LynnNChicago Exclusive Interview with Brandi Glanville! The Reunion, Gerard Butler and MORE!
Thank you to Brandi Glanville for taking the time to speak with me.
Jetting off to New York City to prepare for her appearance on Watch What Happens Live last Monday, Brandi and I spoke for about 20-minutes then we finished our interview a week after she returned home to LA from New York. She’s a busy lady! Admittedly my schedule was a bit crazy too which delayed things even more.
The Reunion
I asked Brandi about the reunion that will air tomorrow night and she was surprisingly open! The original five Housewives minus Kim will appear for the majority of tomorrow night’s episode and Brandi will be introduced toward the end of the first night. (Dana will only appear in the final episode for a few minutes – Yeah!)
Brandi told me that she knew the ladies had met and discussed reunion strategy before filming, without Lisa! With the exception of Camille, the other ladies had pre-arranged the attack on Lisa at the reunion but Brandi refused to be a part of any of it! When Brandi was brought out onto the stage, Brandi said that Lisa was crying. Brandi had been waiting backstage for hours and wasn’t allowed to watch or hear what was happening on stage. Brandi knew in advance that the plan of Kyle, Taylor and Adrienne was to slam it to Lisa and so Brandi admits to coming out with a chip on her shoulder.
“It was like Survivor, they meet up to go after one or the other and so you’ll hear me say, 
‘I’m sorry I couldn’t make the meeting’ they planned it all beforehand” Brandi said. ”They all decided to have a go at Lisa and it’s all silly, petty stuff!”
Now having watched the previews and seeing their ridiculous claims it all comes together, “Adrienne was upset over Lisa dubbing her shoes “The Maloof Hoof” for example. Really? That’s all they’ve got?” Brandi says she became angry at the way the ladies were treating Lisa, it just seemed so unfair because it was senseless.
I asked Brandi if she thought that Bravo had any influence over what they did to Lisa, in other words did she think Bravo encouraged them to gang up on her. ”No, I really don’t think so, no one at Bravo ever told me what to say, there was plenty of drama, there was no need for Bravo to create any.”
I asked Brandi about the rumors that she got into it with Taylor at the reunion, Brandi confirmed they did have a few words, “she asked me a question, and then didn’t like my answer.” Brandi told me, Brandi is nothing if not honest, she doesn’t tell people just what they want to hear so as she says, “Don’t ask if you don’t want to know!”
Kyle was confronted about her behavior toward Brandi at game night and the hiding of Brandi’s crutches. (Which I thought was really cruel) Brandi said that Kyle blames it on Kim at the reunion, Brandi told me that Kyle says, “It 
was Kim that hid your crutches”. Wow, I guess Kyle is as immature as she seems to be, clearly Kyle was in cahoots with her sister and could have ended it easily by simply telling Dana where the crutches were hidden. Brandi told me that the evening we saw was just 40-some minutes of hell, but it was an evening that went on for hours and hours for Brandi! Kyle would have been better to have been apologetic for her horrible behavior, particularly when she certainly did admit after the show aired that her behavior was childish and asinine! Why try to defend your behavior and blame it on your sister, who happens to be absent, months later? We know Kim did the hiding but Kyle was certainly guilty for giggling and ignoring the horrible behavior.
Brandi told me that she thought there was a lot of sibling rivalry going on between Kyle and Kim. ”Kyle seems to almost enjoy the anomosity between her and Kim, it’s like a competition.” Brandi said, “you know, they were both child actors but Kim was more successful and it seems to have followed them to adulthood.”
Twitter Battles
Brandi has been very active on Twitter and so I asked her, about her recent Twitter confrontations. Two weeks ago Kyle Richards and her husband appeared on Watch What Happens Live and they seemed to have a little Brandi bashing party.
Brandi told me that her feelings were hurt, “I really like Mauricio, he’s a nice guy I think he just had to choose the Housewife that his wife disliked the most”. When I suggested that possibly Mauricio thought that Brandi would be his easiest response because he knew that
Brandi was cool and would forgive him, she wasn’t so sure.
“The reunion opened some old wounds, we were ok and then we had to rehash the past arguments, it brings it all out again.” Brandi told me. ”Kyle and I had some tough arguments but when it comes to my parenting skills, and my kids, you just don’t go there.”
Brandi had a Twitter battle a while back with Dana Wilkey, it wasn’t tough to see what happened but I asked Brandi what she thought was going through Dana’s mind when she re-tweeted that horrible comment about Brandi’s parenting skills.
“Dana is desperately trying to get back onto the show for next season. She’s trying to stay relevant” Brandi told me, “She has a publicist that tells her exactly what to do and she does it.” Brandi went on to say that Dana had a good heart and that whenever Dana has asked for Brandi’s help and support she has always been there for her, which has apparently been quite frequently.
“I’ve forgiven her but I don’t forget things.” Brandi said. This season has been tough for Brandi, it seems as though none of the ladies made it easy for her. Any friendships or alliances that Brandi built, she fought hard to get there. The ladies seemed guarded and prepared to dislike Brandi but when all was said and done, it’s tough to not like her once 
you get to know her.
Brandi and I talked again during our second conversation about Dana, I questioned why Dana would have a publicist, Brandi didn’t know but she knows Dana is fighting hard to get back onto the show for next season. This attack on Brandi by Dana could be all her publicist’s idea to get attention but it isn’t getting a charge out of Brandi, “I refuse to be Dana’s punching bag.” Brandi has blocked Dana on Twitter and is ignoring her.
Brandi said that Dana is so interested in fame that she would ask Brandi questions like, “When do you think people will start to recognize us?” During the season a few of the 
Housewives had a go at Dana about her home, with minimal furniture and personal touches in the home, some wondered about whether it was really Dana’s home, in fact it turns out it was rented by Dana and her fiance, John Flynn who was there on Game Night but refused to be filmed.
Dana has since rented a 6-story home with an elevator seemingly to impress Bravo in hopes to be on Real Housewives next season. Brandi admitted to not knowing anything about Dana’s finances and would never make fun of anyone’s home but when I asked about the $25k sunglasses, Brandi speculated that it could have been a borrowed thing to promote them on the show. “Maybe she was hoping to get a pair for free if she wore them and talked about them on the show”. We know Dana did something similar with the $1 million diamond lollypop holder. I don’t imagine Bravo appreciates being used like that but that’s Dana’s business.
Brandi’s Family
We talked about her son peeing in the grass, I told her I didn’t think it was a big deal, I know some people were outraged but I wasn’t one of them, Brandi said ”they still do it, they get into trouble but they still do it, I’m trying to teach them but they’re little boys, they do that”.
Brandi’s son’s are into sports, the oldest Mason (8 years old) plays soccer and wants to be a doctor or a lawyer when he grows up. Little Jake (4 years old) has announced that he wants to be a gangster rapper and chastises Mason telling him he’ll have to work every day as a doctor or a lawyer while Jake will have it much easier as a musician. Hysterical! Brandi has no idea how he came up with that logic! Adorable!
Real Housewives of Beverly Hills
I asked Brandi what she didn’t like about being a Bravo Housewife, if there was something she could change, what would it be? ”Nothing” Brandi told me, “I know it sounds odd but I really love it, there isn’t anything I would change, I am blessed.”
Bravo hasn’t offered Brandi a spot on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills for next season but I asked Brandi if she would come back if offered a spot on the show. Brandi said ”I would come back but not as a ‘friend’ of the Housewives, it needs to be a full time kind of thing.”
“Kyle and Lisa will be back next season but everyone else is up in the air” Brandi told me, 
“We probably won’t know anything until March, they like to wait until the last minute.” (Word is Bravo is scheduled to begin filming the next season in March)
Brandi was introduced to the show and brought on by Adrienne Maloof but Brandi tells me they don’t see each other at all now that filming is complete, “Adrienne is a really busy lady, she works hard, she is a businesswoman.”
I was interested to know how it happened that Brandi went on the trip to Hawaii but Dana 
wasn’t invited, “I don’t really know” Brandi said, “I didn’t think I was going to be invited and I had a trip to Cabo planned, they asked me to cancel it and go to Hawaii. To be honest I didn’t want to go.” Brandi explained that this group of girls weren’t exactly all warm and fuzzy to her and after Game Night she wasn’t thrilled about spending time with this group.
She enjoyed the trip in the end and became much closer with Lisa in Hawaii. As we talked Brandi was on her way to meet Lisa at the airport as they were flying to New York together, we saw them both on Watch What Happens Live together.
Gerard Butler
Brandi did admit to having a week long fling with Gerard Butler, he later denied knowing who she was but he certainly got the name right when he repeated it twice. (after the reporter said her name vaguely and while barely breathing.)
It was interesting that when Andy questioned Brandi further, it turned out her fling was during last season’s filming, how did Bravo’s cameras miss that?
Brandi told me that she’s spoken with Gerard on the phone and have had numerous text messages, she’s apologized to him and if she could take it back she absolutely would. ”If there is one thing I regret and would take back, it’s that!” (telling the world about their week long fling) Brandi told me that when Andy Cohen asks you a question his eyes are like truth syrum. “His eyes get really big and you have to tell him the truth.” she laughed.
“One thing I am not, is a liar, I said it and I can’t take it back.” Brandi told me. ”What am I going to do now, go back and say I lied about it? No, I’m not going to do that!” It’s out there and Gerard is going to have to deal with it. You can only apologize so much then you have to move on. Gerard tried to deny he even knew Brandi by telling a TMZ reporter, “Who’s Brandi Glanville?” but it was pretty clear when he repeated it the second time that he knows exactly who Brandi is. He overplayed his hand a bit! Yes, he’s upset with Brandi but as I told her, he’ll get over it! Two consenting adults, both single, they did nothing wrong so why deny it?
