So I was like, ‘I’m just not gonna be good at it.’”
Although Tom walked away from the experience empty-handed, it sounds like he’s satisfied with his run. Even his biggest haters found a way to laugh with him — with the exception of maybe Chrishell Stause.
“It’s a more positive, fun gaming environment that would get people to see me in a different light,” he explained.
“The funny antics that come with it and the campiness of it all,” Sandoval continued. “I just knew that people would see a different side.”
The Traitors is streaming on Peacock. The Season 3 finale drops Thursday, March 7 at 9/8c.

On March 2, Ariana Grande looked straight out of a fairytale when she arrived at the 2025 Oscars. The “Wicked” star, who received a nomination in the Best Supporting Actress category, graced the red carpet at the prestigious Dolby Theatre in a custom Schiaparelli gown by Daniel Roseberry. The two-toned gown was a sculptural wonder. However, not only its beauty but also its usefulness caught the eyes of the fans. A video of Grande using the Schiaparelli gown as a phone holder has gone viral, sparking hilarious reactions from fans.
A now-viral video of Ariana Grande from the night of the Oscars 2025 showcased the actor making smart use of her Schiaparelli gown. Viewers can see the pop singer keeping her phone on the structured waistline of the dress while giving a standing ovation along with her co-star, Cynthia Erivo, during the winning speech of designer Paul Tazewell, who took home the Best Costume Design Oscar for his incredible work in “Wicked.”
Grande’s strapless Schiaparelli gown, which was part of the label’s Spring 2025 collection, showcased a stunning sweetheart neckline and a corset-style, blush-toned bodice that accentuated her toned figure beautifully. The peplum-style structured waistline added a layer of high-fashion drama to the look. From there, the gown fell into a striking long skirt that was made of a beautiful shimmery champagne tulle fabric. As per WWD, the singer wore stylish pumps from Jimmy Choo to go with the gown.
For accessories, Ariana Grande opted for a dazzling diamond-encrusted neckpiece and a pair of studs from De Beers. She also wore two diamond rings. The artist went for a pink petal blush makeup look for the Oscars 2025 night. She kept her hair in a sleek updo. MUA Michael Anthony acted as the makeup artist for this look, while Alyx Liu styled Grande’s hair. As usual, Grande’s longtime stylist, Mimi Cuttrell, curated her showstopping look for the award night.
Love’s truly in the air for Kylie Jenner and Timothee Chalamet. The beauty mogul has been tagging along to support Chalamet’s nominations for “A Complete Unknown”. Recently, she was also by his side at the Oscars 2025 as they celebrated his nomination for Performance by an Actor in Leading Role. The two enjoyed a PDA-filled date night at the award show, and videos of their loving interaction quickly went viral. Clips from the award show captured the couple’s intimate moments as they interacted with fellow guests or were in conversation with one another.
Kylie Jenner and Timothee Chalamet are holding on to each other at Oscars 2025

