The real story behind Lisa Rinna’s departure…details in the feud between Teresa and Melissa…and someone’s personal secrets revealed! It’s all here in this epic episode!
So Lisa Renna said that she left the show because of death threats and because she had a vision that her mother wanted her to leave the show. In my opinion, Lisa is leaving the Housewives because the negotiations didn't go the way that she wanted them to go. And Bravo is always gracious in allowing someone to leave with whatever story that they want to tell. And there is always the Housewives side, Bravo's side, and the true side. There are always three sides to a Housewives story. Housewives side, Bravo side, and the true story. I think that Lisa. I know that Lisa Renna and Kyle were experiencing death threats years ago with Puppy Gate. I know that because they told me. I said on Watch It Up and Slive that I told Kyla and Lisa Rinna, which I did, if you're gonna come for Lisavannah Pump, you better not miss meaning like and then the audience took that to me and that they had plotted against her, and like they said they were getting death threats. It wasn't really that deep. I hadn't watched the show. I didn't know the context, So all I said was what I said, and it happened again years later with the Erica Jane thing. Death threats are not anything new but another thing. Oh, let's go on a show and act like it's our job and we have to do it like you know, we must do it, and we're getting death threats. So Lisa Renna did not leave the show because of death threats. Lisa Renna happens to have gotten death threats for years. That's a good thing to say about it. And her mom getting visions. I'm sure that did happen, but it's also not why she left the show. It's usually wrapped up in a bow. It's also very coincidental that Lisa Renna was not go It was Lisa Renna is a great housewife, brought the drama, was you know, always getting herself into something because she put her whole body into it. She didn't mind being she didn't mind being polarizing, she didn't mind being infamous. Lisa Renna, who I told to go on the show and told Andy to have her on the show, and who I told her husband to let, you know, have her go on the show. She was a great housewife. But she left the show when the fans didn't like her anymore and didn't want her on the show anymore. Like that's when Lisa Renna left the show. That's that's when a housewife expires. It's okay, it's not when when it gets dark and the audience is no longer enjoying watching someone, or when it becomes a hate to hate. That's when a person is fired, or their contract isn't renewed, or the money they're asking for isn't given. But there certainly is no scenario where Lisa Renna just decided I don't want to do the show anymore, no matter what you pay me. Bro. That did not happen. So it makes sense that Lisa Renna's mother came up in visions, and it also makes sense that they're have been death threats because that's happened to Brandy, that's happened to Lisa vander Pump, It's happened to Lisa Renna, It's happened to Kyle. This is a show that many people have received death threats on. That does not sound like a great idea. But the only housewives that have point blank quit left by their own choice entirely, meaning not they left because they were being made a friend. Not they left because the money they didn't get at. You know that they left there was like they wanted to leave, is myself, Carolyn Manzo, I think, Dina Manzo, Denise Richards and maybe years ago Lourie. That's really it, ladies and gentlemen. Lisa vander Pump, I think as well, Lisa vander Pump as well, Lisa vander Pump, myself, Carolyn Manzo, Dina Manzo, maybe Laurie and Denise Richards. Those are the housewives said have left completely on their own. Yolanda did not go back, but she was demoted to a friend. Like there are all fifty shades of gray. One season, Luama was demoted to a friend. How did she market that? Vicky was asked to leave? How did she market that Derinda was you know, was not invited back. So it's a pause. Everybody has their own language in a way that they want to say it, but that's the bottom line, and that's a fact. It's also okay to be fired from something where the criteria is to be a fucking train wreck, like it's okay, or you could say it's not okay. How hard is it to just you know, be entertaining on a housewives show, but it's not that easy, so you could look at it either way. It doesn't matter. Nobody's to be looked down upon because they were let go from the Housewives like it's okay, and the people that own that are really secure and it's more interesting. Tamra was let go and now she's back, So what does it really even matter. Melissa and Teresa don't like each other. They don't like each other. Teresa is the raining Queen of Jersey Housewives, but who gives a shit? But she is the raining queen and she does have that, and she does hustle and work hard, and I respect her, and she's a Rushmore housewife, like I'm not