SheTalksShit

I'm not surprised that Lala's deleted her Twitter and doesn't allow comments on her IG, given her delusional arrogant behavior this season. Self-awareness has never been her strong suit, but this season, it's gone completely out the window! I don't think it has that much to do with her Dad, like yes, I'm sure she's sad he died, but I think she's lashing out the way she is because she's become overly emboldened by her newfound close friendships/acceptance with Katie, Kristen and Stassi and the fact that her relationship with Randall is now officially public and she's engaged to him. I don't believe for a minute she'd be acting like this if it weren't for that and that is so pathetic, to me. James is definitely a very flawed person, especially when it comes to controlling his emotions and the fact that he keeps losing his shit over and over and over doesn't help his cause, but at least he's entertaining and doesn't come across as delusional. And he doesn't talk shit to people unless they talk shit to him, first. If you're cool to him, he'll be cool to you. I like Raquel.

I want to like Danielle, I've always had a soft spot for her because I feel like she got a pretty unfair shake her first 2 seasons. But that necklace thing was cringe-worthy.

I liked Caroline, too, but I don't think she and Margaret are the same. To me, Margaret is in insecure bully - she's like the ugly girl that always kisses up to the pretty, popular girls, who she secretly wishes she could be, while berating the less popular girls because they don't do anything for her status. Caroline, to me, is not a bully, she just calls it as she sees it. Caroline also didn't have a 4 year affair with another man before FINALLY deciding to tell her husband, only to divorce him and marry the man she had an affair with.

The twins were kinda boring, to me. Like I don't remember much of anything about them. I wouldn't mind Amber coming back, tho.

I think you’re right, Lisa is DONE with Kyle. What makes you think Kyle’s misreading that, tho? I think she senses that, that’s why she’s so vigorously defending Teddi, she’s sensing there’s no hope. I think Kyle would be LVP’s friend in a heartbeat if LVP wanted to, though.

Oh now she remembers. She didn’t recognize the name? She must not have bc had she known, she had to know fans would know who Faith is. I think LVP is feeling very defensive right now and not thinking before she responds.

No, this is definitely not sarcasm lol. Look at what she’s responding to. I wonder why LVP would even respond to that, it gives it a platform. You are obviously a big LVP fan, I get it. I like her. But she fucked up here.

Oooh LVP fucked up. She knows exactly who Faith is, how can she not? I’m wondering why she’d say that, surely she knows fans remember Faith from last season of Vanderpump Rules.

Oh LVP is so much more clever and smooth than Bethenny. Much calmer, much less high strung, much cooler, much more strategic, much less impulsive, much more mentally stable. The 2 don’t even compare, IMO. I cant stand Bethenny. LVP, despite her flaws, is someone I respect and enjoy watching. Bethenny, ugh, no.

With all that has gone down, it would be a very bad move, strategically, to fire John Blizzard. Even tho I don’t believe LVP was the main one behind all this, JB could easily turn on her if fired for this and LVP knows it. It’s a much better strategy to simply get JB to appear on camera and back up her side of things...and LVP is nothing if not strategic.

As much as she likes to play the cool-don’t-give-fuck persona, Erika is very uptight. And I thought it was unwarranted, personally, because everybody’s child could get killed. Her son could kill somebody’s child! I mean I just don’t get it. And I think she was really just mad bc Eileen wasn’t taking her side anymore, she’s very sensitive like that. You say one little thing slightly against her and she goes off. That’s why LVP doesn’t mess with her, IMO, even tho Erika said some shady shit about her her first season.

Does anyone else recall when Erika went crazy on Eileen because Eileen said, offhandedly, “It’s not like she killed your child!” Then she turned it into, “Well, my son is a police officer, he really could get killed!” Umm ya everybody’s child could get killed, not just your son. That irritated me. And it was obvious that’s not really what she was upset about, what she was really upset about was that Eileen was no longer taking her side.

Rinna really has it out for LVP, for some reason. I'm not sure why, maybe because she's been in the industry much longer than LVP, yet LVP still remains queen on the show? Maybe because of the whole Munchausen's thing from a few seasons ago? Or maybe a combination of both, IDK, all I know is that it's obvious Rinna has it out for her.

