HOT Mess of the Week: Renee's Dad Got Pinched!!


Hey Bleeples!! Miss me?! IKR. Well, as the title suggests, you can prolly find Renee in her kitchen schlepped over her countertop! Her precious jailbird dad is at it again. According to msnbc.com, he is being charged with racketeering in NYC. I know you aren't surprised, I mean the show is called Mob Wives not Law Abiding Citizens' Wives. And this is why she's the coveted and missed Hot Mess of the Week (HMOW). Here's an excerpt:
"NEW YORK CITY -- DEA and FBI agents arrested four alleged members of the Bonanno organized crime family early Friday on charges that include racketeering, gambling and drug sales, NBC New York has learned. The father of a "Mob Wives" reality show star was also charged in the federal case.Vincent Badalamenti, identified as a member of the Bonanno crime family administration, Nicholas Santora, a Bonanno family capo, Vito Balsamo, an acting captain, and Anthony Calabrese, a soldier, were arrested Friday and are are charged with racketeering, extortion, illegal gambling, and conspiracy to distribute marijuana, a law enforcement official said.Anthony Graziano -- a Bonanno family captain whose daughter Renee Graziano stars on the reality show "Mob Wives" -- was also charged. Graziano was already in custody on a prior conviction."
Poor Renee can never catch a break....I gotta get on the phone and call up Lexi to hear her thoughts on Renee's family foolery...so I'll get up with youse guys tomorrow for a long awaited update on all things LAHH. 'Til next time....

YOUSE Guys Betta Clean Up Your Crumbs!


Well, last Sunday's "Mob Wives" was very entertaining. So, here's where I stand with the ladies: Renee is still on my good side. Karen is kinda coming out of her shell this season, which I like. Drita is still talking about how much she fights but not backing it up. I like Drita, but c'mon! She needs to deck someone before her 15 minutes are up! Carla is still a filler. Womp womp. Ramona is a shit-stirrer, but she's just what this show needed! I like how no matter what she's loyal to her BFF, Karen. Big Ang...well, we'll call her a lady for right now.....she seems like she's been used her entire life. Big Ang is probably a bar maid for a bunch of mobsters who give her bars to run because they know she'll shut up as long as they buy her stuff. There is nothing about her that says "businesswoman" or "bartender"!

As for the show's events, I was tired of hearing Karen talk about pussy! Really, Karen??? I drop a few f-bombs myself and have a potty mouth, but a lady constantly saying "pussy" is just gross. Clean it up, girl! I felt like Renee cuz I wasn't prepared for Karen's Drita comments either!

Also, the trip to Big Ang's bar was a mess. We heard another story of how Drita used to fight. I'm tired of everyone cosigning Drita's stories when she's not wrecking anything on the show!

The whole Renee/Junior reunion is kinda cute because they've realized that they are the only two people on Earth who can tolerate each other's bullshit. It's kinda cute considering that they just put all of their mess out for the world, while 99% of other people in relationships hide theirs. Ha!

Ramona can't convince me that she had no idea her boyfriend was in the Mob or selling drugs. Listen, if these men live in Staten Island with no college degrees, chances are they're rolling in ILLEGAL dough. The things some women will look past for a little Louis Vuitton. Ramona, those LV bags can't carry your pride, sweetie. Just saying.

Also, this little dude Derek is getting on my nerves. I think he needs to step away from this show because he really is irrelevant. You broke up a Drita/Karen fight. Okay. We don't wanna see you anymore. We really just want to hear more about Drita's Lee drama or see another fight between her and Karen. Derek, you're voted off the island. Staten Island, that is.

But this week there were TWO best moments: 1. Big Ang telling her son that she's dating a man who just got out of jail for murder. He did 28 years for it! And they both agreed that that didn't make him a bad guy!!!!!! ROTFLMAO!!!!! And then this criminal is giving her a pomeranian puppy. Now, murderers buying dogs is funny, but a woman thinking a murderer is sweet for it is even funnier! ROTFLMAO!! Oh, Big Ang!! : D

2. RENEE AND THE CRUMBS!!!! How epic was that?!?!?!?! I mean, she actually scared the kids by telling them to shut up and acting so irrational. The look on Ramona's daughter's face was EPIC! LMAO!! I think it was even funnier that she got upset about them not empathizing with her over the crumbs. ROTFLMAO!! I swear, Renee is the star of this show! It's showing more this season than last!

