Ugh did you notice Rinna signal to Eileen when it was time to back her over Kyle's lips joke? Their planned points are such lame reaches. 

The lip comment from Kyle was a season highlight, for cripes sake LR used them in her tagline.  The fact that the soap sisters decided to go all 'tsk tsk how shameful' over it was lame central.

LVP seemed very tired of it all this season.  

I was glad she said she would give someone else the crown, because it seems like she and, much moreso, Ken have slowed down and, with respect, aged, considerably in the past year.  Ken hasn't been on the show much, which is unusual, and when he has been on I thought he was sort of frail-looking.

I think the VDP-Todds have now gotten Max successfully launched and they are on to a new chapter, thinking about their legacy and LVP is now better suited to that "Housewife Emeritus" status she has on VPR.

I hope LVP stays. She brings some good house porn, extravagant gifts (ponies! $25k watches!), lovely parties and events at her home and restaurants, an authentic British accent...

Being an Emmy award winning soap actress ranks much more higher than that of a washed up, high maintenance neurotic child actor, with addiction problems who goes from rehab to rehab, who makes headlines for getting arrested for shoplifting at Target.

But how come she doesn't have a picture on a bubblegum card? ;p

Mauricio's company didn't fall apart nor did Mauricio spend 4 or 5 years on the bankruptcy carousel located at the Shady and Sketchy Fairgrounds...

There are actresses who have won Oscars - but have not been able to maintain a 30+ yr career as a Lead Actress.   And some eventually turn to TV.

Eileen is likely at a point in her career where she can pick and choose what she wants to do on Daytime - and that is very rare for an actress at her age. 

Yes, like that odd role in an sci/fi? movie we were treated to, where LVP & Kyle were snark facing on camera (who else went to that, I can't remember...) after seeing the film...It seemed really chintzy...

PK addressed how he got his wealth at the reunion. He said he used to be in real estate and used to be much more wealthy than he is now which is certainly a possibility. Mauricio is also very wealthy and in real estate so I guess it's just a matter of time before rumors about him selling dope start floating around too.

 

Oh, there is tons of speculation about PK's "wealth."  He declared bankruptcy in the UK in 2012 after a series of bad investments. The US bank branch went after him and a US judge actually denied it saying that he didn't live like a bankrupt person. There is a whole bunch of questionable money/worth with that couple. 

[AndySmith]

He also left the UK for the US at the same time his company in the UK imploded (or maybe the year after)...

Which I think is why Barclays also went after him in the US in addition to the UK. 

It is similar to why Caroline (Ladies of London) left the UK for Dubai. Her husband folded assets into his company and then went to Dubai to evade financial obligations...

[AndySmith]

I didn't know that about Caroline...interesting.

Just now, HalbornScorpio said:

That may be true as well. I just don't care enough to get on google and digging around for dirt on PK's financial background, lol! It's not that serious for me.

I didn't google or go digging around for dirt. It has been covered on this board and most of the major bloggers (TT, RT, and others) have covered it. 

I always find it humorous when people on a message board say that they are above something which is basically the whole purpose of the board.  You are here discussing these people.  You are passionately defending the people that you support and go after the ones that you don't like.  I find it humorous that you say it isn't that serious for you and you don't care.  You obviously care or else you wouldn't be on this board.

None of it is confirmed.  She has denied but you can also put 2 and 2 together when you look into what her husband's career is.

I agree - but until Miss "I Have a Great Family and a Beautiful Life" can just decide that since she has a great family and a beautiful life, and Kim is a pathetic creature who can't take responsibility for her actions, she will let it go (and then do so!), I will continue to dislike her.  Constantly trying to raise the asshole stakes does not win her any points in my book!

When Andy pointed out that Erika & Rinna were wearing the same shoes, they both laughed, then Erika gave a sideways "that's ok", like Andy bringing it up was some sort of insult to Erika.  When Rinna was showing her bag of pills, Erika said "mine is way more interesting".  Andy didn't bite, and didn't ask what was in hers.  Erika just seems to think the entire group is sooooooooooo beneath her, and she and her glam squad knows she's the best.   I'm sure after the reunion wrapped, her glam squad went on and on about how fierce she is, she's the best, etc.  And then Mikey talked her into her latest nude shot.   There is nothing personable about Erika.  She's an act, always in costume, always some character.  There is no real Erika.