Brandi’s Workout / Diet
Brandi clearly has an amazing body, I asked her how she maintains that and she told me 
that before having her first child she really didn’t have to work out too much, but like most women after that first baby and as age creeps up, Brandi now works out three times a week with a trainer and she has done that for the past 9-years, “Power Pilates” is what she and her trainer calls her main source of workout. A combination of Pilates with Cardio. Due to her tough workout schedule, she doesn’t feel like she should have to watch what she eats but does practice portion control. ”I won’t eat the whole plate of pasta, but I AM ordering the pasta!” Good for you Brandi! I love it!
Other Housewives Series
I asked Brandi if she watches any of the other Housewives shows and she admitted she does watch Orange County, Atlanta and a bit of New Jersey. While she hasn’t met any of the other housewives yet, her favorite is Kandi Burress. ”Kandi is sweet and a single mother, she’s got her toy business going on and I just love her!” Good choice Brandi!
A Few Other Tidbits
Some thought that Andy Cohen was a little hard on Brandi as he hosted Kyle and Mauricio on Watch What Happens Live but Brandi says that she and Andy have a great relationship. 
Andy even set her up on a date with a friend of his while she was in New York! It was filmed for Bravo and we’ll see it on an upcoming Valentines special!
Brandi didn’t appear on the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills finale, she wasn’t invited to Pandora’s wedding but she told me that she didn’t expect to be invited. ”I didn’t know Pandora at the time, I really had only just gotten a little closer with Lisa in Hawaii.”
Brandi is dating but there isn’t anyone special in her life right now.
After Real Housewives – The Cast
We talked about Brandi’s cast mates, she keeps in touch with Lisa just about every day and she talks to Camille several times a week. ”With Camille it’s tough to get her out of the house because she’s got her hot man but we’re going to get her to go to dinner with us tonight.”
Brandi spends time with Lisa at Villa Blanca whenever she can but she doesn’t keep in touch with the others right now. ”I was going good with Kyle until the reunion.” Bravo forcing these ladies to renew old arguments and re-live Game Night, for example, has completely put their relationship back from bad to worse.
I asked Brandi what she thought about Taylor returning to the series next season. ”I just hope she takes some time for herself to get better” Brandi said, “I know financially she needs to do the show”
Brandi’s Message
Finally, I asked Brandi if there is anything she would like to get out there, any message she’d like to convey to viewers and fans. She’s taken some heat lately for her activities including the Gerard Butler affair, her Las Vegas Wedding and going out partying.
“Guess what, I’m a woman, a sexual being. Obviously I don’t do these things in front of my kids. I’m a mom first but I have free time and I like to enjoy myself, I’m not dead. I may be divorced but life doesn’t end after divorce!” Brandi said “These people who want to sit and be judgmental, it’s not right I’m a grown woman, they say that I’m not mother of the year but they don’t know me. I’m allowed to go out and have a little fun”
I liked Brandi Glanville a lot before speaking with her and I like her even more afterward. She is open and honest, when I asked her about the reunion I honestly thought she would tell me that she couldn’t talk about it. I even prefaced my question with, “You probably can’t talk about the reunion but…” Brandi told me, “It’s going to air tomorrow night anyway….” and off she went with details and was very open and honest.
I happen to agree that she is a young divorced single mom and should go out and enjoy
Brandi's Boys
herself without being judged! It’s interesting that Brandi chose Kandi as her favorite Housewife because Kandi is in the exact same situation as Brandi, a divorced, single mom yet Kandi doesn’t get a lot of criticism for her personal life. Kandi hosts a sex discussion internet program and launched a sex toy business, she admits to having sex yet people don’t criticize Kandi the way they do with Brandi.
We do judge the Housewives, we all do and they certainly do have to have a thick skin to deal with the criticism. Brandi does a pretty good job of dealing with her critics, while she doesn’t get into battles, she does defend herself.
Thank you once again to Brandi for taking the time to talk with me, I hope we can do it again soon! I wish Brandi the best of luck and hope that Bravo chooses Brandi as a full time Housewife next season.

From RumorFix:
Reality star Brandi Glanville recently appeared on Watch What Happens Live where she revealed that she once had sex for an entire week with Gerard Butler last summer.
But in a video with TMZ, the actor claims he doesn’t even know who the RHOBH star even is, asking the camera, “who’s Brandi Glanville?”
So, is Brandi lying about doing the dirty with the hunky star? Absolutely not! Brandi tells RumorFix exclusively, “He called me last night and told me he said it. He is upset because he is a private person. I don’t lie so I don’t really care”

Until Next Time…
Excellent Interview Lynn!!! You got some great info.
I started out as no liking her and she won me over. I do hope Bravo listens to the fans and signs her full time next year.
Agreed!
Where is the “Like” button? Most Excellent Lynnn
Lynn didn’t ask Brandi who she heard this from though. Who told Brandi about the meeting. Was it Camille?
Brandi said Maloof biz partner called and invited her to this meeting.
Lynn, Great interview! I have to say I was ready to not like Brandi before she was on RHOBH and now I love her. It is refreshing to have an honest housewife and I love how she tells it like it is.
That said, I think it is despicable how the other housewives go after Lisa on the reunion show. I keep giving Kyle the benefit of the doubt, but I’m pretty much done with her. Taylor is just ick. Adrienne doesn’t like that she’s not the cream of the crop and is going to go all Mean Girls. It’s just sickening.
I’m on Team Honest.
Same here! I kep excusing Kyle over and over and over, but that night with Mauricio on WWHL I saw something I hadn’t see before. She lost me there.
Yep. It like everything is adding up to Kyle just being mean and nasty.
Remember on the “Dinner Party from Hell-Producers Cut” when Allison Dubois pretty much accused Kyle of being a mean girl and said “Kyle is every girl in high school that made someone want to kill themselves”. At the time, Kyle wasnt so bad on camera so I thought it was crazy but i just saw the producers cut on youtube today and Allison, as crazy as she is, kind of makes sense!
Kyle has always been a spiteful, two faced, social climbing She Devil. I guess people are just star struck. What is scary to me is that she is not that big a star, so I guess it does not take much for the public to go gaga for koo koo puffs. We should not judge a book by its cover because the inside might be filled with lies and deception. When I look into Kyle’s eyes I see the eyes of a predator who only seems really happy, and in her element, when she is mothering or playing critical parent, or bullying other women she perceives as being a threat to the free world. IMO.
A Whole Brandi Blog!!!!! Thanks a bunch for posting it.
8)
Yes thanks for doing this on your day off! Interesting scoops in there.
Thanks for taking your day off to post this Lynn. I love Brandi! She us my favorite housewife in any series. I hope to much that she becomes full time. I like her and Lisa together and would love to see them together hanging out. Kyle is so jelous of Brandi it’s beyond obvious. Like others, I’m done done done with Kyle. She is a MEAN GIRL The end. Great interview and great guest. Thank you Lynn and Brandi. Brandi really does keep it real as she has tweeted me a few times as has her friend Jen. Jen is GORGEOUS. peace and live and see y’all tonight. I can’t quit my Phaedra. I’m gonna ignore Mene and Merlow
Nice interview.
Did Kandi’s ex marry an insecure country star with psycho fans/paid friends? No? Well that might explain things…..
From GiggythePom (Giggy’s) Twitter about 2 hrs ago:
Oh @gerardbutler you have forgotten @BrandiGlanville ? Mm,I suppose you don’t remember sleeping with me either? http://twitpic.com/8db9r7
Brandi retweeted the pic and added”
@giggythepom LMAO!!! He is a “real DOG”
RT
Hilarious!
Hahahahahahaha!
Yes… so Mr. Butler is a real private person. More like a real Public Liar! IMO.
Awesome interview and blog Lynn! I adore Brandi probably more than any other HW. She seems to be honest to a fault and she ownes her mistakes or bad choices. I think people forget we were all young once and many of us made not so great choices. We just did not have all the world judging us. Really, who are we to judge anyways? Pointing out mistakes or disagreeing with a choice a HW makes is one thing. Some people are just cruel and hateful to these ladies. At the end of the day I’m thankful that they put themselves out there for us to watch and be entertained.
Brandi is a stunning woman and Butler is a sweaty, not very clean looking guy. If I was her I would just say I was kidding and let it go. He acted not very gentlemanly with Jennifer Aniston, IMO. Sometimes I wonder if women just are a beard for him.
Also, if Brandi doesn’t need the money she should think very hard about being a Housewife. The franchise seems to try and ruin their reputations. She doesn’t need that with her two little boys. I really think Andy delights in getting the women to act up and look as bad as possible. If he really liked women he would try and show them in a better way. Instead, they yell at each other and fight like trailer trash. I haven’t seen anything like it except the few times I watched a Jerry Springer Show.
I hope Brandi trys to get in with the crowd of people in Hollywood who work really hard on charity events and will try to make her mark in that environment in a more positive way, if being known is what she wants. Sharon Stone didn’t make any really noteable movies except for the one with Michael Douglas but she worked tireless for Amfar and really made herself know and got plenty of work that way. Just my 2 cents.
What a great post!
Brandi is doing a fine job at ruining her own reputation. Just Google her name and you’ll know too much about her. Sheesh, I feel for her boys.
Don’t know Brandi you’re talking about, but you’re obviously googling the wrong Brandi.
@Ione
A very worthy 2 cents.
I would think Brandi needs the income the show provides, especially if she gets billed as a Housewife. I kind of doubt she got a great divorce settlement, since Eddie is pretty much being supported by his new wife.
I don’t know… I think they do a lot to ruin their own reputations. I don’t think Brandi will roll like that. It’s hard for them to make you look bad if you don’t give them the material.
I think a bad edit can go a long way to discredit a character on the housewives. We all know that Andy has his little pets too. He only adds to already juvenile expectations for ugly cat fighting and denial of responsibility for really awful public behavior.
Lynn, good on you for having an interview with Brandi. She is one of the most interesting cast members out of all of the Real Housewives series.
I am really not impressed with Bravo. Whatever they do, I won’t be surprised. They seem to be making worse and worse decisions as time goes by. They also seem to take no blame for their choices or actions.
