The Good Wife worlds collided and there is photographic proof thanks to Cush Jumbo. Jumbo, who joined the CBS series for its final season as Lucca Quinn, met Josh Charles, the dearly departed Will...Admit it. You’ve been waiting on Thomas Ravenel’s epic dinner party since it was first teased on this season’s Southern Charm premiere. Was it everything you hoped it would be? That and more, of course! Regardless of what is going on now between T-Rav and Kathryn Dennis, last night the aging playboy had his baby mama’s back…or does he just love to hijack his own event–remember that Glass Menagerie speech?
As the cast greets the new day on last night’s episode, Whitney Sudler-Smith gifts mother Patricia Altshul with a grand-dog. She’s thrilled with the new pooch and doesn’t seem to realize that in these situations, puppies are the universal substitute for someone who isn’t quite ready for the real thing. Maybe someone should have bought Kathryn and Thomas a kennel? Craig Conover pops in to visit Kathryn and meet St. Julien Rembert who is merely a week old. She asks him which parent Julien favors more, but Craig thinks all babies look identical. Plus, he’s not sure who the father is to even be able to make that assessment. Man, with friends like Craig, who needs enemies? So much for being Kathryn’s biggest cheerleader! Kathryn reveals that two babies are easier than she’d anticipated, and the relationship she’s always dreamed of with T-Rav is finally within reach.
Lunching with JD, Thomas recalls Mrs. Pat’s celebratory supper, and he didn’t appreciate being put in the hot seat about Julien’s paternity. JD nods and smiles, always the supportive friend, but he still staunchly believes another paternity test is in order. Of course, he also thinks that Thomas would raise that child as his own even if he knew otherwise. Thomas shares his plans for an intimate party to honor his son’s birth, and he’s leaving Whitney and Patricia off the guest list as an olive branch to Kathryn. However, Landon Clements will make the cut, as Thomas is optimistic she and Kathryn can squash any ill-will and move forward as friends. Speaking of Landon, she’s having vino with her sister Bam and lamenting about her business meeting gone sour. She is the oldest sister, but feels she’s playing catch-up with her younger siblings when it comes to career and families. All I can think of is the episode of Friends when the group is in Vegas and Joey finds his identical hand twin. Landon and Bam are identical voice twins. If I close my eyes, I can’t, like, figure out which one is, like, nervously laughing and talking. They have, like, the exact. Same. Like. Voice.
The conversation turns to Landon’s confession of love for Shepard “Shep” Rose, and across town, Shep is having the same discussion with Cameran Eubanks. He recaps his chat with Landon to Cameran, and she’s not surprised in the least. Cameran’s been telling him for years that Landon is ga-ga for him. Bam asks Landon if she’s attracted to him, and sure, he’s handsome, and he’s nice, and they aren’t getting any younger. Cameran also questions Shep whether Landon tickles his pickle. Maybe? Once he pulled her into a closet for a make-out session (girls dig spontaneity), but he thinks sex would change their dynamic. Landon doesn’t strike him as a girl who would be down with a casual hook-up while he figures out what he wants. Cameran stops chewing long enough to explain to him that most girls aren’t down with that scenario. Shep seems surprised by this insight.
Thomas drops by Kathryn’s I’On digs to spend some quality time with Julien and see Kensie’s completed nursery. He and Kathryn interact lovingly, and Thomas enjoys the prospect of imagining the foursome as a family. It’s much better than the alternative that has been their normal for almost three years. T-Rav summons Dierdre, the new night nurse–“she’s amazing!” they both gush (she’ll never be Dawn, traitors!!)–so the pair can discuss his upcoming gathering. As Thomas spouts off the guest list, Kathryn is pleased to learn that Whitney and Patricia are absent due to their bad-mouthing. Thomas is feeling pleased until he announces Landon’s invitation. Wait, what? Kathryn pointedly reminds him that he excluded his best friend and his best friend’s mother because they hate her, yet he wants to include a girl who has been nothing but malicious to her. She stresses to him that she’s never been anything but kind to Landon and is undeserving of Landon’s retaliation (God love the editor who spliced in a clip of Kathryn flipping off Landon from last season!).
Kathryn digs her heels in the sand and refuses to attend any gathering that includes Landon, and Thomas plans his escape. He adores Landon, and he’s not willing to budge. As she pleads her case, T-Rav plays dumb. The pair starts arguing and he threatens to cancel the event. His efforts to storm out of Kensie’s room are thwarted when Kathryn blocks the door. No worries! He’ll just jump out of the window! Realizing he’s on the second floor, Thomas sheepishly returns to inside the house. Kathryn realizes the couple is *thisclose* to retreating back to their crazy ways, and she’s *thisclose* to getting the relationship she desires from T-Rav. She quickly diffuses the situation by transforming into the bigger person. If it’s important to Thomas that Landon is invited, she’s supportive of his decision.