I have to admit, Teddi has a point here: I think maybe she was exhausted by Sessa's relentless talking about it and wanting Dorit held accountable, so she said, "Fine, tell whoever, I don't care if you tell Donald Trump, FFS!" But then later changed her mind when she realized her husband, Ken, was adamantly against putting it out there because he and Dorit's husband, PK, are close friends. It seems obvious, at this point, that John Sessa was the one who really wanted this story out there, he's the one who hand-reared the puppy, so he's the one who had the most emotional investment in the puppy and what happened. I think everyone else just kinda went along with it because he was relentless about holding Dorit accountable.

After all these years, Kyle still has yet to realize that you can't have it both ways. You can't walk into your friend's house, accuse her of lying and caring more about image than friendship, then expect to stay BFF. lol. It just doesn't work that way. I had to learn that the hard way, too, but best believe, I learned it. If you think that about your friend and you wanna stay friends, you can't say that shit. Only tell them what you think if you don't care about the friendship anymore. Kyle should know this by now because this same conflict keeps happening with her and LVP over and over again! LVP is tired of being questioned, tired of not being believed. I don't blame her! If I swore on my life something with me went down a certain way and my friend accused me of lying, especially in my own house, I'd be like, "fuck off," too.

Yeah, they say that all the time. I honestly just assume they say that as part of their job to promote the show at this point, tbh. LOL. I don't expect any smoking gun to be revealed that changes everything.

I think you're right, Kyle is viewing this opportunistically. I don't think it's because she's dumb, though. I think it's because she knows Lisa is done w/her, so now she's fully jumping on the anti-Lisa bandwagon. Before that, I think she felt caught in the middle because she was close w/Lisa, but she'd also recently gotten very close w/Teddi. What stands out most to me in her blog is this: umm hello, Lisa and John Sessa are 2 different people and contrary to what these ladies keep trying to say, he is NOT her employee, he is her partner in this business. He had a name for himself before this, working on the Yulin documentary and a bunch of other dog-rescue related work and, along with Lisa, he handles the executive decisions in Vanderpump Dogs. He's not just some lowly 25 year old employee that has to follow Lisa's every command. Lisa needs him for the work he does every bit as he needs her. They are business partners. Again, John Sessa and LVP are 2 different people! JOHN SESSA felt like a parent to the dog he hand-reared for 8 weeks before giving her to Dorit, so he was understandably pissed when the dog ended up at a shelter because Dorit gave him away to an owner who ended up dropping the dog off there. That is JOHN SESSA, not LVP. That doesn't contradict anything. She thought Teddi might use it against her, but that doesn't mean she's the one that told Teddi about it. The kid who told Teddi about it says the text messages are misleading, that when you see the screenshot where Teddi asked if LVP told him to tell her, he wrote YES but he says he was responding to the previous text she wrote that isn't included in the screenshot. I believe him, because his next text was "IDK" right under the "YES" text, which he says was his response to her asking if LVP told him to tell her.

Yup. I really don’t think LVP was in on this, tho. Like I don’t think she wanted it out there, bc Ken didn’t, as he and PK are close friends. So LVP would prefer to honor her husband’s wishes in the name of his friendship w/PK. I really think this was just a case of John Sessa being pissed off and doing what he wanted to do and Lisa agreed with him, but would have preferred he kept quiet about it because that’s what her husband wanted out of loyalty to PK. LVP has her flaws, for sure, but I think they’ve got her wrong here. I’m most surprised that Kyle, of all ppl, read her so wrong here. Say what you will about Kyle, but she’s usually pretty perceptive about people’s intentions and capabilities and she’s not usually the type to jump to conclusions, she doesn’t usually view things in black and white. But reading her latest blog, she has LVP all wrong this time. She seems to have forgotten that John Sessa and LVP are 2 different people.

K, so this wk we find out there WAS indeed a plan that TEDDY was in on. So she basically did the same thing she’s accusing Lisa of doing - she conspired to make Dorit look bad by having John Sessa come on camera and talk about the dog situation, then acts shocked and oblivious when it all goes down.

It’s called being under contract - if, after your trial first season, Bravo decides they wanna add you as a full time cast member, you sign a contract for a certain number of seasons, 2, 3, whatever and they expire and renew every couple of years. So if LVP signed a contract to film seasons 7-9 for X amount of $ and then she just walks away, they can sue her ass for breach of contract, they can literally come after every dime she’s earned from them the last 3 seasons. I think you’re in “double down on my point” mode, so you prolly won’t really take in what’s being said here, but for everyone else wondering, this is likely why she didn’t just walk away. This is showbiz.

