Throwing a drink and hitting someone with s purse is inherently violent. The only reason it didn’t get to the point like in season 5 is because Wendy did not react physically… this season is sad and really shows the lack respect for dark skinned women on the show
Right on! Look at how Robyn was retelling the incident between Mia & Wendy to Candiace when she arrived at the house in Mexico. Also, Robyn questioned why was Candiace crying when Ashley & Karen were talking with her away from the group.
The fact that Robyn felt like she could convince Candiace to gang up with them was telling. We've seen this before. Same old, same old with this group. You can't go along once and think you won't be expected to continue. Operation "Get Wendy off the show" didn't work THIS time.
People like Gizelle are very dangerous. I read somewhere that Chris lost professional gigs due to Gizelle's accusations. He lost clients and had family issues because of it. I really hope he sues because this is ridiculous. I hope she doesn't get away with this!
Chis is a clout chaser living off of his wife's fame and wealth. He needs to go fix his relationship with his illegitimate kids and that son that don't F with him. F'ing baby daddy ass. Candice should've listened to her mother
@@center-stagedwithgg8750 despite his faults no one deserves to be cancelled for straight out lies about x assault. This type of lie is life-altering if not life threatening. It’s so egregious it’s a crime. Wasn’t Chris working for his family when Ashley decided to lie about the reason he slid into her DMs ? If you don’t like him that’s ok but dismissing how egregious an accusation made against him is like saying Juandering Dixon is a faithful husband allegedly
When Candiace said that Gizelle lying was part of what made it hard for women to come forward, she was right. Women don't come forward because they're afraid to be accused of lying to intentionally ruin a man's life. Gizelle took things too far so people speculated that Chris was some type of predator. That, and making someone uncomfortable are two VERY different things. We should not be playing with allegations like that.
I’ve said it before, the editors actively work to make ALL of the women look CRAZY. There has been no hero of the story. This seasons editing of the way they vindicate Chris just let’s me know that he really didn’t do anything that they’re accusing him of. If they had the material to make Chris look CRAZY they would’ve done it. This show is only going to get worse if they don’t get rid of gizelle, Robyn, and Ashley because with them there, there will never be any moving forward. This show has taken the darkest turn after the fight of S5. It kinda gives me anxiety when I watch it.
I wish they would go back to doing rich black women things and showing class. Damn I might as well be watching love and marriage any one of them or love and hip hop something chile. Throw the whole embarrassing black people show away.
Same which I is why to protect my peace I'm no longer watching the RH franchises. I just can't do it anymore. I'll watch the review and support the content creators but Bravo is not getting my energy anymore.
Gizelle has always brought *nothing* to the show except being vile. She and Robyn only bring their light skins and green eyes to the show. I would also be shocked if Robyn comes back next season. Gizelle should have been gone when Monique exposed her fake storyline with receipts! They are dead weight to the show. They create a divide that feels like high school to me, because tell me why they hate Wendy so much to the point that they're fine with her being attacked! disgusting!
Gizelle and Robin are taking the lazy way out by saying “I don’t like her.” You can dislike someone but also be a decent human being. Their behavior is trash. Wrong is wrong.
Karen is the definition of finesse. She is quickly able navigate herself out of a jam. I would like for this cast to be reduced to 6 housewives. It’s time for a reset, and the network needs to take a solid stance of lying, and violence.
Yes, I didn’t like how they did Chris and Eddie that is wrong and if they truly felt a certain kind of way THAT is a conversation I would have off camera! You messing with their reputation and finances! Crazy especially if it was something that wasn’t rape sexual assault etc just a discomfort… and he didn’t threaten you touch you … I feel that could have been talked about off camera
I think Mia, Robin, and Giselle plotted to get Wendy to come out of character. They wanted her to lose her job at John Hopkins.... I'm proud of Wendy for not beating Mia's azz that night. My hulk would've came out .
@ Ma' Ree. I said months ago THEY want to ruin what Wendy has going on & that Candiace is excelling into the music industry. They have the "advantages" but are so jealous & too stupid to take advantage of the platform before them to do humanitarian work or better their own lives. A college doesn't make you smart if you don't use it. Gizzard might be slick but she's slow. Same for Robert.
