Is Darci Lynne, the 12-year-old ventriloquist, the one to beat on America's Got Talent? It looks that way. The pre-teen dedicated her performance to Mel B after receiving the Golden Buzzer and...Even though Peter Thomas acted like a full-time cast member on Real Housewives of Atlanta, it was actually his ex wife Cynthia Bailey who was a Housewife on the show. With that said, it is not at all surprising that Peter would want to do his own spin-off show. In all honesty, I had no idea that Peter had a big enough following (or a following in general) to justify getting his own show, but obviously he would jump at the chance.
Peter never got to hold up a peach in the RHOA intro, but he might as well have. He was all about the drama on a show he wasn’t even cast for, so I’m sure he will stir things up on his own show.
According to the site Tamra Tattles– which is pretty much always right when it comes to RHOA scoop- Bravo has officially picked up a spin-off series about his sports bar in Charlotte.
The site also reports that Cynthia’s daughter Noelle Robinson might have some role on the show which is strange since she’s never been super present on RHOA, but I guess she’s growing up now.
The article also mentions that Noelle is “eligible to wait tables at age 18,” so I have to assume that this is like an east coast Vanderpump Rules and if that’s the case I’m all for it. Nevertheless, I can’t imagine Peter giving some sage advice à la Lisa Vanderpump, but just like every other show on this network, I will be watching… whether I want to or not.
At this point the show doesn’t even have a title and they have an intent to debut “sometime in 2018.”

Luann de Lesseps was in the hot seat once again with questions about soon-to-be ex-husband Tom D'Agostino while filming The Real Housewives of New York City season nine reunion just days...
Game of Thrones leaked. Again. But this time it seems it was HBO's oops. HBO Spain, the international version of the cable network for, yep, you guessed it, Spain, accidentally posted...As last night’s Dance Moms begins, Abby Lee Miller is no where to be seen. She’s two days away from her sentencing, and traipsing around Europe. Is it my birthday? It’s the greatest gift, for sure. Ashlee is is thrilled to bring in Laureanne Gibson, a choreographer and life-changer for stars like Lady Gaga, Beyonce, the Jonas Brothers, and Demi Lavato. Google her, y’all. She’s so tickled to get to work with young dancers and take a break from P. Diddy (Puff Daddy?) and Katy Perry to get the ALDC off their cuckoo for cocoa puffs hamster wheel. Laurieanne has won Emmys and MTV awards, she is ready to break down the monotony of the dance competition world. As she spouts off her resume and accolades and star proteges, Kira interrupts to remind her that this group is on a time frame. Laurieanne questions whether Abby has held back any of the dancers, and hands go up all over the room.
Nia tears up remembering how hard Abby was on her when she embarked on her music career. But guess what? Laurieanne is faster, stronger, better. She’s time, people. Like, literally, she said she’s not worried about time because she IS time. While I’m wrapping my head around this admission, I realize I’m just thrilled to be without the pyramid. When she dismisses the mothers, I’m like, Boom. She’s cray, but I love it.
Laurieanne preaches to her new tribe about bullying and oppression when discussing the group dance. She concedes that Abby is a brilliant business woman (aside from that whole jail situation), but Abby has lost sight of the girls. The mothers are in awe. They tout her as a life changer, but she soon has Kendall in tears as she berates her for being lazy. Damn. However, Laurieanne quickly turns it into a teaching moment, having Kendall scream that she’s not lazy. Kendall’s tears dissolve into a somewhat confident smile. Jill is pleased.
Across town, Christi is driving Chloe Lukasiak to her new studio as Chloe recalls how much she misses competing. She isn’t keen on going up against her friends, and Christi hopes that one day she can join her old team. Of course, that is what she says, but Christi is really, “game on, bitches” when thinking about Chloe upping her old teammates at this week’s competition. At ALDC, Laurieanne is letting the girls strut their stuff and showcase their skills with some freestyle in order to pick her soloists. she praises the moms for their daughters’ talents. The fresh choreographer laments her difficult decision before granting two new girls (Camryn and Maesi) and Nia with solos. Holly hopes that an emotional Nia will fare well with her new teacher. Across town, Christi is a bit concerned about how rusty Chloe is, but Chloe is determined.