How do you know she never discussed him? You don’t. You only know that, up until this point, Bravo has not shown you any footage of her discussing him. They don’t film her 24/7, nor do they air even 1/10th of all the footage they have. Seriously, it’s recommended by any professional that you have at least 40x the amount of footage as the time slot for what airs, since it gives you wiggle room on the cutting room floor. You could see it on her face, the way she talks about him, that’s real and that’s raw. It’s playing over and over again in her head, their entire relationship. He lived in the UK, but up until 15 years ago, so did Lisa, so it’s quite possible they saw a lot of each other throughout their adult lives. We know he visited her here in the USA, there’s a picture of him at one of her restaurants. She also mentioned they fought sometimes, which indicates more than a surface-deep relationship. They are also very close in age, so they were raised together, grew up together. This is someone she has a LOT of memories with. I get the impression you’ve never experienced the death of a family member and all the complexities that come along with it. My parents, for example, I wouldn’t call us close. We don’t talk every day. They get on my last nerve at times, we don’t always see eye to eye in major areas of life and I’m fine with that. But last summer, when my mom called me and told me my dad was diagnosed with prostate cancer, I freaked out, it shook my world. It’s hard to explain, but the thought of an immediate family member that you grew up with, that’s consistently been around throughout all your life, even if just in passing as an adult, the thought of losing that will shake you. Even if you don’t see or talk to them every day, they are such a big part of your early life and where you come from. When you lose them, especially so suddenly and without warning (as was the case for LVP), I’m sure it’s even more traumatizing, bc you had no time to mentally prepare for the loss. If you don’t get it, you don’t get it, but by the looks of it here, most of us do.

I disagree about Rinna, she is not calculating, she is messy. There’s a difference. She’s impulsive and doesn’t think before she speaks, but she is not calculating the way LVP is. Regarding PuppyGate, I’m not sure what to think. After reading what John Sessa has to say, I’m inclined to believe him. I think John Sessa was pissed the fuck off after hearing what Dorit did, especially since this was the 2nd time she’d done so and it was a dog he’d hand-reared himself for the first 8 wks of her life. I think he told Lisa he wanted to let the world know what Dorit did, I think this was his idea. I think Lisa probably protested him, but since it wasn’t really about her and she likes/respects John Sessa, she didn’t really put up too much of a fight and figured, “Ok, if he’s gonna do this, he’s gonna do this, but I’ll just keep saying STOP so Dorit knows I don’t condone/agree with him trying to make her look bad.” She didn’t stop, fire or cut ties with John Sessa because she agreed with him/was sympathetic to his POV, but that doesn’t mean she supported the way he went about it. She didn’t set it up or agree with it, she just didn’t care enough to stop it, it wasn’t her battle to fight. I think John Sessa is being honest, this was all him, he was pissed. The only thing LVP is “guilty” of here is perhaps not trying harder to shut it down or stop John, but she doesn’t owe Dorit that. She’s not gonna risk having tension with John Sessa, a man she clearly respects and likes (he was involved in the Stop Yukon doc and a couple other big animal projects, so they share a common passion) by cutting him off or having a serious fight with him over a mistake Dorit made. I get it. I’ll say this, tho. I think the cast is right about her overall, that she’s calculating, manipulative and also insecure as hell, needs to always be center of attention and taking jabs at someone. She always needs to feel superior and have the upper hand in every interpersonal exchange, every relationship dynamic. This works well when she’s dealing with troubled people like Brandi or her much younger subordinates (Vanderpump Rules), bc they don’t expect for her to interact with him as an equal. But among her peers of similar social status and class, like Dorit and Kyle, LVP really struggles, bc they expect to interact with you as an equal and be treated as one and that is not a dynamic LVP is comfortable with, she is too insecure and too needy for that to work for her long-term.

Honestly, after all Joe’s put her through, I don’t blame her for being like, “Enough.” Joe better hope the judge re-considers!

I guess so. I feel like they coulda got a spin-off show with Bravo about their new lives in Italy! LOL. I think maybe her daughters really don’t wanna move there, they’ve created lives here, too. Idk.

Wait, I’m confused as to how parole works. Teresa was sentenced to 15 months in prison and did 11. How is she still on parole all these years later? I thought parole couldn’t exceed your max possible release date, which woulda been 4 months after Teresa was let out early for good behavior. So confused.