Brandi would of course make a great addition to the RHOBH. Screw Bravo if they are too obtuse to see that.
Why am I not surprised that idiot ,fame whore, Kyle picked a fight with Brandi during the reunion? It’s sickening that these women have so much ,yet appreciate so little.
Not to be a Debbie Downer but the RHOA trip to Africa looks like another scenerio of contrived drama. ~yawn~
I would rather watch paint dry. I’ll wait for Lynn’s recap tomorrow.
As for the women of the BH ganging up on Lisa, I can’t, I just can’t. It’s just so stupid and petty at this point. Something has got to give. Like, um, I don’t know, maybe have a proper story line and stop bashing people for no apparently good reason.
Just a thought…
Good one!! Maybe they could actually address Trailors lies as everybody knows she full of it.
They could do that (and do the right thing). But Bravo is still allowing Taylips to hide behind Russell’s death.
As a side note,I never saw her happier after Russell’s suicie when she came over when Kennedy. The attention was all on Taylor, which is just where she wants it.
(I am cooking. Sorry for the typos. But there is no way to edit.
)
I was getting ready for her fake tears but when she should have been crying she wasn’t. You hit the nail on the head… she was getting the attention without even having to try. That made her very happy.
Great interview Lynn! I like Brandi a lot and even more after this interview. Sometimes I don’t think she uses the best judgement but she has a big heart. Wouldn’t it be karmic justice if she gets Taylor’s place? I’d love that so much. Adrienne, Kyle and Taylips are such mean girls. Adrienne you are rapidly becoming very disliked.
Is there a reason why Kyle can’t blame Kim for hiding the crutches? Because she did. We saw her admit to it. So I don’t see how Kyle is being immature for pointing out we already know. Kim wasn’t there to defend herself? Doesn’t mean she didn’t do it.
In one of the clips Bravo has up Camilla is also telling Lisa that the Maloof Hoof comment was rude. So it seems to me while Camilla wasn’t at the “meeting” she does have a bone to pick with Lisa. I have no idea why but she clearly is not on team Lisa. That all being said it is sad that instead of focusing on the drunkie drunk that is Kim and the HUGE LIAR that is Taylor everyone is going to focus on Lisa. Wonder if the producers asked the other ladies to focus on Lisa as to take the attention of the Liar that is Taylor.
That’s why I asked Brandi if she thought Bravo pushed the ladies to pick on Lisa, Brandi didn’t think so.
We know Kim hid the crutches, no one is denying that but Kyle could have put an end to the harassment and when asked where the crutches were instead of giggling like a mean school girl, she could have just ended it. The blame is on Kim but Kyle isn’t blameless either. Kyle admitted her behavior was horrible after the show aired, why not stick with that and apologize instead of “Kim did it” childish answer.
Oh I agree that Kyle isn’t blameless. But it seems to me that Kyle is like 20 percent at fault and Kim is 80 percent at fault. Just that Kim gets away with these things and Kyle is left to shoulder the blame as the responsible sister. And we don’t know if the other ladies knew where the crutches were either as Kim’s whispering skills suck.
Just in light of Kim falling down drunk at Thanksgiving and Taylor’s….entire life it just seems odd that the other ladies would focus on jokes and small slights made by Lisa. Taylor I can understand doing this but surely Adrienne, Kyle, and Camilla know this will just seem stupid when compared to the real drama.
Maybe there really is more we are not seeing. There were two clips in the previews for the season that were not used. One when the ladies were talking about Lisa stirring the pot and another with Lisa saying maybe no one is my friend. Maybe Lisa DID do something to make the other ladies mad (outside of maybe getting her own show) and that storyline was cut due to the fact Russel killed himself. Things just seemed so jumble and cut together.
The clip when Lisa said: “Maybe no one is my friend” was the episode when Taylor was nominated or received some BS award for something and did not invite Lisa to that event. Lisa talked to Kyle on the phone, remember? …Kyle told her they were all at the event. At the end of the phone conversation with Kyle or before ( not sure ) Lisa tells Ken – who was in the room with her…”maybe no one is my friend..”
The other clip, never aired on an episode – the one at the Malibu Party – when Adrienne says “Lisa stis the pot…”
Thanks for reminding me of that. This season has been really long. It seems weird that Lisa would say that in regards to THAT event as the only one not being her friend was Taylor. Kyle obviously didn’t know Lisa wasn’t invited.
But the other clip is too weird for words. It had to be done before Taylor’s meltdown but when? Did all the “main” ladies leave the party to go off in a room to talk about Lisa? Something smells fishy.
ALL the ladies KNEW that Lisa was not invited. They just acted like they didn’t know. IMO.
Remember days before Lisa had invited Taylor to Pandora’s engagement party and Taylor accepted ( snake!)
Not sure about the other clip as they film for hours and we only see 10 or 20 minutes of it.
Kim was totally off on game night. It looked like she took way too much of her anxiety pills and was all over the place. Kyle had all her senses and could tell there was something wrong with Kim. Her behavior at game night was ALL her and she egged Kim on…so i don’t by the 20 percent. Kyle could have easily railed her sister in, but instead she engaged in the same behavior (while sober).
Thank you!! Kyle is Petty, jealous and a Really mean girl. Look at her niece that adores her so much.
Kyle was sober though…so while Kim may have been out of it, Kyle should have been mature enough as a sober adult to stop it. Not to mention Kyle giggled when Kim said “i dont want to play with her” *pout face* and encouraged Kim by not stopping it. Kim kind of had an excuse whereas Kyle was just flat out an organic b*tch that night
And not only that… I think Kyle set Kim up beforehand not to like Brandi. She told Kim all the “horrible” things Brandi did and that she didn’t like her. Kim was prepared for that and in her state that’s all that mattered. On spa day when Kyle said she was going to talk to Brandi Kim said “I defended you now you’re turning your back on me” or something like that so Kim went in not liking Brandi because of things that Kyle told her.
Kyle said in her talking head in that episode something to the effect that “that was the old Kim she knew and loved.” So she was proud of her catty behavior.
Kyle didn’t giggle that night when she learned Kim took the crutches. That was a TH. And, in your blog you clearly bashed Kyle for blaming Kim who you noted wasn’t there to defend herself, clearly suggesting Kyle was lying about who hid the crutches or was being unfair to ‘accuse’ Kim in her absence. Then, you flip right around and admit that we know Kim did it. It’s like you’re so desperate to demonize Kyle, whether the facts support it or not. Btw, we don’t know Kyle doesn’t apologize at the reunion. You can’t conclude that based on one short clip.
Yes, Kyle DID giggle when Kim hid the crutches. Get your facts straight.
I think it’s just sour grapes by the other three. Bravo ended the series with Pandora’s wedding. I am sure that the other ladies did not like that, even though it was all light and happiness. Lisa is the loser with these three because she doesn’t fall into line with them.
And that is why she is getting her own show!
I also think they weren’t planning on having the wedding the finale, but they needed to do something after Russell’s suicide to end the season with some sort of closure. Otherwise the SUR party – where every single one was invited, and Taylor talking about her relationship – would have been the finale.
But I guess that put the finale at Lisa’s venue as well – which is probably why they were jelly.
That might account for them filming the season opener at Adriennes, and the updated finale scene at Kyle’s to even it out.
I think they added the wedding footage after RA suicide because they needed more film. I think I recall reading somewhere that’s the reason why Bravo didn’t film the wedding because it was not to be part of this season.
The talks about Lisa getting her own show started at the end of last season. Acording to the not so reliable “bernie the cook” the pilot was shot before they started shooting S2.
This will explain why the other ladies from the begining were so rude to Lisa.
I read somewhere? that the footage of the wedding was from a private video because Pandora didn’t want Bravo there. It’s my guess that Pandora and Lisa had control over what was shown on TV.
Pandora called in to WWHL last week, she said she initially didn’t want Bravo there but now she is glad she allowed it because they did a beautiful job of documenting her big day.
Lynn,
The Producer’s blog at the Bravo site says that the film was from a private film person that Pandora had hired. Bravo borrowed the film to show on that episode. Dave Blah Blah was explaining why the film looked different as he was getting lots of questions about it.
I think what Pandora may have meant is that she was glad they filmed her inside her house; the pre wedding stuff and her walking down the staircase. The actual ceremony and reception was her private film person. I think that is what she meant to say on WWHL. I’ll have to go back and watch WWHL and re-read the Producer’s blog.
Ah ok, well that’s confusing. thanks Val!
Right, because the ladies wouldn’t have known that’s how the season was ending… with Pandora’s wedding so that can’t be why they had bad attitudes towards her all season.
Christina, Kyle could have told Brandi where her crutches were (or even better brought them to her) but instead she just giggled at her clever sister. I agree with Lynn, Kyle should have just apologized again instead of trying to deflect blame.
The more I see Kyle on her book tour the less I like her. I didn’t like her outing her sister last year and I don’t like her two facedness this year. She isn’t loyal to anyone including her bestie Taylor. At least Dana was loyal to Taylor and believed her (ill advised though it may have been).
Kyle and Brandi both said Kyle apologized for that night. I think these reunions just open old wounds and create more drama for the next season. I wouldn’t really want to keep on apologizing for things I did like 10 months ago. And at least Kyle apologized. Kim never did. I can see how it can be frustrating for apologizing for something that was only slightly your fault. I can see why Kyle wants the blame to be placed on Kim like it should be but she should have just said sorry one more time to put the issue to rest.
Even Brandi said she blamed Kyle more than Kim because of Kim’s condition. Kyle had no reason to act the way she did towards her. Kyle already met her several times and I’m sure told Kim she didn’t like her so that’s where Kim’s problem with her came from. Kyle is always throwing Kim under the bus. She simply could have said “We both acted badly and I will always regret that night” or something like that. And why would they discuss Kim’s problem at the reunion? Especially the way you say it. Kim was in rehab and IMO it would have been in poor taste to talk about her problems without her there and while getting help.
