The Real Housewives of Atlanta Recap: The Wig Returns

Posted on April 15, 2013 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

The Real Housewives of Atlanta Reunion Part 2 started out low down and dirty but ended on a surprising high note. Relive the egos, shadiness, and shocking reconciliations in THG’s +/- recap! So why did NeNe Leakes seem so rational this season? She says that in the past she hated having to watch her own craziness on camera week in and week out so now she tries to stay neutral. Plus 30 . She may not always pull it off but I applaud the initiative. NeNe claims that last season the other ladies were spreading lies and gossip about her that hurt her relationship with Gregg… ilke Phaedra Parks pulling Marlo into the mix. Supposedly Phaedra urged Marlo to come on the show in the hopes of stirring up trouble with the whole Charles Grant rumor. Minus 18 if it’s true, that’s just low. Phaedra swears she hadn’t heard the rumors about Marlo, NeNe , and Charles Grant until after Marlo joined the show. NeNe calls bullsh*t! I have to agree. All of it sparks a ridiculous exchange between Kenya Moore and Phaedra who probably couldn’t produce on fully functional brain if they put both of theirs together. Kenya yells out, “Phaedra’s the queen of low down and dirty.” To which Phaedra replies, “Honey, you don’t know me from Adam’s house cat. You’re just an obsessed fan.” Minus 15 . Can someone please make them stop? Apparently not before Phaedra claims that Kenya can’t even get an interview in the media if she doesn’t promise to talk about Phaedra. Wow! Someone’s got an ego bigger than all of Georgia. As NeNe said earlier in the season, Phaedra does a lot of things shady and undercover, even going to family to dig up dirt. According to NeNe, back in season one Phaedra contacted her half sisters to dish on NeNe. Minus 22 . Obviously NeNe’s still ticked. But really she should just ignore Ms. Phaedra. NeNe’s living her dream. Why get bogged down in this old drama? Plus 28 to Andy Cohen when he asks Phaedra if one of the risks of having a donkey booty is butt dialing. Then the wig makes her grand entrance…only sans wig. Kim Zolciak returns to set the record straight and wearing her natural hair. Andy’s so shocked he has to touch it. Plus 11 . Kim’s hair looks great. It makes me wonder why she chooses to wear wigs. As Kim takes the stage Kandi and Phaedra look like they could spit. Suddenly we’re back to arguing over Kim’s long list of serial excuses. Minus 17 . That was boring the first time around. Yeah, Kim took it too far but she was recently married, had a new baby, another on the way, two growing girls, and lost her home. That’s a lot on anyone’s plate, even someone with a full time assistant and a nanny…or two. In the end, let’s face it. Kim didn’t want to be here anymore. She got the man and the family she wanted and ditched these crazy ladies from Atlanta. I can’t really blame her. Kandi’s the toughest on her but that’s usually the way it works. There’s nothing nastier than a former friend. Minus 10. But they both agree that neither of them are great at communicating and they left a lot of loose ends when it came to business. Any chance they’ll work things out and somehow drop this lawsuit? And enough about baby names already. Kim has an actual baby and she named him Kash. Since Kandi isn’t even pregnant, I think it’s time to let it go. The biggest surprise of the night was Kim and NeNe. They were downright civil. Plus 13. Although they both admit to being in two different places in their lives, Kim says NeNe knows her better than anyone. That they were friends before this show started back when they were just living their lives. They might make one another mad as hell but there will always be an underlying respect. Damn. They even hugged. I really didn’t see that coming. Plus 21. I’m feeling all warm and fuzzy. I’m sure next week’s Reunion Part 3 will take care of that. EPISODE TOTAL: +8! SEASON TOTAL: -324!

