Lisa did what she always does in situations like this. She inserts herself in the middle to play all sides. They know this. If Brandi has a problem with Lisa then she needs to pull up her big girl bloomers and tell Lisa to her face. Oh, that's right...Brandi probably doesn't own a pair of big girl BLOOMERS!
The same can be said for Kyle. It was so high school of her to give that ring to Brandi to give to Carlton. Then again, it was really childish of Carlton to refuse to sit next to Kyle.
I get that Joyce appears to be a nice lady BUT she tries too hard. I guess her history with pageants has her unable to turn it "off" at times. She tries to play it off, but she always looks like she's trying hard to not look directly at the camera's.
Yolanda's daughter GiGi is lovely. I wish her nothing but the best in NY. But I was annoyed when Yolanda didn't want her to have a SMALL piece of her cake. It reminded me of the comments Yolanda made last season something about her not liking her daughters playing sports because it would turn them gay. Every now and then we get a glimpse to the real Yolanda. Not impressed.
Looking forward to seeing what makes Kim go off on Ken next week. But listening to Lisa cry was hard. Like I said, if Brandi was a true friend to Lisa she would have told her what was bothering her. These chicks are so petty!
I really don't believe that Lisa put the magazines in the suitcase. I just can't see it. Especially after Ken was so supportive of Mauricio. He didn't even give the rumors a second thought.
I was thinking about how 100% behind Mauricio Ken was. I'm sure that's part of the reason Ken is so mad about the whole thing.
I could see Lisa and Brandi having a little gossip session about it and lia even j joking about the tabloids. I don't see it going down like Brandi is saying. Brandi is just looking for people to be on her side against Lisa.
The whole thing with Brandi being mad because of that waitress is silly. I thought Brandi had a sit down with her a few seasons ago and they came to an understanding.
I did think it was annoying that the ladies were telling Ken to stay out of it. When Joyce and Brandi got into an argument, Joyce 's husband was right in the middle. Same thing with Mauricio and Paul going after Brandi when she was fighting with Adrienne.
I kind of thought Lisa was not telling the whole truth about the tabloids. She was kind of cagey and evasive when they were questioning her. She was like, " I don't know when I saw them" "I know I didn't buy them!" "I don't think I saw them, I think I saw them later." It just seems to me if she really didn't do it she would have been more like, " I absolutely did not do that." Who knows, maybe she was just shocked at the accusations.
She was probably just trying to drum up some drama because let's face it, the viewers want to see fighting and controversy. Nobody wants to watch a bunch of ladies eating lunch and chatting about he weather. I think they have learned that if they are too boring they are off the show.
I didn't like them attacking Ken, but he was just defending Lisa. He shouldn't have called Yolanda stupid though.
I am confused on why Kyle brought it up at dinner again. Lisa told her directly no at the beach, but I think Kyle's husband was upset that Kyle believed Lisa and stormed off.
Have we seen Lisa smoking on the show before? I don't know why, but that's what stuck out to me. I quit almost thirty years ago, but once every five years or so will sneak a puff off someone's, and that's what it looked like Lisa was doing. So was she REALLY upset, or just acting?
And Brandi looked a little like the cat who ate the canary at the dinner table with everyone screaming around her....

I don't think Lisa is being honest in her blog. And there is no such thing as a take down of a cast member. That's the cast members own doing.
Here is my thing about last nights episode, Lisa may or may not have influenced Brandi to put those tabloids in the suitcase. the thing is, lets say she did, Brandi could have easily just said no she would not do it and before leaving toss out those tabloids and then the Palm Springs thing would have never happened. Instead it was brought up during the trip. Brandi is in charge of Brandi, she can make her own decisions, she's going to have to own up to her poor behavior. I do think Lisa knew about them, she wasn't supportive at all with Kyle until much later (after the tabloids came out), making a joke about infidelity when the rumor is upsetting doesn't help ease the situation and to make matters worse she did it in front of Portia. She also said something like "Where there is smoke, there is fire", and then also said she couldn't be positive that Mauricio wasn't cheating on Kyle, and tried to argue with Ken about it. Ken was the only person who was adamant that the cheating rumors were false. Kyle was being told two different stories, two people were saying the same thing while Lisa was the only one with a differing story. She didn't know who to believe, and didn't Lisa once say that Brandi was a "truth cannon", that constantly said throughout the 2nd and 3rd season by Lisa and everyone else. But now that it's against Lisa, Brandi is a liar? She brought it up during the dinner because Brandi and Lisa were there together, and what better way to have the two of them together so she can get down to the truth? Neither of them budged, obviously. I find it hypocritical that Ken, who was so against Michael standing up for his wife against the ladies and Mauricio standing up for Paul and Adrienne against Brandi, was involved in the fight. He said himself to the men to stay out of it, but I guess he doesn't have to be held to his own standards. I understand why he stood up for Lisa, but he's a huge hypocrite.
I think this whole season has been an attempt of a take down of Lisa. I still stand by that statement I made earlier watching the season. I still think Lisa actually fainted on DWTS. Also, I thought it was Yolanda not Lisa who made the "where's there is smoke, there is fire?" comment. Speaking of Yolanda did anyone else noticed that she says in her blog that she did not see Lisa attempt to put the tabloids in Brandi's suitcase?

I don't think the truth canon name applies in this situation. That would have been Brandi blurting out to the group in Palm Springs right when it happened. Not months later. I think her story is shady. Either it didn't happen or if it did, it was a joke and she knew it. You could see her building to something over the last few episodes. Truthfully, I think it might have been a producer led set up. As to Ken being a hypocrite, I think this situation was different than the other two you described. Joyce was not being attacked by the entire group. If I recall correctly it was only Brandi and maybe Yolanda. And with Paul and Adrienne it was 2 against 1, Maurucio made it 3 against 1. Everyone was attacking Lisa. I think that's very different. I just think they're all ridiculous. None of those women like Brandi but all of a sudden she is someone they believe?
I think Ken was super offended after being squaley in Mauricio's corner.
Someone had mentioned Lisa trying to talk Ken out of defending Mauricio. I took her to be saying that he (or anyone) can't really know 100%. Not that she was trying to start trouble.
