The Real Housewives of Atlanta: Season 6 Episode 12 “Sour Grapes, Sour Peaches”

Okay okay, what is going on on the Real Housewives of Atlanta? Why is it that a friend of a friend or another couple is introduced in every other episode? Are they testing out couples to bring a new one to the table next season? Is Bravo trying to see who will stick? More and more a friend is being introduced to us and they always rub me the wrong way! It is like they are trying to come to the show and “turn-up” so they get their spot on camera.

First, there was Kandi’s BFF Carmon, who was supposedly sleeping with Todd, then Kandi’s gang of grannies which include Mama Joyce and her sisters who came to stir up trouble. And should we include her manager, Don Juan? He is always being vocal about where Kandi spends her money, which is in part his job, but he seems to be doing too much when it comes to hearing about Todd.

In addition to Kandi’s additives, NeNe brought a couple who tried to light up a fire. Chuck who is apparently an ex Atlanta Falcons player and his wife Mynique (with a Y). She stuck her foot half way down her throat bringing up the past relationship of Kandi and Chuck. Well, she got more news than she bargained for hearing about Phaedra’s past with him also. And Kandi’s past included more than she could handle. I just thought it was very tacky of him to come try and question Phaedra about bringing him up when in actuality, his wife should have kept that door shut. He tried to play them and he’s the one trying to get on. Boy stop!

And finally, this episode brings ex singer/actor Christopher Williams (friends with Cynthia and Peter) and his wife/common-law/girlfriend, Natalie (no shade). Natalie mentions to Cynthia that Todd (yes, Kandi’s fiance) is an opportunist. She didn’t say that word exactly, but she really did allude to it, also mentioning that he cheated on her friend back in the day. Which really, who cares? Everyone has a past. Any who, Kenya brings up that she is old friends with Christopher and questions his marital status with Natalie. Kenya should just mind her own damn business! She has no man or husband and if he did in fact say that was his girlfriend years ago, they could have fallen in love and gotten married since. Right?!

Once Natalie was standing up for herself which Kenya well deserved, she stuck her foot in her mouth by back pedaling on what she mentioned to Cynthia about Todd. Do you follow? Yes, it is a bit confusing, but try to keep up! Kenya opened that can of worms, Cynthia clarified and Kandi was there to back up her man. Preach Kandi! In the midst of her rant, she decided to throw shade to Cynthia stating that she knew Peter from the past and did not hold that against his relationship with Cynthia. To which Cynthia responded and defended her husband. Kandi claimed “no-shade”, which I kind of got her point. Who cares who you knew in the past, everyone knows we all grow up sometimes. Natalie continued to deny and Kandi put a check mark on it, “that lets me know that you think I’m a bad bitch…Todd has came up! (paraphrasing)” And Natalie sat there confused.

At the end of the day, why are all these outsiders bringing in so much drama? Sheesh! Not to mention Cynthia’s sister Malorie who popped up for two months, Cynthia agreeing to let her stay and it affecting her relationship with her husband? Cynthia needs to learn to put her foot down. And I am sick and tired of Kenya’s assistant always speaking up as if he’s an invited guest. News flash: you were hired to assist. That is a job, not a friendship.

I must say, Bravo got it right one time with the friends or “B” cast members. That my friends is the charismatic, always social and stylish shade queen herself, Marlo! I cannot get enough of MARLO baaaabbbaaayyyy! I think they could add her to the show, but let’s be honest, that gay slur she spouted off on a previous season, has canned her from that position. Do not quote me on that, because I do not have an inside, but Bravo is run by one of the fav’ gays, Andy Cohen. And that word is not to be mentioned on television or anywhere else for that matter. What do you think?

I am excited about next weeks episode. The shit really hits the fan when the men are included in the midst!

Married to Medicine: Brawling in Ball Gowns

Married to Medicine: Brawling in Ball Gowns

Married to Medicine is yet another show set here in Atlanta and adds to the dramatic figures I live amongst and come across on a daily basis. One of the best reality TV show brawls I have seen was on Bravo’s new show, Married to Medicine. And believe me, I have been watching reality TV since the second season of MTV’s Real World, which began in 1993. One year after the very first season of reality TV to really “jump off”, so to speak. Back then, The Real World was a 30 minute show and on that ’93 casting in LA the world met Tami Roman for the first time. I remember her hot temper which began my obsession with drama on television. She definitely has not calmed too much over the years considering her new reality gig on VH1’s Basketball Wives.

