I'm Still Alive, I Promise!!

Hi, everyone!

It's Lexi. I know I've been MIA lately, but I've been working really hard on several things. That's the life of a young blogger these days, right??

So, just wanted to touch base with you all and QUICKLY update you with some thoughts and what to expect next from RFR!

First, I'm Team Teresa, y'all! Melissa and Kathy got on my nerves during last week's reunion (part 1). Plus, Caroline is a miserable geriatric, and Jacqueline needs to spend more time worrying about her family instead of Teresa. Why is it that she knows everything about Teresa's life?? Bored much, J?! Plus, Lauren is still fat. LAP-BAND was never something I thought highly off anyway because my mother had it and is still overweight....4 years later. So, expect Lauren to stay fat, people!

Also, I will be returning to blog about various reality news and RHOA, and expect to see an RFR Twitter account soon! Christina and I live far apart, but we love TV and you guys too much to not find another way to stay busy keeping you informed and entertained!

Oh! RFR has been around for a year as of this past July! Thanks for the love, guys! We appreciate it, and we hope to be around for many more years!

xoxoxoxo,

Lexi : )

It's So Hard to Say Goodbye to She by Sheree....

 NOT! Hey Bleeples?! I know you are as geeked as I am about this epic RHOA reunion. Leggo!!!

Cynthia Bailey-Thomas tried to solidify her spot on next season's roster. She and her milk dud yelled and screamed and yelled some more. Peter is a douche. What's worse...he's an old douche. Stop with the young lingo, dude. I bet he watches 106th and Park to keep up. Anybody hear him say Papa Smurf banking? Not according to my tv screen. It is not cute. He never acknowledged how rude he's been to Mal, and Cynthia continues to allow his bafoonery. This is why I laugh when she tries to step up to the plate with Kim or any other cast mate. Girl, bye?! You have not one leg to stand on. When asked what she's doing now since the show wrapped, she responded that she still owns the Bailey Agency and is Noelle's mom. Uh, DUH!! Who else would own it? I mean really.

Kandi provided slayings all around for these women. She served all kinds of shade starting with Sheree and ending with Marlo. I loved her telling Marlo it don't matter how many people she takes care of with HER money. I need for Marlo to remember that Kandi made hers while Marlo earns. There is a BIG difference. If you don't know, inbox me boo. Sheree had to eat her words about the Africa trip after Andy rolled the tape back. Kandi still went in though. She held her own. The only thing I didn't like was that she attempted explaining herself to Marlo. She is beneath. Forever and Always.

Kim sporting these jugs on national tv.....I can't ladies and gents. I just can't. It's almost equivalent to Lil' Kim's pasties. It's so unfair to the eyes. In other news, you know you've fallen off when Marlo can call you a whore and you barely retort. I mean, Marlo is an escort for God's sake. She is a paid date/nightcap. She shan't not be calling nobody a whore. I can't really stand Kim. So, talking about her is difficult. But, I would like mention that in a couple years when her uterus dries she will have a reality show called "The Ring Didn't Mean A Thing" to which I will watch and blog.

Phaedra and her husband are still planning foolishness. I found it a slight insensitive when she suggested that she got into the funeral business after a friend committed suicide. The disregard and excitement she shows for death doesn't suggest sorrow for her friend at all. Not in good southern taste, Mrs. Phaedra. Paula Deen would disapprove.

Andy threw a little more shade quietly as he saw Mrs. Sheree Whitfield off the show with her own montage of antics over the years. Don't be tardy for that failure! Oh oh.

Finally, NeNe talked about 97% of the show. If I have to hear she is on the show Glee one more time?! We know. While I find NeNe hilarious, I am over her foolishness most of the time too. She stays bragging about her successes, but if someone else succeeds it's all she wrote. I thought that scene with Andy showcasing Kim and NeNe's life switcharoo was tired. Sorry, Andy. Stop trying to make them be friends. It's not hot.

Welp, that's it for these ladies until next year. It's back to the Jersey!! 'Til then....

xoxo, Christina Rose

Let's all go to NEVERland...

Hey there, bleeps and bleepettes! It's been a long time coming, but here goes on this season of RHOA and the reunion show thus far.

