THE REAL HOUSEWIVES DRAMA CONTINUES

Me and my friends are going through a Real Housewives fest. At the start of the year it was New York which has then led to New Jersey and now DC, catching up on previous seasons of Atlanta and in October the new Atlanta one starts.

It can appear a bit staged at times and some Housewives are so contradictory but it's totally fascinating how the TV execs manage to make a drama appear and build out of really nothing. The dramatic build up, split screens and glaring looks all make it unmissable viewing. The good thing about these shows is that they are filmed months in advance and then a few weeks before airing, they film the reunion episodes which are my favourite. The only time that everything is confronted and some housewives lie through their silicone tits. The host Andy Cohen doesn't hold back and neither do the housewives as it's their chance to confront. The housewives are all a bit nuts and desperate for attention but that kind of makes them all watchable.

New York is my favourite show as these bitches argue and don't apologise for pulling punches. Bethenny calls a spade a spade and is the most relatable wife with her quick one liners and always looking for love. Jill was nice but has become fame hungry. Ramona has bizarre crazy eyes and Kelly is just off the wall nuts. They are back for a 4th season next year without Bethenny who is doing her own show on Bravo.

Atlanta has Kim who says she's thirty but is possibly 46 she's the token white chick in Atlanta who is friends with Nene who is GHETTO. In fact all the wives are ghetto Nene would start a fight with anyone and pull wigs and weaves. She swears like a trooper and I love her. Sheree is a bit bitchy and aloof and Kandi's ex husband got murdered so it's kind of real life but also heightened reality with their reactions.

New Jersey has the infamous Danielle PROSTITUTION WHORE. A real nutty wife who changed her identity, was a stripper, apparently was involved in a drug cartel and is full on shady. I hate Teresa, she's a poor fraud who has so much debt, she makes Monte Carlo look poor. Caroline is as thick as thieves around the waist and bores me.

DC has kicked off and although it's supposed to be about White House gatecrasher Michaele Salahi, I adore British bitch Cat Ommanney who was accused of being racist then denied it calling a black man "coloured" she has said in interviews that she can't stand Michaele..... the drama unfolds.

As you can see I'm kinda obsessed - I sometimes think I'm in the Real Housewives of Glasgow with my friends - we wear nice clothes and bitch but still get together for parties and have a great time with a little less surgery and a little more class!
