The Real Housewives of New York City: See the Season 11 Trailer!

It seems like it was only weeks ago that we watched the The Real Housewives of New York City Season 10 reunion . Now, Bravo has released the trailer for Season 10. The trailer itself, as you can see, is a work of art. We cannot wait for the actual season to begin. The Real Housewives of New York City is returning for Season 11 on March 6. We are nearly at February, the shortest month of the year. March is not far off at all. Season 11 will pick up with elements of Season 10. One of those is Dorinda's “Jovani” heckle. You can bet that Luann didn't forget. Another blast from the past is Tinsley's quest for a husband. But the trailer stars with Bethenny pulling up and calling Sonja Morgan a “hooker,” so you know it's off to a good start. Catcalling is fun if it's from your friends. There is a lot of partying and very little context in early parts of the trailer. We of course recognize the stunning Halloween costumes . There's also a butt. Bravo usually reserves its peaches for The Real Housewives of Atlanta , but made an exception. We also see a number of the Housewives making out with each other, which isn't hugely unusual party behavior. Speaking of parties, they head down to the Sunshine State — to Miami, specifically. If the timing of one of the clips were slightly different, people would be accusing Bethenny Frankel of being a witch. At one point while everyone is living it up in Miami, Bethenny admonishes Sonja. “Go to f–king sleep, now,” Bethenny insists. (You know how some people get super bossy when they're drunk? Well, Bethenny takes that to whole new levels) Sonja just … collapses and falls out of her chair. We don't think that this was what Bethenny meant. Speaking of Bethenny (when are we, in our hearts, not speaking of her?) but on a much sadder note … In the trailer, a tearful Bethenny can be seen coping with the sudden death of Dennis Shields . “There was a lot in my mind about him dying,” she admits. “I could not get off the ride,” Bethenny says of their on-again, off-again relationship. “I feel guilty,” she confesses. “That the only way I could get off the ride is that he’s dead.” It is normal to have mixed feelings about the death of a loved one. It is part of coping. Luann de Lesseps is, of course, doing much better than she was a year ago. “Nine months ago I was in jail,” Luann cheers. “And now I'm a cabaret star, it's insane!” She laughs with glee and is clearly pouring herself into her stage work. This does seem to bring her into conflict with Bethenny for a moment that we just had to turn into a .gif. “I can't even believe you act this way,” an exhasperated Bethenny lashes out. “‘Cabaret, cabaret, cabaret!' Life is not a cabaret!” Bethenny insists, which would make a hell of an audition for the villain in a musical. Finally, Bethenny tells Luann: “You're insufferable!” We hope that the two of them managed to patch things up after this outburst. Bethenny, Dorinda, Sonja, Ramona, and Tinsley are joined this season by Barbara Kavovit and Jill Zarin. While there are a number of friendships among the Housewives, this will clearly not pressure them to hold back. It looks like just about every possible conflict comes to light, and we cannot wait to see it all play out.

A Real Bravo Bash: Nearly 50 Housewives From EVERY Franchise Attend Andy Cohen’s Baby Shower

On the (Bravo) party scene… Andy Cohen’s Baby Shower Andy Cohen had an epic bash for the impending birth of his baby boy via surrogate. The Bravo host/exec had a beautiful baby shower at The Palm Beverly Hills that brought out housewives from EVERY franchise; Beverly Hills, Orange County, Dallas, Potomac, Atlanta, New York, and New Jersey. The bash which was organized and hosted by OGs Kyle Richards (Real Housewives of Beverly Hills), Vicki Gunvalson (Real Housewives of Orange County), Ramona Singer (Real Housewives of New York City), NeNe Leakes (Real Housewives of Atlanta), and Teresa Giudice (Real Housewives of New Jersey) included a “A Star Is Born” theme. The color scheme was white and baby blue with gold accents and according to PEOPLE guests dined on Chinese chicken and lobster cobb salads, salmon with mango salsa, filet mignon, chicken paillard, grilled asparagus, fried potatoes, spinach and grilled polenta cakes with key lime pie, crème brûlée and chocolate chip cookies for dessert. PEOPLE adds that nearly 50 Housewives from across seven franchises came in to party including LeeAnne Locken (Real Housewives of Dallas), Gizelle Bryant (Real Housewives of Potomac), Dorinda Medley (RHONY), Sonja Morgan (RHONY), Shannon Beador (RHOC), Tamra Judge (RHOC), Erika Girardi (RHOBH), Margaret Josephs (RHONJ), Dolores Catania (RHONJ), Lisa Rinna (RHOBH), Jackie Goldschneider (RHONJ), Brandi Redmond (RHOD), Stephanie Hollman (RHOD), Candiace Dillard (RHOP), Ashley Darby (RHOP), Karen Huger (RHOP), Gina Kirschenheiter (RHOC), Emily Simpson (RHOC), Kameron Westcott (RHOD), Teddi Mellencamp Arroyave (RHOBH), Jennifer Aydin (RHONJ), Danielle Staub (RHONJ), Cynthia Bailey (RHOA), Robyn Dixon (RHOP), Denise Richards (RHOBH), Eva Marcille (RHOA) and more. In a surprising twist, Phaedra Parks who’s missing this season on RHOA was in attendance. This is, of course, fueling rumors that she’ll be back (where she belongs) on RHOA. The ladies apparently had a blast at the shower, so much so that they started dancing on tables and twerking. Oh Cynthia, that twerk…. Now THIS looks like a good time. More from Andy Cohen’s big Bravo baby shower on the flip.