Cameran swings by Craig’s house to dish about the group’s latest drama while showing off some new bling courtesy of husband Jason. Craig wonders if baby-gate is taking a toll on the newlyweds, but Cameran counters that she’s been going to therapy to face her fears. She also points out that she told Jason long before he proposed that if her not wanting kids was a deal-breaker in their relationship, he shouldn’t pop the question. That said, she’s not as opposed to the idea of children as she once was. Sidebar, she looks gorgeous, and I want her hair. The chatter turns to Kathryn and Thomas, and Cameran insists she’s not anti-the couple, but she needs to see them consistently not acting five-star insane. Craig is Kathryn’s bestie in this scene, and he hopes that Cameran can get to know the calm, mature, normal Kathryn he’s been hanging out with of late. He’s such a mediator once he passes the bar.
Cooper Ray and Kathryn are shopping Gwynn’s for a fabulous ensemble for Kathryn to wear to T-Rav’s party. As she’s no longer a Gumby clone after giving birth to two children, she’s ready to embrace her curves. The duo is interrupted by a call from Jennifer Snowden who wants to meet her bestie’s newest addition. Kathryn is polite, yet curt, with her avoidance. If Thomas doesn’t want Jennifer in her life, she’s willing to cut ties. Kathryn relays to Cooper that Thomas thinks Jennifer is a bad influence so she’s trying to distance herself, to which he snarks, “You think?” before dressing her in caftan from the butler’s private collection. Kathryn feels a tad too Cruella DeVille so it’s back to the designer racks. Don’t forget the cor-SET!
Across town, a similarly clad Pat (seriously, navy caftans must be so in) is hosting a navy clad Landon. Over martinis, Patricia needles Landon about the rumors that she’s an item with Shep. She advises Landon to channel her inner vamp and to forget about the turmoil caused by her divorce. Onward and upward! Landon wipes away tears and cites that sexiness makes her uncomfortable. Hogwash, admonishes Patricia. In her day, girls didn’t go out in public without a full face and fancy dress. Toss the flip-flops and rash guards and make Shep yours, the grand dame asserts! And heck, if Shep isn’t the one, perhaps Landon should set her sights on T-Rav. He’s a rich and attractive older man. Landon isn’t opposed, except for the idea of having to co-parent with Kathryn.
On Hilton Head, Shep is meeting with his absolutely adorable mother. As an editing aside, Shep noted on Twitter that this scene occurred AFTER the Southern version of Bravo’s dinner party from hell. Shep adores his parents, and he wants to please them with his potential mate. His siblings are settled and raising families, and he feels a bit behind. He shares Landon’s revelation with his mom who isn’t all that shocked. He thinks the pair is perfect on paper, but they are lacking a spark. His mother reminds him that the spark can ignite later in their relationship, but at the end of the day, she just wants happiness for her son. If that means Shep marries and has the most adorable family, amazing, but if he’s a consummate bachelor, she’s happy if he’s happy. Can Mrs. Rose be a staple next season? Back in Charleston, the gang is preparing for Thomas’ dinner party. Landon has dolled up a bit more than normal in hopes of catching Shep’s eye. At his new home, Thomas is channeling his inner Martha Stewart, and he’s excited to showcase his house, as well as Kathryn’s latest refined demeanor.
As the crew convenes on Thomas’ abode, Kathryn braces herself with a bourbon as Thomas leads a tour. Craig, Naomie, and Landon arrive, and Kathryn keeps her distance. Both she and Shep are avoiding an awkward moment with Landon. Cooper encourages Kathryn to be the bigger person and greet Landon, but she sneaks out to have a smoke and confide in Elizabeth. Cameran enters, and Kathryn is proud of her ability to grin and bear it amidst her haters. Once the group is seated, Thomas vomits his words of wisdom on his guests. He thanks his friends for supporting his young family with Kathryn. When Shep interrupts with a joke about T-Rav always referring to himself in third person, Thomas becomes more animated. Is it the Sharks and Jets? He’s graduated from The Glass Menagerie to West Side Story, it seems. Sorry, Tennessee Williams!
The guests giggle as Thomas offers up his sentiments. He praises Kathryn for her strength and growth since bringing Julien into the world before quickly turning on Cameran for being overly self-righteous and judgmental. Next, Thomas chides Craig for being a great guy who pretends to be someone he’s not. Shep interjects that Craig needs more of a ribbing, but Craig is a-okay with T-Rav’s roving assessment. Now in the hot seat, Shep blushes when Thomas urges him to check out the rusty diamond in his backyard instead of trying bed all of Charleston. Landon is giggling at this revelation until Thomas accuses Landon of being vindictive to his baby mama. Kathryn feels vindicated, but she can’t relish in that feeling for very long. Both Craig and Cooper attempt to diffuse the situation before Shep jumps in to remind Thomas that T-Rav has reveled in his friendship with Landon. A switch flips, and T-Rav goes on an insulting attack against Shep, complete with name-calling and insults. As Camaran and Landon make their escape, Cooper tries to calm Thomas who wants to engage Shep, who refuses to be engaged (because 1. he won’t take part in such silly nonsense; and 2. engage? As in a ring? Hell no, son!) by his host’s erratic behavior.
Craig ushers Shep out and the rest of the dinner party follows. JD believes that Thomas’ intentions were pure in defending Kathryn, but things went quickly awry. He shields his wife on the way out as Kathryn and Landon exchange words. Landon cites she’s never been anything but kind to Kathryn and Kathryn retorts that she sounds like a dolphin (I swear, I’m not laughing at any of this madness). Cooper is still trying his damnedest to calm the beast that T-Rav has become, as the majority of this guests pile onto a golf cart. Landon slams the gas (or battery?) on her cart as T-Rav lunges at passenger Shep. Cooper grabs Thomas and forces him back inside. Thank goodness someone is trying to contain the mele!

