From TMZ:
Tammy Knickerbocker’s daughter, Lindsey, was arrested for DUI on January 29… she had an almost lethal blood alcohol level of .32 (.08 is drunk in most states, including CA!). Lindsey sideswiped three cars before she stopped her car; after which she punched the arresting officer!
“TMZ’s learned Lindsey struck a deal … pleading no contest to 3 charges — DUI, hit-and-run, and battery on an officer — and a 4th for driving with a BAC of .08% or higher has been dropped.
Lindsey was sentenced to 3 years probation, 129 hours of community service and a 9-month first offender alcohol program.”
NOTE: Sounds like CA has the same “keep my kid outta jail” program just like FL!!
Tamballs’ bachelorette par-tay being held in New Rochelle, NY is still a “go”… as advertised, Tamballs’ special Housewives appearing will include JaxLaurita, as Tamballs states in her interview with LoHud.com!
Tamballs also mentions that she and Vicki are on good terms… and that Tamballs does NOT miss being “famous”!
The couple plan to marry in June or July, she says…
One imagines the wedding will be filmed for an upcoming episode of the show, though nobody’s talking yet about a spin-off.
Q. You’ve been married twice before. Are you nervous about getting married again?
A. Why would I be nervous when I can just get divorced? (Laughs) The truth is I believe in marriage and I want to be a role model to my children. I don’t want them to say, “Oh, we’re living with Mom’s boyfriend.” NOTE: Tamballs has already stated that she and Ellie are living together!
Q. You have a quick wit, but sometimes people take it the wrong way.
A. I grew up a little insecure and shy, and we actually touch on that on the show this year. I think a lot of people are going to be surprised to understand why I have a kind of tough exterior at times.
Q. Do you miss not being famous?
A. I don’t even think about it. I’m usually in a baseball hat and my workout clothes. People will recognize me, and my kids acknowledge it more than I do. For the most part, everybody is so nice. But I try to stay away from going to L.A. Orange County is so different. We don’t have paparazzi.
Q. You mention on your blog that you were once a manicurist. What else would be people be surprised to learn about you?
A. I’m just so down to earth. I don’t think I’m anything other than the girl that grew up in Glendora that has four kids and worked her whole life. I’m a very simple person. I’m not the mean girl. I’m just sarcastic.
Q. We can assume you’ll be nice and friendly at the party in New Rochelle. I hear New Jersey housewife Jacqueline Laurita has already told you she’s coming. Anybody else we’d recognize?
A. Nobody from Orange County. But I’ve invited some of the New Jersey and New York housewives, so we’ll see who shows up.
This should come as no surprise, as Tamballs’ bachelorette production is created by the same people who tried to get a ‘meet and greet’ with Miami Housewife Adriana de Moura goin’ in the same restaurant where a similar ‘meet and greet’ with da Gorgas took place… Adriana’s ‘meet and greet’ was cancelled. No one bought tickets!
So, if you were wonderin’ which “surprise” Housewives were gonna show up at Tamballs’ par-tay… the “mystery” Housewives include the sub-humans from New Jersey! The only New York Housewife who could possibly fit in with this desperate crowd would be PT Housewife! Simply could NOT see any other RHONY mixing with this crew… however, that don’t mean that for the right price or the right cut of the proceeds that a NY Housewife wouldn’t show up!
Tamballs is tryin’ her best to sell those tickets to her bachelorette par-tay for $100 a pop! A bachelorette par-tay when her wedding date has yet to be set… a wedding date, which we’re supposed to believe from the RHOC preview… that Ellie is hesitant to set!?
Yet, Tamballs states that the date has been set!
Maybe Ellie will agree to a date when he gets his own par-tay!
Why then is Tamballs having a ‘bachelorette’ party? Any other reason than to make some much-needed cash???
Tamballs son, Ryan Veith, is NOT smoking crack!!
IF this is Tamballs’ son, Ryan… he is hangin’ out at his ocean-front condo smokin’ weed, just doin’ his job which was handed to him by his soon-to-be-step-daddy, Ellie…and wantin’ everyone to get on his “LEVEL” before talkin’ to him! From TheDirty:
- vieth
I’ve never smoked crack in my life, i only smoke weed everyday while i work from home and smell the fresh ocean air from my ocean front house. But I want to thank you for trending my name and keep watching our show. 6 years and running and 6 years of paychecks while you slave at some bullshit job. <3 get on my level before you talk
Tina Fey… what she thinks about the RHONJ:
(Thanks to SH readers “DSP” “PMG” “cybraxis” and “CathyFromFtM”!!)
