The ‘Dwindling Uterus and Chris Bassett, still the topic.
Chris getting lumped in with the dwindling uterus? Not sure how he feels about that.
Candiace demands to know what exactly what did he to Gizzy to cause so much fucking trauma.
GO.
“He maaaaade me feel UNCOMFORTTTTT—–ABLLLLLE…”
She has to draaaaaaaaagggggggg out the syllablessssssssssss, in order to make herself sound convincingggggggggggg. We’re not.
“I feel like this is semantics.”
Andy: “Yes it kind of is.”
It has turned into a discussion of ‘semantics’ (explaining) since she has over-exaggerated a minor occurrence, and is being asked, at the reunion, which is why we’re here, to explain her accusations, so therefore, analyzing this claim has become necessary.
Sorry girl ya should’ve been more prepared. Get the disgusted look off of your face. You’re not pretty with the constipated face.
Gizelle accuses Candiace of “making this bigger.” Is she fucking kidding? Who is the one that ‘made it bigger?’ She was feeling sexual tension, Chris was not, she made it this big trauma. Wonder why she was feeling sexual tension? Who wants who here??
Candiace keeps going back to her point of “having six months to bring this up.”
And I do think she needs to drop that. She knows these bitches get messy. It’s the whole purpose of the show. Of courses she ‘waited’ until filming season to bring it up on camera.
Candiace is like, dumbing herself down to Gizelle’s level, by acting shocked by that.
I kind of feel like I should take my own advice here, because I usually don’t react correctly to dumb shit being presented to me, but what really would have called Gizelle’s bluff, and shot down her stupid ‘story line’ before it even got off the ground, was to act absolutely unbothered by it.
Then when Candiace brought it up to Chris, just kind of laughed it off, and made her feel like an idiot.
Chris should have said: “you WISH I would hit on you!” Then accused her of being into him, and projecting.
Gizelle did kind of make Chris out to be a predator. No, he didn’t hit on her that day, but she acted like he just wanted a flimsy excuse to be alone with her. I really do think he just wanted someone to vent to, that was not Candiace, which doesn’t really imply that he’s into her that way.
As I said last week, I’m sure he finds her attractive, but I find her attractive, it doesn’t mean I want to bone her. I know guys think differently.
Mia tries to butt in and corraborate her story and validate her feelings. Which is normal of course, for the wives to choose sides, depending on whom they like better in that moment. Mia is going to side with Gizelle, because Candice is close to Wendy, and she hates Wendy. If the sitch were in complete reverse (assuming Gizelle had a BF at the time) she would still side with Gizelle. Again, just a Housewife thing we gotta roll with. The Real Hypocrites of Wherever.
Okay, so the moment we’ve all been waiting for, or maybe not all, but me, and a few others, this utterly moronic tale of Chris hitting on Ashley’s quite unattractive friend. Maybe she was having Gizelle-like syndrome too, and really really wanted Chris to hit on her?
In addition to my scenario of Candiace and Chris just ignoring and blowing off Gizelle’s false claims, instead of getting all worked up about it, if I were Chris I would totally also be making comments like, “DAMNNNNNN, I’m such a stud. These bitches are wanting on me! All fantasizing that I’m checking ‘em out and hitting on me I get it, I’m handsome!”
Candiace should be like, “oh yeah, all these ho’s want my man cuz they ain’t got one.”
(If Debs is married, I have a feeling she’s not going to be for much longer after this fucking embarrassing debacle)
Why didn’t I think of this before? I’m feeling off my game. This day job is draining the life out of me!
All right, I got on a rant. That’s so not like me.
We flash to the event scene of Chris making very polite, very small, small talk with Debs, that SHE initiated, and Chris was frankly acting like he wanted her to take a fucking hike.
Doesn’t Ashley have any hot friends she coulda put up to this task?? This possibly could’ve worked with a chick that doesn’t look like a monster.
Yes, I believe Ashley put her up to this shit. This chick didn’t cook this up on her own.
“My husband’s name is Chris.” Oh please. Who cares. One of the most common American fucking first names for the Gen X-plus generation ( or younger if named after someone) is Christopher or Christine. And she knew damned well who he was!
Andy addresses Ashley about this, and she says she was surprised that she footage didn’t align with Oscar’s accusations.
