Prison Wives Club, Episode 4

Prison Wives Club, “Friendly Fire” – 11/18/14

 

Kate

I still like Kate the most. But I can see her friendship with Rome is going to get her in trouble with her husband. Idk how much trouble one can get into with their significant other and he is locked up behind bars. I mean if anything, she’s saving money (Skypes on jpay.com, gas for visits, etc.)

 

Kate has been trying to take over the Prison Wives Club. She’s calling meetings and whatnot, without the ringleader (LaQuisha) being present. Where I can see this coming from a good place and I’m sure this support group is needed because there are a lot of “ride or die” women out there supporting their men behind bars (I am not one of them). But it didn’t bode over well with LaQuisha. At the meeting, Kate was going over ideas and her BFF Jhemini shot down each one. Why did you drive an hour and a half and waste your gas and time to not even be supportive? Just don’t come if you don’t want to help or if your help is half-assed..

 

LaQuisha

LaQuisha and Kate took Drea (whose brother is in prison, for the same crime at Jhemini’s husband…). And it was really sweet because Drea had not been to see her brother in prison for 3 years since his sentencing. They drove her up there and waited. I guess, this is what the show is all about. Supporting prison wives/family members.

 

Ana

So Ana went to visit her husband and he “forgot” his ID, so they couldn’t go into the public visitation area. This meant they had to go into a room where there’s a glass wall. I’m assuming this is where they have the phones and they can touch the wall and pretend to match handprints. You like they do in hood movies? I think Yvette had a dream doing this with Jody in Baby Boy.

 

But instead, they decided to show each other their “private parts.” He measured his penis with a piece of paper so she could tell how long it was. I mean come on! I can’t make this up. That is sooooo juvenile. I haven’t gotten a d*ck picture next to a ruler like that since I was 15 and still using AIM. Like imagine if a guard came in. I’m sure there are cameras. I bet the COs were having a field day laughing that this prison porn.

 

Jhemini

This woman is soooooo concerned with her family not knowing about her decisions to marry a man in prison but she’s on a reality TV show. So no one in her family watches the Lifetime channel? I’m sure someone will find out. She’s so concerned with her privacy and giving out her address when camera crews are following her, her car, showing her apartment, etc. I mean why even join the show? Oh that’s right – she’s trying to boost her “modeling career.”

 

She invited Ana and Quisha out to dinner to get to know her. I guess they thought it was more of “let’s all share about our lives” type of deal. But no, she rambled on and on about herself, her modeling career and her husband who’s in prison for assault. By the way, if you’re counting – this is the 4^thepisode and the 4^th time he walked off a Jpay visit that she’s paying for. Her husband called her out on being ashamed of her marriage to a man in prison. He’s right. She’s ashamed, but then she’s on a show chronicling her life about it….

 

The ladies were trying to start a Facebook page about their stories and whatnot. And put their contact information on there so women could reach out to them. This dummy said she would call them from a blocked number and tell them what to bring for their EVFs (conjugal visits). I mean how supportive is that? I just can’t with this woman. She keeps bringing up that people are in prison for murder. Umm.. newsflash lady – the only difference is that the man your husband shot, didn’t die. That’s it!!! I wish she get a grip and realize that she is just like every one of the other wives on this show. You’re husband still wears an orange jumpsuit and is assigned a 6 or 8 digit number. Don’t get it twisted. 

Check back next week for recaps! RHOA will be posted on Tuesdays and PWC will be posted on Thursdays.

Prison Wives Club, Episode 3

Prison Wives Club, Episode 3 - "No babies behind bars" 

Kate 

She is my favorite!!! I love how rational and logical she is. She and her husband are discussing the topic of having children. She's 25, which is the prime age to have children - especially if you are married and stable. However, Kate's husband is in prison, which is not the ideal situation. And I am so glad Kate realizes that. It's pretty selfish of you to have a baby just because you want one. Your child won't have their father in their life, just because you want to post selfies with your growing belly with the caption of "the reason I breathe" or "my world" - that's not okay. 

LaQuisha 

Nothing really interesting happened with Quisha this episode. Besides her husband asking her how much money she spent at the strip club. Like sir, you have no income. Why are you worried about how much she spends. Ohhh that's right - any extra money she spends in the strip club is less money to put on your books for honey buns. How could I forget??? 

Ana 

Can Dr. Phil or Oprah or Iyanla come and help this woman. I mean she is just sooooooo desperate to be loved. She is so in love with her murderer of a husband. She was scrap booking emails they sent to each other. One said, "Love is a drug and I'm addicted to you." Do they have tumblr in prison? I mean seriously where did he find that?! 

Then the woman he works two minimum wage jobs goes to a boutique to find a wedding dress. The sales associate got the total down to just under $1000 - which is still a lot when you have to pay $6 to send an email and put money on your husbands books for cigarettes and honey buns. She needs to take her azz down to the $99 sale at David's Bridal and keep it moving. I mean be realistic. Your two minimum wage jobs are going to have to support you and your husband until he finds a job. Who is going to hire a man who has been in jail for 27 years? 

Jhemini 

This heffa... She is such a judgmental hypocrite. She is convinced her husband is in prison for feeding the homeless. I mean like can someone shake her to make her realize that he's in prison for assault?! She made a comment about Kate offering a ride to another PWC member to jail to visit her twin brother. "Why is she offering her a ride? She doesn't know her. I wouldn't let someone in my car who knows someone who's incarcerated." Umm... Lady what planet are you on?! Your husband is in prison. Then she made a comment about Kate kissing one of the female strippers. If her husband is okay with it, then that should be none of your concern. That's the problem with folks these days; always worrying about what goes on in other people's relationships. Worry about how your husband has walked off two J-pay visits that you paid for. I just can't with this woman. She says Kate is cheating on her husband when she went to lunch with her photographer so he could show her the head shots for her modeling career. He doesn't have an office? Like yall had to have lunch? To me, that's cheating because I'm sure you didn't pay for your food. Why is she so obsessed with hating Kate??? Calm down boo...