Everyone who watches Real Housewives of Orange County knows how much Vicki Gunvalson loves working and talking about her businesses and subsequent wealth. Vicki is the epitome of work hard, play hard. Whenever she isn’t turning up, she is making money.
Vicki hasn’t met a business deal that she hasn’t liked. So it’s not shocking that she has something new in the works. But what does Vicki have going on this time?

Sorry to tease you with that one, but it really wasn’t my fault to leave you with the cliffhanger there. Blame Vicki for that one. She shared a photo of herself with her son and business protege Michael Wolfsmith.
In the caption Vicki wrote, “Having a great meeting with my son Michael in Scottsdale. So excited for all of you all to see the new venture I am getting ready to launch. Stay tuned, we are so excited. @jrretxt @mikewolfsmith
#insurance, #charity, #helpingothers,#doingthenextrightthing.”
Well this is interesting. I don’t get why Vicki just didn’t announce her charitable venture, but then again there are people like me who are writing about this pre-announcement so maybe she was onto something with this one.
But let’s be honest here, getting involved with something charitable is a much-needed move for Vicki– especially if she is being sincere about it. Vicki put the whole country through the ringer last season when she stuck by Brooks Ayers while he lied about cancer on national TV. So this is a very good PR move. Hopefully she is getting involved with a cause that she genuinely cares about because people are so tired of her insincere nonsense at this point.

