Good god what the hell has crawled up Erika’s ass for this reunion. Deflate that attitude seriously. And this is coming from someone who normally loves Erika but Jesus Christ 

I'm totally with you.   I normally love me some Ericka but she was positively insufferable. And Dorit is the LAST person you want to align yourself with.  Dorit is the definition of narcissist.  It's kind of hilarious how all of her "issues" with Teddi are the exact things she's guilty of doing to Teddi all season long.  I was cheering when Teddi called her out on gaslighting (which I'm sure Dorit doesn't even know the definition of.)  Dorit is a champion gaslighter.  Everything Teddi said was completely accurate.  I was actually getting really upset when the other women did sort of a mini pile on of her towards the end.  I fail to understand why they continually stick up for Dorit, who is horrible.

And they were using plastic utensils. The reunion budget couldn't spring for silverware? What would high and mighty Dorit have to say about that? 

She couldn't even be bothered to eat the food.... claimed that she was told they only had 30 min to eat lunch, which somehow isn't enough time to eat lunch when it's provided for you and you have no where else to go.

[Juliegirlj]

With all of Erika’s sexual posturing, ( DSL, blowup doll appearance, vampy clothing etc) I bet she is actually not very interested in sex in her life. If she were truly getting some good sex and loving in her life she wouldn’t need to play act it so much. Tom is old as dirt, and they may feel affection for each other but there is no attraction or spark between them- only polite awkwardness. As for Erika having a man on the side- she appeals mostly to gay men. 

[Juliegirlj]

Apparently Erika is doing two more episodes with Eileen on Young and Restless. I’m surprised she wasn’t bragging about it on the reunion. There is also a rumor that she is quitting RHOBH. One can only hope....

My opinion on Rinna's look:  If the Harry gay rumors are true, then everything about Rinna's look feeds into that:  Her short, boyish hairstyle, her straight-up skinny teenage boy body, her plumped up lips (which look like another part of anatomy), and her obsession with blow jobs (from her book).

If he's not gay, then I have no other explanation for her look, and I would beg her to seek a new hairstyle (not that stupid wig) and smaller lips.

Because straight guy's can't like thinner women? Or women with short hair? 

Or maybe, ya know, Rinna dresses/styles herself how SHE likes? And it's not about a man at all. 

 

(The lips I got no explanation for.)

One thing I have noticed (and I include myself in this)....when the Housewives are fighting a lot we get more - 'I like seeing them get along and I am here for the house porn and can't stand all the drama etc......' then when we get a dull season we want Lisa R to 'bring it' next season, calling Teddi 'boring', wishing for Camille to come back.....

We are a tough crowd :)

I was ok with Rinna being on the side line this season. It's refreshing.

She's been going after someone since she's been cast and it was nice to see her take a break. It was interesting to see the dynamic between the others with her not being in the center of it. Some of her sideline & talking head quips were hilarious.

She's still up inside Erica's ass... must be cozy for hibernating. She'll wake up next season hopefully a bit wiser. 

[Chit Chat]

I was sitting in a meeting this morning listening to a consultant talk about the different ways in which people react to criticism.  Something she said made me think of Dorit.  Sometimes when a person is insecure or has low self-esteem, criticism can seem especially hard to take.  The person tends to deflect the criticism so they don't have to receive the criticism. I immediately thought of Dorit and how she has to explain everything, or turn the criticism back on the other person. 

My meeting was so boring that I was thinking about this crazy show.  When the consultant asked if we had anything to add to her words of wisdom, for a moment I thought I was chatting with all of you and almost starting talking about this show!  Reality kicked in and I was back to my humdrum meeting.  Sigh.

According to Tamara Tattles, Andy confirmed on WWHL last night, that Erika did have a bad migraine at the reunion.

OH mannnn! Her last scene was filmed in front of the sex dumpster. 

[Juliegirlj]

Erika needs a health spa getaway. First she complained of heavy bleeding and cramps, then swollen glands and sickness, now a migraine. Yokum’s Razor would indicate that the simplest explanation is the answer: she is an unlikeable bitch....