Deb’s even going so far as to claim they’re not showing the footage of the entire convo. Okay. Seriously. There would be no reason for Bravo to be showing any kind of favoritism with Chris and Candiace, to deliberately omit the footage. I think this reunion so far has been pretty brutal on Ashley and Gizelle.
They’re both coming off as looking like a fucking dunce. Honestly. Andy is perplexed too by this, and his expression looks like he’s calling complete bullshit, as he segues into Deb’s claim that Eddie flirted with her also, because he POLITELY smiled at her. Has she ever been ACTUALLY flirted with?? Like is this bitch not even used to dudes being simply cordial and polite to her?? Also, they are fully aware that they have mic’s on, and are surrounded by cameras. So they’re not gonna be like, “shut the fuck up, you’re ugly!”
And they’re also not going to be dumb enough to to come onto her. Even though dudes do some pretty stupid shit, don’t get me wrong. But again, for this little plan to even be believable to tempt the dumb asses, don’t mean to focus on looks here, but the bitch needed to be HOT !! This isn’t hard.
Wendy answers what I had pointed out, that it’s kind of outrageous that these bitches are getting uncomfortable over dudes just showing every day normal manners and respect.
She should be saying “guess the bitch wants my Idris Elba look-alike husband. Sorry can’t have him.” Wendy also makes an interesting and worthwhile point, that after these fairy tales these women have been telling about Chris, now the husbands are going to be afraid to even talk to the other women. Ashley looks over at her like, “hmmmm you have a point.” But would never admit that.
And it just so happens that the two dudes that were pegged here, or attempted to be, were husbands of two ladies that Ashley and/or Gizelle don’t care for!!
This is really some bullshit, even for Housewives. I just don’t like that some of these ladies assume the viewers are stupid. Yes, it’s mindless entertainment, I admit to that, but that does not mean we do not have fucking minds. We’re just choosing to not use them for an hour a night.
This is why the shows are aired at 8 or 9pm, after a day of working, or at least being responsible and productive, if you’re not employed, when you can treat yourself to an hour or two of doing something that you don’t need your brain for. Sit back, have a cocktail, watch these ladies make fools out of themselves.
I know Bravo plays reruns non-stop all day, but I’ve never been one to sit and binge-watch Housewives/Bravo all day long. I think if I did that, I would be inclined to hang myself.
This ‘IG live’ thing that Candiace had posted in a moment, I’m guessing, of sheer frustration over the Chris accusations, Andy asks if her to break down her “no one’s real, they’re fake, they’re tying to peddle their businesses…”
Okay so I hate to reuse the word ‘semantics’ but she didn’t mean literally ‘no one’ in the group or they’re ALL fake. She was clearly pinpointing the ones, without saying names that she was pissed off at.
She was not literally referring to the entire group. Such as saying “nobody wears that anymore.” Chances are SOMEBODY is wearing it.
So I guess long story short, she said they’re all just ‘peddling their businesses’ and that got some of them all cranked up (which they do use the shows for this, let’s be ‘real’ since this is supposedly 4reality) Furthermore, to even be in the position to have businesses due to their fame from the show. Who the hell would buy Karen’s stupid $60 crap candles if she wasn’t a ‘Housewife.’ No one. No one would buy it, and by that I literally DO mean NO ONE.
Anyway, my point was now, all of them that have these side businesses, supposedly were offended by that comment.
To be honest, she probably was throwing some low key shade at Wendy and Karen, for their stupid basic candle enterprise. Not so much Robyn and her hats.
Robyn points out that if she were pissed at Ashley and Gizelle, neither of them have ‘businesses’ so she must have been shading her.
Anyway I’m over all of this pettiness. I’m five minutes into it, and am at the end of a third page already.
Candiace is pissed at Robyn since they’re supposedly besties, that she played the Insta post at the fighting table. Robyn points out – “well ya posted it for them to see and hear.” True.
Candiace thinks Robyn should have addressed her directly with any questions and concerns. I like Candiace this season, but sometimes she does forget she is filming ‘Real Housewives.’
Like I think I said before, just like Housewives is a very loosely used term, so is the ‘Real’ part.
In real life, as in not being mic’d and surrounded by cameras, if you make a cryptic post, your friend would have called you up and ask “what the hell? were you referring to me??”