The list of James Corden's Carpool Karaoke celebrity guests is star-studded. Adele, Gwen Stefani, Demi Lovato, George Clooney and Julia Roberts are just a smidgen of the megastars who...Tonight’s Watch What Happens Live was nearly a Southern Charm reunion episode, minus T-Rav and Kathryn Dennis, although they were the topic of conversation. In the clubhouse tonight: Cameran Eubanks, Whitney Sudler-Smith, Landon Clements, – and later on in the episode – Shep Rose.
Andy reveals that Landon’s ex-husband was once married to Stacey Dash. Andy remarks that Stacy is dumb and then corrects it to “she says dumb things.” Landon just giggles and says they’re in a good place so she’s not messing it up by saying a word.
Landon giggles again when they play a clip of Thomas jumping out the window. “That’s how I feel every time I’m around her. I just want to climb out the window.”
Andy says again that he’s sorry for calling Stacy dumb.
Andy plays a clip of Kathryn explaining to Craig that she had a relationship with Whitney. He’s been waiting to give his side. He first deflects and snarks about adopting her and her kids and co-parenting with her and T-Rav. Andy says “you clearly had something going with her.” Whitney says “for one night. Fun for TV, however there’s no truth in the matter, but I wish her the best.” Andy says that he seems very defensive about it. Whitney admits “I was very defensive about it because, #1 I was hammered on moonshine and the absurdity struck me a little harder than it should have. So, yes, I did overreact.”
Cameran jumps in “I think Whitney feels like she completely exaggerated their relationship.”
Andy asks what they know about Kathryn failing her drug test. Landon says “That it’s true. And that’s all that we know. It’s heartbreaking and it’s hard to watch and be a part of it, but there we are.” Cameran says it’s sad.
Why do they accept Thomas‘ behavior but judge Kathryn and ice her out? Landon snipes “he passed his drug test.” Andy says “no, this is before that. You’ve been judging her behavior.” Whitney jumps in and says they’ve been pegged as mean, snobby, exclusive people to this poor, helpless unwed mother, “when in fact she is a drug addict, violent sociopath and we want nothing to do with her.” He says this has been going on for two years and they don’t want to associate with her because of it. “It’s indicative of what we’ve been dealing with.”
On everyone questioning the paternity of Kathryn’s children, Cameran says she believes they’re his but even if “one of them wasn’t, he would take responsibility for it.”
A viewer asks if the three of them feel that they treated Kathryn unfairly this season? They all say no. Landon says “We’re old and we don’t care. I just don’t want to be involved.” Cameran says “we don’t want to be dragged into ‘issues’.” Landon adds, “they have a saying in the South: if you lay down with dogs, you’re going to get up with fleas.”
Landon says that she and Thomas never hooked up. “We’re just friends and I think that was Kathryn’s biggest problem because the friendship I have with Thomas is what she really longed for. It’s sad and I tried to be Kathryn’s friend and she just wasn’t having it. We were friendly for a minute and then she just turned on me.” Cameran adds that Thomas is too loose-lipped. She says if he hooked up with Landon, he would’ve told somebody because he can’t keep a secret.
Shep Rose enters the clubhouse halfway through the show.
A caller asks if they think Thomas and Kathryn will ever get back together? Cameran says no but Shep says “they get back together every other day!” Shep then reveals that he believes Thomas has a bet with someone in his family for a large sum of money if he never talks to Kathryn again. Shep can’t reveal the amount and admits that he doesn’t even know if the story is true. Whitney says it’s true and it’s $100,000, but he clarifies that the “bet” is that if Thomas talks to her he has to pay this certain someone $100K.
Andy is flustered, saying “he’s raising his children with her, of course he has to speak with her.” Whitney clarifies that the bet is that they can’t “get together.”
Poll Question: Shep and Landon: Yes or No? Cameran says No because they’re too good of friends and Shep loses interest too quickly. Whitney says no, too. “They might have sex and he’d be bored the next morning.” 76% of the viewers voted NO.
Kathryn Tweeted during the show, “The 3 biggest liars #WWHL this is hilarious watching. These creatures are sincerely creeping me out with their utter devotion to writing me off of #southerncharm as well as to slandering me. Ew.”

Heather Dubrow, benevolent dictatress and ever-so-snarky voice of reason on Real Housewives Of Orange County, is known for her calm, collected, witticisms that shoot through the BS like Lysol through a Mexican bachelorette party. She’s also known for her fabulous wardrobe, but that’s a whole ‘nother topic!
In anticipation of season 11, where Heather will finally unveil all 14 of the bathrooms in her massive new mansion, we’re remembering some of our favorite moments of Heather’s hubris – like the time she threw a fit over transporting her cake for her Colette champagne launch, and later we discovered the cake was fake!

