I was wondering if anything could top the Real Housewives of Atlanta's reunion show hosted by hunky Andy Cohen. When NeNe pointed her finger in Kim's face and called her a "hookah" and ordered the wigged wonder to "keep your legs closed to married men"--- I had the most satisfying and sustained reality TVgasm ever. It was an episode to go down as Bravo's all time best. HEAVEN! Last night's Orange County housewives reunion show wasn't as combative, but it did have its share of highlights. The most memorable, of course, would be Tamra's detailed explanation/ confrontation of exactly what she thought about Gretchen, her relationship with the much older and now deceased Jeff, and her alleged on going romance with a man named Jay Photoglou. The accusation basically was that Gretchen used the dying Jeff to get on the show while in reality was dating this Jay guy on the sly. Hmmmm..... do you all believe it? The Internet is blowing with tons of gossip about that.
Several little birdies have been feeding me gossip about this last season. Some people attached to the show and others who know the cast personally have weighed in. Tons of you hot OC women have emailed me your dish, thoughts, and gossipy tidbits and I want to thank each and every one of you. And those of you OC lovelies who have chosen to make your upper lip the size of a soda can and wear pink velvety track suits with Juicy emblazoned in little tiny rhinestones across your asses and act "girly" well into your 40's--- I want to thank you most of all. Many emailers have have confirmed Gretchen and Jay's relationship a while back and have even sent photos. So this posting won't have any drawings as I'm all OC wives drawn out. :( In place of that, I'll share the photos my reader Dominique sent me. Here's Gretchen and Jay her true boyfriend during the show's filming.
Soak it in. Here's another, and yes that's the engagement ring Jeff gave her. Dominique told me that she learned Gretchen actually has Jay's name tattooed on her ring finger. Classy if that's true.
Wait, there's more. That's Jo De La Remedial second from the left with those horrifying bangs she was rocking during the final episode. Time line anyone?
Dominique emailed me this last night.... Jay and Gretchen supposedly ended their relationship of Feb 9th when she began dating Slade. Ewwwwwwwwwwww. These are Jay's thoughts courtesy of my reader on Slade's arrest:
“I lived with Gretchen in Costa Mesa. And was living out of a suitcase with a friend when I left because she was going to dinner with Slade. When I went to pick up more clothes on Wed Feb 18th Slade's car was in the driveway. I know Gretchen well so I called the police dept to do a civil asst and help me recover some more clothes. I had proper identification to be there so they attempted to get Slade or Gretchen to open the door. No response from them so when I told them I have a way to get in the dispatcher received a call from Slade saying he was with Gretchen and they were in Vegas. Slade called a recorded line to lie to the police. He also told the dispatcher that a neighbor called him to say the police were there. So that is why he called. So I proceeded to enter the house as I did I saw there was Slade's wallet shirt Jacket shoes and car keys were in plain sight. The officer and I then heard foot steps upstairs. But Slade and Gretchen would still not come out of her room. This is public information and probably on a report. I did recover more clothes BUT did not have a moving truck set up so I was only able to get clothes not furniture. The officers did not tell me but I over heard them say He has a suspended Lic and a fake tag on his unregistered car as well as a warrant for $10,000 out of LA county. This is what I think I heard. I will be moving the rest of my stuff out next week.”
Juicy, juicy, juicy. Slade was arrested on Feb 20th on a civil contempt warrant. He was supposedly unaware he had a warrant out due to unpaid child support payments. Ugh... it's all too much.
Aside from all the Tamra/ Gretchen drama, the rest of the show was fairly vanilla. Lynne seemed typically out of it and even cried a bit. Jeana was rather distant and kept defending her sons' bad behavior. And Vicki continued to hold my heart in her hands. When she described her favorite after work outfit as a skanky top and jeans--- I smiled and knew what I'd be wearing today.
Goodbye my sweet OC lovelies. Will see you again Season Five.
To see my drawings and recaps from the past three seasons of this show, please click here.
