The Countess is here and she’s not holding back!

Luann and Bethenny are feuding and the TWOTS get all the tea!
Who blocked who, who unfollowed who, and why?!  This drama is real.

Plus, Luann serves up some major tea on RHONY Legacy.

Two teas in a pod with Teddy Meloncan't and camera Jedge. Are you a little naughty? We're in our pajama today and we're the Grench and naughty and nice. Oh my god, it's so humid in Tampa. I just did my hair and I'm already like a mess. Do you have a show tonight? No? I had a show last night. I sold out the hard rock Casino. Oh congratulations. So just to backtrack, you guys, we have Luanne on and two cheese in a pod. We are so excited. You have been in the press quite a bit. Lun Yeah, that on Instagram surfaced that you had some words to say about your ex castmate who's been talk about being on the naughty list. Man, I saw her and watch What Happens live, I was in disbelief. Disbelief. Okay, just take us back before we can even get to watch what happens? Like, what did you say on your set for anybody that didn't hear it? What do you mean? I'm what? I'm what? Somebody asked you about her doing a podcast or something, and that Greeno. He caught me totally off guard. I loved jetting Greeno, but I had no idea that this was going to coming down the pike. So at first I was like, you gotta be kidding me, you know, because let's face it, you know, she left the show, she trashed the show, said we're boring thing, said you know that um legacy would be boring, etcetera. And you know it's toxic the housewives. And but you saw her immediately get defensive when she was on Watch What Happens Live about it, where this is something you wanted to do. Clearly you have a deal, You're making good money. Why are you so defensive about it? Just laugh, like take a joke, like be like, yeah, you know what, I changed my mind. I'll do about anything for money whatever, And exactly exactly, you know, I thought she was doing so well with all her other businesses, etcetera. You know, how do you feel about Andy Cohen and Jeff Louis having to do an apology to her. I don't know if there was an apology made. I think there was a phone call all where you know, there was miss understanding, maybe, but I don't think there was any need to apologize, nor do I think that that's what happened. Well after Watch What Happens Live. She did multiple Instagram posts about it. TikTok did a sixteen minute podcast like It's I want to talk about it, just keeps promoting her podcast where you know, she gets to talk about these Housewives episode and you know, and and you know, there's no, um, we have no saying, you know, so she can say whatever she wants to say. And at this point I don't really care if she really needs to fall back on the Housewives, let her do it, you know. And how's felling well? You know, I think that I think that, you know, they're still kind of you know, making deals and trying to figure out who exactly is on that cast, and um, but you know, word on the street is that, you know, maybe sometime the spring. So what about your show with Sonia? When is that? When are we saying that, um, that's gonna be out? I think of the spring. I'm not sure exactly when, but soon. I'm so excited about that. And what was it like filming that? Was it completely different than Housewives? Totally different because it's a comedy, you know, it's really like film and Louise meets Laverne and Shirley meets the odd couple kind of like a simple life, like a simple life, you know. It's it's really it's it's it isn't it isn't. It's you know, kind of a more um, I hate to say, like elevated because it's not the same premise. Um. We're actually going into this town to you know, lift these people and help the town out out of you know, um, out of you know what we've all been through in these last years, and try to lift the spirits of the town, lift their businesses. And so we're really there to give the town to pick me up. And so at the same time, we're doing good and we're having fun and making comedy out of it. And listen, you know, we both grew up in small town Sannya and I, so it's not like we don't know what it is to grow up in a small town. Um. But it's just wild to be back in a small town again, you know, and and and hanging out with the locals, and it's it's really, um so much fun. I'm super excited for you guys to see it, for the fans to see it, because it's a total departure from housewives. Um. And you know, Sannya and I have the best time navigating. Um, you know, all fun or is there a little bit of trauma? No, it's really all fun. It's comedy. How nice for once? Right? How long did you guys film? We were there for six weeks, so like in in town for six weeks? Yes, yes, but I gotta say the townspeople were so nice. We made a lot of friends, and you know, hopefully we'll be back, you know, for another season. Speaking of friends, I know, um, you have a relationship with Jill, but you know she kind of screwed Tamera over and there's been some beef. I'm a little bit curious what your current relationship is with Jill. And do you think she is