Speaker 1: Welcome to Reality with the King. It's me Carlos Kings,
Speaker 1: the King of Reality TV and one of the most
Speaker 1: sought after executive producers in reality television with over ten
Speaker 1: years of production experience. Twice a week on Reality with
Speaker 1: the King, we'll sit down with my friends across the
Speaker 1: entertainment industry, recap our favorite reality shows and revisit unforgettable
Speaker 1: moments that we are still talking and tweeting about. All right,
Speaker 1: so let's get it to the latest episode.
Speaker 2: This was a great introduction. By the way, we missed
Speaker 2: your Claudia. Welcome back.
Speaker 1: I'm happy that you're here. Let's get write in to it.
Speaker 1: You were missed for sure. The fans went crazy when
Speaker 1: you weren't here last week, so we're happy that you're back.
Speaker 2: All right.
Speaker 1: So look, the episode of the Real Housewife of Atlanta
Speaker 1: started off with Smia doing some charity work. What I
Speaker 1: love about this scene is Shami and her daughter before
Speaker 1: the girls, Kelly and Brick got there.
Speaker 2: Samia house of the castle.
Speaker 1: So to see that garage lifted up and those massive ass.
Speaker 3: Boxes backed up to the heavens that they was, I
Speaker 3: love it.
Speaker 1: Mm hm, I I loved it so much and I
Speaker 1: love the fact that she said when she when she
Speaker 1: talks about her daughter living in privilege and how she
Speaker 1: really wants to be able to teach her that you
Speaker 1: are blessed and you have to pay it forward. I
Speaker 1: thought that was that was beautiful before we get to
Speaker 1: the killy and britt of it all. To me, this
Speaker 1: scene solidified the importance of Shmia being on the show,
Speaker 1: because not only does she bring a lot of wealth
Speaker 1: and access to it, but it's the humility as a
Speaker 1: mother of what she's teaching her daughter growing up in privilege.
Speaker 1: Because listen, I'm gonna say this to y'all. I'm a
Speaker 1: fan on TikTok of seeing black rich kids.
Speaker 4: I can watch all day.
Speaker 1: It puts a small on my face just discover Robert
Speaker 1: Smith's daughter. She's like in her early twenties and she's
Speaker 1: on TikTok living her best life.
Speaker 2: So that shit makes me happy. So I was happy
Speaker 2: to see that.
Speaker 5: I love seeing that. I love that part of seeing
Speaker 5: Shemia's storyline. I mean, let's keep it a buck, especially
Speaker 5: after this episode. Not everybody got the bread they say
Speaker 5: they have, okay, and it's nice to see Shemiah who
Speaker 5: but doesn't even talk about her bread softly, show us
Speaker 5: how she has it, and the fact that she you know,
Speaker 5: some people get a few dollars you can tell new
Speaker 5: money is usually arrogant and obnoxious, and Shemi is not.
Speaker 5: Like she married a very wealthy man and they've been
Speaker 5: together for ten years. And I love that she's instilling
Speaker 5: that into her daughter instead of being a little brat,
Speaker 5: you know, kind of she could easily be a spoiled
Speaker 5: brat and she's not. And I thought that's a really
Speaker 5: great lesson and I love, love love seeing that. I
Speaker 5: love seeing that for Shemi, Like that was a very
Speaker 5: important scene to me, especially you know, within a world
Speaker 5: of Instagram posturing, you know, to kind of like instill
Speaker 5: that early on because she didn't have to, because she
Speaker 5: really got happen to.
Speaker 3: I thoroughly enjoyed that scene. First of all, Shamiah was
Speaker 3: tailored up and then Gucci.
Speaker 4: Pants and shit.
Speaker 3: I don't know who her tailor is, but they had
Speaker 3: cut that shit on her. She was in that Gucci
Speaker 3: in that garage, that little beautiful black daughter of hers
Speaker 3: with her beautiful little braids, running around and just being
Speaker 3: a thriving child, well adjusted, articulated, articulating her little thoughts
Speaker 3: and reasoning like that on camera.
Speaker 4: We love shit like that.
Speaker 3: That's what makes us love the Real Housewives of Atlanta,
Speaker 3: And we do get attached to the children of these ladies.
Speaker 3: We love watching them grow up on TV, seeing them
Speaker 3: progress and watching them be rich black kids. It's just
Speaker 3: like when Barack Obama won the election. I couldn't wait
Speaker 3: to see them little girls running across that white house
Speaker 3: lawn and the little rothschild coats and wool two peet
Speaker 3: little hats and shit. I love seeing that. So I
Speaker 3: love this scene. Samia's garage was full of shit to
Speaker 3: give away, which was in a sharp contrast of what
Speaker 3: we saw from Britt when she came over with that
Speaker 3: quilted northern and I believe it was a box of
Speaker 3: sanitary nepkins as well, and so you.
Speaker 4: Know, it was a bit different. But I loved this
Speaker 4: scene and it was good to see.
Speaker 3: I also liked seeing Kelly and Shamiah and Britt having
Speaker 3: conversation over Shiya. I liked seeing her watch her mama
Speaker 3: and her mama's friends talk that sort of in the community.
Speaker 3: That's what teaches our little black girls how to be
Speaker 3: little black girls.
Speaker 4: And I love seeing her looking up listening intently to
Speaker 4: what they were saying.
Speaker 3: That was just good TV and that's why we love
Speaker 3: Shemiah being on this cast.
Speaker 1: So yes, no, I thought so too. So you brought
Speaker 1: up Kelly and Britt arriving. Brett arrived with some stuff,
Speaker 1: and she did bring up the event that was in
Speaker 1: last week's episode. Claudea, you weren't there for that one,
Speaker 1: so not sure you know what's been going on. But
Speaker 1: Brett had an event, Hey, Tisha, she had an event
Speaker 1: that went a at a country club I believe is
Speaker 1: where she said they live, and a lot of people
Speaker 1: were unable to eat. And there's been such fodder on
Speaker 1: social media about this. Britt in last night's episode brought
Speaker 1: it up again and just pretty much said that's not
Speaker 1: her standard when it comes to not feeding people, not
Speaker 1: having an event of her standard. And there's a lot
Speaker 1: of things happening on the blogs about what's been going
Speaker 1: on with Brid's situation. Have you guys been seeing this?
Speaker 5: I saw that bullshit all the way from Saint Martin. Okay,
Speaker 5: that was some bullshit. First of all, how do you
Speaker 5: have an event where just what seven eight people get
Speaker 5: food and everybody else is supposed to be peasants, And
Speaker 5: at first she did say that they weren't even supposed
Speaker 5: to be seated, that they're supposed to be standing around
Speaker 5: and like just kind of like just to give in
Speaker 5: ambiyonce and like use everybody that's there as unpaid extras,
Speaker 5: and like Brett, look, if you don't have it, you
Speaker 5: don't have you don't have to show it, you know
Speaker 5: what I'm saying. I remember when I was on the show, Yo,
Speaker 5: y'all show me putting together some Ikea furniture. It was
Speaker 5: when my real front show was being delivered in the
Speaker 5: moving truck. Was lay, y'all play me. But it's all right,
Speaker 5: you don't have to go in there. Everybody ain't rich.
Speaker 5: And I feel like on Instagram and on social media
Speaker 5: and on on reality shows, everyone feels this immense pressure
Speaker 5: to be wealthy when they're not. Meanwhile, you're breaking the bank,
Speaker 5: you're renting clothes. Ooh, there's so many other people I
Speaker 5: could put on blasts right now, especially from the other
Speaker 5: show we did it together, Carlos anyways, but like people lie,
Speaker 5: and it's like I feel that in one regard. It's
Speaker 5: like I understand the pressure like you have to like
Speaker 5: put this image, but in this case it backfired. It
Speaker 5: made her look super ridiculous. Obviously with the wardrobe. I
Speaker 5: know this is last week's episode. I mean, obviously you're
Speaker 5: not used to being at a country club like that.
Speaker 5: If you think that's the way you address to go
Speaker 5: on a golf course. They don't like you to wear
Speaker 5: heels because you dama made the course. You got to
Speaker 5: replacedvits like you like, that's golf etiquette. No one in
Speaker 5: their right mind when I go to the celebrity golf
Speaker 5: trendment said I'm invited to and you know, islands and
Speaker 5: stuff like that. Bermuda was my last one. There's no
Speaker 5: heels on the course. You have to wear a collared
Speaker 5: shirt and proper foot attire. I remember one time I
Speaker 5: tried it, like the shirt like Carlos has on. I
Speaker 5: remember I tried it one time with a tank top
Speaker 5: and they let me because I was a celebrity. But
Speaker 5: it was definitely very much against golf etiquette. That was
Speaker 5: so ridiculous. And that's someone that doesn't know what she
Speaker 5: was doing. And Kelly clocked it. She said, I don't
Speaker 5: see none of her neighbors seem to know who she is,
Speaker 5: Like they don't know, the members don't recognize her. Britt,
Speaker 5: I think you keep failing by trying to be something
Speaker 5: you're not. And we would like you more if you
Speaker 5: just kept it a buck about who you really were.
Speaker 5: If you can't afford to feed twenty people that don't
Speaker 5: try to feed, they don't have an event like that,
Speaker 5: just have it for the girls, because now you look dumb,
Speaker 5: and you got a lawsuit, Now you look crazy.
Speaker 2: What is this lawsuit that Britt has right now?
Speaker 4: I know because I don't really care about it.
Speaker 3: To me, like the whole digging into the lawsuit shit
Speaker 3: is like just extra. We saw enough on the show
Speaker 3: when we saw that there wasn't enough food to go around,
Speaker 3: So there's no more that we need to know to me, like,
Speaker 3: obviously she wasn't proactive or her team whoever was responsible
Speaker 3: for planning and organizing her event, they did not have
Speaker 3: a plan B in place. That should not have been
Speaker 3: a need for one. Either you have food or you don't.
Speaker 3: And once herself and whoever else was making decisions for
Speaker 3: her was made aware that there was an issue with
Speaker 3: the food, it's a very simple fix.