All of this is too much to worry about. I'm not about to let a man control me who is told when he can go outside to wait in line to bench press a bar. Like I can't live like that. 

Tune in for next week's post!

Bye Bye & Bon Voyage

Bye Bye & Bon Voyage, RHOA Episode 1

So I've finally been able to digest Sunday's episode. There was sooooo much drama and judging by the preview of the season, even more to come! 

Nene - 

yesssss!!!! I have always loved Nene! Even the season when she was the villain and was always in a funky mood because of her marital problems. But you cannot lie. Nene is doing the damn thing! She is everywhere. Prime time TV, Las Vegas Zumanity, reality TV, clothing lines. She really is a "mogul." 

Kenya 

She's just sooooo dramatic. She's like the women who think they can hit on a man then expect him NOT to retaliate. If you come up on me, then be prepared for an repercussions. Now, I will say this. Porsha should have let Kenya hit her first then best her ass. 

It's really sad that her only friend is Cynthia. And the only thing they have in common is talking about Nene and Porsha. That shouldn't be the base of your friendship with someone. 

Cynthia - 

Why does she even have a peach? We are sick of hearing about her financial problems and Bar One and Peter asking her for money. It's been 3 years. Is there nothing else going on? 

Why did Cynthia get her face tightened? She can barely fix her mouth to say that Nene was causing problems in her marriage. 

Phaedra 

What can I say? The true Southern Belle. She has handled this entire situation with as most dignity and class that you can exude during a tough time like this. I agree 100% with Phaedra. If this was my husband's second time committing mail, wire and bank fraud - then I would be no where near the courthouse. Apollo is all concerned about loving on his wife and playing with his children NOW. Where were these thoughts when you were scheming and cheating the federal government? Why do people think they can lie and cheat and get over on the federal government? He keeps on mentioning that she needed to stand by her.. The same woman he treated like a dog numerous times on the show during the last 4 years? Enough is enough. If I was Phaedra, divorce papers would have been served to him as soon as the sentencing was over. One of my FB friends said she would have changed the locks!!! Then he was flabbergasted when he said he wanted a divorce and she said, "Well, bye-bye." Sir, clearly you have put your own selfish needs before your family. Now she needs to do what she sees fit. And yes,  I'm pretty sure they only got married because she was pregnant and I'm sure she thought he would change after they were married and the kids came. She's so different than lots of our friends and associates, but her situation is brocades fed for all to see. 

Kandi 

I have to say, I agree 100% with Todd. My parents afforded me with plenty opportunities but also kept me grounded. My first car was 1994 Honda (I can't remember if it was a Civic or an Accord). But the air barely worked, I had no radio and the windows were manual. I even had to lock my door from the passenger side. But I had a car!!! None of my friends did. Just because your parent makes millions, doesn't mean your first car should be a Range Rover. That builds up entitlement and affluenza. If your first car is a Range Rover, where do you go from? Eventually you WILL have to come up from under your parents money. 

Kandi and Todd are putt between a rock and a hard place. Apollo and Phaedra were both in their wedding. So I can kind of see Todd's stance and I agree with Kandi for being loyal to her friend. I do not agree with Kandi stating that the courts are harsh with sentencing black men. While this may be true in some cities, if you know the courts are harsh. WHY COMMIT THE CRIMES? Then, this is Apollo's second time getting caught. You'd think he would have learned the first time. 

Well, I hope you guys enjoyed this week's episode recap. I hope you all will check back for next week's post!

Prison Wives Club, Episode 2

Episode 2: Aren't you scared? 

How did you all like last week's episode? From my last post, a few people have told me that they started watching the show because of my post! That made me smile. 

On this episode, we learn more about the four ladies and how they deal with living and coping while having a husband in prison. 

Jhemini - this woman is nuts. She's convinced her husband is in federal prison for a white collar crime like insider trading and bank fraud. Instead, her husband is in jail for AGGRAVATED ASSAULT. She's always like, "My husband is in jail for assault. How can these women me married to men who committed murder?" 

On last week's episode, she lost her wedding ring while she was hiding it from her family (doesn't that always seem to happen LOL?). She's always mentioning how she has prestigious family members. Are you ashamed that your husband committed aggravated assault? 

While she's Skyping him on www.jpay.com, he mentions "We gonna have to get you a new ring." Umm... With what money? The money she puts on your books? So she's buying her own ring? That's like when you were little and your mama gave your money to buy her a Mother's Day gift from you. Do they even sell diamond wedding rings at the commissary? How many stamps is that equivalent to? I mean I just want to know... 

Kate - she's kind of my favorite right now. She's down to earth and pretty cool. The most rational on out of the bunch. I guess as rational as you can be married to a man who's in prison. She puts Jhemini in her place and I like that. I don't even think I could be friends with Jhemini. Her voice is annoying. But Kate really loves her husband. And Carlo seems to have his head on his shoulders. Just kind of the wrong place/wrong time type deal. 

LaQuisha - she's having child support issues with her ex-husband. So of course, she tells her husband in prison - who has no job, who can do nothing to fix the situation and riles him up. But I can see where her husband is coming from. 