The Real Housewives of Atlanta Season Finale Recap: Let’s Get Foxy

Posted on April 1, 2013 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

It’s the season finale of The Real Housewives of Atlanta and “Divas Into Focus” throws us a party where it’s hard to tell who’s coming and who’s going. We recap all the divorces and diamond rings in our THG +/- review. Before we jump into Kenya Moore ‘s party, or is it a gala? Does anyone know what the heck is difference? Let’s check in with the other Housewives first. Phaedra Parks drags Kandi Burruss to check out her next venture. Pretty pink stun guns called Phaedra Sparks. Seriously. That’s it. Minus 15. Supposedly Phaedra is a lawyer, a wannabe funeral director, and a wannabe fitness video producer, and now she wants to throw her name on a taser. So I guess when someone misuses one of her tasers and kills someone she can handle both the lawsuit and the funeral. Porsha and Kordell head to therapy. Plus 20 …in theory. Reality tells something different. We all know Kordell’s controlling but in therapy he comes off as an arrogant, self absorbed, ass. He tells Porsha that if her goal is to win an argument then she better be ready for disappointment because she’s going to lose every time. Minus 12. Hasn’t he ever heard that relationships are all about compromise? But it gets worse. When talking about Porsha’s miscarriage he tells the therapist, “As tough as it was for her, it was extremely overwhelming for me.” Minus 30. It’s as though Porsha’s feelings are always secondary to his. When it comes to marriage and raising a family it’s not that these two aren’t on the same page…they’re not even in the same book. Let’s head to Kenya’s party where the theme is iconic black women in film. If you thought that sounded like a fun night, boy were you wrong. Porsha decides she doesn’t want to look like a fool so she passes on the BAPS costume and comes as Dorothy Dandridge, the first African American woman to be nominated for an Academy Award. Porsha looks great. Plus 13. Kenya is furious. She claims she had events planned around each of the characters and now Porsha has ruined the show. Is that true? Kenya claims e-mails were exchanged. So maybe she’s got the right to be angry…but throwing Porsha out makes her looks like one crazy b*tch. Minus 18. The aftermath just gets crazier. Did anyone else notice that Kordell gave Brandon all kinds of hell on Porsha’s behalf but when two burly men were kicking his wife out of the party he was suspiciously quiet. Minus 11. The rest of the Housewives turn to leave in protest. As far as costumes go…Kandi looked kind of ridiculous as Tina Turner but it’s hard not to in the 1980s What’s Love Got To Do With It music video get up. Phaedra went over the top as Eartha Kitt’s Catwoman. Cynthia was suppose to be Diana Ross but you could hardly tell. Her outfit looked like something Cynthia herself would wear. Kenya rocked it as Foxy Brown. Plus 20 …but then NeNe came to town. NeNe Leakes was awesome as Grace Jones. Did anyone else notice that everyone was talking about leaving until NeNe got there and then they all turned and followed her back in. So funny. NeNe arrives and her entourage follows. And who ever would have thought that Miss NeNe would be the voice of reason once again as she talked Kenya down off the proverbial ledge. Talk about an odd season. In the end we find out that: Porsha and Kordell filed for divorce . Really? That’s all Bravo’s got to say on the subject. Phaedra’s expecting baby boy #2 and is producing a workout video…no competition is expected. Kandi and Todd are engaged. Congrats to the happy couple. Cynthia – She’s doing another pageant and helping NeNe plan her re-nuptuals. NeNe’s still jumping between Atlanta and Hollywood. Gregg gave her a 15 carat engagement ring! Kenya Is dating an African oil tycoon and claims her DVD is outselling Phaedra’s. I wonder if Bravo will release the real numbers on that. Next week we get to see it all unravel during the Housewives reunion show. I wouldn’t miss it. EPISODE TOTAL: -33! SEASON TOTAL: – 292!