Could Olivia Pope handle a baby? We can't really picture her raising a kid at all without the help of a lot of nannies, let alone amidst the busy and occasionally very dangerous...| Channel 5 and Big Brother have become aware that Andrew Tate has posted a statement on Facebook about the circumstances of his departure from the Big Brother House. What Andrew says in that statement is completely false. Andrew was not removed because of his actions inside the House. Nor was he removed for tweets allegedly posted by him prior |
Considering there are so many Big Brother 18 cast rumors of returning veteran houseguests, we have come up with some alternatives to the scenario that might fix one of the inherent problems: inherent alliances with newbies vs. returnees.
First, it is obvious that people do not like the “coach” twist, which I think was pretty clear and I would not expect CBS Big Brother to do this again. For about a month or two now, I’ve been thinking it will be 8 newbies and 8 returning house guests. This is primarily because even though they still had casting calls, they did significantly less casting and recruiting this year than in the past. This would make sense if they didn’t need to fill the full 16 slots with new cast members.
Therefore, my prediction seems possible. It’s not the end of the world; however, there is a problem with a mix of fresh and former Big Brother houseguests. It creates inherent alliances and often turns the show into newbies versus returnees, especially at the beginning.
The main problem with this is that often, returnees are much better at playing the strategic game and tend to dominate competitions. This means that the block always consists of newbies, and since you can’t take two off (considering one is removed with the Power of Veto), the newbies get picked off until there is some crossover of the alliances.
While we want good players and good TV, it’d almost be more fair if you use one of the first 5 that went home. They aren’t always bad players, and often, they go home because they seem like good players. If they don’t seem like good players, they may be unpredictable and untrustworthy which can make for great TV.
Take Devin Shepherd from Big Brother 16, for example, he definitely played too hard too fast, but he made for good TV. If he returned, at least we know he’d be entertaining! His game play may also fit better with a different set of house guests. However, he might have trouble building alliances since he was definitely unpredictable, such as when he invited Amber Borzotra and Christine Brecht into the Bomb Squad alliance without talking to the other members.
If you have returning houseguests who aren’t Top 5, you may have a better chance at a good fight. Since they went home so early, their strategic game didn’t have the time to build. In addition, they haven’t competed in as many competitions as the top players. You also have to account for the fact that the players in the Top 5 have known strategies since almost their entire game was shown on national TV (and the Big Brother Live Feeds). With players who went home early, we have yet to see their true game play which would be similar to having new players since we wouldn’t necessarily know what to expect. In addition, by going home early, they may have trouble building an alliance, even being all returnees who went home early which may prevent the inherent new versus old alliances.
A few other new versus old options that would break the inherent alliance barriers also include a twist. You could have 8 returning house guests and 8 newbies; however, the newbies would be someone that they know – such as a close friend. This would make it hard to form an alliance with only your respective group of houseguests since you would want to align with your friend.
The same could be true if every returning houseguest had a relative as a new house guest. Kind of like a Survivor Blood vs. Water style game. This could be any relative – from a sibling to an aunt or uncle to a cousin. For strategic purposes, I kind of like the “friend” twist better because it’d be easier to hide who you know which would allow you to have a secret alliance. The same could be true for a non-sibling family member, but there could still be some features that look the same.
This article isn’t meant to be speculation or fuel any more rumors. It is meant to be thoughts behind what they could do with veterans which might help with the main problem facing a mix of houseguests.

Remember when I said I just like to think of what’s going on with the Southern Charm stars as the show airs instead of their present day antics? This post is precisely why (well part of it at least). There is actual good news and rumored bad news with the Bravo’s volatile couple.
Thomas Ravenel took Kathryn Dennis, his ex-girlfriend and the mother of his two young children, to family court last week (with a hearing on the merits scheduled for June 27th), and while we don’t know what happened during the motion hearing, we do know that Thomas is posting pictures with his daughter for the first time in months. That’s good news, right?