I mean how do you quit your job to finish your Associates? Not your PhD, MD, JD or even Masters... It's 2014, people work and go to school all the time. Then her husband said, "We not using the money (child support) to go to Red Lobster." I'll leave that right there. 

Her husband wants to have a threesome. I mean I guess sex is all the guys in prison have to talk about. But where are his priorities? You haven't had sex with him as your husband yet and he wants to bring another woman in the bedroom. Umm.. 

Ana - where is Iyanla? Poor thing. She has serious self esteem issues. It's so obvious. I hope the producers are paying for her to see somebody. Anybody in their right mind who is 29 years old and marries her prison pen pal who has been in jail for 27 years has some serious mental, abandonment issues. Then she had the nerve to get mad at someone was asking probing questions about her situation. "I mean I guess my situation is interesting to some people." Uh yeah it is. You are on a reality show which is about your life as a prison wife. She also commented "I love my man's control and what he has to offer." He probably doesn't even make $1 per hour and you pay to email and Skype him, gas and time to travel to see him. What can he offer you? Of course he can offer you stability - he's been sentenced to life in prison. He ain't going nowhere anytime soon. I just couldn't let a man who's in prison control anything about me. I don't let any man who's free control me. 

I just couldn't be a "Prison Wife" - yeah I could handle it if my man was in the Army serving our country. But in the penitentiary serving time, no that's not for me. Spending my time and money skyping on www.jpay.com with a grainy screen and delayed sounds. Especially if you knew your husband was going to be in jail. If yall meet, get married and he goes to jail - then I could kind of see standing by him (For better or worst, right?) but if you met him on www.writeaprisoner.com and then marry him - then you are a dumb ass fool. Tune in for next weeks episode on Lifetime at 9pm on Tuesday!

Hollywood Divas, 10/29/14

I asked my Facebook friends which reality shows they wanted me to blog about and few of them requested Hollywood Divas. I've seen a lot of promo about this show. It's produced by Kandi Burruss' husband, Todd Tucker and I follow them both on Instagram - so I was seeing them post about it and even more so when it premiered and the Countess Vaughn memes starting appearing. 

I've always wanted to watch it but on Wednesdays, I watch ABC (The Middle, The Goldbergs, Black-ish, Modern Family) - so naturally I set my DVR to watch Hollywood Divas at a later day but never did. So when everyone requested me to blog on this show, I decided to clear our my DVR and watch the shows. 

All of these women, I've watched at some point in my life. Golden, I watched on Girlfriends; Paula Jai Parker, I remember her voice on The Proud Family and the infamous line on Friday, "You ain't got to lie Craig!" Countess, omgggg I loved her on The Parkers; Elise on the The Hughleys and Lisa Wu who got fired from RHOA. 

Maybe I should have started from the first episode but I started from the most recent, which was a horrible mistake. 

The main focus on this episode was Paula and her bright idea of having each girl on show play "a witch" - TF?! The man she went to pitch the idea to was right. Black people don't want to see that mess. You always see black kids throwing tantrums when they have their birthday parties at Chucky Cheese. They grow into adults who are afraid of the Chucky doll and clowns. I'm not afraid of either but I don't want to see that. I'm glad he told her it was a horrible idea. The ladies were all upset with the roles Paula gave them. I mean I would be too. Everyone else is chopped liver while she got a scholarship to Yale. And I f this is all about black female empowerment, why not get a scholarship to an elite HBCU? Southern University, Spelman, Howard? 

I really didn't understand the whole Elise/Golden dance show thing? Like what's the point? Like is it a charity event? Just for fun? This probably was featured on the first episode. Then I was confused as to why Elise would pick Golden uncoordinated ass to dance. I mean are yall really BFF? If my friend wanted to be on my dance show and she couldn't, trust and believe she would not be on my show.

My favorite on the show is Countess. I loved her on The Parkers.  And I guess I identify with her more because she is considered "plus sized." I felt some type of way when Elise took a Golden shopping so she could wear something to the dance show. Like that's Slap In The Face #1, that's rude. Countess is a grown ass woman. She can dress herself. Slap In The Face #2, the boutique had mawmaw clothes. I wear size 20-22 and I would not wear anything out of that boutique. Everything was flowy, had a wraparound belt and/or had too many patterns. Slap In The Face #3, EVERYTHING that Countess tried on, Elise LOVED. And then she wanted to accessorize with gold and a belt. I would feel some type of way if any of my friends took me shopping to a place like that. Now if you took me to a Roberto Cavalli or Oscar de la Renta boutique, I would have no problems. 

And.. Just like on RHOA, Lisa had no storyline. I don't even think she had a segment dedicated to just her. I liked Lisa on RHOA, but she was boring. She didn't deserve a peach. She would be a good extra friend, like Marlo or somebody. 

I said this blog would be short because I couldn't get into it. But after typing all of this, I guess I will be tuning in on Wednesday.

Prison Wives Club, Episode 1

Episode 1: Some Raggedy Prison Wife

So last night, Lifetime aired a new series - Prison Wives Club. I guess I've been spoiled by watching the "Real Housewives" franchise on Bravo because I was shocked to hear there was such a show. I mean really? Prison Wives Club? I'm not one to put myself on a pedestal but I'm sorry if my husband goes to jail... I'm pulling a "Phaedra" and will be divorcing his ass. He obviously didn't think about his family before he committed whatever heinous act, so why should I put my life on hold and wait for you? 

So there are four women who were introduced on last nights episode: Jhemini, Kate, Ana and LaQuisha. Their husbands are in prison with sentences ranging from 10 years to 60 years. 