The Real Housewives of Atlanta Recap – The Ticking Bomb

Posted on March 10, 2013 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

The Real Housewives of Atlanta proved the “Strip is a Trip” as we waited for the time bomb in the room to tick down to its inevitable explosion. We recap who set the fuse and who went pop in our THG +/- review. The ladies left Hollywood behind and headed off of to Vegas…via bus. Minus 12. Granted it was a nice bus but a bus ride all the same. Smartest Housewife award goes to NeNe Leakes once again for ditching the bus and flying first class. Plus 20 . I wouldn’t have blamed her if she made up the excuse about working just so she could fly. To kill time Kenya decides they should all do a little improv and try out their best housewife impressions. Honestly I thought that was going to go worse than it did. Best Impression award went to Kenya but not for the one on the bus. She and Cynthia nailed it in the hotel room when they were making fun of Phaedra. Plus 10 . Speaking of Phaedra, if anyone wanted to hand out honors for the craziest faces that girl would win hands down. How does she contort her face into those scrunchy shapes? Minus 8. Does she know she looks like that on camera? Before we finally get off the damned bus, Kandi performs the worst stand up routine in the history of housewives. Seriously? Orgasms and farting. Comedy is suppose to make you laugh, not go eww. Minus 19. Cynthia’s so tired she says she wants to use Phaedra’s donkey booty as a pillow. Minus 10. When the bus ride finally ends, the stripping begins as they all head to the Crazy Horse, sans Porsha. Kordell wouldn’t like it. You knew the ladies weren’t going to leave that one alone. Certainly Kordell seems to rule the roost but Porsha appears to like it that way. Even more disturbing was Phaedra feeling up the dancers. As NeNe said, “I thought she was gonna take a bite out of Hello Kitty.” I don’t even want to know how much you have to tip for that. Minus 15. On a side note, perhaps someone should tell Cynthia she shouldn’t be riding a mechanical bull without panties…that is unless she’s auditioning at the strip club. Minus 11. Not that I’m against the Bedroom Kandi party but did they have to travel all the way to Vegas to have one? Seems like they could have done that back in Atlanta. And I didn’t blame Porsha at all for not taking that pregnancy test. Plus 15 . Some things really should be between a husband and wife. The strawberry seduction game was more disturbing than funny. I saw more of Phaedra’s tongue than I needed to but when she took a jab at Kenya and brought up Walter one more time I really wished she would have kept it in her mouth. Leave it to Phaedra to throw out a hurtful dig and then act like she did nothing wrong. Minus 20. Honestly, I expected Kenya’s reaction to be more explosive. She only went mildly cray cray, at least it was mild for Kenya. Time to agree to hate one another and just move on. Episode total = -50! Season total = -307!

The Real Housewives of Atlanta Recap: She Might Be Cray Cray

Posted on January 28, 2013 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

The Real Housewives of Atlanta didn’t have to work very hard to “Make an Ass out of a Donkey” since there seems to be enough of both to go around. We recap all the jiggly booties and fishnet suits in this week’s THG +/- review. Oh, where to begin? We’ll start with our dueling booty videos. On the one end you have Kenya who is working out with a trainer to get the product…and her booty just right. Plus 15. On the other end you’ve got Phaedra, who seems more interested in the cover art than the workout. Between Ms. Parks’ tongue hanging out and the way she was hanging all over Apollo I began to wonder if this was a fitness workout or a porn video? Minus 11. And if Kenya was so sure she was in the right with her Stallion booty video, why was she trying to do damage control with Porsha of all people? Even their insults were lame. If ashy feet are the best you can come up with then just shut up and sit back down. Minus 17. Checking in with Cynthia I began to wonder if I’m the only one who thinks she gets a little less classy with every episode. Apparently there wasn’t enough money in modeling to keep the Bailey Agency going so she’s jumping into pageants which she readily admits she knows very little about. Minus 9. Cynthia found herself a pageant expert who started talking about the fees she could charge the mothers of 13 year old girls. Entry fees, make up fees, photo fees. The list was almost endless and the charges rang up from $75 to up to $1,200. You could just see the dollar signs sparkling in Cynthia’s eyes. And to ensure those dollars stay in her pocket she’s asked Porsha to help. Minus 20 . What on earth was she thinking? Has Porsha shown a talent for anything but giggling and looking pretty? It will be such a shock when this partnership falls apart at the seams…not! But Cynthia showed her true self when she started bashing Phaedra, her supposed friend. Minus 18 . Yes, they’ve had their issues but Cynthia seemed to take great pleasure in running to Kenya and stirring that pot. When did NeNe become the classiest Housewife on this show? She’s got an acting coach and a charity shoe event. No one can say she’s not making it happen. Plus 30. Then Kenya took the charity event on a turn into the bizarre. After Phaedra wore that fishnet bathing suit on vacation I prayed I’d never have to see it again. Unfortunately my prayers went unanswered. Minus 22. If Kenya wanted people to stop saying she’s cray cray, she really needed to stop acting like it. How funny was it when Kenya pointed out to Phaedra that she only attacked her professionally, then went on to attack her personally not 30 seconds later? Plus 10. I’ve always thought Phaedra was wrong to spread the rumor that Kenya was mentally ill. That’s not something to joke about but Kenya’s behavior does make me wonder if she missed her meds. Where does all the cray cray leave us? With Kandi mentioning she’d like to sing gospel. Maybe she can hook that up to her musical vibrators at Bedroom Kandi. Just saying. Episode total = -42! Season total = -125!