Well this brawl in particular was one that was almost hard to watch because the atmosphere was not fit for a fight and had I not seen the previews before the show actually aired, I would not have been prepared for the event that was happening before my eyes! I mean, two women fighting in ball gowns was complete ridiculousness! And for it to last as long as it did was complete non-sense. I am usually juiced when it comes to two train wrecks fighting over nothing. This one still was so crazy! I kept playing it over in awe at the event that left me feeling embarrassed, confused, excited, surprised and bewildered all at once. Let us have a short recap before I “go in” on my very passionate point of view.

Mariah and Toya were not the best of friends on the show, but they had a mutual respect as doctors wives to have a speak and go relationship. They clearly have two completely differing personalities that almost seem like oil and water. So Mariah Huq is like the glue that holds the crew together. Each cast member knows Mariah in some aspect so the show was somewhat centered around her. She is also a producer on the show which proves she is not just a doctors wife. With that being said, Toya seems to be more like a follower. She likes to make a lot of comments downing the other women in a “confessional” aspect. She talks to her husband about moving to a new home to show others how successful they are. She comes off like a “show-off” and a typical household attempting to keep up with the “Jones’s”. Whether her husband can afford to or not, most logical families would not move in an effort to portray an image to irrelevant people that surround them. Buying a home should be a move you make because 1. you can afford to and 2. it is the home that makes you and your family comfortable. So Toya strikes me as inconsistent, inauthentic and insecure of her status as it compares to Mariah. And in fact, besides both of their backgrounds growing up in lower class neighborhoods, she really cannot compete with Mariah. There is NO comparison.

Unknown

Now, Toya was overheard doing what she does best, talking about one of the other ladies. Not only was she speaking negatively about Mariah, but she is so pathetic as to bring up the fact that Mariah’s 8 year old daughter is adopted by Mariah’s husband, Dr. Aydin Huq. Not only is this very low class of her, it is also none of her business to spread whatsoever. This conversation is what starts the ball rolling to the fight of the season. Mariah hears of this through her sister, Lake and her mother Lucy does not hold back her negative tone when it comes to addressing Toya at first sight.

Mariah and Kari Wells, wife of Dr. Duncan Wells, are both hosting a joint birthday party for their husbands who were both born in October. Each lady put in funds to pay the cost of the party; however, it is being held at Kari’s home. Once Mama Lucy sees Toya at this party, she addresses her. Not about the comments that Toya made concerning her granddaughter, but negative comments to Toya in general just so she is aware of her feelings toward Toya. Toya, like anyone, does not take too kindly to Lucy’s tone. Mistake number two is Toya’s reaction to Lucy’s comments. Not only does she feel like it is appropriate to address Mariah about this at her husband Dr Aydin’s birthday party, Toya approaches Mariah while she is entertaining other guests, cutting off the conversation Mariah was in the middle of. Playing respectful and being annoyed at the same time, Mariah walks off with Toya and lets her know that she is not to confront her about her mother, especially not at her husbands party. Toya gets defensive and begins to curse at Mariah then to add on, she begins almost pushing Mariah’s arm away from her. It does not stop there. Toya continues as she throws her glass at Mariah’s head and Mariah’s reaction is what we all expect, she swings her purse and pops Toya in the head with it.

Now that part was funny, but everyone including me was completely thrown off. Especially at a black-tie event. They were literally wearing ball gowns, five-inch heels and mink. Once the shock hit me I continued to watch mouth open for about five more minutes of the “ladies” pushing back and forth, trying to keep from falling into the pool next to them, until they topple over onto the outside furniture, breaking lamps and tables and falling to the ground. It is not until then that the guest reach them and attempt to break up the fight, which goes on and on because they are locked on each others heads pulling weave as hard as they can muster. Many try to step in unsuccessfully as they lock on to each other even more. Now I am thinking, OMG…this cannot go any further, and just as the thought leaves me, Mariah’s mother Lucy walks over and bashes Toya over the head with her purse, not even once…she continues until they eventually pull the girls apart. Now, I’m completely embarrassed for the husbands and their colleagues for their wives to have been displaying this type of behavior. I cannot lie though, I think Mariah was almost pushed against a wall of frustration and stated that very clearly, “First you talk about my child, then you approach me about my Mama, at my husbands birthday party?” Seriously Toya? Enough is enough!