But, on Real Housewives, the recording gets played during a gathering, and they all sit and bitch about it.
Robyn quickly points this out to her, she must have heard me, and friendly reminds her, they are supposed to hash this shit out on camera, while making it as dramatic as possible. That’s kind of why they’re making the big bucks.
Robyn calling her and saying, “hey girl you didn’t mean me, right?” would so not have the same effect as playing the recording.
If Candiace cannot deal with it, she needs to excuse herself from The Housewives. I kind of think she should quit while she’s ahead anyway, and pursue her music career. She cannot keep up with how conniving Ashley and Gizelle are, and they clearly have it in for her.
It wouldn’t have anything to do with her being five feet tall, adorable, 105 pounds, comes from money, educated, has her shit together, great singer, didn’t have to endure an 8 year marriage to a cheating skeevy old gay dude in order to have a nice living arrangement… I’m sure none of that has ANYTHING to do with why these two ho’s have it in for her. NOTHING.
Okay so this is dumbness where Wendy felt all betrayed or ‘in her feelings’ or whatever that she looks up to Robyn ‘the most’ and she’s the most loyal. Oh my God, really ladies?? Are we 12?? This is ridiculous.
Candiace is not only the cutest, but also coming off as the smartest. Sorry Dr. Wendy.
I need to get on with this. Candiace acknowledges that she should not have referred to Robyn as most loyal, I think, sort of. She also says it’s fucking idiotic to act like she can’t have more than one friend.
Robyn points out this is NOT a fucking competition! Amen!! Can we pahhhlease move on???
I feel like I’m in 7th grade right now, or dealing with my daughter when she was in 7th grade, with girls being jealous of who was better friends with who.
Lunch break. And the boys are IN THE HOUSE !! I don’t think we see them until next week though. Chris gets a dig in about not hugging the women. Then he hugs Wendy. I guess she doesn’t count.
Reasonably Shady is being discussed. Robyn admits she “never even listened to a Podcast” Wendy tries to throw in a little shade, “that’s — not wise.” OhhhKAY Dr. Wendy, take a seat. It’s a fucking podcast. It’s literally sitting on your couch, and talking. It’s not a thesis. No research is needed.
Karen gets accused of stealing Wendy’s candle idea (candles– how original!) and also stealing Gizelle and Robyn’s live show idea.
My opinion: I believe her, she planned on launching candles. Not original at all, and I can buy it. (not literally, not buyin her candle) The live show idea? Yeah not so much. She did steal that idea. I think this is the first we’ve even heard from her at the reunion, and we’re 15 minutes into Part 2. Yes she’s first seat.
And I hate Karen’s Reunion look. Trying way too hard. The hair, the dress, way too much makeup for her age. Less is more as you age. She looks like a drag queen in her 70’s. (in the way of too much makeup because they usually were an over abundance of makeup, don’t attack me chill out, I love drag queens)
Now we delve further into Karen’s live show. And yes, not to brag, but I did say that I think she ponied off of Luann’s Cabaret. It was not close to it, as far as entertainment factor, it was kind of like a poor man’s Luann’s Cabaret, I hate to tell her. Or actually no, I would love to tell her. Let’s be real. When people say “hate to tell ya” they actually mean “love to tell ya.” I think it was a combo of Luann’s Cabaret and Robyn and Gizelle’s live show, actually. Did it work? No, it did not.
It worked for Deborah Dumb Ass getting some free fries and cosmos and looking like the village idiot. Was it entertaining and anything close to an actual cabaret? No.
She denies even getting any inspo whatsoever from Luann. Now, she claims it was Carol Burnett. Oh please.
I’m like so over Karen. Earlier she said Wendy Williams inspired her. Andy shades her, and she’s trying to be all cool, but knows the writing is on the wall. Robyn and Gizelle put the ‘live show’ thing in her head, and she copied the concept from Luann. There, done. Why can’t she just say that? Wouldn’t you have so much respect for her if she just owned it?
Gizelle’s surgery. It was 8.5 hours supposed to be 3.5 hours, kids were freaking. Everyone was freaking. She tries to not talk about. Andy makes her finish. She’s alive. Sounds like a lot of over dramatization to me. I’ve known several women that have had hysterectomies, and never have I heard it sound this dramatic. So I guess they were getting updates, then no updates. Don’t they watch medical shows? Like when you croak, they inform the family immediately.
