"As for little Snowball and myhttp://www.bravotv.com/the-real-hou...gs/taylor-armstrong/out-with-a-bang?page=0,1# precious daughter, Kennedy, they are both healthy and happy. Snowball is living with a friend who has a female Maltese as well (Snowball's girlfriend). We have a new Chihuahua in our home named Jax. Kennedy doesn't show any signs of allergies to Jax and she holds her constantly."

She's a piece of work!

Kyle was on Regis and Kelly just now.

Nothing too exciting but she said she's in a good place with her sister now and even Camille too! Thought it was funny when Kelly said that Kyle is most people's favorite 'wife'. I don't think so.

Lisa was on Ellen last week I think. I love her. Ellen gave her a stroller/carriage for her dog. Oh it was so cute. Her husband was in the audience. It was a fun interview.

I do think it's odd that there's this big controversy about something Kyle supposedly said and the ubiquitous Real Housewife cameras weren't *there*?!? Oh, anyone want to bet that this conversation will show up on the 'Lost Tapes' show that is always aired the week after the 2nd Reunion show?

The producers' blog goes into detail on why this footage doesn't exist. Here is the link to that specific entry.

That's kind of what I think. There may be a small grain of truth to her story but I doubt it went down the way she said.

Hm, if we believe that to be true, then it isn't a stretch to believe the Kyle/Camille talk didn't go down as Camille says. (For the record, I think Camille heard something that wasn't intended from Kyle. Things come out of my mouth all the time that sound like something other than what I mean ) We only have Camille's side of the story with the doorman, but whatever the exact words were, how it made her feel is what matters for the story.

Good point, I'll have to keep an open mind in the future.

I actually meant that you have a really open mind about what is going on, so I hope you didn't think I meant otherwise!

What I find interesting in that blog is that the producer said that only 3 people heard it, Camile, Kyle, and Kim and they all heard it differently. So that makes me wonder what really happened if Kim is hearing it differently then Kyle did.

So, it seems to me that the show is in full "Kyle repair mode". Sending her to be on Regis & Kelly, where she's referred to as "everyone's favorite" and "the normal one" Really? I bet the others loved hearing that and like Kyle even more now.

But her appearance this morning makes me think the reunion will be a "poor, misunderstood" Kyle fest

That will be horrible. I hate when they twist peoples personalities like that. Yuck!

ITA. I hope I'm wrong, but I think that's where they are heading. Why Kyle, and just Kyle? (on Regis & Kelly)

Oh no, not at all!! I just meant maybe I'm a little hung up on the fact that I absolutely can't stand Camille that I have a hard time believing anything and everything she says. I need to keep an open mind because sometimes she may actually be sincere.

You are right and it is so frustrating. I wish for once Andy would not have to tie the reunion up into a pretty bow where all is forgiven. I get sucked in with all of these shows.
I will give my home town credit, I don't think ATL is ever a hug/luv fest!

What I find interesting in that blog is that the producer said that only 3 people heard it, Camile, Kyle, and Kim and they all heard it differently. So that makes me wonder what really happened if Kim is hearing it differently then Kyle did.

To quote Dr Phil "there is no reality, only perception". Three people heard the same thing but perceived it very differently based on their own 'issues'. Camille is insecure and comes off that way as she is around people that are only interested in her because who she is married to. Even the production company she was involved with only existed because of Kelsey.

Interesting interview with Camille on one of the entertainment shows where she said she is negotiating the terms of season 2 (if she comes back) to have a more accurate description of her character. She was offended by the editing (putting comments and rolled eyes in different spots than where they were actually said) and would not return if she was perceived as the villain. I am sure there is some truth to that, but her dinner party was an example where she deliberately stirred things up and there is no other way to explain it IMHO.

Can't wait for the reunion shows!!!!

I just read Taylor's blog. So because Kim stood up, that changed the tone of the conversation? She keeps coming up with excuses. At the end she apologized, but it didn't seem like an apology.

The producers of this show definately steer things the way they want them to go. People aren't going to watch if they are all holding hands getting along.

Tonight, we'll see how this ends. Kyle will be seen mostly by the viewers as the villain. They are doing damage control now for the reunion shows. They can't be doing all that bad, since they bought a 3 million dollar house in Belair and sold their old one. I'm sure she'll do another season to keep that extra $$ rolling in.

FYI-I just read that Kelsey Grammar will be on Regis and Kelly this morning! I doubt they will ask any hard hitting questions though, their interviews are usually "fluff."

My opinion on the cast:

Camille- still hate her. Always have...since the beginning. IMO, I think something was going on on her side as well while he was in NYC. I really dont believe anything that comes out of her mouth.

Adreinne- I actually really like her. I think her marriage works because they do bicker at each other. They sound like my parents half the time and my parent shave been married for almost 28 years!. She is definitley my favorite.

Lisa- I still like her also. I do think she needs to boot whats his name out of her house though (she hasnt done that yet...right?)

Kyle- Personally, I still like her. And even if she is not telling the whole truth about her and camille, I believe more of what comes out of her mouth than I ever would about what Camille would say.