The aftershock was also uncalled for. Kari, excuse me “holier than thou”, is very wrong for kicking out the second hostess of the party. She should have kicked out the guest no matter who started the fight. Not only that, the other women gather meetings to talk about how “wrong” Mariah is instead of calling her like real friends do to find out what actually occurred. Instead, they took Toya’s word for it, who was completely oblivious to the role she played in the fight. I would still be more kind to Toya if she took some responsibility for her actions. Instead, she lies to her husband, she burns her sons Christening outfit that was a gift given to him by Mariah and she comes up with schemes to get to the ladies first, pulling them to her side before they can hear the full story. She is a snake at heart and I cannot respect that. She proves how immature and ridiculous she really is.

I mean really, was it just me? What did you think about the brawl?

Real Housewives of New York: Let’s play catch up!

I love Carole! I am glad she is beginning to see how LuAnn is. She called LuAnn the “one-upper”. She said LuAnn, will, “one up you and raise you some crazy thing”. Which is definitely true! While the ladies are out playing croquet, the “royal wars” are on! Carole helps LuAnn to shut her face by quickly picking up croquet. And then winning the entire game. Heather starts to notice the tension between the two ladies. LuAnn is just being true to herself, annoying everyone around her.

Once Carol was speaking about her book, LuAnn cannot help to speak about her book. Then Heather talks about being a gymnast, and LuAnn chimes in and tells of her gymanstics. Carole starts to one up LuAnn and stating that she was on the football team. She is so hilarious! Finally, when Carole and Sonja leave the table and Heather decides to tell LuAnn about her annoying personality traits. It goes completely over LuAnn’s head and for once, she is not the topic of her own conversation, she blames everyone but herself about how the mood is around her. Go figure!

When Sonja gets back from London, she immedately goes to learn what she missed as far as throwing Aviva and Reid an anniversary party. Since her departure to London, Ramona has been helping out with the anniversary plans. The party was in what seemed to be a hotel lobby, which was fine for the other ladies, but weird for Heather.

Although Aviva tripped down the stairs at her own anniversary party, the real entertainment came from a singer, Cara Quici. Now I am not sure what party she should have been performing at, but this was not one of them. Heather took the words right out of my mouth, “is this for real”! It was so weird! I could not stop laughing! Still, the speeches made up for the entire evening. On the way out, Ramona and Heather cannot leave without a fight. It did rub me the wrong way how Heather said Ramona started it; however, Heather was the one who egged the situation on. She continuously followed Ramona around the room taunting her until Ramona ran into the arms of Luann. Ironic! 🙂

Later, Luann has a wine party and tries to set Ramona up for laughs. She has the ladies sit blind folded and tatse an unknown wine to decide whether they liked it or not. Then she had them differentiate the flavors that were in each bottle by smelling them. Ramona pasts the test with flting colors as she was able to name each flavor and each smell accurately. Much to no one’s surprise, the wine turned out to be Ramona Singer’s Pinot Grigio. Is that class Luann? She tried to set her up to look foolish but the tables turned all too soon.

Aviva plans a trip with Ramona to Miami. Since Carole will be there, they will get together while the ladies are there. She also invites Sonja since she wants to introduce her to a sex addict, Aviva’s father! Right! This should be interesting. Once in Miami, Aviva’s father is introduced. He is both handsome and suave. I cannot wait to see how Sonja receives him…

Real Housewives of Orange County: Finale Part 1

So the finale starts out nice, juicy and straight to the point! Alexis leads with questions about her husband, Jim who we last seen running away from Tamra, Heather’s party and his wife! First off let me say Alexis did step up her game as an “anchor”. I will give her credit for becoming “not-so-ditzy” and more articulate during her Fox segments.