*** I'm adding this message on after this was originally posted. I'm no Geraldo Rivera or Katie Couric, although I do have a Katie-ish haircut. My photos aren't meant to blow the lid off the Gretchen/ Jay romance or prove they were dating during the show. Not at all. I simply wanted to show him and them together. Most of the photos are clearly from after the show ended as Jeff died in Sept. The only photo which might have been during the show is the one with Jo De LaWhatever but that's also not any sort of evidence. Again, since the reunion show's true highlight came during the Tamra/ Gretchen showdown--- I just wanted to share those images with you all just case you hadn't seen him or them together. For me, trying to be a gossip guru with the insider's dirt is something that's rather awkward. I'm a dish dispensing dabbler but not a pro.
omg, i cant believe this all, but i love love love the drama.
Tamra looked old and hideous at the reunion show and her jealousy over Gretchen still stinks!
Gretchen needs to grow up and say "eff off" to everyone that does not care much at all for her or her lifestyle. Why does she care so much about what these women think?? They're all old and married/divorce...
live your own life Gretchen honey!!!
Vicki, I will always love her, no matter what. And she looked spectacular in that dress!!!!
Lynn looked nice as well and I couldnt believe she cried over that Jeana "stupid/dumb" comment, she shouldve snapped right back about Jeana's boring, depressing, submissive a$$!!
Looking forward to the next season!!! and hopefully they'll bring back Tammy K. and get rid of Lynn.

I can't belive the DRAMAmine that happen last night..it was beyond crazy.
I wish Jeana would stop defending irresponsible and rude behavior, but I think she's been programmed that way by her ex-husband. I think she deserves to be treated that way and she definitely doesn't. She's a hot mama!
Posted by: Anthony | February 25, 2009 at 07:06 PM
I shot my Jesus juice through my nose when Gretchen was talking about how classy they were and that show was a skank-free zone. Tamra and Vicki really do hate Gretchen. You have to hand it to Tamra for keeping it real and busting her ass on the Jay stuff. Can't wait until next season.
Posted by: jimmy | February 25, 2009 at 07:11 PM
Vicki was really rude though and out of control...anytime she was attacked or Tamra was, she just snapped back in her big nose way of "no, that's not true" - it was very condescending.
Posted by: vicki hater | February 25, 2009 at 08:11 PM
So juicy makes my mouth water.
Firstly, the candid photos, ooh la la. They are more fun if you view them around 150% to drink in the details.
Gretchen's skin tones are all over the place.
Residue of a poorly applied tan in the can on her hands. Her decolletage a charming combination of molting fake tan, brozer powder,tequilla shot that did not all go in her Ginor-mous mouth, saliva from Lou the Photog and her natural skin tone. No photo shopping done there.
Lou the Photog,thanks for your input. You looks like a robust fellow. Looks like he is going right in for a snatch grab in photo 2.
Joe, well, why bother stating the obvious.
I tip my hat to you Tamara well played! I wish one of those lil birdies got a gander at the will.
Lynne's emotional outburst some sort of withdrawl, long drive to the studio?
Thanks again Gilmore for all of your hardwork. Vicki's next cruise, sets sail from Florida in March, I would secretly love to go. The Vicki cruise promises something for everyone.

I'm still calling b.s. on Tamra "I need to get over myself" Barney. Obviously she was with this guy on New Years Eve, about 3 months after Jeff passed away. Jo "I'm the next Mariah" and her lovely hair only prove that she kept that style for a few months, and may still have it now. It was also obvious that Gretchen was lying when she said that she didn't sleep with this winner. At the end of the day, why do Vicki and Tamra care anyway? They never liked, or wanted to get to know, Gretchen. For all they know Jeff may have been ok with Gretchen getting some loving on the side, since he knew that he was going to die (and wanted to). It was their relationship, he was married 5 times, his children liked her per their interviews, and it's not like he got to be as successful as he was by being dumb. Tamra and Vicki just need to get over themselves, and worry about themselves. They have far deeper issues than Gretchen at this point.
Posted by: alicia | February 25, 2009 at 10:04 PM
This is a side note- Why do they wear so much freakin' make-up????? It ages them, and they aren't even old!