as thirsty as Tamera does? And this is coming from the thirstiest human alive. It's not thirsty, she's hungry. She's starving. She's starving. She'll be the first one to say it. Actually, that's something that Jill said. Do you think I'm thirsty? Said, I'm not thirsty, I'm hungry and start get her. You know, she comes from that background in sales. I mean she's a wire for like I don't know if it's Macy's or Bloomingdale's or one of them. But you know, sales is like her thing, and Joe could sell you anything. I mean, she's unbelievable. And listen, I got to give it to her because you know, she she's hustler ages ago from the show and you know, whatever she can get from that, Listen, Jill brought me on the show to begin with. I mean it was because of Jill's errand that I got on the Housewives in the first place. So you know, it's like when somebody saves your life, you just can't forget that, you know what I mean. She didn't save my life, but but I will stay with your life. But she did say not save mine, but she changed my life feud way. So you know, always be grateful to Jill. And And I think she's the kind of girl that when she's around people she doesn't know, she tends to get a little excited, and maybe that comes off as thirsty, but I think that once you get to know her and spend more time with her, she's really such a loving person. And again, you know, I will agree with that. I will say that she's got a very big heart and she really definitely supports you know, one another, especially as women. Um I did give her a hard time at Provo Con and know we had a text exchange where I said, you know, it's cool whatever, but of course you've got to go there squash the beef in front of everybody. But I know, well, you know it wouldn't be you know, it wouldn't be happens live without it, without it. I know she has some choice word to say about me after that, But I do think she has a very kind heart, very sweet, but she just steps in her own ship and she gets and she talks about things she probably shouldn't and we would never know anything about that. Ladies never been exactly. We're so perfect. But she doesn't have the gift of gab. Let's put it that way. She's she's a sopper. You know, I'm not that kind of girl, you know what I mean. I don't feel like I need to fill every gap in the conversation with words. Uh, Jill, Like I said, you know, you're you were kind of new tor. She doesn't know you that well, so I think she gets a little nervous and excited, and so I think that's part of the issue too. There, So tell us about your tour. Well, I mean, so I started in Chicago. I had one show in Chicago at the Park West Theater and they sold out, and so I added a second show, and then I added a third show, which is fantastic. Chicago is like a big fan base for a Housewives, as you girls know, and it was great to be back in Chicago. I played the Chicago Theater last time I was there, which is like four thousand seats, and I sold that out. So you know, I had a great time in Chicago. Now I just left, um um Atlanta. So all the housewives of some of the Housewives of Atlanta. We saw Cynthia and Pedro and Pedro. Yeah, I love those girls. Cynthia doing she's doing great. You know, she's doing great. You know, she's moved on from the house while she's doing more acting, and she looks really happy. She looks beautiful, and I think that you know, um, you know, I'm actually you know, her marriage is kind of you know ending and whatever, so it's you know, I think it's you know, it's always difficult when um you're closing a door and and she's already starting to open the others. So I'm happy for her. And Padre's always a hoot. That girl, I mean, she is just the salt of the earth. I love her. So we had a great time in Atlanta, and now I'm in Tampa. I just um sold out the hard rock casino and great show last night. And now I'm heading to you girls in Los Angeles to play the l Ray. I'm back at the l A Theater, which is like kind of my second home now, Like I started my cabaret in New York at fifty four below, which is like a smaller venue, more intimate, a lot of fun, you know, velvet and curtains and you know, cabaret and um kind of a supper club ambiance and and the l Ray kind of does that for me in l A. And so it's a great room. So many iconic people have played the l Ray. So I'm in really good company and I'm excited. The shows are, um the fifteen, sixteen, and seventeen. Are you girls coming? I want I'm gonna be out of town. I'm in Palm Springs, but it's one of my very councious Christmas right, I know I have an event, so I oh, well, both you know, I hope you'll make it to one. I'll be back. I'll be back to l A. But I'm really looking forward. I have a lot of a lot of cool people coming, you know, a lot of slebs come to the show. I've had, you know, like land Spass has been on my show. You know, it's been to my show. I've had a lot of great talent in my shows. Now I'm doing one woman's show. But um, but I just love all you know that I get to see all my friends in l A and get to spend some time. I heard it's a little chili. It'll be done