Now, the good stuff, what is up with her attempting to explain why Jim controls her? What was her defense again, she does not get controlled? Does she really think she was asking his advice and not his permission? And seriously, why does she blame everything that happens on how everyone in the world mis-interprets her situation? I am glad Heather went in on Alexis about negative comments she makes, but tends to play the victim during all her quarrels. How was Heather interegating Alexis, as she claimed? Heather brought up a conversation that most people have when they buy and sell homes…how is it working out? The ONLY way someone can be offended by that is if something fishy is going on with the house. Anyway, let us come back to Alexis, because I could really write a book on her!

Congrats again to Tamra and Eddie on their engagement! And on the fitness studio she has started. That being said, Tamra did seem to have brought down her anger, but she often speaks before she thinks. I am happy with the honesty Vicki brought to the finale. She did admit to missing Tamra and being sad about their lost friendship. While I am a fan of the new Tamra/Gretchen friendship, It will be sad to see that old friends could not work things out. Once trust is lost, it is very hard to gain it back, especially between friends.

Also, there is some truth to Tamra having one friend at a time. And the fact that friends should never go after eachother’s mates. If my friend has a problem with my man, I would expect her to bring it to me. Not to go on a rampage and down talk the man I am with. Regardless if it is going to work or not, that is no ones business but Vicki’s.

I know I do not have the popular opinion on Vicki, but let us keep it all the way real…she does not care whether Brooks is just telling her what she wants to hear, she loves hearing it. She is very open about it and honest so I am sick of people dogging her about what she does for him. She is a grown woman. I do miss Don though! 😉 Okay so lay off Vicki, she admitted she was unhappy and jealous and that was the reason she was so negative, let her grow up and change…move on!

Heather really stepped out of her shell, not to say she is timid or un-opinionated, because we all know she is very strong. But, Heather left no stone un-turned. Not only did she call Alexis out on her “bull” about playing the victim. The “phony” word came up, as it should have. I do believe Alexis is the “phoniest” housewife (from the OC). Tamra and Heather should not be ashamed of being honest with Alexis. Because she cannot handle the truth, does not mean people are being mean. She is lucky they are open and willing to tell her the truth in order for her to be aware.

And who all believes Gretchen told Alexis about the confrontation in Costa Rica? (Raises hand) meeee!!! Alexis is a liar who tries to implicate others on her way down, so she threw Gretchen under the bus about her lip injections to throw the attention off of her. And BTW, who did not know that Gretchen had those lips done last season? We knew it when she answered “no, I didn’t” and her lips failed to move. That was funny!

What is not funny is the way Alexis allegedly speaks to the crew. She is such a bitch, who sits on her high horse talking bad about others, why would I not believe she is rude to others? She cannot take her anger out at home, so I am sure she dishes it out somewhere. What about the facebook page of Nordstrom employees who agree? If anyone knows the page, please send me the link or the name!

I cannot wait for next week. I wonder if Jim will be there to stand up for his woman! Bring it on (in your private jet) “Jesus Jugs”! 🙂

Real Housewives of New York: New Cast Members

The season began introducing us to three new cast members, Aviva, Carole and Heather. They are all pictured below…

Aviva Drescher is a NYC socialite. Though she has a law degree, she decided her best time spent was with her children so she has become a full-time mother of two. Aviva seems to be the sweetest cookie of the bunch and a great asset to the show. I admire her honesty and heart of gold that you will not find amongst most women. Her statuesque beauty leads you to believe she is perfect in many ways. She surprises the ladies and tells of her accident at six years old that left her without a leg. Her amputee leg you would never notice as she struts her stuff down the NYC streets. The girls have a curious time learning about her experience, but she handles the questions like a natural born leader. She has done a great job of playing the middle as both Ramona and Heather threw her under the bus on last nights episode. FUN FACT: Aviva is the cousin of funny lady and actress, Fran Drescher!