team anybody. I think Melissa seems very nice, but the two of them are so obviously in competition and jealous of each other, and it's just like a sport to be competitive about what they're each getting and how successful they are. And I always go back to the same thing that I understand why it drives Teresa nuts. She was an outsider. It was her show that she helped create and build, and Melissa was chosen and she didn't know and so the whole thing just started off wrong. It's like getting a bad start and you can never get your footing. So damage was done back then with resentment and having to fake it till you make it and all of that that is like residual. Now that's one of the biggest problems. And they will never ever resolve that issues. They will never ever really truly like each other. And you know where the worst place ever to nurture and improve a relationship is reality television, Like there's a there are a million people that you actually think you might like because you start filming and you're in you're on a desert island playing the Hunger Games, so you have to align with someone and you don't even know that that's what you're doing, but it's just like kill or be killed, and you just need to feel safe and hide somewhere and know someone and change something. And the producers are definitely saying, like, you guys need to make up. This is enough. The show is getting dark. I mean, the producers were telling Jill that she had to make up with me and she shouldn't keep pushing this rift that season that she came back in and just like hated me and brought it into the show. The producers were looking at the board and they did not think it was going to be good for Jill or the show, so they were telling her. They later told me fix this, like they didn't like it, and the viewers didn't like it. Right, So, but the the person in it can't see the forest from the trees. They just never want to film with the person again. And you're not even thinking about business because you're not thinking about good television. Like they're working and they want their show to succeed, and the only reason that they're even interacting with this other person is because of this show. But they are coworkers, and in order for it to work and the show to work, they have to work together in some way. They can't just be separate and not film. Bravo will never go for that. They'll have to go on a trip together. They'll be they just will have to. They'll have to be together. They'll have to go on a trip together. They'll have to interact. It's toxic. It brings everybody down. Everything, everything is affected. You get to a reunion and like make sure that they don't cross each other's paths, make sure that their dressing rooms are nowhere near each other. Make sure they're not sitting next to each other. One of them is worried about how big the other person's hotel room was, or how what their call time was, or who gets to sit near who, or it's just it's all disgusting, toxic shit that doesn't matter. But I've said before, it's elective stress. They both are working, they both are electing for elect to have this stress in their lives. And the thing is, neither of them are willing to walk away. They are desperate for the show, desperate for the fame, desperate for the relevance, desperate for the work, desperate for the money, because don't remember, anybody who acts rich on reality TV is really not ninety percent of the time. It's all show and no go. So both of them would not still be here if they didn't need the check on some level. Yes that includes Melissa, Yes that includes Joe Gorga, Yes that includes everybody. They need the check, otherwise they wouldn't be there enduring this, or they need the fame. But I think they need the fame and they want that check, so both of them are not willing to walk Bravo knows this, Bravo knows neither of them are willing to walk. I was the worst ever housewife because Bravo always knew I was willing to walk, and I would walk, and that I didn't need the money and I don't need the relevance nor desire it. So both of them will come back. Bravo gets to drive. Bravo gets to say, yeah, well you'll fucking film together, or you won't be coming back, because neither of them is going to say I'm leaving the show if she comes back, because they won't leave. It's gonna be like that thing with two cars on a highway where they keep driving towards each other and someone's gonna have to swerve off, and they're both they're gonna They're both gonna swerve off and do whatever Bravo says. So this is all pomp and circumstance, not unlike for years, every year Kyle or Lisa vander Pump said they were gonna leave the Housewives. One year Lisa eventually did. Kyle always says she's not coming back, but you always know she's coming back. So people don't have a ton of leverage. And every housewife loves to say that they would walk away because it's just words and everyone's fucking talking about how they'd punch somebody in