Of course they did‼️ It worked with Monique. Gizelle is behind all of it! She feels intimidated by the brown girls with beauty, brains, and fierce tongues used to drag her with her own unpleasant truth. Monique was pretty, had a good husband, and 5 🏠🏡🏘🤣. She let GEB know that she would throw hands👊🏽 if need be. Gizelle doesn't want anyone around that she can't control, mind their business /relationships, or use to do her dirty work. Her name really should be Karen. Start 💩, spread rumors minds everyone elses business, and lies, then want you 'arrested' ie off the show after you've let her Bish 🍑 know, "You ain't the one👌🏽." She really looks bitter, and it's wearing on her physically . She's looking like her mother's sister. And her clothes are too small plus her wigs are cheap and ugly. Everyone knows she has no fashions.😜😜 Can you tell I'm 🤭ver her. She can take her puppets with her too⁉️
Superhero Candiace’s kryptonite is that she approaches each housewife with little caution Even after they’ve shown her who they are. ( she’s got unconditional sister love I geddit but it can be hazardous) As Ms Angelou said when people show you who they are believe them.
When Candiace said “we are still waiting for you to tell us what he did” I said right there and then that Candiace is watching your videos!!!! As she should because you nail it EVERYTIME!
The way I would’ve told Mia off if I was Wendy and hit her with the Simone line “are you being an example with yo ragiddy broke ass, leasing cars, leasing houses “ 😂
Then she could hit her with Happy Eddie and his Instagram obsession,not too mention her husband writing Mia's name as the one he would hit among the housewives.
Hey Rodney, RHOP should take a long awaited hiatus like RHOBH did. Robyn will always have a childish blind loyalty to Gizelle because she got her on the show. Gizelle has a brother and sister. Recent reports about Michael Darby’s real estate portfolio have resurfaced because he has become the largest landowner in Somalia. While many real estate investors own property international, there are many concerns about Michael’s investment in land in Somalia. This can be an issue with locals and investors who are not from the country, and social issues occurring in the country Somalia. Do y’all remember Candiace’s “overseer” comment to Ashley about Michael?👀
I haven’t liked Karen since she did Candiace that way on sn 5. I also think she has colorist ways. You’re never going to convince me that she didn’t take Monique’s side b/c Monique passes the brown paper bag test and Candiace doesn’t. Her initial disdain for Wendy was also a dead giveaway as well. But the reason Karen fans don’t care about her lies is because most of the time, Karen’s lies aren’t harmful to other ppl. Her lies aren’t malicious. And I said the thing about all of the light skin women on one couch but I got that from someone else on Twitter to be honest. I just don’t remember who.
I’ve seen a few of Gizelle’s stans say that it makes no sense for her to defend someone who she doesn’t like. But to turn a blind eye to the maltreatment of someone simply because you don’t like them is low. Not to mention, Wendy ain’t said nothing worse about Gizelle than Karen did in the same season. We’re holding Gizelle to the same standard she set for herself during the the Monique/Candiace situation. Then violence was sooo egregious , but now she is negotiating what level of violence deserves chastisement. Here’s the thing, no one expects her to defend Wendy, but at the very least treat Mia with the same level of disdain for perpetrating violence against another cast mate, as you did with Monique. The truth is she picks a side based on who she likes less, and if she had been upfront about this from the get go, she wouldn’t look like a hypocrite today.
Not extending basic human rights, dignity, safety, equity and the law because of demographic or physical differences is the basis of racism, oppression and bigotry. I would argue that Giselle is not only an (unknowing) colorist but a blatant bigot. She has demonstrated that she could not offer dignity, safety and equal understanding to Wendy at the hands of violence. Now one could argue that Giselle was yielding to colorism, but as soon as she pointed her (disrespectful) finger at Wendy and said that she could not extend (her) moral and ethical standards to Wendy because she did not ‘like’ her. That’s more severe than colorism, that is outright and blatant bigotry, an oppressive behavior and expressive hate. With that being said, had she been a white woman, the world would have called her a racist and Bravo probably would have fired her. Real tea.
So Robyn was mad at Candiace for holding her accountable on the way they treated Wendy on the Miami trip and thats why she "exposed her" (which we already knew glad Robyn admitted it) when I tell yall the way I can't stand Robyn 🤣🤣
We all know who the brain is❕️ Remember last season, "Are we mad at Ashley for anything ?" I'm sure her puppeteer had something to do with that as well.