Carol Radziwill went from award-winning  journalism to best-selling author and last night she surprised the ladies with the great news, her book is being turned into a television series! Way to go Carole! She is very interesting, social  and funny, but manages to have a laid back personality. She strikes me as a modern day hippie with humor out of this world. I became very fond of Carole as soon as she was introduced on the show. The way in which she lightens up a room leaves me wanting more and more of her every week. She is one of the best additions to all the Real Housewives cast members. She has a charm and quality that I have not seen in any of the ladies since Bethenny Frankel has moved on. Another surprise on last nights episode was her admittance of being a Princess. Yes, what all little girls dream of! Carol shys away from the attention Ramona gives her title, still I must say I am with Ramona on this one. We finally have someone with better class than LuAnn. And that is not just speaking of her title!

Heather Thomson…oh Heather, where should I began? First off, let me introduce her….she is a very successful business woman with a background in the fashion industry. She has worked on the lines of Jennifer Lopez, Beyonce and Tina Knowles and Sean “PDiddy” Combs to name a few. Her greatest success is her own line of women’s shapewear, “Yummie Tummie”. I think Heather is a great addition when you are seeking drama. She pretends to be “drama-free”, but she would be the first in line for it, if it was not for LuAnn De Leseps still in attendance. Heather acts as if Ramona should know how she feels and she claims to be authentic, yet she will not be truthful with Ramona and outright tell her she is not fond of the other “fiery” characteristics. That is not even my biggest problem with Heather. Even if she “does not want to be mean” she keeps the truth from Ramona. Heather should not pretend to be friends by continuously inviting Ramona to other events and smiling all in her face. Just ignore her and stop with the fake friendship already! I agree that you do not have to invite any person to your trip that you do not wish, but the blatant attempt to leave Ramona out is a bigger dramatic play on “mean girls” than inviting all the ladies. Clearly, you want her to feel some type of way. I am not a fan of such passive aggressive behavior! I mean, you all are cast on the same show. It is not like Aviva is trying to get you to invite some creepy lady from around the corner.

Anyway, there are qualities that I like about Heather, but she needs to stop pointing the finger at Ramona. They are one and the same! Very much alike! Heather also goes out of her way to make digs at Ramona. At least I can say that Ramona is completely honest about her likes and dislikes. The funniest thing was Heather attempting to dress the ladies on last nights episode. She kept up the digs at Ramona, who already dresses as the business professional that she is. Ramona did successfully one up her by commenting on those hideous point-toe boots. I rewinded the DVR about ten times because my friend and I could not stop laughing. Ramona called Heather’s style “weak” for a fashion designer. She also added the comment about the boots… “what is up with those pointy-toe boots…they look like shit kickers…makes me want to kick the shit out of her!” Oh My Gosh, Ramona! That was the funniest thing I had ever heard.

It looks like Ramona does get left behind on next weeks episode. I cannot wait to see how this mess turns out! *Photos provided by Bravo TV Promo photos

Real Housewives of Orange County: Finale Part 2

Real Housewives of Orange County: Finale Part 2

RHOC is about to premiere the reunion which is said to be one of the best reunions of them all. Apparently, tons of information is cleared up and tension will be high between the Orange County ladies. In the second season finale, the husbands of Mrs. Dubrow and Mrs. Bellino finally have it out…well, almost!

Jim decides to show up to Heather and Terry Dubrow’s party a few hours late, claiming he was there to support his wife. Terry was eager to take Jim to the side and discuss all the talk around Terry [allegedly] calling Alexis, “the phoniest person he ever met” (which he did not). Being the class act that he is, Terry apologized for the comment, not even knowing if it was true. He continued by telling Jim how he really felt about Alexis when Heather walked up. Jim felt slightly threatened and Terry assured him that Heather would play a benign role in the conversation. So Jim sat longer to hear Heather out. Heather who began to explain her converstion with Alexis in Costa Rica and how it was coming from a warm, friendly place seemed to have Jim’s attention. Up walks Tamra and Jim shot for the door, leaving his wife Alexis in the party completely unaware of his absence. What happened to him being there to support his wife? Anyhow, Terry made an interesting point once Jim was gone. The truth is the truth no matter who is around!

