Just finished RHoNY:

Loved loved LOVED Jill's birthday party! It just reeked of old skool New York with the whole theatre district vibe and feathers and plumes and taking place at Chez Josepehine. I used to attend lectures from Jospehine Baker's son Jean-Claude at Miami Beaches Art Deco Weekend- he is so colorful and dramatic and does such a wonderful job of keeping his mother's legacy alive and in tact . Needless to say I wanted to punch Romona for going off at the mouth yet again . So what the space was narrow, she couldn't loosen up for one second and see the environment for what it was intended and enjoy it? That heffa is so one-dimensional she gives me a headache. Then the putting on the red wig and imitating Jill screaming "BOBBY, I WANT BIGGER DIAMONDS!" just because she thought the party was boring? She coulda kept her ass at home, and I don't begrudge Jill AT ALL for not inviting her to her focus group before

...and WTF is up with her and the WINE??? You know these shows are shot over a really short period of time, and tough we see episodes weekly, the events are usually just spread out over a matter of days...and every episode (which is usually just a time span of a few days) is Ramona freaking out if she can't get some booze in her clutches. I don't care what anybody says, I've been around enough lushes to know a drunk when I see one. I don't care how she and her friends try to spin it

Alex and Simon. Just ugh. Again.

2nd Place Stand-Up Husband Award for this reality cycle goes to Bobby Zarin: I LOVED that he stepped to Simon like a man, told him what the deal was, offered very quietly to settle it if needed, and made sure that not only do they now have an understanding, but he made his ass shake on it so that Simon had full comprehension that he was going to give him benefit of the doubt this time. Jill, you married a good man. Meanwhile, we see from next week's promos that Simon is going to try to step to Jill...like the punk that he is. Didn't have sh*t to say to her husband, but now he wants to pull her aside and talk when he's not around. The mess was already settled at the Sweet 16 and doesn't need re-hashing

I agree about Ramona and that need for her Pinot Grigio or whatever it is. Every single episode this hooker whining about her damn wine and where it's at. And she was definitely classless when she mocked Jill at her own birthday party. I would have took that as Ramona being jealous and kindly would have had her escorted out. I don't really care for Jill anyway because she acts like a whiny brat and wants someone to "rescue" her everytime her feelings are hurt

As far as Bobby goes, its extremely wonderful to have a husband who has his wife's back, I mean that is, in my opinion, a major part of a husband's job anyway, but I don't know how I feel about him confronting Simon at a birthday party about something that he wanted confirmation on. I mean it could had been a thing of, getting it out the way because it was eating at him and wanted the path to be free and clear of his doubts, but I thought that whole scene was sort of staged. Now as far as Simon goes, there is no need in any way to confront Jill with something Bobby approached him about. That should have stayed between him and Bobby. So that part I definitely think is not cool. Real men handle problems between themselves and don't bring extra people into it if possible so in this case, its very possible as you have said that Simon was just doing this for screen time but in all honesty, I think all of them do things for extra screen time set up by the producers of the show.

Look at Jen goin' "skiing". MAJOR upgrade from ol' knot-head, I'll give her that much!

Laura Govan, Gilbert Arenas’s ex, joins cast of “Basketball Wives LA”

By The Reliable Source

Laura Govan looking like... well, a reality star and ex-girlfriend of an NBA player. ( Jonavennci Divad )

The on-again/off-again relationship of Gilbert Arenas and his girlfriend/babymama Laura Govan played like a reality show, so it was probably inevitable that it would end up on television.

Govan has joined the cast of “Basketball Wives LA,” VH1’s spinoff of the hit series about the wives, girlfriends and exes of NBA players. Also on the show: Govan’s younger sister Gloria, who appeared on the first season and is long-term engaged to Matt Barnes of the Lakers.

“I just wanted to showcase a new chapter in my life,” Govan told us Monday. “A fresh start, a fresh outlook on life as a single mom.”

Not just any single mom: She gave birth just three weeks ago to son Aloni, her fourth child with Arenas. The two broke up six months ago (he was traded to Orlando, she went to L.A.) and are locked in a contentious child support case. Govan said she and Gilbert “don’t communicate” but are working “for the best interests” of the children.

Is it wise to go on a reality show amid all of that?