For the heavy bleeding and cramps, I immediately thought "beginning menopause."  Migraines?  Aren't they a specific type of headache for which people are diagnosed, and there are some specific medicines to treat?  Not saying she didn't have a headache, but I don't recall her talking about migraines.  I had a roommate who had migraines, she needed to be in a dark room when she had one.  Can't imagine sitting under TV lights.

If the "blind item" is about her and hubby splitting, you can be sure she won't be coming back. There's no way she will put herself in a position to air out that dirty laundry.

It was boring.  I was looking forward to the second part only because I expected them to change out of their flashy stupid uncomfortable outfits into some other even more stupid and uncomfortable outfits.

The clothes and hairstyles and coloured contacts should be changed up for each segment.  Otherwise what is there to watch for?  

What if they had to draw names at the break and had to switch outfits. LVP or any of them in Erica’s outfit... that would have been entertaining

Your Welcome!

 If this is true, it explains a lot of her behavior this last season. She has been less EG and EJ most, if not all, of the time yet when she first joined, she was insistent that her EJ character was only her stage persona and not to be confused with EG, Tom's wife. If she and Tom are really done, then she needs to sell her EJ persona to keep the money/semi fame rolling in because she won't have his deep pockets funding her lifestyle for much longer. 

[ivygirl]

If this stuff is true—and who knows—we might have a “Whatever Happened to Erika Jayne” story on our hands, with some Sexy-J Sonja Formerly Known as Morgan thrown in, on our hands. 

Barring divine intervention, I don’t see Erika changing her attitude, even if she loses her money and status. She was working as a waitress in a cocktail bar when he met her... he picked her out, he shook her up and turned her around. Turned her into someone new. How soon she forgot and got used to the Moschino T-shirt dresses and Gucci track suits. 

Yeah, the stank attitude displayed on the reunion (and throughout the season) isn’t going anywhere. Which is too bad, as it seemed like she was softening at the beginning of the season.

Ah....  The Human League. 

You called it and it fits Erica like latex.

[LIMOM]

Did not watch the second part of the reunion(first part was just too boring), but it is my opinion that something was wrong with E, besides being a bitch, that is.

At the beginning of the show when A complimented everyone and small chatted, Erika indicated that her pony tail was tear dropped. She says something like “she is tear dropped”.

I thought it was weird that she would refer to her pony tail as a “she”and not an “it”.

I think that she was talking about herself, imho.

There have been times when I've wondered what her husband's colleagues and their wives think of EJ.   I'm assuming it's a respectable law firm....

Yes, my  mother had migraines for years and she needed a dark room too.   I guess there are varying degrees of severity, but they pretty much put my mother out when she had them.  I also had a colleague who suffered from them and she would have to leave meetings when they came on.

[Juliegirlj]

Some people mistakenly call a bad headache a migraine. I think it’s doubtful Erika had a real migraine -getting glammed up and being under all those lights would be next to impossible with a true migraine. She might want to stop pulling her hair back so damn tight though- it gives me a headache just looking at her hair.

The pain is real!  

Too tight ponytails really pile on the pain once you've taken out the holder.  My roots are tingling just thinking about it.

[ivygirl]

I get horrible (doctor diagnosed) migraines and there are times that I get them and HAVE to do something (go to work, fulfill some other obligation, etc.). I’m at the point where I can fake it, but I’m miserable inside and definitely not myself. So I can buy that Erika had a migraine and it “leaked out” in her attitude. Why she chose to wear her hair like that, though... I’m with you all... that would KILL me. She could’ve worn it down.

Did she have a migraine the entire season because she has the same stank attitude almost all season long, not just at the reunion. LOL

Erika doesn't appear to have any friends, just paid aquaintenses.

She may very well enter "it rubs the lotion on its skin" territory.

[Gam2]

I had vascular migraines (diagnosed by the Chief of Neurology at Vanderbilt Hospital because it was thought that I had a brain lesion) in my 20’s and early 30’s. This was before the new drugs that seem to be effective. Typically, it was about 3 days of vomiting, debilitating pain and the need to be in total darkness. I had two small children then and my mom would have to come take care of them. I’ve often heard people say that they have migraines and perhaps they do. Maybe I just had an extreme version of them. I do think people say that when they have a regular headache or just want some attention.

