It's her actual MOTHER paying the rest of her rent.  You're correct.  She has admitted that in the past.  This was just the first time she's admitted that Randall also pays part of her rent. 

I think she is referring to herself, she calls herself mamma.

I don't think Katie had enough cross necklaces on. (On a less shallow note, her realizing her accident made her depressed/gave her PTSD made me briefly look back at a traumatic experience I had a few years ago where I was in the ICU for a week and how I have always brushed it the whole thing off without thinking about the long-term mental effects it has had on me, more than I've given it credit for).

Lisa's hair looked super parched and thirsty. Someone give her a deep conditioning mask. 

And I mentioned this in Reunion Pt. 1, but Brittany's dress gets more and more ugly the more I have to look at it. Everything about it is all wrong for Brittany. And still hating Lala's brown dress clashing with her fake tan.

 

The creeper Jeremy stuff annoyed me again, how they just brushed past it and gave Stassi/Kristen a hard time about it again. I don't care if Billie's feelings were hurt (why'd she take it so personally anyway that they were telling her this dude was creepy? It had nothing to do with her, it was about having that in mind when she went on the date with him. I'd want to know about that beforehand! She just feels so extra and thirsty. Simmer down). There are a couple guys from my past who I found to be creepy because of the physical boundaries they attempted to cross with me, and the way they behaved around me and other women in general, but because we had mutual friends, it made *me* feel like I was the mean one for saying how uncomfortable I felt around and about them. It's frustrating and awkward, at best. 

I agree about Billie being thristy, and I feel like she is almost untouchable because she is the only trans on the show. 

 

I think the fact that TOM got away with making out with another girl while married is sad.  Maybe Katie is zen enough and gets her confidence back to leave him if he does it again.  ( I dont think so, but eventually she might tire of him. OR stop caring for him like she did before)

I don't know about that, but she actually refers to her own mother as "momma," as well.  She has said on numerous occasions that her family is well-to-do and pays her bills.

I'm no Lala fan, but she intrigues me, so I tend to read all of the articles about her.

Omg I want to like Lala but she is just too much for me, she takes herself sooooo seriously and her delivery is always just so...awkward and cheesy. 

Despite my feelings towards Lala, I listened to her interview on Heather MacDonald's podcast a couple months back and she was surprisingly likeable.  My impression is that she's a normal person IRL, but is a big fake for the show.

I need to listen to that (omg my podcast hoarding has reached epic proportions...)

But I remember when my BFF Stassi (in my head) said that she didn't trust Lala b/c she leads with her sexuality.  And I felt/feel that way about Lala as well, because I do not at all trust girls like that at all!  (part of it is that I (we'll say) *tried* to act like that when I was a little (late teens) Teapot, it was *never* a good look, I'm not proud of it & I don't tolerate people who haven't outgrown it...maybe that's not fair)

But with Lala, it looks like all of the girls have really warmed to her, so there must be some depth that's not coming across on camera.  Which I can see, actually, because I'm not even that fond of my BFF Stassi on the show, but I flove her on social media & her podcast.

I noticed that, too, and I think it's because she finally opened her life up to them.  Andy asked them who had met Randall and I think all of them raised their hands.  She invites them to be a part of her life and I think that's what they were waiting for before they could trust her.

I think Tom should definitely stop drinking.  He should also stop kissing women who are not Katie.

But, FI Tom said he has a hard time saying, "No."  It's not his fault, I guess.

:/

Every time Schwartz says "I don't remember", he's lying.  Every Time.  I knew someone like that years ago and it was the most effing infuriating thing ever, because they never take responsibility and never own up to their own shit.  Too bad Katie's married to such a little spineless bitch.

 

I edited a couple of the videos from season 3 and took everything Jax-related out and it was such a better viewing.  Didn't miss anything by not having him there and it was less annoying.  Get rid of him, ffs.  Kristina Kelly seemed to be the only person on that show who never fell for Jax's bullshit.

I think he's lying, as well.  It's just too incredibly convenient. 

Also, I think if he really was blacking out that much, he would stop doing it because it would scare him. Instead, he rides bikes around Mexico in the middle of the night to other resorts.  I can't wait until the photos of him kissing someone that night surface and he "forgets."

It's not just a matter of blackout drinking.  Vail from Season 3 was saying how she read a quote which said "Blackouts are God's way of saying 'Don't worry about it'"  - yeah sure, don't worry about it until you test positive for STDs and pregnancy.  I may not be religious, but as if God would say something so effing irresponsible and daft!  What if Schwartz gets blackout pissed and does something he 'doesn't remember' and infects Katie???  Just awful.

Or does something that affects Tom Tom or LVP.