It's official. NeNe Leakes is queen of the world....at least in her own head. This woman is consumed with self and mad at anybody that ain't her achieving anything. From the looks on her face to crossing her eyes on cue, anything Andy Cohen says to congratulate the other ladies on their ventures gets a response. Her best moment for me this season?? Dubbing Chateau Sheree as neverland....could NOT be more appropriate.

Sheree has been acting up and creating fake drama all season. First, she recruited Phaedra to help with her legal matters just to end up calling her a bad lawyer. Bob still ain't paying this heffa child support. By the looks of things, he won't be. Ah well!! Chateau Sheree never got off the ground. I mean that's all it is is GROUND!!! She claims the construction team misappropriated funds, but my guess is there were no funds to appropriate at all. Then, she tried throwing Kandi under the bus with the Africa trip by reporting back to Kim that Kandi called her a racist. That went extremely well. It ended with Kim and Kandi still being friends and Sheree looking the same stupid she always looks. Finally, she talked her oldest (and recently claimed) daughter right out of an engagement ring. I predict that being the final straw in Bravo's back and why Andy Cohen gave ol' girl the boot. At least if her daughter was getting married, she'd have a leg to stand on. Enough's enough. RIP to She by SherFAIL. *SN: did you hear she wrote a letter claiming she quit?? what a riot.*

Kandi is on fire this season. She's worked with Jo Dee Messina, created her own sex toy line, and obtained her own Bravo! show called the Kandi Factory. I'm not really feeling her show, but she seems to be getting a positive vibe from other viewers. She's been telling it like it is all season. I loved her telling Sheree off and getting Marlo together as well. Marlo is not an official housewife, and, thus, does not get her own paragraph, but I love how she walked right in and thought she'd fool us all into thinking she's hot stuff and NOT an escort. Bish boo bye!!!

Phaedra has proven herself to be a little more than I thought. So, I hate her less this season. She ain't all the way screwed too tight, but she's alright. Yep, I said it. I don't get the over the top christenings and such, but she's a smart cookie and doesn't entertain these women's antics. I love it.

Kim gets nothing. She's a money chasing, non-singing, hating ass, lying heffa. She is leasing, autotuning, staying pregnant, and sitting on Big Papa's furnishings. Straight UP!

The final installment of the reunion is this Sunday so tune in. Feel free to chime in. Until then....

xoxo, Christina Rose

It's Almost Over...

Hey Bloves! This season of RHOA is about to wrap up. And what a season it has been?! Or not. Was it me or was Atlanta a snooze? Other than Africa and Ri-DICK-ulous....I can't think of any one moment that was epic or made me sad that the season is over...Alas, let's discuss last week's epp shall we?

NeNe's gone hollywood. No surprise there. She's been showing up all over the tube from BET's The Game to Fox's Glee. Congratulations to her on that. However, I must address the comment she made regarding obtaining an Oscar. The day NeNe Leakes gets an Oscar is the day I stop respecting the Academy. Just sayin'. PS was it me or did that scene with Steve Harvey, his wife, and Keshia Knight-Pulliam seem a leetle staged? Ok. It was me I guess. Ms. NeNe is mulling over the idea of moving her son, Brent, to LA with her to pursue acting. I say leave that boy with his daddy. She'll be back soon enough.

Kandi isn't up to much. She's up to her usual with the sex toys. Her "Bedroom Kandi" line is well underway. Her signature "Happiness & Joy" and "Clit-stick" look to be winners...at least for Kandi....on to the next.

Phaedra was being her normal "funeral obsessed" self. She, Willie Watkins, and friends have become quite close. She completed one of her last training tasks on the show in which she assisted a grieving family with the final preparations for their home-going service. Good thing it was a mock family. Phaedra went a little overboard helping them choose caskets like people shop for cars. She invited the entire crew to her, I mean, Willie's event to make a special announcement. I don't think anyone was surprised or delighted to hear that she and Willie are going into business.

Kim and Cynthia's little lunch was cute. Not. I don't feel they resolved anything. They spent the entire time being nice nasty to one another and agreed to be fake from now on. Problem solved. In other news, Kim finally displayed the 10-carat rock her jock boo, Kroy, purchased her. To top that off she snuck out in the middle of Phaedra's boring funeral event to request Sheree as a bridesmaid for her wedding. Perhaps I lack political correctness, but, um, after a certain age the title "bridesmaid" should not be one you take on. Whatever Sheree's age, she qualifies. She should be a guest and that's all. Besides, Kim is almost too old to have any bridesmaids at all. Alright, I'll stop now.

