I’m beginning to totally despise Lord of the Housewives, Miss Andy Cohen.
Last night’s guests in lil Andy’s WWHL clubhouse were solidly gay chef, “Cat” Cora…sorry, but the nickname “Cat” is ridiculous… and the Real Housewives of Orange County’s Alexis Bellino.
Alexis Bellino… “Look, Andy… a side pony, just for you!”
Alexass is another Housewife who is in over her head… another Housewife who, if not for landing a coveted spot on the Bravo OC franchise would be in her bikini, clomping around the pool in heels, pushing a double stroller and making sure that the stroller with the strapped-in kids doesn’t accidentally land in the deep end of the pool… another Housewife who’s not too bright… another Housewife who falls into the Tree Joodice/Nene Leakes category.
Teresa Giudice… “I know I’m dumb…”
Alexass is dumb… just like Tree and Nene. Yes, Alexass is the “NeneLeakes of Orange County”!
Nene Leakes… “I’m rich… I’m rich… I’m rich…”
And… just like Tree and Nene, Alexass tries… tries to work hard, tries to prove herself, tries to press her brain cells as hard as she can to produce a solitary thought. Alexass simply doesn’t know any better… Alexass believes that being rich is having lots of cars; and big jewelry; and lots and lots of labels; and living in a much bigger than anyone needs house in Orange County.
Alexis Bellino’s house…
Alexass, like her NJ and ATL counterparts, would be pretty easy to take down in any mind game and/or logical conversation and/or debate. If Alexass were in negotiations with Lisa Lampanelli, as Tree was on the last episode of Celebrity Apprentice, Alexass would have folded without a word spoken. LL would have just looked at Alexass and LL’s team would have had ALL the models, none left for the other team… the next scene would be watching Alexass as she calls Jimbo on her cell phone begging him to book her a cab to escape further TrumpTorture. As mentioned, it takes all the strength Alexass has to make those scarce brain cells work… and Jimbo probably told her that everyone in NYC “books” cabs.
Alexass might need an intelligence infusion, but Alexass is not mean spirited… Alexass just doesn’t know any better. Alexass relies on her fount of knowledge, Jimbo, to tell her what’s right, what’s wrong, what’s in and out, and what’s up and down. After all, she did come from Jimbo’s rib and Jimbo’s da boss…
Alexass made her views on being gay and same-sex marriage known during last season’s Real Housewives of Orange County… and she should be applauded for stating her views! There are many people who have taken up the “gay” cause because it’s the PC thing to do… and, of course, if you’re working on the DandyGayAndy Bravo network, it’s required that you agree with all things gay. Why? Because Andy says so…
What happens if you’re involved in a Bravo show and you DO NOT agree with all things Andy gay??? You are a guest on WWHL, just as Alexass was last night, and Miss Andy makes sure that you squirm a lot. Miss Andy will require that you are a guest in his clubhouse and will devilishly delight in your being uncomfortable as he plays games with you. Yes, you can put on a good show by being a courteous guest and even try to placate Miss Andy by wearing his favorite, the side pony, as you’re shown photos of “Cat” Cora being pregnant at the same time as her “wife”… and you can try to laugh during the 22-minutes of planned humiliation, which includes Miss Andy mentioning “Jesus Barbie” several times. Poor Alexass…
Alexis and Jimbo Bellino…
NOTE: Miss Andy just made a big deal outta the POTUS making a vague statement about gay marriage. The POTUS can make statements all he wants… nothing will change until laws are passed in each state.
Andy, you as dumb as the Housewives who are making you rich. For Andy to think that because the POTUS says something and that makes it happen, I say: Andy youz a dumbazz.
No one is laughing with you Miss Andy… we’re all laughing AT you.
I hav e frequently wondered how all the practicing Catholics on Rhonj justify their collective stance on gay marriage. I think they worship at the alter in Andy’s clubhouse. Or else.
Catholics (I am one) are all self-hating. We aren’t the hatemongers. Take a look at the evangelicals who want to “pray away the gay”. I can’t speak for priest abuse scandals, however.
Caroline has a gay brother, so that explains her stance.
Sandi: And, we’re all gonna watch DonCaro’s gay brother get married on the RHONJ…right after the Joodices get themselves a huge marriage renewal ceremony… WOO-HOO! TFC!! SH
Dime to a donut Bravo pulls out the old footage of Juicy saying the ball room dancing was “so gay” to spice in amongst the merriment. And there will be ZERO camera Jamie discussing DonCaro’s initial reaction when he came outa the closet. I ‘spect it was none too supportive. Of coarse this was in her pre-Bravo days and “people change.”