I watched last years reunion and Camille alludes to the fact that she and Kelsey were friends and socialized with Adrienne and Paul. Methinks she is still stinging a little from Lisa not liking her last year.
I would like to say that I am really happy to hear Camille did NOT join in on the Lisa bashing.. Not that I thought she would stoop so low as she seems to be completely different this season.. But I’m happy that she isn’t afraid to be on their bad side for what is right.. I love the Brandi, Lisa and Camille combo and hope they put the other ladies in their place! The rest I am more than happy to do without.. tho I enjoy Paul so I could deal with Adrienne to keep him around vs. someone like Ken.. Also, Camille deserves a man to keep her holed up in the house.. Lord knows Kelsey probably was lacking in that department.. Brandi should be able to do what women do without judgement.. It always blows my mind when people make certain subjects as so taboo when its something EVERYONE does.. Brandi is a gorgeous inside and out woman who has every right to be happy and have fun.. so good for her!
P.S- I meant Kim’s Ken.. as Lisa’s is a total sweetheart..
Also, after reading that SH blog on the rumors of the housewives I totally believe the stuff said about Kyle and it makes me hate her even more.. I fully believe she is one of the most disgusting people ever for publicly pimping out her sister for money.. ugh..
But, Camille does clearly bash Lisa at least once, about the Maloof hoof comment.
GReat Interview Lynn. It seems you got a lot of substance….alot of other interviewers seem so fluff and empty.
It was super obvious the other ladies (kyle and adrianne especially) got together to create a game plan to go against Lisa. I am hoping Adrianne does not come back. She was super boring last year so i think for the second season she amped up the drama with Lisa to remain relevant on the show. If it wasn’t for her superficial beef with Lisa..and now adding her digusting chef to it…what would Adrianne have to talk about at the reunion? She has zero storyline and she knew she had to bring in the drama…too bad it was at the expense of her intergrity.
LOve Brandi and i hope she comes back full time. I am sure Kyle is shitting in her pants hoping that doesn’t happen. Anyone notice that Kyle is tweeting Dana now lol.
Why is it that other interviews of Brandi didn’t get this much substance. I remember a while ago two other bloggers interviewed Brandi and got nothing really….just two sentence. I have to say I love this interview Lynn….this is my third time reading it lol…can’t wait till the reunion.
Great analysis of Adrienne. I don’t care for the way she treats her husband. I HATE the way it takes her fooorever to say something.
And I really couldn’t stand her voice this year, the hoarse tone and the way she mispronounces things “CaMILL” instead of “Cameel” for instance.
haha I agree about the voice and that pronunciation too! And I definitely think Adrienne has spoken to Kyle about what has been bothering her about Lisa. It seems natural to me that Adrienne might ask her advice, knowing that Kyle and Lisa were close…and if Kyle heard anything from Adrienne about Lisa that echoed thoughts she might have been having herself about Lisa, I bet they bonded over it. Then, they decided to confront Lisa, figuring if they both felt the same way, that Lisa must be the one in the wrong. It sucks that they decided to do it @ the reunion-if that’s what happened.
lol re-reading what I wrote, it seems I did a poor job of explaining that…does it make sense..?
They had to gang up on Lisa. Lisa is tough and not one of them could take her down alone!
Maybe Taylor wasn’t lying at the tea party at Lisa’s house.
I did hear Camille say something about the shoe, but I don’t think she was part of the group attack.
Brandi is awesome for not sinking to the level of these nasty women! I respect her for that and I don’t even care you can see her nipples through her clothes. She is showing more class than Kyle!
Every time Taylor’s lips move she’s lying. And why bring Lisa down? For what? It’s on tape that she didn’t say Taylor wasn’t her friend… she said she wasn’t pretending they were BEST friends… gives it a totally different connotation.
I don’t believe this planned gang up stuff for one second. It’s absurd. How in the world would Brandi know that? Like they’d sit and tell her if they were? Come on, that’s nonsense. Adrienne had some real anger at Lisa all season and she’s just airing it at the reunion.
Kit hopefully you’re right. Andy will stir the pot, not the women. He needs spice, not sweetness. Ratings, period.
Sounds like they rehash stuff that was petty, irritating, but not such a big deal.
maybe a diff way to think is this is not a reunion, but an audition for next season. So the girls hype the drama to remain relevant and also keep us blogging til they start the new taping when we will have more gossip.
I’m mid reading but I want to share I just heard thunder! It’s snowing and thundering! Is that even possible? I’m so confused to hear that in January! Back to reading thumbs up so far, Lynn!
emt,
How is your foot?
Doing alright. The burning was swelling around one of the incisions (my scar count has gone from 2 to 6 with this surgery). The incision is near my tibial nerve so that’s the “popping/swelling”. Pain is still there so pain pills are my friend. Have a normal cast so now dealing with itchy staples. How’s everything on your end and thanks for asking.
Love it!!!
I am very happy with her for giving you the exclusive and being open. I like her, like you, even more now. I hope she does come back as a housewife and not just as a friend. She is basically in the same envied group. Camille and Lisa have gotten the bad treatment, and Brandi did too even though she was just a friend. I can only imagine now. I hope Camille and Lisa come back. I like them both and it would be nice for Brandi to have some friends in the show.
It is too bad Gerard denied it, he could have said, “no comment”. I do understand that he is a private person, but she is not, and she regrets it and apologized already. There is nothing else she can do now about that.
Thank you Lynn for sharing
Exclusive? I could walk up to her with carrot, tell her it’s a microphone and she’d give me an interview. That crack-pot Ilana also got an interview.
What is your point?
My point is that she is a fame-whore but hides behind motherhood like it’s some sort of cleansing spell. It’s not. Her oldest boy is what, 10? He’ll be on the internet soon (eight years and mommy can’t set parental controls, and let’s not forget that LeAnne probably has these turned off because she’s cray-cray!).
Comparing Kandi to Brandi is like comparing Apples to Whore Apples. I don’t hear about Kandi getting drunkly married in Vegas, I don’t hear who she has/is sleeping with, I don’t read interviews by her from every single person with a blog. Why? Because Kandi is busy being a mother and a serious artist. Brandi is busy eating d!cks, drinking, and leeching off Lisa’s fame.
I know, I know. You all love her and think she can do no wrong. But if Jill Zaren talked about shagging some dude on WWHL, you guys would be all over it. If Kyle told people she got drunkenly married in Vegas (hell, even if it was to Mauricio all these years later!) again, you guys would be ALL over her for her poor decisions.
Blinders are put on and we pretend the pretty girl before us isn’t simply a washed up model trying to stay relevant. Spoiler Alert: That’s EXACTLY what she is.
X__X I think both Brandi and Kandi have done questionable things in their past and present. Like rumor has it Kandi’s baby daddy was in another relationship at the time when Kandi got pregnant. I don’t think any of the ladies on these shows are perfect. Obviously ALL OF THEM want to be famous because they are on TV. So calling one cast member a fame whore is weird when they are all trying to do that.
Maybe if Brandi was trying to get people fired from their jobs at hotels or causing people to hang themselves I would have contempt for her too. But for now I find some of the things annoying but she can be refreshingly honest at times and that is what the show needs.
Christina, point taken and actually I do agree with you at the end. I try to like her, and then she pulls some other PR stunt then I’m like: this freaking chick.
I don’t watch reality TV other than RH’s so my gauge of crazy be off, especially when I know there’s a show about Stage Moms (because of this blog).
Thanks for the dialog and for being civil! I appreciate it.
I really do want to understand this love for Brandi by so many because it completely escapes me.
I think many people like Brandi because she was sweeping the Kim issue under the rug. Everyone else was acting like OH POOR KIM while Brandi was like no you is crazy. Then while Brandi tried to make amends and take the high road that gave her a lot of points while Kim going on and on about the party was petty.
And while Brandi and Kyle have issues Brandi was very kind at the dinner table in regards to drunk Kim. She said what needed to be said while others were just trying to make Kyle feel better.
But I do think a lot of people are giving Brandi a free pass on some issues. They criticize what others wear but Brandi can be just as naked as the rest of them and everyone says that is because she is young and free. She is 39 years old and she was wearing a see through white dress. She paraded around in bandaids in Hawaii. And she did sweep the Cedric issue under the bus when really she should have come out and told the truth.
But overall I think people find Brandi’s problems and issues harmless compared to the grifters and liars on some of the Housewife shows. I think people see a lot of Bethenny in her, just Bethenny had better timing and wasn’t dropping the f-bomb every five minutes.
Wow. Excellent post and points, Christina!
You’re right, she did say the appropriate things to Kyle at the Hawaii party and that episode made me do a 180 on her, I loved her! Then she talked smack about Mauricio while he was on WWHL over a really silly game. That made me go back to being leery of her. She lashes out in a very harsh way and it’s ok because she’s being “honest”? I don’t agree. That’s not honesty- it’s horrible behavior and seems to be consistently coming from her. I think there’s more to the Brandi/Kyle thing that we don’t know about. Clearly they have issues no one is talking about.
Also, Brandi being new, should have simply steered clear of Kim’s Crazy Train. She completely freaked out when she was not included in game night, which is as big of a deal as the lint in my dryer. I took that as throwing a little hissy and picking on the addict. Something no other HW would do to Kim. Actually, I would never do that in general. Though she handled herself wonderfully the 2nd time. It’s a shame her true colors came out the first time (IMO).
Aw christ, just when I had made my mind UP about this chick! I ‘m starting to like her again. haha
I think she might be acting a little too harsh in regards to Mauricio and the comment on WWHL. He had to say SOMEONE’S name and I think Kyle wanted him to pick DanaPam simply because she was never there. But even so if Brandi likes being honest maybe she shouldn’t get bent out of shape over a game, especially when Mauricio had a hard time picking a person anyway.
