Lala is going to start looking for a new sugar daddy.

I always thought she settled way too quickly on Randall and had a feeling that her smugly kept woman lifestyle she so swiftly settled into would just as swiftly blow up in her face.
There are tons of other rich businessmen in Hollywood that she could’ve chosen besides Randall, with his excess baggage and sketchy producer credits. She should’ve held off for a better deal, quite frankly!

And let’s be honest here: she allowed a married man with young kids to pursue her. Some commenter on another site had the nerve to argue with me that he was “separated” when they first hooked up, but legally married is still officially married; I’d bet money that he was playing around with her and other gals even while he was still “happily” married. One of the biggest open secrets in the seedier Hollywood scene was Randall’s known tendency to approach other young women to be his sugar babies; the irony is that LaLa thought she somehow ‘won’ him in the end, when other women in her position were smart enough to steer clear of the creep.

Now she’s just another over 30, over-Botoxed  Hollywood babymama on a failing reality show competing with girls 10+ years younger than her for sugar daddies. Good luck with that!

If LaLa could’ve got a better sugar daddy I’m sure she would’ve. She prob had to settle on fake rich Randall.

THAT ^^^^ was some awesome $hit! So true.

It will be interesting (the ONLY interesting aspect of this show) to see how many of these VPR cast members are still married in 5 years. 

I'm happy for Lala's baby that it doesn't look like her daddy.

Without the show, none of them will stay together.  Why tf is Ariana still with Tom?  They have nothing in common in terms of values, and she hasn't been into him since season 4 - over 5 years ago!!

Wasn't LaLa dating a few professional athletes before Randall ?

I know that Randall is an aspiring Pickleball All Star, but he won't get paid  as much as the NBA or NFL athletes make.

And considering her so-called acting career was comprised mostly of her appearing in Chinless Wonder's failure movies (and we're told she "won" the role through auditions every time), she can probably kiss that income stream goodbye.  

I saw an article where some idiot was promoting Randall as some high-powered mogul - stating that he'd made over 110 movies that had COLLECTIVELY made $1.2 billion at the box office.  Uh....that's an average of about $10 Mil a movie.  And looking at BoxOfficeMojo, most of his crap lately hasn't hit even $100,000 in receipts.  Most of his crap looks almost like straight to video and/or streaming service.  

He has something like six or seven movies that have been "announced" but apparently aren't even in pre-production.  I'm thinking he's having trouble scrounging up the financing.   Even bankable producers are losing big bucks these days.  "The Irishman" (where I believe Emmett was probably a minor producer since he couldn't talk Scorcese into giving Lala a part), which was well received and highly praised, lost something like $200 million, even with the star fire power of Pacino, DeNiro and Pesci.  

I don't see how Hollywood would see Emmett as bankable in this day and age.   One indulgence I made a few years ago was to buy a 72" 4K TV and sound bar.  I can enjoy movies on MY time from the various streaming services or even the On Demand.  There's precious little coming out that makes me want to deal with a movie theater these days.

I suspect that Tom S and Ariana are nothing more than roommates IRL.  They might hook up sexually once in a blue moon, but I’m not even sure they do that. I think they’re friends who cohabitate and split the bills.  Ariana doesn’t even have a storyline outside of being Sandoval’s significant other.  JMHO

I just read that in the Daily Mail, and my response was “thank God!”  She dodged a major bullet by not marrying him.  He would’ve made her life beyond miserable.  I just pray that she doesn’t go back to him, if/when he decides that he doesn’t like being single.

[Marley]

Good for her getting away from that little psycho. The article said she returned the ring while the reunion was being filmed tho so that seems fishy to me. I sense a James spiraling storyline tho. Hopefully the show is cancelled tho it’s done for sure.

Good for her. I've actually developed a soft spot for her, and whether this is manufactured for the show or not, I hope she runs like the wind and never looks back. James is never going to improve sober or not.

Maybe James and Lala will re-hook up now that they're both at loose ends. If ever there was a pair that deserved each other, it's those two!

Vanderpump Rules Fans Question Brock Davies’ Plan for Quickie Wedding to Scheana Shay

Quote

Brock Davies tried to pull off a same-day proposal and wedding, but it wasn’t meant to be. On the December 28 episode of “Vanderpump Rules,” the fitness guru cooked up a plan to surprise Scheana Shay with an instant wedding, but his lack of organizational skills – and funds – caused things to go awry.

After Brock asked Randall Emmett for help executing his plan by staging a fake movie premiere that would serve as the setting for his proposal, Lala Kent shut things down when her assistant asked if she should put the deposit for the venue on her credit card. In what appeared to be an awkward end to the story, Brock revealed that the venue “canceled” things on him and he couldn’t go through with his plan to propose to Scheana and marry her on the spot...

