The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Recap – Meeting the Other Woman

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills rolled out “Vanderpump Rules” with lots of self pity in high heels.  We recap the whining and dining in our THG +/- review. So back to Kyle’s dinner party that won’t end…at least not until Brandi’s been driven away in tears. Minus 15. Of course Kyle doesn’t feel bad until Brandi is running from her home crying and still she justifies Faye’s tirade saying she’s just being protective of Adrienne.  Minus 10. Kyle runs to a sobbing Brandi in the street but if she really cared she would have told Faye to drop the subject long before it got to this point. The truth is that Kyle loves the drama.  That’s why all of her dinner parties end in disaster.   The next day Kyle invites Marisa over for some back yard yoga.  What she’s really doing is trying to justify her behavior to someone she hopes to impress and it’s kind of pathetic. Plus yoga and gossip really don’t mix. Minus 8. The funny thing is that Marisa liked Brandi more than any of the other Housewives. She’s the only one who went out of her way to make Marisa feel welcomed as the new girl.  Plus 18. Taylor tries to shake off the bad energy of Kyle’s dinner party from Hell by inviting Alicia into her home.  Alicia’s a what? Did they even say?  A medium/psychic/spiritual advisor? In a nut shell she spews a lot of new age nonsense, hands out magical rocks, and dispels the negativity form Taylor’s home. Plus 20 because even Taylor seems to have trouble keeping a straight face. I almost felt sorry for Taylor. Not only do her creditors want her 10 carat diamond wedding ring, they also want two of her designer handbags.  The nerve! Minus 11 because seriously, giving up a wedding ring can be hard no matter how bad the marriage. And having a former friend turn on you is never fun. But at least now Taylor can move on. Adrienne makes a brief appearance with Paul and you could cut the tension between them with a knife. It seems they’re only here to plug their new skincare line. Minus 7. Whatever their secret that cannot be named is, it seems to be taking its toll on their marriage. Yolanda has as small a role in the show as ever. Minus 12 . Why is she even here other than the beautiful views from her home.  Her life is far too happy for her to be a Housewife. However she does take the time to lament the cost of having a horse because in Beverly Hills, even they have their own maseusse. Plus 10 . Even the horses here are pampered. Lisa’s on hand to ask Brandi a favor.  Will she sit down and speak with Scheana, the waitress who had an affair with Brandi’s ex-husband? Huh?!?  Seriously? Why is this necessary and what self respecting friend would ask such a thing? One pimping her newest reality TV show.  Minus 22. But Brandi sits down with Scheana who whines and sobs that she didn’t know Eddie was married.  She claims she was young and dumb. Well, it’s hard to argue with that.  Plus 10. But who on earth wants to hear the gory details?  Brandi was married to Eddie and pregnant with their second child while he was screwing this bimbo on their boat and giving her diamond necklaces.  Minus 30 . Ugh! As Brandi said, “I know your were f**king my husband. I got that.”  Enough already. Scheana thinks herself the victim too since Eddie later dumped her and moved on to Leann Rimes.  Is she seriously looking for sympathy from Brandi?!? Minus 45 . So Scheana is being set up to star as the sympathetic home wrecker for Bravo’s new show “Vanderpump Rules.”  Can she be redeemed? So far, I’m not impressed.   Episode total = -102!                                     Season total = -273!

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Recap: Who’s the Mean Girl Now?

