This is a change of topic, but with all the stories about her out there and all the clips .... I'm WONDERING ABOUT HER EARS. In her earlier photos, her ears looked normal. Now they stick out like Ross Perot's. Did she used to have them pinned or something? Or hearing aids or earpiece directions? Second, to all those folks who don't like the scaring segments, the actors all been prompted... it's not spontaneous. Actors see who can act the most "scared."

As she pointed out, No Black winner of Big Brother. White "frat boy" types typically band together upfront but when Blacks do it, there's an issue. This season? First 3 HOH? White frat boy types who typically go on to win the game (not always though). And minorities are typically the first ones voted out--like the LAST season. I suspect CBS gave Big Brother a veiled "suggestion" to not nominate Blacks the first couple of nominations. Otherwise, David might have been first out.

If Sullivan had added, with a father IN THE HOME, he would have been correct.

Linda lives near my town. It's interesting that local media has mostly characterized her as a "roofer" (her other job). I didn't even realize she worked for the sheriff's department until I saw the show! If she works for the county jail where she lives, then it's a small, rural jail but they haven't stated where she actually works. I find her intriguing on the show. She IS a bit standoffish or introverted. I was shocked when she got picked just about LAST when teams were first created... she had done very well in the wheelbarrow challenge. In fact, she does consistently well in the challenges but I notice she is often standing off to the side in group gatherings and not talking that much to the others. Of course, maybe that's the editing devils since she isn't in the bottom or a runaway winner.

He also was very honest about his need for therapy, which I imagine is difficult for a young handsome guy like him.

Huge disappointment of an interview with Mary Trump. Incredibly disjointed; I couldn't figure out what was going on. Mary looks terrified and her shirt is so tight and unflattering, it looks like she got it at a Goodwill sales counter. Whoever is her stylist, should be fired. C'mon, Mary. There is no logical sequence to Rachel's questions. It's like Rachel picks out an anecdote on Page 163 and asks Mary about it and then, asks Mary Trump about her childhood; then asks her about living in Jamaica; then asks her about COVID. The book sounds very good, but not based on this interview!

Ironically, in 1984 when USAG coaches protested the inclusion of the Karolyi's, the head coach was DON PETERS, who himself has been charged with sex abuse!

I never felt the reverse was true. After all, she had her twin sister and the other books about her only mention Carole in passing because she was the one who got the call from the Coast Guard.

He was the first male gymnast whose gymnastics excited me. I remember that he was never close to the other US guys (Bart, Mitch, Tim) but no one ever denied his accomplishments. It was devastating to me when we boycotted the Moscow Olympics.

I doubt it as she married a lawyer and lives in Colordao. I'd bet it's BRANDI GLANVILLE.

Or she might have saved an egg...

Why not? I'm not sure what it means since I'm boycotting twitter... He needs a gun for protection from looters?

Jay's own show is a CAR show, so that's why Bill hasn't been on it. BTW, Jay is Bill's neighbor.

Based on what I hear from a family member in Shanghai, most of the seamstresses today at the couture houses in Europe are Chinese. They are incredibly good and they work cheap. THAT'S why we don't see them--everybody thinks they are little old French ladies, but they're not. (That's why MILAN was hit so hard with the virus. Seamstresses brought it back from China after the holidays.) Well, he picked the wrong field then. Criticism is part of the game. The only worse profession he could have chosen is football quarterback.

OH YES! I genuinely enjoy the show and it has never been more relevant than this week with the tragic death of that young black man in Minneapolis. I keep remembering that sad speech that the African-American dad (forgot his name! The TV anchorwoman's husband, I think) gave his son who had just gotten his drivers license. He warned him about the police and said, "You're a young black man driving a BMW in a white neighborhood." (IIRC) It was one of the most honest moments I've seen on a Bravo reality show and I think show deserves to be renewed for that alone as a representation of its value.

I think Kaiseki is beautiful in that you consider every aspect of food--presentation, connection to nature, taste, subtlety. It's often compared to traditional Japanese theater. The beauty of it is that Japanese actually enjoy their food--unlike so many Americans who just want to shovel in bags of greasy food they get by hollering through a microphone at the drive-thru.