raining after today. You guys have to go out and see lun show a very councious Christmas um and videos and send us clips so that we can talk about her on the Housewife headlines. How when did you start your I started my shows in you know, and did you think I have become this successful? You know, listen, I had no idea. The first show that I did was filmed for the Housewives. It was my very first show. I'd come out of the really uh and you know, and and and so I just decided, you know what, I'm gonna do this show, and um, I'm gonna do what I love and do the best I can do, and that's all you can do in life. And it just really worked out for me because I think people can see that. You know, I really enjoy performing and I put on a great show. I worked really hard at it. I have the director of Kristin Chenowith and Barbera streisand he's amazing. Um, so I get to work with really talented people. But you know, Billy Stritch is my musical director and Brian Nash and I got a great team of musicians that travel with me and a great team, and so you know, I have I just have. I have a fun time. It is a party. You girls would absolutely love it because it's really it's kind of a fashion show meets cabaret meets up experience. It's a lot of fun. Yeah, you would you ever do? Like, because you just did the thing with Sonia, there's legacy coming up. Are you starting to feel sad about Ramona or relieved? You know? I got asked about that last night in my cap ratio because I do a Q and A with the audience and we get to talk about housewives, and you know, everyone's I'm like, do you want to see Ramona back? And everybody wants her back. Um, you know, I feel like Ramona is like such a you know, she's an o g. I mean, she's starting a part of the show. She's a big part of the show. I feel I feel like we're gonna see her somehow. I think so too. I don't know, she's completely gone. I you know, I think she makes great television. I think that, um, the fans will miss her and we miss her because you know, she's just gotta She's just Ramona, you know, and all these crazy antics that she and she says she I mean, you know, Gie myself, it's like, I think it'd be so exciting to go back to one of the first casts that were you know, fifteen years ago and re filmed with them. I think it would be really exciting. Well look at you know, look at how well these Ultimate Girls trips worked out, right. I mean, it likes to see you know, the old guard kind of hanging out and doing their thing and having fun. You know. I I think, you know, coming into a new you know, a new show for Rony in New York with a new cast, you know, I think it's gonna be difficult for those ladies because it's always difficult the first season and then you know, people are so used to seeing us, you know, I just know I hope for them that have I have mixed feelings about it. Yeah, tell me what your mixed feelings are. I just I think at this stage in the game Housewife, it's it's really hard for viewers to log on to a new Housewife and get to know new people, and it takes a while to get to know the cast members and people, and it's I mean, I wish they would have named it something totally different because people are going to always be comparing it to the original, right right. I don't know if they're setting themselves up for disappointment or if they have such an amazing cast and it's gonna, you know, be that goes that gonna be on Bravo or Peacock. I don't know. I don't know, but I just feel like you know, and you you guys know this. You know, people know when there's real friendships or not. So I don't know if these girls are really friends or whatever, but I feel like, you know, people can see right through that, and um, and that's what makes our shows work is that you know, we are friends we're both friends. You know, there's history there. Uh and and so you know, I think it's gonna be it's gonna be not so easy to come out of the gate with a new show, but you know, I wish them was because they're gonna need it. Yeah. We recently saw a picture on Instagram with you with your kids and they I was like, oh my god, they're like, how are they and what are they up to? Oh my god, well my daughter. Um, they're both artists, which I love. They're off, you know, they're they beat, they danced to the beat of their own drums, and they are just amazing artists. They are working artists. You know, they're they're commissioned, you know, to do earth art and you know they show at galleries. They are, you know, working artists. And so I couldn't be happier, especially with kids. And during the pandemic, the twenty somethings, you know, my kids weren't going they were like home painting and they were happy with that, you know. So I feel like, um, they're they're just solid. They're good kids. Um and so, and you know, I'm lucky like you girls, You've got great kids and it's you know, it's um, it's uh, it feels really good to have children that are happy doing what they love. You know, they don't want to be on the show. You know. I was just gonna ask you that do they want to be on the show, because what