The Real Housewives of New York Season 10 Episode 22 Recap: Bethenny Frankel vs. Carole Radziwill

It was the end of the line for Bethenny Frankel and Carole Radziwill on The Real Housewives of New York Season 10 Episode 22 , as the two women admitted it was time to move on.  Radziwill was quick to reveal that Bethenny’s harsh comments about her in the confessionals were too hurtful to move on from.  “The season made it over for me,” she told Frankel on Wednesday’s finale. Watch The Real Housewives of New York City Season 10 Episode 22 Online “When you watch the confessional interviews, I’m seeing what you said about me. About not having a job, not having a husband…” “I didn’t understand until I watched the show and I realized I was really, really trying to salvage our friendship and you didn’t seem that interested,” Radziwill continued.  “And I only can imagine because you knew what you had said at all those confessional interviews.” “I was trying all season to come back from this,” Radziwill said of Bethenny’s comments.  “At the end, I was like, ‘Thank god we’re done with this season. Thank god we can go back. We can just regroup.’ And then I started watching the show…” All of the above suggests that Radzwill was on board for another season of the Bravo hit, but it looks like things changed once she watched the season back.  Bethenny’s comments “made me sad but also angry,” the departing cast member said. For Frankel, Radziwill was just as bad what with her blog post and Instagram live to bash Bethenny.  “The season would not have made it over,” Frankel said. “The bashing with the blogs and the bashing with a friend made it over. … It was really mean.” Bethenny continued to claim that Carole had changed and that was the reason for the dunking of their relationship.  “You’ve changed too,” Radziwill fired back. “You’ve become catty and gossipy. I didn’t change. With this being Radziwill’s final episode, she did open up about her biggest regret: Not patching things up with Frankel.  “My regret was that Bethenny and I could never get to a place where… I thought maybe by the end of the season we would be speaking and then reconnect,” Radziwill said. “Because that friendship was important to me. And that never happened.” “I wish that we had had some kind of conversation so we could have put it into context,” she added. “It was just hard. I tried. That’s my regret, that I failed.” At the top of the episode, Carole got into it with Andy. He was furious that she said he was “full of shit.”  Andy has the power to hire and fire on this franchise, so he was likely shocked at the way she spoke to him.  Carole claimed Andy was scared of Bethenny Frankel, to which he replied: “Yeah, I’m scared of her.” It was ridiculous, but the most telling moment was Andy asking Carole about her regret from the season. “Is yours telling me I’m full of shit?” he said with a serious look on his face.  Could this be the REAL reason Carole is out of the series?  As for the way this reunion concluded? Tears. Lots of tears.  Bethenny turned to look at Dorinda upon being asked what her biggest regret is, and said the following.  “My biggest regret of the season is if I did say, ‘a drunk’ — because you and I heard it the same way when we saw it on TV — but if I called you ‘a drunk,’ I regret saying that to you on television.” “Thank you, Bethenny,” Dorinda replied while crying. “That actually means a lot.” “But I will say for the record, in the moment, we both heard it: ‘You’re drunk,'” Bethenny added. “But anyway, I own what was on the show, and that’s fine, and that’s my regret.” “Um, I think — that actually means a lot to me,” Dorinda said, pointing at Bethenny.  “It’s so stupid — it’s at the end of the show,” Dorinda continued, before meeting Bethenny for a hug. “It means the world to me.” “I tried to be as compassionate as I could while I was there,” Bethenny replied. “And I saw it, and I was like, ‘Oof,’ you know? I really did.” Dorinda then admitted she could not answer, and Andy moved on to Tinsley.  She admitted that she was mad at herself for shouting “Shut your mouth and shut your f–king legs!” at Sonja.  Sonja claimed she also regretted “opening that wound” with Tinsley.  And that’s another season in the can! What do you think of the conclusion? Hit the comments below.  View Slideshow: Bethenny Frankel: Quitting The Real Housewives of New York City Over Dennis Shields’ Death?