Do you remember that Oprah episode when Oprah and Gayle went camping at a national park? Oprah said she had never been camping before and had no desire to, but she had gotten a letter from a black national park ranger who asked Oprah to promote camping in America's national parks because she never saw black campers and thought there were a lot of bad information out there. (Yes, there are real bathrooms there.) These moms probably all sent their kids to camp, so were very familiar with the concept.

Andy, like Anderson Cooper, does not want to miss ONE MOMENT of TV time! He not only does WWHL, but he has a DAILY radio show on Sirius and is often the back-up host for such shows as Today with Hoda and Jenna and Kelly and Ryan. In addition, he is involved in production of various Bravo shows (such as hosting the reunions). Even Tamra Judge told him to slow down and spend time with his kid. He nodded, but acted like he didn't care. I think Ben is an accessory for his busy, busy life. Remember, Ben has no mother and Andy took AN ENTIRE WEEK of family live away from the cameras. (Of course, during that time "off," he posed for the cover story of PEOPLE magazine.)

Sorta. It was a two-part movie with Meredith Baxter playing Betty. She was FLAWLESS in that role. Stephen Collins, who played Dan, also was very good--a tall handsome confident debonair lawyer. Christian Slater and Amanda Peet are woefully miscast. She's too thin and manic and Slater looks like a tiny weasely lawyer who nobody would kill to keep!

Howard Stern took the opposite route: he said people didn't give his girlfriend, Beth, the proper respect they would a legal wife because far too many people have seen celebrities with multiple girlfriends. To me, to not legally marry just says to me, He/She is just not that into you. And all these women like Porsha WANT to have a legal relationship which is why they are all having babies with their FIANCES. We all know they will be split up before the baby is a year old ... As for gay couples, a company in my city offered gay couples spousal benefits when it came to health insurance. The day gay marriage was legalized, the letters went out to the couples that their benefits would end because they now had the legal options. In my family, my brother has six children with 2 wives, so the kids are legally half-siblings. They actually are very close and I have never heard them refer to each other as HALVES. Kroy legally adopted Kim's daughters so he actually IS their father. This issue became a TV controversy when Al Trautwig kept referring to gymnast Simone Biles' parents as her GRANDPARENTS because her grandparents legally adopted her. He got booted off the gymnastics commentary. (Terry Gannon now does it)

I never read that he was divorced... Wikipedia said he married Valerie Combs in 2011. I believe she came to the family episode, right?

C'mon, producers! Surely you knew she'd wash out... typical misogyny. Second, if I knew I was going to be on this show, I sure as hell would learn how to sew. Even Anya on Project Runway learned to sew well enough to win. I remember Mychal Knight visiting Sheree of Real Housewives of Atlanta ("She by Sheree!) and telling her that she needed to know construction and materials and sewing techniques to tell her seamstress exactly what to do. (The outfits she created were so awful, Sheree had a fashion show with no fashions.) Hey, remember Season 4 of Project Runway when they had that couture challenge? Christian Siriano and Chris March hit it out of the park with that 39-yards-of-fabric gown and their accessible outfit and even Jillian Lewis and Victorya made that gorgeous COAT in just two days.

Just wait until Brynn's a teenager... Every teenage girl I know from a joint custody situation knows the way to get back at mom during those teen drama moments is to say, "I want to live with Dad."

I was hoping to see an interaction between the seamstresses and the designers, but I am not surprised they were not shown. It's couture's dirty little secret that nowadays the seamstresses for all these great French and Italian houses are actually Chinese immigrants working for far cheaper wages than French and Italians. (A family member is Chinese and owns a business in Shanghai). My family believes COVID, for example, was brought back to Italy by the seamstresses even though Italy tried to spin the story that it was tourists... I'm also disappointed that we didn't see the BEST design--that white dress with the red cummerbund whose skirt was being held up with the big bridal gown-style arm loop. That looked amazing for the 5 seconds we saw it.

If you take hormone replacement, you can get your period until you're dead. Lighter and only three or four times a year, but a period nonetheless. Ditto for Bethenny on RHoNY.