Sounds like TammyDooDoo is tryin to convince viewers that they’ve got the wrong impression of her all along. She didn’t sound “insecure and shy” when she threw wine at Jeanna. She didn’t sound “sarcastic” when she was shrieking “jesus-jugs!” at Alexis. Could she worried about whether there is enough interest in her wedding storyline?– you betcha!
They want their own show/spinoff and they just might get it. Also your right, California has the Kid get out of jail card. Jesus she did all that and no jail time and no expression of guilt.
I would say it’s nice to live in CA or at least have the get out of jail card…
I live in California and I can assure you that the get out of jail card is only for celebrities or their kids.
So when do you suppose that the people who come up with syndromes invent one for children of reality “stars”? With some of them already showing signs of becoming drunk drivers, thieves and junkies. I am waiting to see a legal defense for these kids. Reality show syndrome. Makes children grow up with a unhealthy view of what life really is. It makes sure that none of these kids will ever have to take responsibility for any of their actions. They will have to be let off on any and all charges because they have a mental illness. Made, I think you are much smarter than I when it comes to definitions and explanations about what kind of criteria should be made for that kind of legal excuse for committing criminal behaviors. (not saying you have any criminal background) Just saying you are much better explaining things than I. And funnier…LOL..
While I’m certainly not saying that this will never be a problem for any of the kids on reality shows, you can’t really blame it on that in the case of Lindsay. First of all, it’s been years since she’s been on the show… secondly, during the earliest episodes, it was obvious that she was a “party girl” already… before the cameras showed up. Same thing with Tamra’s son. He had problems from the onset. Two that were featured far more than Lindsay ever was seemed to have turned out to be very decent people… Brianna (Vicki’s daughter) and Geena’s daughter (geez I can’t remember her name). It would be very difficult to prove that some of these kids wouldn’t have had problems whether or not they were on reality tv. Ashley and Lynn’s Curtains’ daughters for instance… they were destined for trouble IMO. The only difference is any trouble they may get into will be far more publicized than otherwise.
I would say that a lot of the problem with some of these kids is in the way they were raised, moreso than their tiny bit of reality show fame. I wouldnt have recognized the young lady at all if Ms SH hadnt refreshed my memory. I think you can give kids a lot of advantages in life without completely ruining them. But you have to guide them carefully and teach them to learn from mistakes. Some parents forget that “stuff” should not be a babysitter. You can buy a kid a car before he or she is ready because its easier than driving him or her around all the time. You can pay for oodles of expensive activities to keep them busy so you can be free to do what you want. You can hire a couple of nannies. Money can buy you freedom but it cant teach values and kindness. And how will a kid learn if you keep bailing her out of every mess she gets into? Some of the messed up kids Ive come across in my parenting years have been kids from wealthier families…not the kids from the wrong side of the tracks. Whether you have money or you dont…your duties as a parent are still the same.
Briana even from her early years at the start of the franchaise has been the most stable person in HW history imo.
The whole upbringing in such area’s seem so superficial that it must be hard for the kids HW’s or not being in such a social circle. The emphasis on what your social standing is seems to take precidence over true moral obligations. Apologies to anyone that has grown up in the area’s shown on RHW’s but that’s how it comes across!
We have a phrase over here in the UK, called being a ’10 bob millionaire’, you might have the house, the car, the furniture, the clothes, the surgery but bugger all in the fridge because everything is on tick (credit, and no real money to speak of). It reminds me of two of my mothers friends. One was very much a 10 bob millionaire, she was very vocal about the cost of everything she bought (no doubt the credit card of hers had it’s own assigned extingusher). Mum’s other friend had a beautiful home, complete with helicopter landing pad ‘in the back garden’, yet she dressed in jeans, baggy jumpers and never spoke about money, she had nothing to prove. The son of the rich lady suffered though, he resented being placed in private schools so much, he wanted to kill his mother and she had to move a number of times! The other friend would have killed to have put her daughter in a private school just to be able to say, she’d got her child in one!