Which is why LVP still hasn't cashed their checks! They are not being very responsible small partners getting loaded on a regular basis and Tom Sw. having periodic blackouts! Even Katie has deflected the problem by saying "it's cute when it's me he's slobbering over!" I'm a little more than shocked to see this guy not just sipping out of a bottle at 2 am in the club, but "pouring" it down his throat guzzling! Even recording this with a camera would be uncomfortable, being a bud having to deal with this all too often should be even worse! Before next season, we'll see if this partnership really comes off! Maybe Lisa gives them the old "heave ho," but buys their liquor freezing machine so they won't be stuck with it! ;-(

You may very well be right, but she is not a good actress, her fakeness shows, you can tell the person she is on the show is not who she naturally is. 

I like people who are real, for better or worse. Stassi, Kristen and Katie have their flaws, but they’re real, they aren’t trying to be someone they’re not. They are who they are. 

Ariana and Schenna are also somewhat fake, IMO, but Lala is the worst, she comes across as the most unnatural. 

[HouseofBeck]

Billie bugs. I was interested in her at first, but by now, no. She took everything conventional, stereotypical, and fake, and lacquered it on.

Also I cannot stand the constant substitute of "vagina" for "vulva." Or are they really, truly, getting all up in there?! What kind of porn was she watching?? *grin* Lisa should have corrected her, but maybe she gave up.

Scheana's side comment about Lala's man getting her materialistic things is the definition of a bitter bitch. Scheana fawned all over Rob for all of his materialistic things like his home, and family name and cottage, etc. How is Lala comparing living in a fancy place that her boyfriend helps pay rent, driving ridiculously expensive cars that her boyfriend leases for her and buys her fancy things to James supposedly not paying rent for living on some man's couch? How is this even remotely the same thing? lol

So is Lala and James' friendship officially on the fritz? She's obviously angry with him for his comments about her man and he's not really featured on her IG (not sure how often he was previously). 

If I were Brittany, I wouldn't take too kindly to a 'friend' who admitted that they involved me in something, pretending to have my best interests at heart but really they were actually trying to hurt my partner through me. 

I'm guessing BIllie's presence at the reunion is testing the waters of introducing her full time next season. 

I get why Billie would be upset by Stassi's comments about Jeremy. It's no secret that dating can be very difficult for people in the trans community but also, quite dangerous for them as well. They're one of the minority groups that are often targeted because offenders know that less resources and attention is put toward looking for missing trans people and investigating their disappearances. To be asked out by someone you're interested in is exciting, but I can imagine that there's a bit of deflating and self-conscious aspect of having that excitement dashed by someone telling you that your date is creepy - as if being trans means that those 'creeps' are the only people who you can truly attract. I don't blame Stassi for being honest about her experience but maybe she'll take away that she can maybe adjust her delivery - I certainly don't think it's a bad idea to give someone a heads up if they're possible walking into a situation that they may end up uncomfortable with. 

Jax's #metoo comment had me laughing. 

It's because of the known danger that I would think Billie would have taken the intel as very good to know. But then she wouldn't have as much to say, I guess. Ugh.

I can't wait until they cover Lala's bottle bedtime routine. 

 

Good grief.

Yeah, the thing with Billie is I wanted to like her because of her story but she’s just a gossip and not very nice. Also the way she spoke about what people said about so and so, she would conveniently leave out bits and pieces of what they said to make it sound worse and make the situations bigger. I wish someone would have called her out on that.

Also since the show is just going to ignore what Jeremy has been accused of, I won’t talk about it either but he did make Stassi feel uncomfortable and he made a few other girls feel this way as well. Perhaps he was just drunk and therefore his social cues were out of it, all the same, he did make Stassi feel uncomfortable. There’s video evidence. We saw it. Stassi is allowed to have felt the way she felt and it’s annoying that everyone basically says she can’t and that she was made to act like she was in the wrong for it. Whatever. The show should have never made this a story in an episode of this is how it ended up.

Maybe Billie had enough interactions with him that she felt comfortable about being around him and that made it easier to take Stassi's experience as being singular to Stassi and not indicative of Jeremy's general character. That's the only thing that I can think of that makes sense to me that she would ignore the warnings of someone's experience and instead take more personal offense to what Stassi's comments did to her self-esteem.

Thank you!  99.999999 % of the time when people say 'vagina', they're actually referring to their vulva.  As someone who works in the medical field, this bugs the shit out of me.

 

Billie being a trans is the only interesting thing about her.  I couldn't care less if she's a woman who used to be a man, who decided to be a man again, then lived as a woman.  People are afraid to say anything or criticise her because no matter what they say, they'll get labelled as being transphobic.  WTF.  Maybe we just don't think she's a nice person or someone who's interesting enough to get to know as a person.  Yes, as a PERSON.  Do they think that only decent people decided to get gender reassignment surgery?  There weren't sociopathic dipshits who decided to undergo that operation?  What's sexuality or gender have to do with being a decent human being???

Her definition of being a feminist was pathetic. Letting you tits hang out when you feel like it. Really, LaLa? Sit down, girl. 

Seriously! I appreciate the feminists who truly fight for women, but I just can't with the feminists whose biggest issue is not being able to go topless. 

If Lala really cared about women, she would care about their comfort, and women like her who lead with sexuality to the point it makes other women uncomfortable, give me a break.
