motorcitymom65 July 8, 2014 Share July 8, 2014 I disagree. Adrienne apologized when the word Slander was mentioned, not before. I also noticed that a lot of the stories that were leaked where leaked by Adrienne's Chef, Bernie. Makes you wonder who was really behind the story, him or his boss. Oh, I think Adrienne was absolutely behind some of that stuff. She was no innocent. I just think that she truly believed Lisa was doing it too. Someone mentioned the pics of Adrienne and Brandi looking friendly in an eariler post. Here are the pictures of them hugging it out. In some of the pictures it looks like they were filming. Love to hear that Lisa R will be joining. I hope Brandi hates her. I understand that Lisa R and Kyle are friends, so this should prove interesting. http://radaronline.com/photos/brandi-glanville-adrienne-maloof-hug-make-up/photo/684514/ 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/1866-rhobh-in-the-media/page/2/#findComment-183269
phoenix780 July 8, 2014 Share July 8, 2014 Hmm. Lisa Rinna. I only know her from her second stint on Days of Our Lives back in the, um, day, so it'll be weird seeing her essentially on the same level as someone like Brandi. I think I make a distinction between an actress and a reality show participant- I never saw Kim/Kyle as actresses and "met" them in this format- so my brain will have to make that adjustment, I think.

PhilMarlowe2 July 8, 2014 Share July 8, 2014 Adrienne never said it like it was a huge nasty allegation; she just stated it in a sentence like it was no big thing. I think that the fact that Lisa became so offended and urgent in her denial hit Adrienne hard and I don't think she expected it. I think she was embarrassed and realized that perhaps she had it all slightly wrong and that she looked like a fool. She apologized immediately, which you rarely ever see any of the HW's do on these shows. Oh, I saw it completely differently. I thought Adrienne was very obviously trying to get a major dig in against Lisa. In fact, I remember Lisa asking her, "Why would I ever sell stories to the press?" or something like that and Adrienne replied (quite haughtily), "I wouldn't know - I don't sell stories!" Adrienne was pissed at Lisa that season and I felt she was clearly using the allegations to malign Lisa's character. 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/1866-rhobh-in-the-media/page/2/#findComment-184507

You are correct in that I think that Adrienne was trying to get a dig in to an extent, and she was certainly pissed at Lisa about the shoe comment and Pandora's party in Vegas. My main point is that I think that Adrienne actually believed it. The original comment was in response to someone saying that Adrienne knew it was a lie when she said it. I I don't think she did; I think she believed it to her core. I think she poked at Lisa until Lisa became so passionate, and then she realized that she might have it wrong. She looked a bit stunned to me by Lisa's passion, which is when she apologized. I think she knew that she was in the wrong and looked bad in her accusation. The clip is attached below. Note that they bleeped out the name of the reporter who was making the claim (Camille had heard this rumor as well, and of course Taylor made the original accusation during the season). Radar On Line issue a statement later where they defended Lisa, but also Adrienne to an extent. They basically said that Lisa had never sold a story, but that Adrienne had been given such information, which was false. http://www.bravotv.com/the-real-housewives-of-beverly-hills/season-2/videos/never-sold-a-story?cid=related_sfv_OCT13_A 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/1866-rhobh-in-the-media/page/2/#findComment-184576

motorcitymom65 July 9, 2014 Share July 9, 2014 eta slade I agree with your point about Faye. But don't you think it is a different senario with LisaR? My thought is, Faye was actively auditioning for the show ON THE SHOW and had to do SOMETHING to make herself get noticed, whereas LisaR was cast for the show without having to audtion ON THE SHOW. LisaR's real life stuff was her in to be a RH. Does that make sense? I agree with this. When I was watching some old episodes, I was surprised to see how often Faye was in the background at various events in S1 and S2. One of them was one of Lisa's Charity deals (the one where Camille sent a text to Kyle effectively firing Mauricio). Since it was Lisa's event, it looks like she had invited Faye. I think she was around a lot but we never heard boo from her until she was auditioning for the show (except of course at Camille's dinner party). I don't like Faye for reasons that have nothing to do with the show. On the show, I had no issues with her because I agreed with every single word out of her mouth, and I think she has proven to be correct on most things. Her delivery and timing sucked, but the timing of drama always sucks on this show - do it at dinner or on vacation - that is the contrived formula. It seems like she is a long time, good friend of Kyle's, and Kyle stuck by her even when folks were brutal towards her. I remember even Lisa V and Brandi saying that Faye was getting death threats. Kyle didn't drop her despite the fact that everyone in the US and abroad basically hated her. I think she judged Faye by how she treated her. I cannot see any difference between their friendship and the one that developed between Brandi and Lisa V. Brandi was always a horrible person, but as long as she was a good, loyal friend to Lisa V, she was fine with her. She stood behind her during the whole awful Adrienne deal. She was fine with her until she went after her. I would imagine Kyle would drop Faye similarly if she stabbed her in the back in such a manner. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/1866-rhobh-in-the-media/page/2/#findComment-187260

