Monica would make a great castmate on Traitors! I don't see her ever going back to Salt Lake Housewives because that group of women have seemed to come to the same page entirely on not filming with Monica ever in any way. With that being said maybe also throw Heather Gay on Traitors that season and have the camera ready when Monica drives up to the castle lol.
I like Monica. She didn’t steal from the elder like Jenn Shah did, yet the other housewives were okay with Jenn, especially Heather. I won’t watch anymore. Heather, Lisa and Whitney are HUGE hypocrites and BORING AF. 😂
This interview was conducted fairly and honestly, Melissa held monica to the fire respectfully and she answered everything upfrontly to the point that I left feeling well informed.
I LOVED Monica on the last season of RHOSLC and I think it is a huge mistake to fire her when Heather lied through her teeth about her black eye and Lisa was a monster to Meredith. I’ve loved the show from the first episode but I will no longer watch. Mary always made me laugh and I loved Meredith but the rest of the cast are insufferable.
Traitors may not be the way to go,but there is another show that just aired season 1,called "House of Villians" and it has a cash prise at the end of each season. Maybe she should consider applying, I honestly think she would be perfect for it
My opinion may be unpopular but I liked watching Monica on Salt City Housewives - and thought the other wives treated badly and were over the top mean but gave Jenn Shah a pass. Ridiculous. Not saving that Monica is a saint, or right for what she did but she didn’t rob and steal from old people.
apples & oranges. andy has like 8 people & numerous issues to deal with he cant focus on just one womans viewpoint. He has to keep it moving. He can never win cause real HW fans are such fanatics.
Monica doubled down during filming trying to act like she was there to make the cast pay for their wrong doing. And using what people who have known each other a lot longer against them bc you did it and how could they throw stones at you? They have known each other longer. They have built the relationship. You weren’t trying to build a relationship- you were trying to be the one who took them down. So why would they tryst you? You didn’t work for the respect or forgiveness. Then used your social media after and prior to push your agenda. Inauthentic. Disingenuous. That’s not trying to form a friendship that’s just trying to be a winner.
Im so sick of these real HW casts acting like their feelings come before the show. You are castmates. Its a job you are paid to do. You should work with whatever cast is chosen. If you dont then pack your bags. I think thats whats happening at Potomac. It should happen at SLC. Monica coming back would make next season intriguing to see how they resolved all the chaos of last season. Plus Monica is just great TV.
@@MelissaRiversOfficial And to clarify; I discovered YOUR genius via following your Momma (RIP absolute Goddess Legend), but didn't realize you had this pod 'til Jeff. SO fun. Cannot wait watch more beauty! xoxox
Its disturbing how Bravo fired her but keep toxic women on the show who scammed people and r voilent etc. Heather and Lisa r the true villains on that show imo. Specially Heather. Yet Monica pays the price. Bravo is very toxic and Monica is way too good for them.
I'm sorry but Monica tries to justify her actions and choices way too often. I do not like Monica and don't trust her. She seemed pretty open and proud to share that she had an affair with her brother-in-law. She is not someone I would ever trust. I was a single mother for 17 years and struggled and at one time held 3 jobs. Of course, there were desperate times but I would never sacrifice my integrity like Monica did. Monica is not a genuine person.
1:28 my mum liked new things; new jobs, new experiences. New personalities - to strengthen her shape shifting narcissistic abilities. I like Monica holds herself accountable. Unlike her vile mother.
I absolutely love Monica. I think the ladies of RHOSLC had all they could take with Jen. Monica was collateral damage, prolly those ladies have skeletons of their own. When Monica said it was easy to turn Jen in, I screamed with joy. Please bring her back to anything
Omg!! Monica !!! You 100% did the morally Right thing to do!! Melissa, why does it feel like you don’t agree. Ugh. Typical Hollywood nepotism; protecting the bs. Gross.
I don’t understand why she said her family is from Portugal but on the show she said her family built up Bermuda. Is that extended family she was talking about? Legit I was like I would rather she have her own show or get rid of the old cast or bring Monica in with a new cast.