Team Renee!!!! : )

Until Sunday....

I'mma Wait For U Outside!

How goes it good bleeples?! This week's installment of LAHH had ya girl a lil' flustered. Hence, it took me a minute to let you guys in on the rachetry! Nonetheless, there is foolishness to discuss. Without further adieu....
 
 
 
It was post re-engagement for Chrissy and Jimmy this week. Last week, we saw Jimmy hand Chrissy a box and let her basically propose to herself. This go 'round we got a little back story on how Jimmy went about asking Chrissy the question she already asked him last year. There's no doubt about it. Jimmy loves Chrissy. He gushed on and on about how she's stuck with him yada yada yada. We get it. My question now is....why re-propose? Shouldn't ya just marry her if you love her so much? But, what do I know, right? Jimmy went thru the trouble to organize a Proposal afterparty with all of their closest family and friends. That was really nice. Although, I don't recall seeing Aunt Cookie or Uncle Ralph in the background. They spearheaded this whole thing. PS shoutout to Mama Jones who still managed to throw some shade at the party. "We'll see where this goes on down the line 20, 30 years from now". Co- and sign on that, Mama Jones.
 
 
 
Olivia wasn't kidding when she said she had a job in Miami. But, before she could do it, we saw her manager, Rich, talking business with Rico Love. Rico is a major music producer who has done work with the likes of P. Diddy and Beyonce. He is currently dabbling in the Teairra Mari basket. He explained this to Rich letting him know that he would help write a hit record for Olivia after he made sure to give our favorite teeny tiny one hit wonder and 2nd hit. So, since we'll all be dead by the time this happens, I'll move on. Everybody knows Olivia's career is DOA. Luther Vandross could come back from the dead and sing for this heffa and she'd STILL lose. Her performance at that club went aiight. Karaoke night is a success again!
 
 
 
Conversely, I told y'all we couldn't trust that little nosy girl, Teairra. She totally hated on Rico Love helping Olivia with anything. She claims she's just watching out for herself. But, hasn't her whole stance on the show been to help people and bring everyone together? Those art naught the words of a hater.
 
 
 
Emily still crying over Fab. She's with him....she cries. She's without him....she cries. I. Can. Not.
 
 
 
Meanwhile, in Yandy and Kimbella's world, there is always drama a'brewin! We got to meet Kimbella's mama. And oh boy was her hair as red as a Chucky doll or was it just me? I think Kimb, Draya, and all the other pretty video vixens of the world got some odd looking mamas....like they got 'em from the same factory. Kim and moms had to work out some of Kimb's childhood frustrations. Basically, its Kimb's mom's fault she's a hoe. Be sorry, moms. Yandy was determined to bring about peace between Kimby and Erica (Mena) since that fight they'd had an episode ago. The ladies hashed out their differences in a very mature manner. They exchanged video hoe chronicles and came to a bit of a happy medium....for now. It wasn't until later into the Miami trip that the real drama started...
 
 
 
Erica and Olivia were hosting a party at some Miami club so I don't know why Chrissy acted surprised to see Erica, Kimbella, or Yandy walk in. I can see it being strange that Kimb and Erica were getting along, but c'mon now. Chrissy wasted no time getting right down to the Yandy drama. Apparently, Yandy's email to Jimmy about quitting involved some comments about Jimmy lacing Chrissy with shoes and bags, etc. Chrissy didn't care for that citing that those items are none of Yan's concern. BUT, if you recall a blog or two ago, I told you guys that there has got to be more to this Yandy-Jimmy-Chrissy thing than just a book or dancing to Mama Jones' song. I suspect that Jimmy and Yandy have been involved way past a manager-client relationship. Only scorned women confront a man on buying other women things. That's personal. A professional couldn't care less what a client purchased let alone for whom. That said, it might not be so difficult to see where all this aggression comes from when Chrissy goes charging at Yandy in the club. It was mostly just words exchanged...I didn't see any actual punches thrown or caught. Miss Chrissy decided she wasn't done with the whole deal so she waited for Yan outside AFTER she called and cried to Jimmy all about it. vH1 made it clear they didn't want no foolishness and carted Yandy outta there faster than an envelope with anthrax in it. As far as fights go, I'd say it fizzled.
 