As the moms wait in the viewing room, Ashlee is appalled to learn that Abby’s sentencing has yet again been postponed indefinitely. Holly huffs that she’s annoyed as a tax payer. Comment of the night! All the mothers realize that this revelation means Abby could show up at any moment and freak out about their choice to bring in a new instructor. Abby’s mantra is “everyone is replaceable” so hopefully she will understand. Sure she will. As Nia rehearses her “No Regrets” solo, Holly bursts with pride. Laurieanne attempts to break Nia like a victim of Stockholm Syndrome as the mothers sit in awe of Laurieanne’s hands on technique. However, as soon as Maesi starts practicing her “Black Sheep” solo, the mothers turn quickly. Maesi is no black sheep…she’s had ample opportunities under Abby. Holly takes a break from hating on Maesi’s mother (and her hair, if I’m honest) to take a phone call from Christi. Jill is livid to learn that Christi has her daughter competing against ALDC’s biggest rival. Holly hopes her friendship with Christi won’t put her in a position to choose sides because there is a lot of bad blood with the other veteran mothers.
Kalani, Nia, Kendall, and Brynn decide to grab some coffee and have some girl time. They share scripted conversations about what a great influence Laurieanne is and what an amazing learning experience this will be…but they are a tad bit worried they’ve only made it through one eight-count of the group number. The girls hope that things will be normal with Chloe when they see her, but it’s been a long time and things ended badly between Christi and Abby. Their rift trickled down to the girls as Christi hasn’t really let Chloe maintain relationships with her former teammates. As Camryn practices, her mother gets a tad too big for her britches and asserts that no one pays attention to the ALDC. If they did, her daughter would already be famous from being scouted. Kira bristles which leads to the obvious, “you’re just jealous my daughter has a solo and yours doesn’t” argument. Laurieanne immediately intervenes to stop the madness, but she side eyes Camryn’s mother when she learns the comment that started the kerfuffle. Maybe if Camryn could follow her instruction, her side eye implies.
Chloe is rehearsing with her new team, and she’s timid with her steps. This group has been together for a long time, and she’s messing up the small things–and getting called out by her new instructor. Chloe needs to figure out how to look like she’s been dancing with this troupe for years. When the team starts chanting, Chloe runs off in tears. She’s not a chanter. She misses her friends and wishes she was dancing with them. At the ALDC studio, the moms worry that so much emphasis on the group’s eight-count may create a random dance. Camryn’s mom gets back into the mothers’ good graces by finding some dirt on Abby on the Internet. The judge needed to postpone the sentencing, and Abby agreed as she has business dealings to tend to in Cancun. The moms are floored. Abby has no intention of returning to their girls. Color me shocked.
At competition, Holly feels strange walking in with a new choreographer and the awkwardness of facing Christi. Laurieanne attempts to pump up the girls, but she’s interrupted by some sort of antagonistic speech from Christi. It’s the perfect opportunity for Chloe’s new coach to gift her new dancer with a jacket. Laurieanne wants to know what beef Christi has, and Christi unleashes that the only girl who reached out to Chloe in the aftermath with Abby was Nia. Jill swears up and down that Kendall reached out as well, but Christi calls Kendall a liar who purported on social media that she tried to connect with Chloe to no response. Cue Kendall’s tears. Cue Jill’s screeching. Cue Christi’s cussing. Laurieanne steps in front of the women, and Chloe breaks away from her mother in tears. These poor girls. They’d all still be besties but for their ridiculous dance moms!

The post Dance Moms Recap: It’s Time appeared first on Reality Tea.
Well, the Big Brother 19 mob mentality continues. The house had almost exclusively shifted their poking the bear tactic to only Mark Jansen. However, the house decided it was Cody Nickson and Elena Davies’ turn to get called out for ridiculous things. The mad house of Big Brother 19 continues.
It was a rather low strategizing day, as it only revolved around the continuous downfall of Kevin Schlehuber‘s game, and how petty the Big Brother 19 houseguests can become. Hint: the house can go as low as Paul Abrahamian tells them to go.
Alex Ow gave Cody permission to have some of her Chex(C) cereal. Apparently, he ate all of it. Alex got pissed and started questioning him about why he ate it all, and he responded that he doesn’t care about any of them. Christmas Abbott, Jason Dent, Kevin, and others jumped in to attack Cody about other things, like not talking and being nicer to them.
They also tried to ask and confront him about whether Cody was lying about having a daughter. Eventually, he just told them that he didn’t care to speak to any of them and just wanted to be left alone for his remaining days in the Big Brother 19 house. When they finally did, he walked outside to be alone, and kept to himself the majority of the day.
The fighting then turned to everyone attacking Elena. They basically attacked her for the same things that they attacked Mark about: not being loyal and being a sneaky player. This argument mainly involved Elena against Josh Martinez, with some commentary from Alex. After the yelling concluded, there were several retellings of the arguments.
We were a little unsure if Paul was pretending to be anti-Kevin but would really protect him when necessary, or was he really trying to work to get Kevin out. Today we got an answer: he’s really working to get Kevin out.