I think there was a lot of bad behavior on Game Night. Brandi was probably feeling on edge because her “friend” Adrienne wasn’t there and Kyle was on edge because her sister is Kim. Then it turned into a silly fight and lasted a lot of the season. A lot of the fights in this show are over really petty things yet the real issues are left unsaid. I do think that Brandi is going to need more a storyline to stay on the show though. Guess I find it weird that several of the women are keeping their kids off the TV. I know why they are but being a mother is a full time job and never seeing the kids is weird.
I totally believe Mauricio picked Brandi because he knew that’s who Kyle would have wanted him to pick. Why would she want him to pick Dana? She can’t stand Brandi because she’s jealous.
Glambot,
Wow, that was beyond harsh. I think Brandi is just being herself…the good the bad and the ugly. I must admit i was intially put off by how she got on the show (befriending cedric) but I have grown to really like Brandi. She seems to say what she means and means what she says. She has a hint of “sincerity and honesty” that many of the housewives lack. She doesn’t seem to cater to keeping her responses PC and she doesn’t seemed rehearsed and fake to me. What you see is what you get from her. Doesn’t mean you will always agree with her, but she just comes with less BS. It means that she has less fake and inaunthentic tape to get through before you get to the real person. I don’t see her having a living room full of publicist and managers rehearsing for the reunion….i don’t see her calling other hw to set up scenes and discussions….i don’t see her practicing her “shocked face” in the mirror….and i don’t see her engaging in fake fights. These are all behaviors that many of the other HW’s have engaged in….so it is refreshing to see someone like Brandi who is a little bit less transparent. As far as famewhoring….they all famewhore lol. Each and every one of these Hw’s tweet and give interviews….it’s kinda become a job requirement.
Mel, I agree she seems more honest than the other HW’s at times. Actually, that is an excellent point about her not having a “team” to prep her and makes some of her behavior on the show make sense! Never thought of it that way.
Still, she needs to learn a little educate, manners, and appropriateness to be 100% on the B.H, fan base or not.
I have educate(d) myself on the spelling of:
*etiquette
She didn’t befriend Cedric to get on the show… she was friends with him because they modeled together no? Bravo approached her knowing that… I don’t think it was the other way around.
Glambot I’m glad you’re providing your opinion and I respect that but please don’t pretend to know what we would do or say “if” different things happened. First of all we all have different opinions, just as you do. Saying “you guys would be all over it” is assuming what you have no way of knowing. Why would we criticize Kyle for getting re-married to her husband in Vegas? That simply doesn’t make sense, I certainly wouldn’t have a problem with that.
You’re painting us all out to be unreasonable thugs and that simply isn’t fair.
Now now, Lynn. I think you’re a completely reasonable thug.
Haha kidding!!
I’m sorry if that’s how I came across. Not intended, but there is a blind eye turned towards her at times that I don’t understand. Am I alone in seeing this?
Are you talking about Brandi or Kyle?
Brandi. She’s just accepted while others get nit picked apart it seems. Maybe just to me. That’s absolutely possible. I’ve been wrong (many times) before!
Kyle can’t breath without being ripped. Take the blog’s characterization of Kyle and Mauricio appearance on WWHL concerning Brandi. To say that they had a ‘Brandi bashing party’ is just simply false.
I think so.
It’s not Blind. We all know that Brandi has her faults and it would be ridiculous to think otherwise of her. I can only speak for myself here but To Me, she has endeared herself by being a straight shooter. Admitting her mistakes and not passing them off on to others. Lack of that kind of character is what infuriates some so much (or so I would guess) about the likes of Kyle, Jill, and others. If the cast around her had been different, it’s entirely possible we or I may see Brandi in a different light. One that isn’t so bright.
As to the fame whore comment, please tell me which of these HWs is NOT a fame whore. I think it’s a prerequisite for signing on Bravo’s dotted line. The difference between them, again, to me, is what they do with it.
My 3¢… You of course are entitled to yours.
MTH! Thank you. That’s a good point about seeing her in a light that’s not so bright.
Also, yes they are all fame whores, but maybe she just reeks of desperation to me. She’s trying to drum up support and press to get on the show next year. It seems fake and disingenuous to me.
Could be.. She is going to have to be filmed kicking her puppy across the room for me to not like her though. I think she actually wants to join the crew and probably is attempting to drum up press (and she’s doing a good job of it).
If she was that desperate then she would stay a friend of the housewives if she had to and she said she won’t do that. Guarantee Dana would. When I think of desperate I think of Dana, not Brandi. But Brandi could probably use the paycheck.
If Brandi comes across needing to be on the show, its because she does. She has two boys to take care of and unlike her ex, she isn’t marrying someone to have a free ride. Now her husband hasn’t worked so now she not only got her child support reduced, but she had to RETURN some he already paid. The guy needs to get a job!
I like Brandi and yes she has no filter and doesn’t behave in her personal life to make her look perfect like the rest-but she has no publisist, no team and just lives the way she wants. From what I can tell in RHoBH she is loyal and doesn’t take shit-that’s all I need to know about her character to tell me that she’s better than most of them, nips out or not! lol
I think Brandi’s like a new car. I like her, but who knows next season? Once her “new car smell” wears off after her second season I suspect there may be differing opinions then.
I love this comment.
love that comment too-and I love this discussion because I still haven’t made up my mind about Brandi (but I think I don’t like her) and reading this is helping me to see both sides. Sadly, that is not helping me decide because each side has valid points!
As much as I like Brandi, this is the reason I kind of want her to not be on for a second season. Go out while on top! =)
You’re absolutely not alone.
Glambot,
I respectfully disagree. I would bet almost everyone here was extremely wary of Brandi joining the cast, given her dramatic backstory. She had to prove herself to be entertaining and she did that without being cruel. We do get to compare her to the rest of the cast – and there are some pretty reprehensible characters.
It’s like RHONJ. We may not like Teresa but feel the need to defend her against the wolves. Brandi doesn’t come off like Teresa (clueless, thoughtless, grammarless), she comes off as a free spirit. We don’t want to be her, just be entertained by her on what is getting to be a very dark and disturbing show.
Rebecca, yes there was reluctance, I remember that, but still. She does some crazy stuff that would typically warent more negativity in my opinion. However! She was actually a breath of fresh air when put up aganist Taylor and that whole sad mess. I just dont get why she doesnt get criticized as much as the other ladies.
I like her, then she’ll immediately do something to make me dislike her it seems. :/
SO agree. Comparing Kandi to Brandi is insane. Kandi is a successful working mother with a career. Kandi doesn’t drink, let alone been a slurring drunken mess on the show. Twice. Kandi isn’t going off on week long f*** fests with actors too embarrassed to admit they know who she and blabbing about it on national tv. Kandi isn’t going on drunken trips to LV for publicity stunt fake marriages. Kandi isn’t fighting with a half dozen people in infantile Twitter wars. Kandi wasn’t accused on court docs of telling her daughter her father didn’t love her. Kandi didn’t slash her ex’s tires. And, Kandi’s never been arrested for a DUI.
Oh please. She is funny & pretty & single. Of course she’s entertaining in a pleasant way (unless you’re a major pearl clutcher). There’s no mean spiritedness in her (unlike, say, Kyle, Kim, Adrienne & sometimes Camille).
*yawn* I love that Brandi is upfront about her occasional skankiness. All of them are on the show for fame/attention, to single Brandi out is just ridiculous.
IA befriended Jennifer Gimenez little by little by little via Twitter and got an interview with her. I am sure the Brandi interview with her came as a result of that twitter friendship.
I just found out according to IA that she had an interview with Brandi first and then she asked Brandi to introduce her to Jennifer G.
Also while I am coming around to Brandi (still think some of the things she does is questionable but then again some things I have done in life are questionable) I hope she doesn’t get in trouble for this interview. I know Bravo likes to keep storylines and spoilers under wraps….unless they spill them. Bravo seems to be on Brandi’s butt about everything else so I hope they don’t use this against her. Not that I didn’t like the interview. Besides glossing over Taylor Brandi seemed to actually SAY things and actually mean them.
Bravo would be foolish if they don’t ask her back.
She has such a following already.
Well Bravo does some pretty foolish things. Like letting Kelly back after Scary Island. But I agree they should ask Brandi back. If only because she and Kyle will have some drama. If Kim isn’t asked back and Taylor is busy being WOE IS ME they will need some “drama”.
Great interview Lynn. It will make the reunion more interesting to watch knowing that the attack was pre-planned. I get that Adrienne is jelly, and Taylor is unpredictable and is willing to join in with any gang in order to ensure that they don’t attack her. But what’s up with Kyle. I thought she and Lisa were genuinely best friends before the show started. Oh wait -she threw her own sister under the bus. What am I asking.
Well I sure hope Brandi is on the show next year. If nothing else we know we’ll get a lot of great drama between Brandi and Kyle, and isn’t that what we all like to watch. And a lot of fun between Lisa, Brandi and Camille. It would be a good cast.
Totally agree with you about Kyle. If she can pimp out her own sister…i knew Lisa wasn’t safe. The saddest thing for me was watching Lisa defend her tooth and nail last years reunion. EVeryone was attacking Kyle because of her treatment of KIm. Lisa was the only one that put a stop to that line of questioning during the reunion and stood up for Kyle. Lisa didn’t have to do that…she was a pretty popular castmember last year as well…so there was no reason for her to stick her neck out for Kyle, but she did. When it came to game night…Lisa automatically took KYle’s side and backed her up and didn’t even ask Brandi what happened. She was a loyal friend to Kyle. During the tea party, Kyle did not defend Lisa ONCE. She just sat there and let Taylor attack. Lisa wasn’t particularly close to Adrianne, but she was close to Kyle. If i were Lisa i wouldn’t NEVER trust Kyle….and NEVER stick my neck out for her either.
