REAL HOUSEWIVES OF BEVERLY HILLS: CASTING FOR SEASON THREE… LEANN RIMES, LINDA THOMPSON JOINING CAST…HMMMMM… WHICH RHOBH WILL NOT BE BACK….

POSTED FEBRUARY 2, 2012  10:04 pm

LeAnn Rimes… walking behind Brandi Glanville and Jennifer Geminez

Andy Cohen has sworn to Kathie Lee and Hoda that there will be no recasting of the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills…

… but EVERYBODY KNOWS (said like Phaedra Parks) that Miss Andy can’t say anything about anything right now.

Despite the Lord of the Housewives protests, there WILL be cast changes.  According to the National Enquirer, this is what’s going on:

Lisa VanderPump will NOT be getting her spinoff series, Brandi Glanville may have to work side by side with her archenemy LeAnn Rimes, and Elvis’ former gal­palLinda Thompson could be joining the cast, reveal sources.

Lisa’s relationship with“RHOBH” is up in the air after her bid for her own spinoff series reportedly fell flat and now her future with the show is in jeopardy.

Photo taken before RHOBH season one premiere…

Sources say producers have askedElvis Presley’ for­mer girlfriendLinda Thompson, 61, to join the cast, as well as 29-year-old LeAnn Rimes.

NOTE:  I’m givin’ the side eye to this info.  

Camille Grammer will not sign on for another season.   Camille’s main reason for doing season two was to rehabilitate her status as “most hated” housewife on season one of the RHOBH.  Mission accomplished.  Camille has no reason to put herself through another season.  Camille will be gone.

It goes without saying that Shana will not be back.  She is a huge liability to Bravo.  Shana will be gone.

“Friend” of the RHOBH, Dana Wilkey, is also a liability.  PamDana is not the “luxury” girl as her character displays on the show.  Bravo now has stricter requirements for their Housewives and PamDana will not pass the new questions that are asked of anyone being considered to join any of the Housewives franchises.  And, PamDana is a friend of Shana.  PamDana Wilkey will be gone.

Kyle Richards will be back.  Kyle was the key cast member in the original casting process.

Kim Richards will be back.  Kim now has a storyline and she could use the Bravo paycheck.  If there are reports now of Kim not returning… don’t worry, Kyle will talk Kim into doing one more season.  

Adrienne Maloof is questionable… as is Lisa Vanderpump.  IMO, neither has a strong interest in returning and why should they?  Adrienne has called attention to her businesses and her husband’s practice (if people didn’t know him before RHOBH, they do now)… Adrienne has three young children that she enjoys.  What would be in it for Adrienne to return?

Lisa Vanderpump’s participation in the RHOBH has made her restaurants a tourist attraction.  Lisa’s “spin-off” is a no-go.  However, Lisa is a very smart woman…Lisa and Ken made their millions by building sales in their London establishments and selling for huge profits.  Lisa has accomplished increasing sales in both Villa Blanca  and SUR… time to sell!  Lisa really has no storyline for another season on the RHOBH.  Lisa will not return.

The potential NEW cast members will be discussed in a future post…

About Stoopid Housewives

The Real Housewives franchises have become a guilty pleasure for me and I've become intrigued by 'normal' people who would agree to put their lives on television for public display and scrutiny. What are their motives to divulge their daily routines for viewing audiences to approve, reprimand, berate, castigate, attack; basically abuse and judge? Oh, just forget about the above nonsense... the majority of these people are just stoo-pid.

    I will miss the Gigster…your breakdown makes a whole lotta sense Ms SH. Bravo is truly despicable if Leanne is cast. Pitting these women purposely against each other is like a reality modern day gladiator show. Don’t know if I would watch…that’s just too much!! :(

    • CJ Radar says:

      Totally agree missingreality! Andy Cohen tries to pretend to be a nice guy, but he’s a passive/aggressive trouble maker. While I can’t stand Taylor – Bravo and Andy used that family and will be kicking them to the curb. Same thing with Kim. I don’t care for her either, but they’ll use her potential “recovery” as a story line. With Kyle crying over Kim all season. Nothing would make Andy happier than another tragedy.

  2. willywonka00 says:

    Linda Thompson? What’s she going to do, talk about the butterflies flying over the ocean long after we’re all gone? Snooze.

