by Reality Tea on December 21st, 2012

Love her or hate her, you know Kim Granatell (aka Kim G) brings the drama to New Jersey!

Courtney Stodden’s Mom Says She’s Discriminated Against Because Of Her Beauty

by Reality Tea on December 21st, 2012

Just because Couples Therapy is over doesn't mean that Courtney Stodden will fade away from the spotlight, or so she and her mother Krista Stodden hope.

The Stoddens are trying to remain relevant by attempting to launch Courtney's music career and another reality TV gig, but say that she's going to have a tough time because of her beauty. Everything from this interview qualified as quote of the day material.

The first gem shared by Krista, “She’s a victim of her own beauty. We need to understand all kinds of discrimination. It’s very sad. Courtney is the new Anna Nicole Smith, without the drugs. Everyone wants to be like Marilyn Monroe, but with Courtney the beauty comes from within — like Pam Anderson and Farrah Fawcett.”

The Real Housewives Earn How Much? Salaries Revealed For Bravo’s Most Popular Stars!

by Mary on December 20th, 2012

If you're willing to sacrifice your dignity for a paycheck, Real Housewives isn't a bad gig. The first ladies of Bravo rake in big bucks to cause a ruckus and argue; in addition they get a massive platform for which to launch their products and tirelessly promote them. Of course, Bravo/NBC takes a cut of the profit but the ends justify the means, right?

RadarOnline decided to breakdown who earns what for the network. As to be expected the biggest earners are the biggest drama creators or have the most devoted fan following.

Teresa Giudice, whose family drama has catapulted Real Housewives of New Jersey to the top of the most-watched list for Bravo, earns an impressive $600,000 per season.

Teresa was able to renegotiate her contract and fought for a higher salary for season five, along with conditions, i.e. getting to add a friend or two to the cast. Rumor has it Teresa is by far the highest earning Jersey lady, beating out fellow veterans Caroline Manzo and Jacqueline Laurita. There's also rumors that Teresa is in talks to develop a cooking-lifestyle spinoff!

Former Real Housewives of Miami Star Larsa Pippen Gets Her Own Reality Show!

by Mary on December 13th, 2012

Yes, you read that right! The nanny-challenged ~~terminally boring to the point of a coma~~ former Real Housewives of Miami star Larsa Pippen is going out on her own.

Larsa was fired after one season of RHOM because viewers found her dull and couldn't relate to her storyline which consisted of complaining about all aspects of her fabulous life and degrading "the help." Meanwhile in the off-season Larsa's former NBA star husband Scottie Pippen maybe filed for bankruptcy because he might be broke.

Currently Larsa spends most of her days parading around with Kim Kardashian for exposure on Kourtney & Kim Take Miami, but now she's nobody's latch-key famewhore because she just scored her own show. ~~Who do they think is going to watch that?~~

Real Housewives Blind Gossip!

by Mary on December 13th, 2012

Now this is the least who-done-it reality TV blind I've ever read, but it seemingly sheds a lot more light on some drama happening on the show it pertains to. The drama is between one new Housewife who recently spilled a super-duper secret on the show and one veteran Housewife!

So behold some Blind Gossip about a certain Real Housewives show!

"This Television Personality likes to provide details of her pregnancy and birth so that she can seem like a good mom.

Only it’s all a lie. The Liar publicly claims to have carried her children and to have given birth to them herself. The truth is that she used her money to hire a surrogate (for more than one child) so she wouldn’t 'ruin her body' and she could have babies 'whenever she wanted.' Yes, she is that rich and that superficial. No medical issues. Just vanity.

Well, someone on her television show has called her on her lie. The price for spilling the beans? A lawsuit. This woman is rich and vengeful and she won’t hesitate to use her money to squelch the truth so that she can maintain her image… and hurt The Spiller.
