Lisa Rinna Admits To Being Easily Manipulable; Dishes On Drama Between Lisa Vanderpump And Kyle Richards

Loose lips sink friendships…never is that more true than when gossip comes from Lisa Rinna‘s lips. Dishing on how this season of Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills differs from last season, Lisa isn’t holding back, even revealing there’s trouble in paradise between Kyle Richards and Lisa Vanderpump all because of the ever-present naughty little word “manipulate.” That old friend again…

“I don’t feel like I am the villain this year. It’s not who I am – I just get caught in situations that may look like I could be the villain, I think.” Lisa explains.

“All I know is, the dynamic is different; the energy’s different. Having the new girls come in, bringing all new blood, there’s a lot of other things that go on.”

“It is one of the hardest jobs I have ever done,” Lisa tells Jenny McCarthy. “People can hate the actor, but to hate the person is a different thing. Last year was a very, dark hard year for all of us.”

This season, Lisa bonded and fought with newbies Dorit Kemsley and Eden Sassoon, who were thrown into ring without any preparation, as is the custom on RHOBH. “It’s trial by fire,” explains Lipsa. “You have to go through it. And if you’re where I am now, or where Kyle and Lisa are now, cause they have been here for seven years, you know how to play the game.”

“You have to be your real self or people are like, ‘I call bulls–t on that,'” she warns. One problem with playing your real self on TV is that you’re always bringing your work home with you. Lisa’s daughters Delilah and Amelia Gray have difficulty reconciling the women they know in real life, who are her mom’s friends, with the women they see on the show – including their mom!

“My daughters tell me, ‘You’re good crazy, you’re not bad crazy,'” Lisa laughs. “They love Lisa Vanderpump, they love all these girls, they love Kyle, they love Eileen, so it must be really confusing for them in their heads.”

On her situation with LVP, they’ve come along way, though Lisa is candid that she prefers the kinder, sillier, more motherly LVP on Vanderpump Rules to the LVP on Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills.

“I was watching Vanderpump Rules, and I said, ‘I like that person! Why isn’t that person on our show?'” Lisa jokes. “She’s good on Vanderpump Rules – isn’t that weird?”

Speaking of a not so nice Lisa Vanderpump, Kyle is back in her cross-hairs! Unleash the Pom Army!

The drama started over Kyle’s comment during the premiere episode that LVP will forgive Lipsa sooner than she will forgive Eileen, because Lipsa is easier to manipulate. Lipsa is not mad about Kyle’s assertion, but LVP sure is. “I could not care less,” Lisa scoffs. “I am easily manipulable! That’s the truth!”

Vanderpump was so mad at Kyle for saying that. Seriously. She left the [season premiere] party early,” Lipsa reveals. “She wants Kyle to stand up for her and only say nice things, so I guess if you do not…she got in trouble for it. So, it’s really interesting.”

“No one really likes to have that word said – let’s just say that,” muses Lisa. “Never say never, but I don’t say that word anymore.”

Interesting, indeed.
