Oh Girl, if you woulda got to episode 4, lawd...to see how Beverly treats her daughter, you almost kind of understand why she gravitates towards her husband's family vs. her own. Her mama is crazy as hell, she puts her down, she dismisses her. Who wants to put up with that constant debasement and rejection? It's really messed up.
When I saw episode #2, I was thinking the same thing about Anasa being spoiled and talking too much about her mother being self-centered. But then as you go on, I ended up seeing Beverly in ways I really wish I hadn't:
1. She got irritated because Anasa and the House Manager (Robert?) decided to make a her a birthday cake from scratch: reason? She only wanted everyone to play golf with her and it didn't fit in with her program. They thought they were doing something nice for her to show how much she means to them, and she got pissed.
2. She tells Anasa 48 hours before she's due to leave for Tyra's Next Top Model show, that she negotiated to have her on the show as a judge. Anasa has a trip planned to the in-laws for a family portrait booked 12 months prior with a really expensive artist. First of all, her mom was lying about Anasa being asked to judge judge, she only said that to get her to go. Then when she found out about the portrait, she mocked the in-laws by saying "oh really, is it on canvas or velvet ?" We find out later in the show that the portarit means so much to her and she didn't want to disappoint her mother in law because she in fact, was the only parent to give the kids a wedding gift. It comes out that Beverly avoided talking to her about the wedding, being involved in any planning, and didn't even buy her daughter a wedding present. While anasa is crying exlianing how this has hurt her, Beverly's response is that her gift is "I got you HERE " , as in I gave birth to you and you exist, so that's your damn gift On top of that it is revealed that when Anasa called her mother to share her excitement that she was having a baby, her mother's response was "Why? "
3. Beverly's tone in speaking to people: always out of order: she had the nerve scream at Robert for not getting food on the table fast enough when her mom (also a cold woman) and her psychologist sister arrived for a visit. Mind you, this man was slaving in the kitchen, making them greens and ham hocks an all other kinds of stuff, sweating over the stove to make a nice soul food lunch for them, and when the kids passed through the kitchen to ask him what he was cooking, he simply told them and Beverly accused him of lollygagging and told the man to get the ?/"$"/!!**'' food on the table
I'm telling you, Beverly is mean as hell. That why I compare her old evil ass to Joan Crawford.
So anhoo, what's the cheating show that you watch? Maybe I'll trade in Beverly's show for that one instead

Here's a trip down memory lane. How things used to be on BBWives before Eve & Tami became the queen bees evil mean twins of this season. This gives some good backstory:
Season 2 Finale: The Ev & Tami Brawl over Kenny
Funny how things have changed completely since then.

Girl I'm so glad you gave me the run down on that show because now I know I DEFINITELY will not be watching that hot mess.
The cheating show I'm talking about is "Unfaithful: Stories of Betrayal"...the season just ended when the new season of Sweetie Pie's started but it's a very interesting show. It's about couples who were married but then either one or both stepped outside the marriage and had affairs and they talk about what problems in the marriage led up to the affair and the aftermath of it. In some cases, folks ended up having a child outside the marriage as a result of the affair and it talks about how couples (if they were able to resolve it) were able to get past it, however, a number of them ended in divorce after trying to work it out after the "betrayal"....but those who ended up divorced sort of learned how to be friends and be cordial for the sake of their children.

I have to get caught up on the Beverly Johnson show. All I know about her is that she was the first black supermodel and she used to be engaged to Chris Noth of SATC and Law&Order fame.
I find it strange that his current baby momma/fiance looks like a young Beverly Johnson.

Okay finished watching. A few observations...
1) Is it a newbie requirement to attend SOMEONE'S birthday dinner and in the middle give a damn emotional bullshit speech about how much they care and love the new girls they they are getting to know?
2) Is me or did Tami look straight up busted at Jennifer's birthday dinner? Did she look like that during the whole season? And why were her shoes off when she was taking her cigarette break like she was on the porch in the country waiting for the collard greens to finish cooking in the kitchen?
3) Wowwwww, Evelyn was actually calling Jennifer her best friend back then? That's a ways from how they are now. Damn.
4) So Kenya was actually right when she said Evelyn was "loose"....so why did Evelyn get so damn mad and tried to beat her ass over telling the truth?
5) Wasn't there a spinoff called LA Housewives or something with that crazy Jackie woman who follows her husband around to every single game in the season to make sure she isn't cheating? So how did y'all like that show? Don't they have a new season coming up? I will forever love and miss you...my sweet Prince. | |

1) Reality show Theatrics 101.
2) Tami looked pretty busted the whole season. You should've seen her initial meeting with Ev and Jenn. Ev pretty much tore her down.
3) Jenn and Ev were besties. Stuck up bitches. Royce famously nick named them Mean and Evil.
4) We all roll our eyes at Ev for this. Even Kenya said it herself: "If I said it so what? Can we just move on? Everyone was talking."
5) I saw a few episodes of BBWLA and I did not like it at all! Think of it as the poor man's version of BBW, that is if you don't mind being attacked by Evelyn for *gasp* "judging" others. *eyeroll*