Speaker 4: You put the car down get it together.
Speaker 3: If they don't have the supplies there, you order from
Speaker 3: somewhere else, even if it's gotta be wings. You know
Speaker 3: what I'm saying. You just order it and get it
Speaker 3: to the people. Open that bar up, put a car
Speaker 3: down on that bar, open that bar up. Get everybody drunk,
Speaker 3: and make amends for the obvious oversight. The digging into
Speaker 3: these lawsuits and Fulton County and all this other shit.
Speaker 4: That's just a bit much for me personally.
Speaker 3: It's just me, So I didn't really invest too much
Speaker 3: time into looking at it.
Speaker 5: So you saying the lawsuit isn't worth a three two
Speaker 5: plai charman that Brit brought to the fundraiser. Listen, listen.
Speaker 5: I just can't with Britt this whole episode. Like every time,
Speaker 5: like I take my foot up a BRIT's neck for
Speaker 5: like an episode or two or whatever, she do something
Speaker 5: stupid like this, Like, first of all, these people in Grenada,
Speaker 5: Grenada need stuff, and you over here bring in like
Speaker 5: the bare minimum, like and here's the thing again, you
Speaker 5: don't if you don't have it, you don't have it.
Speaker 5: But what's obnoxious is showing up with the Hermes bag
Speaker 5: and bringing two rolls of toilet paper in some some
Speaker 5: tampons or some pads like that's like where and then oh, my,
Speaker 5: my team, she's always blame it on our team. Will
Speaker 5: you are clearly on a losing team. If the team
Speaker 5: can't deliver for you, go through that closet and bring
Speaker 5: some clothes that you don't wear anymore, like stuff that
Speaker 5: you want to already posted on Instagram. Like it's not
Speaker 5: that hard, you know. I just feel like she did
Speaker 5: again did herself with DIOS service by doing that, she
Speaker 5: looked ridiculous carrying how I look like bringing a Hermes
Speaker 5: bag and I'm bringing you twelve dollars worth of supplies.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, no, it is the case.
Speaker 1: And then you know, the party planner did release a
Speaker 1: statement pretty much saying that the event was not of
Speaker 1: her liking either due to some restrictions that she was under.
Speaker 1: So listen, it's one of those things where as reality producer,
Speaker 1: you follow the reality. Obviously this happened before the episode aired,
Speaker 1: but it is something that people are talking about when
Speaker 1: it comes to what Claudia is saying, which is when
Speaker 1: you get on reality television and there is this perception
Speaker 1: of living beyond your means, and that's why I always
Speaker 1: tell people, and I've said this every week on this month,
Speaker 1: and I live blah blah blah. You really just have
Speaker 1: to be yourself. And I promise you, if you go
Speaker 1: in being yourself, you will always, always, always win the audience.
Speaker 1: You mean I win one hundred percent of them, because
Speaker 1: no one does, but you will win the large majority
Speaker 1: of them because when you give people an excuse to
Speaker 1: talk about stuff like this, because everybody is talking about
Speaker 1: these things that have on earth. I do agree with
Speaker 1: the fact that, look, let's focus on the show. But
Speaker 1: the problem that's happening is so much is happening outside
Speaker 1: of the show that is carrying the season. And that's
Speaker 1: why this is the first season in a very long
Speaker 1: time or maybe ever where the fourth wall is constantly
Speaker 1: being broken. And we saw that with Porsche and Drew said, down, Porsche,
Speaker 1: don't do nor more.
Speaker 2: Sit down baby at this point.
Speaker 5: Don't do any more reality because you are not delivering
Speaker 5: this season. You're not and you're so cute. She's such
Speaker 5: a cute girl and she used to be. She's not
Speaker 5: giving like she's another one that's not like listen, Porsche,
Speaker 5: like you were the most anticipated return to reality TV
Speaker 5: people wanted to see you and hear your story. And
Speaker 5: I know you were kind of cut at the feet
Speaker 5: a little bit with Simon not letting you record in
Speaker 5: the house, but you still could have talked about things
Speaker 5: that we cared about, these fake beas with Drew, these
Speaker 5: bad sit downs where you're getting you know, Drew fucking clowns.
Speaker 5: She read you down. You looked you lost that one.
Speaker 5: And she used to be so much funnier in her
Speaker 5: green screens and she's not. It's giving grasping for straws,
Speaker 5: and I feel like there's like some sort of desperation,
Speaker 5: like I know I don't have it. I gotta try
Speaker 5: to give something. So it said she's just saying mean
Speaker 5: shit in her green screens instead of just like keeping
Speaker 5: in the buck. All right, all right, I was tripping.
Speaker 5: I know Drew Ane messing with my ex, you know,
Speaker 5: but I just I'm being yo. We would laugh more
Speaker 5: if you just admitted I was being a petty bitch,
Speaker 5: Like I would appreciate that more than just acting like
Speaker 5: it's a bigger deal than it's not when it's really not.
Speaker 5: Like it's just a lot of posturing this season.
Speaker 3: Yeah, one of my favorite things about Porsche ever since
Speaker 3: he's been on the show. Was her kind of in
Speaker 3: the moment, one hundred percent off the dome, quick witty retorts, comebacks,
Speaker 3: you know, funny things to say, like when her and
Speaker 3: Kenya before Kenya departed, when they were at that dinner
Speaker 3: at the Bank at the Vault, I think it was
Speaker 3: called or the Bank, whatever that restaurant was, and they
Speaker 3: were joking about the soulful menu in a funny way
Speaker 3: and Porscha's yeam bite.
Speaker 4: They was going back and forth. That was funny.
Speaker 3: I like that Porscha and I haven't seen that much
Speaker 3: of her that side of her personality this season. And
Speaker 3: when you know, again most of your earlier point, Carlos,
Speaker 3: when there's so much going on off the show, obviously,
Speaker 3: we know that Porscha is going through the shit she's
Speaker 3: going through with Simon, and to her credit, she's been
Speaker 3: as forthcoming about that as she can off camera in
Speaker 3: interviews on her YouTube channel. But when it comes to
Speaker 3: the show itself, it's a different presentation, and I think
Speaker 3: that that's where the disconnect is happening for me and
Speaker 3: a few other viewers. Even though she looks gorgeous like
Speaker 3: a dial on the screen, we're hearing the things that
Speaker 3: she's saying, it's not really lining up with the shit
Speaker 3: she's doing, Like the light.
Speaker 4: Did I say that? What's I talking about that? Did
Speaker 4: I say that?
Speaker 3: When you were literally on a high mic off camera
Speaker 3: saying this stuff? You know what I'm saying. It just
Speaker 3: kind of is a misalignment. And I want better for Porsche.
Speaker 3: I feel like season seventeen, all this shit will be
Speaker 3: worked out that needs to be worked out for her
Speaker 3: to exist kind of in the fullness of her personality
Speaker 3: on this cast, and maybe we'll see more, I'm hoping,
Speaker 3: And I'm also looking forward to the reunion because, make
Speaker 3: no mistake, Porsche Williams is very well aware of.
Speaker 4: The criticism she's receiving.
Speaker 3: She's very well aware of what people are and are
Speaker 3: not saying, and I think that her performance at the reunion,
Speaker 3: which I believe they take this week, should be interesting.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: So Porsche did address the things you brought up, dustand
Speaker 1: so Porscha after YouTube channel subscribe to a Porsche for Real.
Speaker 2: She did speak about what.
Speaker 1: We talked about before, which is stuff happening that we're
Speaker 1: not seeing, but also what's going on with her and
Speaker 1: Drew being over it. So listen, I'm gonna say this.
Speaker 1: I am over this working with Dennis. I think it's
Speaker 1: the storyline has run its course.
Speaker 2: It's not juicy.
Speaker 1: It's something that should have been three episodes max, only
Speaker 1: because unless Drew was really sleeping with Dennis, I don't
Speaker 1: care about this storyline.
Speaker 2: I don't care.
Speaker 1: About the idea of, well, y'all, you're filming with my
Speaker 1: baby daddy, you filming with my husband. I think for
Speaker 1: the audience this and this is just me being honest,
Speaker 1: it's taking us out of the real moment because we're
Speaker 1: confused as to why Episode thirteen I think was last night.
Speaker 1: We are still talking about something that happened episode one,
Speaker 1: and they addressed it, and I think Portia and Drew
Speaker 1: sit down really showed me that they both seem seemed
Speaker 1: to care about it, you know what I mean, Like
Speaker 1: I didn't feel connected to it.
Speaker 2: I didn't think they were connected to it.
Speaker 1: Porscha said that Drew is dating her producer Black. She
Speaker 1: later revealed that Dennis allegedly said it to her. She
Speaker 1: said that in her professional Drew alleged that Porsche is
Speaker 1: dating somebody else and.
Speaker 5: Future, she said, we don't protect one and not protect
Speaker 5: the other. But Bravo, I don't like that they protected
Speaker 5: Porsche by not saying Future's name. Who's a known thought
Speaker 5: in Atlantica. Anyone could scoo feature. Okay, he's so easy
Speaker 5: to gain, all right, he's just raw dog with everybody. Porsche,
Speaker 5: be careful before you get a bacteria infection if you
Speaker 5: are messing with him, because he clearly doesn't use comments
Speaker 5: with all those kids, like you can't like not show
Speaker 5: hear the name that they're saying about Porsche. But then
Speaker 5: put a picture of a guy that Drew's allegedly with
Speaker 5: and she said it wasn't true and then blur his
Speaker 5: face off. I just don't like that. That's very unfair.
Speaker 5: And those are the kinds of things that make me
Speaker 5: still have to keep pressure on her. And that's actually
Speaker 5: Bravo's fault, right in editing. That's not right, and that
Speaker 5: turns the viewers off where there seems to be favoritism,
Speaker 5: Like what's good for the goose better be good for
Speaker 5: the motherfucking Ganda, because that ain't right. Why we protecting
Speaker 5: one but we ain't protecting the other. Now Drew has
Speaker 5: to deal with false allegations allegedly right, and it's okay
Speaker 5: for us and no Black's name, but it okay for
Speaker 5: us to know future future, future future. I said it.