Posted by: alicia | February 25, 2009 at 10:11 PM
I had to look at those pictures once more, the first one looks like a picture for a swinger/wife swap magazine. "Fun open minded couple seeking like minded,no fattys need apply. We like nude beaches, tequilla shooters and naked twister. We looove Sknyrd and Bike Week at Daytona. Memba it is always 5 O'clock somewhere."
Posted by: Maggie | February 25, 2009 at 10:20 PM
They didn't film over new years (they stopped in September) and Gretchen even said she still wears Jeff's ring so these pics really are no proof she was with that guy during filming and while Jeff was alive.
Posted by: Jill | February 26, 2009 at 05:22 AM
Did you notice how Vicki puffs her bottom lip out, points her snout upwards and glared at Jeana, Lynn and Gretchen whenever they said anything about Vicki? When she wasn't doing that, she was always sucking those huge teeth.
Tamra was fit for bear and couldn't wait to be the tattle tale on that episode. Wonder what Tamra will do when the table is turned on her and Simon and indeed, they will be soon. Check TMZ.com You know what they say about paybacks, they are a Tamra.
Posted by: runwithwind | February 26, 2009 at 05:31 AM
You are a master, G. Cant wait for the book!
So if I think ole Gretch is a lying tramp who deserved the smackdown from my hero Tamra, does that mean I am a withered jealous bitch? If I am not moved by tears from that leathery stump Lynne, am I heartless psycho like Vicki? If I think Jeana's covert meanness is so much more devious than V & T's outspoken idiocy, do I have to give up my membership card?
Posted by: Cam | February 26, 2009 at 06:15 AM
Tamara was hilarious. I love her! Gretchen is ridiculous. Trying to say things to make everyone look old so she looks younger, it was so obvious. I'm 30, and I know who Florence Nightengale (although I can't spell it, apparently) is!!
Posted by: Jaime | February 26, 2009 at 06:39 AM
Oh look! Gretchen's tiara. New Years....2008-2009 to be exact. 3 and a half months after Jeff died.
Posted by: dingdong | February 26, 2009 at 06:44 AM
How could the first picture have been taken during filming?? Jeff passed away a few weeks after it ended and that was in September? Were they filming for a whole year before that? Because Gretchen is clearly wearing a "Happy New Years" headband.
Just curious!!
Posted by: Kathryn | February 26, 2009 at 06:56 AM
Well I'm not proud of it, but my jaw dropped with delighted amazement when I read "prolonged TVGASM" and I think I was just able to finally: Shut mah mouth! (classy ain't I?)
You are tooo F*n Funny!
I don't watch because nothing these broads do could ever be as funny as your indepth analysis! Thank you for taking one for the team!
(Team NeNe, that is)
Posted by: Vern | February 26, 2009 at 07:33 AM
Who cares. you are pro Tammmaaaaah and it shows. So what if Gretchen had a man on the side. Tamaarah is no virgin and I am sure she has done a bunch of guys and more even to get and keep Simon (who wants Grechen how bout that). I wish they off Taammmarh off the show. She is a wannabe, uneducated trailer park person and IS NOT THE HOTTEST HOUSEWIFE ANYWHERE depite all her TONS OF PLASTIC SURGERY. Leave Gretchen alone. She is living her life plastic free and looking fabulous! I wish someone would kick Barney;s azz. WHERE IS FRED. and why in the hell would this Jay person be calling and keep calling Tamarrah unless she WANTED TO SPEAK WITH HIM TO GET DIRT ON GRETCHEN?? Only a DOG CARRIES A BONE. TAMARRAHHH GET A LIFE. I AM SURE YOU WILL STAY ON THE SHOW BECAUSE YOU AND YOUR SPOUSE NEEDS THE MONEY.
TRIFLIN!!!!! AND STOP TRYING TO BE BETHANNY. SHE DOESN'T LIKE YOU EITHER.

Let me just say this...That shit was the most entertaining thing I've seen on TV in ages.
Point number two: Tamra is a sniveling ho who needs to get her player card revoked. WTF? I mean, even if that shit is true about Gretchen, how jacked is it that Tamra would come out her face like that on national TV, putting all of old girl's business in the streets.