Bottom line is, money and status is nothing, integrity, honesty and love is everything. If only people like the HW’s we watch held that value true, then maybe, just maybe, there would be more Briana’s around them. I’ve not included Cara, I like her now but she’s had her own flaws in the ‘rich kid’ vacinity in recent years but she seems more grounded now.
With mothers like that, Im afraid those kids would have ended up just as badly, only we wouldn’t know about it, and they would be in jail with the people who aren’t “lucky” enough to have the magic “get out of it easy even if you beat up a homeless guy “card. Again, oh the humanity!
June or July, huh? How will all your loyal following know which date to block off for our home wedding drinking game parties? And is it smart to tell the whole Twitterverse that you smoke weed? Even in California? Its still illegal, right? Every day? Is that normal? Doesnt your “boss” care? If Ellie has any brains at all he doesnt allow this moron ANY contact with the customers or general public. Hey maybe he’s on house arrest. Thats why he works from home.
Ohyeeaah…”We’ve set the date”…”it’s in June or July”… doesn’t really sound legit to me…Tamra’s such a knucklehead.
June or July of what year? It is already practically March and June is three months away. Doesn’t wedding take, oh, I don’t know, some sort of planning? Her bachelorette party has been planned for MONTHS.
Her son is a jerk. I bet Tamra bought him that condo. Her ex was right with his tough love approach. Now he sounds like an idiot. No smoking pot everyday is not normal. Everyday use decreases your motivation and your memory turns to
crap.
Tamra claims she “tries to stay away from going to L.A.” because of the paparazzi, yet she somehow manages to drag herself and Eddie to various L.A. events, posing for the cameras and talking to anyone with a microphone. Does she really expect people to believe that paparazzi follow her every move as soon as she enters L.A.? Kim Kardashian she is not.
IF Tamra stays away from LA it is because she is embarrassed that nobody recognizes her.
Give me a break, “worked her whole life!”" My azz! When married to Simon, she didn’t work. he lost his job and got the kids ready for school and she got up at 10:00am or so – she admitted that on an episode back them. she didn’t Pretend” to use her real estate license until the last season or two, but didn’t sell anything. And from what I’ve read – she presently “works out” not “work” as in run her fitness place – it is struggling cause she is lazy and dumb – Eddie is running that losing business venture. She and JaCoWaCo can get naked wasted drunk at her bash – if it isn’t cancelled – in NewYork.. I predic a low turnout. Can’t see too many NewYorkers relating to TamBalls. JaCo’s NewJersey cult following fans who don’t read the internet and are clueless of her FedFraud and drunk tweets – will prob comt to see Jack – not TamBalls. I do not see a spin-off for TamBalls and gay Eddie. I am shocked Bravo didn’t film the wedding this season. Maybe even Andy gets tired of the losers always begging for the paid weddings, etc.. Some peeps are fans of TamBalls, kinda more 60%, not many though from the blogs, etc, I read.
Never trust a man who thinks he looks ok going out in public in red leather trousers or his missus who looks like she should eat from a horse bag………. just saying
Oh I just realized that Tam’s BEOTCH-lorette party is this Wednesday, and I hope for Tam’s sake that Alex from RHNY will show up and give her some pointers about how to handle life with a gay husband.
Ahahahaha now that was funny. Remember Silex, oh god they were awkward.
“Rain” and “Snow” will be attending Tammy’s bachelorette shindig in New Rochelle, along with “Coastal Flooding.”
The National Weather Service has forecast rain before midnight Tuesday, followed by rain and snow until 2 a.m. Rain is forecast after 2 a.m. For Wednesday, expect rain mainly before noon, with a high near 45. There is a coastal flood advisory in effect from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Wednesday coinciding with high tide. There is a 100 percent chance of precipitation Wednesday. It will also be windy, with 13 to 18 mph easterly winds. There could be gusts as high as 30 mph.
Enjoy!
Dee: A PERFECT excuse for canceling the par-tay! TFC!!! SH
She lives in Orange Co. She works in Orange Co. But she’s having a bachelor par-tae back east. Ok, moving on…..if Bravo thinks we would watch a show of Tamara and Eddie then I have some land in a swamp that I could sell to them as well.
I never liked that Tami.
I never Liked Tamra until last season when she went off on Vickie which I thought was great.
And yes I agree with Vickie the friendship between Tamra and Gretchen is fake. It stinks as bad as Slade does on his best day.