Vicki and Tamra finally have it out! The group all ran to the table to be well informed about Jims dramatic exit from the party. They all gathered and of course everyone (Vicki/Tamra/Gretchen) made comments about who was friends and who sat next to whom! It is childish, but do not shoot the messenger! Brooks (Vicki’s new Boo), caught an evil eye from Tamra to Vicki and called her out on it. Tamra became very upset, rude and defensive about Brooks having an opinion. Gretchen made a joke that Tamra’s name and evil eye should not be brought up in the same sentence. That is in reference to Gretchen giving Tamra the evil eye hat, back when they were not civil! Too funny! Anyway,  Tamra should have voiced her opinion about Brooks to Vicki sooner instead of letting him have it all at once. Especially at Heather’s home and party. While I do not know if Brooks is using Vicki or not, I have stated before that is a conversation between two girlfriends that love and care for eachother. Vicki was right for walking away and telling Tamra to address this in private at another time. She was also right for scolding Tamra about disrespecting her man in the manner she did. Tamra took all the anger out on Brooks because she felt she could not talk to her friend Vicki that way.  What a shame! A friendship gone to waste. Vicki was indeed there for Tamra when no one else was, during her abusive ex-husband Simon’s reign. I love Tamra, but that was not the way to handle the situation. I hope some of these feelings are resolved once the reunion aires Tuesday night at 9:00pm on Bravo.

Real Housewives of New Jersey: Teresa VS. Jacqueline

Real Housewives of New Jersey: Theresa VS. Jacqueline

Last nights episode of RHONJ began with Lauren Manzo agonizing over her recurring weight issues. I do not know about you, but I am suffering through the moments of her insecure extremes that are being pushed on by her mother. Caroline has been very unempathetic to her daughters cries by calling her “fat” on the show. They could be a little more supportive in her efforts. I am sick of watching it over and over like a hampster wheel. They have the means to take care of her weight issues and try one thing after another. I do not claim to know the heartache of battling weight problems; however, any issue that constantly recurs on television without an outcome becomes rather tiring.

Rosie is always nice to see as a happy medium on the show. She had a converstion with Teresa where she not only disclosed how Teresa has been “acting” toward the family, she also listened to how Teresa has been feeling. This is something that has been lacking on the fouth season. Everyone has an opinion about Teresa, still they invite her into thier homes, without forgiveness, act as everything is cool with her, then bash her when she exits the room. I do not respect such two-faced behavior. Finally, on last nights episode Jacqueline decided to open up.

I am happy that Jacqueline grew a pair and decided to tell Teresa how she was feeling; however, she did not address her as a friend would. For one, it really is none of Jacqueline’s business what Teresa does with her home and her money. That is between Teresa and her husband how they should handle their financial problems. The crying and prying about Teresa was unnecessary and dramatic coming from Jacqueline. People do not have to disclose their entire life if they choose not to. What also strikes me as odd is how Jacqueline claims to be such a good friend, but anytime she hears a story about Teresa in two cent magazines, she takes the side of the magazine before she even addresses Teresa.

The text message nonsense for instance. Teresa said she did not get a text, but Joe Gorga said he sent one. Whether the text was sent or not, Jacqeuline heard Joe sent it and she immediatley took that for the truth before her “best friends” account of the story. That shows that she really does not care for Teresa and every chance she gets on camera alone she is dogging her to no end, but she continues to sit up and smile in her face. I mean really? Can you tell how annoyed I am with the situation?

Let us get back to the “throw down”. Jacqueline badgered Teresa from sun up to sun down about the blogs and how Teresa never discloses information with Jacqueline. So what! I am not claiming to know that Teresa is right, but I do feel she has the right to have her own business with her husband. Whether or not she sells stories to the press is irrelevant. It is her life and she can do what she chooses with it. There are a lot who feel as if Teresa is the liar, still I must admit to be a fan. She goes through trials and tribulations and instead of complaining about what has happened over her life, she decides to put on a good face and live her life. She does not have to sulk because the world thinks that she should.

What about that gang up by Jacqueline and Carolyn? Carolyn is just old and bitter and pretends to take the high road but is constantly in everyone else’s business but her own. The adult children she has are out of the house so she has absolutley nothing to do with her time other than blame Teresa for why her sister Dina does not want a relationship with her. The Manzos have been on episode after episode commenting on how stupid Teresa is for not having a better relationship with her brother. What does that make you Carolyn? Life happens, still do not pretend to be holier than thou like your “shit don’t stink”, so to speak! If Carolyn was as classy as she claims to be she would have addressed Teresa on her own and told her how she felt, rather than wait until Jacqueline de-friends her to do so. I am over that Manzo drama!