I miss Joan so much 😢I rewatch her over and over, and still have my Joan rivers lipglosses and nail polishes. If I can’t get my weekly dose of miss Joan anymore I’ll settle for Melissa any day. (I’m just kidding) I love Melissa … She did a great job with this interview 👏
It doesnt really matter what monica did, they dont like her and she was always just there for shock value and since she was connected to Jen. I feel like she just reminded them of Jen and they wanted to all put that behind them. Angie at least fits in with the women more around that same age, but whenever there is a younger one they eat them alive on all the franchises, and they already have whitney who is younger. So i feel like the cast is perfect without monica.
Monica was great for the show, but in all honesty, her reactionary behavior is scary and with a tenuous handlings of bravo right now and production and lawsuits and all the things are happening behind the scenes at bravo she’s too much of a loose canon to have on that show as reactionary she was the show. She’ll say things that hit to the core honestly, if the producer she’s gold lawyers, she’s a potential liability in fact a potential liability that could possibly bring bravo down I liked Monica. She was there was honesty about her vulnerability about her, but the thing that unfortunately she could not control was her behavior and her volatile anger, and then the way that she would clap back and strike back, she hits to the bone and for a Network that already has a tenuous relationship with their classmates and a lot of lawsuits and a reality racketing that type of behavior like Jen Shaw‘s behavior is more of a liability than it is an asset and is great as I think she would be on the show and is stupid as I think that production and casting was to not cast her for the following season, it’s a smart move, unfortunately for her
Monica is so confusing… I get her taking down Jen shah and all that but then 0 acknowledgement at reunion for the bad parts of it that hurt the other ladies’ feelings, ofc the ladies wouldn’t be happy w her?? She’s pretty weird for not getting that
Monica gave me a new perspective of her, great job. I still think she can use some therapy but as Mellissa said she has self awareness and is resilient which is good.
This was a great interview, I may not like the person being interviewed however it does shine a different light on her that we didn't get to see on the show or on viral tiktoks. Melissa asked the right questions... But I will say the chandelier in the background is amazing, it's a beautiful crystal sailing ship chandelier. It's beautiful.
If she’s sitting down with people like Melissa I have a strong feeling Monica is going to be back on our tv screens on some sort of reality tv show. Fingers crossed she returns to RHOSLC to finish out her storyline! Then they can give her a spin-off!
Monica is honest almost to a fault. I appreciate it but it's very sus in the fact her loyalty seems somewhat non-existent. I wouldn't trust Monica as far as I can throw her. With anything. Her only saving grace is her being a single mother. She needs a little more humility in her energy and to remember aggression can throw people off. I think she can grow and change. I hope that for her.
I mean r the rest of the women any better? Heather was a slave of Jena but played the martyr villain towards Monica. She knew about it imo and was waiting. Lisa is way too narcissistic and goes below the belt, insults families etc. Whitney is a victim and a martyr and would do anything for a storyline. Meredith is good at hiding her shit and plays cool and classic but I hv my doubt about her but at least she is better than the rest. So I think Monica is very much justified imo. Sure what she did was not cool but she didn't bully or destroyed them. They can stop acting like spoiled rich/privileged women.. She didn't deny anything, she earned her place but they didn't see her to be their equal.
This is just like that Bethenny Frankel podcast interview with Raquel. Monica is the new Sandoval/Raquel and is getting attention now. I know RHOSLC is a hit now (apparently 7 million viewers tuned into this season) but really?!
@@GameLover-pz5zc Yep, judging by the official count, they just added them up. There is no way they can check all streaming sites (paid or free) so the current trend is probably going off social media mentions + trending topics + official viewership which says little. Obviously they don't come anywear near 1 million viewers even per 3 episodes...
I like her personality but you can't trust a snitch.... Someone that pulls their phone out and records people then makes a fake twitter page unfortunately shes for the streets not the TV.
Since when does the audience need to trust our reality stars? She may be for the streets but that's exactly why she's great TV! Salt lake would have been cancelled without her chaos, I say bring her back or give her a spinoff✨