I want to know what happened to Taylor wanting to be Lisa’s friend so badly, it happens and she stabs her in the back. Yet another reason to hate that lying #$%#@*.
good points about Lisa! And Kyle. Well said
Brandi broke a cardinal rule of celeb dating! You NEVER EVER NEVER call out who you slept with. This is going to hurt her, not help her. Nothing wrong with the act of the sex itself. They are both single adults, but you do not, NEVER call out a celeb you slept with. Everyone in that circle knows this and I doubt any other celeb men or women for that matter will go near her arse from this point on. GB, as a whore as he is, must be a GREAT ride in the sake for her to want to brag about it so badly. I bet she wont forget her roll in the hay with the Scotsman any time soon, but you don’t dish about it, that is so not right!
She said on twitter that the moment it left her mouth she knew she had messed up.
When men says that about women it’s “cool” but the other way around “she’s a slut!”
The double standard is indeed, sickening.
Thanks hwddict for making that point!
It was just another dumb question by Andy that started this whole thing.
That’s another thing I love about Brandi… she doesn’t play by everyone else’s unwritten rules. She’s true to herself.
Great interview. I really like Brandi and do hope Bravo brings her back next season as a housewife. She is honest and fun and the show is better with her in it. I like her relationship with Lisa and Camille, it is not fake. Also of they want drama Brandi and Kyle seem to always be getting into it.
Loved the interview Lynn, thanks.
Like many people I was prepared to dislike Brandi. I had seen the pics of her with Cedric and thought she intended to start crap with Lisa.
She was such a pleasant surprise, sweet, warm and open. Then it turns out Bravo was responsible for Cedric contacting her. And she still ends up friends with Lisa.
Kadooz to Brandi my new favorite Housewife. At least I hope she will be a Housewife.
Huge mistake if BRAVO doesn’t bring charismatic Brandi ! They need women like her and Camille. Classy, loyal and not backstabbers liars we have had enough of them!
You know who is back on twitter begging for more people to follow her.
She’ll even RT if you do.
No need to rush now.
Can I buy a vowel?
How about two consonants, Z and J?
Can I get an I and an A? … I’d like to solve the puzzle. Ooops! We cannot say that name!!!
Awesome interview!!!
It would be a BIG mistake if BRAVO doesn’t invite her on for next season. Sure, she is not the stereotypical BRAVO housewife, but neither was Bethenny!
I agree. She’s highly popular and bring the drama but not the toxicity. She’ll keep viewers entertained – isn’t that what it’s all about?
Hummmm Crap stirer Adrienne brought Brandi to the show to stir up things with Lisa (Cedric), her plan backfires: Brandi and Lisa are friends! hehehe
Funny how that happens, eh?
Haa! So true!
Yet Andrienne says Lisa stirs the pot. I find it so ODD that the friend of the housewife really never hung out with her FRIEND. At least DanaPam saw Taylor from time to time. But Andrienne gave up early on Brandi, before Brandi and Lisa got close. I wonder why she gave up on her plan.
I believe Lisa has an Iago in Cedric. I think he’s been backstabbing Lisa for a long time and Bernie the Angry Chef is his creature, both telling key people Lisa said this, Lisa did that, sharing private convo’s she may have had with Cedric about others, twisting it to make her look bad. Cedric is now openly the source for lots of gossip mag articles since he got kicked out of SUR. Maybe he was the actual source for the gossip mag article that got Russ so upset at Lisa, and it was Cedric who told them it was Lisa. I think he gets paid by these rags for gossip. He could have worked with Taylor to bring Lisa down. Taylor and Cedric are both pure viper.
This is a good interview with Brandi, Lynn. When she got gang-bullied by the punk Richards sisters and became the underdog, how could we not pull for her? She’s messy, but she doesn’t pull punches, she’s funny and honest, and she didn’t let those hypocritical, Night-In-Paris’s aunts intimidate her. That’s what won me over. I. can’t. stand. bullies.
Thank you Lynn for sharing with us this interview with Brandi! Excellent! I could even hear Brandi’s voice and accent in her answers, love Brandi!
Maybe this was already talked about, but I thought that Kandi was single mother, never married… if that is the case WHAT is the difference judging a divorcee dating and not a single-never married mother? Pure stupidity!
Well done, Lynn. golf clap. I like Brandy and I like the questions you asked her. I wonder how she knew about the setup from Kyle, Adrianne and Taylor? Did they invite her in on the plan?
I think Lisa is so much brighter than the rest ( Brandi is very bright as well) that they finally gave up trying to out maneuver her and tried to take her down. Bad move on Kyle’s part. IMO Adrianne and Taylor are not relevant to the show. Most of Adrianne’s filming was with Kim–hello? And everyone knows if Paul wasn’t around A would not have been invited back this year. Zzzzzzzzz….
Does Lisa really have her own show coming to Bravo or is that a rumor @ this point?
There is no way Kyle will let Kim not be invited back. How would she herself continue to have angst and relevance? And who else can she be superior to? Her dress is awful on the reunion— Bea Arthur hand-me-down– (no disrespect to Bea intended)
I think she has told Taylor so many ugly things about Kim that Taylor called it open season –the first season. SHAME to KYLE and I don’t even like Kim very much.
BTW: No one knows for sure that Brandi got on the show by befriending Cedric. I call BS on that whole idea. Sure, maybe Bravo producers told them to have lunch together. But I asssure you Brandi did not get on the show by befriending Cedric. They were never friends in the first place.
Are you feeling better?
Yes, Nancy. I appreciate your asking.
Last week I had a throat infection I actually had minor surgery on Friday afternoon. I didn’t want to make a big whoop about it on this blog. I don’t like to tell too much here even though everyone is nice. You never know if someone like LR is lurking. Lol. I have antibiotics and hydrocodone so I am good for now.
How are you doing?
Hope it wasn’t anything too serious. Glad to know you are feeling better.
Who is LR?
Leann Rimes maybe?
WOW!! team Brandi I wonder how happy Bravo EXC will be with Brandi leaking information from the reunion show she wants to come back dosen’t sound like she is a team player .Lisa better be careful picking her friends after Cedric she is not a great judge of character Brandi flirts a little much with Ken,I know the other ladies don’t have to worry about their husbands as Brandi would say”I WILL KILL YOU”. Can’t wait to see how long this friendship will last.
Huh?
Ditto!
Sorry don’t agree at all about the flirting with Lisa’s husband…that is innocent fun and out in the open. If Lisa was truly worried, trust me it would not be happening at all. Lisa knows how to open her mouth and nip things in the bud.
I think she has fun with Brandi flirting with Ken. I think Ken is sweet and adores his Lisa and his family. Brandi is an open type woman and supposedly Adrienne got her on the show; and then dumped her with the likes of the Ricards witches. Brandi did not have an easy road on this program from the beginning. Remember Dr. P’s words an attractive young woman is not readily welcome into groups. Kyle with those Bea (love that analogy)Arthur clothes needs to get a clothing makeover. Now I don’t know how anyone can fix her rotten disposition/personality. I happen to like Brandi very much and think she is a breath of fresh air on this program. Give her a break she was also humiliated by her slime bag ex and the teeny eyed ex country singer Le Ann who bought him. She probably makes out the checks for the child support – and I hope she pays throught the nose big time. I saw Ms. Rimes on TV last night on HG and she is yucky big time. I have never liked her, but now after reading how she went after a married man – she can just jump off the face of the earth and it wouldn’t matter one iota. I am ream Brandi all the way! Plus Lisa and Camille!!!!
lol, huh? You *really* think Brandi’s gonna go after Ken? I think she’s good. I love that Brandi and Lisa are friends now, they’re adorable.
LOL VAlleyVal,
double huh??
I am watching (out of desperation) Celebrity Cook-Off for the first time. Has anyone seen this?
Taylor Dane had an amazing voice in the 80′s. I haven’t seen her in ages. She looks like a plastic surgery “dont’” and sounds like a Mob Wife. Ugh.
Yeah. Been watching it since it started. I blame mom since she likes the hosts. I personally dislike Rachel and Guy. Lou seems like he knows his way around the kitchen so does Cheech. There are two new episodes on tonight. I use them as “fall asleep tv”. I can’t wait for Worst Cooks in America to be back in a few weeks.
I tolerate Rachel and Guy. They are quasi likable but cooks and not chefs. It’s the personalites of the “celebs” and not the hosts which make the show somewhat entertaining.
Wow, Lynn! Super job on that interview! Great interview with a great subject who actually answers your questions…a marvel in this day and age. Congrats for landing this big one as well writing such a readable article. She’s the Bethanney Frankel of the BH chain…not rich, not leaning on anyone, but she’s got what it takes to succeed with her integrity in tact. I hope she’s asked back so we can enjoy another truth teller on Real Housewives. And how great was it that she cleared up that gossip about Bravo arranging the plots…hmm, interesting.
IceMeNot,
Did you watch the pairs and the mens?
Also, this was a great ad for the Reunion! No one at Bravo could possibly be upset with this mild story…now we’re even more invested, I want to see how they attack Lisa…poor Taylor who desperately wanted Lisa to be her friend. Lynn this is like the pre-review in the newspaper that gets people to watch…the age of freedom of the press on the internet.
If Andy doesn’t want Brandi back, then what she’s told us here doesn’t make sense!
WOuldn’t it be cool if Bravo fired all the HW’s and started over with brand new faces for all the series. It would be cheaper for them and people will toon in for fresh faces, new plots, and interesting personalities.
I think the length of each housewife should be two (depending if they need to rap up storylines). Once they have reached there mark and ENTIRE new cast will be introduced at the same time. Shows like survivor, big brother, amazing race etc do this all the time and are super sucessful. I know the housewives isn’t a game show, but i think it would be nice to get introduced to new faces more often. I always get sucked into big brother and invested in survivor….but once it ends and new season begins….new attachments and investments begin. It doesn’t get old because the next cast has a new interesting dynamic that keeps me coming back year and year.