Damnit, your commentary on Tami. And to think, Evelyn used to talk about Tami's fashion sense too
Basketball Wives LA is pretty good. A couple of the women they edited out for being too boring/not glam enough. A lot less physical fighting, but heavy on mind games between the women, and Jackie Christie is totally mental. She's a pathalogical liar to the point of it looking like she needs medication, no joke.
Jackie spent the entire Season 1 running behind every girl's back to tell a half true story about what another cast member said about them, causing non-stop, unspoken beefs between everyone all based on lies. At the end of the season the women all put it togther what she was up to, and they figured she has some weird type of Savior Complex where she likes to purposely create friction, then step in as mother hen to become the wise old sage that everyone loves and can trust. Plus she's bi-polar (it appears). Season 2 should be coming up after BBWives Miami finishes.
The cast is Gloria & Laura Govan (the sisters, G from BBWives Miami & Laura who was rumored to have slept with Shaq, hence the tension Gloria had on the other show always taking up for her sister against the rumors). Malaysia, married, also kind of young and religious. Crazy Jackie who needs meds. Draya, the 25 yr. old video ho/basketball groupie, and Chris Brown's ex who's actually very sweet and pretty harmless. She's the youngest and Jacky took her under her wing, she says to groom her, but she just needed a young dumb puppet as an ally that she thought she could control. Draya wised up by the end, though. Then there's Imani, divorced BB wife.
Here's the last episodes for backstory. The literally voted her ass out of the social circle.
EP.9
Basketball.Wives.LA.S01E0... SockShare
EP. 10 (Hawaii)
Basketball.Wives.La.S01E1... SockShare
EP. 11
basketball.wives.la.s01e1... SockShare
So it will interesting to see how Jackie resurfaces in Season 2 since they voted her ass off Hawaii like Survivor.

Five minutes, count'em, five minutes in and I got a question already.....how in the hell does Caroline's daughter, Lauren, figure that only losing 30-40 pounds will get her to a size 6 or 4? Has she looked in the mirror? To get to a size 6 or 4 she need to at least lose 60 lbs-75lbs...at the very LEAST. [Edited 4/29/12 19:11pm] I will forever love and miss you...my sweet Prince. | |

at Big Ang & the plastic surgery comment. I'm still waiting for the latest ep. of Mob Wives to upload but I can only imagine
Now Drita and the rapping- I know she been doing that at clubs, I can't be mad at her-she cracks me up. She's likes a New York rough girl archtype that's very common where she comes from.
She should prolly put down the mike from what I saw in videos people have of her on youtube, but she can dance a lil bit..better than Renee (who also loves her rap music!)
and I guess the apple doesn't fall far from the tree
I know Karen says that since she got married, Drita walks around looking "mobbed up", but at her "core", I think she's more "street" than tthe other girls. Unlike the other wives who grew up isolated in the lap of luxury from their rich criminal fathers (and from their Italian-American background likely taught as children to stick to their "own" kind and not really associate with black people), Drita is a straight hood girl who grew up poor and in the projects, right alonsgide the Wu-Tang Clan. She wasn't pampered like those other broads her whole life and for me it rings more authentic than the rest of 'em.
BTW, speaking of pampering I saw a video from her talking about how her black girlfriends saved her in the looks department; when she was little her (poor, but well meaning) parents tried to dress her up & sent her to school with a buzzed shaved head, in a blue ruffled dress, red boy's tennis shoes, & big white plastic earrings . She said she had to learn to fight and get a kiddie make-over all in the same day. That's messed up, cause knowing how cruel bad ass kids can be, you know she prolly got a good ass kickin'. Good she found some friends to help her get her looks together. [Edited 4/30/12 1:21am] | |