a face in a fight. But when you get punched by Mike Tyson, shit goes sideways. So everybody wants to act like they would walk away. But I've seen housewives Deranda for years. She's like, if it ever ends, I'm walking away. I'm never looking back. I would have a whole new life. And God love her, she's a great housewife. But she's walking back in because she thought that's how she would handle it. But she didn't like the way it felt to not be asked back. Didn't like it. And I've seen it. I've seen Luan overplay her hand negotiating, then get demoted to a friend ask Andy if any of this is not true. I've seen her over play her hand, over negotiate, and then freak out when they start filming. I've seen Sonya and Ramona do it. I've seen them negotiate till the mattresses till at the end and then say they're going to walk, And then Bravo's gonna walk because it's the two trucks on the highway going towards each other, and then Bravo does call the buff and they're like, fine, we started filming ready, you're not in the show. Then they fucking come running back for a lot less money. So the thing is Bravo has the leverage, and good for Bravo. They have the leverage, and the women will do whatever Bravo ultimately wants them to do. So they both if the viewer wants them both back, and if Bravo wants them both back, they will both be back. No one's walking away, no one's leaving. They will have to interact. So once this show is ever over, which it may not be, they will not be friends. They will maybe bullshit, but they don't have the parents to hold them together anymore. So there's really no binding force to hold them together like the kids. Sort of not really, they will not They will not have a relationship. It's just the way it goes. They just can't stand each other. It started off wrong. Bravo did them no favors. It's not Bravo's responsibility, but yeah, yes, yes, yes, yes yes. So it came out that Teresa has tax debt in New Jersey of over one million dollars. Now I have compassion for Teresa, and I feel like Teresa has a bill that she hasn't paid. I do not think that she knowingly didn't pay this bill. I think that she probably doesn't know what's going on with her taxes. I think that she probably doesn't have a great accountant, and I think she doesn't have a million dollars lying around. Teresa is a worker. Teresa's a working mother. Teresa's she does appearances for a couple thousand dollars all around the country. She will take that money, she will do that post, she will do whatever it takes. She's a warrior. She works, and she's probably good for the money. She's just working to get it. I don't think Kim. I don't think Teresa. Where you know, Teresa's wearing fake bags and clothes sometimes and doesn't seem to waste a ton of money. And now her husband spends on her somewhat. I know they said he bought fake Cardier watch bracelets for the kids, and who gives a shit to bed any of it? And whatever. It's embarrassing and horrifying. I think it's horrifying, But who cares? Buy what you want fake or real? Buy your bags, fake, or real who care? Who cares? You know? I mean it's a fronting and stunting thing. And I'm being hypocritical because I have a soft side for Teresa, and Teresa's showing her hair and her wedding and I don't know, maybe I'm wrong. Is Teresa acting rich like Kim Zolziak. I guess so she was paying all the money for the furniture and then got caught. But I don't know. I don't know why I have. I have a saft spot for Teresa because she works her fucking ass off and she went to jail and did her time and came out. But I found not. I can't be a hypocrite. So Teresa does front and stunt a little bit. It's just a different brand of fronting and stunting. Like Kim Zolziak acted like she was really rich, no one ever believed it, but she's kind of acting. Teresa's acting like she's sort of like Jersey New Money, you know, big glossy house that you can probably knock over, like a card house, because the outside looks shiny and perfect, like a nice big whipped cream cake, like Teresa's hair, Like it's like you know it's so like elaborating over the top that I guess because it's funny and humorous, and because I like her, it lands better I Louis. He was very nice. I met him like. I have a soft spot for Teresa, so it's hard for me to talk about her being in debt. But I think she works hard for her money and she probably isn't that smart about that type of business and doesn't know. I don't know. I just I don't bet against Teresa. I think she's not I think she's not a genius, but I don't think she's stupid. I don't know. There's something about Teresa. I just I have a saft spot for her, and people get mad at me when I really when I picked her as a as a Rushmore, and people don't like her, and people don't like me. I don't know. I like Teresa. I don't know what what maybe it said I know Teresa, But do I really know Teresa. I've men met her a couple of times. I don't know. I have a soft spot. I don't know. It's not fair