Listen, I know dudes who cheat on their wives. I know wives who cheat on their husbands. But I wouldn't player hate on even the one's I hate like Tamra did on Gretchen. That shit was just foul, yo. Stanknasty, butt-ass foul. Tamra...you are...the...Stankin' Ho of The Weeeeeeekkkk!

*sigh*
I have only one question/comment = what Good did Tams' outing of Gretchen do?
answer = it only confirms TamRaa's intimidation/insecurity of having Gretchen on the show.. and made her look ugly, ultimately
Posted by: boo | February 26, 2009 at 12:01 PM
I totally agree with the posting from "cannot stand Tammarrrrah " -I also cannot stand Tamara, she is so juvenile, insecure, jealous and just plain sad! Come one...what kind of secure, confident woman who supposedly has it all together has to resort to this type of behavior. A poor example of a mom that’s for sure – she is the most back stabbing of all the OC housewives, really, I’ve heard her bad mouth everyone of them in some way. I think she displays this behavior because she feels inadequate not only for her husband (he is allegedly some Brit that has had a proper upbringing, unlike what she has had, or so it seems by the mannerisms and appearances of her mom and dad….wow, trailer park anyone) but the other OC wives…really, and what do people do that feel inadequate, they lash out, they belittle others to make themselves feel worthy. Who knows how its all going to come out in the end, either Gretchen was really in love with Jeff, loyal and was with him to the end, or she was cheating, but aside from this, doesn’t Tamra have other things to do with her life besides beating up on Gretchen, like maybe taking care of her
3 young children, doing something with her 22 yr old pathetic rodent looking son, or maybe (since she has oodles of money) go to a decent hair salon and get a deep conditioning treatment for that straw like hair of yours! I found it hilarious at the finale, where Tamra’s husband takes her aside and gives her a diamond tennis bracelet, yeah, because he couldn’t given this to her at home, perhaps, like a family thing….all for the cameras baby…who got the most bling bling! And then she acts all surprised…yeah ok! Can’t wait until season 5!!!!

Haley,
Thanks for sharing that site, I think I just puked a lil in my mouth. All along I thought it was the Barney's who would have the stolen sex tape release party, my money is now on Gretchen. I think I need a mint.
Posted by: Maggie | February 26, 2009 at 12:25 PM
OH Please! It is a reality show, if the girl had something to hide she should not have signed on the dotted line. Did she NOT think the world would not find out about her lies. She is a hooker! It makes me sick that people defend her, she used a dying man to get on TV. It is not about cheating it is about being a liar.
Posted by: OC sandy | February 26, 2009 at 01:04 PM
Oh Good Lord Gretchen! You are a beautiful girl, can't you do better than this Photoglow guy. He is sooooooooooooo creepy looking. And now Slade?. I know there have to be at least a couple better guys out there in LA, especially you being in your prime. No excuse to settle for that!
Posted by: ccsf | February 26, 2009 at 01:06 PM
Did you notice how Tamra called Gretchen a "F*cking victim," while Tamra boo-hooed and whined about her parents' divorce? Who was the "victim" then? Gawd, Tams, you were 25 when you're parents split up, and already a parent yourself. Grow the eff up.
Posted by: Victoria | February 26, 2009 at 02:46 PM
tamera is gross she is a jealous bitch! hhaha she needs to grow up and get a life stop worrying about other people your PATHETIC
Posted by: ashley | February 26, 2009 at 04:02 PM
So did anyone want to say to Tamra....like I did ....during the episode where she meets up with her dad... "I didnt know whether to hand her a tissue or hadn her an oscar" with a sneering face while leaving my mouth open as she did in a previous episode. The person that said she was Trailer park trash hit it right on! I cant stand Tamra...jealous and insecure like everyone else says. People that have nothing better then try to make others look bad are pretty darn lowly and sad. I hope she doesnt come back so we dont have to see her burnt/wrinkled overprocessed hair and breasts
Posted by: Michelle | February 26, 2009 at 04:06 PM
Unfreakin'believable....I wanted to smack that smirk off of Vicki's face every time the camera panned over on her pretending to stifle a laugh! And her sudden amnesia over how shitty her son has regularly treated her over the past few years? And her sudden amnesia over her bringing beer to her son on his college campus?