 
 
Next, the lines get drawn among the ladies, are you TEAMChrissy or TEAMYandy. Also, things are just heating up between Kimbella and Erica! PS Somaya's back.... 'Til then....

Mob Wives: "Hell on Heels"?? Satan, You Showed Your A$$ This Sunday!

Well, my favorite show, MOB WIVES, is back!! Sorry that I missed last week, but I'm a busy girl...what can I say?

But as for last night's episode, it was appropriately titled "Hell on Heels". That's exactly what it was! The Albanian slugger Drita once again started a fight that she wasn't able to finish. She threw a mean right hook at Karen, but Sammy's daughter dodged that hit and came back with a punch that left Drita's eye black and bloodshot! I don't get why Drita keeps bragging about how well she can fight. I think she's just a chick who has had a luck streak when it comes to hitting someone hard enough the first time so there's no fight. In an actual fight, she sucks ass! Just saying!

And Ramona, I really like her! I think all women need that one loyal friend in their life who will have their back no matter what. So, call me crazy, but I love that she jumped in that fight to help Karen. Drita should not have been swinging!

For all the Ramona haters, y'all have to admit that she knows how to shit-stir like no other! LOL! Hell, I was ready to beat Derek's ass from my couch and I didn't know who he was or where he went....NOR WAS I AT THE SCENE! LMAO!!

I will say though that I nearly died from laughter while watching Drita cry and claim she was set up. BITCH, YOU ARE NOT TUPAC!!! ROTFLMAO! No one is coming for Drita bad enough to set her up, least of all Renee! I think Drita needs a "tough girl" moment at all times, so she can have it. Whatever. *eye roll*

Let's move away from that subject and discuss the other new Mob Wife, Big Ang. Now, I am truly confused when it comes to Big Ang. I mean, is Big Ang a man or a woman? And why am I even asking that when it looks like a duck and quacks like a duck so it must be...a man?? ROTFLMAO! I'm looking forward to hearing Big Ang's story just because I need to know what man actually dated her or married her.

Renee, Renee, Renee. I have a soft spot in my heart for Renee because she and I both love the nice things and are loyal as hell! So, I feel like she has a right, and my blessing, to beat all of their asses for ruining her party! LOL! When you're like me and Renee, you don't take too well to people messing up happy atmospheres that you try to create. She spent her night running in Jimmy Choo's to stop fights that had nothing to do with her! You would almost think that NO ONE came there to actually celebrate her birthday! But....the Junior situation is a little weird to me. I don't buy that he's changed. I believe he's just getting scared because he's going to jail and is realizing all of his mistakes. I hope Renee treads lightly with him.

But for real, why is that bitch Carla even on the damn show?! Her ole scary ass is always hearing shit secondhand and having an opinion! She heard about the fight at Renee's party and was calling everybody and their mamas to find out what happened, yet she couldn't call everyone multiple times to check on Renee after her surgery?? She only called Renee once! I'm over Carla. She's swimming with the fishes as far as reality TV is concerned.

Until next week!!

They NEVER learn! Teen Mom 2's Leah strikes again!


Well, bleeps, it's confirmed. Teen Mom 2's Leah Messer is pregnant again! She and her new fiance, Jeremy Calvert, have been busy making another baby. I guess they forgot about the 2 mouths she's been feeding via MTV for the last couple years. In this interview on MSN's Wonderwall, Leah stated the following:
""We have a really good connection," she gushed. "It's different from Corey and my relationship, because we were kinda like forcing it. ... With Jeremy, you know when you're supposed to be with somebody and you're not."
Sounds like she's drinking the Teen Mom Stupid Juice. These hoes are all the same and they never learn the lessons we're all supposed to from this show. Now, all we can hope for is that this baby's optic nerve is normal unlike one of Leah's other offspring. They still haven't figured out what's wrong with her....Alas.
'Til next time....

Aye, So You Wanna Marry Me, Right?