Real Housewives Of Atlanta Star Kenya Moore Puts Phaedra And Porsha On Blast “One Is A Liar And The Other One Is A Dumb Ho”

Posted on January 27, 2013 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Kenya might be ‘Gone With The Wind Fabulous’ but it’s clear no one likes her azz! Kenya Moore Talks About Porsha Stewart And Phaedra Parks She’s already in the middle of a feud with her The Real Housewives of Atlanta co-star Phaedra Parks over their rival “booty” workout DVDs . But now Kenya Moore is widening her pool of enemies by getting into a public – and very loud – screaming match with fellow housewife Porsha Stewart. Via RadarOnline reports: In a sneak peek of Sunday’s episode, the two women meet at a posh Atlanta restaurant to talk about why their relationship is going sour. Even before they begin, Kenya dramatically tells their waiter to “take the knives off the table, just in case.” She then tells Porsha she thinks Phaedra is poisoning their friendship, saying: “I feel like the whole reason that a…relationship [is] starting between you and Phaedra is because of a fall-out between me and Phaedra over a business situation . “And all of the things that she’s been saying about me are not true.” Porsha responds by saying: “I already knew that you and Phaedra have beef, or something going on. But whatever Phaedra’s telling me is not what has affected our relationship. “It just went real, real bad, real fast. Phaedra has never been in between that.” The discussion reaches fever pitch when Kenya accuses Porsha of being a “pawn,” saying she is trying to have a “grown woman conversation” with her. But the fur really starts to fly when she tells Porsha: “I need to have a woman in front of me to be able to do that.” As the argument and their voices escalate other diners look visibly annoyed by the noise the screaming housewives are making. In the end both women storm out of the restaurant, agreeing to disagree. Kenya later says to the camera: “Oh my God Phaedra and Pors Kenya has been crazy from day one she came bursting out of the gate ranting like a loony person. If she thinks it’s getting her attention and fame it’s only showing her as. Porsha might be half her age but she’s isn’t close to being half as crazy.

