***UPDATE*** Shana/Traylor was paid over $100,000 for the “abuse” photo used on ET and NY Post says she’s broke… here.
(Thanks to SH reader “Josy” for the update!!!)
Shana Traylor/Trash will have her big interview tomorrow on Entertainment Tonight. In the meantime, Shana spoke with ET over the weekend…
Regarding Shana’s claim of terrible abuse at the hands of her late husband, Russell Armstrong, let’s view Farrah Fawcett’s police photos…
Now, before anyone goes off on abuse is abuse, no matter how small or how much is visible… here’s the point: the above is a POLICE PHOTO of Farrah Fawcett’s abuse by her then-boyfriend, James Orr. And, I’m not saying that because there is not police report or photo of Shana’s ‘abuse’ that she was not abused. However, it brings to light the fact that Shana apparently let the abuse go on for so long without ANY type of report… from ANYONE, let alone the police.
Here’s a preview of what’s to come on tomorrow’s ET… Shana all boo-hoo’ng. Sorry, just not buyin’ it. Look past the tears and remember that Shana is a professional scammer/con-artist…
Yeah I don’t buy her sob story either she can’t tell the police but she can tell her castmates her friends and everyone else on the planet but the cops really taylor that’s your story real abused women suffer in silence Taylor isn’t doing that
So agree Lisa…she can’t tell a soul until the man can no longer speak for himself. If it turns out that the photo wasn’t from an abusive incident she needs to return that hundred grand…..for myself??…..that’s one minute and fifty seconds I can never get back!
When I read the following description, I immediately thought of Taylor and Russell:
“Antisocial personality disorder is a mental health condition in which a person has a long-term pattern of manipulating, exploiting, or violating the rights of others. This behavior is often criminal.”
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmedhealth/PMH0001919/
Her tears are only meant to garner public sympathy. Unfortunately as both Ms.SH and Diane Dimond (and others) are beginning to uncover her lies, rather than gaining the public’s sympathy she is going to get a backlash. And most importantly, the law is involved, so she should save those tears for when she is sentenced to prison, where she belongs. I only feel sorry for Russel’s children.
We can also add a co-occuring disorder to that list, which would be substance abuse.
YOOOOOOOOOOOOO, Honest girl, I have never made a comment on a computer before. I am a senior and all I wanted to see is OJ go to jail. Got my wish on that one.Now I want to see Taylor go to jail, She is a mean person.I dont know how to correct my spelling that is why I am using simple words.I dont know how she can live with herself.
oj
uh…TOTALLY!!! TY you hit the nail on the head! She disgusts me
Anyone notice the dog barking at the end of the interview? That was the only “real” moment of it all.
She is a chitty chitty chitty mother and I hope Russel’s family uses this interview too get Kennedy the hell away from her. She had to have KNOWN what was hanging there in that room before she ever got into her car to go “look-see” and took Kennedy along for the ride.
What message is she hoping to get out to abused women? If you’re lucky your abuser will off himself and then you can cry and tell your daughter he is in heaven and you wished you both could go visit? Dear Lordy PLEASE save Kennedy from this woman. She is mad.
Having seen that first segment of her “nervous breakdown” I would say you’re right. She comes across as distinctly Sybill–more crazy than Jellybean head for sure.
@Shadow,
I’m watching it now, and that is exactly what I thought too! There is no way Taylor is not on drugs. This is like “Scary Island” part 2, except instead of Kelly, it’s Taylor.
Were Kelly’s eyes glassy? When Adrienne mentioned that her eyes were glassy and then said she thought she was having a breakdown I was wondering if I needed to look up glassy eyes under the description of psychosis. (not really)
Does coke cause glassy eyes? She sure didn’t act like she smoked a doobie.
As I watched her I kept thinking about her “soap opera face” that she did when she dropped in on Lisa & Kyles lunch. She posed for those photos looking up dramatically in the end of the clip too. I will give her this, she’s quite an actress.
Her assistant can be seen saying that she was also with Taylor and Kennedy when Russells body was found–if so, why would Francisco ask Taylor to get her child? How can Taylor remember she was lying in the street hysterically? She said she pulled it together because she had to get her daughter out of there?
Nothing she has done in the last month has made any logical sense to me..
Thank you! If that assistant of hers was there why didn’t she assist Kennedy out of there? Cisco only had to tell her 5 times! (cough, bulls–t)
And if you’re so broke that you are forced to sell the family dirty laundry for cash why do you have an assistant?? She was po before he killed himself.
Don’t nobody mess with a gal’s make up kit!
IT’S BLUE WITH RED FLOWERS! I’M NOT GOING TO LET YOU MAKE ME THE CRAZY ONE!
Bubbies, I think she knew the sh*t was hitting the fan so she’s cashin out while she can.
I agree, the way she’s handled everything since Russell’s death has been totally illogical to a mind that isn’t racked with guilt.
Unfortunately that’s not her mind.
Maybe she’s concerned that people would start to see Russell as the victim instead of her.