It’s certainly not a problem for VH1. The ongoing drama, executive producer Noah Pollack said, “is really pretty powerful stuff.” Teaming up with Gloria sealed the deal: “The fact that they’re sisters is a great, great story for us.”

The show, which debuts in late August, started filming just before the baby was born. Pollack calls Govan a “spark plug” who doesn’t hold back and can really drive a story. “I just showcase who I am,” she said. “My needs, my wants, my frustrations.”

But that didn’t work for Allison Mathis, ex of Miami Heat forward Chris Bosh. The two are suing each other: She was part of the cast of “Basketball Wives” until Bosh went to court claiming she was infringing on his name. Mathis claims she was dropped from the cast and is now countersuing for damages.

Govan told us she wasn’t worried about Arenas trying to block her appearance on the show: “Whatever happens happens.”

This is where I'm confused: I'm curious if Shaunie O'neil is an exec-producer of this show too, because if so, I don't understand how or why she indulges having her own nemises on the show...and a spin-off at that? I know she's making a pretty penny off of these chicks and their willingness to show their ass on national tv, but it's no secret that she and Gloria hate each other, and Gloria's sister is allegedly Shaq's former mistress (one of 'em, anyway). Surrounding oneself with all of that messiness is just a very bizarre way to make money to me

What's up with her boob? It looks like a rock.

Dude is cute but uh....what kind of money is he making? She might have to go from hanging with Ev and Shaunie to hanging with Royce and Tami. From Bergdorf's to JC Penny.

Basketball Wives’ Star Jennifer Williams Has A New Man

Sun, Jun 26 2011 by Necole Bitchie | Filed Under: Celebrities

Basketball Wives star Jennifer Williams’ is finally moving on from her hubby Eric Williams. I spotted Jen at the BET Awards Radio Room yesterday evening and she was with her new man, Lucas who is a celebrity trainer/nutritionist. I immediately asked her, “So Jennifer, what’s up with this Ken and Barbie moment we have going on here???” and if she could have turned red, she would have. She was blushing very hard while I hounded her with questions, like “Is he going to be on the show (she answered ‘no’…or at least not this season)” and if that was indeed her new boo.

We spotted them again last night at the BMI event at Mr. Chows and they looked very happy together. Woop Woop! He’s cute. Get it boo!

Well, if we know Jen, the dude must be doin' all right in the finance department. She seems like she doesn't deal with anything uncouth. Of course, her track record doesn't say this, but I think she's learned her lesson from that....hopefully!

LMAO @ "uncouth". My mind went str8 to those nekid cell phone pics of her. Shady lady.

Too funny!!!!

Okay so have y'all hookers been watching Mob Wives lately?

Okay so here is my take on it. Karen and Drita supposedly made up a couple of episodes ago over the argument of Karen feeling offended about the past when Drita first started dating Lee. Okay so they supposedly squashed the conflict, were friends again......until Karen gave Drita a draft of her first chapter of her book to read. Now why in the world did Karen do that shit. Stupid is, as stupid does I guess. Okay so instead of Drita telling Karen "no I'm not interested in reading it" she takes the chapter, doesn't read it, then talks shit about Karen to all of her friends about how all of sudden she doesn't trust her. Lawd. Karen, wondering why Drita hasn't been returning her phone calls or given her feedback about her chapter starts to feel the negativity. In the meanwhile Drita finds out that Lee (which I didn't find too surprising) was cheating on her the last time he was out from jail. C'mon Drita, didn't you learn in "Goodfellas" that most mob men have their goomahs on the side? Gathering from the stress of that revelation, she decides to get all the ladies together to rehash the whole Lee/Karen, Lee/Drita circa 10 years ago discussion. Naturally it gets heated and then Drita tries to act all like she's a bad bitch while on top of Renee while Karen is underneath her. Lawd again. I'm still over what they really was throwing blows about. We find out that Karen is just a common whore. So still why was Drita so mad and kept talking in circles? Who gives a fuck about Lee? My opinion? I'm thinking Drita was feeling really foolish defending her two-timing jail bound hubby up and down, backwards and forwards when he really doesn't give a fuck about her. I figured that out after the extremely disrespectful and abusive way he talked to her on the phone earlier in the season. Instead of calling the ladies together, she should had paid a visit to the jail and unleashed all her pent up anger, frustration and disappointment on Lee and not Karen. Just straight kicked his ass while he thinks they meeting for a conjugal. Just sayin'.