What's good, bleeples. I'll tell you. Chrissy Lampkin is good....at least for now. Love & Hip Hop didn't disappoint this week with the rachet-assedness. Let's not waste anymore time and get right to the foolishness....
 
 
 
Teiarra Marie is still waving her nosey little head. She and Kimbella met up to discuss the aftermath of that hair brawl Kimby and Erica were involved in on last week's episode. Kimby explained to Teeny (T. Marie's new nickname) that those comments Erica made about Juelz being with other women just wasn't gonna fly. She also shared with us that her mom was one of those females who put up with anything from her man (aka Kimb's dad) as he had cheated with and had families with other women. Kimb declared that she would never be one of these females, but she neglected to decline being one of those females who cheat with the fool (ergo, the Fab situation). Yah, in summary, she can skip me with that bull ish. Teeny claimed she understood where Kimb was coming from, but she still scolded Kimb on her behavior. I got a question. Where in the hell did this lil' one hit wonder get the stones to be in folks business like that?! She makes my nose hairs disintegrate.
 
 
 
Meanwhile, in Yandy's world, Mama Jones and she had to have a talk after Mama Jones' meeting with Chrissy. Chrissy informed Mrs. Nancy and anybody else who would listen that Yandy had given her a book dedicated to better behavior for daughters-in-law. Chrissy expressed disgust in the book and made sure to force that feeling upon anybody listening to her talk about it. Personally, I didn't think the book was that bad. It seemed to me like somewhat of a joke. But, alas, Mama Jones wasn't too keen on the book either and let Yandy know about it. This move sparked a snowball effect of Yandy breaking away from Jimmy as her brother/client for good. There was alot going on with Ms. Yandy this week. From having a heart to heart with Kimbella on their deadbeat dads to passing off potential clients to other entertainment managers, Ms. Thing was busy. She tried to pass Erica off on Rich Dollaz. I think he's gonna bite, but he's not going to be managing her singing. This heffa couldn't sing the Itsy Bitsy Spider for me. Her voice is CRAP. She had the nerve to say she has a vocal coach who is helping her perfect her "craft". Here's a thought: Kill yo' self. I like that better. ...Not only did Yandy have a heart to heart with Kimbella, she met with Juelz as well. She felt like he would have some good advice on how to deal with the whole Jim scenario. Her ultimate decision was to let him go as a client seeing as how he's stopped answering her calls and just won't act right. What a shame. I mean it ain't like "Ballin'" is still on the Top 100 on iTunes. How has he been maintaining other than Yandy's help? He hasn't. That's how. Hope Chrissy knows what she's doing. She has no income.
 
 
 
Emily didn't have too much action going so we ain't really gotta talk about her. As for Somaya, even she acknowledged on Twitter Monday night that she hasn't seen too much of herself on this season. Fans were tweeting her saying, "you gonna be on #LoveAndHipHop this week?". Her reply, "IDK, doubt it." That's some crap. vH1 needs to start being held accountable for asking these folks on then just dropping them to fit someone less entertaining in....I mean, Teiarra Marie? Sir.
 
 
 
Olivia broke the news to the ladies on a shopping excursion that she had a fun-filled work weekend in Miami coming up. This was the perfect opportunity for the ladies to get away from the perils of NYC or should I say Jersey cuz that's where all these hoes actually reside. Chrissy took this opportunity and ran. She and Jimmy had a little argument one morning about his participation in their relationship as it were. He doesn't think he's doing anything wrong, but Chrissy is fed up beyond fed up with his marriage dodging ways. Thus, she ran to the MIA to get away from him and lie to the girls about how she's leaving him. Needless to say, Jimmy showed up. He was very nervous. I could tell. So, he turned the whole scene into somewhat of an argument and then showed Chrissy the box. He placed it in her hand, and she proposed to herself. She instructed him to place the ring on her finger. The job was done. She can shut up now for the next year. Might I add that last week I predicted he would do this and I also said it wouldn't be sweet cuz she already proposed. Ok, just wanted to remind you. Now if he had've brought a Justice of the Peace, he would've floored me.
 
 
 
Next week, it goes down with Chrissy and Yandy. Finally! I might even go down with Kimbella and Erica again. 'Til next time....