Maybe this would slow down the inflated egos, decrease the contrived faked storylines, and would keep the show fresh. I feel many of these series are recycled drama carried over season after season. Some of the wives are overstaying the welcome. JUst a thought
You make a great point Mel. I think specifically Orange County needs to wipe the slate clean and start fresh for sure! Talk about overstaying their welcome…Vicki! haha
For some reason I’m not so sure with some of the other, obviously I wouldn’t want to lose some of my favorites but they should give it a try with one series and see how it goes.
I think the ladies do change, I call it “Season Two Disease”. Some in a good way (Camille) and others in a really bad way (NeNe) I really miss season one NeNe, she was hysterical! She still has glimpses of that genius wit but the mean girl has come out.
For some reason Bravo won’t lose those OC women, particularly Vicki who is really boring! Who wants to watch this woman sell insurance, go to Seattle for an insurance conference and scream Woohoo every 5 minutes.
Rant over
OMG, I’m with you re: Vicki. Why oh WHY is she still on the show? Sorry, but that miss piggy nose drives me crazy. And the “woooohooooo”….I might break my tv if she busts that one out this season
I love the whole “let’s not discuss these people with each other” then they run to the other person and spill the beans on MobWives.
emt,
I’m watching it too. They are all crazy!
Definitely. Carla was a rat for getting Renee involved.
Ladies (and Mel):
I don’t know if it’s because I am in a weakened state but I cannot watch the violence and hatred of Mob Wives.( I am trying)
You ladies seem so nice on this blog. What, praytell, is the appeal of these awful women?
They all seem like they are fresh out of prison.
Isn’t that the million dollar question!
That really is the million dollar question, I think (in my case anyway) I find it fascinating to see how other people live, so different from us and to try to imagine what it would be like to live a life like that. They have strikes against them the minute they’re born, obviously there are benefits to their lifestyle but the drawbacks are huge. Anyway, I think that’s why I watch

New Blog – Let’s Chat Real Housewives of Atlanta!
Lynn I love your investigative reporting. How smart to get the 2 time frames. Love the preview of the reunion. U r a star. Ilana’s interview reflected her chilDish vision that the interview was about ilana and therefore we got the unwanted feelings and impressions of ilana and little content.
Lynn where were u when u call her? The grocery?
Lynn u r great. The interview has inspired fabulous chat above. I tend to agree w/Christine.
I stopped and thought, would I want Brandi to be my child’s Godmother ? Nope. I think she does drugs to stay stick thin.
It takes one to know one and Brandi called Kim out.
See u after the reunion!
Hugs
WSL
WSL,
I called Kim out and I don’t do drugs
Give Brandi a chance!!!
I wouldn’t hesitate one moment to have Brandi as my childs godparent. I think she is great and a breath of fresh air. I was really surprised by your take. Some people are just super skinny; doesn’t necessarily mean they take drugs. Brandi is an original this season and hopefully she stays the way she is.
If things go the way she said on the reunion – there are going to be a lot of people up in arms with the 3 witches -kyle, lips mcgee, ad. At least Brandi has a sense of loyalty which to me exemplifies integrity. JMHO
Really surprised at your comment that Brandi stays thin by doing drugs. I don’t remember seeing any evidence of that on the show, and really don’t think it’s true. She is the mother of two young boys. I don’t think posting a comment like that without proof is right, but I guess if it is your opinion, you have the right to say it. I don’t agree.
Yeah, I’m calling bullshit on that one too.
I like your line, I’m standing with you…I’m calling bullshit on that one as well. Brandi is my type of woman, the type I would be friends with, as well as Lisa
and feel very comfortable with both of them. Also if Brandi was doing some sort of drugs, her ex and his pos wife would have gone for custody of those boys big time.
Lips McGee, lol!
Yeah, well, there’s no evidence of Brandi on speed . But certainly, as a former model, she’s acquainted. I think she said her b.f. Jennifer, the drug counselor now, went to rehab on Brandi’s insisitence. One thing about Brandi, she’s like Mae West, only. Mae West who swings with men and women. Brandi does not act ashamed of herself and always owns her misbehavior, so as long as I could count on her to own up, I could ask her to be godmother of my….ummm, my cats? She makes me laugh…on that plane ride, reminding me of times I got “relaxed” to fly….even when raising a family! She was adorable and quite harmless.
GREAT interview! Sounds like she’s everything she shows herself to be on the show. I definitely believe she’s not fake at all… she’s like Bethenny in that way. Says what she thinks because it’s the truth. I really like Brandi, I like her attitude and she seems like a compassionate, caring person who’s not me me me like some others we know.
I think Mauricio said Brandi was his least favorite simply because that’s what Kyle would want him to say. I think he really likes Brandi but he likes his wife more… God only knows why.
… because that’s what HE KNEW Kyle would want him to say.
and he prob forgot Dana existed/was an option
I still think there is more to that story than just Mauricio naming Brandi because of Kyle. I’m not liking Mauricio either…I’m seeing another side of him too. I follow him on Twitter.
Kyle did not like Brandi from the beginning. If you watch Game Night episode again, you will notice that when Kim was introduced to Brandi. Kim was very cordial and nice to Brandi. There was no animosity. Kyle must have told her something throughout the night.
I still think there’s history there from prior to Brandi joining RHOBH… I just don’t know what it is…
Wow this made me like Brandi even more, Team Brandi/Lisa all the way…I’ve been a Kyle apologist all season b/c i understand how it is to be family with an addict and be codependent, but I can’t stand how she treated Lisa. I read somewhere that Kyle has a lot of pull on Beverly Hills, but I hope that doesn’t give Taylor too much of a leg up with coming back next season. Fingers and toes crossed that they make Brandi full time her and Lisa would be hilarious and I think it’ll drive Kyle crazy, she definitely picked the wrong team…now we just need to get Denise Richards on board
Deidra ( Camille’s friend ) Interview. I’m not sure this was posted already, but here it goes…
http://www.examiner.com/tv-in-nashville/interview-dedra-whitt-from-real-housewives-of-beverly-hills
Adrienne wants to be known as the Queen Bee.
Sure, the Queen Bee of her 8% fans.
Hi Lynn, thanks for a GREAT informative interview with Brandi. Thanks for giving us the dirt and actual quotes from her. I recently read an interview with her that was completely someones opinion of her, but no facts or quotes from brandi to support the article, frustrating. Again, great job..
We must have read the same article, Denise. I was just thinking the same thing.
Great article. New name, I know–I am not a frequent visitor to this site but the interview caught my eye. I adore Brandi and I really hope they bring her back this year. It would be stupid not to IMO but of course Bravo doesn’t always make the most logical choices. Thanks for posting this, nice to see an interview w/Brandi that doesn’t sound totally fake, lol.
Ok, last comment I promise. I am still LOLing that Kyle really tried to bash Brandi’s parenting. I have little girls, and they love “nature peeing”…is it gross, yes but it doesn’t make someone a shitty parent. Personally, I don’t think Kyle has a lot of room to talk..
As a parent myself, I’m not going throw stones.
What I’ve noticed is mothers of boys are diff than us moms with girls.
And if you grew up with brothers then had boys, it goes double.
Same with sisters then all girls.
Voila Kyle is prissy while Brandi less squeamish.
Anyway, Kyle is real girly with her tears, overreactions, love of gossip.
Life’s long, lessons are learned slowly, it’s hard to keep your head on straight while being married, raising kids, i.e., chauffering on your expanding butt all day, running a business or going to work. i find it’s much easier to stay balanced once the kids are grown.
I have 2 boys and grew up with 4 brothers, so when Brandi’s little boy did his thing didn’t think nothing of it. But Kyle made an event out of it, to much drama over a 4 yr old doing his thing on the lawn. At Kyles age she should have more common sense she criticizes Brandi but does not criticize her sister Kathy for the upbringing of Paris with one is worse Ms. Kyle peeing on the lawn or a sex tape and drugs?.
LOL you’re so right!!
The over reaction from kyle on that one is what turned me off. It was off camera and Kyle could have ignored the whole thing. She overlooked far more serious behavior as the season progressed yet the peeing on the lawn was HORRIFIC !
haha, right?! Look at the clusterf**k that is Season 2, and Kyle chooses to make an issue about a little boy peeing in the grass. Yes, that’s really whats important…. /sarcasm
Great interview! I hope Brandi is back as a fulltime housewife next season on RHOBH, she makes the show watchable. Everyone else is fake, Brandi keeps things real, imo.
I love Brandi
Me too.
Brandi is the breath of fresh air that tired old RHoBH needed – and continues to need.
Pingback: Brandi Glanville talks about RHOBH Season 3, the Lisa Vanderpump Reunion ambush, Gerard Butler and more! Starcasm.net
Brandi Glanville is such a hypocritical bitch. She bitches all day about Kyle being catty, but the only person running around doing interview to bash Kyle and act petty IS BRANDI. She calls Dana pathetic and desperate to get back on the show next season, but all Brandi does is fight on twitter with others and her cast mates in order to remain relevant. Brandi is just as desperate, if not more, than Dana to get back on the show.
Everything is ALWAYS Kyle’s fault according to Brandi. Just because Kyle was sober doesn’t make her responsible for her sister’s behavior. Just because Brandi was picked on at Game Night doesn’t make Kyle a bully and Brandi the victim. FYI Brandi, Kyle never would’ve gotten into it with Brandi if Brandi didn’t call Kyle a “bitch” and then proceed to call Kim a meth head. Can Brandi NEVER take any responsibilities for what she does? Everything is “Kyle’s fault… Kyle did this, Kyle did that.” Umm…pretty freaking sure BRANDI WAS AT FAULT TOO.
And ALL the ladies have already confirmed via twitter and DM that NONE OF THEM MET TO BASH ON LISA. That’s such a crock of bull. Of course Brandi is so far up Lisa’s ass because Lisa is the most popular, well-liked housewife. Why wouldn’t Brandi want to get in “gud” with Lisa and pretend to defend her and say the others met beforehand to bash Lisa?
