 | The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills: Kim has a brain!posted by RF Club, Group AdministratorFriday, January 21st 2011 @ 6:23 PM (not yet rated) |
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills! Unforgivable!
Bravo opens with Camille Grammer and the unraveling of her world. I have made it crystal clear that I do not like Camille and I don't BUT I do believe that divorce is hard on families. I don't believe in cheating. PERIOD. If your marriage is over, GET OUT and then move on. Camille seems to be a wackadoodle but Kelsey has two children and he really should have thought of his children. In addition, if he knew his marriage was over, why agree to participate in a REALITY SHOW??? His children will see this divorce play out and how sad?? Did these parents think??? Okay, anyways, the Tony's?? Camille loves to say her little digs. I think everyone was uncomfortable with the little speech. Oh, and in the Limo her rambling on about Kelsey and his love for her, now that was sad. Camille knew the marriage was over, why continue with the uncomfortable remarks?? I know why! A woman scorned!!! She wanted KELSEY TO SQUIRM and he did.
Kyle and her psychic, Rebbecca?? What the hell?? Kyle brings her mom (the box of her ashes I guess???) and a locket of her mother's hair, weird?? But, what I found interesting is when the psychic said your mom will come today and she is concerned about the conflict you are having with another female and the psychic asks, "are you having a problem with another female?" Kyle says her sister???? WHAT??? I am thinking CAMILLE. Wouldn't the mother say to the psychic, "tell her stop fighting with her sister", not another female, right?? (LOL). That whole scene was Fu<%ed up! Whatever!
Taylor and Lisa have a glass of wine scene! What an odd scene. Lisa seemed baffled by the birthday party invite. She seemed to question the "Russell is giving me a birthday party" statement. Not sure what that was all about. Was Lisa questioning Taylor or was that to cue us in that Bravo was setting up the last shindig??? It just seemed odd. In addition, the entire scene was tense. Lisa started with a dig to Taylor about shopping and Taylor threw a dig right back at Lisa. These two ladies DON'T like each other. Why?? Are they really fighting over Kyle?? Now, that is immature. I can't stand Taylor but I have to admit Lisa seems a little catty about the friendship. I think Lisa can see Taylor for WHAT SHE IS but sometimes you have to let a friend find out for themselves that a person is phony. Kyle needs to figure Taylor out for herself. Now,I must admit I disagreed with Lisa on another point. There was no need for Taylor and Kim to hash things out. Sometimes 'putting it to bed' is LETTING IT GO. Just STOP talking about IT. Move on. Never bring up again. Finished. Maybe, Taylor should have said that it was over and time to STOP talking about it all the way around??? I mean Kyle and Camille had talked it out, right?? Tennis party and all that jazz!! It seemed over!!!
Lisa picking out her purple dress, snore. The dress is gorgeous but I am over the Cedric problem. He has stayed too long. Suck it up and tell him to move along *sigh*
Kim getting her makeup lesson. That scene was enlightening. Oh and not because I learned a new makeup trick, nope. Listen, I love old movies and I know Kim Richards past. She was a Disney Child star. She was the workhorse of her family, NOT KYLE. Kim worked with some very famous stars in her day and Kim had a nice career when she was young. I believe her when she says she kept her family afloat. I am sure her mother claimed manager status and used Kim's money to support the family. This means young Kyle and Kathy were supported with Kim's money too. I think the Richards led a very dysfunctional lifestyle.
Lisa, Ken and Cedric pool scene. UGH!!! Lisa seems to talk straight to everyone else but Cedric. Kind of funny??? Lisa seems to have a lot of sympathy for Cedric and none for her best friend's sister?? Very interesting. Anyways, way to go Ken!!! Loved the way he said it was TIME but wow, it took a YEAR!! Guess, Ken really loves Lisa (LOL)
Honestly, I must admit I could care less about Taylor's marriage. I have a feeling Russell will eventually dump her ass. I think Taylor married him for the LIFESTYLE and he married her for her looks and eventually it will all GROW OLD!! Not the first couple in Beverly Hills to be in such a relationship!!
Wackadoodle Camille Grammer found out her husband was having an affair from the apartment doorman and she STAYED in New York City??? Like I said, can't stand Camille but if the doorman insinuated there was another Mrs. I think Camille should have taken the first flight out and started divorce proceedings and went for the gusto! You know ALL the cash!! (LOL)
The Birthday Party!!! Clearly this was the end of the season shindig. Adrienne's brother's were there, Kyle's kids were there, Lisa's daughter, you know like all Bravo's end of season parties. Why would those people be at Taylor's birthday party?? Anyways, we get through everyone showing up. Kyle bemoans Kim being late. "Kyle, Kim is an adult, you don't need to be embarrassed or apologize." Now, that we know Kim is an alcoholic I think we know what Kyle really worries about, right? We see some cute little chit chatting. Adrienne tells a funny story about Paul preferring to golf at Pebble Beach with Mark Walhberg (name drop). We have to endure Russell's painful speech. "Oh, Russell, next time write something." Then, we have to watch Lisa pretend to be concerned about Taylor's marriage and Taylor puts on her 'somber' face for Lisa. But, then it all unravels to a sad scene and who instigates it??? C'mon all together now! TAYLOR. That woman didn't jump in the fire! Hell, no! She lit the fucking fire and it went into a Three alarm blaze!!