They sat in order of needing their asses kicked...Vicki for her self-righteous smugness; Tamra for her overblown hostility, shitty family, shitty life and general all around assholishness; Jeana for talking about Gretchen on the way to the show & her shitty family; Gretchen for her inability to lie convincingly; and Lynne for letting her kids walk all over her. Lynne does get bonus points for having real feelings and showing them...warm hugs to Lynne!!
Vicki needs a padded room and Tamra needs to get over herself. All this plastic melted in this year's heat...but I can tell by Lauri's face that she didn't escape fast enough!! Horrible people with horrible problems-horrible lives-and horrible relationships. Now I need a nice Cabernet!!
Thanks for a great column, Gilmore! xoxo
Posted by: ellaminnowpea | February 26, 2009 at 06:08 PM
Loni Anderson, opps, I mean Tamra, is so pathetic. "It's about moral character." Oh really. She said she didn't make Gretchen drink those shots, but she was not only ordering Gretchen shots - she was making BJ hand gestures and whispering to Lynne and telling Vicki she wanted to get her "naked wasted." KLASSY!
Gretchen's been playing everyone since day one, why is any of this surprising? I love how she explained she was at a party the night before they went to Del Mar. When exactly was she at the hospital? But then again does it even matter? Who effin cares besides Tamra?
Tamra does not wear jealousy well. She looked HIDEOUS last night. I'm trying to remember what she used to look like, because I recall her being attractive, but clearly the HOT has turned to NOT. She looks like an old lady's version of trying to be hot, with every expression erased from her face, evil dagger eyes, and a ratty fright wig - you go girl! And really, if she wanted a pink Harley, why didn't she buy one herself? I cracked up when they flashed $23,000 on the screen. Is that supposed to be impressive? Just like when they flashed $35,000 for that 10 carat tennis bracelet. Yeah I bet Simon and Ryan had it custom made...who would want a 10 carat $35,000 tennis bracelet (translation - I3)? XStripperJealousTrailerTrash - that's who!
Posted by: Virginia | February 26, 2009 at 07:10 PM
The real scandal here, and someone above said it, is that Gretchen would date the hideous old psychopath looking guy in these pictures. Why? why? Why?
Posted by: Belinda | February 26, 2009 at 09:39 PM
I missed the entire Gretchen/Tamra smackdown because I was reading with my daughter. I would rather spend time with her than the RHOOC, but, after reading the boards I figured I better see what all the hullabaloo was all about. I read everything I could and, I have to say, I come down on the side of Tamra on this one. As a trial lawyer, I am always looking at what evidence there is to back up a claim. Here is the evidence something was going on with Gretchen and Jay:
1. Cell phone #. How would he obtain Tamra's cell phone if he was merely an ex boyfriend? He obviously obtained it and called Tamra. He clearly obtained it from Gretchen.
2. The Ride Home. Gretchen admitted she was giving an old boyfriend a ride home from a party. That alone is simply astounding. The fact she was doing this is not something I want my wife doing and it is something she would not do.
3. The Photos. One can clearly find photographs on the internet with Jay and Gretchen kissing and the ring Jeff gave her is prominently displayed. Even if the picture was taken after his passing, it gives credence to the story that Jay told Tamra and makes me question Gretchen's credibility. If indeed she said to Tamra he was a stalker (which she did not deny), why is she kissing him a short time after Jeff died? Why is Gretchen claiming he is a stalker and then making out with him? That picture alone makes me question Gretchen's credibility.
4. Bass Lake. Gretchen admitted Jay was at Bass Lake with her family but claimed he was a "family friend." Once again, he cannot be a stalker and a family friend (Tamra did a good job of pointing this out and earns points from this litigator). Gretchen takes him to Bass Lake with the family and then two episodes later he is calling Tamra and Gretchen claims she was "giving an old boyfriend a ride home from a party." The same old boyfriend who happened to just show up at Bass Lake with a group of friends? The Del Mar episode apparently occurred on July 16th (that is what the Del Mar site indicates was opening day there in 2008). The Bass Lake incident was July 4th. Coincidence that twelve days after being at Bass Lake Jay is, at a minimum, with Gretchen at the same party and receives a ride home from her?