Speaker 5: Fugure mask off, fucking mask off.
Speaker 3: Okay, I love futures and music. Everybody know that's one
Speaker 3: of my favorite rappers. So the thought of him imports
Speaker 3: the dating I was turned on. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 3: But you know, I think they look good together.
Speaker 4: But you know, I understand why. It's the thing. I
Speaker 4: get it.
Speaker 3: And also I just want to say, March Madness is
Speaker 3: one of the greatest rap songs of all time. I
Speaker 3: want the orchestra to play March man Is when I'm
Speaker 3: shaking my peers hands is I'm walking up the aisle
Speaker 3: to except my ship.
Speaker 5: He's dope for music. I love his music. Listen, that's
Speaker 5: great music. Listen. I get it. Porscha, I get it, Porscha,
Speaker 5: I'm not. We listen. He's not an ugly eye either.
Speaker 5: We get it. But like I'm just talking about the
Speaker 5: fact of protecting context, protecting one out the other. Let's
Speaker 5: keep it fair here, keep it fair. That's not me dragon.
Speaker 1: I think did you what I thought was interesting is
Speaker 1: and the reason why everybody is commenting about being future,
Speaker 1: even Claudia is because on the the the mid season trailer,
Speaker 1: his name wasn't bleed, but in the episode it was bleed.
Speaker 2: That's why it was confusing, because.
Speaker 1: It's out there already, right, just based on that, And
Speaker 1: then I do know it was something that Simon alleged
Speaker 1: that happened. And I think that's the reason why Drew
Speaker 1: mentioned his name too, because Simon alleged that during his
Speaker 1: his his his time on social media. But listen, perhaps
Speaker 1: a cease and desist was sent over. But I think
Speaker 1: listen to Just's point. If it's true, and we don't
Speaker 1: know if it's true. If it's true, it's not a
Speaker 1: bad thing to day Porsche. If it's true Porsche, I
Speaker 1: think we all aliked Look furuture appears to be a
Speaker 1: good time, and ain't nobody mad if.
Speaker 2: It's a good time.
Speaker 5: And she very well may not have dated him, and
Speaker 5: it may be just Simon being a hater and throwing
Speaker 5: that out there. My point is not whether or not
Speaker 5: she did or she didn't. That's her business. If she's,
Speaker 5: like listen, she going through a divorce from from Simon,
Speaker 5: she can date who she wants to date, and that's like,
Speaker 5: that's keeping a buck. My point was the inconsistencies, like
Speaker 5: protecting Porsche's alleged hookup but not protecting Drew's alleged up
Speaker 5: when they're both in the same position going through messy divorces,
Speaker 5: Like let's have you know, maybe the black allegation with
Speaker 5: supposed it was Drew is not true either, and I
Speaker 5: feel like we don't know that either want to be
Speaker 5: true or false, but like have the same energy for both.
Speaker 5: That's what I had a problem with.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I just got a problem with the whole storyline.
Speaker 1: I thought, listen, it was cute episode one, maybe episode
Speaker 1: five when the whole thing came about with like whether
Speaker 1: or not Shemia got the message wrongly delivered to Drew
Speaker 1: about Drew's album paying for Polar's tuition.
Speaker 2: So to me.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I just think it was one of those things
Speaker 1: where I was like, I honestly don't care, and as
Speaker 1: I was watching the scene, I think they both just
Speaker 1: did not seem to even give a shit either.
Speaker 2: I'm glad they made up about it in.
Speaker 1: That episode, but I think it just has no I
Speaker 1: think it's did Wait, child, we are just getting started.
Speaker 1: This is reality with the King and I'm Carlos King.
Speaker 1: Let's get back into the show.
Speaker 5: It seemed like it's just dragging. Like in the past,
Speaker 5: it seemed like this is what some of the White
Speaker 5: Housewives shows would do. No shade, like, I'm not being
Speaker 5: racist like that, but I'm saying like, it seemed like
Speaker 5: the more White Housewives franchises would be stuck on a
Speaker 5: very small issue for many, many weeks and you're like,
Speaker 5: oh my god, she didn't go to the bar mits,
Speaker 5: but who gives damn. Like seven episodes later, we're still
Speaker 5: talking about it. And the Atlanta Housewives always had big
Speaker 5: like the reads were big, the big, big drama where
Speaker 5: you're like, all right, I get it. So it was exciting.
Speaker 5: This is giving kind of scrambling for storyline. Let me
Speaker 5: drag this for like six, seven, eight, nine episodes because
Speaker 5: if like, it's not that big of a deal some
Speaker 5: of the stuff. And now we're still we're looking at
Speaker 5: a meet up lunch between Drew and Porsche that should
Speaker 5: have happened episode three. In episode thirteen, we're all she's
Speaker 5: doing the entire time is bringing up black trying to
Speaker 5: embarrass her, and then Drew is popping off back and
Speaker 5: do we think they're going to get back on and
Speaker 5: cool again before the end of the season. I don't
Speaker 5: think so. I don't think there's enough time for him
Speaker 5: to get back cool. I don't think so. What do
Speaker 5: you think?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 3: And to be fair, Porscha had a lot of shit
Speaker 3: she couldn't talk about this season, right, so I'm sure
Speaker 3: she was searching for things to dig deeper into and
Speaker 3: present on camera. I just wish they would have picked
Speaker 3: something else, because this shit with Drew and this student's
Speaker 3: filming scenes and all of that shit is just it
Speaker 3: is literally belabored. At this point, we have had it
Speaker 3: with that situation, and everybody's had it.
Speaker 4: Were just ready to move on collectively.
Speaker 3: I was much more entertained by Porsche the dialogue they
Speaker 3: had at the table in Grenada, when they were all
Speaker 3: sitting down and her finally saying, maybe I did you know.
Speaker 4: To take it too far or whatever, Let's move on.
Speaker 3: I was happy to see that because there's so much
Speaker 3: other shit that they could be talking about.
Speaker 4: Fatrius back.
Speaker 3: Why hasn't anybody talked about where things were before she lived?
Speaker 3: Why can't we see her and Porsche talk about them
Speaker 3: patching up their friendship? Because the explanation that we were
Speaker 3: giving when Faedro returned it wasn't enough to me.
Speaker 4: We want to see the healing.
Speaker 3: That could be something that Porsche could lean into that's
Speaker 3: really authentic that we could see, you know what I mean,
Speaker 3: because there's so much that we can't see other than
Speaker 3: pulling this shit out of their asses about Drew and
Speaker 3: Dennis and all this other shit that just don't make
Speaker 3: any sense.
Speaker 5: The ogs are kind of letting us down. They're letting
Speaker 5: us well, I think to me, like when you think
Speaker 5: Fajr parks, like for years, there were some people that
Speaker 5: are her fans or Housewives fans that really wanted the
Speaker 5: return of Phaedro to the show. And when Porsche wasn't
Speaker 5: there for a while, people really wanted her to come back.
Speaker 5: And they came back, and they're really not giving. They're
Speaker 5: not giving because they're refusing to address the elephants in
Speaker 5: the room or they can't. Phaeda, like you would be
Speaker 5: the talk of the town if like we would really
Speaker 5: have a serious conversation about the big life that you know,
Speaker 5: all that stuff, but they're like staying away from that,
Speaker 5: and all you're coming with is these weird faces. It
Speaker 5: looks like your top teeth are missing, like the blonde hair,
Speaker 5: like you're not really giving, You're being mean to people.
Speaker 5: Once again, you don't even know, and that's why people think.
Speaker 5: I don't know what people think my issue with portrait phagers,
Speaker 5: and I'm not going to spend more time on it.
Speaker 5: But the same thing happened when I got on the show.
Speaker 5: She went on. Ellen Degeneral is talking about me before
Speaker 5: she even met me. It doesn't like why you going
Speaker 5: in like you don't know these people and you're going
Speaker 5: in before you even do one scene with them. It's
Speaker 5: different if you do a commentary, but you're going into
Speaker 5: this friend circle late in the game and being a
Speaker 5: mean girl out the gate. And I don't think it's
Speaker 5: I don't think it's giving like the shade that she thinks.
Speaker 5: And it's not funny like it could be. I think
Speaker 5: it's funny. It's not funny.
Speaker 3: What we also know for sure is that Fader's not
Speaker 3: quick on her feet on that reunion stage with no notes,
Speaker 3: and so I think that she's going to be in
Speaker 3: for a rude awakening when they get on their stage,
Speaker 3: because these ladies have watched this shit and they've seen
Speaker 3: the things that have been said, and they watched the
Speaker 3: show for previous years. I think we're going to see
Speaker 3: some interesting conversations on that reunion stage.
Speaker 5: I just found it really funny for Asia to sit
Speaker 5: there and call Brit I mean a girl about town,
Speaker 5: PHAs now, Phaja parks Fai phaser PHAs now, don't get
Speaker 5: me to talk and honey, boom boo, because you're not
Speaker 5: the woman the Christian that you try to portray yourself
Speaker 5: to be. You're very much in these streets with lots
Speaker 5: of rappers on air mattresses with ankle bracelets back in
Speaker 5: the day, allegedly, and you have done your dirt, so
Speaker 5: that may not be the area, like lying, fraud and
Speaker 5: hoism may not be the area that you may want
Speaker 5: to attack. Maybe attack on something else, because you know,
Speaker 5: never attack on things that you're guilty of. So you're
Speaker 5: strong suits you can attack on. You're smart, you're educated,
Speaker 5: you've been to school, got a big ass, you know
Speaker 5: you those are your strong suits. But like when you
Speaker 5: are like before you even like get to know this,
Speaker 5: girls like you was really coming for people that you're
Speaker 5: kind of like, what's the difference between you and Britt?
Speaker 2: Actually, so I do want to talk about.
Speaker 1: Speaking of which, I want to talk about the shade
Speaker 1: that Phaedra made to Angela because Claudia is the last
Speaker 1: week we did talk about Padri's return, and I said, like,
Speaker 1: oh my gosh, it was funny. I was laughing, you know,
Speaker 1: the little shade here and there. I thought was funny.