They're really short chicks though, and short people photograph fat. Caroline is barely 5ft tall (that's like Jada Pinkett height), her daughter looks maybe 5'4". I'mma give her the 40 lbs, because the camera really does add weight. Jessica Simpson (also 5'4") at her fattest before pregnancy really only was a size 6 and you woulda thought she was Chaz Bono's size the way people dogged her. I'm 5'4 and me at a size 6 is scurry . I look like the Goodyear Blimp (and get a double chin) , and even a 20-25lb weight gain or loss makes a humoooon-gous difference in how I look. Lauren looks at about a size 10 at her height, but straight 40lbs will def. take her down to a solid size 4, with the abilility to squeeze into some size 2s (if it's not high end designer brands). She betta get her azz on Atkins, though and put down the white pastas [Edited 4/30/12 1:37am] | |
- E-mail - orgNote - Report post to moderator |
Hmm I hear ya, but I'm going to have to disagree. I'm 5'2" and a size 14 yet Lauren looks way bigger than I do, giving that she's probably a few inches taller than me, I give her between a size 14-16 personally. I know camera does add weight, but not that much. So taking that into account, I'll say she's really a size 12 right now at the least.
For the life of me I don't get folks who have money and yet go to a diet doctor instead of hiring a personal trainer who could not only give her proper fitness training but show her how to eat real food at healthier portions. It's not like she's employed right now either since she "packed up her stuff" at the wherever it was where she was doing makeup because she felt folks looked at her as the "Manzo's daughter" didn't quite get what that was about because she could have turned that starting point into her own, but anywho, my point is, it's not like she has a set daily schedule and could more than likely fit a personal trainer into her schedule...we all know mommy and daddy can foot the bill for it. On the flip side, Caroline could try to prepare some more healthier Italian dishes knowing that her daughter's weight has been an issue for a while. Sometimes when you are trying to lose weight, family, sometimes inadvertedly aren't all that supportive. I know that first hand. Not saying or accusing Caroline of being not caring because she clearly does, I'm just saying sometimes family will support you and say that's good you taking a stand and making changes, but they can also hinder you by bringing temptations into the house. So either Lauren going to have to start cooking her own food or convince her mom to do the cooking for her because that liquid mess that doctor gave her ain't going to last a bit. Like she said, she'll lose, but then once she starts eating regular food, that weight is going to come right back. I didn't even hear the doc give her an exercise routine or nothing. That's how you know the difference between a "diet doctor" and a real "nutritionist". I hope Lauren is able to find a routine and a healthy diet plan that will assist her in her weight loss journey. The bottom line is, its really all about what will work for your body, because what works for one will not necessarily work for the next person.

The rest of RHONJ....
Okay is it me or are they over this cookbook business? Urgh. Let it go already. Yes she made inappropriate comments, yes she gave apologies, but dang are they really going to keep talking about this the whole season? If so, I bow out now.
That whole scene at Jacqueline's house was unsettling. It's like they all came to make sure to give Teresa the side eye whenever she showed up. Then for Teresa to go into that whole spill about how she was sorry if anyone felt offended by what she put in the cookbook and then was like "okay feel better now"...homegirl would had done better not saying anything at all. I was with Joe on this one when he was trying to tell Teresa to just leave it alone already.
Richie makes my skin crawl. He's annoying.
I used to really like Caroline but lately she's become so preachy.
Now as far as Ashley goes, why did they have Albie's dumbass take her to the airport only for him to drop her off at the door? Judging from Jacqueline's comment to him, asking him to "call her once she gets past security" meant that he was supposed to park his car and WALK WITH HER through her baggage check, to security and then to her terminal. Why this lazy ass fool just drop Ashley's dumbass at the door KNOWING how dumb she is, is beyond me. Then he's going to have the nerve to have this dumbfounded look on his face when Chris was like "it was partially your fault". UMM YES because them having you take Ashley to the airport was the whole point in getting her on that plane. Instead Albie's like "well she is 20, how doesn't she know how to get on a plane". Dummy, they know she's 20 but she's a dumb 20, that's why they ASKED YOU, someone they thought had sense enough to put her dumbass on the plane.
So I saw Jacqueline on WWHL, and I'm sorry but I still don't have a clear understanding of why she didn't do the reunion for last season. She said she explained in her long ass blog on the Bravo site, I read it, guess what, still confused.

Basketball Wives:
Royce's daddy is right; she needs to slow her ass down and think about her baby son first and foremost and quit chasing after all these young boys trying to land a husband.
And Lawd, these broads actually are trying to blame Jen as the troublemaker because she's pressing charges against someone assaulting her How stupid are you people? She told you, literally told you fools by written letter that if someone hit her durimng the filming of this show (as you banshees are so easily apt to do) she was dealing with the person not with hands, but with the law. Jeezus. Other than that, it was good to see Eveyln act like a normal person (in her scene with Chad), and can someone please explain why Kenya's make-up look like something from the set of Thriller Oh, and there shouldn't be a snowball's chance in hell that Jennifer would truly consider going on the annual "Girls Trip", that is just a disaster waiting to happen. Shoot, she better concentrate on making her money and going to Tahiti by her damned self .

In the meantime, Star Jones is not feeling the idea being perpetuated on the show that chicks can just run around hauling off and smacking the hell out of each other, and that there are no repercussions for these actions:
Star Jones Declares War on Basketball Wives: Calls Sisters to Stand Up Against the Show
by Staff, YourBlackWorld.net Star Jones has had enough with Basketball Wives and is launching a campaign against it. After seeing recent episodes where women such as Evelyn Lozada have been fighting (with Evelyn climbing across the table to attack a woman), Jones says that it’s time to turn the corner on the destructive nature of the show. Jones has this to say about the matter:
“...And the thought that the woman from #BBW who was smacked doesn’t have the RIGHT to file assault charges is LUDICROUS! You NEVER give up your right not to have your ‘person’ intentionally assaulted unless you are participating in an agreed physical activity,” Star went on to write.