Paul talked the whole day about Kevin being sketchy, as he has for days. So that was not the smoking gun about Paul’s true intentions. It was when he talked to Josh later in the evening, and hold him that Kevin was really the one that won the $25,000 that sent Paul back into the game.
Surprise, surprise, Josh already knew because Kevin told him on night one, right after he won it. Paul then went to tell Jason and Alex as well. However, Paul lied and said that Josh told him first, and then Kevin confirmed it. Jason had a hard time believing Kevin really won the $25,000, but Paul pressed the issue until he was (probably) convinced.
Paul told Josh that he wants to use this $25,000 thing at some point to completely destroy Kevin’s game. That’s a pretty clear indication that Kevin’s name is coming up pretty soon on Paul’s hit list, maybe even earlier than Matt Clines and Raven Walton.

Most of the viewers would have ever predicted the rift between Stephanie Hollman and Brandi Redmond– well that is until previews for Season 2 of Real Housewives of Dallas were released. Nevertheless, based solely on Season 1, the feud is pretty shocking since they were true BFF’s.
Brandi was upset after reading one Stephanie’s Bravo blog posts that she felt slammed her marriage and refused to talk to Stephanie for months… until they started filming Season 2, of course. There’s no way to get out of that contractually obligated interaction, especially since this still a new show and all of these cast members are replaceable. They saw each other for the first time in a while during the Season 2 premiere episode and Brandi refused to open her mouth when Stephanie went up to her at Mark Deuber’s birthday party. Even though hey did not speak during the episode, they both have a lot to say about everything that went down now that it has aired.
Brandi shared her thoughts on the first episode of the season in her Bravo blog. She wrote, “Wow, cannot believe it’s been a year since you knew what we have all been up to. With that, I know that everyone is dying to know what happened between Stephanie Hollman and myself.”
Since she can’t spoil the season, Brandi didn’t outright say that she and Stephanie are good these days, but Brandi did say, “First, let me start out by saying I love Stephanie Hollman. She will always have a special place in my heart and a bond that I know I could never replace. Our relationship was inseparable for over 10 years to almost a fault. We put each other first over our marriages in a lot of ways. I let things escalate between us.”
Aside from the super surprising rift between Brandi and Stephanie, the biggest surprise of the night was Brandi crying on LeeAnne Locken’s shoulder for support. That would never happen during Season 1. Brandi wrote, “AWKWARD!!! I did not want LeeAnne Locken to speak for me, nor get involved. I knew I didn’t want to speak to Stephanie with aggression because I know she doesn’t handle communicating that way. I knew if and when I speak to her that it would be with compassion and heartfelt.” But that’s not what happened and LeeAnne did end up serving as Brandi’s mouthpiece at the event.
Brandi admitted, “I also had the feeling of being replaced by Cary Deuber. I by no means replaced Stephanie with anyone. In fact, I kept my feelings bottled up for the most part to my direct family.”
Brandi told LeeAnne not to mention the text that Stephanie sent her to anyone, but LeeAnne didn’t even make it through the night before she confronted Cary about it. Brandi wrote, “Now to discuss the text, Stephanie sending the text was, in my opinion, a way of protecting me. I knew that LeeAnne and Cary had hung out, so why would Stephanie say Cary said that ‘LeeAnne was up to her old tricks again’? It made me think, that Cary had been saying negative things about LeeAnne. I know LeeAnne is trying to be this better person. So it seemed like a red flag. I honestly did not want anyone to get involved with the falling out between Stephanie and I. Watching, I can see where Cary was trying to stay out of it and LeeAnne stay in it, by speaking for me and bringing it up with Cary.” So does that mean that Brandi and LeeAnne are not as close these days? I guess we will find out eventually?
Brandi continued, “The text was something I wanted to bring up to LeeAnne, and by asking her not to bring it up at Marks party was clearly because the night is about Mark, not the ladies. This is also why I chose to not speak to Stephanie because it’s about Mark. I knew that if I did I would make a scene.”
It was so awkward when Brandi saw Stephanie. You could really tell that there was true sadness there and not just a rift for a reality TV story line. Brandi recalled, “When I finally decided to leave, I could barely get out the door without letting it all out. It’s like a break up with a boyfriend/girlfriend and then you see them and all those feelings come back…”
Then Brandi made a super interesting (and possibly offensive) comment about her feud with Stephanie: “Not having Stephanie in my life made my relationship with Bryan [Redmond] and my family stronger.” Yikes. I assume that she meant they grew closer together during tough times or something of that nature, but the wording was definitely a little off on that one. Brandi continued, “We traveled as families and spent time together verses with our husbands. However, I missed her and seeing her for the first time, brought back all of those feelings that I had bottled up.”