Which is why everyone naturally assumes she is her stage persona yet she gets pissed that people can't separate the two.  Well gee, give us a personality that doesn't match it and we will!

Her legs weren't open, from what we saw in the videos. Her knees were closed and she had a napkin on as well as much as she could.

But obviously there was more to that evening than one shot of the knees closed.  Someone wearing a mini dress with no uw and mad she was 'seen'.  It's beyond ridiculous.  She has no problem with nudity.  This was all about not liking Dorit imo.

[AndySmith]

So she went commando to piss of Dorit? If anything, Dorit was the one who came up with the shitty mean girl gift, so it seems Dorit was the one who didn't like Ericka.

Please. Lead actress? She is part of an ensemble cast. One of several main characters. She isn't out having to audition for roles that would flex her acting chops and be a challenge.  She's been in her nice little niche doing the same character for decades. So has the actor playing Big Bird. 

All of her Emmy nominations through out the years were for Best Actress.

She's played different characters on The Young and Restless, Days of Our Lives, The Bold and Beautiful.

Well, Kyle and LVP failed to launch any kind of legit acting career as adults.  BRAVO had Rinna and Eileen all over the network promoting The Reunion and the new movie Unforgettable.  And Eileen was just named one of People Magazine's Most Beautiful People.

I'm sorry I stand corrected I was only checking through google, but went back and watched the footage, it is "I don't have any!" as she reaches down to protect herself from LVP.  Which to be fair implies the same thing.  I'd like to leave the witness stand now lol.

All this back and forth on the actual wording kind of baffles me.  Words are important, but there is more to communication than just words.  There is tone and inflection, hand gestures, and body language.  When the comment was made, it was clear to me that she was saying she was going commando.  It seems many other people got that same message and by Ericka's own account, that was the message.  It's not like she said that and we all got this idea that she was without undergarments, but she actually was wearing them.

You should pull up all of their wikipedia pages. Everyone of them with the exception of Kim has a picture of them of recent years. All of theirs with the exception of Kim's says actress in the byline. Kim's is a picture of her when she she 5 or 6 and in her byline it says FORMER child actress. Even wiki doesn't consider her an actress anymore (I guess we know what they think of Sharknado 3)

Okay so it's like we are on the show.

She didn't "announce" verbally about her uncovered beaver but she stood in the middle of the group and gestured toward her bare beave and EXPLAINED that she didn't have any in response to someone asking her for some panties for Kyle.

You know, what I find crazy is that we all saw the scene. We all know what happened. We all know she was entering the group saying hi so she was of course the focus in that moment. She's standing making her the visual focal point. The exchange about panties happened and her response is made FOR SHOCK VALUE I mean come on nitpickers. Bottom line ATTENTION DRAWN.

Do I think she was inviting people to ogle her crotch honestly who the hell knows what goes on in her mind. I got a girlfriend, well actually someone I know, who loves nothing more than to steal men's attention in a group full of men, women, even couples by not only wearing revealing clothing but also making "humorous" and leading comments that always draws attention to her lady bits, her body. Or she's telling suggestive stories about that time her ex got her some beautiful lingerie for Valentines only for the lacy bottoms not to fit cause of her big ass.

But in Erika's case? I do believe she has that thirst within her to be that woman in the group. The desirable one. The walking fantasy. So I think that's the bug up a lot of people's buts. You attempt to steal inappropriate attention from the other women in the group in order to quench that inner thirst and be the naughty girl in the room in the minds of the men, just for a moment and it backfires.  She gambled and lost. Which is understandable cause what I described isn't the most overt or that serious and done quick enough it comes off as rather harmless. I for one get annoyed with women who are this thirsty and who put their need to be found sensual ahead of respecting the other relationships in the room but Erika's little moment was quick. What made it go south (pun intended) was PK speaking on the matter.