After claiming Kathryn wouldn’t allow him to see his children unless he coughed up more money, T-Rav posted a picture on his Twitter yesterday, captioning it: “Kensie beating the heat!” This update came on the heels of the below photo of the precious toddler getting a haircut.
Of course those father-daughter moments can’t top T-Rav traveling today with both Kensie and baby Julien–as well as treats from Bill Murray! How have I still never had a Bill Murray sighting? The man is everywhere down here! Thomas and his brood were on a plane with the movie star who gifted Kensie with candy.
While these updates drew both excitement and disdain from his many followers, but I think we can all agree that the child looks incredibly happy and thank God for Dawn. While Thomas is falling back into the role of doting daddy, things aren’t going as well for Kathryn, according to FitsNews.
The site reports that the breakout star of Southern Charm has allegedly failed a court-ordered drug test, citing unnamed sources from her attorney’s office. Holy potential ethical violation, Batman! Sounds like someone needs to clean house…and stat! However, the source didn’t reveal the substances allegedly found in her system (nor the kind of test allegedly administered).
If you ever wondered why I chose to practice real estate law, it’s because I would never be able to remember to use “allegedly” in all necessary instances. That said, I am happy to see those adorable babies so happy…but who wouldn’t be thrilled with a Bill Murray encounter? Also, Kensie looks over the moon in the pool picture. It’s probably more fun than the last time she and T-Rav shared some pool time! Sorry, bad joke, but I couldn’t resist. 
Don’t forget there’s an all new episode of Southern Charm on tonight!

Sure, every show in the Real Housewives franchise is unique is, but there are certain elements that carry through in every series. Although each Housewife is unique, there is pretty much always one person in each show who is a real stickler for etiquette- and wants every single person to be aware of it.
These are the ladies who live by a set of social rules and love to remind the other cast members about it whenever they possibly can. You know who I’m talking about and there’s one of these girls in each series. Sometimes these ladies are just genuinely trying to share some guidance based on their past experiences. And other times these are the kind of women who just like to hear themselves talk about etiquette over and over again.
CLICK “CONTINUE READING” FOR MORE
For the most part, Heather Dubrow really plays off her focus on etiquette very well. At first I didn’t know what to make of the woman nicknamed “Fancy Pants,” but I am a honestly a fan. She is definitely more refined than the other ladies on Real Housewives of Orange County and she does share her two cents about etiquette pretty often, but for the most part she really isn’t judgmental of the other woman. And I’m not trying to be shady, she’s BFF’s with Tamra Judge, so clearly she does not care if her friends are less polished than she is.
When Real Housewives of New York started, Luann de Lesseps would not let anyone forget that she is a Countess. I distinctly remember a scene from the first season when she corrected Bethenny Frankel after she introduced her as Luann instead of “Countess de Lesseps.” She even wrote a book called Class with the Countess about etiquette tips. But then Luann got divorced and she unleashed her inner cougar and I was all about it. So she was getting wild, but still sharing her etiquette opinions with everyone even though it can be argued that she was behaving in the same ways as her peers. But that contradiction makes great TV and I live for it.
Phaedra Parks is all about being a Southern Belle on Real Housewives of Atlanta. She has no problem calling out the ladies when she feels like they are out of line. She is just a little bit confusing though. She can talk about being a prim and proper church lady in one scene and twerk in mesh, thong bikini the next. Don’t get me wrong, I feel like you can be a lady in the street and a freak in the bed, but Phaedra’s persona can be confusing at times. I feel like she’s just trying to do it all- and yes, Phaedra also wrote a book full of etiquette tips.
When it came to the Real Housewives of New Jersey, it was hard to think of someone who is the standard perfectionist when it comes to etiquette, but Caroline Manzo comes pretty damn close. Sure, there’s nothing super refined about the Jersey cast (which is why they are so great), but Caroline was constantly pushing her Italian family values on everyone. So I feel like she would fit the bill for the New Jersey etiquette queen- it’s just a very different set of rules.
I didn’t know how I felt about Yolanda Foster when she first joined the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills cast. I remember her saying “There’s nothing uglier than a drunk woman” and I wondered if she had any idea what show she was on. And then she had all of those awkwardly structured dinner parties that seemed to be far from fun. Over time, it seemed like she started to loosen up and accept the other women- but at the same time, these are the least wild women in the whole franchise with the exception of Brandi Glanville so I feel like she shouldn’t have been fretting too much.
We’ve only had one season of Real Housewives of Potomac, I’m already done with Karen Huger CONSTANTLY talking about etiquette and how she is the queen bee of Potomac society. I keep going back and forth trying to decide how I feel about her as a cast member on the show, but I’ll tell you one thing: I am beyond over her constant etiquette tips. Who is Karen Huger anyway? I just have no idea why she thinks she has such high authority over the city of Potomac. I get that she’s been around for a while, but I think that she could still be a proper lady and actually be nice to people. I have no idea where the attitude comes from. I feel like she could have at least waited for season two to pull that shit out.
I cannot stand watching LeeAnne Locken on Real Housewives of Dallas. With that said, I have to be honest and admit that there would be no show without her. Still, I could really do without her constantly talking about the so-called “charity world” nonstop. If I wanted to play a drinking game watching the show, I would get wasted if I only had one rule: drink when LeeAnne talks about etiquette. She is beyond obnoxious and her constant chatter about social rules actually makes her look tacky in an ironic way.
Some of these ladies use their wisdom to educate the people around them and others just need to chill out and stop being so self righteous. Nevertheless, they all play an integral part in the Real Housewives franchise and it wouldn’t be the same without them.
Speaking of etiquette (or lack thereof) – tonight is an all new episode of Real Housewives of Dallas. Tune in to the comments section here to chat, analyze and have some fun.