Speaker 1: Obviously I'm not that person, so it's not at my expense,
Speaker 1: but I thought it was fun like shade, right, I
Speaker 1: will admit in this episode.
Speaker 2: When Paedra.
Speaker 1: Talked about Angela and she said how she is the
Speaker 1: oldest looking younger person she's ever met, and hopefully her
Speaker 1: personality is more youthful than her face, I was.
Speaker 2: I didn't like that. And the reason why I don't
Speaker 2: like is because, look, I come from the old school Housewives.
Speaker 2: I love. I love a good shade of good read.
Speaker 2: When Nini and Shary ready.
Speaker 1: To about the doggy tea, your carving repossessed your baseball knees,
Speaker 1: you know, put them put them knees on a treadmill.
Speaker 2: Your skin can use of bleaching.
Speaker 1: Those ladies were friends before the show happened, and this
Speaker 1: happened season four or four years into the show. So
Speaker 1: when they read each other about their appearances. The reason
Speaker 1: why we all laughed about it is because those two
Speaker 1: had a friendship and we saw a history between Nienie
Speaker 1: and Charae that warranted shade to not just be about
Speaker 1: you know, your gate is broken.
Speaker 2: Or your car got repossessed. They said, bitch, I'm gonna
Speaker 2: go for the gusto. But they earned it. Nieni and
Speaker 2: Scharay earned the.
Speaker 1: Right to come for each other's physical appearance. And I
Speaker 1: feel like Phaedra attacking Angela's physical appearance without even physically
Speaker 1: meeting her. I just felt I didn't feel good about it.
Speaker 1: I didn't like get at all.
Speaker 5: I thought it was especiallylashbacks of phasia. Phaedria is a
Speaker 5: She's not a renovation. She's a complete tear down and
Speaker 5: rebuild of what she looked like when she first got
Speaker 5: on the show. Let's keep it a buck, okay, Phaedra,
Speaker 5: you have your audacity to sit here and say, Angela
Speaker 5: looks like the oldest young person you've ever seen. Angela
Speaker 5: is the most natural person on that show. Clock that's
Speaker 5: he the most natural body is snatched, doesn't have a
Speaker 5: ridiculous looking bbl her waist. She looks good. She's had
Speaker 5: some work done on her face. She we talked about that,
Speaker 5: the nose, whatever, but she's pretty natural in comparison to
Speaker 5: a lot of reality stars and for her torself, come
Speaker 5: out there out the gate and say that she once again,
Speaker 5: you're attacking something that you're weak in yourself. We all
Speaker 5: see the throwbacks when you first came on that show
Speaker 5: looking like someone's grandma.
Speaker 3: Okay, and for you, yes, and that was just what
Speaker 3: a year ago, you know what I'm saying, right, And
Speaker 3: that's the thing I mean, friend, I'm sorry, but physical appearance,
Speaker 3: it's just subjective, right, Like people, everybody has an opinion
Speaker 3: on what's attractive to them and what's not.
Speaker 4: And that's just a dangerous water to plan.
Speaker 3: Now if we arguing, you know what I'm saying, and
Speaker 3: we're at that level and we're going there.
Speaker 4: Then fuck it, let the shit fly.
Speaker 3: But unprompted, unsolicited, unwarranted, just going after Angela's physical appearance
Speaker 3: like that, it wasn't cool, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 4: It just wasn't It didn't look good, it didn't land well.
Speaker 3: It was not a way to return when you just
Speaker 3: came back off the heels of you saying some crazy
Speaker 3: shit in the first place, which is why you are
Speaker 3: part of this show for all that time. It's not
Speaker 3: the way to come back in. I would like to
Speaker 3: see just her be funny outside of punching down, you
Speaker 3: know what I'm saying, Like it's a way to do
Speaker 3: it without being mean spirited.
Speaker 5: It's given because she came in late in the season
Speaker 5: that she feels like she got to come out guns
Speaker 5: blazing and like just kind of make a splash. But
Speaker 5: the old Phaser that had you know, some funny reads
Speaker 5: come in with that and that's enough. It's almost like overcome. Okay,
Speaker 5: I haven't been here for I missed eleven episodes, so
Speaker 5: let me come in here, attack Angela. Attack this when
Speaker 5: attack this? Want attack this one when? Okay, we get
Speaker 5: reading as part of this. But like, Angela hasn't done
Speaker 5: anything to you.
Speaker 4: Yet, right, it's got to make sense. It's got to
Speaker 4: make sense.
Speaker 1: Yeah, when it was when it was to that degree,
Speaker 1: like I said, listen calling Kelly and Garden known because
Speaker 1: she's short, Okay, Like you know, like okay, that's whatever, right,
Speaker 1: Bristol girl about town, Okay whatever, even even in this episode, now,
Speaker 1: look I did because I'm.
Speaker 2: Very honest, right, and fair when she said.
Speaker 1: Drew, I don't hope I Drew stuff, but she alsoul
Speaker 1: trained like that to be as funny, you.
Speaker 3: Know what I mean, like you could it was funny
Speaker 3: but right, it was funny.
Speaker 2: Yes, that was the thing.
Speaker 1: It's one of the things where you can make a
Speaker 1: joke that can be a little bit age is.
Speaker 2: But I think the thing that threw me off about.
Speaker 1: Angela was just Angela said two seconds before that, shady bye.
Speaker 2: I see Fedra looking forward to meeting her. Then damn
Speaker 2: she blew her head off.
Speaker 1: And the thing about Drew because to me, it was
Speaker 1: more so about Drew's profession, right, like I know, watch
Speaker 1: her old stuff that she dances, soul trained like that
Speaker 1: to me is.
Speaker 2: Lighthearted. Again, I'm not Drew, so I don't know how
Speaker 2: she took it.
Speaker 1: But if I'm being honest, right, I was turned off
Speaker 1: by the Angela disc but the Drew soul trained comment.
Speaker 1: I did laugh out loud because I thought was like, okay,
Speaker 1: that's that's funny. But I do think this.
Speaker 2: I do think this. I was looking forward to seeing.
Speaker 1: Faedra's life in this episode because she is back and
Speaker 1: I wanted to see her at home. I wanted to see,
Speaker 1: mister president.
Speaker 4: Beautiful kid.
Speaker 5: She's got beautiful.
Speaker 1: Yeah, because she's a housewife right right, she's holding a peach.
Speaker 1: I did expect to see some faith your personal story
Speaker 1: in this episode, whether it was this is me being honest,
Speaker 1: whether it was Faedra packing to go to Grenada while
Speaker 1: her kids were there and she's telling them like.
Speaker 2: You know her. Because Faedra is a great mom.
Speaker 1: So anytime you get to see Fadra being a mom,
Speaker 1: it balances out.
Speaker 2: Her lethal shade.
Speaker 1: And I think because and this this is I'm being honest,
Speaker 1: because we're not seeing and it's been two episodes, I know,
Speaker 1: but Faedra is coming in hot, and I think what
Speaker 1: could have been a balance of a kool off is
Speaker 1: if we would have been settled in her life and
Speaker 1: been welcomed with her at home with the kids getting
Speaker 1: ready for Grenada uppacking, so that this lethal shade doesn't
Speaker 1: feel like uh, Because I think what we're all experiencing
Speaker 1: is every time we see Faja pop up on screen,
Speaker 1: it's like a lethal shade that comes down to confessionals
Speaker 1: and it's like, give us, give us a beat. Like
Speaker 1: we were twelve weeks in and we got to come
Speaker 1: a little bit and.
Speaker 5: It's not as funny as what it used to be,
Speaker 5: you know what I mean. She's definitely I think I
Speaker 5: think she's lost a step when it comes to like
Speaker 5: her funny reads. And maybe she's like feeling awkward because
Speaker 5: she hasn't been around and she's a bit rusty. But
Speaker 5: for her to come, see, I didn't like the shade
Speaker 5: for Drew's career because I like so I was like,
Speaker 5: you know what, I'm all about fair and balance. So
Speaker 5: let's talk about Phada's career because she always prides herself
Speaker 5: on being a brilliant attorney. So let's if you do
Speaker 5: a simple Google search of Phaja Parks and Bobby Brown,
Speaker 5: let me just give you a quote from Bobby Brown. Meanwhile,
Speaker 5: Brown said of Parks in his book, I won't cast
Speaker 5: aspirations on her lowering skills, but I will say that
Speaker 5: when she was my lawyer, I usually wind up going
Speaker 5: to jail. So, you know, she likes to talk shit
Speaker 5: about people's careers and stuff. But like in the words
Speaker 5: of Cynthia Bailey, win a case. You know, so then
Speaker 5: she became an undertaker because her career in law was
Speaker 5: as dead as the bodies that she said she wanted
Speaker 5: to curate and fix and work on. So you come
Speaker 5: in here with this whack ass jokes for people who
Speaker 5: actually do have a career. Listen, you can say a
Speaker 5: lot of things about Drew, you can call her a liar,
Speaker 5: you can question some of her her truth, but what
Speaker 5: you cannot do is come for the girl's talent. I
Speaker 5: did a movie with this girl. She's a great actress
Speaker 5: and she's a great singer, and you can't come for
Speaker 5: the career. And even saying soul trained, honey, you look
Speaker 5: like you as a dancer on Soul Trained, with the
Speaker 5: looks that you had up until the last three years
Speaker 5: when you finally got a lace front, because you're the
Speaker 5: one that gives nineteen sixties nineteen seventies was around back
Speaker 5: when there was black and white television. So you coming
Speaker 5: for someone else's age career. And again that's not where
Speaker 5: you should be. Phaedria. Use your strong suits, huge, use education,
Speaker 5: use your degrees. But instead you're falling flat. And the
Speaker 5: reason I'm really reading and it seems like when she
Speaker 5: doesn't have a Kenya to go up against, she's not
Speaker 5: really giving anything.
Speaker 2: We need.