The Real Housewives of New York Season 9 Episode 1 Recap: Talk of the Town

It would not be a Real Housewives of New York City premiere without a good old cheating claim to get the drama started.  On The Real Housewives of New York City Season 9 Episode 1 , LuAnn De Lesseps was shocked to hear about a new cheating claim about her fiancé, Tom D’Agostino.  When the episode got underway, we picked up with Bethenny Frankel who opened up about her divorce from Jason Hoppy. Plot twist: It was finally over! Bethenny revealed she got her apartment sold within 24 hours at the price she wanted for it. That’s practically unheard of but pretty great for Bethenny.  We then switched gears to LuAnn, who was still excited about her wedding. If you watch The Real Housewives of New York City online , you will remember the string of cheating allegations against Tom.  She opened up to her good friend Dorinda Medley about the wedding during a stroll in Central Park. She also dropped the bomb that she only wanted positive energy at the event.  That probably ruled out the likes of Bethenny and Sonja attending.  “The group is fractured,” Dorinda acknowledged to the camera. “I hope that as a group, we can get past it, but when it comes to Sonja, I just don’t know.” Dorinda revealed that Sonja had been trashing her at any given opportunity.  “It’s not going to end well if she keeps it up,” Dorinda claimed. LuAnn dropped the bomb that Ramona Singer had called Tom’s ex-girlfriend in the middle of the night to try to get dirt on him.  That’s desperation right there.  View Slideshow: Ramona Singer And Her Eyes: 13 Ramotional Moments Later, Dorinda stopped by Carole’s apartment, and they got talking about the drama from the previous season.  “I feel bad that we really got off-track,” Dorinda said. “It hurt my feelings.” The ladies then decided to keep things “light and bright.” The best part of the season premiere was when Ramona and LuAnn met for lunch to hash out their issues.  “I heard it through the grapevine through friends that you’ve been stirring things up and being negative about Tom and I,” Luann said. “Why would you go and call people that Tom knows and try to find out stuff about him and his past?” Ramona blatantly lied, saying she was not seeking the information and that people were offering it up to her. She claimed it did not matter because LuAnn wanted to be kept in the dark about the past.  Ramona then revealed that Tom was on a date with one of his ex-girlfriends. LuAnn seemed in denial and thought this other woman was trying to ruin her nuptials.  View Slideshow: Real Housewives All Stars: Who Should Be Cast? “Why would she want to lie?” Ramona asked. LuAnn tried to reasons with Ramona, but Ramona was too concerned about LuAnn’s future to care.  “I know what I have,” Luann barked. “I am strong as a woman.” “You should advise your husband-to-be that it’s a very small city,” Ramona warned. “It’s a very small city. Tell him to reel it in.” LuAnn then urged Ramona to be happy for her.  “I toast to your marriage, and I hope you don’t fall on your face with him,” Ramona said. “I’m afraid he’s going to hurt you.” Something tells us there’s a lot of drama on the way for these two!

Game of Thrones Season 7: First Promo!

… And then there were three. HBO has released the first official trailer for Game of Thrones Season 7, and while it doesn't depict any new footage from upcoming episodes, it does give fans a pretty clear idea at which trio of characters will be featured most prominently. Here's a hint: One committed mass murder to conclude Season 6, while the other two have something very similar in common. Like DNA. Set to the song “Sit Down” by James, the trailer gives us a look at Cersei, Jon Snow and Dany each making their way to the Westeros throne. When we last left this beloved villain and her two foes, Cersei had just killed pretty much everyone and taken control of the Seven Kingdoms… … while viewers learned what had been hinted at for so long: Jon Snow and Dany are related. Will they finally meet on Season 7, which premieres in July ? It's very safe to assume. But the following footage also reminds fans that a battle for the throne isn't all that will be at stake over the final two seasons of this epic drama. Or, to be more clear, a battle for the throne between humans only isn't all that will be at stake. Another creature has a role to play this summer and beyond. You shouldn't need to visit our section of Game of Thrones spoilers to know who we mean. Click PLAY right now and then place your bets on the only question that matters: Who will win the Game of Thrones?

Vicki Gunvalson: LuAnn De Lesseps Thought I Was Hitting On Drunk Rey!

Vicki Gunvalson is always keeping everyone updated on the status of her love tank. So imagine her surprise when The Real Housewives of New York ‘s LuAnn de Lesseps thought the O.C. blond was moving in on her man. Gunvalson recapped the argument for Andy Cohen on the October 10th episode of Watch What Happens Live . At the time, the Countess was seeing Rey Setter, the high-brown hot mess she ran into at Dorinda Medley and John Mahdessian’s dry cleaning party. There, Setter tried to explain to Ramona Singer and Sonja Morgan that he and LuAnn were a thing, but he was a bit overserved so none of it really made any sense. According to Gunvalson, de Lesseps got territorial with her while they were all out together. “Luann and I got in a fight that night because she thought that I wanted him,” Gunvalson said. “I’m like, ‘I don’t want him, he’s yours.’ I just met him…I don’t know who he is, but she’s like, ‘Keep your hands off him’…he was all over me…who is he?'” Those frisky Housewives! “He was like, ‘I want your number, I think your beautiful,'” Gunvalson added. “Luann, you can have him. I’m good.” Setter posted a memo to his Instagram account back in May, clarifying that whiel he and de Lesseps did date, they were no longer together. “I know most of you would like to know, I was seeing Luann for about a year,” Setter explained. “We met at the NBC after party at NO8 in NYC, we had an instant attraction. Soon after we spent our weekends in the Hamptons, and Europe. Shortly after fall fashion week we mutually decided to go our separate ways. “I wish her all the best. #nyc #rhony #bravo #rey #tbt” De Lesseps is set to marry businessman Tom D’Agostino on New Year’s Eve in Palm Beach, even though he was caught making out with another woman last season on RHONY . Gunvalson, meanwhile, is dating retired cop Steve Lodge .