Looks like the finale is going to finish out this lackluster season with a even more boring end. But, there is a bright side. As my cohort, Lexi, mentioned earlier, word is Sheree Whitfield has been let go from the RHOA family. That's a win for the streets considering "snitches get stitches" and all. Sheree's story has been flatlining for a while now. I mean, first, She by Sheree fizzled. Then, Chateau Sheree never got off the ground. Bob beat her and a trained lawyer at the money game, and her son sleeps on an air mattress. That is the furthest from the affluent life Andy Cohen means to exploit on these "housewives" shows. Oh well. RIP to Sheree's last paycheck.

Tune in tonight for the finale. I will. 'Til next time....

Spectacles and Very Old Testicles

Hey, Bloves! Hope all is well....which is the total opposite of everything going on in Atlanta with these housewives....

I'll begin with NeNe who has legal matters to pursue these days with her son, Bryson. As you all know the "rich" housewife's offspring has come down with a case of sticky fingaz. He was held at the county jail for stealing a set of razors from the WalMart. Don't even get me started. I ain't never met a rich person who steals hygienic items. Greg, NeNe's estranged hubby, showed up to give a good talking-to to Bryce. I'm sure that will defintely save him from another trip over to county. *Side eyes*

In other news, Cynthia and Peter are still balling on a budget. This go-round they've planned a million-dollar anniversary party on a $20 budget. Peter hired planners, limo drivers, etc. Oh, and get this....the party is black tie. Blech. Then, Papa smurf's rude ass decided to shun Cynthia's sister, Mal, from taking part in the fabulous limo ride. But, I believe in karma, and it rang true because the limo never even showed. You could see Peter's carotid artery as he yelled at the limo driver when he admitted he was not coming. That's what Peter's slumming behind gets. And Cynthia for cosigning.

The party didn't go well to boot. Too many things happened. Kandi showed up in a club dress with Lady Gaga shoulders. Marlo showed up with another one of her old, white sugar daddies. NeNe flashed her goodies all in front of Petey and his friends. Sheree snitched on Marlo to Miss Lawrence for calling gays the "F" word. They even had to step aside to have this conversation. So, I have a couple questions. Maybe you can help. Who is Miss Lawrence? Why is he so important that Marlo has to explain herself? Why is Sheree suddenly a tape recorder liable to repeat anything you say past 2 syllables? Is Andy Cohen threatening to boot her from the show like he did Lisa and DeShawn? (I bet you don't even remember DeShawn Snow, do ya?) I'll wait for your answers to these burning questions.

All in all, Peter (not Mal) is the one who made a spectacle of that party. Although, Cynthia would tell another story. Mal was right to storm out after Peter called her a hater and embarrassed her in front of an entire crowd. I'd be willing to bet this party's budget that Cynthia and Peter won't make another year, and she'll be wishing she woulda just let Leon have it.

'Til next time.....

Reality For Real Update

Hey Bleeples! I just dropped in to share some foolery that came my way lately on some of our favorite celebrealities! Word on the street is Chrissy Lampkin of Love & Hip Hop is preggers! According to the blogosphere and The Rickey Smiley Morning Show's Gary wit da Tea, the future never Mrs. Jim Jones is carrying his seed! Looks like Mama Jones gets the grandbaby she always wanted.

 

The Real Housewives of Atlanta's Kandi Burruss and Kim Zolciak Biermann are both rumored to have their own new reality shows respectively. Andy Cohen has supposedly recruited Keshia Knight Pulliam (Rudy on The Cosby Show) to replace Kandi and is looking for a spunky, Anglo socialite to replace the wig specialist. My opinion: Fail. Keshia doesn't seem like the reality show kind. PS I don't want anything to do with a show all about Kandi. Sorry.

 

Soul Train isn't a reality show, but its long time host, Don Cornelius was found dead. The police are reporting the cause of death as a self-inflicted gun shot wound to the head. The word around the entertainment circuit is that it wasn't suicide but was staged as such. You be the judge.