I’ve never seen a group of women that are so excited to have health issues.
Andy asks why she never wants to talk about her life. She has flimsy reasons that make no sense.
We don’t spend a lot of time on it. I’m not sure I have high hopes for her and Jason. But we’ll see.
I liked her answer though about Jason, he asks ME if he can come to town. You’re damned right, don’t be chasing after no damned man at your age !! Even if it is Jason from Winter House.
Wendy’s up. I kind of thought Eddie recording Wendy immediately post surgery was weird too. Can these folks everrrrr take a fucking break? Like ever??
And we knew the restaurant partnership was not happening. And can you imagine being ‘in business’ with Wendy? She would be ten times worse than Bethenney Frankel on RHONY. Everything would have to be her way or tantrums would ensue.
So speaking of Peter, Mia is asked to explain her relationship with Peter, and she clarifies that.
The water throw. Why I can’t side with Mia, is that she is the one that instigated the brawl, by repeating stupid Peter’s stupid ass comment that he hasn’t heard back from Wendy on this bogus restaurant deal, and now he’s got ‘beef’ with her.
Wendy is Wendy, she’s not new to the group. Mia should have absolutely expected her to vehemently dispute the validity of the “you should’ve checking in with Peter claim” and also be offended that Mia would be sticking her nose in her fucking business.
I think to Mia, it sounded like a good idea in the moment, but she clearly didn’t think it through. She didn’t think through how it was going to sound to four degrees Wendy, to insinuate that she should have “informed Peter” that she was going to be in Florida. As if he owns Wendy now?
Mia didn’t like what Wendy had to say to make let her know she was quite out of line, to spew out such fucking nonsense, and couldn’t handle it, and threw her glass of water on her.
Mia tries to blame her ‘delivery’ for it coming off as accusatory, or as if she was looking for a fight. Well isn’t this different? A Housewife not blaming ‘editing.’ Now it’s delivery. That’s bullshit too. Delivery had nothing to do with it. Or editing.
I don’t get why Mia was so apologetic on social media after the episode aired, and in Mexico, and now she’s back to acting like she did nothing wrong.
Now Mia I think, is accusing Wendy of offering ‘the cookie’ to Peter ? Apparently there was a late night dining interlude that looked kind of romanticish. Mia claims to have “saw the (restaurant) cameras.”
Robyn explains the ‘antagonistic’ remark directed to Wendy (when Mia started the argument and was the one to throw purses and drinks around) as Robyn was trying to get Wendy to just drop it for the time being, if she didn’t want to pursue an actual fight. Because when you’re extremely angry you do shit you wouldn’t normally do. Believe me, I know. I threw some beers around a few years ago. Throwing shit is a thing with women. Guys throw punches, girls throw whatever is handy.
I think Wendy did need to shut up, and pick it up later when she was calm. She proved her point. Mia felt foolish, looked foolish, walked away because she looked foolish. Even did the whole calling the husband and pretended she was going home thing.
Wendy didn’t need to keep up the barrage of insults. That’s what Robyn was trying to get through to her. I think it makes her look like she did have Wendy’s best interest in mind, even though she doesn’t really like her, which is kind of admirable for a Housewife. Would we rather have had her sitting there and Teresa Guidice-style egging her on?? No, she told her to step back.
90% of viewers saw that this was Mia’s doing, and were appalled by her behavior. Hence the Twitter apology three months ago. Now, since everyone has moved on to talking about other fights and whatnot, she’s no longer sorry? I guess? Is that how that works?? When it’s all the buzz, you’re sorry. When it gets forgotten about, you’re not sorry. It’s the Housewife way.
Robyn wonders why Karen didn’t intervene when she is friends with both of them. Who cares.
I’m tired of Monique and Candiace’s fight from four fucking years ago, being discussed and the comparisons, and the pointing out the hypocrisy, and who started it and who this and that, whatever, We know! It’s time to move on. Everyone is alive. No one was even hurt. I think Monique had jealousy issues with Candaice as well. Maybe not looks, but the Candaice had it easy coming from wealth, and she didn’t.
It’s actually refreshing when Gizelle points to Wendy, and says her difference of opinion in the two scenarios is that “I don’t like her!” It was bitchy, but refreshing.