Jhemini - this woman is under the impression that because her husband is in prison for aggravated assault that she's better than the women whose husbands are in prison for murder. Lady, just because he didn't kill the man doesn't make it better. Even at the Prison Support group meeting, she walked out because she has this sense of arrogance about her. However, she married her  husband knowing he had a 10 year prison sentence to complete. That's just dumb. Now she spends one weekend a month driving to the prison for one night with her husband. Her family doesn't know she's married let alone to a man who is in prison. So she didn't wear her ring when she visited them and of course she lost it. And of course she had to tell her husband. Well he got mad when she told him and hung up the phone. WTF?!?! I'm paying for this call and you hang up on me but will be calling back soon to put money on your books.  I just can't live like that. 

Kate - she's pretty down to earth. Her husband is in jail for assault as well. She got a tattoo coverup during her opening scene to remove the name of the Car Club she and her husband were apart of. Let me just say that was the shittiest coverup I have seen ever in my life. I have 8 tattoos and I follow a few famous tattoo artists on Instagram. The artist didn't even blend it. Just kind of drew over it. It looks like a big ass blob when it should be a dream catcher. You could still read the words, "Family Ties." I really didn't pay that much attention to her after that. I was just mad at her and her tattoo artist. 

Ana - this dummy. It's obvious this girl has self esteem issues. Anytime you let a man who you meet on www.writeaprisoner.com was convicted of a life sentence at 15 years old, been in prison almost as long as you have been alive control what pants you choose to wear, you have some issues. She's 29 years old and her husband has been in prison for 27 years. She's also lying to her parents telling them that her husband is a prison guard. So now she's living with her two gay BFFs to save money because a new law passed that anyone convicted of a harsh sentence under age 18 and served 25 years can be released. That is just dumb. See, I know there will be problems in marriage. But you don't need to go into the marriage creating problems.. Like dating a killer.

LaQuisha - she seems like she has sense. She was married before to what seems like a "good man," has child, has a friend that thinks she's wasting her life being married to a man who was originally sentenced to 75 years (his sentence was reduced to 60 years and he will be released in 2060 - I will be 70 years old, God's will). They've been married about 14 months and he's been "down" for 13 years. He sent her a Facebook message and now they are married. Now she spends 30 minutes twice a week paying God knows how much to talk to her husband on www.jpay.com and her weekends bringing her daughter to see her husband in jail. So of course y'all know I had to research this J-pay. I looked up Dixon Correctional Institute in Jackson, LA. The price varies per state, prison, etc. However, for this prison - it costs about $6 to send a one page email. AN EMAIL!!!!!!!!!!! Google and Yahoo email accounts are free. I'm not paying to talk or email ANYBODY. This is 2014. Long distance calls are no more. You shouldn't have to pay to talk to people. That's just dumb to me. 

So all in all, this seems like it will be filled with mess, drama and messy woman - which is perfect for a reality show. Check back for next week's recap.

I'm baaaaaaackkkkkk!!!!!

I can't believe it's been almost 3 years since I last blogged. That was WAYYY too long. I promise to never go that long again. Plus, I am pretty sure that my Facebook friends were tired of my multiple status updates during the shows I watch. Be on the lookout for blogs from different reality shows. I'm excited to finally start this up again. So with that being said, I'm back!

RHOA - Law by Sheree

Sheree

First off, why is Bob reducing his child support on something that he's NEVER paid. But, that's what you get when you marry for money and not love.

Phaedra hit Sheree's situation ON THE HEAD WITH A NAIL!!! Why would you buy a Porsche when you're complaining about back child support? Who wears Chanel, Dolce & Gabbana to court to complain about $3,000 worth of child support? What judge is going to take you seriously when you are begging for money but wearing Louboutins, Chanel, etc.? I mean how do you not grasp that concept? Whatever happend to a nice skirt or pant suit? Then she has THE NERVE to say how the Atlanta Court System is rigged to be against women! That MAY be true, but don't feed into the stereotype by wearing all these designer clothes and begging for money.

Why Sheree don't wanna take her ex to court? Make your paper boo boo! Sheree feels as if Bob is taking "advantage" of her. Well......what was she doing when she was marrying him for money? Because he sure ain't no looker. I'm sorry, call me superficial or whatever but if you have lazy eye, I don't know how long our relationship could work out. I'd be too busy figuring out which eye to look at instead of getting to know who you really are.

So, Bob is representing himself? Hmmm....He must can't afford a stylist or a suit either with this wrinkled ass shirt he has on, with NO undershirt on. Oooh CONTEMPT, I did my research paper on that. Now don't ask me anything on it (don't worry, I got a B). Wait, so Bob wants furniture. I guess since he's only making $3,000 a month, he needs furniture for himself? No..

Did Bob just poke his tongue out as if he were saying "nanny nanny boo boo" and run off like a little child? I hope the judge sees this and raises his child support. That was TOTALLY uncalled for.


Kandi

Uh oh! Look at Kandi upgrading her bidness!

Charles Grant is keeping it real. "I don't believe in having Louboutin's and Gucci but riding around in a Honda Civic." That doesn't make sense to me either. Priorities people!!! At one point, didn't he play for the Saints? I think I remember his name..

But Charles said, "mens" - is that a word? I mean I know you say "Men's Restroom" but you don't say, "You can't judge us mens" - like that doesn't make sense. I'm really big on grammar, like if you have horrible grammar 1) expect to be corrected or 2) just don't talk around me.

Kandi needs to take her daughter, Riley running or bike riding or to a dance aerobics class or something because Riley is chubby. I know I'm not the skinniest person, but in my defense - I didn't "blow up" until I was about 11 or 12. Riley is 9 and her mom is rich. My parents were not. She can afford to get her a trainer or something. Well, we did do this Pennington Weight Loss study and I gained weight, so that was a #FAIL. But this isn't about me, Riley needs more than a hula hoop. And while you're at it Kandi, make Kim's daughter come too!