She did everything she could in the first season to make him look like the problem in their marriage with her being the innocent victim.
Now It’s like she’s scrambling to make sure that her image is maintained at all costs as the one who should be felt sorry for and she’s doing what she can to keep trying to shape public perception.
She may very well have been abused but the way she’s handling things is disgusting and very suspect. She’s not doing herself or women who are abused any favors and is only exposing herself to question and creating suspicion.
It’s like she saw how mad people were over her treatment of Kim last year and only then did she suck up to Kim (with the cameras rolling). Everything was about her–no one could change the subject without her bringing attention back to herself (and that’s just the part we saw!)
When she said she was sad sleeping in the baby room I was thinking it was a ploy to get moved into the big girls room.
I wonder what she was acting like in the room when she was screaming. I wonder how many of these trip outs she’s had outside of everyone’s prying eyes? The more I see, the more disgusted I am by her. I think it’s as likely that Taylor hurt herself while tripping out as it is that she and Russell had some knock-down drag-out fights. I just don’t know but this isn’t making sense to me.
Imagine going through a horrific event a month ago. Would you be able to talk about it with a stranger in front of a camera, lights, etc. knowing it would be broadcast on TV and watched by millions of strangers. Wouldn’t it be difficult for most to talk about it in detail with a friend or even a therapist this soon? Maybe it is just me.
and yet somehow Traylor finds the “strength” to carry on… and on…and on.. A real trooper that one.
“a real trooper that one” LOL
Yeah she’s got that martyr role down to a science….. well not really because its totally transparent but she gives it the ole college try.
No, it’s not just you! If she had in fact experienced such horrific Domestic violence as she says, then wouldn’t she also have PTSD? The fact that she is able to openly discuss such a traumatic event, so openly, in such a short amount of time, really makes me question the validity of her DV claims. Plus, the fact that she is a liar doesn’t help.
That might be true for anyone other than those few who invite strangers with lights and cameras to record all the BS these people allow to be recorded. At some point that becomes their new “reality” and we can no longer apply “normal” to anything they do. To say it would be difficult for you to do what Traylor is doing is a good thing!!
For her sake I hope that she is not lying about any of this. The abuse pics look like makeup to me but according to the doctor it’s real so who am I to say different
Why hasn’t any of her doctors talked to ET? Why was a random doctor given photocopies of a CT scan and asked how it could have happened? ET asks leading questions–what if they asked the doctor if she could have gotten her injury hitting the corner of a wall or a kitchen cabinet??
Shadow: She told the medical personnel that she got her injury because Kennedy accidentally kicked her in the eye. TFC!! SH
dang. Like Dr Paul’s broken nose? lol
well… of course MP! They are Kennedy’s Godparents after all so I’m sure she was over there on a play date and it really wasn’t one of the Adrian/Paul clan.
lol. or or or all the little BH kids take lessons from the same sensei.
“history repeats itself. try and you’ll succeed!” found these lyrics perfectly ironic haha
AHHHHHHHHH!!!! I’m sorry but this man is dead, if you wanted to rake him thru the coals you should’ve done that a lonnnnnnnnng time ago. THE MAN IS DEAD. this is despicable….disgusting….Im so f’ing piss*ed right now…..how could she do this to his kids??? I’m just so speechless.
At this point, anyone who participates in Taylor’s entanglements is just as guilty as she is. I agree wholeheartedly. The man is dead. Let him rest in peace and leave his innocent children alone. He’s not here to defend himself.
Well I’m just going to wait to see what Jeana Keogh has to say on this before I make a judgment… Clearly she’s the ahthoratay on all things HW
Sh—thank you for making the point about Farrah. Every time they bring up Farah or Nicole Brown it makes me sick. She really is taking DV awareness back 30 years.
Nice head shot/eye closeup of Russell–as if Taylor were dead in a homicide/suicide.
Taylor isn’t on any of the shows booked for the RHONY press junket. Wonder why she’s not involved in any of the promotional interviews but can do one for money? I can’t imagine Bravo is ok with that. Maybe just maybe Bravo is running fast and running far from Taylor ?? We can only hope!
What is interesting to me is this DR ET had on declared this injury to be the result of abuse Yet the drs who treated Taylor couldn’t tell this was not from the foot of a child These are people who are trained to see suspicious injuries despite what a patient tells them Yet they took her word for it and this random DR see’s abuse. A Dr that is no doubt being paid BY ET\
where these catscan/xrays come from Hospitals don’t generally give them to patients yet Taylor has then again WHY?
Plus Taylor was seeing someone at the time of Russell’s death how many “abused” women jump into a relationship while the bruises are still healing. Not any abused woman knew.
Something isnt right about all this
Good point. Did she put out the vibe, bruised eye and all and pick up Mr Malibu? I don’t think so!
Well, since her abuser is dead, I don’t suppose Taylor can blame him if she takes a drunken fall…
Her new guy will probably end up being an abuser as well, so she can blame him.
