10 Craziest Moments in Real Housewives History

The Real Housewives of Orange County debuted on Bravo on March 21, 2006. Fast forward a decade and the feuds and fights that made the original series so popular have spread to Atlanta… Beverly Hills… New Jersey… and even Potomac. A full 10 years after the first edition in this wildly successful franchise made its premiere, what better way to celebrate than by taking a look back at the 10 wildest/craziest/wackiest moments in Real Housewives history? 1. A Trip to Scary Island On The Real Housewives of New York City Season 3, Kelly ­Bensimon suffered a a breakdown while on vacation at a Caribbean getaway. She went off on jelly beans… satchels of gold… Al Sharpton… and Gwyneth Paltrow, among other topics. It was amazing. 2. Who Gonna Check Me, Boo? On The Real Housewives of Atlanta, Season 2, Shereé Whitfield was planning a Queen of the Night part and delivered the most epic comeback of all-time after a party-planner expressed doubt that all the items Whitfield desired could be found: “Who gonna check me, boo?” 3. Wigged Out Well, wig OFF, to be precise. During a brawl on The Real Housewives of Atlanta Season 2, Whitfield threw down with Kim Zolciack on the street… with NeNe Leakes trying to mediate. Michael Lohan even somehow showed up for it. 4. A Bad Fortune We go way back to The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Season 1 for this one: remember the bizarre ­dinner party when hostess Camille Grammer invited her friend, a medium named Allison DuBois, to join the cast members? She proceeded to say someone there was going to die. 5. No Refills Here The Real Housewives of Orange County Season 4 gave us a look inside the crumbling marriage marriage between Vicki Gunvalson and Donn ­Gunvalson. It was highlighted by Vicki describing her “love tank” as “empty.” 6. Michaele Salahi is Not Smart We try to pretend as if The Real Housewives of D.C. never existed, either. But it’s worth noting the time Andy Cohen asked Michaele Salahi at the reunion whether or not she was ever a Washington Redskins cheerleader… and she kept claiming she didn’t know. View Slideshow

Matt Baier to Amber Portwood: Marry Me NOW So You Can Help Pay My Child Support!

Matt Baier has a lot on his plate these days. The guy is getting married to Amber Portwood in October, but before the big day, he has some minor legal problems to take care of. And by “minor legal problems,” we mean the guy is to deadbeat dads what Charles Manson is to serial killers. Currently,  Baier is being sued for child support by five women who claim he’s the father of their seven children. In addition there’s a sixth woman who claims Baier actually has eight kids , but she has yet to file suit. Baier says it’s all nonsense, and the women are just looking to cash in because they know Amber is worth big bucks. Given that claim, you would think that the 44-year-old would be eager to get into court, expose them as liars, and clear his name. But as Radar Online reported moments ago, he’s actually had the court date pushed back two months, and he may be looking to postpone it even further. Yes, Baier was supposed to go before a judge today, but now he won’t set foot in court until at least May. The weird tactic and the fact that Matt and Amber have been coy about their wedding date recently have many believing that Baier and Portwood are planning to tie the knot before his trial. Smart move on his part, as she would be tied to his massive financial burden, but we’re hoping that with all she’s been through, Amber is capable of seeing through this sort of scheme.

Ariel Winter & Sarah Hyland Debut SHOCKING NEW Hair!

Ariel Winter just debuted a brand new look on Instagram: she’s a redhead! The former brunette shared a photo and a video showing off her new fiery tresses. “I’m now a strawberry!” she wrote in the caption. Although, to be precise, she used a strawberry emoji. It’s shocking what a simple hair change can do – the 18-year-old actress looks nearly unrecognizable (yet still gorgeous) in the new pic. We can’t help but wonder if the new look will be incorporated into the Modern Family storyline, but a bold move like this is not one we’d expect from her character, the smart yet nerdy Alex Dunphy. Winter’s hair transformation comes on the heels of a color update recently made by one of her co-stars.  Sarah Hyland, who plays Winter’s older sister on the sitcom, showed off a new, markedly darker hairstyle just two days ago. Hyland traded in her brond (that’s a hybrid of blond and brunette, FYI), ombre locks for a raven hue. “Hello from the darker side,” she wrote in the caption (channeling her inner Adele, we assume). We don’t know if the color changes were coordinated or just a coincidence, but we have to say they’re both pulling it off marvelously.

Kim Kardashian Binge-Eating Following Nude Selfie?

As you’ve probably heard by now, Kim Kardashian posted a nude selfie yesterday. The image has already racked up 1.3 million likes and created a surprising amount of controversy, as Kim fought back against her haters on social media. Now, that the dust is settling (You didn’t break the Internet this time. Sorry, Kim!) Mrs. Kardashian-West’s famous body is once again taking a backseat to her troubled personal life, and it looks as though the latter may be taking a toll on the former. According to Radar Online, Kim has been struggling with her fluctuating weight ever since giving birth to son Saint West in December. The website claims that much of the problem is the fact that Kim feels “trapped” in her marriage to Kanye West  and has been coping with the stress of her home life by binge eating. “Kim is desperate to lose her baby weight,” says one insider. “The problem is she isn’t doing very well and the weight just isn’t dropping off. “Kim is not being very strict about her diet. She is kind of pigging out because she is really stressed. Her marriage problems are weighing on her and that is making her not eat as healthy as she should.” The source adds that the recent nude photo was taken at her skinniest point post-Saint, and she’s since regained a good amount of weight as a result of Kanye’s public meltdown. View Slideshow: Kim Kardashian Nude Pictures: A Tantalizing Timeline “Every time Kanye goes off the rails it makes Kim go crazy too. She doesn’t know how to deal with him so she freaks out,” says the insider. “Kim frantically works out for two reasons. One – she is trying to get rid of weight because she isn’t eating well. Two – she is hoping that working out will help her get her mind off the outrageous things that Kanye does.” The source added that Kim would consider divorce, but as a mother of two whose marriage is constantly in the spotlight, she “feels immense pressure to stay with Kanye.” “The tension in Kim’s life is not helping her lose weight,” says the insider. “And she is totally worried about her marriage ending but doesn’t realize that is affecting her physical appearance.” View Slideshow: 45 Kute and Kuddly Kimye Photos

