Leah McSweeney: Designer to the Mob

[geauxaway]

So.....she can go off on Ramona about “exposing” her BPD, but why isn’t she on her meds?   If she is so empowered I would like her to articulate WHY she is not taking meds for her diagnoses.  Maybe she has.  I don’t follow her and don’t care to.  I’m certainly not going to watch her “special.”

Because not everyone who is bipolar chooses to use medication to treat it.

Are you implying that being the public face of an organization of pedophiles, rapists and murderers is a bad thing? smh. She needs to get booted from the show immediately. It's not good for her, her family, or the viewers. Girl, bye.

Leah's addition, like Brandi's was on BH, shows the seedy and trashy side of each city.

Not all of NYC is glamorous.

I keep thinking about this. Even with the sex advice column, the clothing line, the edginess - she’s a lot more basic and bland than she realizes. There’s nothing wrong with being basic or bland but she tries to play off like she’s so very different but she’s not. 

I’m just now catching up on this season and I’m about half way through and Leah is neither here nor there for me. I could see how she could be interesting but she’s not. Part of the problem is she’s very typical of a particular type: these middle to upper middle class suburban kids that go through wild party phases and then clean up (ish) to have kids but still run around screaming about how edgy they are. Every time she claims to be so weird or unconventional, I just roll my eyes. Because, honey, we produce plenty of you over in non-glamorous Fresno, CA. She’s just painfully a type of person you find a lot of places.There are some details about her past and her business and her relationship with her ex that could be interesting but she keeps sort of vague and contradictory about that stuff. So as it stands right now she’s just another ex party kid with a “cool”Photography/Hair Salon/Boutique/Food Truck/Yoga Studio/Whatever business that I suspect is/was heavily subsidized by family. I already know that girl. That girl lives in my building. Maybe she gets more interesting later in the season?

She used the settlement from her lawsuit against the police to start up her street wear business. 
I don’t think she becomes more interesting. 
 

Before the show, the edgy Leah who fought with celebrities on social media, wrote for Penthouse, praised cam girls and posted instastories while high as a kite was somewhat interesting. This Leah? No. 
I do feel like the show is giving her the platform  and income for the person she’s always wanted to be. More designer wear, popularity, luxe vacations, adoration.

The new season is boring with Leah dominating every scene so I'm rewatching some of the older seasons and began watching Season 7 when Dorinda first came on as a regular.  I miss this Dorinda!!  What happened to her? How sad.  I ended up hating her by her last season when she became so fixated on tormenting Tinsley.  But with this years cast I'd take a coked up Dorinda with her sweaty gansta boyfriend and a little something white on her bottom lip any day over dull Leah who is a try hard cool girl.  I miss the past seasons! 😭

The way things are going with Leah especially, I thought maybe Bravo would let her go.  Lo and behold, I read Leah will be back next season, plus bringing on another new friend with her.  Before we know it, the veteran girls will be gone.  That will be the end of N.Y. for me.  My home town going down the drain.  I will miss Ramona and LuAnn.  Sonja turned out to be a phony bitch.  I watched all the first seasons on Hulu with the original crowd, Bethenny, Jill and the others.  I could not stop watching.  They were fabulous.  Kelly too.  The best.  The husbands too.

Nooooo!!! I was hoping Leah was fired. I don’t know if I can take another season of her shit. And a friend of hers too?! RHONY is going from my favs housewives franchise to my least fave.

I absolutely can't understand why they think bringing boring, wannabe Leah back-- and with a friend!-- will be a good thing!  I agree with the vets being gone before we know it.  That may explain the total sucking up we saw from Luanne toward Leah the last show.  She was so fake and appeasing to Leah when we know she wouldn't have tolerated this type person in the past at all.  I'm almost out since the addition of Leah, if she's truly back next season then I'm OUT.

I hope this is just a rumor. It seems like very few people across many social media platforms can’t stand her.