    Leann Rimes? Big mistake! Bravo are you listening to me? I don’t want to see that on my TV.

    If Lisa leaves then they need to bring someone in who will be on Brandi’s side. If it’s going to be a big Brandi pile up then I don’t want to watch it. I never watched Sober House so I all I know of her is what I’ve seen on RHOBH, but what about Brandi’s friend Jennifer? Might go with the Kim storyline and I would love to see her (and Brandi) help Kim stay sober and learn to stand up to Kyle.

    Shana and Pam need to be gone!

    Camille and Adrienne could go either way for me. I don’t have strong feelings about either one of them.

    • lucy says:

      Jennifer is a huge snore and a drama queen. She had no business pretending to be a drug counselor on Sober Hpuse. She was constantly instigating arguments with clients or trying to wield her power by demanding they follow petty rules. Except for Michael Lohan who she was enamored with and constantly babied . The woman is beyond annoying.

    • angrierolderman says:

      I loved Linda’s ocean comment! It was completely out of left field, totally out of place and was completely irrelevant. Put that New Age stuff in a room with Kyle and Kim and let them instigate a fight and mock her. I’m tuning in!

  3. Bravo! says:

    You have GOT to be kidding me?! Kyle, Kim and…Leann?? Sounds like a winner of a show to me (snark!!).

  4. cali girl says:

    Kyle”s reunion blog is up but not in Bravos is in her webpage.

    • highway says:

      Cause she’s afraid of all the backlash she’d get

      • CJ Radar says:

        Right you are highway (they finally put it up this afternoon) I doubt Bravo will post all of her “hate mail.” They’ll sift through the comments to find something positive about her delusional blog. Several of us submitted post stating exactly what we thought, but nothing has appeared in the comment section. Andy will protect Kyle. She is just like him.

  5. sd says:

    ack! LeAnn, if that happens Bravo really has sunk so low and LeAnn what kind of crazy nut job are you ? LEAVE BRANDI ALONE!!!

    this is so sick but I would totally watch and I agree about Linda she is so annoying

    • gessie says:

      I think Brandi should Leave Leann alone. She insults her every week. Like clockwork.
      I think underneath that “I don’t care” attitude is a person that is wasting her time with bitterness and needs to move on. Then she would be the total package. She did a little dance when Eddie’s show got canceled and she called him a C List actor on national t.v. amongst other things. She wants him to fail. Not mature or in her own best interests. She had to host a party at someone else’s house because hers isn’t up to RHOBH standards. So one could ask how in the hell did they pick her?

      Isn’t there supposed to be some pretense that these women are friends or at least know each other? Remember Adrienne’s weak explanation that she knew Taylor because they went to school together? How would a country singer fit into that exactly? I don’t think it would happen in a million years. Besides, they have never used a celebrity before. All the Leann Rhimes haters can rest assured, it would never happen. Somebody is just creating drama.

      • meowalert says:

        Haven’t seen every episode but have NEVER seen/heard Brandi bring up or mention LeAnn. I have repeatedly seen her questioned about Leann and she has side stepped, or appeared very careful to edit her comments. On AndyPandy’s show she flat out refused to address a very stooopid question about Leann. Be real, who wouldn’t be bitter? If Leann and Brandi agree to be in the same t.v. show then obviously all things really are for sale.

        • gail says:

          LeAnne is the one that copies everything about Brandi, claims her boys as her own and has Brandi’s life a living hell. Eddie will cheat on her too, he cheated with not just LeAnn when he was married to her.

        • CJ Radar says:

          Meowalert, new to this site, but had to say I LOVE your screen name. Also agree with your comment.

      • polk8dot says:

        @ ‘Adrienne’s weak explanation that she knew Taylor because they went to school together’.
        Not a big deal, but to be factually accurate, their KIDS went to the same school, not they. :)

        I don’t think anyone believes those contrived Bravo explanations for how the ladies are acquainted and how often they hang out together, in real life. They used the same idiotic ‘oh, Adrienne knows her’ about Brandi, without ever actually explaining in depth how they know each other. Probably because Ad REALLY was, and ever wanted to be, as friendly with Brandi as I am or ever want to be friends with Nene.
        I guess they just choose the ‘lady’ whose personality might be the most compatible with the newbie’s, because can you imagine if they tried to introduce Brandi initially as Vyle’s friend??? Hahahah…

        • gail says:

          It’s a good thing they introduced Dana as Taylor’s friend, I doubt if any of the others wanted to be associated with her.