All that “ignoring” any other gay slur by any other cast members by ms andy is very “telling”. Either he is really offended or is selectively offended ( I believe the latter) by gay slurs. It’s ok when the same chit is said by two other straight guys on the show.. BUT damm if it comes from the husband of a “real girl” who almost knocked him on his arse at the one reunion.. ohh.. the nerve ! And you are right MP.. I really doubt DonCaro’s positive support “off camera” initially if at all for her bro.
I too am a practicing Catholic, and I personally have no problem with gay marraige. The bible also says “Judge not lest ye be judged”, and “love you neighbor as you love yourself.” They can have their own relationship with God, as do I. It is not for me to point fingers at everybody else when I am far from perfect myself. To the people who would want to stop gay marraige I ask – What’s it to you? And it’s not like us hetero’s are doing such a bang up job of honoring the institution.
Very well said, Jesse! I am pressing the imaginary “like” button a million times!
WORD JESSIE!!! Get so sick of people putting me in a box because I happen to be Catholic! I love Jesus and I want all people to have the same equal rights as I do, I don’t think that is conflicting ideology.
Oh Dear.
Kudos! Well said ~ I’m a practicing catholic and happily married for 15 years (hetero) but agree with everything you said
Andy gets a perverse teenage boy delight in causing trouble between the women on the reunion shows as well making folks squirm in the club house. Isn’t he a producer on all of the RH’s shows? I’ve believed for quite awhile he is the one that is responsible for the questionable casting and steering the “story lines.” He could care less if people or families are destroyed, it is just deviant Nero like entertainment to him.
True. The worst thing about it is casting all Christians in a light of non acceptance. And he doesn’t have to work too hard to “trick” some of them into falling into that role beautifully. This video always makes me cry.
Church yall
I love Casting Crowns. I saw them last summer at the Joyful Noise Fest in Blaine MN. That is one of their best songs.
There are several production companies for the HW franchises. Ms andy is NOT a producer of any of them.. he is just the worm who tries to slant / control the viewing publics opinion about the shows and the cast members.
He does like to sit back on his clubhouse throne and finds the humiliation of some of these / should I say almost all of these cast members enjoyable. Now he wants to “revamp” his image as a more serious “contender” for late nite.. dream on andy.
Hiya SH,
Agree with your point about Andy that he should be more accepting to the views of others.
However, I don’t agree with Alexis’s opinion. Its just plain offensive.
Her views are her views, but knowing the “platform” these housewives have
they should be promoting equality rather than spewing non-sensical outdated things.
As a young gay man with a partner of 5 years, it saddens me that there isn’t more love and tolerance in this day and age.
While Ms.Andy goes about it the wrong way…yes cause he is “duh like”, but I feel the intention he has is right…everyone should be able to marry regardless of their orientation.
Also true about the Obama issue, while we have is support, DEFINITIVE ACTION is what we currently need.
Love the blog, and one of your biggest fans!
JR
I agree. My favorite uncle has lived with his partner for close to 15 years and I find her opinion disgusting. I know that everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but when that view is about treating someone less than an equal human being, saying less is best. With that being said, Andy should have laid off Alexis and not made her so uncomfortable. If she doesn’t agree, talk about something else or don’t have her on the show.
Kristyn,
AGREED.
Glad to know you are in alignment with social equality.
Thank you for your support!
JR
You are very welcome.
So true JR, but remember Alexis is ok with being treated unequally in her own home! I’m totally on board with Jesus, but my hubby and I are equal partners and we both believe everyone should have the same right to get married, abopt children, serve in the military, etc. etc. and we pray for it. I do agree that Obama needs to speak on what his actions will be, but man I admire him so much for even speaking his mind about what he truly feels about the issue.
Jr, I hope you understand my not liking the way Andy acts has nothing to do with him being gay. It has everything to do with his delight in causing problems and making people feel uncomfortable. I don’t care about anyone’s sexual orientation. It is none of my business. My opinion is based on perceived character.