Kim

Kim never uses the proper terms for private parts. When I was a child, my mother scolded my brother and I for saying "wee wee" and "cat" and "pee pee" and "poo poo" - we had to say "penis, vagina, urinate and defecate." So yes, people made fun of us for being 5 years old saying, "Mommy, I have to defecate." But we know the proper terms for words. I'm pretty sure Brielle, Ariana and now Baby KJ don't know the proper terms because their mother spoke "baby" to them.

Every time I look at Kim's father, I think about how he pratically BEGGED Phaedra for a job! LMBO!!! Kim doesn't seem suitable to be a parent. She doesn't change his diapers. She's afraid of his "wee wee." She doesn't clean up after her dog. All she does is breastfeed. I mean I know childbirth is a process and you need to heal, but GOT DAMN - what else do you have to do all day. You have no job. Kroy is in NFL and even though they were in the Lockout - he still had to train to get right for when the season started. Smh!!!



Cynthia

Ohhhh Cynthia and NeNe are "thrifting." I want to go SO BADLY! And NeNe is so saditty, "Miss I Don't Wear Clothes Other People Wear" - okay, so how do you know clothes that you've tried on other people haven't worn? I digress.


Phaedra

Phaedra needs to keep doing her job and Sheree needs to keep her day job (which is nothing). She went to school for this, you just watching Law & Order and trying to be Gloria Allred. It ain't gone work boo boo.


Sidebar - Bravo needs to do a better job of these add-in voices because I watch enough reality TV to know when something was added in for more dramatic/comedic effect. Just saying...

RHOA: Three Wigs And a Baby

Sooooo....why does Kim need all that to go have a baby? A wig, a blowdryer, etc. What happened to a baby bag and a gown? Oh look, there goes Kim's flunky, I mean Sweetie. I wonder what Kim looks like without her wig - I bet she has hair, but just doesn't know what to do with it...

Oooh, I didn't know that Kim had pre-ecclampsia. That's serious. The Duggar lady had the same thing and her baby almost died. This is serious.

Let me just say this, Cynthia is a high-fashion model. Why does she ALWAYS seem to have a hair crisis? Like this ponytail attached to her head, doesn't even LOOK real.

I'm confused. Sheree keeps bitching about child support not being paid but yet she's building Chateau Sheree. That doesn't make any sense. PRIORITIES PLEASE!!! I understand that she may have money for herself, but she's acting like she has NO MONEY and can't support her kids without his child support. FYI - child support DOES NOT EQUAL quality time with your children.

I'll just say this, if my ex hasn't paid child support but is able and can afford it - he won't be seeing his child(ren). Does this make me a bitter black woman?

I never knew Russell Simmons and Cynthia Bailey dated. Hmm...NeNe is right. He does like them young because Kimora was young and so is his current girlfriend. NeNe may be interested in John as well since she had to go change clothes...smh! 

Phaedra's hair in this confessional when she's in this blue outfit is ON POINT! Damn...Judge gave him a fine of $1,068 and 6 months probation for ONE ounce of weed?! That's A LOT!!! I'm getting my windows tinted for Christmas (well it's on my list) I hope the people don't tint mine that dark. I can't afford all them fines!

Russell is using this as an oppourtunity because no one knows about this damn book. Who sits in an office with 1908 books on his desk when cameras mysteriously walk into your office? But he's on TV and I'm not - I'm trying to get where he is so I digress...

If it was 20 years ago, 20 minutes ago - YOU STILL CHEATED!!! Smh! Niggas will never understand this.

Cynthia just had to say "Don't be disrespectful" because she know Peter is from the islands and is crazy and will whip somebody ass...just think about if the Peter/Apollo situation had escalated.

Y'all every noticed how Kim never says Kroy's name. It's either "babe" or "love" - I hope I don't become that person...well when I get a man LMBO!

Why did Kim lie to the nurse when she asked if she was a cigarette smoker? Well I mean, not now, but she has chain smoked. Lying through her damn teeth, she could have at least mentioned that, but it's not my baby.

I love Mama Joyce! "Well I put it on at home and complimented myself" - too funny! Ah Ah! For Mama Joyce to be posing on top of that car like that! LMBO! Omg I CAN NOT DEAL!

See this is what I don't like. Why Sheree can't go in another and talk to her mama on speakerphone about this child support mess? No, she has to speak on the phone with her son in the room. I know from experience that that boy heard EVERY WORD that his mama said. Parents don't know when to separate themselves.

But about Sheree wanting Bob to pay her utilities...is he paying SPOUSAL support? Or CHILD support? Because there IS a difference. Pay your own damn bills Sheree and let him supplement what you do, you shouldn't depend on it. He hasn't paid in 4 years, what make you think he gonna just up and pay now? Live within your means and you won't be having to have these conversations.

But I'm PRETTY sure Bob is making more than $3,000 a month. That's $36,000 a year. He made MILLIONS in the NFL and now he just making $36K? I find that hard to believe. *puts finger on chin and hmmmmms*

Wait, this is the John that NeNe is talking about. o_O - OHHH...OKAY! Smh! He doesn't look that good with money. This dinner is making me awkward, so I can only imagine how NeNe feels. One question, how you have someone serenaded in a different language, well other than French or Spanish? That doesn't make sense...

Aw man, I was expecting some jewelry when I saw that blue box...not a pen. I'm disappointed. Moving on...