      • belladee says:

        Nooooo Gessie! I thought we were on the same page! Leeann is a home wrecking slut pig! Oh Gessie, I think our cyber frendship is in big trouble now! (JK, still love ya girl!)

  6. Chubbette Dana – who cares? Traylor – please – just go! – Adrienne – made a fool of herself sticking up for the hired help over her “friend” Lisa – so just go, Adrienne – Kyle and Kim – the co-dependent and cuckoo twins – I hate this tag team – Camille – she was good – Brandi – quite crass – one wisecrack away from a defamation lawsuit from another Housewife – Lisa – entertaining but enough of lowering herself – just go. Linda Thompson? About time they brought on board some Beverly Hills Baby Boomers!

  7. Observer2 says:

    Oooooo, Linda Thompson – won’t Kris (Kardashian) Jenner be jealous!!!

    • RomoSheDiNT says:

      You know it! :-)

    • sd says:

      I wonder how much it would cost Bravo to get Linda to deliver Taylor’s pink slip and say “Taylor has left the building” now that would be worth watching!

      • RomoSheDiNT says:

        Lol and give Taylor one of her Linda-isms, “Taylor, life is so short…time for you to be free with the birds and spread your wings. Nobody wants you on the show anymore and btw we aren’t friends anymore either.”

  8. TangyOrange says:

    I want Brandi to stay. Bringing in LeAnn would be absolutely terrible for the children involved in that dynamic. Even Bravo would not be that heartless, would they?

    • lizzie/stevie says:

      After turning Russell into a wife beater for his 3 children, are you kidding me? I agree that Brandi add a fun spice to the show and I see the conflicts between her and Kyle ramping up. LeAnn would just add a hysteria to the situation not entertainment.

    • belladee says:

      Of course they would! Bringing in Leeann, would make their ratings go through the roof! Look at Bravo bringing a nobody like Melissa, who begged Bravo and promised to ruin Teresa. The ratings were better than ever, but for me I was disgusted watching that family fall apart before our eyes. Bravo caused Russell’s suicide and doesn’t care that they will be the cause of Papa Gorga’s health going down hill and dying of a broken heart. Now they want to ruin Brandi’s kids? I hope LeeAnn is smart enough to say no, but it’s apparent she is an attention Whore!

  9. LeAnn Rimes? Here I thought Bravo couldn’t sink any lower.

  10. mythunker says:

    Hasn’t the LeAnn rumor been around a while??

    • RomoSheDiNT says:

      If LeAnn does get on the show; does she still tweet the bikini pix so Brandi can see her bod? Stoopid when they’re standing in the room together at the same parties. End of Bikini War!

      • mythunker says:

        The end of that war isn’t worth the price of her admission on RHBH!

        • RomoSheDiNT says:

          Oh no way! I was just curious…
          Cohen is a punk if he lets her in. LeAnn is also a punk.

          • DebWeb says:

            Ohhh pooh chit! I didnt think this was actually true…I hope it isnt! Why in the He*^ would he let her & her on the same show? Bad bad ” Le A Cohen is going to be browned”lol ;) :)

    • gail says:

      Yes MT it has, and if it comes to be, I won’t watch, I would rather see Taylor on another season IF she gets what she deserves and that would be outing her for her lies and scams.

  11. heather says:

    In trie bravo fashion I wouldn’t be surprised if one of Kandi’s ex-band mates join them on RHOA

  12. GB says:

    I think Brandi has enough problems without throwing LeAnne Rimes into the mix. I would totally not watch anymore if she’s in. The woman seems to have a persecution complex. Leave Brandi alone already.

    • packing_Pink_heat says:

      I know right? Its all over the internet talking about her getting her fans and herself to mean tweet poor Brandi. People can say what they like about her language, but she’s an honest woman and doesn’t deserve to be treated that way for the public to see.

      Can you imagine the things that LeeAnne says to Brandi’s children about their own mother while they are visiting there?? She should go back to court and show a judge her twitter account so they won’t have to be subjected to this evil excuse for a woman. LeeAnne Rimes has the maturity of a third grader! Absoultely classless!