Someone who has a whole room full of people to put her together should be able to find a doctor who will come to the dressing room and give her a shot. She’s just a big ol’ bitch, she always is at reunions because it’s not alllll about her allllll the time. And I suffered thru migraines thru peri-menopause and it’s miserable. But I also didn’t look like her when they were happening, I literally couldn’t walk sometimes, especially when I got one with the flashing lights. Boo Hoo.

Neither Rinna or Erika should ever be confused with Miss Manners or Emily Post so their opinions on appropriateness are  irrelevant.

Considering what Dorit said to Camille in front of her new fiancé "shut up bitch" was mild.   I would have told her to STFU.

Two wrongs don't a right make.  When you tell someone to STFU which Camille did with the gift-why would you expect them to talk?  That is just insanity on the part of the others and further validation much like Rinna in previous years there would not have been a show without Dorit running her mouth.

On 5/2/2018 at 5:12 PM, WireWrap said:

 

 

I don't think anyone is telling Dorit she needs to shut up, they are trying to get her to slow down and allow others to speak as well. She talks over them on a regular basis, heck, she even apologized to Rinna for not "hearing" her in Vegas.

First off none of them want to say anything because they are boring and don't want it to show.  You have Kyle that will prattle on about her own nonsense and take calls when filming with someone.  LVP finally said something to Rinna about being so demure.  Perhaps they should stop writing, saying and giving interviews saying they want Dorit to shut up.  LVP said it to her and Dorit repeated it.  So when she apologizes-which requires talking and states what she did wrong they continue to tell her to be quiet.  Dorit talks too much and when she stops she should not be beaten down for it-it is inconsistent.  Like telling a dog to stay off the furniture and then asking the dog to come up on the couch and cuddle.  Whoever it is, speaking should not be predicated on whether or not you agree with what they have to say.  

LVP and Dorit are the only ones trying to keep the show rolling.  LVP never gets enough credit for trying to show case the others.  I am beginning to miss Rinna and Kim at least they brought it.

I still think Rinna owed a huge apology for last year's Reunion.  She was unconscionable to PK and Dorit.  Erika wasn't much better but she has a way of putting fear in people.  I think that is why Rinna didn't crack  when Teddi delivered the three month old news about Dorit and PK bashing her.  I don't necessarily like how Rinna and Erika treat LVP but at some point I think they will crossover and start having fun again.

Again, I don't think Lisa meant for Dorit to "shut up", it was about ignoring her/others when they are trying to talk. Dorit steam rolls over others in a conversation, something she admitted to doing but hasn't been able to correct. 

As long as Erika is on the show, Rinna will never have fun/relax with Lisa again, even if Erika does. I wonder who Rinna will glom onto next season if Erika leaves?

I don't know. If someone I got along with got drunk then spoke to me like Dorit did, I would be upset/hurt but then when she apologized (which Dorit did) I would let it go. I would file it under that she (Dorit) is an inappropriate drunk that says crass things. I might tease her about it but I wouldn't make a federal case out of it like Camille has.

I don't remember how Camille and Dorit were getting along when Dorit went off the reservation.    Whatever their relationship was, I'm guessing they weren't close.   I could cut a good friend some slack but not an acquaintance.

Wire-what do the others want to say?  Teddi and her wooden husband never say anything in a group.  Camille just wants to make sex jokes then acts so offended over the strap on comments.  That conversation could have been avoided had Mauricio not have asked a 50 year old woman, who used surrogates, if she planned on having more children.  Reasons why couples should not discuss decisions to have more children in a group setting.  

I do think had LVP not done the cut off her head she and Erika were close to being friends.  I blame Kyle for having to be the perpetual victim and act as if she slays all of LVP's dragons.  There were no dragons or unicorns.  I am on an island as I can see why Erika is bored and frustrated with the show.  Kyle asking for apologies and little nobody and her accountability does not a good show make.  LVP I think just became exhausted over no form and function.  I thought the limo ride with Erika and LVP might have loosened things up but all the showed was LVP and Rinna ruminating.  

Erika has shown she can get over stuff and I do believe Erika and LVP have more in common than the show allows them to explore.
