I agree, but in my head, celebrity/expert endorsements have absolutely no bearing on whether or not the endorser actually uses the product. Don't know if they ever did, but they definitely don't any more. Obviously, there is a large percentage of consumers that are swayed by these ads, or folks wouldn't pay big bucks to the endorsers. The research must bear it out. 1 Link to comment
Drumpf1737 January 3, 2019 Share January 3, 2019 Throwback Thursday pic If EJ's son was living with his Dad at 3 where did he live from infancy to 3? 4 Link to comment

Erika divorced her first husband, her son's father, when her son was 18 months old. So I presume their son was living with both of his parents until then. They probably alternated between Erika and her ex after that until Erika decided to decamp to California. Edited January 16, 2019 by HunterHunted 2 Link to comment

BodhiGurl January 19, 2019 Share January 19, 2019 It's wild watching her first season (doing a rewatch via Hulu) - how more often than not, at least earlier in the season, Erika G was in the house. Slowly as the season progressed we see more Erika J. And now it's all Erika J. Not a fan of her EJ persona - never have been, never will be. I wish EG would come back - her, I didn't mind. Dare I say I liked her. I liked how she stuck up for Yolanda. I like how she wasn't snowed by the other ladies and would stand up to them. EG on the other hand is just one of the flock. I'm disappointed she'll be back - but maybe she'll surprise me and be less EJ all the darn time, but I doubt it. Sigh. 10 Link to comment

And even if you like her on the show... it doesn’t really follow that you want to buy lip plumper called “DSL” or “Pat the Puss” body glitter, in general or just because it’s her. It’s an odd match for Too Faced fans too—it just doesn’t seem like something they’ll get excited over, either because of EJ or because of the colors and products. I love Too Faced but my favorite products have honestly been their peach foundation, Hangover primer, their matte liquid lipstick, and some of their eye shadows. They do neutral with a little sparkle really well—and lately they’ve done too much of this super sparkly stuff, in this kind of colorway. It’s a huge rollout and personally I think they should have kept up the Better Than Sex mascara spokesperson relationship and maybe released a lip kit or two. I’m sure it’s limited edition but still. All this said I still think she’s a good match with the brand! But this is A LOT. 6 Link to comment

I haven't watched a whole lot since Dorit was cast, so I don't have the animosity for her that many do, but Erika wore me out early in her 2nd season. You're right, she's always auditioning, even after she's landed the gig. 9 Link to comment

BodhiGurl February 18, 2019 Share February 18, 2019 I was in Ulta today and happened upon the Too Faced/Erika Jayne collaboration shat show - I was... underwhelmed... also - all the glittery aspects seems wildly off base given Erika is well into her 40's and the glittery thing is generally not something us older gals do - as it can accentuate wrinkles and what not... BUT - I guess for EG's alter ego EJ it's ok -and given she's been botoxed to the max, it can work... anywho... the display was underwhelming as well.

Kiki777 February 19, 2019 Share February 19, 2019 Just came here to mention the cosmetic line too. Gosh I am younger than EJ and find this packaging and line to be too young and cheap-looking for me. So maybe it's geared toward well-to-do teens who can afford more than Maybelline but - DSL lipgloss?? Not to sound like a pearl-clutching old lady but is this something you'd want your teenage daughter to buy? I don't mind Too Faced as a brand - that Better Than Sex mascara really is great! - but this EJ line is just a big no. It's cheap-looking despite the dollar sign on the powder highlighter. 9 Link to comment

When you compare Erika to other Real Housewives who are very into sex, like Kandi, Sonja, Luann, Vicki, and even Brandi, Erika just comes off as so much less comfortable with sex and very inauthentic. All of these other women have a performative aspect to their sexuality too just because it's playing out on tv, but it feels more real and lived in. For example, we've seen many instances of Sonja grossly pawing on every dude in her orbit. Perhaps the difference between a Sonja and Erika is that when we see Sonja being sexual, she's being sexual with a man that she's interested in. The real issue is that Erika's scenes with Tom aka "The Boss" seem weirdly perfunctory and business like. Do those two have any affection for each other? And then when we do see Erika being "sexy", "flirty", or "sexual" it is literally a performance. Mikey is there getting her kitted up in Erika Jayne drag or she's writhing around on the floor in a bodysuit and thigh-high boots in an Erika Jayne performance. She's not being sexy for herself. She's not being sexy for her partner. She's being sexy for an unseen audience so it just seems fake and uncomfortable. 19 Link to comment

MatildaMoody February 21, 2019 Share February 21, 2019 This is hilarious. I called Erika out as not being sexual or even seeming to enjoy sex a year or so ago and got all kinds of flack for it. I remember specifically someone suggesting that Erika was most likely cheating on Tom, and the notion was ridiculous to me because I found it doubtful that she was having sex with ANYONE. She is like many friends I had when I was in my 20's. They liked appearing sexy. They liked people thinking they were sexy, but they never actually wanted to have sex. 2 21 Link to comment

Jel March 20, 2019 Share March 20, 2019 I think Erika is a beautiful woman, and I kinda love that she doesn't keep herself so Hollywood stick thin -- she's juicy (as Schwartz said about Katie). I also have to say this about her: while I may question the purity of her motives, she has been pretty sweet to the other, non LVP ladies, with the sexy/golf coaching, the many supportive and encouraging compliments etc. In a lot of ways, she seems like a girls' girl, and I like that about her. 4 Link to comment
