Shannon Beador: Magic Crystals and Nine Lemons

[Pi237]

Johnny J, keep digging that hole!   Someone mentioned Judge Judy,and I keep thinking about how she always basically said-you were in a relationship without the benefit of marriage, you get nothing back!   How he managed to have a drunk girlfriend hit him, almost run over his daughter, then, drunk drive into a house with her dog in the car, get out of soft rehab and Continue to drink On Camera and He Still ended up looking like the bad guy is a true stroke of genius.  Maybe he should get an Orange After all!

[Stats Queen]

Wow, they just won’t go away. What a piece of crap

[snarts]

Ironically, Johnny J's recent actions are doing more to prove Shannon's version of him than showing what a swell guy he (and Alexis) are claiming him to be.

It said nothing about the terms of the settlement. Did they both ever sign a NDA? Did she cave and pay more than the $75k? 
I think JJ used Alexis to scare the crap out of Shannon (the we have videos of you) during this season to get a fatter settlement because he was unable to do so without consequences in the eyes of the law (not a lawyer here). She will whine about this forever. Time to send her a cheese casserole to go with it. 

He got $60,000 and no NDA agreement was signed.

Shannon made Variety’s 30 Most Powerful Women on Reality TV in 2024.

I see Shannon as more of a hot mess than a powerful woman.

I understand. I think Shannon definitely needs help, but I was still impressed by her strength this season. I don’t know if I would have been able to handle everything John and Alexis did and have to react on camera. It sounds like torture. 

[Keywestclubkid]

I bet Shannon is glad that Califorina doesnt release video or pictures of DD arrest after Karens got slung all over the internet 

 

im gonna say it IF they had been the public perception would have been 100% different

[JustbeingReal]

Looks like Alexis and John are still very much together in the new year. Shannon posted with her daughters and dog. She should have been grateful for them. She has a lot of love and support. Hopefully she leaves the show and enjoys her life. There's nothing really for her to be sad over she has everything. I'm so happy for Alexis. I hope her and John have many more happy,fun,intimate years together. Shannon needs therapy. She is the problem in her life. Everyone around her gives her so much love and support.

Would you leave a job that paid more than $500k/year for part-time work? 

It cracks me up when people suggest that someone would voluntarily walk away. Shannon is nearly 60 years old. She has no other revenue streams. If she left the show, she'd end up doing the D list shows for appearance fees (like Alexis did & will continue to do) 

Besides, why would she leave now? She won. Bye Alexis. Bye Johnny J. Hope to see you never.

Even Tamra and Heather took her side in the end.  

I also hope that Johnny Jan and Alexis have many, many years together, but I might be slightly more malicious about it, lol.

[JustbeingReal]

She's a fan favorite of course they would take her side. Tamra desperately wants to stay on the show. I'm not going to hate Alexis because Shannon doesn't like her. I think Alexis was on the show first. 

[Mindthinkr]

I’m going to withhold my opinion until I see just what production is going to do with Shannon’s next season. Will she get a villain or good woman edit? They may coerce her into some shenanigans while telling her “But  hey, we kept you on the show”.

I guess I'm confused as to why you think Shannon should leave the show.  She's a fan favorite, as you say, and Alexis has been fired.

I don't think anyone hates Alexis because Shannon does.  I hate* her because she acted like an asshole for no reason all season long and then cried she was the victim.  I hate* her for her behavior, not because of Shannon.

*I don't hate Alexis, and certainly wish her no ill-will in real life.  I'm definitely grateful she and her man are off my tv again, and I do hope that stays true, regardless of what Shannon does.

I'm not really a fan of Shannon's. Everyone in her life coddles her. She's never happy and usually always whining about something. She gets away with things the other women don't. I think all of the women on the show are guilty of being A-holes.

i cant stand Shannon .. i think this show and by extension the fans are enabling her and her bad behavior with drinking .. I think she will never get better until she hits rock bottom and thats just not gonna happen with the fans going oh your fine you hit a house almost ran over someone but lets coddle you .. I just cant

[Pi237]

Shannon is a hypocritical mess in denial, but she always ends up with even worse women attacking her. So, I end up liking her more by comparison. It might’ve been a very different season if Tamra & Alexis didn’t go so hard at her. They made her look like the victim.  It’ll be interesting to see how it goes next season. Probably the RHOBeverly Hills Ericka treatment-act like it never happened.

[JustbeingReal]

I feel like they've all been attacked and ganged up on at least at one time on the show. There's usually someone in the hot seat every season. Katie was getting worst treatment to me. At least people were trying to comfort Shannon. Everyone has who they like on the show. I just don't care for Shannon.

Now that the amigas have stopped pretending to feud, I'm guessing they'll team up to turn on Emily and Gina.

[Sweet-tea]

I don't like John but I can believe Shannon was drunk and enraged. I've seen that behavior from her on the show several times. She can be very volatile and angry, especially when intoxicated.

It bothers me how she's played the victim and all the women have circled around her. John isn't my favorite either, but I don't think it's all his fault. Shannon is probably very hard to be in a relationship with. 

[Ms.Lulu]

All housewives are thirsty and shameless, but OC housewives seem a bit more of both than those on other series. Other than Heather, they aren't fabulously rich and they don't seem happy.

If you don't mind giving up your dignity these series are an easy way to make a great salary and get adoration from fans.

Choices.