Cynthia's friend, Kithe looks amazing! Weight loss is a beautiful thing. I want a gay friend, oh wait - I may have one...

Cynthia needs to stop letting people know that she's not happy in her marriage. This is not the first time this season that she's let on that she's not happy with Peter and being married to him. At least, she didn't pull a Kim K and divorce him after 72 days.

Cynthia is going to end up resenting Peter because she left New York FOR Peter. That's not good...

Kim's children are annoying me. LMBO! I bet she's like "Y'all need to leave because y'all pissing me off" - too much! Look she just did, "Why don't y'all go get something to eat?" and her poor daughter couldn't take the hint, "But I'm not hungry..."

I've never had a child so I can't say how the pain should feel but I don't think that all that cussing was necessary. Bite a pillow and keep it moving, but like I said - I've never had a child so I don't know how it feels.

AWWWW the baby!!! I'm happy she didn't say "EWW..." like Phaedra did when she first saw her son. Kim said her son breastfeeds, he's only an hour old. My friend lied to me. She told me that milk ducts don't open until a few days after the baby is born. I knew that was a lie, because my cousin had her baby in the backseat of her car and was breastfeeding when the EMS came.

Can't wait for next episode on Tuesday: lots of laughs and cries!

Sorry it's been a while...

Hey guys! Sorry it's been a while. I've been REALLY busy since my last blog. Hard classes, becoming a woman of Alpha Kappa Alpha, bonding with my line sisters & prophytes, baby-sitting, work, baking, you name it! But now that Fall 2011 is over, I will be blogging A LOT more! And next semester, I promise to blog throughout the semester.


Stay tuned for my blog on RHOA tonight. Can't wait to see what drama happens tonight!

Big Brother 14 - 7/28 Eviction

What's with everyone throwing POV competitions this season? Keith threw it and went home. Dominic threw and is going home. FYI - when you are on BB, you should NEVERRRRRRR throw a POV competition, especially if you're nominated. Who does that?? 

Shelly and Jordan are some tattle-tails! I'm going to give them some tails like I make the kids I baby-sit wear if I tattle. They can't hold water for nothing!!! Seriously? 

Brendon is so annoying. He talks to Rachel any kind of way and thinks he's the ruler of the world because Rachel pumps his ego up. Daniele hasn't talked to her father in 3 years...what makes you think she will take any crap from you? You don't matter! *in my Evelyn Lozada voice* "You are a non-motherfucking factor boo boo" 

I love Jeff and Jordan but I don't know.....something seems odd about them. Jeff seems like Jordan's bigger brother or father and not her boyfriend and lover. Jeff confronts Dominic about the backdooring plan. Dominic says he doesn't know where it came from. Dominic also says that it's Daniele's fault. NOPE!!! It's your fault because you started running your mouth to everyone. Your fault, no one elses!

I love Dom, but he doesn't know what to do! He keeps trying to fix the situation but he keeps on digging a bigger hole for himself.  Meanwhile Jeff and Brendon think they are rulers of the world in this BB house because they are the Vets. The Vets think they run the entire house. Someone needs to set them straight...maybe Daniele will since the couples twist is up and everyone can compete in competitions. 

Brendon is a sexist and macho-man. He talks to women in such a condescending way. Cassi, Kalia. Best believe, his dumb ass who studied "rocket science" wouldn't talk to me that way. 

Jordan is just as messy as they come. No one takes her seriously though because of her accent. "Let's get everyone and sit it down and talk about it." Jeff mentions that when Kalia wanted to backdoor Jeff/Jordan that they were friends. Why is everyone worried about being friends? This is a game! Daniele is the ONLY one who is playing the game and not worried about making friends. Dani has the BEST social and physical game and she can't even play. I'm ready for her to start playing!

The live show!!!!

Seems like Adam's "Vote for Me" speech is like heyyyy Dom is going home; I'm just saying this just because Julie asked me to. Dom's speech kind of reminds me of Chima's speech; except Dom knew he was going home. He basically said, "EFF YOU!" to everyone without cursing! 

Here's how the votes went:

Jeff: Dominic

Jordan: Dominic

Kalia: Dominic

Daniele: Adam 

Brendon: Dominic

Shelly: Dominic

Lawon: Dominic 

Porsche: Dominic 

I do not like this crowd that Big Brother has outside the house for the eviction episodes. I liked when it was really a walk of shame (in past seasons). And why are these people cheering? What's there to be happy about? He just lost his chance at $500,000 or $50,000. That's not laughing matter. 

Lawon's goodbye speech was hilarious! I think they chose him just because he's CRAY CRAY!!! Jordan's imitation of Rachel's infamous quote, "No one comes between me and my man," was just as funny! Big Brother did cast some characters this season. I wonder what the house would be like if Evel Dick was still there? 

It's an endurance HOH competition. I'm pretty sure it'll come down to Rachel, Brendon, Jeff and Daniele. Kalia, Shelly, Porsche and Lawon don't have a chance. 

Real Housewives of New Jersey: Christmas Episode

I guess blogging is my future. I'm at the Louisiana Baptist Youth Encampment and just auditioned for a role in the Annual Drama, but didn't get it. If I had gotten the role, I wouldn't have been blogging. I didn't get it, so here I am! 


I have a hunch as to why I didn't get it. While at the drama, the girl who got my role was thanking one of the directors. Her speech went as follows, "I'd like to thank one of the directors, my mother..." - I knew I didn't get it because I knew that she went to church with one of the directors, but I had no idea that they were mother and daughter. Oh well, God knew what he was doing because I got a chance to blog on the same night as the episode AND I got a chance to minister to people through mime. I'll see if I can figure out how to post some pictures and the video of the mime performance. 


