Ah, Housewives. Normally I find them exhausting, but we’re well into summer vacation around here and if my kid asks me what design elements I want in the Minecraft residence he is creating for me ONE MORE TIME I am going to go stark barking boonanas. Meanwhile:
· The biggest recent Housewives news story is that Vicki is being sued by her partner in Vicki’s Vodka, a misguided business undertaking if there ever was one, for fraud over allegations she manipulated their business arrangement to hand a cash windfall to Donn2. The claim is that she gifted part of her 50% interest to Donn2, he then sold it back to her partner for $50K, and then she somehow pressured the partner to re-equalize their 50/50 ownership which basically means she got her gifted chunk back free, Donn got the cash (which he used to pay – surprise! – child support), and the partner (who is a professional poker player) is out of pocket. Now I am no Vicki defender but a lot of this does not add up, except as a violation of their partnership agreement and that’s what happens when you set up shop with a tool. I’ve always been underwhelmed by Vic’s claims to business prowess.
· Also in the OC, Tammy and Eddie are getting married this very weekend. Their marital merger will be featured in a three-episode special airing in a few months, which certainly doesn’t suggest that they are getting their own permanent spinoff, probably because there are no wigs or babies involved.
· In other legal news, two Housewives are having bankruptcy issues (who aren’t, really?). Sonja Morgan is being accused by the film studio to which she owes $7MM of being uncooperative, stalling, and hiding property, and they have gotten a bankruptcy judge to convert her Chapter 7 bankruptcy (which would have allowed her to keep her home) to official Chapter 11 bankruptcy which allows a trustee to force liquidation of ALL her assets. Eeek!
· Also, former OC Housewife Peggy Tanous apparently filed for bankruptcy back in March, claiming at the time to be divorced, and has since revised her filing to say she is single. However, just this weekend I myself saw her Twitting about her anniversary with the charming and rather petite Micah, father of Capri and London, playmates of the McNuggets. The plot thickens.
· And finally, also over the weekend The Glands’ house was broken into and her dog was napped. She is blaming her assistant, who she has since fired via text, and gotten a new dog.
Come on people this is funny. She is a hilarious writer. Every time I read Assy’s name I crack up. And now Vic has peed. I was laughing my assy off and had a hard time stopping. And I was by myself. And she used the word dingus. This just gets better. Keep up the good work. Can’t you write for the Kardashian’s? Please pretty please. No one is doing it.
I’m with you Pammy! Miss Thing is a great talent and the only reason I bother watching the fools. But the Kerdeshiens? That’s below brand and I didn’t think that was even possible.