Colorism is the topic. Andy offered to opt out of the discussion, but the ladies didn’t think it was necessary. Thank God for that. I mean, really?? So now some of the added strife in this group is due to some of the ladies have a white parent and are lighter skinned. Do you know that other countries are wondering why Americans are now so obsessed with race? I know why, and I hope you all know why. We need to stop this obsession. We sound like idiots.
It’s to the point, even that we’re breaking down issues between lighter skinned and darker skinned ladies.
Candiace thinks her tantrums and fits are viewed and received differently than Robyn’s. I think Candiace is treated differently because everyone is jealous of her, and I hate to keep going back to that, but that really is a big issue wih a lot of women, that can’t handle being envious. I’ve dealt with it all my life, and to this day, I still deal with it. Jesus Christ if I came from a wealthy family, I probably would’ve been shot at some point. I’m not joking.
What’s Andy’s obsession with Michelle Obama? He never says much about our Democrat female black VP for some reason, but is obsessed with a former first lady from eight years ago. Wonder why.
Mia seems uneasy with the arrival of her ex best friend.
Jacqueline, however, seems cool and confident, and ready to spill the tea, the coffee, the hot chocolate, all of it.
Andy questions Jacqueline on how she perceived the goings-on with Mia during filming. Jacqueline explains that she felt dragged underneath her, to elevate herself to make sure she looked like some sort of ‘peasant.’ By the way Jacqueline isn’t exactly a low-life. You’ll have to look her up. She’s accomplished.
Not to make it about me, but this sounds a lot like what my sister and her fat ugly daughter did to me. Make me out to be the ‘peasant’ so they felt better about themselves, because at that time I had lost my job, due to the scamdemic. However I was receiving unemployment of course, had savings, live in a nice house, drive a newish car. I was not starving. Bills were getting paid. It was just such a reach, to make me appear destitute because she was paying for this stupid $80 hotel for one night, and I wasn’t in the best place at that moment.
I’ve paid for hotels, and picked up the check numerous times with her, and bought her nice gifts for babies, threw her a baby shower, gifts while on vacation, sent her money for her birthday every year… None of that was taken into account, because it was more fun to paint me as a loser to her fucking ugly daughter, in order to elevate herself. Exactly how Jacqueline explained it. I may use that, IF she ever speaks to me again.
Of course Mia denies this, because you know that’s not something anyone, even when they know it IS exactly what they were doing, will admit to, because you know it sounds so fucking scum bag doing that to a freind or family member. Can you just picture, “why, yes Andy, I was feeling my oats last season, and feeling like I was better, and had a nicer house, more money, better position than Jacqueline, so I decided to tear her down and embarrass her.”
I’m sure it had a lot to do with how she felt that the tables were turned since when they were kid, when she was taken in by Jacqueline’s mom as a foster child, essentially.
Mia starts rambling, and the coherency is just nil. Like what the fuck did she say? Sounds similar to her explanation about losing her job.
Jacqueline points out that her sister was her nanny, and since Mia’s trailer trash family gave her NO support, she asked her if she would like her sister to nanny for her. Side note, I think it’s weird to have your sister as your nanny, which is your employee.
Andy wonders what I pointed out above. “Are you trying make up for feelings of inadequacy when you were younger and her mom took you in?”
“No” she assures, then laughs nervously. It’s easy to see here who feels stupid, and who feels hurt. Again she’s not going to admit this.
In this scenario, my sister would be Mia, and I would be Jacqueline. I would have facts and valid questions, and she would be offering gibberish that makes no sense. Which is why she won’t one-on-one speak to me. Which is also why Mia hasn’t spoken to her in months. Jacqueline says some of her family has watched it all play out and are DISGUSTED with Mia. As they should be.
So in lieu of offering an actual apology, Mia instead offers more word vomit. A message gets displayed of a group text to the ladies about Jacqueline using food stamps, and getting unemployment, losing her job, and her house is in foreclosure. Wow so pathetic Mia. Project much??
Well doesn’t this all sound familiar, Mia? Oh except, Mia, you don’t own a home, so your ass just got booted out of your rental. This sounds like karma came a knockin on her 10g/month rental house door, and said, get the fuck out you broke-ass bitch.
And the receipts come out!!
Part 3 is 1.5 hours! I’ll need a good cocktail for that one!