Adrienne and Faye are good friends as well (Faye dated one of Adrienne's brothers, cousins or something years ago). She felt like she had every right to have an opinion about something terrible that Brandi had just done to Adrienne. Kyle should have shut that down, but the fact is Brandi was in the wrong. We have seen before and since that it seems to be hard for these gals to shut this shit down. For example, Lisa sitting mute (or laughing) while Brandi went after Joyce, when Joyce, unlike Brandi in a similar situation, had done nothing wrong at all. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/1866-rhobh-in-the-media/page/2/#findComment-187582

PhilMarlowe2 July 9, 2014 Share July 9, 2014 Brandi sucked for bringing up Adrienne's surrogacy, but it just wasn't Faye's business. I don't care if Faye was close to Adrienne or not - it was not her battle to fight. And as much as I fault Brandi for her behavior, I absolutely believe that Adrienne did the things that Brandi said she did (namely, calling her up, trying to intimidate her into retracting her statements, then trying to get her fired from the show). The last one, in particular, would be really gross - for this super-rich woman to be cutting a single mother off from potential income. Two wrongs don't make a right, but I seriously doubt Adrienne was innocent in all of this, and that is why Faye should have saved her finger-pointing for some situation that actually had a direct effect on her. Also, didn't Faye try to blame Brandi for Paul and Adrienne's divorce? Nonsense. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/1866-rhobh-in-the-media/page/2/#findComment-187808

I wish she'd REPLACED Brandi..... I agree with this. I never watched DOOL so my viewing experience with Lisa Rinna has been on her reality show with Harry, and her appearances on Celebrity Apprentice and stuff like that. I went into Lisa Loves Harry set for total snark but damn...I couldn't really find anything. They both seemed like really down-to-earth people leading a very average life despite their celebrity status and money, and I found them both very likable people. The kind of people who are totally approachable and who would just be fun to hang out with. I don't think that's a statement I could make about many (if any) other reality show participants. And I love the way they (especially Lisa) have that self-deprecating sense of humor and snark on themselves. And, just my personal opinion, but I've always thought Lisa Rinna has THE best hair in the industry. Even though it's been the same basic cut for years, she has it tweaked just enough where it doesn't look dated and mixes up her base and highlights just enough where it never looks boring. It always looks fabulous and appropriate, but easy to maintain. If she's as personable on RHOBH as she's been on other shows, I think she'll be a nice addition. Plus, I think she and Harry are always doing interesting things and it might get us back to that lovely season 1 look into the real lives of these Beverly Hills housewives instead of just the constant producer-manipulated drama.

When Adrienne first got on the show, she did an interview where she said we wouldn't really see much of her kids because she didn't want them to grow up with cameras in their face because she thought it was an invasion. You are correct in that we did get glimpses of them - the barbecue, swimming once, playing in the backyard, running from the fire across the street - and she brought them to events like Kennedy's b-day party, etc. I don't remember their faces being obscured, just that they didn't speak or take part in the action. They were there sometimes, but clearly not mic'd or part of the story. We didn't see any birthday parties for her kids, or any other events where they would have taken center stage.