I’m trying to remember where I read it.  I’ll have to look around.  Sometimes Newsday says something as Andy lives in the Hamptons and City.  I don’t know what Andy and Bravo sees in Leah.  She acts like a spoiled crazy teen.  Then, to being in one of her friends?  If it’s true, when will we find out?  After the reunion? I see BH and N.Y. Have lost viewers.  Have to see what happens on Orange County.  The world is changing big time.

I’ve tried googling about season 14 and the cast and can’t find much other then Bravo wanting to shake it up and some talks with some radio host lady. As long as Leah is gone I don’t really care who is on the cast lol. I would like Luann and Ramona to stay and I don’t really care about Sonja either way.

If they love her on camera so much they should give her and her own friends a different show. I want to see fun and affluence, not someone squished in a smaller place than mine.

Hmmm…. This makes me wonder why she lives in such a small unit. Is she green? Does her summer camp arts & crafts project/business not yield the millions of $ that Bravo/Wikipedia purports?

Feh.

Yeah, she didn’t move in to that building until after she was hired for the show. As you saw last season it’s tiny and she gave her daughter the larger bedroom. She’s still in the same building but a different unit on a lower floor (she said it herself on Instagram so I’m not spilling anything private) 

She has had a lot of collaborations but despite that, I’d guess from social media that thanks to the show she’s selling more MTTM than ever before. 

Before the show she was getting a lot of coverage for her writing if you can call it that. I’ve noticed since the show she’s backed away from a lot of the sex writing, podcast related stuff. I don’t know if she still has the Penthouse column or not. 
 

Edited to add: I’d wager S1 Bethenny had more money than Leah.

I just realized there wasn't a new episode last week so my DVR, of course, didn't record it. This was my favorite since it's inception and it has taken me almost a full week to notice it wasn't on.It is try sad to me that she has ruined this franchise completely. I NEVER watch it live any more because I need to FF through her scenes. I detest Leah.

I think, and pray, that this is a repeat of the Best of Leah Moments that aired at the end of last season.

How the “best of” Leah could encompass an hour is beyond me.

I avoid social media like the plaque, but I do get curious at times (because I need a life) and even Twitter has had enough of Leah.

Ironically, the only thing I liked about Leah was last weeks episode where even she realized Eboni’s mission of “educating” her cast mates on all things race related was actually losing the audience she wanted to impact.

No way, no how, I will not watch that in a box, I will not watch that with a fox, (and I have one in my backyard as I type this). You could not get me to watch this episode of Best of because she is the worst of New York, who among us would be excited about watching an hour of Leah?

[Hangin Out]

I never saw one interesting thing about her.  Always acting like a lunatic screaming and yelling.  Sorry about the Grandmother, but she chose not to be there, and the whole crying thing was way over done IMO.

[Marley]

She’s been on the show barely 2 seasons and all her moments have been trash. And not fun trash. Bravo needs to get a fucking clue lol.

[MsMalin]

I don't know the demographics but maybe they are trying to appeal to a younger and more diverse audience???

[Marley]

I’m not young young but 34 and I find nothing appealing about her. She is fake woke and doesn’t seem like a good person. She thinks she’s hip and cool but she’s really not.

I *think (but I can't remember for sure) that in the mid-season trailer they showed her at a glice rink in Brooklyn in a skating dress and at one point she said something about taking lessons. But I don't think it was ever shown because nobody ever talked about it?

Maybe that is part of her conversion lessons, the rabbi wants her to learn a triple salchow, lol.

[hoodooznoodooz]

Yes. In her intro, at the beginning of each episode, they show her ice skating in an ice skating outfit. She also claims that if she hadn’t overindulged in substances and spent all her free time at Limelight and The Tunnel, she might have become a professional athlete.

I used to watch project runway all the time.  I don’t remember the ultra cheering, fawning and socially distanced asslicking that is shown here.   Is that how it is now? Or only this episode?

[Ms Blue Jay]

Only this episode :). The designers were starstruck by the housewives  :)   And honestly, the Housewives walks were amazing, so much better than models.  Personally I thought that Luann, Gizelle, and Wendy had AMAZING walks.  They had so much fun with it and seemed so confident.