 I'm so proud and happy that Joey and Melissa kicked Monica Chacon out of the party. I'm also happy to see Melissa and Teresa dancing together. I know that everything can't be forgotten in an instant, but I'm glad they are putting things away and enjoying the holidays. 


Here Kim G goes stirring up trouble. Her friend, Monica got kicked out of the party - so I guess she's trying to save face and make herself look better. However, Teresa is right...Kim G does look like a duck. 


Mama Caroline is setting Kim G straight! Caroline will set you straight. Kim G needs to be set straight! She's crazy! Chris Manzo (Caroline's son) had to escort Kim G out. In the end, Kim G got kicked out of the party...just like Monica Chacon. I'm starting to think that Melissa shouldn't throw parties because every time - there's just DRAMAAAAA!!! 


Kim G is now stirring up drama with the relationship of the friendship of her son and Caroline's son. Kim G needs to get a hobby, man, dog or all of the above because obviously, she's craving attention. She just wants to be on the camera because of all this drama she's causing. She came to hurt because she thinks Teresa called her "Kim Grannytelly." 


Okay, I know Teresa and Joe have four daughters but I really didn't need to know that you all are going to make passionate love all night. Ew that's just gross. I don't want to imagine anyone having sex, but myself. Plain and simple. 


Here Kathy is cooking. Maybe she's using this as a chance to promote her restaurant or whatever. I'm so done with her and her two-faced husband of hers. "I didn't get a chance to invite her." Uhhh, what about text, email, phone call??? Kathy's mama just as messy as she is...


Teresa invited Melissa and the kids over for Christmas. Baby steps, baby steps. I'm excited to see how that all works out. 


Caroline is backing giving advice to people. She seems like a great person to get advice from. She tells it like it is, but also in a loving way. 


Teresa's house for Christmas Eve. Teresa's parents are here. Everyone is having fun. Let's see if that lasts when Melissa gets there. Now we see Melissa getting her kids ready, and she keeps saying "It's Jesus' birthday" - omg when will she stop?! Antonia (Melissa's daughter) asked how old Jesus was and Melissa dumb ass says "He's 89" - really bitch? Jesus died in like 32 AD. So you could at least say 2,000 years old. And not 89!!!


Caroline's house seems stressful during Christmas. All of these people, would make me overwhelmed. It's too many people. I want a big family, but they just got too many people. I bet Caroline calling Kim G "a fool" is going to come up at the reunion, when Kim G pops up at the reunion, to which she's not a housewife...


OMG! Look at all these people at Caroline's house. It's just too many people. Aw! Caroline and Al are so in love. "I love you boobie" - that's just so cute! I want to be old and in love like them. 


Ashley, I feel you girl. I know my dad loves me, but I don't think he likes me. Scrooge...is just a Scrooge. All I can say is BAH HUM BUG! when he makes me mad. But I'm still having a hard time coming to grips with that. I do need to listen (like Ashley), but I'm not as selfish and inconsiderate as Ashley is - I just need to take constructive criticism. 


I'm mad Melissa has a nanny. What do you do all day? I mean really...take care of your children. Oh yeah, I forgot she's in the basement singing in the studio that Joey built you. Now see, Melissa is being messy bringing all those damn cookies. I know Teresa requested a specific type of cookies, but do you need ALL those boxes? Teresa threw Melissa's cookies away...because they were store bought. If I'm going to waste calories on desserts, they better be homemade. I can go get store-bought cookies any day of the year. 


Okay, so why is Melissa dressed like a hooker? I mean, I'm just asking. It's Christmas. Put on a Bill Cosby Christmas sweater and some jeans and some heels and call it a day. 


I'm sorry. My kids are not believing in Santa. For what? I bought those damn gifts. Not some fat guy in a red suit. No Santa, Easter Bunny, Tooth Fairy. Nope. ALL ME AND MY HUSBAND! If you want your kids to keep their innocence, then don't bring them around Brielle, Brynne, Brayden or Blake because they WILL ruin your kid's Christmases, first tooth, etc. I'm just saying. 


Milania and Antonia are so cute. Even though, Antonia looks JUST like Melissa :/. 


I'm happy they put the past behind them, well at least for one day. 


Can't wait until next episode! 

Real Housewives of New Jersey: Twas the FIGHT before Christmas

Joe and Teresa are putting up the Christmas tree with the girls! One question, why doesn't Gabriella look like the rest of the Giudice girls? 


Melissa wants everything perfect for her huge Christmas party that she's throwing this year, for "Jesus' birthday" - really? Jesus was born in a barn. He doesn't really care about your party and the perfectness of decorations and whatnot. 


Waitttttt!!! I didn't know Joe went to jail for a DUI. Do most people go to the jail for a DUI? Don't they just have to pick up trash on the side of the road, pay a fine and be on probation? Or were they just doing the most to prove a point because of who he is? I'm mad Teresa lied to the girls. Hell, they need to know! Don't drink and drive! "A fishing trip???" Really? I hope they don't watch Bravo! 


Melissa...Melissa...Melissa...I have no words. I really don't like her! Like ewww!!! Go away! Melissa and her sisters are just fame-hungry whores who will do anything to stay in the spotlight. Especially her sister Lysa. 


I know all of the families on RHONJ are really close and family-oriented but I'm tired of all the children getting all this spotlight! I want to know about the drama between the HOUSEWIVES and not between Chris, Albie, Lauren, Ashley, etc. 


I'm sick and tired of Ashley's complaining. STFU! Plenty of people come from broken families and are doing fine. Build a bridge and get over it! She steady complaining about how she and Chris (her step-dad) aren't that close, but she driving around in the car that HE PAID FOR! She can't even afford her car note working at an unpaid internship!  