Speaker 5: You need Apollo, and you need Kenya, because you're not
Speaker 5: giving anything. You're not you're giving, you're giving. This is
Speaker 5: just another check. She's got a lot of reality shows
Speaker 5: she's on, which I give her congress on that she's
Speaker 5: making a lot of money Traders, all House of Villains,
Speaker 5: all these shows I think she's doing. And this seems
Speaker 5: like a stop along the way. It doesn't seem as invested,
Speaker 5: because maybe you'd have better things to say. You're a
Speaker 5: smart girl. You could do better than these lazy reads
Speaker 5: you've been doing. I don't like them.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I agree with Claudia. I think we had a
Speaker 3: great opportunity to be reintroduced to Faedra, right, this is
Speaker 3: she She was in such a unique and great position,
Speaker 3: right like getting put back on to the fucking Real
Speaker 3: Housewives of Atlanta after a multi year hiatus like that.
Speaker 3: Quiet said that Candy Birds had benched her for all
Speaker 3: them years, you know what I'm saying over at the Housewives.
Speaker 4: So for her to be able to come back and have.
Speaker 3: The opportunity to reintroduce yourself to the audience, that was
Speaker 3: a hell of an opportunity.
Speaker 4: And so far, I don't want.
Speaker 3: To speak prematurely, but two episodes in it looks like
Speaker 3: the opportunity has been.
Speaker 5: Because she came.
Speaker 4: I don't think there was any strategy in place whatsoever.
Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying. I think she just started filming.
Speaker 3: At least that's what it appears to be.
Speaker 4: To me.
Speaker 5: It's giving letdown and I feel like with all that, listen,
Speaker 5: there's no doubt that Fada was not a good housewise
Speaker 5: what she was on the show. I will give her that.
Speaker 5: If she came with like half of that talent and
Speaker 5: that presence, it would make it. She would quickly rise
Speaker 5: to be like one of the stars of the show.
Speaker 4: Right.
Speaker 5: We'd be like, Yo, this is what we missed because
Speaker 5: you don't have Nini, you don't enough Kenya, you don't
Speaker 5: have like you know, the ogi's really like that. She
Speaker 5: could have easily walked in and kind of ran it,
Speaker 5: but instead she went this route. And I think she
Speaker 5: should just came in with funny reads, not just that's
Speaker 5: not enough just to buy that paycheck, you know, it's
Speaker 5: not enough. I don't know, are we getting paid to
Speaker 5: make facial expressions? Well, Carlos, you owe me four hundred
Speaker 5: thousand dollars.
Speaker 2: Off story. I'm trying to make sure this thing cooks.
Speaker 5: That's how Look I got Fagers whole season and ten seconds.
Speaker 5: Uh oh, not a garden nome. I love little people. Wait,
Speaker 5: let me hide my top teach.
Speaker 2: Please, I'm not mad.
Speaker 5: I'm just honest. You know, you know it rain drops whatever?
Speaker 5: Is it? Just the bottom teeth and at the time
Speaker 5: of what we're doing. I know that's a new trend
Speaker 5: where people fix the top teeth and at the bottom.
Speaker 5: But she got the reverse. I don't know, but fed
Speaker 5: go back to what made you great when you came
Speaker 5: on the show, being funny line about new dates and
Speaker 5: all that. But it's okay. It still made it for
Speaker 5: an interesting story. But this we're here attacking Angela and
Speaker 5: other people before you even meet them, Like, at least
Speaker 5: meet them then we can justify it. We'll be with
Speaker 5: We'll be with you when you write yeah, and also
Speaker 5: think this.
Speaker 2: I'm in with this.
Speaker 1: I also because as somebody who worked on the show,
Speaker 1: I love Listen. Nothing is better than a face off,
Speaker 1: like face and face you know what I mean, Like
Speaker 1: a face to face off. You know what I'm saying,
Speaker 1: Like listen Fedra versus Kenya face to face Me to
Speaker 1: Co season five, six, seven, eight nine, Like that's I
Speaker 1: love a face and face face off. So I think,
Speaker 1: to your point, if that's going to be a read,
Speaker 1: I think, say it to their face so that it
Speaker 1: can be a ping pong and I and I think then,
Speaker 1: I think then the audience would appreciate it and would
Speaker 1: appreciate the read. Because even when you and Nini had
Speaker 1: y'all back and forth and again on.
Speaker 2: My podcast, when I asked.
Speaker 1: The legend the icon the Queen Nini leagues, of all
Speaker 1: the battles you had in your career Housewives, which one
Speaker 1: was your most Like, I'm forgetting how I praised it,
Speaker 1: but like it was yeah, like you're formidable opponent. And
Speaker 1: she said, Claudia Jordan, thank you. I'm like, hey, Kim Zosiak,
Speaker 1: she said, if I had to give to any of
Speaker 1: these girls, Claudia and I think it's because she appreciated
Speaker 1: and I'm gonna speak be Nini, she can speak for herself.
Speaker 1: I think it's because Nini appreciated this girl came to
Speaker 1: me with the read to my face as a newbie,
Speaker 1: and that back and forth ping pongrus was respected. Clauda
Speaker 1: didn't hide behind anything, like she said to your face.
Speaker 2: So I think when these re.
Speaker 1: Reads are iconic when it's face to face and not rehearse.
Speaker 2: To me, Claudia, I said face to face child, all right,
Speaker 2: so we're gonna I said face to face, Sudie. So
Speaker 2: when we.
Speaker 6: Look at the.
Speaker 1: First of all, Claudia, does it getsphasor of rougher buddy
Speaker 1: with faces?
Speaker 2: Does it faces where you and I be going?
Speaker 1: At some times it's the funniest.
Speaker 2: Look back because I'm such a fantom of mother. I
Speaker 2: live that. On Tuesday mornings, I watched it again.
Speaker 1: Hey, y'all.
Speaker 5: In the comments, I'll come of say something. I know
Speaker 5: I'm not supposed to being the comments, but I do,
Speaker 5: right because I like to hear if there's something we're missing.
Speaker 5: There's no jealousy or hate towards any of these women.
Speaker 5: These I'm so far removed from that. That was ten
Speaker 5: years ago, you guys. I live in Dallas. I'm not
Speaker 5: trying to get on Atlanta. I've been gone for literally
Speaker 5: eleven years. Actually it's not about that. But when I'm
Speaker 5: asked to do commentary, I'm going to comment commentates on
Speaker 5: what I feel and what I think. Whether I was
Speaker 5: on the show or not, it has nothing to do
Speaker 5: with it. I can provide a little extra context because
Speaker 5: I did work with some of these people and I
Speaker 5: know how the reality game goes to an extent, So
Speaker 5: please don't take my honesty for any kind of bit.
Speaker 5: I'm not bitter or jealous of Porsche or Phaser. I
Speaker 5: have a very fucking amazing life, glowing hairline, real, everything, real,
Speaker 5: I'm happy, I look young. It's not that.
Speaker 3: This is a commentary, so we're here to give commentary.
Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying. That's why I stay out.
Speaker 4: You can, you.
Speaker 6: Can?
Speaker 5: I can?
Speaker 6: I do that.
Speaker 2: Not not a trust.
Speaker 3: Give you guys topefully that we need to get your
Speaker 3: sacred endorsement line.
Speaker 4: And show.
Speaker 2: Anywhere moving on. This is called a transition.
Speaker 5: Okay, I just want to put that to bed. It's
Speaker 5: not that. But if you want me to be fake,
Speaker 5: I can be fad fake things and be like, oh.
Speaker 1: Well, Claudia, I think you should know by now when
Speaker 1: you weren't here for a week.
Speaker 2: They missed you. So listen.
Speaker 1: The ones who get it getting The ones who don't
Speaker 1: just never will And that's fine, that's fine, it's fine.
Speaker 1: But I appreciate everybody who tunes in because at the
Speaker 1: end of the day, We're obviously provided some commentary for
Speaker 1: you guys to watch, and I, along with Claudia and Dustin,
Speaker 1: we all appreciate you taking time on a Monday night
Speaker 1: to watch us. Okay, So, whether you disagree with Claudia,
Speaker 1: Dustin or be, I appreciate you opportunity again.
Speaker 2: And I know they do tool.
Speaker 4: In this square. Do you see what she is doing?
Speaker 5: These are real too. I'm just fat.
Speaker 2: This is the thing. This is the thing.
Speaker 1: I don't know how y'all can hate Claudia because listen, listen,
Speaker 1: this is me. This social media, don't do it even
Speaker 1: if you disagree with the person. I always think it's
Speaker 1: best to just say at least the chick is funny
Speaker 1: or the guy's fuddy.
Speaker 2: Like you don't have to like Claudia, but come.
Speaker 5: On, my real ones like me, and I just that
Speaker 5: the ones that like me love me, and the ones
Speaker 5: that hate me, I haven't met me yet.
Speaker 1: All the tears let me last night, moderator, give my ts.
Speaker 5: Yeah, not rented, nuther hair. I will rent if I'm
Speaker 5: hosting a reunion. I rent because I might kind of
Speaker 5: wear it again, but I don't not my everyday life. Okay,
Speaker 5: now that we're clear.
Speaker 1: Okay, So thank you Alabama, SAVI love you. Okay, let's
Speaker 1: get into some of the girls arriving Granada are all
Speaker 1: of our mutual friends. Cynthia Belly admitted that she's in love.
Speaker 1: The guy is younger.
Speaker 2: I want to talk about this really.
Speaker 1: Fast because I think it's important. Cynthia is with a
Speaker 1: younger man. She did not just close his age, so
Speaker 1: I'm not he lives in Absterdam. Everything that I'm saying,
Speaker 1: she disclosed herself. She's sat on the after show and
Speaker 1: it made me sad, and I want to bring this up,
Speaker 1: not only for Claudia and Dustin to talk about, but
Speaker 1: I know this lot of people in these comments who
Speaker 1: love when we talk about relationships, Cynthia said on the
Speaker 1: after show as she was talking about her new love
Speaker 1: and she was telling Drew some of this too.
Speaker 2: She said.