This link provides a glimpse of the house (NOT Alexass’ rented McMansion, but a grander house in a more exclusive location in her neighborhood,) that Bravo always shows in the introduction to an Alexass segment.
http://www.bravotv.com/video/share/18403611
You can look and compare the above photo of the house which actually IS Alexass’ rented McMansion. This one in the Bravo video clip – appears in the first few seconds – is consistently used as an into to all of this seasons’ Alexass segments. I know it may be a petty item, but it demonstrates how false the Bravo folks are as they try to shore up the Bellinos’ status. Bravo’s “phony” Alexass house is around the corner and down the street from Alexass and Jim’s rented McMansion. The Bravo portrayed house is on a cliff with an ocean view and is several times larger than the Bellinos’ actual rented house. The Bravo shot house has at least double the frontage.
Just what I would expect from Bravo and the Bellinos. Jim’s new “bounce on a trampoline” franchised enterprise hasn’t’ hit any snags, has it? Can’t wait to see Alexass’ bouncing around with her 34 FF’s flopping in the wind on a trampoline in the advertising.
Has anyone noticed that the Bellinos have a different house every season?
That’s not the same house thats on the show, isn’t it?
You’re right! That’s what happens when you rent.
Now that Alexis tasted independence, it’s amazing how her attitude towards her role in life and her husband’s “rib” has changed.
These Bravo clips and all the commercials before hand are really obnoxious. I’m done with all of their shows, but still will enjoy your site. And thank you for not bombarding your SH readers with ads.
On a different, thank you Jesus sign of the cross backwards, note, can anybody help me with something? I have somehow checked the boxes in notify me of new posts……. and even though I uncheck them each new time I post, I get 500 e-mails from Stoopid Housewives (not that I don’t enjoy each and every one of them Ms. SH) but it does tend to clog up my email. Any body got an idea how to undue this word press?
Try clearing out your cache including passwords and such.Then when comment uncheck what you don’t want.. Then when you sign in with wordpress check remember me.That’s what worked for me.
Thanks so much!
Thank You!
IF I wasn’t blackballed from calling into WWHL I would have called and held Alexisisis feet to the fire or at least give her a chance to explain her opening line “I thank God everyday, for my life, and you would too” Is she inferring that only people who live in rented Dana Point homes WOULD thank God for their lives? What about all the other children of God? The ones that are not plastic kept Barbies? I am sure I would have gotten through because Miss Andy would miss the point entirely and just assume that I wanted to help humiliate her, but what I really want to know is was that her line or did an evil twisted producer feed her that one? I am a saved by the blood of the Lamb child of God also so I really would like to gently remind her of how off that sounds to believers as well as non-believers. Coincidentally, I believe that I will be in heaven with gay people one day so…. Anyway, here is an example of a gal that also thanks God for her life everyday.
I hope Stephanie Decker has a wonderful Mother’s Day with her beautiful children. God Bless her! Can y’all imagine though if Alexis was sent to report on this story? Good gracious!
The thought of Alexis doing that just makes me cringe ! I agree .. God bless Stephanie Decker and her family, thanks for sharing that MP.
Good gravy Alexis would lead in with a chipper “HIeeee” and then it would do down hill from there. They could take the audio footage she already shot of her covering the fake house fire and juxtapose it over a file video coverage of tan mom and that would be a hoot! Here is a compilation of some reporter fails. Always good for a chuckle.

MP: Your original video was not working… I’m hoping that this is the same video in your comment. Please let me know if it is not… TFC!!! SH
Perfect! Thank you.
Great observation MP. I honestly think Alexis doesn’t have the intellectual capacity to realize how outlandish her opening statement sounds to believers. I remember watching her and Jimbo ask their pastor and his wife if the Lord couldn’t use Alexis’ beauty? I’m not saying she isn’t sincere, because no one knows the heart of another, but she is clearly clueless. She never has struck me as being mean spirited, just in over hear head.
her head
I get that vibe from her too CJ. But she did strike out at Gretchen on WWHL over the whole K.tee Kewrick-like job and the way she did it was so obvious that she is not used to overtly lashing out so it came off sorta awkward. But she called down the dogs by alienating her one and only friend left on the show so I hope she knows whats coming
I “divorced” myself from the Catholic religion after the last groip of chld molestor priests were caught. I can’t believe we are supposed to follw old men (popes) that are not in touch with reality. I am happy to just believe in the Lord. I have never thought there is was anything wrong with being gay.. How can one be? God made them gay and he is supposed to know what he is doing.
I have never liked Andy, not because he’s gay but because he’s stoopid. Yes, Andy POTUS will say whatever people want to hear to get re-elected. Remember hope and change? That worked out real wel…Stop believing in politicians Ms. Andy, all are disfunctional like your housewives.