The Real Housewives of Atlanta Recap – The Donkey’s Back End

Posted on January 14, 2013 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

The Real Housewives of Atlanta learn the hard way how “The Donkey Kicks” when he doesn’t have a contract. We recap how the donkey’s nickel and dime one another in our THG +/- review. So can Phaedra and Apollo really make this donkey booty video fly? I’d be more confident if even they could get on the same page. Minus 12 . Phaedra still says it’s for beginners but Apollo shot down that idea once before. It’s been weeks and they still haven’t hammered out many details, between themselves or with Kenya. But Kenya’s the little producer who could and she’s already gotten a distribution contract. Plus 15. Unfortunately no one wants to pay her for it. I’m not Kenya’s biggest fan but if she’s not getting a fee on the front then I can’t blame her for asking for a percentage on the back end. Not so fast. Ms. Phaedra’s not willing to give up that 10%. And Kenya’s right. If Phaedra’s got something else in mind she needs to make a counter offer. Instead everyone is left in limbo. Minus 11. If they are the incredible business women they all claim to be, then why is this deal causing such angst? I love how Cynthia shut this whole thing down before it even started. Phaedra sends out some lame tweet about casting for her fitness video at the Bailey Agency and you can just hear Cynthia say, not so fast girl . Cynthia’s not allowing her agency to get dragged into this without the money being hammered out up front so she cancels the casting call and puts Phaedra in her place. Plus 18. For an attorney, Phaedra doesn’t seem to be communicating the details of this fitness video deal very well to any of her so called partners. Something tells me that’s going to come back to bite her soon. Things are going much better for NeNe who is furnishing her home in the Hollywood HIlls. Plus 20. From exotic dancer to actress on a prime time sitcom, complete with our own trailer. Nothing stops NeNe. But she does need to slow down and let Gregg take the reins, at least at home. Let’s see how the two of them handle the role reversal. Back in Atlanta, Kandi throws Todd a 39th birthday bash complete with helicopter tour of the city and a surprise visit from his Momma. Plus 13. She even does one better when she shuts Kenya down for bringing up this ridiculous donkey booty video nonsense. Why start trouble at Todd’s birthday party? Plus 10 to Kandi. She’s having none of it. One of the few signs we see of Porsha is her adoring husband bringing her breakfast in bed. Minus 14. I’ve had enough of Porsha’s perfect life. This donkey booty video controversy isn’t about to end any time soon. Kenya’s $100,000 budget seems high for a fitness video and minus 9 for bragging about her $1000 shoes. How on earth will she ever survive if she only gets to by the $500 pair? And did Andy say something in a promo about Kenya singing? Minus 30 . The last thing anyone needs is yet another singing Housewife. Episode total = -10! Season total = -142!

The Real Housewives of Atlanta Recap – Love & Trampy Hood Rats

Posted on December 17, 2012 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