The Real Housewives of Beverly HIlls brought back “Oy, Faye” to do Kyle’s dirty work. We recap all the bullying and back stabbing in our THG +/- review… We revisit Paul and Adrienne’s tirade at Mauricio’s event and Kyle’s very upset about Brandi throwing out the F-word.  Hmm…apparently Paul screaming and calling Brandi a b*tch multiple times is OK though because in Kyle’s opinion he’s just defending his wife.  Minus 12 for the double standard. Taylor’s practically hyperventilating. That type of violent behavior from a man towards a woman hits all of her buttons but Kyle’s got little sympathy for the former abuse victim.  According to Kyle, “This is not about you, Taylor. Moving on.”  Minus 15 . Taylor takes her moment to make a dig about the tendency these women have for exploiting personal issues to the public. She’s still ticked off at Camille for revealing her husband’s abuse on camera.   Camille insists this is completely different but minus 20 because how the heck are we suppose to know if no one will let the viewers in on Adrienne’s big secret? Finally Kyle gets around to telling off her sister.  Plus 10 . Kim definitely could have picked a more private moment to break the bad news…whatever it may be. Kim insists she was just being a good friend…but she fails to realize she was being a lousy sister. But Kim does bring up a good point.  This entire mess started because Kyle pushed Brandi for answers about her rift with Adrienne.  Minus 9 . She got her answers. Be careful what you wish for. Yolanda manages to stay out of the fray. She’s off with her personal trainer and now I see how she keeps her model figure. Plus 18.   Not to mention that her trainer is 57 and looks 37.  Talk about a testament to the power of exercise. Kim takes her son Chad who is turning 21 to Vegas for his birthday. Before going she checks out the AA meetings there. Plus 25. That’s a positive step for being prepared for the inherent challenges of a party town like Las Vegas and shows that Kim’s taking responsibility for her sobriety. She also blew off her sister who didn’t get an invite to the party.  I suppose Kim just didn’t need one more stressor and right now that’s what Kyle is for her. Luckily for Kim, she’s out of town when Kyle manages to throw yet another dinner party from Hell. Kyle considers disinviting Brandi but decides that would be rude.  Minus 20 because apparently letting one guest bully another isn’t. So once again we get to spend an evening with Faye.  Why?   The woman is a loud mouth bully. She’s also a good friend of Adrienne so anyone with half a brain can see where this is headed.   Brandi admits she would have backed out of the party if Kyle had wanted her to.  Plus 10. I’m sure she wishes she had. Instead Kyle encouraged her to come so she could deal with Faye.  Brandi tries to side step the issue but Faye’s not about to let it go.   Then Faye and Kyle insist that Brandi needs to send Adrienne flowers and an apology.  Minus 13 . Seriously, does anyone think a bouquet of flowers is going to fix this?  Everyone at the table is completely uncomfortable except for Faye who is in her glory. if Kyle wasn’t the biggest trouble maker of the group she’d tell her guest that this was no longer a topic of discussion and move things along.  Minus 22.   She’s not about to do that because she loves the drama as much as anyone no matter what she says. When Marisa tries to point out that this is a private matter between Adrienne and Brandi, Faye will have none of it.  Not only won’t she let Marisa have a part of the conversation, she continues to harass Brandi until she leaves. Minus 25. With all of their talk about mean girls, Kyle and Faye only need to look in a mirror to find them. Episode total =  -73!              Season total = -171!

Rihanna on Drake-Chris Brown Drama: Just Crazy!

If Rihanna didn’t feel like she was the only girl in the world before this week, the violent nightclub altercation between Chris Brown and Drake – or at least their entourages – certainly could be seen as an ego boost … or just scary. She is, of course, Brown’s ex and Drake’s friend, collaborator, and rumored hookup. For her part, she was at a different club, with Brown, earlier in the week, but Rih was nowhere to be found at W.I.P. when things got ugly Wednesday. She heard about it, though, says a source who claims Rihanna “loves this! Men fighting over her? Are you kidding? Of course she loves the drama .” After a deluge of texts telling her what went down, “She just laughed. She’s spoken to both of them and just thinks it’s crazy. She’s glad she wasn’t there!” “She just wants to be friends with both of them.” Clearly they have different ideas. Brown tweeted a pic of a serious gash on his chin after a member of Drake’s posse allegedly hit him with a bottle. Drake has denied “any wrongdoing” through his rep, but Brown and his attorney have pointed the finger at the Canadian rapper and his entourage. A member of Brown’s posse may have been the primary aggressor, however, as reports suggest he was making gang signs and death threats at Drake. Neither star is considered a criminal suspect in the incident. Rihanna hasn’t taken a side … but you can!