I happened is is my son gets you know, I'll put a picture of him and then they start picking on his mustache. It's like, leave him alone. You know, has pictures of my kids anymore if you're gonna like tear him apart. So I agree. My son's the same way, and he's twenty three years old. He's like, Mom, why so I can be put down and it can hurt my career potentially, he's going to call it and all these things. Yeah, exactly, it's just not you know, it's not their life, it's my life. I mean, they haven't been on the show in ages. I think Victoria was on with me a couple of years ago. I mean, because the show has been off for a while. But they're not they're not looking for the limelight. Those just aren't my kids, and they don't want to gain notice right for their art because of me, you know, And you know, even my son is like you know, you know, and he gets hit up all the time on Instagram and social media, Like last night, I had a girl in my show Goes. Where does Noel live? I'm like, I'm not telling you don't say I like. I happen to like his mustache. He's just he's unique. He's my little Picasso. I just he's adorable and and he's very handsome, and he's very sweet and and my daughter is is great. So I feel very lucky. You know, Noel's in New York, my daughters out in Hampton. She's not a city girl. Uh so they're both doing their thing and they're going to see their father in Switzerland and February to go skiing. What about your dating life, Well, you girls know what it's like. Maybe not um for years now, you know. Listen, I'm dating, but I don't really have anybody that I want to introduce to my kids just yet, that's for sure. I'm just having fun. I'm busy, see, I'm you know, busy with my cabaret shows. Then it's like Christmas and I'm with my kids. Then I'm you know, with some girlfriends for New Year's and um, so it's not top priority. And I feel like you know, those kind of things happen when they have You have like a sex rule, like we need to go on this so many dates it needs to do this amount of time, or it's like you're feeling it, you're going for it. I feel it, and I go for you. I'm married. I married the county after two weeks of knowing him. So that's out pretty well, two kids and seventeen years later. You have to go with your gut instinct. You can't be like all calculated and like, oh you know in fact, I had a date like not too long ago and he goes and he goes, well, come, you don't want to sleep with day said well because we only met like a couple of days ago, and I go, well, maybe tomorrow night. And he goes, what's the difference between tonight tomorrow? And I'm like, you're right, You're like there, I got out. Um okay. I don't like to say kill So if you had to play kiss Mary and Never See Again between Bethany, Ramona and Dorenda kiss Mary and Never See Again? Who were they? Bethany, Ramona and Dorenda are your options? And it was kiss Mary Never See Again? Start with never see again. That's the easiest one to start. I know, you know who you hate. I was kidding, no, listen, uh, you know, it's just been so long. I mean, Bethany totally blocked me from social media. Okay, you know, so it's like, uh, you know, that says everything. It's like she didn't just unfollow you, she blocked you blocked me. You know, no hard feelings there. Uh so you know, yeah, you know, so I guess she doesn't want to see me, so I don't want to see Well, I don't know if you saw what I'm watching Heavens Life. She says she doesn't follow any of her friends on social media, which sounds really yeah, well, you have to have friends follow him, right. Also, if you take somebody, if you take the time to unfollow some it's one thing. If to never follow anybody, you're just like, you're not really on social media. But she's consistently on social media, my god, which I mean even from like the makeup reviews to everything. You're very much on social media. So it's like she she unfollowed me, so I followed her. So that's the answer to that. And then Mary, um, I'm gonna marry Dorinda because she's I want to live in Bluestone Manor and I love her, you do. I don't think tam did. No, I was. It was there, But when you're locked in If I was just there with with Dorinda, it'd probably be great. But when you're locked in there with eight girls, after a while, you're like, get me out of here. Yeah, although they were all lovely, that leaves Ramona last. So what was the last one? Kiss? You're gonna have to make out with the Ramona have you? She loves to kiss, So there you go. That's not a bad deal right there. Well, thank you so much for joining us. We appreciate you. You guys have to get tickets to see lou Anne a very countless Christmas and when you come back on once you start Legacy or once the show was Sonia started, but it will be coming out in the spring, and I'm super excited for you guys to see it. It is laughing excited to see if we cannot wait. And we love you and thank you, thank you for coming back. Bye. Maybe we can meet up for um a little you know, coffee or health or whatever, perfect or whatever sounds good too. Bye bye, Thank you,