Speaker 1: Dating him feels different because he treats her nice. And
Speaker 1: she said she almost broke it off with him because
Speaker 1: he was just too nice, and she had to capture
Speaker 1: something and say why as a twice divorced woman, don't
Speaker 1: I think I deserve a man who is just nice.
Speaker 1: She said, he wants to be around her, he likes
Speaker 1: to kiss her he likes to hang out with her,
Speaker 1: and she said she never knew what that felt like.
Speaker 1: And I felt sad for her, but also happy for
Speaker 1: her that she got that. So I want you guys
Speaker 1: to speak about that too. Listen, all of us are single.
Speaker 1: That stuff I relate to, just like that.
Speaker 2: Relate to in terms of claw Claw.
Speaker 5: Not everyone here. I just said, that's not true.
Speaker 1: I don't know who at the end of the day.
Speaker 1: Is that something you took relate to. I thought I
Speaker 1: was powerful.
Speaker 4: I think with Cynthia. Cynthia is a unique case, right.
Speaker 3: Cynthia moved to New York City when she was eighteen, okay,
Speaker 3: and got thrust right into like the modeling world. She's dated,
Speaker 3: you know, men who are very powerful, very rich, and
Speaker 3: very complicated, you know what I'm saying, at a very
Speaker 3: early age. She was exposed to that sort of dating
Speaker 3: environment and that sort of relationship.
Speaker 4: And she's been famous.
Speaker 3: For a long fucking time, and so she's had she
Speaker 3: hasn't had the opportunity to kind of like land anywhere,
Speaker 3: you know what I'm saying, Especially in relationships they didn't
Speaker 3: necessarily pan out.
Speaker 4: So hearing her say that she feels that.
Speaker 3: Shit now that makes me feel so happy for her.
Speaker 3: I love her very much much and I'm glad that
Speaker 3: she's happy. She deserves all of that shit, and everything
Speaker 3: she said on the show was real. We all know
Speaker 3: we've been known, but to see her share it with
Speaker 3: the world that felt good. And people have to remember,
Speaker 3: Cynthia hasn't lived a regular life, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 3: Her life has been unique especial for a long fucking time.
Speaker 3: The majority of her adult life, she hasn't had what
Speaker 3: we would all consider most people consider to be a
Speaker 3: normal dating life. So to hear her have that takeaway
Speaker 3: now feels good and it looks good on her.
Speaker 4: She looks very happy.
Speaker 5: I feel I hate that she feels like well not
Speaker 5: I can't saund she feels, but it sounds like she
Speaker 5: feels like maybe like she didn't deserve it, or like
Speaker 5: that she's surprised that anyone wouldn't be lining up to
Speaker 5: treat Cynthia Bailey amazing. Cynthia is a very nice person.
Speaker 1: She really is nice, very nice and not to countch
Speaker 1: Off Laudia, Cynthia will literally give you her last dollar
Speaker 1: the jacket off of her back. Cynthia is top five
Speaker 1: of one of the most genuine giving people.
Speaker 2: Like when I say give, like, I've been in.
Speaker 1: Situations with Cynthia where she's like, I'm gonna take care
Speaker 1: of this, and I said, Cynthia, I'm a man.
Speaker 2: You're not gonna take care of aiding around me.
Speaker 1: I got you since, but she does it with such love,
Speaker 1: So Claudia, I can.
Speaker 5: Agree and like that says a lot about the dating
Speaker 5: pool that someone that is as kind, beautiful, successful as
Speaker 5: as Cynthia feeling at this age right not to age Shamber,
Speaker 5: because I'm right behind her.
Speaker 4: Right.
Speaker 5: Just saying at this age like this, many years have
Speaker 5: gone by where you haven't felt the love that you
Speaker 5: deserve is insane to me. But I understand. I've been
Speaker 5: having a lot of conversations with girlfriends about this, Like
Speaker 5: I feel a lot of and I want to go
Speaker 5: live and talk about this. Maybe when we finally do
Speaker 5: the show Miami, we can talk about this. A lot
Speaker 5: of women, a lot of women.
Speaker 1: How much right y'all could never y'all could never make Jordan,
Speaker 1: I'm sorry.
Speaker 5: A lot of women feel like almost that they have
Speaker 5: to be apologetic of their success, and especially now, this
Speaker 5: constant remind is in the media like black women are
Speaker 5: doing so much better than black men, and that's probably
Speaker 5: causing some kind of a divide, you know, it's making
Speaker 5: it us versus them, And a lot of women that
Speaker 5: are successful a lot of times get penalized by their
Speaker 5: men and they kind of try to humble you in
Speaker 5: the relationships. So while you're thinking, isn't this great, I
Speaker 5: booked something else and he's like, you know, I didn't
Speaker 5: get a callback from my business, or a business is struggling,
Speaker 5: and it's like, instead of like writing for each other,
Speaker 5: it becomes a competition. And i think in Cynthia's life,
Speaker 5: she's probably had a lot of that, especially if you're
Speaker 5: a model dating and not saying Leanne was like that.
Speaker 5: I'm not saying that about him, but if she dated
Speaker 5: it in that world, it's very difficult when you're booking
Speaker 5: your guy isn't in business. Like we all had to
Speaker 5: publicly see the things that happened with Peter, right, and
Speaker 5: I'm sure that had to be difficult for him when
Speaker 5: to see in contrast, wifey is flourishing and you're getting
Speaker 5: the bad rap, right. That's not an easy position to
Speaker 5: be in. So I'm sure she had to downplay a
Speaker 5: lot of time, and now she's not downplaying anything. She's comfortable,
Speaker 5: she's happy. I talked to her about a couple weeks
Speaker 5: ago for like an hour, and we caught up on
Speaker 5: all things, and she was just so happy, Like it
Speaker 5: seems like very simple and just and fun, and it
Speaker 5: sucks that you got to wait this long to get
Speaker 5: that and you're often punished for your success.
Speaker 1: And the advice she gave everybody that I know I
Speaker 1: always lived by. She says she will never ever ever
Speaker 1: have a public relationship. She says she would never post
Speaker 1: them on social media. She says she would never do
Speaker 1: recarpet with him. She said, I've learned the hard way
Speaker 1: and that's not going to happen. And look, she's happy.
Speaker 1: She's happy, she's happy, so she's not off. To Cynthia Bailey,
Speaker 1: you found love, honey, getting that.
Speaker 5: Back broke by your young en. I love it for you.
Speaker 1: Yes, I want to get into Drew versus Shemiah.
Speaker 2: I'm over this too. I'm listening. I mean, I listen.
Speaker 1: I'm glad it's over. At least I hope it is
Speaker 1: a child because again I always ask people, is it
Speaker 1: that deep? And I think when it comes to Jewish Shamia.
Speaker 1: I think Shamia and Drew, I think they know what
Speaker 1: it was and they have to talk about something again.
Speaker 1: I think it fell flat.
Speaker 2: Now.
Speaker 1: I don't know what buffet Drew sligh Dora had, but
Speaker 1: she ate when she told Samiah, who she referred to
Speaker 1: as a lap dog, well, a head dog will holler.
Speaker 2: Ju So the doors having.
Speaker 1: Her best season that she's ever had as her presidence
Speaker 1: on the show, Absolutely that was an excellent read and
Speaker 1: it was to her face.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it was quick, very quick. I think that. I
Speaker 4: don't know. I'll just leave it on the positive.
Speaker 3: Yes, Drew is having the best season she's had in
Speaker 3: quite some time, and I'll enjoy on this is episode
Speaker 3: what twelve thirteen thirteen thirteen. I am enjoying Drew at
Speaker 3: this point of this season.
Speaker 4: I'm enjoying Drusidora on the Real Housewives of Atlanta. I've
Speaker 4: never said that. I can say that tonight.
Speaker 5: I like her on this I again, I've been away
Speaker 5: from the show for like a decade, but I like
Speaker 5: what I'm saying. I like that she says it to
Speaker 5: your face. She never comes off mad, like she's not yelling.
Speaker 5: She does it with like a calm she doesn't raise
Speaker 5: her voice. She's like, oh okay, waits her turn to
Speaker 5: get you with the read. I don't like that Shamiyah
Speaker 5: and Drew have a thing because I do like them both,
Speaker 5: and I would like them to kind of get over this.
Speaker 5: I also think maybe Shamia's storyline is also affected by
Speaker 5: her husband. I wanted a film as much, but you know,
Speaker 5: so she's so, you know, when there's a little bit
Speaker 5: of a deficiency, like I'm sure she would love to
Speaker 5: be able to show her amazing relationship with a very
Speaker 5: wealthy and loving man. And when you don't have that
Speaker 5: as you're not able to do as much. Your storyline
Speaker 5: does become their interpersonal relationships with amongst the girls. So
Speaker 5: you got to have to stretch out an argument with Drew,
Speaker 5: and you know what I mean, Like, I think that's
Speaker 5: probably the reason why that's still going on. And I
Speaker 5: feel like they're trying to make Drew the bad girl,
Speaker 5: bad guy of this group. Why, you know, I think
Speaker 5: Kelly said everyone has a problem with Drew. I'm like,
Speaker 5: do they all have a problem with Drew?
Speaker 3: What's her problem with Drew? Do you guys remember what
Speaker 3: Kelly's problem is with Drew? Because that's a real question.
Speaker 3: I don't know what it is. I must have missed it.
Speaker 2: No, I think listen and y'all know me. I love Kelly.
Speaker 2: I'm a Kelly fan. I think I think Kelly. Kelly
Speaker 2: is the host of the trip.
Speaker 1: I think Kelly may have been approach to bring Drew
Speaker 1: up and that was her way to find a natural way,
Speaker 1: because when I say, it felt flat and it made
Speaker 1: no sense, and I think Kelly, being a newbie, was
Speaker 1: sort of like I guess but if you look around
Speaker 1: the room, Drew does not have a problem with anybody.
Speaker 2: But yeah, I don't Kelly. But yeah, Kelly, Yeah, but
Speaker 2: that would.
Speaker 5: But Carlos, like you said, like sometimes you have to
Speaker 5: your giving instructions. I don't want to, it's not really
Speaker 5: and they're like, well we need it and.