Kit Harington Drops Game of Thrones Bombshell, FINALLY Reveals If He’ll Be in Season 6!

The premier of Game of Thrones Season 6 is just a few weeks away, and though a few spoilers have already hit the web (Do not watch any interviews with Ian McShane  if you enjoy surprises!) several big questions remain unanswered. Number one on the list, of course, is the matter of whether or not Jon Snow is really dead . Despite the fact that we saw him suffer numerous stab wounds and bleed out in the snow (an apt end, if ever there was one) in the Season 5 finale, logic dictates that the newly-minted Lord Commander of the Night’s Watch will return to brood another day. After all, the barrier between life and death is quite porous in Westeros, and there might be no character more crucial to the resolution of the show’s main conflicts than Jon. Sure, George R.R. Martin and his TV counterparts, D.B. Weiss and Devid Benioff, have demonstrated their willingness to kill off beloved and seemingly vital characters in the past, but with the possible exceptions of Tyrion and Denerys, no man, woman or dragon in Westeros is as important to the show’s many as-yet unconnected plot threads as Jon Snow. And we won’t even get into the leading Game of Thrones finale theory , to which Snow is central. All of this is just a long of saying that until today, the smart money would be on actor Kit Harington returning to the show that made him famous and ultimately uniting the Seven Kingdoms, which makes Kit’s recent comments to TimeOut London all the more shocking. “Look, I’m not in the show any more. I’m definitely not in the new series,” Harington told the publication point-blank. Asked if he’s filmed any scenes for the upcoming season, Harington replies, “Look, I’m not in the show any more. I’m definitely not in the new series.” Sigh. We like to think you wouldn’t lie to us, Kit…but either you’re full of it, or you know nothing, Jon Snow.

Kim Kardashian: I Am the Puppet Master, Not My Mom!

Kim Kardashian is setting the record straight: SHE is the brains behind her family’s phenomenal (and mind-boggling) success, not her mother. As reported by Daily Mail, the most successful Kardashian sister claims that it is indeed she that calls the shots , even though mom Kris Jenner gets all the credit. “It’s so funny, because I’ll hear stories like, ‘Kris Jenner is the puppet master, having all of her kids do this and that,’ and I’m like, ‘If they only knew,'” Kim said in an interview with  Editorialist  magazine. “I’m the one that will be like, ‘Kylie, do this. Kendall, you should do this.'”  And now we do know, Kim. Because you told us. Let’s just let that settle in for a second. KIM is the smart one. We’ll give you a moment to process that (and by “process that,” we mean “control your laughter”). “I definitely see the shift from magazine to digital, and that’s exactly what I envision,” she said about launching her app. “I did want my own avenue to tell my story, to show my fashion pics, to offer my beauty tips, my secrets. “I was doing so many interviews with so many different magazines, and I would find that it wouldn’t be written right or maybe the product was off or I didn’t feel it was truly representing me.” Kind of ironic she’s giving herself such pats on the back now, since just a couple days ago satirist Saint Hoax posted a video of Kim morphing into Kris . Perhaps a harbinger of what’s to come? In addition to this revelation, Kim shared a sneak peak at photos from her super smart – you guessed it – swimsuit shoot from the magazine on her app and website, kimkardashianwest.com.

LuAnn de Lesseps: Dating Ramona’s Ex, Tom D’Agostino

She’s in love and she wants the whole interweb to know it. LuAnn de Lesseps  is in a serious relationship with Thomas D’Agostino Jr , CEO of Smart Source, LLC and and a New York City real estate investor. Prior to this, D’Agostino dated de Lesseps’ co-star, Ramona Singer as recently as September , per a story on Radar . It didn’t last, as sources claimed that the millionaire businessman had his eyes on the Connecticut-born former model. Over the weekend, de Lesseps, 50, tweeted a photo of herself with D’Agostino in Palm Beach. “First time playing golf with Tom!” she wrote. “#PalmBeach #Breakers #love.” Now, sources are telling People that an engagement is not far off. One witness spotted them looking at rings inside Graff Diamonds. de Lesseps is “completely over the moon,” and a “big announcement is imminent.” The couple reportedly stayed at the Brazilian Court Hotel  during the holidays, and made the rounds at parties. Friends of both de Lesseps and Singer insist that there are no hard feelings, which makes sense given their history with recycling men. If you recall, de Lesseps, Singer and Sonja Morgan all dated or had some sort of relationship with Aviva Drescher’s ex-husband, Harry Dubin.  It’s like Goldilocks for wealthy Manhattanites. The Real Housewives of New York City is currently filming its eighth season. View Slideshow: The 9 Richest Real Housewives in Bravo History
