Bridezilla Tries, Fails to Scam Venue with Painfully Obvious Fake Tyrannical Meltdown

We’ve all heard some wild bridezilla horror stories , but most of them are about brides-to-be being cruel or unstable for no good reason. In this case, however, the bridezilla’s tyrannical meltdown was part of a scheme. There was a method to her madness. Fortunately, the venue for her reception found a clever way to end her reign of terror. Reddit may be generally viewed as a cesspool by much of the internet, but the site does have its gems. For example, a former hotel employee opened up about about a harrowing encounter with a deeply memorable bridezilla. On Reddit’s bridezilla forum, a post describes a woman’s dramatic meltdown … which appeared to be part of a deliberate scam. The post’s author shared that they used to work at a hotel that was particularly “popular for wedding receptions.” The hotel was noted for its “beautiful grounds for photos, great food, and a lovely dining room.” “We had a wedding coordinator who made a wedding plan book with everything you could think of,” the post reads. It continues: “from colored ribbon samples balloon choices food lists you name it, it was in this book and the bride got a copy of everything,” “Brides were invited to view the room the night before the reception,” the former hotel employee explains. They are invited to do so “to approve table placement and we had one table fully set as an example with flowers etc.” That makes a lot of sense. But nothing is ever good enough for a bridezilla. … “Bridezilla turns up late for her viewing,” the post’s author recalls. “And goes crazy.” The post says that this got “to the point we thought she was having a psychotic break.” “…the china was the wrong pattern, the silverware was wrong, the glasses weren’t cut crystal,” the OP describes her complaints. The post continues to list her gripes: “the flowers were wrong, the ribbons were the wrong shade.” To hear the bride-to-be tell it, “everything was wrong we were ruining her wedding.” “Everything we had done was right according to the wedding book,” the former hotel employee points out. The clever wedding coordinator had made sure that “everything checked with the bride and literally signed off.” “(She made the bride sign for everything as it was picked and any changes were signed next to),” the post notes. “Her fiance went out to the car,” the post reveals. “And brought in a file with her dream wedding reception in it.” “She had literally pasted cut out articles from magazines over her copy of the wedding book,” the former hotel employee writes. It seems like this scheming bridezilla was “thinking we would honor it at the last minute.” Clearly, there was a method to this woman’s madness — she wanted a free upgrade. “So,” the post shares. “She was told that she either abided by the contract she made with us.” She could do that “or she could have her dream wedding but no reception and the hotel would sue her for the costs.” “The reception went ahead without a hitch,” the author triumphantly reveals. “And,” the post adds. “Everyone said it was wonderful.” “Thank god for Valium,” the reddit post concludes. “I think (the coordinator) had dealt with bridezillas before and came up with the book out of self-preservation,” a commenter suggested. “Everything was documented and signed,” the comment continued. “Stops the lawyers making money but it doesn’t stop a bride from losing their s–t though.” “The book and contract have all the markings of ‘lessons learned the hard way,'” another redditor observed. “That is an exceptionally smart wedding coordinator,” praised another commenter. “She has all the receipts!” View Slideshow: Bridezilla’s Bizarre Demands Go Viral: Don’t Talk to Me and Don’t You DARE Wear Makeup!

Khloe Kardashian Claps Back at Mom-Shamers: I CHOOSE to Spoil My Daughter!

When it comes to fending off Internet haters, Khloe Kardashian is no shrinking violet. She’s a pro’s pro. When it’s an issue she cares about, Khloe is totally willing to defend herself and set the record straight with HER TRUTH . Khloe did just that this weekend after she came under fire from mom-shamers accusing her of spoiling her daughter True. Khloe is known for lavishing her affection on True with the sweetest presents, outfits, and parties. It may seem a little excessive, but that’s the Kardashian way.  On Saturday Khlow posted an Instagram video of True checking out her latest gift, a brand new car! Okay, so it’s not a real car. But it is pink, and sparkly, and pratty dang cute. True is now the proud owner of a toy Bently GT convertable, made by Luxury Kids Car Club. Their website describes their products as “Ultra Exclusive Cars For Kids.” Starting at $2,000, and with a ton of pricey optional features, this toy Bentley could easily cost more than a lot of people’s actual car. As the wage gap in this country soars ever onward to terrifying new heights, it makes sense that some found Khloe’s gift a bit tasteless. But this was on social media, so in lieu of respectful discussions, we get sanctimonious lectures from mom-shamers. “Great, another Kardashian in a Bentley,” wrote one angry commentor. “You are so oblivious to how your spending looks to the outside world,” the commentor went on. “I really loved your family’s story,” they added, “and now just can’t bare to watch as you spend all this money on worthless materialism.” “It’s so sad,” the commentor concluded. Khloe must have felt pretty attacked by this to respond at all, but when she did, she responded with a poise and grace she isn’t always able to muster . “Umm, you know this is not a real Bentley?” Khloe replied, “It’s a toy.” “No reason to get sad over a baby in a toy car,” she asserted. “Either way I’m sorry you feel that way,” Khloe added. Trying to keep things positive, she went on, “I hope you have a great weekend!” “Focus on things that make you happy! Smile,” she concluded, adding a smiley face emoji. The mom-shamer apparently appreciated Khloe’s tact, because their next response took a much friendlier tone. “Appreciate you responding,” they wrote, “Just figured it’s something to be thinking about.” The commentor continued, “You have so much influence and know you’ve had a positive impact on so many.” The concluded, “Always ways we can improve as people, though – myself 100% included.” Look at that newfound respect! Khloe responded once more, to share her truth about spoling her daughter. “I appreciate this message more than your first,” she began, adding that she was also able to better digest the commentor’s point. “I hear you,” she said. But she didn’t quite agree, countering “I personally don’t believe that all we do is spend money on worthless materialsim.” Khloe went on to explain that she can sleep well at night because she knows she is a good person, and “Life is all about balance.” “Yes, I do choose to spoil my daughter,” Khloe admitted, both “with love and as well as with material items.” But Khloe concluded “She will also be raised with values, responsibilities, chores, respect, self love.” It seems like Khloe knows that it’s not just about gifts with kids. There are important lessons we must pass down to our children.  But, gifts are nice too. And if you can totally spoil your child and still raise them to be a good human being, more power to you! Khloe handled this hater really well, and turned the interaction into something almost friendly. This is a great example of how we can forge new connections by responding to negativity with kindness. It doesn’t always work, and it’s important to recognize those moments too when they come up. But it’s so nice to see an Internet clap-back turn into a chance for two strangers to understand each other a bit better. View Slideshow: Keeping Up with the Kardashians Finale: Khloe Goes KABOOM!

Orange is the New Black Trailer: New Blood, New Rules

Are you ready for a return to prison? The furlough is almost over on Netflix. Orange is the New Black will return for its fourth season on June 17, with all 13 episodes of the comedy dropping at once. Netflix style. In the first extended trailer for all the action and humor and drama to come, we see Piper saying how she's more afraid than she's ever been before. This likely has something to do with the fact that Litchfield is now a for-profit business, which means over 100 new inmates will be coming on board. As for Taystee? She appears to be Caputo's new secretary, though she's having some trouble on the job. The preview also gives us a look at the new, violent guards… along with Blair Brown as Judy King. She will be a full-time cast member in the role of a Martha Stewart-type of character who is stuck behind bars. Lolly will apparently have some business at the shed, while Alex will have a big secret she needs to tell Red. Why is Gloria hanging around a guard? Why is Suszanne in the infirmary? Is Sophia still in SHU? We have so many questions. And we can't wait to get the answers when  Orange is the New Black Season 4 returns on Friday, June 17.