The Real Housewives of Atlanta made us wonder who would say, “I Do… But, I Won’t” as the Anguilla adventure continued. We recap all the love, romance, and tramp stamps in our THG +/- review We dive back into Anguilla with Kenya asking Phaedra which of her friends she’d give Apollo as a birthday present. What?!? Minus 18 . Kenya doesn’t find the question the least bit inappropriate but Phaedra’s not laughing. Phaedra comments that Kenya needs to, “put some ice in your panties because it’s just not a good look for you.” Plus 8. I’d give more points if she’d have said that to Kenya’s face. Did anyone else notice how uncomfortable Kenya and Walter looked at dinner when the rest of the couples were joking about how much sex they were having on the trip? Huh? So Kenya’s comfortable flirting with every man who crosses her path but couples talking about working the third shift is a problem. Minus 10 . That’s just weird. Wasn’t she just joking about having a threesome with Phaedra’s husband? Although I really didn’t need to know that Kandi and Todd christened the hot tub. Minus 12. Where is Phaedra and her Lysol when you need it? NeNe calls Kenya out, telling her she doesn’t think she and Walter are the real deal. Plus 5 for being direct. At least she says it to Kenya’s face instead of just behind her back. But the big event is Peter’s surprise vow renewal with Cynthia. When he tells the men about it Gregg offers him a couple of viagra. Minus 13 . So that explains Gregg hanging all over NeNe. He’s making sure he’s ready but I’m pretty sure Peter’s able to man up drug free. The vow renewal ceremony is beautiful. Peter and Cynthia have survived a lot of crap and they deserved this wonderful day. I may not always be Peter’s biggest fan but he did it right this time. Plus 30. And to keep the romance going each couple lights a lantern and sends it off over the waves, which sounds lovely unless you are Kenya or Kandi. Their lanterns crashed and burned instead of sailing off towards the heavens. Minus 11. Is that a bad omen or just pure dumb luck? NeNe damn near body blocked Kandi to get to that bouquet. Plus 7 because it was actually kind of funny. Gregg looked so thrilled you’d think those silly flowers sealed the deal. But everyone is happy for Cynthia and Peter…except Kenya who can’t stop thinking why not me ? She’s already a little unstable when her sit down with Porsha begins. And why is Porsha rehashing their argument? Minus 18 . These two women were silently loathing one another this entire trip. Can’t we leave it at that? Apparently not. Porsha wants it all out on the table. Well, be careful what you wish for. Before you know it Kenya’s calling Porsha a b*tch and Porsha’s telling her to, “take your hood rat ass back to Detroit.” Kenya gets all kinds of upset when Porsha calls her a tramp. Minus 10. Kenya’s not the one with the tramp stamp but honey, you were just rubbing your booty on another woman’s husband the night before so if the tramp stamp fits… But who expected to see Ms. NeNe in the role of mediator and bouncer. Plus 15. She has to physically keep these two women apart while trying to broker some sort of peace. When Kenya finally leaves the party with her flowing dress proclaiming, “I’m Gone With the Wind fabulous” I began to wonder if she was off her meds. And then I laughed out loud when NeNe gave that incredulous look, raised an eyebrow and asked, “B*tch, is it movie night?” Plus 22. And to think Anguilla’s not over yet. More next week. Episode total = -5! Season total = -199!

The Real Housewives of Atlanta Recap – The End of an Era

Posted on December 2, 2012 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

The Real Housewives of Atlanta decide there’s just “No Excuse for Excuses” and one housewife walks out the door. Who’s had enough and who will be headed to Anguilla? We recap it all in our THG +/- review. Kenya and Walter head out on a double date with Phaedra and Apollo and things look pretty cozy. Perhaps a little too cozy for Phaedra’s comfort as Kenya bats her eyes across the table at Apollo. Minus 10 . Was it all just about producing a workout video? Perhaps Kenya’s just the flirty type. Phaedra can’t stop admiring Kenya’s breasts. Minus 8 because it’s a little weird that she mentions them multiple times. Of course the former Miss USA certainly likes to keep them on display. Double dates seem to be going around as NeNe and Gregg head over to Cynthia and Peter’s. Peter shares his big secret with NeNe. He wants to renew his vows with Cynthia on the beach at Anguilla. Plus 20 . It really is a lovely thought considering all of the drama that took place at their first wedding. But with the crew they’ve got joining them on this trip, I’m not sure this wedding will be any less stressful. Cynthia’s still ticked off at Phaedra, until Ms. Parks shows up with a huge bouquet and a sincere apology. Cynthia says she’ll forgive but she won’t forget. Minus 12 . If they’re truly friends I think she needs to let that one go. We all got to take a trip to Porsha’s OB-GYN and what a relief we didn’t miss that. Oye. Minus 15 . Porsha and Kordell are given the green light to start trying to make a baby again next month but all Porsha wants to talk about is how to increase her chances to have twins. Minus 9. Thank goodness her doctor has the sense to remind her that after her miscarriage she should be concentrating on having one happy, healthy baby. Plus 12 . Of course it wouldn’t surprise me if Porsha goes home and stuffs herself full of yams anyway. And on a side note, what is up with those earrings. Small dogs could jump through those hoops! The annual girls trip has suddenly become a couples trip and everyone gathers for brunch to discuss the particulars. Here I was thinking that Kandi inviting Kenya along would fill this meal with drama. Who knew I could be so wrong? Now there’s two sides to this argument and I see both. In Kim’s defense, she is pregnant for the second time in a year and she looks like she’s about to give birth sometime in the near future. Minus 10 . Expecting her to hop on a plane to head to some island to party is just unrealistic. If these ladies were gracious they’d just let her out of it. Goodness knows I wouldn’t want to risk having a baby on some small island. On the other side of the aisle, Kim did give them dates and everyone else seemingly jumped through hoops to accommodate her. Plus 8. So I do understand why they’re ticked off. Still it doesn’t seem worth all of the drama. Kim’s life has definitely changed. She’s got two teenaged daughters, an infant, another on the way and a new husband not to mention she just had to move. That’s a lot for anyone. So when the ladies started to pile on, Kim had had enough. Kim walked out and I don’t believe it was just brunch she was ditching. This may be the last we see of Kim. Minus 25 because surprisingly, I think I’m going to miss her, blonde wigs and all. Episode total = -49! Season total = -133!