Brandi is trashy and a liar. Her true colors will be exposed soon just as everyone else.
I’m not personally invested in this, so this reply will be short. Kyle was being a bitch to Brandi BEFORE B made any comments about Kim. And lets be real, Kim was acting shady…clearly she was doing SOMETHING in the bathroom. It is such an elephant in the room, I probably would have said something too.
Regardless–was Brandi’s comment “right”? No, but Kyle was a major bitch to her from the moment she met here. Some women are just too insecure, and Kyle is one of them. She sees a woman who is prettier, younger and has a better body than her–and for that reason she hates. Sad.
AMEN. Finally someone other then myself feels the exact same way about Brandi. I think Brandi is such a bitch and she is completely two faced. You are so correct ” Not a BG Fan ” when you say all she does is bash Kyle. She has done it since day one… I sure hope they dont bring her back for next year.

Dear Kyle…i mean “not a big fan”
I read your post and couldn’t help but feel like you are taken this a bit personal. You failed to mention any of Kyle’s bad behavior…almost glazing over it the way you feel people have glazed over Brandi’s behavior. Seems a bit hypocrtical to me. I don’t agree with Brandi or Kyle 100 percent of the time. However, i do believe Brandi has tried on numerous occasions to squash the drama with the sisters…..even when they failed to take responsibility for their parts. From questioning her parenting, to making fun of her boobs on game night, to giving a half-ass version on what really happen on game night to Lisa…Kyle is no angel. They spent the whole evening making fun of Brandi…so i can understand why she got fed up and reacted. I don’t think it was right for Brandi to call Kim that….but anyone with half a brain could see that Kim was not in the right frame of mind the entire season. The beef that i have with Kyle is her ability to attack people…and expect for them not to react. Don’t dish it if you can’t take it. Brandi is direct and does not seem to take BS from anyone. She treated Brandi like crap the moment she met her…..went as far as getting into a huddle and talking shiit about her before even meeting her. So Kyle gets as good as she gives.
Yup….Kyle is used to everyone cowering before her. I’m glad Brandi stands up to her….stark contrast to “Pam” the kiss-ass
I don’t like or trust Brandi. Interesting how upset she was that her husband had an affair while they were married, yet she latches onto Ken, and it was for real. She was after his money, blatently, right in front of Lisa. There’s nothing worse than a woman who will take another woman’s man, married or not. She’s trashy, and I don’t blame that man for not wanting to associate his name with hers. Don’t forget, she got married this year (2012) already, and the next day, the guy wanted an annulement.
I doubt very much Brandi latched onto Ken “for real” It was, imo, a joke. And Lisa was going along with it as well.
Oh please. The girl didn’t “latch on” to Ken, nor did she seem interested in hooking up w/him. If Lisa is okay with it, why on earth should you NOT be?
On a side note, I am so jealous of everyone else’s quilts…is there any way to change mine? LOL
I think they’re random. You can pick a photo to put there.
It seemed obvious to me, but that whole flirting with Ken was a joke. I doubt Lisa would befriend a woman who was actually trying to steal her husband.
The Las Vegas wedding was a goof since there was no marriage license involved.
THANK YOU! I didn’t think anyone with the slightest HINT of common sense would take the flirting seriously. Yah, Lisa’s really gonna befriend a woman who is hitting on her husband… oooook.
Not to mention, lets be honest here, Brandi’s HOT. You really think she’d go for Ken of all men? Come on.
While I agree Brandi was teasing Ken, I don’t think it’s fair to say someone who disagrees lacks common sense.
I don’t see what’s so hard to understand about why so many people like Brandi. She’s likable. I like her. Those with such strong opinions against her are either jealous of her, or she reminds them of someone they don’t like. She hasn’t even done anything to not like….yet!
Who knows how Bravo will edit her in the future, but right now, she’s very refreshing and entertaining. This show would be much more of a snoozefest if it weren’t for her.
Agree. I had just about given up on RHOBH, and then Brandi showed up. She was the comic relief/’lightness’ in a very dark, depressing season. I don’t get the hate either, and I’m usually not one to jump on the “you’re jealous” wagon, but I agree…
I don’t know if I think Brandi is a breath of fresh air or an irresponsible air head, but loved the interview and the GREAT comments. Many arguments for both sides of the Brandi coin. I don’t think I’ll know for sure for another season. I just have a feeling she is one of those people that you have to know for a while before you really “know” them

Oops, this posted in the wrong place. That was in reply to “lovemamaearth” above, sorry
Lol, your name is funny. What does it mean? I mean, I know what phalange means but is there a story?
Its a name that Phoebe from Friends used as her “fake name” in Vegas. I’m just a big old Friends dork. And I got my little quilt to change from adding another email addy to my gravatar acct and using it to comment. yay!
Oh thank goodness. After I typed my comment I thought, omg, what if that’s her real name? Open mouth, insert foot!
Best of luck. You can see I’m too much of a luddite to do it. And welcome if you’re new here.

Great interview! Women love Brandi because we can relate to her. I know that I have drank too much on an airplane. I have slept with my fair share of people (and have opened up my fat mouth about it when I shouldn’t have.) I swear like a sailor because “fuck” is the best word of all time. But, I am also very loyal to my family and friends and am (overly) honest. It’s nice to see Bravo put a hotter version of me on RHOBH. (Plus, she and Lisa are funny…so few of the HW are.)

There is so much I want to say about the reunion but I will start slow.
First, Brandi wrote on her blog at Brovo that she had no contact with the ladies after wrapping. She doesn’t make that claim with Camille.
Second, Brandi claimed she heard about the meeting.
Third, she says…other than Camille the others got together.
I think Camille told Brandi about this so called meeting to fire up Brandi or Brandi is in fact a liar and made it up. Did Brandi warn Lisa?
Brandi tweeted the answers to your questions. Check her timeline. Don’t know if she warned Lisa. She did mention Mondays episode will answer more questions.
In case you haven’t read it either, she tweeted Adrienne about having lunch tomorrow to clear straighten this mess.
Thank you. I read what Lynn posted this morning as well. Thank you Lynn.
DID BRANDI WARN LISA? Someone ask Lisa that question and post reponse here. I dont have twitter acct. Thanks
I believe Brandi hands down. That whole thing was a rigged set up to trash Lisa, and keep the focus of Trailor and Kyle’s DECADES LONG DRUNK of a sister, Kim.
Brandi is such a fake. Ppl are so snowed by her just like they were by Kyle, and I said Kyle turned me off right away by declaring her sister is her burden (first epi) b/c her mother told her to take of her on her death bed, which we later learned was Kyle twisting her words. No one who does that in my book deserves any kind of sympathy, and then she stole Kim’s house from her. What a joy of a sister.
The reason she and Kyle don’t get along is because they are both desperate to remain relevant ANY way possible. If you need more proof, just look at her begging ppl who have offers to contact her agent after her set-up marriage in LV. Brandi is out for herself. She doesn’t have enough class to act like a lady and a MOTHER knowing her kids could see this or worse suffer abuse by others b/c she has NO class on national television. Brandi is no spring chicken either, so that excuse of her young doesn’t fly with me.
As for her little declaration on Andy’s show, she was grinning like a Cheshire cat as Andy was suddenly interested in her, and if she felt so bad about it, why did she keep talking on and on about it? She is so full of it. It backfired on her b/c quite frankly CLASSY ppl with a sense of dignity don’t spill their personal business w/out the other individual’s consent. This isn’t a classy person, and I do NOT relate to that type of person.
As for Kim, Brandi has been bashing her ALL over the place which by the way if Kim wanted to she could file a lawsuit against her for this crap, but Kim isn’t going to do that. Brandi hasn’t stopped chattering away about Kim’s business, and IF Kim had done the same, I would be all for Brandi’s bash fest. Instead, this is ALL one-sided from a desperate fame whore.
She whines and moans about HER kids, but she didn’t care as she spread lies about Kim’s “meth” habit all over the place, and who is she to judge taking drugs as well and getting wasted and acting like a fool. NO ONE.
I have family members who take a cocktail of drugs like Kim was on for anxiety, and you do act that way. Doctors can spend YEARS trying to get the right level. I’m more of an expert than this moron. What kind of education does Brandi have anyways? We never hear anything of substance from this crass individual.
Also, Brandi whines and moaned about her marriage to Eddie and everything, but she has a little ex-bff’s husband that she fake married in LV, and she bashed this poor woman who could be on drugs or not on Twitter. I’m so sensitive to drug addicts. Sure you are. That was her best friend’s husband she married in that quickie marriage. I wish they would cast that woman because eventually if she does remain Bravo will destroy her.
What kind of person is she? She seems very cruel to me, and she likes to pick at others faults but doesn’t look at herself. I think I am sensing now why Eddie kept her around, and it wasn’t for anything other than probably her body b/c she has nothing else to offer.
Kyle/Brandi disgust me. I don’t like either of them. I’d rather Kim return along with Camille (who has a storyline with her new beau). I really wonder what kind of ppl like her b/c I know my bff and I don’t, and if you saw Lisa never touch her ONCE on WWHL, you would see Lisa is faking that and good for her. She doesn’t need more crap from idiots.
Brandi is the worst kind of individual. She was a model who is now aging and desperate to stay in the limelight instead of getting a real job and some education. Lord knows that would at least be something interesting to watch, but she is boring, bland personality who thinks cursing and talking about sex with almost strangers is cute. These women weren’t her friends when she acted that way. Bravo better think twice about bringing her back b/c this love affair is going to backfire as it did with Kyle.
Peeing in the grass is a common practice of gardeners. Really! It adds essential nitrogen to the roots and makes it greener. People put pee on their grass and plants on purpose. I thought it was mean to make such a deal of that to her. And it only made the other housewives look really bad in their own parenting. Everybody knows you can’t be negative to a young boy about his bathroom habits if you expect him to do it right eventually.
My two cents, anyway.
Little boys peeing on grass has been around since little boys and grass.