5. Clothes in Gretchen's bedroom. Even Jeana apparently said she saw Jay's clothes in Gretchen's bedroom at some point. Even if it was after Jeff's passing, I don't think she would have moved Jay into her home that quickly if something was not going on before.
Sorry Gretchen fans. In this litigator's book, Tamra wins the smackdown.
Posted by: The Law | February 27, 2009 at 12:18 AM
I honestly don't care if Gretchen was a gold-digger that was cheating on her sugar daddy. Both her and Jeff knew what they were getting into. Based on his success in life, he obviously wasn't done. I wish Gretchen would've fronted both Tamraaahh! and Vicki about how the lives they portrayed on camera was false too. Like how Simon got fired from Mercedes for giving "extra favors" to women clients. And how Vicki and Don were separated before the show started filming. I would have loved to see the look on their faces if she did that. I can see Vicki's (aka Droopy Dog)face going into twitch overload.
Posted by: Crystal ball | February 27, 2009 at 11:04 AM
After watching housewives of oc reunion I came to the conclusion I'd rather be poor and decent than rich and trashy.I always believed in innocent until proven guilty and Gretchen you are not innocent and I now believe very guilty.I wonder what Jeffs' children think of her now.
Posted by: mmc | February 28, 2009 at 02:46 PM
Look, all these girls got an agenda...who knew the relationships that would form or events that would occur...I certainly don't think anyone expected the drama and hate from these refined ladies...did we. I didn't. Tucan Samantha (aka Vikie)is the worst of the haters; liar, backstabber, counselor; she ain't content with her own marriage-I'll betcha she been hidin a fellow or two's sausage on the sly. Overbearing and rude as hell...I know her eyes hurt, she cant look over her snozz when she lifts it in indignation to others and has a significant distance to view below as she looks down that big ass beak at those whom she feels she's above - I hate that B. Tamra - Jealous, nice looking, but lacks self confidence when better looking girls are around; no doubt she's the best when Gretchen aint around. - Lynn 'that bitch is just crazy; weak, sheltered from reality- and skin like a shammy. - Jeana, are ya'll sho she was a model or pin-up? Okay, maybe so, but damn sho not now; too plump, with moles and bumps dry ass skin and no real backbone. - Gretchen...damn!!!I'd hit that ass, N-T-Time...so, she got her game too, and just played it for what its worth...she was a bit too forward for me...I wanted her to be more classy...but you can't deny how seemingly uneducated she acted, that girl is phinnnne.

Tamra is trailor trash at its finest!!
And no matter how many times she tries to embarass/belittle Gretchen, she always ends up looking like the sore, jealous loser!
Gretchen has the sweetest soul and is beautiful inside and out, even without those big, fake, ugly boobs!!
Posted by: LovingGretchen | March 01, 2009 at 09:06 AM
Good grief-it is new years,her fiance has been dead 3 months,if he had been married 6 times,it is obvious he did not mourn anything for very long.She obviously is on a downhill slide in men,but with Slade,at least we know she has safely made it to the bottom.
Posted by: Mary Squires | March 01, 2009 at 05:48 PM
God, this was gut-wrenching to watch, which is exactly how I like it! Tamra and Vickie hit a new high in lows, and I dont think I can even do justice to the whole debacle. I did note that Vicki was constantly doing the wingman backup ("you know I cried about you too" "No she didnt say that Gretchen, you're fibbing" wtf?) bit to anything that was negatively directed at Vicki OR Tamra. WTF? Let 60 yr old face Tam stand up for herself. The crying jag by Steve Tyler's twin was a hoot, esp coming from little miss Jeana who loves everyone but talks insane shit.
Ugh about Gretchen, did we not think this was going on? Not shocked, but totally amused by the claws coming out about it.
Kudos to ccsf. You called it. 100%.
Cant WAIT for next season.
I'm suffering through RHONYC, thank God for Bethenney Frankel, or that shit would be unwatchable.