They are engaged now I think. I don’t buy Scheana would want a quickie wedding she wants all the bells and whistles and attention on her lol. No way she would do a courthouse wedding either.

Yes, she interviewed a few women. She purports to have made her decision based on the claim of the woman she hired that she was aware of the Give Them Lala brand even before preparing to interview for the job.

Keep in mind, Lala also has a day nurse and night nurse. 
 

Supposedly, bRand got tired of Lala asking his assistant to help her.

I think LaLa hired the only person who didn't know about her brand. I recall the first interviewee said she looked it up on Google and the interview ended.

Yep, trying to be like the wife of an actual A-list celebrity, like Camille Grammer, who has FOUR nannies - two for each of her children.  But insists that she's there "all the time for my children."

I think Scheana might like it if it was the original plan (which I assume she dictated):  a big fancy party that was all about surprising her, and everyone knew it was about her, etc.  I don't think she'd like to sneak around the corner from someone else's party and keep it an actual secret 😄

She is more emotionally intelligent than I suspected. Good for you, Raquel. Poor Sandoval (if he actually did pay for half of Rachella). 

[Marley]

Her being afraid of his reaction for that convo just proves how right she was to leave him. He is a POS who unfortunately will abuse a partner in the future.

James might be nice to her now but once she gets in another relationship he will start calling her a whore I’m sure.

I do side eye the timing of it all tho.

Right?! I’m so proud of her for finally walking away from his mess in such a classy and mature fashion. That whole story of him blowing up at her family over the holidays proves what an egotistical asshole he truly is; this time with the future in-laws is when a guy needs to be on his very best behavior!
So if he’s ALREADY getting that obnoxious with them, she was right to see the foreshadowing there and get out as smoothly as possible while she still could.
 

Good for her! And he *really* needs to look into seeking far more serious therapy/anger management for his future relationships.

Another article in that link is Lala talking about how she got a "prenup" with Randall because she's all about "a Plan B."

Uh, honey - you never made it to Plan A.  Prenups are about marriage.  So it's about as valuable as that phony ring you claim he gave you.

Raquel was the guest on Scheana’s podcast last week, and she was awesome.  I always thought that she was sort of an unintelligent airhead, and I feel really bad about that now.  She’s intelligent, caring, mature, and very well-spoken.  She’s the whole package.  James, the dumbass, will never land another girl of Raquel’s caliber.  He screwed up big time by losing her.

Lala LOVES to stroke her own ego, and while we’re on the subject of Lala…

Stassi and Beau’s little girl had her first birthday a few days ago.  Lala was there (with Ocean), and her birthday gift to Hartford was a pair of little gold hoop earrings.  She was being videoed while talking about the earrings.  She laughed and when she did, her face has so much Botox in it that she looks like something straight out of a horror movie.  It’s pathetic.

Does Brittany not have her own thread?  Maybe because she's no longer on the show.  Anyway....just wanted to add that she announced on Instagram yesterday that she's the new spokeswoman for Jenny Craig.  She can't be THE spokeswoman, correct?  I'd think it's just another paid partnership for her to do some low-rent Instagram talking heads, but I guess I could be wrong.  I wouldn't think enough people would even know who Brittany was.

I would imagine they have more than one spokesperson. (Here's People's write up of the announcement). 

With regard to whether or not enough people know who Brittany is - remember that not everyone needs to know who Brittany is, just enough of the targeted demographic they want to reach.  So if Brittany has enough name recognition of women between, say, the ages of 30 and 45, then it makes sense for them to hire her as a spokesperson.  I suspect they likely hired her because they want to hit a certain demographic and they think she'll help to reach that demographic.

I thought so too, but when I watched ads for Jenny Craig, they feature a lot of just regular, non-famous people - teachers, nurses, accountants, etc. and they give a background of their lives and what caused them to gain weight and how JC (or WW) has helped them.  Most people watching Brittany would not know who she is, but when she talks about the challenges of losing weight after having a baby, millions of women around her age will find themselves being able to relate to her.

 

She should also get her implants removed.  She's going to want more than one child, and they're going to become so bothersome afterwards.

They'll all have to hike up to her mansion to pay obeisance if there's a new season.

I think she will be a tad bitter that her last ploy of locking down the high life didn’t pan out better for her. I think she will be more cautious because she’s probably learned that Rand was a lot of smoke and mirrors and she wants to find a better Sugar daddy. Lastly I bet she’s beginning to worry because being the bait for a rich man gets harder as you age.

Interesting.   So Lala is trying to excuse her bitch behavior by saying that she did it "for the money"?  As I recall, Bravo takes a very dim view of people making claims like this, and Lala is no longer affiliated with anyone with a Hollywood rep so she's really bitten the hand that feeds.   As of two days ago, the series had not been renewed or cancelled, and I would have assumed they would have started filming by now.