She’s too much of a mess to attract/be attracted to anyone remotely healthy.
Or new gal
IT TAKES TWO, Haters.
Your watching how two people dealt with fame and money. How good at it would you be if you weren’t sitting on the sofa and millions of piranha’s like you where watching and judging “your” solution’s or not…..They both obviously, didn’t have the skill’s, and you learned (at their great expense) what didn’t work by being privy to this tragedy. Where’s your humanity? God forbid any of you where judged by your choice’s. Justification alone, doesn’t make it right.
We all have issues and are judged by the choices we make, however we (commenters) did not decide to be on reality tv and air all our problems to the world. The RHW put themselves in the public eye so we can laugh, judge and criticize all we want. It’s not like we’re all gathering up the pitchforks and heading out to BH to crucify Tralyor. They’re just words and if they didn’t want the attention, they shouldn’t have signed the dang Bravo contract.
Maddy, my “humanity” is safely tucked away right beside my give a damn bone which I only wear for special occasions.
I tried searching through the posts, but I didn’t see any reference to it and if I missed it, I’m sorry. Russell’s attorney is also calling BS on Taylor’s claims. TMZ has the story.
Here’s the link, not sure if you have to copy/paste or click.

Alot of comments on that story seem to be the same as here. Alot of people are not believing her…not quite the way she thought it would go, I’m sure. That woman loooooooooooves to play the victim. Last night’s episode showcased that perfectly. I cannot stand her.
Even if all of what she says IS true, I still couldn’t stand her.
I don’t like it when people cry ‘poor me poor me poor me’ over and over again, expect everyone to feel sorry for them, but they never do anything to better their lot in life.
Yeah . I am thinking that Bravo told Russel’s family “Dont worry, we got this” as they reedited to show the true Traylor.
You don’t think it was already edited to show the true Traylor? Seems like they had a lot of ammo against her… Or seems like a huge task to paint her in a likable light. I agree with Nikki. She cried wolf way too many times.
I dont know how it was edited prior to Russel’s death but they went out of their way last year to make him look like the ass (prolly wasnt hard he may have in fact been an ass) All her crazed curling up in suitcases(prolly looking for her drugs that paranoia had her convinced one of the other girls hide .) and the others just ringin their hands with “worry” about her “mental stability” was prolly already “in the can” as they say to show how crazy Russel made her(o poor Traylor) but now it can be shown for what it truly was… Traylor ruining a vacation.. ruining her husband… and now ruining her daughter. This woman is without ANY redeeming qualities in my book.
Sorry, MP. Wasn’t trying to come off combative… I’m in a mood, I guess. I re-read my comment and it sounded sorta bishy. Your comment just made me wonder what they actually edited… Thanks! Mwah!
Awwww. I didnt take it as bishy. Honestly the only thing that is interesting me about BH at the moment is watching for the re-edits. See I think Kim was going to be the seasons ONLY drug addict originally- so I dont think Dr. Paul’s reaction to Kim’s rambling phone convo was a reedit- but after Russel’s death Bravo realized that they had a ready-made re-edit served up to them on a silver platter.
Perhaps! What the what tho? Kim really thought she could finish a second season without any skeletons peepin’ outta her closet?! Puh-leeze!
Well she prolly really thought she sounded fine in that phone call. Not self-aware enough to know how she is coming across. Mauricio’s lingering bitterness suprised me if it is just based on that one little statement that we got to hear. I am thinking there was MUCH more to that then we got to hear.
Remember when Kim was “sick” in the room last ep. and Traylor went in the “check on her?” That was nothing more than a junkie vulture looking to swipe someones stash.
Thank you re the mauricio thing! That bugged the bahjeebers outta me. What was the point of showing an old clip that seemed to have nothing to do with what they were talking about. Kyle barely mentioned Mauricio helping her. I thought it was super odd. Oopsy! I keep trying to wait until a recap post or something to comment. Oh well!
Ya I’m all filled up on Traylor. WTH is up with having her in every flippin scene? Someone needs to go shopping and quick. But not Traylor! Show me Mo without a shirt while moving furniture, but Traylor’s whiny azz better not be there…
Hello All, I feel like I’ve missed so much. Been gone all day working with my sissy and I am dead tired.
Hey click. Kick yo shoes off, grab a cat, a bottle of pinogreesio and relax!
Howdy Click! Glad you’re back amongst us!
Hey, I thought of something about Traylor today…you know those diet pills she was taking, right? Well, pretty much speed….AND didnt she work for a pharmac company before meeting Russell? I wonder if she has any “contacts” in that world anymore?
Call me bored but I sent Ms SH 2 emails last week with tons of photos of Traylor in June & July out and about since the day she said it happened was in question…since I called bull sh*t on the timeline….it doesnt match up with her facebook account and all the publicity appearances she did in June & July…..So, if it doesnt line up, I’m sure Ms SH has Traylor’s number.
Let me rephrase….I was not bored emailing Ms SH…I was bored and called bs on traylor so started looking up photos in June & July….
