I wish they left in the reason he was "over the group" and hostile. Anyone catch the evil face she shot him at the end? Damn there was so much going on there they weren't showing us.. Grrr! And wow at Scheana not catching on to how dumb the "one therapy session" story sounded the first hundred interviews n scenes she said it in. Thanku stassi's side eye.

Apparently the sunglass company they always promote on their instas sponsored the entire wedding. Lol at the continuity f*ck-up from the super wierd pre-nup brokeness to casual 20k checks weeks later. They're a mess when it comes to faking finances. Remember when Jax kept complaining that Britney needed hooters shifts to help pay bills? Cringeworthy when he's telling interviewers about the sports car he bought his dad (and multiple for himself). I do think Jax gets the most though.

She is loyal to Andy and the network though. She said she got reamed by execs from nbc to bravo after telling Stern her salary (again, bc it kills the "magic") so same leverage over her and Kim to zip it, if that's the case.

I've always thought that everyone knows exactly what it is, Rinna included. Kim repeating that they've "ALL talked about it" w such confidence, Kyle's please dont go there shock-face and Rinna's immediate explosion to shut her up, rather then taking a second to think wtf is kim talking about... My guess is there is a fairly open secret about their marriage and the women had gossiped about it. Then there was the rumor that Bravo had her shut up. I know the VDP stars complain that the network will cut certain convos (topics like jax' drug use) so things, or images, dont get too dark. I could see them wanting to keep Rinna clean for awhile.

Where?! My first thought was how slim n hot she looked lol. LVP must look like a centaur to you.

Hmm take some time to visit lipstickalley forum.. Kandi's sexcapades have long been documented lol

+1. Kim brings up da homies *yolo accent* as a way to gang up by proxy, not to be a loyal friend (imo ofcourse). I get second hand embar when she pulls those selfish segues you're describing. All I hear is Kim yelling "but she hurt ME TOO?!" at Lvp's vow renewal when kyle dared to discuss adrienne's gripes without a footnote to kim's superior victimhood.. from a fight a year prior... that she had long resolved w Brandi. Lol exhausting!

Scheana told LVP last season that Shay wasn't working and I heard her on a podcast explaining that Shay was really unhappy on the show because he wasn't paid as a principal but his business was still all out there bc of Scheana. She said after the wedding he really didn't want to be on the show but contracts were signed etc. It still seems like he's not working and chasing music pipe dreams.

LOl my bad. Bambi>everyone indeed

What's ur take on it?

Juicy!! This makes a lot of sense in the context of Stassi being pissed at Lisa for paying him off without signing anything or consulting Stassi. I actually thought their argument about it at the reunion was the most successful beasting of Lisa anyone has ever accomplished. I can't think of any other time Lisa foreal had someone ruffle her feathers and take her to task. I think Andy was even surprised and kind of ended it because Lisa was about to get nasty. This would explain why Lisa did it behind her back. I love Pinky but I was really proud of Stassi for not backing down.

One of her assistants totally nailed it last season, Kyle has body dysmorphia like a Mofo. To dig further in my useless anecdotal bag I remember Kim teasing her about weight season one so I'm guessing Kyle has a complex.

I love any crumbs about LVPs real self and a lot of this tracks, mixxed in with fairly transparent bullshit. I've always wondered about her parents, I can't remember her ever saying a word about them so I can believe that there's a fractured relationship. I remember when he posted that letter from production after the Sur opening episode, there was talk about the Vanderpump rules (then unnamed) Spinoff being centered around him or something like that. Whether that was smoke blown from the producer or was legit, perhaps that was part of the discourse.

Eek I waiting for someone to snark on this! While he seems very cool and talented.. barf. Not to mention he was an admitted cokehead (and got over a lean addiction now that im remembering) till recently. But she couldn't date a smoker.

Watching now and check the editing out again, it's far from seamless so I doubt she interrupted anything. It actually drives me crazy how they refuse to let us watch a good conversation once in a while. They're constantly cutting in and out then the THs blah blah. The VERY few times in a season they let something play out in a serious moment, it stands out so much to me because of the change in rhythm.