In the...Well, well… it may just be Jenelle Evans‘ lucky day when it comes to custody of Kaiser, because Nathan Griffith has just been arrested again!
This weekend Nathan was arrested in Myrtle Beach, SC for disorderly conduct, public intoxication, impairment and endangering himself and others. This is perfect timing for the Teen Mom 2 train wreck – today he and Jenelle are due back in court for a custody hearing related to Kaiser. Jenelle, mother of the century, is currently trying to secure full custody by proving Nathan is unfit. Which is sort of like Pot calling the Kettle’s bottom black!

A representative for Myrtle Beach PD told In Touch Weekly that 28-year-old Nathan was arrested for disorderly conduct, and that he attempted to resist arrest, but refused to give additional details.
Good for Nathan – he’s spent almost 5 months handcuff-free! He was last arrested in February when Jenelle accused him of breaking into her car and stealing her belongings at the airport while the devoted mother was on yet another vacation with her current boyfriend David Eason.
In response to Nathan’s latest arrest Jenelle boasted on twitter, “At least I can say I’m staying out of trouble.” For now…

While Nathan’s mug shot roster is nothing compared to his esteemed ex-fiance, he’s no innocent – in addition to the larceny charge (which I believed was dropped?) he has a whopping 3 DUIs, and a domestic violence arrest or two – plus he previously lost custody of his daughter Emory. Isn’t it funny that Jenelle and Nathan didn’t work out – they’re sort of a match made in hell!
Jenelle and Nathan will be facing off again on Part 1 of the Teen Mom 2 reunion this week where Nathan accuses her of using drugs again. Lovely.

People love to hate on Kim Kardashian, but she (or someone on her team) is always coming up with some pretty innovative ideas. Pretty much everyone has copied her mobile video game and her Kimoji app by coming out with their own versions and NeNe Leakes is the latest star to join in on that trend.
At this point, you’re not even a celeb if you don’t have your own emoji app. So it was only a matter of time before NeNe hopped on board the emoji train. Her new mobile app is called Nemoji-naturally, but she did things a little bit differently than the other celeb app entrepreneurs.

My understanding is that NeNe’s Nemoji app is a combination of being a celeb video game and an emoji app. According to the official Nemoji description this what users can expect: “The app features Nene-inspired Emojis that include several of her famous sayings such as BLOOP, CLOSE UR LEGS TO MARRIED MEN, GIRL BY and many others. In addition the users will have access to several Stickers and special Dressing Room featuring items from Nene’s very own closet that enables the users to ‘Come Play With Me.’ In the dressing room the users can dress Nene with their choice of her hairstyles, clothing outfits, shoes and accessories.”
I’m kind of confused about whether the dressing room is actually a game with levels of achievement or if it’s just something fun for the users to experience, but it does seem like she is combining these two common celebrity app experiences into one.
And just like other similar mobile apps, the users have the option to connect to their social media accounts to share their usage with friends.
If you are an Apple user with an iPhone or iPad you can download Nemoji right now, but if you have an Android, you will have to wait until later this month to get it on your device.