Love your review, you Erica Dinero , Nikki Star TV and The Brooke Ashley are the only RU-vidrs that can really articulate the topic of colorism in an educated, insightful and entertaining way. Cudos to you 👏🏾👏🏾Keep shinning and keep the reviews coming because we need them ❤️
Colorism was displayed at this reunion. When Candiace was explaining how she experienced colorism on the show Gizelle, Robyn, and Ashley were defensive but when Karen started talking about it in defense of Candiace and pretty much saying the same thing Candiace said, they were quiet and acknowledged/took in everything Karen said.
Exactly, so far, I only heard one person point that out. People were going in on Candice and Wendy for not speaking up when they wasn't trying to hear Candice.
They most definitely watch your channel. I noticed them repeat things throughout this reunion that you have said. I actually like it because your points be SPOT on!
Some of those fans forget that this is a job, Gizelle is an employee who answer's to her boss. I holler when Andy said, yes we are going to talk about it. I said "tell her Andy ", who those ladies think they are! Gizelle asked to be put in her placed by Andy.
Robyn said...."what's the age difference"? Gizzelle gave her green eyed partner the...Bitch I've been covering up your shit all season! Gizzelle said..."I'm not a mathmatician". 😂😂 I saw a comment that said Gizzelle's dress look like a bottle of White Diamond perfume! 🤣🤣🤣
To respond to Ashley, we know it’s NOT Candiace’s personality and IS colorism because when folks cite their reasons for hating her those reasons match YOUR actions Ashley🙄. That’s when ppl start to wonder ‘what’s the difference here?’🤔
Giselle sat at that table in Jamaica and said she didn’t hear anything about Juan cheating when the actual Canadian female he supposedly “flewed” out DM’d her. Robyn said she was waiting for the ladies to bring it up. Welp, they brought it up and Robyn gaslit Kurn by showing a pic of her at a bar. (losing my support in the process.) but “…our real lives are supposed to be shared” -Robyn Dixon to Candiace 🙄
Jackie was definitely in on it and a part of the scheme. Where I give Jackie more grace than Mia is- it's like if you and your friends are going out and decide a dress code then you come and you're the only one that followed it. Mia never had good intentions when it came to Jackie. To me, Jackie was looking at it as a group effort like their version of Gizelle and Robyn. So absolutely Jackie is not innocent and she needs to hold some accountability. But Mia will always be more wrong because she knew this group and show more. She probably told Jackie a lie, Jackie believed it, then switched up.
If Gizelle stays for another season, I need the ladies to speak on her mental health...coz she has a few screws loose; she emotionally retarded and a liar...she would make my top ten "unhinged" housewives.
Sing Sing is a maximum security prison. She was flat out wrong. Now, perhaps she was trying to think of a mental health institution and the streets say Gizelle suffered a mental health breakdown due to Pastor Jamal’s infidelities. Allegedly! 🫠
Robyn & Gizelle has no humanity within them because when you're right, you're right & when you're wrong, you're wrong, regardless of who it is. Those women cannot be trusted because had there been no cameras, because of the color of their skin, everybody would have completely dismissed Dr. Wendy's experience. That is some very callous & heartless behavior.
About this mess of a colorism segment, I still stand by my opinion that if we could sit through a Nicki Minaj takeover to make last season a four part reunion, we could’ve gotten a four part reunion with a moderator dedicated to the conversation on colorism.
If Candiace comes back next season thinking Robyn is her friend, I will be so done with her in terms of taking her side against Robyn and Gizelle. The bandits could let have on her if that's the case.
I’m glad you mentioned how Gizelle’s health issues aren’t an anomaly for reality tv. She had the opportunity to control the narrative and reveal at least some of what was going on. She chose not to do that and she’s not off limits just because she wants to be. Hell didn’t they film during a miscarriage on Run’s House? She needs to either get demoted or come up off her private business, and not some made up relationship.
I think Gizelle ignored her own daughters problems with colorism...they probably don't have a safe space in her and that's why their relationship seems so odd. It's like, yes they love their mother but they still seem to think she is shallow. It's not normal to say that your mother is nicer when in a relationship. Gizelle is too old to change. She is a virgo...her pride and righteousness won't allow for her to accept for colorism to be a problem, she would have to own all her gaslighting.