I think the only way we really find out is when the women start putting out pictures on their social media and we can see the new women for ourselves. I don't know why they handle it this way.

cooksdelight July 19, 2014 Share July 19, 2014 I think I remember reading about Carlton long before the show aired, that she was a new housewife. They forgot to tell us she sucked. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/1866-rhobh-in-the-media/page/2/#findComment-213800
georgekush July 19, 2014 Share July 19, 2014 Bravo and E Online are sister networks. If E Online reports it, I wholeheartedly believe it. They always have accurate information about the upcoming seasons, for instance they had the exclusive on Dina coming back to RHONJ, they also reported Lizzie as the 5th RHOC, and they did in fact report Rinna was joining the cast.

msblossom July 20, 2014 Share July 20, 2014 I've wanted Lisa Rinna on this show since rumors swirled 2 seasons ago that she was joining. She could definitely hold her own on Celebrity Apprentice so she'll do fine with these catty bitches. And Harry Hamlin -- hummuna hummuna. Swoon.

motorcitymom65 July 20, 2014 Share July 20, 2014 To my knowledge Bravo confirms nothing about hiring or firing until they absolutely have to. We heard about Carlton and Joyce last year, but not from Bravo. We heard about it from other news outlets. Same thing with Carlton and Joyce not coming back. If Bravo has confirmed it, I am not aware of it. I think they do this because a gal can still end up on the editing room floor. The media reported for months that this Danielle gal was a new HW on the OC show, but when it aired, she was not even a "friend of". She was apparently supposed to be a full time gal, but they edited her out. Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/1866-rhobh-in-the-media/page/2/#findComment-216120
Pickles July 23, 2014 Share July 23, 2014 It is being reported that Eileen Davidson from the Young and the Restless is joining the cast along with Lisa Rinna. Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/1866-rhobh-in-the-media/page/2/#findComment-225561

Lura July 24, 2014 Share July 24, 2014 (edited) I have had a longtime battle with myself over liking/disliking Kyle, and for quite some time now, I've disliked her. I point to Game Night and to dinner at Kyle's house with Faye as two examples of why I think Kyle is a mean girl. I'm 50% in favor of Lisa R. joining the cast, BUT ... someone upthread mentioned that Lisa and Kyle are friends. In my mind, I saw a red, flashing warning light. I immediately had questions about whether or not Lisa R. would be another Faye. If we're about to go back to the Kyle and Faye days, I'm bowing out. To me, that wasn't entertainment; it was torture. Why sit through yet another series of Kyle having others do her dirty work? I'm hard pressed to see how two people who are friends in real life can possibly not be friends on a reality show. While I would be thrilled if Lisa R could get Brandi where it hurts, I question whether she can be objective on the show. What about Lisa V? I haven't read that she's signed anything yet. Is she still holding out? Either the media has stopped caring, or I've missed the announcement.

cooksdelight July 24, 2014 Share July 24, 2014 I don't think Lisa R. will be another Faye. She's too down-to-earth and doesn't think she's the world's answer to reality TV. At least, I'm hopeful. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/1866-rhobh-in-the-media/page/2/#findComment-227327

Regarding Lisa R and her friendship with Kyle: she is also friends with Lisa V. It means nothing to me either way. Kyle had Faye and Lisa V. had Brandi. They all look to find others to do their dirty work. At least Faye was 100% correct in everything that she said, even if she is a horrible person in general. 4 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/1866-rhobh-in-the-media/page/2/#findComment-227603
msblossom July 24, 2014 Share July 24, 2014 Lura, I am guessing you don't know much about Rinna. Apples and oranges, Lura, I think you'll be fine with her. I actually like Kyle, for the most part, with the exception that she has a hard time letting things go and tends to replay her grievances over and over again -- so damn annoying. Anyhoo, that said, with regard to Rinna, she's nothing like Faye. Rinna is extremely likable, funny, and although she can hold her own, she comes across in a completely different way. She is friends with Lisa Vanderpump and Kyle in real life and is friendly with Kim. Eileen Davidson is an interesting choice, if true. I guess Bravo wants soap opera actresses now to prevent the viewers from boredom. The thing that bugs me about this is there will be less reality and more manufactured drama -- ick. 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/1866-rhobh-in-the-media/page/2/#findComment-228065
cooksdelight July 24, 2014 Share July 24, 2014 she has a hard time letting things go and tends to replay her grievances over and over again And she CONSTANTLY wants an apology.

msblossom July 24, 2014 Share July 24, 2014 Agreed. And then when she gets an apology, it may not be to her liking. She needs to talk less and listen more, imo. She sets herself up for disappointment because no one can meet her expectations. People like Kyle often have to learn the hard way and that is through loss and suffering, it's the only way for some people to make the connection to stop majoring in the minors and you just have to let things go and focus on what is really important in life. Kyle has a thick head to be sure. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/1866-rhobh-in-the-media/page/2/#findComment-228188