I wonder how late Ashley was to her birthday dinner. I think I took the cake with my tardiness. I was about 2 hours late to my birthday dinner. But that's okay, because I was GOOD AND DRUNK! Plus, everyone stayed - so they must love me! :) 


Melissa is planning her party and keeps on reminding people that it's "Jesus' birthday." Is his name really Fabulous Fred? Moving on.... Holddddddd up! She's having craps tables and blackjack. Did anyone remember when Jesus flipped the tables over because of the gambling. Since this is "Jesus' birthday" shouldn't you not gamble and honor his wishes? I can't take Melissa. She's steady talking about how close she is to God and Jesus but her actions don't reflect her attitude! 


Caroline and Al are still in love. They are so cute together! You can tell she loves her some Al and vice-versa! 


This should be an interesting party!!!


Teresa's mom is right! Imitation is the best form of flattery! 


Why does Melissa look like she's getting married? With that lil tiara on her head... Whatever happened to a pot-luck with family and gossip about the town people? This party is just too much. I hate to see rich people spend money on frivolous things like money with their faces on it (What's the purpose? Y'all just gone throw it away anyway.) and people dressed like carolers. When I become financially comfortable - I'll invest in GUNS and not BUTTER! 


Kathy looked really awkward when Melissa was going through her panty drawer looking for a g-string. I personally like my ass covered. Those cotton drawls from Victoria's Secret (this reminds me - I need to go pay Vicky). This may be TMI - but hell it's MY blog. So I will say what I please, with that said - thongs and g-strings are cool but only if necessary. Why wear it on a daily basis only to feel like you got a stick up your ass? And I don't wear them to church, I feel like a hooker, heathen, whore, and every name in the book. Is it just me or does everyone feel like that? Okay, back to the episode....


I'm ready for the drama! 


Shoutout to the black dude! Kenneth Morris representing for the Children's Hospital! 


Why is Teresa driving, and not Joe? He was probably drunk...People never learn. After a tragedy, people live right for about 3 months then go back to their ways. Am I right?....or am i right?


DRAMAAAAA!!!! :) Kathy is just ugh! Teresa said hey! What you want her to jump up and down because she's happy to see you? Kathy, men don't care about your drama. Well Rich might because he seems like he would. I hate men who get involved in female drama. I'm surprised Melissa didn't say, "It's Christmas. It's Jesus' birthday. You're not going to cry," when she was consoling Kathy. 


Melissa keep saying, "It's not us. It's the Giudice's. We're the nice people." No boo boo, it's YOUR PEOPLE too! I'm pretty sure that Melissa's brother-in-law's isn't missing that $1,000 if he loaned it. My mama always said, "Never loan something you need," because you NEVER know when you are going to need it or get it back.  


Melissa and Joe Gorga so messy. Why would she invite Kim G knowing it's going to cause drama. Melissa asks Kim G to inform Monica that she needs to leave because she doesn't want drama at the party (maybe she does have a nice bone in her body). Kim G tells Melissa, "oh I can't do that." Umm, this is HER HOUSE! If she doesn't want Monica Chacon there, then Monica Chacon has to leave! If I was Melissa, I'd tell Monica AND Kim G to GET THE FUCK UP OUT MY HOUSE!!! 


YAY! Joe is standing up! Monica get up out the house! Kim G needs to leave! And so does Monica. Kim G steady standing up for Monica! Melissa asked her to leave like 10 times - like take a hint and hit the door! I'm actually proud of Joey and Melissa for respecting Teresa's wishes! I'm glad that they are putting this "silly vendetta" aside and be a family! 


Next episode: more drama with the party! Mama Caroline is going to tear into Kim G's ass! I can't wait!!! 

Big Brother 14 - Episode 3

It's funny how both Keith and Porsche think they are going to both stay in the house. It'll be interesting to see who ends up staying. I want Keith to stay because he's black. 


It's funny how Deacon Keith is steady lying. He really hasn't told the truth since he stepped into the house. 


The house is playing Big Booty. They played this game on After Dark like 5 nights ago. I'm going to need the producers to do better!!! The Vets are only playing Big Booty because they want The Newbies to vote their way. 


Brendon and Rachel are starting to seclude themselves again. Brendon is a little bitch and I can't see them together. I just can't. They are just too awkward. I couldn't have a man that I could run right through. I would get bored with that. Brendon is really upset because Rachel told someone that she calls him "Bookie" - lawd! STFU! Omg! Hell, we call one of my cousins Bookie! I can't deal with him! I'm done with him! Moving on....


The Vets are trying to recruit some Newbies for their side, so they can keep Porsche. I hope the Newbies stay true to the 8 and not vote for the Vets. The Newbies need to stick together!!!


For CBS to show Keith humping the hell out of Dominic! That is too funny!!! 


Daniele and Dick's relationship creeps me out. Daniele didn't want to say she loved her father. I know that could be awkward, but don't make yourself look like an ass on tv. 


Keith is gone. Damn Kalia! I hope she gets eliminated! I don't understand how the Newbies are so dumb!!! Now you just gave control to The Newbies! Dummy!!! Keith can only blame himself for this eviction. He picked Porsche for his partner because he was attracted to her - bad move! And she not even cute! 


Time for the HOH Competition! Who will win? Everyone has to put put golf. Lawon made a fool out of himself! I'm watching it with my grandma and she thinks that Lawon should be eliminated just on his dress and his head! 


Jordan is the new HOH! 


BB13 fans - check back next Thursday!