  13. Ucanleadahorticulturebut says:

    One of the women fom kandis group is Tameka “Tiny” Harris, wife of Tip Harris. Her husband & she have their show on VH1 called T.I. & Tiny – The Family Hustle. I’m not sure where the other woman(women) are. I think there were three women in Kandi’s group, right?

  14. packing_Pink_heat says:

    OMG….Attn Ms SH……My hubby came into the living room and said that they announced on television that there would be no more real housewives of beverly hills!!! Please say it isn’t so???

    If LeeAnne Rymes or Rimes….whatever her name is….is on the show…..they may as well cancel……this lady won’t be watchin’ her husband stealing gradeschool mannered ass.

  15. Sheridan says:

    Oh, no! Not Linda Thompson! She’s Traylor’s friend, and I can’t stomach anyone who’s friends with that monster we call human. Lisa better not go! I love love LOVE Lisa, and Brandi! Brandi should stay, and have a good friend join her. I wouldn’t want to see Brandi getting ganged up on because she’s funny, and brings some laughter and excitement on this show. CAN’T STAND TRAYLOR TRASH & VILE KYLE! They need to go! They are both vindictive and absolutely disgusting! No respect. They always blame everyone else but themselves, and I don’t think I can watch another season with Traylor & Kyle yappin’ every chance they get. So annoying! I can picture them being two-faced to Lisa & Brandi now… UGH!

    I really hope they bring in some classy women, not TRASH like some of these classless women. LeAnn Rimes wouldn’t be good. Could LeAnn copying Brandi be any more obvious? I hope a really sexy model joins so Kyle and everyone would be very intimidated. HAHAHA! Well, not Brandi or Lisa because they’re confident women. Same goes for Camille! LOVE HER! I hope she returns, but idk if she’d want to. PLEASE COME BACK, Camille!

  16. Tuzentswurth says:

    I would NOT watch if Leann Rimes was brought on the show simply to rub salt into Brandi’s wounds. IDK, maybe some ppl would want to watch this? Destruction of families, bum loser husbands, and hurt children don’t entertain me at all.

  17. Bravo: please don’ t make me look at another puffed up face like Linda’s. Though it does make for easy weight loss since I can’t eat for days after viewing it. And why put Leann on? She mimicks Brandi so it will just be a double Brandi except the real Brandi is talented.

    You do, however, have my permission to put on Faye Resnick. And how about that weird psychic Allison DuBois so we have someone to hate?

  18. CJ Radar says:

    I can’t imagine that Adrienne won’t want to come back and try to redeem herself ala Camille. Kim is boring and has shown herself to be as big a witch and mean girl as her sister. Leann is first class trailer trash just like Shauna aka Taylor. Kyle will return – she’s got her nose stuck up Andy’s arsh and can’t get it loose. Every woman remembers a girl like Kyle from Jr or Sr High. A mean, nasty, vindictive, trouble making B!

  19. Buck Henry says:

    I think it will be cool to see Leann Rhimes on the show with Brandi, but at the same time it will also be WW4 for the whole show. Brandi despises Leann Rhimes and her ex, having to see her in close quarters over and over and also possibly seeing her ex with Leann will get her crazy. For her to insult her ex at every turn, she still has issues. And besides maybe Leann needs the show, one for more exposure and two to shutup Brandi.

  20. loraina5050 says:

    I don’t think they will bring in Leann to the mix. And I don’t think they will bring in Jennifer (Brandi’s friend) either because she is, as someone else said, a big snore! I watched her on Sober House and she can’t put a good sentence together. About sobriety anyway.

    And…Linda? Maybe…just cuz she is Elvis’s X.

  21. Mary says:

    Bringing in Leeann Rimes would be like bringing in Kelsey Grammar’s new wife(prego with twins, no less)….that is dirty pool…and if Bravo does that, I’m done……Taylor needs to stay home and focus on Kennedy, Kim needs to focus on sobriety. Kyle has a stake in the show and she’s not going to leave because she’s FINALLY in the spotlight and people recognize her. I’m sure we will be seeing alot more of Farrah this season(more $$ for Kyle?). Adrienne should cut her losses right now and walk away. Camille did and it was a smart move. They don’t need the money. We need to see Lisa retaliate on Kyle for the snubs and comments she made and let Brandi be Lisa’s BFF…..because we know that Kyle hates Brandi andit will KILL Kyle to lose Lisa to Brandi…..and bye-bye Dana(almost forgot her since she’s irrelevant). I would say YES to Faye Resnick but she will be Kyles ALLY to the end so that will just give Kyle more power.