To The Law and others who feel a smug need to try and call out "Gretchen fans" (AKA people like me who don't like Gretchen, but loathe the bullying cruelty of Tamra and Vicki): for me and presumably at least a few people, it's immaterial when Gretchen and Photoglou got together. AFAIC, the issue is how Tamra and Vicki decided it was their goddamned business - nay, their goddamned duty - to bring a never aired relationship as a central issue, when both of those crepe-skinned whores have their own skeletons turning their respective closet doorknobs. Here are other things that have been 'proven' to the same extent on the interweb and yet weren't used as weapons by Gretchen against either of them in any blogs, let alone the reunion:
- Simon's firing from the Mercedes dealership, due to his attempting to obtain sexual favors from female customers prior to approving financing. If only Andy or Gretchen had asked Tamra about Simon's insane 'decision' to leave a well-salaried job to pyramid-scheme via a tequila franchise! Andy and Gretchen are probably human, though, so they weren't looking into stab into her silicone underbelly.
- Tamra and Simon being on the cusp of foreclosure, having bled out all equity in their home. Public records show Tamra's not even on the deed. What a marriage of equals.
- Donn and Vicki separating prior to the filming this past RHOOC season, and faking their relationship for the whole taping of the season.
- Donn getting reprimanded for sexually harassing colleagues in his former job with Home Depot.
Cases closed, eh? I'd call you a Tamra fan, or an unironic Vicki fan, but that's just unnecessarily nasty.

For the record, I cant stand Tamra OR Gretchen!
Posted by: Pauletteboston | March 10, 2009 at 05:23 AM
I live in Coto de Caza with these women and they act like they are better than everyone else.
Jeanas kids went/go to my school and they are the most spoiled, rude kids i have ever met. Colton thinks he is hot shit and "he is soo innocent" MY ASS! I have seen him at many parties and he drinks and does drugs. Kara is the queen of all bitches, she is just plain mean and thinks she is hot shit. She may seem nice but I have met her a few times and she was actually very rude.
Now Vicki. OMG. She drives around Coto like she owns it. There is stop signs through out Coto and I have seen her run them multiple times, and twice she has almost hit me, I had to slam on my brakes so she wouldnt run into the side of me the first time, and then I honked at her. She slammed on her brakes as well, looked at me, gave me a very dirty look, even though SHE WAS THE ONE BREAKING THE LAW!, and then she continued driving on like she owned the world. She was also talking on her cell phone both times, which is also a broken law.
When Jo was on the show she was dating Slade, well I knew Slades son Gavin and he HATED Jo. I feel extremely bad for Gavin and I wish he was still around this area.
Lauris son as everyone knows is a HUGE drugy and he is a complete DOUCHE BAG! When he went to my school everyone hated him. He was such an idiot.
I have never met Lynne or Gretchen so I really have nothing bad to say about them. RIP Jeff, and I feel bad for Gretchen. One comment I have to say about Lynne is that she seems like she is always on some kind of drugs. I have never met Tamra either but I hear from locals that she is rude, self centered, and crazy.
When i heard about the show I was not excited. It has put a horrible name on not only Coto but also Orange County. My mom actually had an interview to be on the show and I am thanking God that she didint go to the interview. The show is so fake and stupid and I hope it comes to an end very soon!

Vicky is still the #1 fame whore and torn between her need to control everything and her need to stay in front of the camera....she is a master in getting the camera off of the others and onto her fugly self...witness the scene when the hubbies started to attack her ...she gets up and tells them to "cut" as if she is directing the show...threatens to walk out but does not because the cameras are rolling and she has the spotlight....these guys are totally out foxed by the horrible vicky who sees a clip of herself being her horrible self and proclaims "I did not say that" they call this a reality show because these idiots create their own reality...Vicky will return as long as the cameras' do.

I agree completely Tori D., you basically wrote what i came to, about how Vicki thinks she "runs" the show. She is a hideous, fugly, control freak. She literally has ZERO likeable traits. All we can say about her, is that she works. So fing what. So do millions of other women in this country. She really should just leave the show, as she's just too old, boring, and torturous to watch.
GO AWAY VICKI....YOU JUST SUCK!!