Taylor approaches Kim and she is out for blood. She states that "Kim wound her up at LAX" and basically blames everything on Kim. Taylor then professes to have a great relationship with Kyle clearing insinuating that Kim does not. Kyle flies over and you know BFF Lisa is quick to follow. I agree with Adrienne I can see why Kim felt attacked. SHE WAS!! AND WORSE if Kyle KNOWS her sister is an alcoholic then you don't attack when they are drunk. Taylor and Lisa really did not help the situation. I think that Lisa eventually tried to calm down and help but it was too late. Kind of Sort of. Only Adrienne could see that it was getting mean and nasty between two sisters and space was needed.
Oh, and I am starting to notice Kyle always takes the friends side when fighting takes place. I mean she sent her off in a limo alone after ripping her to pieces and wouldn't answer the phone when the dinner from hell took place. Kyle is not innocent when it comes to Kim.
Kim was right about a few of her observations. None of the ladies would let IT die. In addition, Taylor puts words in people's mouths, definitely a pot stirrer. Yet Kim the alcoholic could remember exactly what Taylor said (LOL). In addition, Kim might be a drunk but she definitely knows that Taylor is a fake. I mean,Kim might be ruining her liver but she still has a brain and she can read people. I think Kim knows her sister is a little phony at times too. Kim likes hibernating in her house. She doesn't need 'to lunch'. I think she was trying to say to her sister, " I don't need all of this to be happy." Now, I am not sure hibernating and drinking is the answer but a reality show??? What the hell was Kyle thinking??
I must admit I am tired of Kyle whining about taking care of Kim. "Don't. REALLY,Kyle, DON'T."
In addition, why didn't Kim back her up with the entire Camille thing?? It seems like Kim knows something about that conversation?? It makes me wonder. In addition, "Kyle who would really believe a sister backing you up??" Let it go!! But the reason I question things is because the way Kim looks at Kyle, it is a look like, "You know why I am not backing you up!" Maybe, there is more to the conversation between Kyle and Camille than WE all know. Also, KIM keeps saying, "CAN WE JUST LET IT GO!" Almost like a pleading statement!
Off to the Limo!! Kim repeatedly says she felt attacked. They should have let her go home!! Adrienne really tries to help by LISTENING TO KIM. She validates KIM. Unlike the other women. Adrienne doesn't necessarily agree with her but it is important to LISTEN to a person and VALIDATE their feelings. Now, it is also easier for Adrienne to do this because she was not emotionally involved but we all know that at times you have to LISTEN tot he person you love. Kyle should befriend Adrienne but Adrienne wasn't YESING her like Lisa and Taylor does. I like Lisa but she is your true BFF she stands by Kyle no matter what and at times that is great but not always correct. So, Kyle got in the car and blamed everything on Kim. She claimed that Kim created a scene. Bullshit. Taylor started the shit and yet Kyle attacked Kim. Way to back up your sister KYLE!!
But Kyle pissed me off when she said, "Mom had to die worrying about you and stressing about you and leave this shit on me." That sent Kim over the edge and then the fight went crazy. Kim went off about Kyle 'stealing' her home and then Kyle went ballistic. I mean,She was going to hit Kim and then the ULTIMATE DISS. KYLE announced on National Television that her sister was an alcoholic. To me that is way below the belt, way below the belt. Kyle clearly has a temper. Yes, I am sure Kim's alcoholism has weighed heavy on the family but Kim is an adult and Kyle does not need to babysit. Kyle most likely is an enabler. Kim has a problem. Kyle has anger issues and she trusts friends more than family.
What is sad is Kyle embarrassed her entire family. I mean think about it. Kim's children have to be mortified. Kyle's kids are probably hurt by Kim's comments. These women forgot that their entire families would be affected but Kyle went for the jugular with an alcoholic and wasn't Kyle's idea her sister do the show?? I really do hold Kyle more responsible for the entire debacle and I hope Kim gets the help she needs. Most important, Kim needs to do it for herself and she needs to back away from Kyle.
As much as I like Lisa I do believe she needs to back away from this situation and not stir that pot. Sometimes you have to stay out of family fights. I must admit that 'putting it to bed' should have been DROPPING IT!!
I am not on a TEAM. I really like Kyle, Kim, Lisa and Adrienne. I think at times we all make error in judgments. I hope Kyle and Kim work through this horrible family fight. As far as Taylor. I am not fond of her at all. I think she married for money and I do believe she is phony. I can't stand PHONY. Camille is whacked but I do hope that her divorce goes somewhat smooth for her children sake. I feel kids have their innocence shattered when divorce happens but with love and parents who PARENT above the anger they can survive it and be happy!!
Okay, so what did you think about the finale??
