Shahs Of Sunset Star Lilly Ghalichi Under Fire, Apologizes For AIDS Joke

by Melissa on December 11th, 2012

Following Sunday night's episode of Bravo's Shahs of Sunset, Lilly Ghalichi came under fire for an offhand comment she made about AIDS.

The "joke" was part of a~~n entirely too long~~ segment about crotch juice and crotch liners. While I thoroughly enjoyed learning about Lilly's line of sexy swimsuits, hearing her design ideas, and seeing a model try one on, I could have totally done without the cutesy crotch juice explanations. Swimsuits have crotch liners… we know why… end of story.

While looking through a rack of suits, Lilly caught site of a wrinkled (Actually soiled? I have no idea.) crotch liner. Lilly handed the suit to her assistant, Jill, and said, "There's crotch juice!" Joking around, Jill removed the liner with a tissue and held it over Lilly's computer.

Lilly shrieked, "Don't put that on my computer! There might be AIDS on there!"

The "joke" was inappropriate and didn't add anything to the story, so I chose not to include it in the recap of the episode. Following the show, fans bombarded Bravo's website, Twitter, Facebook, and other online forums, voicing their disgust. As a result of the negative backlash, Lilly has issued an apology for the inappropriate comment.

Big Rich Texas Recap: Booger Proposes… And Rocks The Panda Tank Like No Other

by Melissa on December 10th, 2012

While the Big Rich Texas ladies were in New Orleans, Bonnie Blossman discovered that Leslie Birkland filed a police report against Jason. Apparently, Jason's altercation with Tyler at Leslie and Rip's engagement party left Leslie traumatized and concerned about her family's safety.

The next morning, the ladies discuss the previous night's events, mimosas in hand. While the details of Bonnie and Leslie's blow up are crystal clear, the rest of the night is kind of a blur. Melissa Poe asks, "Did we kiss somebody last night?" Oh yes, she, Connie Dieb, and Cindy Davis most certainly did make out with complete strangers, albeit hot ones. Yay for alcohol!

Melissa explains that nobody went after Leslie the night before, but they're all anxious to hear her ~~spin on~~ side of the story now. The ladies set up camp in the living room and wait for Melissa to bring her downstairs. Turns out – Leslie is nowhere to be found.

Ah, there she is, back in Texas.Thankfully, neither Kalyn Braun nor Tyler has a job, so Leslie knows to look for them by the pool. "You guys are not gonna believe what happened to me," Leslie cries. "Bonnie's turned against me." Leslie adds, "I'm the victim! You'd think she would have been remorseful for what her husband did." Moving on, Kalyn asks for Leslie's permission to date Paul. Leslie is like, the old guy? (Pot, Kettle. Kettle, Pot.) The 28-year-old nerd? Kalyn asks Leslie to at least meet Paul before she passes judgment. Leslie agrees.

Shahs Of Sunset Recap: The Persian Nose Business Is Serious Business

by Melissa on December 10th, 2012

Shahs of Sunset is back, and the ratings, insults, hair and boobs, and fights are bigger than ever. Last week's season two premiere ended with an explosive fight between Golnesa "GG" Gharachedaghi and Asa Soltan Rahmati.

At the Zoom Room, a social club for L.A.'s richest dogs, GG and Mercedes "MJ" Javid discuss the disastrous dinner party. GG dismisses anything negative or raunchy that MJ has to say about her behavior the night before. GG claims she doesn't remember anything that happened, including her new guy's hand up her skirt at the dinner table, but she remembers every single word Asa said. That's some tricky whiskey. ~~Taking the high road,~~ GG says she should have toasted to Asa's non-lipoed, blubber ass.

Moving on, over dinner, Asa tells her parents that she has moved back into her house ~~because she's broke~~. Without missing a beat, Asa's mom tells her to get a job. Asa says, "Are you serious right now? I'm a Persian Pop Priestess. That's my job." Mom asks, "What the hell is that?" I'd like to know, too.

Asa laments, "If you're not a lawyer, doctor, or engineer, you're a slave in my parents' eyes." Asa's mom begs Asa to go back to school, to get her PhD. Asa says she has three PhDs – Persian. Pop. Priestess. Needless to say, mom isn't impressed with her credentials.

Has Cameron Diaz Fired Rachel Zoe?

by Melissa on December 7th, 2012

According to a major news outlet, Cameron Diaz has fired Rachel Zoe as her stylist. I know, I know – how can we possibly go on with our regularly schedule Friday after reading such devastating news? It won't be easy – but we must try.

The New York Post has reported that Cameron is no longer working with Rachel, adding, "Some sources snipe that Zoe's been too busy building her own empire, with clothes, shoes, bags and accessories bearing her name, and that she's got less time for styling her celeb clients."

Top Chef Seattle Recap: Fourteen Chefs Went To The Market, Two Went Boo Hoo All The Way Home

by Melissa on December 6th, 2012

Last week on Top Chef, John Tesar and Josh Valentine created so much drama, Kristen Kish won $10,000 for her extra special mushrooms, Tyler Wiard brought the Eeyore impressions, and Chrissy Camba and Carla Pellegrino were eliminated for soggy salad and undercooked squab, respectively.

Immediately following last week's elimination, the fourteen remaining cheftestants soak in the "Carla's gone" silence, Josh whines because he sucks, and Stefan Richter worries about the season five birthday curse.

Tyler laments, "Being on top today doesn't mean shit. I better continue to do the best I can, because, tomorrow, I could be gone." So goes the Top Chef Seattle kiss of death… Jeffrey Jew excelled in week one and was eliminated in week two. Kuniko Yagi won the elimination challenge in week two and was eliminated in week three. Carla Pellegrino won the elimination challenge in week three and was eliminated in week four. Last week, Lizzie Binder, Kristen, Tyler, and Stefan served the best dishes. As I mentioned above, Kristen rocked the mushrooms and took the prize for the week.

So, what does all of this mean? I have no idea. Will Kristen break the curse? Does Tyler have a reason to be worried? Will Stefan lose because it's his birthday? Will John and Josh keep away from each other this week? Let's find out!