Finally, Joe Gorga and Teresa had a chance to visit a mediator. A bit confused by how good the visit was, but I am happy that they took the first step. After their session, they both decided not to take the therapist, Michael’s advice. He told them not to mention the past and as soon as they walked in the hallway, that was the first thing they discussed. They are funny! I like the way they keep saying “do therapy” as if it is an action. Good times and bad, you have to love that family!

Million Dollar Listing Los Angeles

Million Dollar Listing Los Angeles

If you missed Million Dollar Listing this week, Madison finally got the chance to confront Heather. I suppose they came to an amicable decision, which translates to a Donald Trump finger point followed by the words, “you’re fired”! Good for Madison! Heather should have known from her attitude toward her boss that she would be out the door soon.

If you have not been following, Heather has been dating Josh Altman and lacking in her work abilities. No one wants to deal with an employee MIA and coming and going to work as they please. Especially when they do not bring in revenue. So Heather finally cuts a deal to make money, well her boyfriend Josh hooked her up with a client. Although they had not gone into the situation looking to work together. She bought into a space that gave 50% of the profits to Josh. Which meant to Madison that she signed a deal with the devil.

Considering Madison and Josh are arch nemesis, she should have never signed a deal including him into Madison’s business. Umm, that seems like business 101. I guess she was distracted too easily by the “thing” she wakes up with in the morning. Good luck with that Heather!

The Real Housewives of Orange County Finale Part 1

The Real Housewives of Orange County Finale Part 1

RHOC debuted part 1 to the season finale last night. Heather threw a party in honor of husband, Dr. Terry Dubrow by legally changing her last name to his after 13 years of marriage. The night started out regal and fun until Sarah picked the bow off of the cake. Who does that? For those of you who don’t know, Sarah is the obnoxious friend of Gretchen who followed Vicki around a bowling alley, but claimed to be Vicki’s victim! Right!

This time around Alexis brought her to the party, as an uninvited guest, because her husband would not join her out with the couples. I don’t know about you guys, but there has been a lot of “back talk” and seperation between Alexis and her husband Jim. When she first began filming RHOC a few seasons back, they were practically joined at the hip. Nowadays, not so much. I do hope they work out whatever issues they are having, as no one roots for a divorce; however, Jim reminds me of Tamra’s ex-husband. A control freak whom you wouldn’t be surprised if a domestic violence call would be reported against him. I’ll keep my eyes open.

Vicki, whom I used to adore, is having some issues with Tamra, her ex-BFF. What is with that? Vicki and Tamra should just respect eachothers decisions in life and stop trying to run the others. Friends are suppose to be there through all decisions good or bad and to help to pick up the pieces. They spend more time judging the other that they have began to lose their once special relationship. So what if Vicki wants to spend her last dollar on her man and so what if Tamra wants to hang out with other people. Such is life!Tamra does have foot-in-mouth syndrome; although, she has grown a lot this season and I am a fan of the Tamra/Gretchen friendship. They were the two funniest on the show anyway.

So of course, Alexis never mentioned her issue with her ex-BFF Gretchen. Tamra and Vicki were both mums. I didn’t like that Tamra wouldn’t talk to Vicki, but made up with Jeana Keough! Whaaattt??? Jeana is a beast and a bully in her own right! Her daughter Kara looked fab, but pulled a childs prank by putting on a parka claiming she didn’t want Tamra to throw a drink on her. Tamra should have left that entire situation alone. Jeana was very mean and spiteful to Tamra when she was going through her divorce with Simon. Why does she keep making end of season appearances anyway? Heather doesn’t even know Jeana. Maybe she gets paid for her one last episode. Anyway, I’m sick of her!

On a lighter note: Where is Peggy? I loved her, but Heather is a great addition to the show. And Congratulations to Tamra and Eddie on their engagement! Part 2 will be interesting! The Tamra/Vicki saga will unfold. Let us see how this one plays itself out!