Karen is a southern old school women reminds me of many I know. Ask them about their life before they got married and watch them bob and weave like a professional dodge ball player. They say something funny to make you stop asking 🤣🤣
Ashley gave that pageant ass response but she and the GEBs are exactly the same: Ashley hates Candiace and didn’t care about the violence that happened. She never called Mia or any of the group out. The fact that people bought that bs of her being nice to Wendy is crazy. She turned right around to be messy and invite Wendy to dinner and fanned the flames again.
The colorism conversation should’ve been both moderated and a separate special after the reunion. Both the cast and the viewers are definitely the issue and idk how karen doesn’t get called out. After how she treated Wendy for no reason, she should still be getting dragged. Karen and her fans think she’s slick but she’s really about as slick as dry grits. Fans are up in arms about “dwindling uterus” but Karen calling her a broken hoe from Hampton w/ a hot box was a read. Karen making fun of Gizelle allegedly staying in a psychiatric hospital because of Jamal is a read. But Candiace is the worst? Smh
And you saw when Mia tried to speak up for Gizelle and Gizelle was basically like “no no don’t speak for me” 😂😂 As for Wendy and Mia I agreed with Gizelle because all that 😽 sharing Wendy and Mia were doing was too much with the person who assaulted you. However Wendy cried because she was shocked at how unapologetic Mia was on that stage.
I just started following u as a result of seeing you on the panel with Jamie nem. You did awesome and I been watching THE SHIT out of your content since. U falling in love with the Man Woman gave me my entire life🤣. Keep shining your light! I’m in love 🥰
**** Long Post Alert 🚨 *** I didn’t watch any of the Potomac reunions because I didn’t want to give ole wrinkle-neck Bryant, Homeless Football head Darby, and Strong Back Dixon any of my energy. I do feel like Andy should have pushed the colorism segment a lot more than two minutes because she is definitely the 8th and 9th housewife. I wish he would have just had a black woman up there to discuss because not only Potomac has colorism but other reality shows dealing with Women of Color, all have the same issues with colorism. I do appreciate that he sat back and listen and allow the women like Candiace and Wendy who have experienced it express their experiences and thoughts about colorism. I do feel that this show needs to be fully recasted. Keep both Wendy and Candiace because they have actually storylines (authentic ones), bring Askale, and other friends of both Candiace & Wendy, or at least add new women of color and more darker hue of the Potomac and DC area. This show reminds me of RHOA dark seasons (7-9), especially season 9 when dumb and dumber falsely accused Kandi of the R-word or wanting to R-word Porsha. I want something fresh for black women on tv. We all called RHOA boring but at least it is boring and light-hearted shade.
BoRYN ended her statement with "Wendy if Mia hit you, you deserve to get hit because you're doing too much." When she was saying fight when the cameras go down.
Now whoa whoa you don't think Karen who is about to be 60 doesn't know who Carol Burnett is?!?! I'm 33 and know who that lady is lol. I grew up watching Mama's Family and my mom who is 62 still watches The Carol Burnett show
I’ve had a hysterectomy and I approve the dragging of Giselle. The surgery happened during the season and she had complications. That is a risk with any surgery. It ain’t all that sensitive. But lying on a cast mates husband is. F Giselle.
I remember Giselle said at last seasons reunion she wouldn’t care if Mia got physical with Candiace after she said “your mothers low budget” but she never said anything like that to Ashley who been in conflict with everyone
What conversation do we have with our young sons, nephews, etc. about how they should handle themselves if they find themselves in a Gizelle like situation? You can't expect boys to not be alone with girls, that's not realistic. So, teaching them to respect girl's wished is not enough. Chris immediately respected Gizelle's wishes and it still wasn't enough. You can even stress to them that a girl has the right to be OK with something one second and not OK the next, respect that. The problem is, it's never enough. This infuriates me. I can't even put it into words the way I want. There is no telling how many times in Gizelle's life she has done this. She's dangerous. Period.
Honestly, I feel like it's a very fine line. On one hand, young men should be taught to respect women and their boundaries. Also take allegations seriously. On the other, if it's revealed someone is lying, it always seems uncertain what the best way to handle it is? Some people clap back immediately, others stay silent, some don't say anything unless explicitly asked. All can make you look guilty or like you don't care about a serious situation. There's definitely a bigger conversation to be had.