Well said. Kyle almost gets the advantage of being white washed by how poorly Kim treated her season 5. I'm curious which examples you have in mind because reading your post immediately made me think of Kyle endlessly needling her in Hawaii. Kim was a hot mess but it was so unproductive the way Kyle just ruined the atmosphere till the last drop when she knew exactly why Kim was mia/late etc.. then the next season I remember somebody telling Kyle that they ran into Kim at a cigar bar, cut to Kyle in a talking head clutching pearls saying "that couldnt possibly be true? I mean Kim is telling me she's sober!" Sooo phoney. I think part of it is just Kyle's personality aka the "eggbeater" in that she doesn't know when to let things go. Yolanda thought this was why Carlton got testy and now that I think about it Camille as well, where Kyle tends to ask questions incessantly and to the point where people become offended.

Ugh yes! She did the same thing to Rinna at Wally's when she wouldn't cosign Vanderpump's manipulative ways. to me this was the most frustrating omission at the reunion. Eileen was so explicitly manipulating Rinna in the exact manner (actually worse) she was accusing LVP yet this obvious counterargument was never aired. I say "aired" not "made" because it's too blatant to not have been said. Even more strange is Eileen's blindness to her own glaring hypocrisy.

Speaking of her grief, did you notice anything odd about Eileen's son when they were cleaning her mothers house? I never care to comment about the kids but is it normal at his age to be so insensitive to his grandmothers death? He gave her a hard time saying it's time to get over it and then pretended to be sad as a joke. It kind of makes me empathize for her grieving shame. Like damn dexter vinny jr!

Oh for sure, agree but thought I was going too deep conspiracy LOL I mean what kind of a way to start the trip is asking people to spill their hardships? I think Yolanda wanted to get the dui talk out of the way but I agree the rest was a straight alley-oop (sp?).

See everything here about Rinna was phony to me. The first hardship Lisa thinks to share is her sister who died when Lisa was a child (not her dying father or sick mother, who if I remember was also struggling and had to move from their home..) No, Lisa conveniently seems to exploit something that will give her an opening to once again shift to kim, in quite a clever way because it's hard to call shenanigans on such a sensitive topic followed by an "apology", that Rinna already gave on the plane while Kim is screaming at her to never speak on it again, apology or not. to the poster who wrote how Lisa has mastered the non sequitor to storyline pivot, (zoeysmom) I totally agree and think this is a really smooth example of it. maybe I'm a cynic but when I watched the dinner again its clear why kim was glaring at Lisa because she knew where it was going and what she was doing. Kim going off at everyone else was disgusting, not arguing that just to be clear.

This!! Kim was so evil in Amsterdam that it was easy to dismiss how infuriating it would be to have this bobbling bob glommed onto your deepest/darkest struggle. And I call bullshit on the car ride being a terrifying experience for Rinna. First of all it was pretty hilarious in a dark insane Richards way. Not to mention it was clearly heading towards teaser highlight of the season material, which is the cream that wets a c-list vets panties. And Kim was already being a nut at her house so if she was actually scared she wouldn't have gone ahead to Malibu w her. Basically.. bring on next week!

I keep seeing people say this, do you remember where? On Brandy's podcast she was practically begging Carlton to say Lisa dropped her after the show and Carlton refused the bait and said Lisa is very busy but they have kept in touch here and there.. did she flip the script somewhere else?

It's not the first time light humor has gone over her head so I'm guessing it's both. It's just so strange because she gives off the impression that she's a ball buster but she's far from.

Thank you! The way Lisa used her sisters overdose and Harry's brothers "dropping dead" drove me crazy! So phony. not to be insensitive but she was like 6 when her sister died I really doubt that played any part in her riding Kim. And how insensitive is it to constantly bring up your families issues while using the term "drop dead" it was all just gross and insincere. I remember that anecdote about Erica and Tom being very telling. Obviously Tom must trivialize her singing career for her to be staying up at night getting riled up enough to wake him up and retort lol. Interesting to get a glimpse of what's going on there.