Obviously I don't believe Erika was deliberately flashing herself but I do believe she does like to draw attention inappropriately and that she likes this while off stage too contrary to what she desperately tries to explain to everyone around her. Bitch admit you like male attention as much as the next bitch on or off the stage. Just cause ya married doesn't mean it doesn't feel good to be appreciated in that way. She won't admit that even as the wife of a prestigious attorney, it feels good to be seen as that raunchy sex kitten. We already know she enjoys it cause that's what she's craving when she's rolling around popping that puss right out of her leotard. She just thinks that people are supposed to believe she flips that switch off completely when she's not on stage and I don't believe that to be completely true. The denial also gets on my nerves. Own it. It became in incident because you wanted to draw attention to yourself with that COMMENT. Not the no panties part. Not the unfortunate difficulties while sitting down but the COMMENT that was meant to put a little naughty out there into the air for the men to mull over.

Sorry, I don't think there's anything wrong with calling it what it was. She misjudged her audience and she dropped the ball when it came to managing her outfit for the evening. An outfit most women would be mentally prepared to maneuver. We all know about high maintenance outfits and the work and monitoring that needs to be put into wearing certain things.  "Fuck, I wanna wear this dress so bad but my boob pops out from the side and it's such a chore to make sure that sucker isn't peeking out randomly. Fuck it guess I'll just keep adjusting all night..." You have to be committed to policing your clothing or you choose something else to wear.  So not only did Erika seize the opportunity to share the status of her bare crotch, which she didn't have to jump at, but then she failed to monitor her attire that is obviously prone to flashing.

Fail and fail.

Now she mad.

Nah, Eileen has never claimed to be Meryl Streep or Katharine Hepburn.  Whereas I can see delusional and has-been Kim Richards thinking that Sharknado 3 was going to revive her failed career.  Maybe that's why she shoplifted at Target - she needed a picture to send to casting agents.  Granted it was a mugshot, but stupid, drunk Kim........

Sharknado was nothing but a quick buck for Kim. I don't think she saw it for anything more than what it was, a gig between martinis to buy the next fifth.

Ha..I looked at her wiki page and I saw listed Stars In Danger. I thought it was a made for TV movie but it turns out to be the name of the Reality TV "Diving" show she did with Kyle. Maybe she used that shot and sent it to David Hasselhoff to see if they could revive Baywatch

Hi, Just observing, we never know who you are quoting or if you are quoting the whole post  a or just a part one as some, me included, sometimes do. There is never a name unless it's someone you agree with. We can never go back to the original quote to read it for ourselves because there is no name, no back arrow.

I never commented on production as it relates to LVP so I'm not sure what you are referring to. I was talking about fan reaction with regard to LVP. If she supports someone they are usually cut a lot of slack for horrible behavior, like, I don't know, outing a surrogacy. Tons of reasons will be given, explanations pulled out of asses, etc., including some proclaiming that perhaps they only behaved in the horrendous manner because they were told to by production. Because if LVP supports them they cannot be the kind of person that would do the horrendous thing. They are cut a ton of slack. If she doesn't like them,  they are the most horrendous people on the planet and no one ever suggests that they are doing what they are doing because production told them to. Just my opinion, but you can almost go down the list, HW by HW and see the trend for yourself. 

With respect, MCM, I think what you are not really getting here is that while some Lisa fans share Lisa's opinion, they arrive at that opinion independently.  That's probably why many of us like her -- we're naturally like-minded on some issues.  They might side with her, think she makes a good point or two, laugh along with her, but no one needs a HW to tell them what to think. Imo, this LVP supporter you refer to is a straw man.

I get that the minority opinion in the forums gets to clutch the pearls, fine, been there myself, but let's not pretend this knife doesn't cut both ways: Viewers' dislike of LVP colors their opinions as well.  Case in point: If it was Lisa who wasn't wearing the underwear, acknowledged no role in pantygate, had the freakout, would the non-LVP fans be taking up for Lisa Vanderpump as vehemently as they have Erika?  Would they be as hard on Dorit?

I don't want to put words in your mouth, but it seems like you're singling out the LVP fan as a special category of thinker who is so weak minded that s/he couldn't possibly do anything but auto-side with Lisa Vanderpump on everything, when the truth is that people generally take up for the person with whom they most agree-- they agree with that person mostly because they share similar opinions.  That's not even my opinion -- that's in the literature.  And that's not an LVP fan thing -- that's a people thing.

Still one of my favorite posters though, MCM, even if I think you are way wrong about this.