Watching NJ now, and I can't believe Teresa is actually being the mature, sensible one in that discussion with Melissa triflin ass. Teresa was sincerely trying to move forward while Melissa just kept mean muggin' and rolling her fuckin eyes

The whole cabin scene was hilarious. I love me some Joe Giudice and holla'd when he told Teresa he tells her she gives a good BJ while she's doing it but she ain't that good.

They both some fools but you can tell they really love each other, crazy asses!

They looked like they had fun but where da hell did all them fools sleep???

[Edited 6/27/11 16:27pm]

And so on to RHONJ....straight boring this week. Not much to say. Glad Teresa took the classy approach while talking with Melissa who came ready to be defensive right off the bat. However, I'm mad at how Melissa downplayed her and Teresa's newfound agreement to be cordial with each other and try to make an effort to get along for their children's sake when she told her sister that their conversation wasn't really all that cracked up to be. She's so two faced, urgh. She's too busy competing with Teresa which is the problem. Other than that, this episode was boring. Spending time in the dead of winter in a cabin in the middle of nowhere getting drunk and shooting guns into the air is hardly my idea of a good time. And that is all.

Exactly. Melissa just proved in this episode that it's her that wants to keep stirring the pot. And her sister pisses me the fuck off, she's forever instigating the family conflicts. It's almost like she lives to be negative, like she actually enjoys it.

Agreed, not my idea of fun either BUT it was nice to take a break from all the exkraness and drama and just see them all relate to each and be goofy for a change.

Another ploy for more air time. With her tacky, blue eyeshadow wearing ass. She looks like Joan Cusack in Working Girl.

Joe Guidice and Chris Manzo are looking GOOD as of late - in a guido kind of way that is. Something about those jersey boy accents and those muscles and the fact that they like to ride ATVs at night is just sexxxaayyyy!!!

I get the feeling they'd shank a dude if he disrespected you.

I can't remember the last time, maybe since season 1, where there was an ep with everyone just chilling rather than a continuous ride on the drama train. You're either leaving Dramaville or heading to Confrontation City. This was a nice departure.

But I will need them to bring the heat next week

Joe is my dude tho. First, why Chris all up in they bidness axin' bout Teresa's Xmas budget. But Joe was like, "She's working, I ain't gon' tell her not to spend. What I care? It's Xmas."

True, even Joe Gorga's cute. Gia looks JUST like her uncle unibrow and all.

And Chris is Laurita. Remember, Chris, Caroline, and Dina are siblings. Caroline and Dina married brothers and became Manzos. That tickles me for some reason.

And why everyone of these shows gotta have a roast pig???

Damn, they like to eat, makin me hongree an' shit!

Their split competition . . .

Joe, you spread really easy . . . I do.

What the hell was with those performances??? Love Kathy's hubby tho, he's deliciously inappropriate and don't give a fuck. Love their son too, he's just like his dad with his cute lil self. But why Antonia dancing with a grown ass man???

These muhhfuckas truly have their own version of English cuz not a single ep goes without one of these fools mangling the English language.

This week's NJ-ism from Teresa: It was like, 5th Ave inraided the Catskills.

I don't know what's more frightening, Teresa's grammar or her notion that she actually reps 5th Ave in this equation.

I'm reminded of when she said "cleanziness" on the season 1 reunion.

English must truly be her second language.

Aah so Laurita is the maiden name of Caroline and nem. Ok. I get confused with these sibling marrying siblings. That shit don't sound right in my mind.

Chile thanks for clearing that up because trying to figure that shit out was like trying to solve a damn rubics cube It's simple but for some reason it seems complicated, none the less, they all seem happy in their marriages...which is a good thing. I can say this franchise definitely isn't divorce happy like the others. No matter the drama involved, all the hubby's seem to have their wives backs to a tee.

For me it was the fact that she was reppin' 5th Ave. I kept trying to fry my brain to see how they all could remotely be representing a 5th Ave. click.

Yes Joe Gorga is more like the dumb blonde in the family. Maybe thats why he lets his wife drag him around by his nuts. And what's up with him running around wearing female clothing all the time being silly? Halloween is one thing, but I see next week, here it is again. I'm starting to think maybe he likes to be in women's clothes...but its kind of creepy in a Norman Bates kind of way.