The Oscars 2025 was a star-studded event, but many captured attention either with their outfits or with their speeches. However, Kylie Jenner and Timothee Chalamet went viral as they continued their date night by holding on to each other at the award show. They not only celebrated the actor’s role as Bob Dylan but also engaged in PDA throughout the evening.
Soon after their appearance at the Oscars 2025, photos of Jenner and Chalamet getting up close and personal flooded the internet. The couple sat beside each other and shared kisses to mark the celebration. Photos captured them holding hands while interacting with fellow guests and also engaging in sweet whispers and fun conversations with each other.
In one video, Jenner switched seats from beside Chalamet to right behind him. She made the sweet gesture so that the actor could have a moment with his mother, Nicole Flender, who also arrived to show her support for her son. Although Chalamet didn’t win an Oscar, Jenner showered her love with kisses from behind the seat, making the moment special.
Another video captured the duo exiting the Oscars 2025 in good spirits. As they left LA’s Dolby Theatre, a video captured Timothee Chalamet holding Kylie Jenner’s hips as she walked in front of him. The two stopped for a brief selfie with a fan before sharing some laughs while exiting the venue.
Jenner and Chalamet not only served date night goals but also delivered equally fashionable style statements. The Kylie Cosmetics founder wore a black cutout Miu Miu dress, while her beau opted for a contrasting yellow tailored suit.
Kim Kardashian‘s pre-Oscars photos showed her going all out in a super rare Chanel outfit at the annual dinner party hosted by the luxury fashion house and Charles Finch. It was only natural that she partied in the corseted dress, which combined elements of two iconic and vintage runway looks from Chanel, to ring in the highly anticipated awards night of the year. Kardashian later shared GRWM photos on Instagram that looked so, so candid and absolutely gorgeous.
Kim Kardashian offers a closer look at her pre-Oscars party fit on Instagram
It almost seemed like this Chanel dress was made for Kim Kardashian as she offered close glances at her pre-Oscars look on Instagram. A glam night called for behind-the-scenes GRWM snippets, and she delivered with her latest social media post. Getting candid for the snaps, Kardashian posed wearing the corseted dress from Chanel’s Fall 1992 collection that featured a plunging neckline and spaghetti-thin straps for a sultry appearance. In addition, it comprised a tiered miniskirt and a mesh underlay.
A striking element of the reality star’s ensemble was her hairdo, which comprised of a slick-back high ponytail with multiple bows. According to WWD, this was in reference to Claudia Schiffer’s runway look from the fashion house’s Fall 1995 presentation. In her post, Kardashian credited celebrity hairdresser Chris Appleton for styling her black tresses into the iconic look and her fashion stylist Dani Levi for the overall outfit. Furthermore, Rokael Lizama assisted her with the makeup that elevated the elegance and added a touch of drama with bold eyes.
Kim Kardashian’s pre-Oscars photos also flaunted her marvelous Chanel bling — a set of diamond studs. She also seemingly carried a diamond-studded mini sling bag and wore velvet pointed-toe pumps with ankle straps. The snaps showed her posing ahead of the dinner party during her glam-up process and at the venue. In fact, the carousel consisted of images of two looks that inspired hers for the memorable night.
It’s official! The cast of Married to Medicine finally left Florida. However, they definitely aren’t done talking about what happened there. In M2M Season 11, Episode 13, “This Ain’t the Playground,” the events from Key West continued to plague the group and complicate their path forward.
In last week’s episode, Phaedra basically walked away from the show and took a private jet straight to The Real Housewives of Atlanta. This week, it becomes clear that there’s another cast member on her way out the door. Things aren’t looking too sweet for Lateasha in this group.
What happened in Married to Medicine Season 11, Episode 13?

After returning home from the Key West trip, the fallout from the sandbar fight continued when Dr. G dropped a legal threat. Meanwhile, Toya started getting the ball rolling on her Bridgerton-themed party, and Quad opened the doors to her “queendom” for a girls’ night. Keep on reading for the full breakdown of the latest episode of Married to Medicine.
Back in Georgia, still talking about Florida
Although the ladies have finally made it back to Atlanta, they’re still talking about the drama that went down in Key West. Between Quad’s argument with Dr. G, King almost throwing hands, and Phaedra fleeing in a private jet, there was a lot to discuss.
At the Bush-Harris residence, Toya and Dr. Eugene were talking about all of the fractured relationships in the group. They both felt bad for Dr. Greg and wanted to find a way for everyone to get along.
With that in mind, Toya revealed plans for her next big party — a Bridgerton-themed ball to celebrate their anniversary. She said she wanted to invite the entire group. It didn’t work at the sandbar, but maybe it will work if they’re all dressed up in Regency-era clothing.
Elsewhere in Atlanta, Heavenly was sitting in her house, working on a jigsaw puzzle when Quad dropped by. She had a completely different idea about how they move forward. She wanted to focus less on the couples and more on the friendships.
To make that happen, Quad revealed plans for a girls’ night at her house. However, two people didn’t make the guest list. She said that Phaedra felt like a lost cause and Sweet Tea? That’s a whole different can of worms.
Let’s get ready to waltz

To get the group ready for the Bridgerton party, Toya invited the entire group to a dance rehearsal so they could learn the waltz. It’s not a party without a little bit of dancing, and Eugene joked that this would serve in place of the electric slide.
Immediately, Toya’s vision of using this party to bring everyone together started falling apart. Quad didn’t come because she didn’t want King to have to be around Greg. Ironically, the Luncefords didn’t come.
Dr. Mimi also didn’t show up, but for some reason her husband did. Does anyone else feel like he’s been a bigger part of the show than she has?
Plus, Toya randomly invited Anila Sajja and her husband to the dance rehearsal. They call them anytime they need a few extra bodies to fill in a scene.
Toya passed around invitations to her party, and then Contessa dropped the bomb that we heard teased in the midseason trailer. She said that Dr. G filed a restraining order because of King’s attempted assault. In reaction to that news, Dr. Heavenly said exactly what everyone at home was thinking: “This sounds crazy as hell.”