The Real Housewives of Atlanta Recap – Miss USA Attitude

Posted on November 19, 2012 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

One of the newest members of The Real Housewives of Atlanta says “Call Me Miss USA.” I can think of many things to call her…and Miss USA isn’t on the list We recap all the silly fussing and feuding in our THG +/- review. But first we check in with NeNe who seems to be the happiest Housewife on the block these days. She’s splitting her time between Atlanta and LA and Gregg wants a piece of the action. He’ll move to LA, if NeNe will give him a key to her place, and her heart. Minus 18 because Gregg really knows how to ramp up the cheesiness. He’s wooing her with bad poetry and interrupting her pedicure so he can rub and kiss her feet. Down boy. Someone please make him stop. Later NeNe heads to NYC doing some publicity for her sitcom The New Normal and Cynthia tags along. Cynthia lived in New York before she had two dimes to rub together so she’s shocked that NeNe has never ridden the subway. Plus 12 for taking NeNe on the grand tour and Cynthia’s right…those six inch spiked heels are not subway friendly. The cutest moment was when a bunch of students from a performing arts school recognized NeNe from her work on Glee . Plus 15 . Ms. Leakes was gracious and encouraging and seemed to enjoyed the encounter as much as the kids. Now if Cynthia could just get her to partake of that hotdog, maybe throw in a pretzel too we can make a real New Yorker out of NeNe yet. Of course Phaedra’s husband Apollo might not be too pleased with the New York street vendor diet. He just got certified as a nutritionist and physical trainer. Plus 8 . Apollo and Phaedra are now working on their donkey bootie workout video for women who need a little help getting a curvaceous bottom. Phaedra describes Apollo’s enthusiasm for the project as “Arnold Schwarteneager on bath salts” which is a little intimidating considering Phaedra’s not looking to actually sweat during the workout. Minus 10 . Who knows what they’ll finally come up with. Once again, Kim is barely on the screen except to make clear that she’s pulling all of the “mother f**king flowers” she had put on the property out before she leaves. Minus 12 . Since I doubt she’ll be doing it herself I’m sure she’ll be paying good money to have it done. And Kandi’s mostly missing in action as well as she packs up her awards to get the last of her things out of the old house as she moves one with the new. Now on to Miss USA. First some background. Kenya shares with Phaedra that her mother is mentally ill. She gave Kenya up and has never acknowledged her. Kenya was raised by her grandmother. It’s definitely a big issue for her and something that can still drive her to tears. But any sympathy that garners gets tossed out the window once we spend some time with Miss USA from 1990-something. OK, I’ll admit that Porsha is a bit of a bubbly airhead who appears to have had everything handed to her and she should have known Kenya was a Miss USA, not Miss America. Minus 10 . But I have to think that she’s not the first to make the mistake. You’d think Kenya would handle it with some grace. Ha! Minus 20 . Instead Kenya’s got her nose so out of joint that she calls Porsha a “heifer” behind her back and leaves early. When Porsha comes outside to make sure everything is alright the insults continue to fly.