Speaker 1: So or find a way to bring this up so
Speaker 1: we can talk about it.
Speaker 4: You I'm sorry, go ahead, let's go ahead, go ahead.
Speaker 2: I'm just gonna say I thought it was funny because
Speaker 2: when Kelly brought up like.
Speaker 1: Okay, so let's talk about this, they didn't show who
Speaker 1: said it, and maybe I didn't catch it, but somebody said.
Speaker 2: I was about to go left, like yeah, yeah, they.
Speaker 1: They kind of just knew, like we're at a dinner
Speaker 1: table off the country, we got to talk about it.
Speaker 2: So that's what That's what I thought of too.
Speaker 3: Do you think brit was prompted when she brought up
Speaker 3: Apollo and his wife sure ain't being invited to their event?
Speaker 1: Yes, because I think for them it was sort of
Speaker 1: like Fadri's here, let's bring up something to get her
Speaker 1: to cook. It fell flat because Fedra, and this is
Speaker 1: the thing about this is a thing about producing. You
Speaker 1: have to know your audience. And by your audience, I
Speaker 1: mean the cast Aedra and Apollo have not been together in.
Speaker 2: I think nine years.
Speaker 1: Aedra doesn't give two fs about what Apollo does as
Speaker 1: a married man, and that's why I'm on phaedrus side
Speaker 1: when it comes to her saying like he's married to
Speaker 1: another woman and has been for a very long time.
Speaker 1: I think Britt was, you know, proposition to bring it up.
Speaker 1: And I also think too because I also thought too, like,
Speaker 1: well it fell flat while wasn't in there.
Speaker 2: And then.
Speaker 1: I wonder you guys agree with this. I think it
Speaker 1: was kept in because.
Speaker 2: You forget Britt is.
Speaker 5: There and.
Speaker 1: Listen, I'm being very I'm being very honest, and I
Speaker 1: said this last week. I started off this season praising Brit,
Speaker 1: I said Britt, I said, I love me some Brett.
Speaker 1: Britt seems to be that girl. I am starting to
Speaker 1: feel bad for brit because I feel like she's fading
Speaker 1: and and it makes me sad because I felt like
Speaker 1: brit Edie has so much potential, and it does make
Speaker 1: me sad to watch the possibilities of who she could.
Speaker 2: Have become stayed away.
Speaker 1: I believe we have two or three episodes left, guys, and.
Speaker 2: I just I do feel like even last.
Speaker 1: Week, like, look, hey Bread, if you're watching, look you bet.
Speaker 2: This is my advice to you.
Speaker 1: I would celebrate the fact that you're being talked about again,
Speaker 1: because there was this dry spell after the incident at
Speaker 1: the hairspot, and last week's your event, we did talk
Speaker 1: about you. Now, granted it wasn't the greatest thing to
Speaker 1: talk about. But one thing pat Tie Labille always said,
Speaker 1: when people stop talking about you, that's when you need
Speaker 1: to be worried. And my advice to brid is people
Speaker 1: aren't talking about you in the way they used to,
Speaker 1: and that worries me for her, her and her only
Speaker 1: sort of like second win did come last week because
Speaker 1: I feel like good press a bad press.
Speaker 2: Get my name right, but I do put bad for bread.
Speaker 4: I do. Brit got done a disservice when.
Speaker 5: Kenya was removed from her storyline.
Speaker 3: Because you had that and Kenya's removed from the cast
Speaker 3: ended up overshadowing everything that we know about Brit and
Speaker 3: don't know about Brett.
Speaker 4: All we do know about Brit is.
Speaker 3: That she was the young lady who was in conflict
Speaker 3: with Kenya Moore and that conflict resulted in Kenya's departure
Speaker 3: from the show. That's all we know, and her mama moved.
Speaker 3: That's all we know about brit Edie, you know what
Speaker 3: I'm saying. And that scandal that all the hoopla, scuttle
Speaker 3: but and shit talking that was going on surrounding Kenya's
Speaker 3: departure from the show has completely overshadowed britt Edie's presence
Speaker 3: on this cast. She's scrambling to connect with these ladies,
Speaker 3: and the scenes that we were watching even on the
Speaker 3: some of the after show scenes that I've seen where
Speaker 3: her and Phaedra and Porsche are filming together, you can
Speaker 3: see her trying to connect or find a bridge amongst
Speaker 3: the two of them to kind of like fall into
Speaker 3: their groove of banter, and unfortunately.
Speaker 4: It just misplaced.
Speaker 3: I think that that story just got way bigger than
Speaker 3: what else she had to offer on this cast, and
Speaker 3: now we're kind of looking at it with our poems up,
Speaker 3: like what's up? You know what I'm saying. I don't
Speaker 3: think that was fair to her. This is why Kenya
Speaker 3: should have never left the cast, because we could have
Speaker 3: seen them duke it out fine, resolve or not watch
Speaker 3: everybody pick sides. We should have just really leaned into
Speaker 3: it instead of interrupting it abruptly like that because we
Speaker 3: all lost out and so.
Speaker 4: The bridge I agree.
Speaker 5: I'm going to first go back to the talk about Phaedra.
Speaker 5: I think Faedra and now will get Faser pops right here,
Speaker 5: so y'all take note when I say something positive too. Okay,
Speaker 5: look look this, Yeah, she's pretty, she's done that. I
Speaker 5: really want to hate them, you one of them. Phadria
Speaker 5: is too smart to fall for that bait. And I
Speaker 5: actually sided too with Fader when they brought up Apollo
Speaker 5: either with poor instructions from the producer or that's all
Speaker 5: brit had. And she was like, I feel myself fading
Speaker 5: in this scene, let me say something to get the
Speaker 5: cameras back on me. That's what it gave. But us
Speaker 5: knowing how reality works, it probably was some direction like, hey,
Speaker 5: we're not hearing from you, say something about port Faedra
Speaker 5: and Fader again. Way too seasoned, I will say, way
Speaker 5: too smart to fall for that. She's not gonna get
Speaker 5: into an apollo thing that was many relationships ago, like
Speaker 5: he's married, she's then moved on with you know, other
Speaker 5: people and all that and so so uh, you know,
Speaker 5: that was never gonna really fly. So it definitely whoever
Speaker 5: gave her that direction, I kind of feel like they
Speaker 5: set Brit up for a little bit of failure in
Speaker 5: that moment. I also feel overall in this show that
Speaker 5: Britt is really in over her head. Maybe she thought
Speaker 5: that she would come play with the girls, you know,
Speaker 5: rent a little ormez purse, go to a dealership and
Speaker 5: show herself buying cars and that would be enough to
Speaker 5: portray this wealthy lifestyle and that would be enough. But
Speaker 5: really it's really not. You can't fake it. Like the
Speaker 5: fans of reality and the commentators are too smart and
Speaker 5: we clock too much. We've seen it all We've seen
Speaker 5: people fake storylines, and the fans can smell a fake
Speaker 5: like a fake existence a mile away. So you're better
Speaker 5: off going in saying I'm trying to get there and
Speaker 5: I'm not. I'm I'm trying to get my line up
Speaker 5: the ground. But she wanted to come in like already,
Speaker 5: so big time established. I'm which I got all this
Speaker 5: going on. Well, guess what the internet salutes are gonna
Speaker 5: do that thing. They're gonna look it up, They're gonna
Speaker 5: find lawsuits, they're gonna find that your business isn't really successful.
Speaker 5: They do it to everyone like you got to know that,
Speaker 5: and I do. I know, I do read her down,
Speaker 5: but I do think they did not do her a
Speaker 5: favor of putting her on the show as a housewife
Speaker 5: out the gate. I think she should have been a
Speaker 5: friend first, get her feet wet, see how things goes.
Speaker 5: Because oh, I also will say this. I know I'm
Speaker 5: getting long winded and I don't want to be that.
Speaker 5: It's very apparent from her times on this show that
Speaker 5: Britt doesn't really have any female friends. She's not a
Speaker 5: girl's girl, because she does feel like she kind of
Speaker 5: she thinks the way to get a moment is to
Speaker 5: just be mean to another girl, like even when she
Speaker 5: was talking to Angela, your husband doesn't even now let
Speaker 5: that Jarrett his wife, And it was so it was
Speaker 5: so much anger in her face. I'm like, why are
Speaker 5: you so happy to tell a woman that her husband
Speaker 5: doesn't claim her and you're a married woman where people
Speaker 5: say you're in a lave at her marriage now saying
Speaker 5: she is, but there's things about her like it doesn't
Speaker 5: seem much she knows valid girl code at all.
Speaker 4: And this is what I mean.
Speaker 3: You're making a great point, Claudia, because this is exactly
Speaker 3: what I be talking about when I say that people
Speaker 3: can not be conflict centered on these shows and expect
Speaker 3: to be successful on an ensemble cast. It's got to
Speaker 3: be more than that, you know what I'm saying, Like,
Speaker 3: you can't just come out of left field with these
Speaker 3: very serious allegations, very dark, taking the show into a
Speaker 3: very dark fucking place, like unnecessarily.
Speaker 4: It just does not add up, It doesn't make sense.
Speaker 3: And that's what happens every time she finds herself in conflict.
Speaker 3: We saw brit do that with Kenya whenever at that
Speaker 3: Bangball dinner, we saw her do it with Angela at
Speaker 3: the Bailey cue for Juneteenth. We saw do it with
Speaker 3: Angela at the Peace brunch that they had. We're seeing
Speaker 3: her do it now, you know it just it's got
Speaker 3: to be more than just that. But before I saw
Speaker 3: brit on the show, when she was announced as cast,
Speaker 3: I was immediately drawn into her look. I thought she
Speaker 3: had a sharp, edgy, you know, personal style that I
Speaker 3: thought would translate really well onto camera on screen. And
Speaker 3: I thought that she was much more confident than the
Speaker 3: way I'm seeing her show up in these scenes on camera.
