The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills

[Lizard]

This episode was all kinds of boring. I'm not sure why Marissa is there. Other than spilling red wine on her white dress (why was she drinking red wine while wearing a white dress?!?!) and imparting laundry tips from Barbra Streisand, she didn't have much to say. Kyle is a broken record, Brandi pulls focus far too much, and watching Adrienne and Paul interact is just dull as dishwater, as we all know how THAT story ends. I'm glad Taylor was MIA again this episode. I was on board with Yolanda asking that they stop talking about the same ole crap, but she should have done it earlier in the dinner.

The only thing that got me curious, as it did in the previews last week, was Camille's "accusation" that Lisa and Ken don't own SUR at all. Lisa has never hidden her business partner! Camille said last week on the internet somewhere (tweet, blog, something) that she had some bad information on SUR's ownership. Either she's backpeddling to recover her St. Camille of S2 reputation, or someone fed her bad intel, or both. And for Kyle to say it's "mean" to say Adrienne only owns 2% of The Palms (actually, the Maloof family owns 2% and can buy back up to 20% under the current credit agreement, per industry news) is not mean. Not to be too "inside baseball", and I don't know anything but what I read in the gaming news about The Palms, I can safely say that a heck of a lot of casino companies went under restructuring debt deals over the past several years. That the Maloofs hung on to 2%, can get 18% more back, and still have the management contract is a win. Then again, I doubt Kyle has much business sense.

Camille must be jealous of Lisa or desperate for attention. And she sure is LAZY (or not that bright) to say stuff she has not checked herself. So easy to check. Adrienne probably told Camille that Lisa does not own SUR (all that running in circles and chasing her butt). The Maloof kids might not be the managers that the father was.

Does anyone think it just a tad odd that Brandi always knows these "secrets?" and none of the others do?? Where does she get her info? My guess is TPTB.
I don't buy Brandi's excuse that she just tells the truth and says it like she sees it......
in other words, she has no manners, or respect for other..... nor does she care about the person she's talking about. It's all about the attention on her.
And that's her gig for this season.
She's not that different from Tamra on RHOC.....similar behavior...trashy. If she didn't look the way she does...and I admit the girl has a LOT going for her....she would never run around in those circles......of critical witches.

What does TPTB mean? I think perhaps her "secrets" are something everyone in the group knows but they know better than to say out loud and on camera. It isn't really a secret that the Maloof family only owns 2% of the palms. She was originally friends with Adrienne, so I do wonder how much Adrienne confided in her--though I wonder why as she has no filter and does not think before she says something.

Kyle sure does like to stir the pot though and then pretend like she wasn't trying to cause any trouble. I detest people like that. She isn't an idiot--she knows exactly how to push buttons and get the drama going.

I do wonder where Camille's accusation about SUR came from. Lisa never has hidden her partner, but is there more to the story? Or did Adrienne tell her that? She is one of those who is up Adrienne's butt after all. It was obvious she knew about Brandy's allegations but didn't want to admit it in public.

I find it interesting that Adrienne is claiming she isn't suing Brandy next week. I hope Brandy has the proof ready.

I just read that Paul is filing a legal action against their former chef for blackmail. He supposedly posted photos of Adrienne black and blue and said Paul did it to her. (I recall seeing them, but thought Adrienne made the allegation.)

It's on radar. I can't post it here.

You can post the link here. The only links not allowed are to other message boards. This must be a change because I do remember a time when only serious news links were allowed. In a post of mine, I said the same thing; I cannot post the link. A moderator told me it was fine to post it. It was from a gossip site.

I have had close friends for 30+ years and we have never had a fight! We have disagreed, but never lashed out, exposed confidential information or anything else these woman get into. A little gossip here and there but nothing malicious.

Yolanda is growing on me. She is knowlegable in conflict resolution and negotiating relationships. That said if eveyone took her advice there would be no show!

Brandi knows private things about Adrianne because they were friends before this show. It was Adrienne who brought her to the producers.

Kim has every right to get her nose done without talking to her sister about it. Pretty silly to call her at zero hour in the limo. Kim did not seem all that bothered so I am guessing she already knew. It was just too easy.

Kim, pain meds and staying clean and sober is her business. Her doctor has been informed. Stay out of it, for cryin out loud.

Interesting that Camille really did do and say what Brandi voiced. They cleared it up in the hall. Camille has a clean nose; her part in the reunion drama was not damaging. Stomping out of the dining room upon hearing the truth only stands to lower her credibility with the others.
Why does everyone have to choose sides? Ridiculous.

I sure hope Brandi has a copy of Adrianne's letter!

Had I been the one at the dinner table that Yolanda was shushing.....I would have hit her in her overly-plumped lips. That is just a rude thing to do.

Witch,......you are not talking to your child!!!! She was totally out of order.

[AcookerTV]

She really did set the table for all the other women to know exactly how she'd treat them, and it wasn't pretty! When Yolanda kept telling Kyle not to defend Adrienne because she chose not to be there, I kept thinking it was simply a warning to all the other women to know that anytime they chose not to attend an event Yolanda went to, she WOULD talk about them behind their backs, and expect it to be just fine.

[Uncle David]

I think Yolanda shushed the group because the serving staff had entered the room with the next course.

ITA on the shushing! Her asking everyone to move on because they talk about the same thing over and over at each dinner was sane.


Shushing is rude and condescenging!

UncleDavid, perhaps. She could have said 'oh look, our food is here' giving them the opportunity to choose to continue or change the subject. It was not up to Yolanda to silence them. Since there is a camera, sound crew and producer in the room dictating when the server shouild appear, I doubt it was because of that. JMO

[MsDiva2007]

Yeah Yolanda needs to really watch herself. What a rude twit! You shush me you may not like the result,lol.

[Prism]

Yolanda continues pumping the notion that she's the only adult in the room, but her supercilious attitude is slowly eroding the goodwill of her castmates. I'm suspecting Bravo is mining whatever storyline will humiliate her, bring on-camera humiliation or anger and drama. Bravo's pretty good at that. Maybe they've had her husband followed, and know there are bad things in Yolanda's future or something. There's always a punchline when one of the women seems sane.

[Rockytop Chick]

Camille sure is on the show a lot for someone who left the show.