 

I'd love for you guys to chime and put me on to some stuff I may be overlooking that I definitely shouldn't. You're my peeps! 'Til next time...

Real Drama for the Real Housewives, Again!!!

Hey Bleeples, welp, guess who's at it again?! You guessed it. Teresa and Joe Guidice just can't stay out of the spotlight...even if it is from the coppers!!! According to MSN's WonderWall, Joe has been indicted on fraud charges. See below...

 

 

 

"Joe Giudice, the husband of "The Real Housewives of New Jersey" star Teresa Giudice, was indicted by a New Jersey grand jury on Tuesday on charges of fraudulently obtaining a driver's license, authorities told NorthJersey.com."

 

 

Apparently, Joe impersonated his own brother, Pietro. No surprise that Tre's little boo is in trouble again. I mean, how else does he pay for his very expensive wife and those damn flowers she puts on their little cupcakes, Gia, Gabriella, Milania, and Audriana. I know we're sure to see this on next season's already action packed RHONJ. Can't wait!! More updates as it happens.....Wanna read more about the Guidices' legal troubles click the link below.

 

 

'Til next time....

Don't Be Tardy for This Party!!!

Hey bleeples! It's been a minute since I got a chance to get at ya, but here I am so here we GO!! The Real Housewives of Atlanta is back on our screens delivering laughs and coonery all around....

Last week, we buried NeNe Leakes' gangsta after that crying scene she subjected us all to. No, she wasn't crying cuz her gangsta was dead, but because Sheree fronted her on a money situation. And no, Phaedra did not handle the ceremony. We just poured one for our homie. We'll miss you, gangsta. This week, NeNe, Kandi, and Cynthia took their talents down to South Beach for a girls' getaway.....Of course, its only fitting that they be visiting during Lesbian Pride weekend. In addition to getting hit on by the lady pond-ers, they also went hunting for retail. You know, NeNe's rich na! Oh you didn't. Well, if ya don't know, now ya know. She deposits Trump checks. Though, it did cross my mind that NeNe quit The Apprentice, and I thought those checks went to charity. I'll just have to kanye shrug that one off. Cynthia rode the NeNe train all the way in and out, while Kandi showed off her DONK! Take that Nicki Minaj.

Sheree and her son, Kairo, went shopping and spent time together. We found out about Ms. She by Sheree...that she used to be shy, that her ex-hubby still ain't paid those 7 figures, and a few other tidbits. She also shared that her ex doesn't spend anytime with the kids or help out in any way. Join the club, Sheree. Every other kid in America's got that story to tell.

It's Kim's birthday. You know her very vacant boo, Kroy, did it big in celebration. From the iced out bracelet to the 5-star meal to the no expenses spared birthday bash in the kitchen, that monkey did it big. I loved it!! Sweetie's been doing some things too. Keep in mind, I am a full-fledged card carrying member of the FREE SWEETIE campaign, but I think she's gone hollywood. Nobody that looks like Sweetie should ever wear powder pink lipstick. I mean, not even with a gun to her head. I digress. I enjoyed watching Kim NOT singing and enjoying her big, fantastic life with her gate-mouthed, awkward kids and her potato chip brained boo. I also loved when Kim cracked on NeNe saying "She ate her teeth". I'm sure NeNe enjoyed being the topic of conversation at your birthday too, Kim. That's prolly why NeNe tweeted that she was your birthday gift since you couldn't stop yacking about her. Straight from the horse's mouth!!

Phaedra and Mr. Willie Watkins graced us with their Funeral Foddery. Does it really get classier than an ice cream truck hurse?? Really?? No, it doesn't. Phaedra's mentor looks like he smells of collard greens and cornbread. His pockets fat, but his top hat FATTER. Phaedra really seems to be serious about this funeral home biz, she even fake consulted her convict hubby about it. He didn't seem to happy about it, but hey he needs a job and aint nobody else gonna give it to him. He needs to get used to the whole Six Feet Under idea. I'm just saying.

Next week, Apollo (convict boo) and Peter (RunTelDat) will be getting into an argument at Kim's baby shower. I might be old-fashioned, but it's kind of a man law violation to be fighting another dude at a baby shower. It's questionable that you're there to begin with. Weigh in, bleeps. I love to hear what you think?! Til' next time....