Speaker 3: It almost looks like she's fearful of being disliked in
Speaker 3: the aftermath or in the wake of what happened with
Speaker 3: Kenya's departure. So she's walking on eggshells with these ladies
Speaker 3: and not really. I don't know what the deal is,
Speaker 3: but there's a disconnect there, And I just wish that
Speaker 3: she was a little bit more confident and a little
Speaker 3: bit more transparent on this cast because aesthetically.
Speaker 5: And when we when Kelly said that Drew had beef
Speaker 5: with everybody, really it's really Britt that has had beef
Speaker 5: with everybody there. If you think about it, She's yelled
Speaker 5: at Angela she's mad at like she's the one. That's
Speaker 5: why I've been popping off with everyone, and I think
Speaker 5: she thinks that's the way to be relevant, Like let
Speaker 5: me argue with people so I can be ready. You know,
Speaker 5: I can get to read and be on the blogs
Speaker 5: for that week. But that's fine. We do need a
Speaker 5: good read on these shows. But it has to be
Speaker 5: rooted in, like the stake's got to be there, like
Speaker 5: the stakes like a friend that you have to kind
Speaker 5: of get together. We care about that, but not you
Speaker 5: just come in hot. That's why I don't like what
Speaker 5: Fat is doing now, coming in hot against people you
Speaker 5: don't even know yet and you haven't had one scene yet.
Speaker 5: It doesn't make sense. And that's what britsmane doing her
Speaker 5: entire time on Housewives.
Speaker 2: I think, yeah, yeah, yeah, no, I listen. I agree,
Speaker 2: And we have again two or three more.
Speaker 1: Episodes left when it comes to this season, and look,
Speaker 1: I'm just happy that we get to like in with
Speaker 1: the storyline that I felt dragged a little bit too long,
Speaker 1: and I think the girls probably felt the same way too.
Speaker 2: In hindsight, right in hindsight, looking on it, like.
Speaker 1: Okay, I forgot I brought this up again for a
Speaker 1: whole nother week.
Speaker 2: So I am looking forward to the reunion. I think
Speaker 2: it's gonna be a very fun, shady one. Andy did
Speaker 2: tweet he wanted people people.
Speaker 1: To submit questions, which means it is happening very soon.
Speaker 1: A lot of people are saying allegedly it is happening
Speaker 1: this week. But I will say I'm looking forward to this.
Speaker 5: Is gonna be just like more of the mean shit,
Speaker 5: like mean when it's warranted, right when someone did something
Speaker 5: really horrible to you, they'd be a reason to be
Speaker 5: mean back, but not just coming in and just talking shit.
Speaker 5: And I will say this, and I think I saw
Speaker 5: comment about this. Honestly, I feel like Cynthia deserves a
Speaker 5: peach on this season way more than Phaedra. Cynthia was
Speaker 5: the glue. Cynthia was great in getting people to talk
Speaker 5: and open up. She had a great moment with py Hey,
Speaker 5: you guys, mark this another moment. I'm anna say something
Speaker 5: nice about Porsche. There was a great scene with Cynthia
Speaker 5: and Porsche where they were talking and I feel they
Speaker 5: felt like Cynthia really got through to her, and it
Speaker 5: really to me, knowing what I know from what I
Speaker 5: you know when I used to talk to Cynthia about
Speaker 5: this all the time, how far they've come from when
Speaker 5: they had an actual physical altercation showing real growth between
Speaker 5: Porsche and Cynthia. Again, hey saying something positive. I thought
Speaker 5: that was beautiful, right, And so I feel like Cynthia
Speaker 5: has definitely earned it more than a Phaedra and at
Speaker 5: this point even brit because Cynthia has been the glue
Speaker 5: and been a voice or reason and has you know,
Speaker 5: provided I think more than two of the others.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Cynthia did her damn thing this season, for real.
Speaker 3: She was an incredible friend of the show. Peachworthy for sure.
Speaker 4: Yep, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1: And again, I I'll end by saying this, if you
Speaker 1: are a former housewife, especially if you are an OG,
Speaker 1: and I'm sorry, guys, OG means you have to have
Speaker 1: started see than one.
Speaker 2: You're not a You could be a legacy. You could
Speaker 2: be what you're not, a VET thank you.
Speaker 1: Legacy or a vet OG's meet season one, So stop
Speaker 1: over using OG, ohky digress. If you are an OG
Speaker 1: housewife and your acts back to appear on the show,
Speaker 1: my advice to you is follow the Cynthia Billy blueprint
Speaker 1: and be a friend be a friend's And the reason
Speaker 1: why I will say more to the ogs because when
Speaker 1: they started Housewives season one, it was a very different time.
Speaker 1: It was a very different time, and those girls gave
Speaker 1: everything that they could to the show, and I think rightfully,
Speaker 1: so rightfully, so they just don't they're not in that
Speaker 1: same hit space to give to give the same amount
Speaker 1: and and and do you think there.
Speaker 5: A lot of the I'm sorry to cut you off.
Speaker 5: Do you think some of that comes from like back
Speaker 5: when it first started, right, blogs and commentary wasn't as
Speaker 5: big as it is now. So now people are editing
Speaker 5: what they would do now normally with well, on the blogs,
Speaker 5: they ready for this, so let me adjust as before
Speaker 5: they just lived their life and they were more authentic.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, look, well about the percent. I said this
Speaker 1: at nauseum and I'm never going to change this. Social
Speaker 1: media killed the reality star.
Speaker 2: And when I say that, it's gone.
Speaker 1: Are the days of a reality star coming on the show,
Speaker 1: not already having glam set their looks, not already meeting
Speaker 1: with hiring a publicist.
Speaker 2: I met somebody. I'm not gonna say who, so don't
Speaker 2: ask me messy rain drops.
Speaker 1: I met somebody before the show started and they said
Speaker 1: to me, I'm the publicist of so and so, not.
Speaker 5: A publicist before you even get on air.
Speaker 6: I I'm not gonna say what show was called, darnge.
Speaker 5: I want to know who it is, and am a journalist.
Speaker 5: It's my job to try to.
Speaker 1: Get to.
Speaker 2: I'm not gonna say who. But I remember saying.
Speaker 1: Take advantage against when you spend money you don't really have. No,
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna but I'm not gonna say don't spend
Speaker 1: money that you don't have. But if you do, got
Speaker 1: the money, girl, do what you want to do, child, right,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna answer you second camera. So the thing is
Speaker 1: this take advantage of the network publicist, who whose job
Speaker 1: that the network is paying them to publicize you? So
Speaker 1: social media because a lot of these girls come in
Speaker 1: wanting to be this person of feeling like I know
Speaker 1: the audience wants this and and I and and it
Speaker 1: makes me sad. It's the reason why I really don't
Speaker 1: watch as much reality TV as I used to, because
Speaker 1: I can spot a fake. It's hard for me to
Speaker 1: watch these shows with these new girls. Not I'm talking
Speaker 1: about Lanta, I'm talking about just the general population of
Speaker 1: reality television. These new girls come in, they study the format,
Speaker 1: and you should always study any job you have, but
Speaker 1: study the fact that they were themselves. Don't come in
Speaker 1: trying to be this person. Don't come in trying to
Speaker 1: be that person. And once the show airs, they cater
Speaker 1: to the social.
Speaker 2: Media fans who love them.
Speaker 1: And it's great to have fans, but also no, you
Speaker 1: can't live or die by the fans because they'll love
Speaker 1: you one episode.
Speaker 2: We see it with Shemiah.
Speaker 1: A lot of people love Shamia the first couple of weeks,
Speaker 1: and now people are saying Samiah, bye girl, and that's just.
Speaker 2: You are so.
Speaker 6: Person.
Speaker 4: No, I think it was look Carlos, but it would
Speaker 4: have been her.
Speaker 5: Hey, Rangels, who do you think it was?
Speaker 1: I do think it was I have done anyway. But Claudia
Speaker 1: is fucking hilarious. Okay, answer this question, Carlos, you our producer.
Speaker 1: If Kenya was under reunion, what would you think? Claudia
Speaker 1: doesn't answer this too, Okay, I'll start first. I strongly
Speaker 1: feel that kenya story has yet to be told fully,
Speaker 1: and as a vet that she is, I would love
Speaker 1: to see her and Brent have a conversation.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Kenya needs to be on that reunion. That is
Speaker 3: a huge opportunity to hope Bravo and the powers that
Speaker 3: be take advantage of without a doubt, without questioning, ken
Speaker 3: you should be on that reunion. We want to see
Speaker 3: what she has to say. We want to see her
Speaker 3: and brit talk about that shit. We want to see
Speaker 3: her talk about it with the cast. There's no way
Speaker 3: that she should not be at this reunion in my opinion,
Speaker 3: and they should not tease it. They shouldn't even put
Speaker 3: it in the trailer for that motherfucker. Just let her
Speaker 3: walk out in part whatever of the reunion and let.
Speaker 4: Them ladies do what they do.
Speaker 3: She ken If y'all are listening, Kenya Moore needs to
Speaker 3: come onto their reunion stage at some point, and I
Speaker 3: really hope it's not too much.
Speaker 5: I don't think she will not because then I think
Speaker 5: they won't ask her because of maybe legalities. But I
Speaker 5: think I agree with both of you. I think it
Speaker 5: would actually offer us a great segue and opportunity to
Speaker 5: get her back on form next season. And for the
Speaker 5: people that say, oh, the ratings, the ratings are not
Speaker 5: what they used to be and they're slipping and Phaji
Speaker 5: when she came back to not return to bring the
Speaker 5: ratings they thought listen are different now it's a different
Speaker 5: time with video on demand, right, But there is no
Speaker 5: there is a no, there's no way in the world
Speaker 5: that Kenya coming back to the union. Letty, let Kenya
Speaker 5: and Britt now touch each other, but have it out
Speaker 5: and resolve it in front of us. Have a moment
Speaker 5: of like like Black Girl magic where they hug it
Speaker 5: out and guess what it's set up for next year
Speaker 5: and then we can see what is going to be.
Speaker 5: Can you imagine like it would actually gives Britt a
Speaker 5: chance to be an actual housewife and have a story.