The M2M producers had Toya working overtime this week. In another scene, she met up with Sweet Tea and Mimi to get more details on this supposed restraining order. Unfortunately, Tea didn’t offer much information.
Lateasha didn’t clarify if there was a restraining order or what exactly happened. Mrs. Lunceford said that was her husband’s story to tell. When Toya asked what the cops said, she hit back with an even stranger reply.
“That’s my business,” Sweet Tea said as if this whole thing wasn’t being filmed for reality TV.
With every question Toya asked, Sweet Tea deflected it back to Greg. After witnessing that tense, closed-door conversation in last week’s episode, the whole vibe with them just feels off. They aren’t open to coexisting with Quad and King — especially after getting law enforcement involved.
Toya wanted to know if Sweet Tea felt like she could move forward with the group. Is there a place for her in this friend circle? Even Sweet Tea doesn’t seem to know.
Dr. G says King charged at him “like a maniac”

Every episode of M2M is guaranteed to give you at least one belly laugh. This scene with Greg, Scott, and Eugene did it this week. The three doctors got together for some bro time, and Dr. G decided this was the time to show off his singing skills.
As soon as Greg sat down, he started whining about how nobody checked on him after Key West. He said that as if his wife wasn’t by his side the whole time, but everyone knows a man who is this level of needy.
When the guys started asking him about the alleged restraining order, he admitted that he called the cops and was trying to press battery charges, even though King didn’t touch him.
Greg said, “Why wouldn’t I? The man came charging at me like a maniac.”
In a confessional, Greg continued to say that taking legal action was the only way to “defend” himself from King. He said that if convicted, Quad’s new man could face up to 90 days in jail.
Then, things took a turn. Dr. G said that after getting back from Key West, he felt inspired to go into the studio and pour out his feelings about what happened. He pulled out a Bluetooth speaker and pressed play on the worst song ever heard on television. Eugene and Scott couldn’t help but laugh as Dr. Greg screeched, “Set me free. I got to be free from this bullsh*t!”
A girls’ night with Miss Quad

As promised, Quad invited all of the ladies over to her enormous home for a poolside party. Heavenly shut the party down when she showed up debuting a brand new red hair color. She strutted in and said, “I walk like my coochie good, don’t I?”
For the party, Quad had two rules. Rule number one: You have to stop at the bar and get a drink on the way in. That’s easy. Rule number two: there’s no talking about the past. We know that’s nearly impossible with this group.
With Sweet Tea and Phaedra left off the guest list, the ladies were able to have a future-focused conversation about how to move forward. Everyone from Season 11 won’t be included.
Toya and Mimi filled the ladies in on their conversation with Tea. Toya said it didn’t seem like Lateasha was ready to move forward, and she felt disappointed that she didn’t take any accountability for the drama in Key West.
With that said, Toya said that she was “choosing” Quad over Sweet Tea. It’s a far cry from where the ladies were in Season 10 when they were pushing Quad away and allegedly having secret meetings about getting her kicked off the show.

During the final moments of the episode, we saw Dr. Jackie drop by Phaedra’s house to try to convince her to come to Toya’s party. Phaedra couldn’t have been colder. Dr. Jackie was like, “Will you still come to Toya’s event?”
Phaedra quickly replied, “I don’t want to be around y’all.”
She can’t make herself any clearer. She’s done with this show, and we can’t help but wonder if she already signed on for RHOA Season 16 at this point. Either way, she said the situation with bringing Apollo on the trip was the last straw.
Dr. Jackie couldn’t wrap her head around this, and honestly, neither can we. If Phaedra knew Apollo was coming, and she knew that Cheick was friends with Apollo, how is this everyone else’s fault?
In Dr. Jackie’s eyes, it seemed like Phaedra was running away from a problem that she caused. Regardless, Phaedra said she’s done with this group. Go home, Jackie.
“I don’t think there’s any moving forward for me,” Phaedra admitted. “I’m just being honest.”