You’re absolutely correct about the men’s disengagement from the women. When Giselle made the comment, “Chris said he wanted to talk to me and I’ve been sitting here all day.” while at Candiace’s album release party is proof of that.
Candiace is saying that Robyn could have brought it to her and not the group….she’s not saying that it had to be off camera - just not to the group….many of times there have been only 2 people in conversation, not the group….so the same way she popped up when Chris and Candiace were out eating, she could’ve done the same with just Candiace….I think that’s what Candiace meant.
I feel the same way about Nene Leakes. Since her 1st season she's managed to keep her personal & family business off the show, like Greg cheat'n, her deadbeat son & his rachett bm who btw was call'n Nene out once upon a time 💯 & Nene blocked her own sister's from being apart of the show bcuz she didn't want her business on the show #facts but nobody talks about that bcuz those watered down one liners be having ya'll stomachs in knots huh
All it takes is for a couple of people who were in the know that when to Empowerment Temple during the time she was "First Lady" there, to drop real tea about Giselle.
How hypocritical is Robyn for saying that about Candace when she worked overtime to hide her ish with Juan. She obviously doesn’t feel everything should be on camera.
Yes, I agree with you..Karen and Giseelle are big ass colorists...Karen is smarter about it...that is what they have in common...two high yella women who married dark skin men who they believe should worship them because they are light skin. And quiet as it is kept..that's why the men married them
Gizelle didn’t want to tell her business because she knows how Candiace will use it. That’s why her response towards Chris was vague, because the response was mild compared to how Candiace response really could’ve been.
35:48 Thank You. Why do people keep saying "why does Wendy want to be friends with Gizelle&Robyn". NO, she wants to keep the check, not their friendship.
Ya'll remember last year on the couples trip when Mia tried to come for Ashley by asking where Michael was because Ashley didn't appreciate G's drunken behavior?? Why didn't she "acknowledge" Ashley's feelings then.. Esp since Ash had defended her in the Lettuce throwing incident. They're all so fake😭
Fun and thorough review as always! The lying on each other and violence (not just on RHOP) is getting to be too much. Mia, Robin, and Gizelle trying to excuse how they handled the drink throw was not cool. And I'm with Andy... this isn't the Victorian era?? Men and women can be alone together. Rob and Gizzy are just speaking from the trauma of having spouses who cheated and need to stop projecting.
Thanks for the recap Rodney! As always, your videos are never too long to me, bc the way I stretched this to last me for this 2 hour drive by rewinding and Kiki-ing along the way is a shame!! 😂 You delivered the facts and the laughs, as per usual!!
Hey Cousin. It takes Candiace a while to realize when someone isn't a real friend. I can't wait until she wakes up about Robin. She is going to str8 drag her with that mouth, and we know Robin will likely act like Monique(using her hands instead of her words).
I think Robin is going to remove herself to avoid talking about Juan . Juan does not play that, he doesn’t want Robin saying anything about his business.
Candiace thought since everyone took up for her during the Monique dispute that they were her friends. They just hated Monique and her 4 homes more and wanted her off the show. They were never Candiace’s friends. It was never about being anti-violent, just look how they sided with Mia. It was anti-4 homes.
So glad you don't turn a blind eye to the bs. I never understood why Candice or Kenya get so much hate online from the viewers. The nasty things I have read hurts my heart so bad I be wondering why they deserve such treatment.
RODNEY!!!! You literally just became favorite by saying Karen is a colorist. I thought I was the only one who saw it. I see you, you see me, we see each UH THA!!!! Thank you for being honest with “ tha voice”. ❤
Another thing, it is wrong to ever place so much blame on Wendy and Candiace for their relationships with these women. There is obvious double speak going on in this group. That is why Wendy was so shocked Gizelle would attack her family and Candiace that Robyn would pull out a JBL speaker to expose her. Them wanted things to work out is strict ly for the show bc we see in real life they only hang out with each other. They watch the show with us like they have said and act accordingly. It is also telling of the colorism on the show that people would think the dark skin women love to beg light skin women for friendship. But never put the emphasis on how 2 faced these light skin women are.