Taylor- I dont like her. I think she is trouble. And her marriage is a wreck. But I think that all does go hand in hand to a point

Kim- No real opinion about her. Whether or not she actually does have any issues...maybe. I dont like her, I dont hate her, I'm kind of neutral. I do think she is way too dependent on her kids though. That came through with her COLLEGE daughter going to Texas for the summer. She was way to needy with all of that

Looking forward to the reunion tonight! Who's watching?

I agree with you on everyone!
I can't stand Camille and I am a firm believer in the producers using what you give them. I mean I get it that there is editing, but you have to actually make the eye rolls and sound bites! Plus the way she was all over that 'married' guy friend of hers. Yuck! And he showed up in Vegas??

Kim was like a nobody on this show. Not exactly sure how she was part of the cast. It honestly didn't seem like she had a lot of money, maybe they just wanted the 'sister' relationship to be present? She was loving towards her kids though, if a bit needy with them.

I still like Kyle, I like how she puts her family first (well, not her sister though!). I think that Camille is the crazy one and after the whole dinner party experience, if I was Kyle, I wouldn't have talked to her ever again.

And I like Lisa and Adrienne. Nothing bad to say about either of them.

 

[DisneyScraps]

I haven't liked Camille since I started watching. If I hear her say one more time how busy she is or how tired she is I might puke. However I am disgusted by Kelsey Grammer. He is not a gentleman. I get that being married to Camille would be a job you would need a team of men to do it but there is a right and a wrong way to end a relationship. to do what he did to her while he knew there were camera on her, that seems unnecessary cruel. His girlfriend gets to watch Camille go through all of it. Weird and unsettling.

When I watched the show about the Tony's I saw Camille over and over jab at Kelsey with the "I love you" I thought he as going to be grateful for me etc. She knew how he felt and every in that hotel room knew it but she had to keep pushing the point.

She is going to get a fortune in the divorce but she is going to lose the notoriety and for Camille that seems really important. She isn't going to be the wife of a famous person any more.

I like Lisa, she seems to be grounded.

Kyle is great she doesn't take any crap from anyone and I like that.

Kim is crazy, needy, whiny! All that stuff about she bought the house that Kyle lives in, she paid for her first car etc. That was not Kyle's fault, it was the Mom.

Adrienne I think she is awesome. The bickering with her husband is funny but I felt a true affection there.

Tyler, oh that woman. She won't leave her marriage. No way is she going back to the real world where she can't have a 60.000 birthday party. Her husband treats her like a thing and she is going to take it.

Lisa

Kim wasn't a nobody. She was the most popular child actress of the 70's and up through mid/late 80's. The show and the producers used her for that purpose alone, only what they got was a woman who has already been used and abused by the Hollywood machine enough in her life and she wasn't going to deal with it now. She wants to be normal and doesn't want to deal with the fake, plastic bs of the rest of those woman who use their money(or rather for Taylor & Kyle, their husband's money) to make people miserable.

I liked Kim, I liked the fact that she wanted a normal life, she lived somewhat simply. She never brought up money ever on the show, she didn't go out shopping for 2,000 dollar necklaces for her kids. She just wanted her kids with her. And guess what? Her ex's family is not exactly the kindest, so so what if she wants to hold on to her daughter a bit more. I might be the same way if it were my kid. Just because she's college age doesn't mean she can't want her kid not to leave.

Kyle was great the first few episodes but soon you see her little looks and side remarks about everything. Plus you can tell this is HER show, the show is supposed to revolve around her and if it doesn't she will take you down. She came off to me the last several episodes like that HS mean girl who didn't like you because you were wearing the wrong shoes. The constant throwing around the words" you didn't have my back" to Kim? How the hell old is she? 16? Because grown women don't constantly have to feed that kind of drama. She's the one who never let anything drop. Camille may be narcissistic but I don't think she's a crazy, angry person like Kyle is.

Kyle may be there for her kids, but that doesn't mean she's always a good person. And the only reason she talked to Camille again is because she didn't want her husband to lose their business.

I think this is so strange she bought a chihuahua bc chihuahuas are not hypoallergenic but maltese are. I know this bc I am allergic to dogs, get asthma from them as well as sneezing, itching, rashes, and cannot have a chihuaha but have no problems at all with maltese, yorkies, bichons, etc. Same with my husband. So strange she bought her daughter a chihuaha.

I agree with you, Kim was not a nobody, she was the one that was a child star, not Kyle as much and supported her family. I really like Kim and I think how they treated her, ganging up on her with her sister there was disgusting. She obviously is a little fragile and I know her fiancee was murdered or something in the past. Adrienne did help her which was nice and I like her, she is someone who says it like it is and says it to your face but is not real meanspirited like the others can be. Lisa also institigates, she told Taylor to go over and talk to Kim, then sits back and watches it unfold. Taylor should have let it go, gosh enough already, it's ridiculous. I think Kim should maybe have backed Kyle over the Camille thing but Kim gets nervous and doesn't like confrontation but u don't act so hateful or do what Kyle did, that was really bad. I would love to get more info about Kim's house being taken away by Kyle or her husband? Maybe they did take advantage of her, she seems very vulnerable and weaker, but Kim supported Kyle as a kid so Kyle needs to stop, even if she didn't she should help her sister. Camille is the worst, no wonder her husband leaves her. I honest to gosh cannot believe the nasty stuff tho that comes out of these women at times who have so much. These women need to lighten up and forgive.