    • gail says:

      I agree about the leeann thing. Kyle however will use the friendship of Brandi and Lisa to accuse her that : Lisa couldn’t handle the “truth’ that was told about her from her and Adrienne and Taylor. To Kyle, Lisa will be being spiteful, just like she was about her trying to wriggle out of Lisa preying on the weak.

      I think Kyle should be made to stand alone for the next season and find out what it is like for her to find out what it is REALLY like for nobody to have your back, as she is so fond of saying, just like Kim had to do for two seasons.

  22. lurknomore says:

    I wonder how many time Bravo begged Faye Resnick to be a part of the show …

  23. belladee says:

    LeeAnn is insecure and immature. She took Eddie away from Brandi and broke up her family, yet LeeAnn attacks Brandi like she was the other woman. LeeAnn knew Eddie was married when she persued him! What kind of person does that? What kind of sane woman marries a man who cheats on you, his mistress, with another girl and than gets all mad because you got cheated on? LeeAnn is more Cray-Cray and unstable than Kelly Bensimon! If my husband cheated on me and I was stupid enough to forgive him, then he leaves me for the same home-wrecking stalker whore, you better believe I am going after that b*tch! How humiliating for Brandi! Brandi acted better than I would! LeeAnn is a lot like MeGo.

      • belladee says:

        MT, I just got back on here from a couple of nights ago when we last wrote. I read the link you posting explaining what was going on and went to bed and hadn’t been on since now. I had been meaning to get back on to respond to you, but My son has been a terror bc more teeth coming in. Anyway, I think you are great and so nice and friendly! Don’t let people get to you! Sometimes when communicating over the computer, people come across different than they mean to and maybe she didn’t mean any harm? I remember trying to joke with clickclick/my cat and she got mad and thought I was making fun but I was just trying to be funny. Anything new with the situation? Still catching up and too many comments and posts to read, so if I can get an update that would be great!

        • mythunker says:

          Well there Bella, kids can be quite the lovely handful, can’t they? Nothing interesting on this end after my temper tantrum.
          I fully agree with you re the interpretations of text via computer dialogue. It can be difficult to interpret the meaning of text. All is good! Been drama free for a while. I am happy here at SH and am glad to still be around. I assure you I will not be a drama queen in the future.
          Thank you for your response. And isn’t LeAnn quite the B word?

          • belladee says:

            I went back and re-read again to refresh my memory. I hope you still aren’t thinking of leaving b/c you are one of my favs! At times people that don’t agree with me reply a bit offensive and I brush it off and pay dumb pretending I didn’t get they are being insulting. Unless it is a poster that comes out of no way who I believe to be a HW or family member of one, then I go all Jersey on the skanks! I am set in my opinions and think having different opinions and respectfully arguing our points are the point of these sites. Even though I am always the right one ;-) . As for the SH post, who are the haters against Ms.SH on twitter? I just joined twitter a couple of weeks ago, but lurking since May, but havent been on much.

            • mythunker says:

              Oy. Not worth it to get into that whole twitter mess but try a search on SH and you may find what you’re looking for.
              Thank you for the compliment. Really! I love reading your comments as well! :) I know we both have our own favorite franchise that is mostly determined by geography, right?
              Again, I am very happy here at SH! I was acting a fool.
              And yes, I love that we can disagree about housewives respectfully but still know in our hearts that everyone that does disagree with us is a skank of the highest order! (IBS) ;)

              • belladee says:

                LMAO! What does IBS mean? I am sure it’s not the tummy problem..lol! Jersey is def my favorite because I am a Jersey girl and can totally relate. I watch all the HWs and read all the posts on here (I am so behind right now!) but mostly comment on Jersey. Which is your fav franchise? BTW, I am super sensitive in Real life and have been known as a one strike and your out kind of person.

              • mythunker says:

                Hah. Well, I think you are sweet on here. :)
                IBS – I’m being sarcastic!
                Atlanta gives me a mad case of the chuckles and Beverly Hills used to be my favorite (geographically close), but for obvious reasons, my love is waning.
