Welcome to the pod, and welcome to another episode of What's the Reality on What the Reality. In this episode, I am deep diving into the messed-up relationship that is now West Wilson and Amanda Batula. But before I get into timelines, I'll explain who Amanda, Ciara, and West are and how they were introduced on the show. I also talk about the undeniable factor: race, and how a friend's betrayal is way worse than a man betraying you, and of course, the facts of this twisted situation. There ma...
Welcome to the pod and welcome to another episode of Toxic Tuesday. I cannot believe the rumors and nastiness about Amanda and West turned out to be true, and I can't believe the best names we came up with are Scamanda and Westgate. Stay tuned for a deep dive in the near future; besides that, I am doing my full premiere thoughts on Real Housewives of Rhode Island and Real Housewives of Atlanta. Sundays on Bravo are soooo back. In addition, some real-life (tea) topics include Kim Zolciak and K...
Welcome to another Toxic Tuesday episode. I cannot believe the Ciara, West, and Amanda rumors have not been confirmed yet. I am still waiting, as you all are, because I honestly don't know what's going on. In other news, I'm talking Jessi Draper's appearance on "Call Her Daddy" podcast as well as the most recent revelation that she kissed SLOMV's Miranda's ex-husband, Chase. We need a camera ASAP in Utah because the fact they are still paused right now is beyond me. It's not a good week for T...
Welcome to the pod and welcome to Toxic Tuesday. In this episode, we are spending a good amount on all of the latest with MomTok AKA Taylor Frankie Paul, The Bachelorette, and what this means for Bachelor Nation. Taylor Frankie Paul's DV video was played (trigger warning), and it did not look good. I also talk about Dakota's intentions with releasing the video right before she has a huge premiere, is it a coincidence or just evil? In other news, I am also breaking down Kandi and Todd's ...
Welcome to the pod and welcome to another episode of Toxic Tuesday. In this episode, the Utah girls are being toxic AF, specifically Taylor Frankie Paul, and Dakota. Season 4 of SLOMW is out, and it's already better than last season. The less I hear about Marciano and Vanderpump Villa, the better. In other news, Southern Hospitality's Grace Lily was arrested again, and it looks like it happened a week ago. I also talk about all the nicknames Black Twitter is giving Jack Harlow after his album...
Welcome to part two of What's the Reality on America's Next Top Model. Unfortunately, I had audio issues, which I was able to fix for audio-only listeners, but not the YouTubers, so there isn't a video for this episode, which sucks because my makeup was so tea after work. Anyways, in part one, we talked about the birth of ANTM, Tyra Banks' career, and some other details before I dived into the documentary. Now that I have watched the documentary, I have finally formed a true opinion on ...
Welcome back to the pod! I am back for Toxic Tuesday after a much-needed vacation, and what didn't I miss? First, I must share my condolences to Mary Cosby for Robert Jr. and this awful tragedy! Definitely praying for Mary. In other headlines, Rihanna's home shooting details and why these parasocial relationships need to be stopped immediately. Next, I dive into the RHOA trailer and whether it was giving Love and Hip Hop (it was not). Dr. Wendy and Eddie Osefo have some trial upda...
Welcome to the pod and to another episode of Toxic Tuesday. In this episode, I dive into the mess that has been the BAFTA Awards and how Black History Month has been less rewarding than before, given its historic 100-year run. They really are playing with us, from Ryan Coogler's speech being censored when he said "Free Palestine" to Tourettes being used as an excuse by the masses... a true disappointment. In other news, at least the Met Gala theme was announced: Fashion is Art. I also get int...
America’s Next Top Model premiered in May 2003 and was a reality show competition series based on finding America’s next top model, literally. The competition series would feature women from all over, from Kansas City to New York, and select 10-13 typical women, whipping them into modeling shape over the course of 12 weeks, with looming eliminations each episode. The show’s popularity really began to rise with higher stakes and more incentives by Cycle 3. It was a true pop culture phenomenon....
Welcome to the pod and welcome to another episode of Toxic Tuesday! In this episode, there is a lot of reali(tea) to discuss. From Kandi Burruss kicking Todd to the curb (quite literally) to Jill Zarin being fired after her racist rant video, I mean, it was totally "uncool." In addition, Loverboy is allegedly in serious debt after Summer House revealed that Kyle had to put $500K into the brand and take himself off salary. After I briefly talk about Summer House, I get into the epic RHOP reuni...
Welcome to the pod and welcome to another episode of Toxic Tuesday. In this episode, I am discussing Bad Bunny's Super Bowl performance, which truly made a statement for America and was iconic. I also get into the whos that critiqued the performance from Jill Zarin to Chris Brown. Chris Brown, I know you are not talking. Jill Zarin's latest statement makes me wonder if OG RHONY will be making any comeback. In addition, it looks like Cardi B and Steffon Diggs broke up either during the SuperBo...
Welcome to the pod and welcome to another episode of Toxic Tuesday. In this episode, the reali(tea) topics are nonstop from Don Lemon's unjust arrest, to The Grammys keeping ICE out, OG RHONY gracing our screens very soon, and Ray J apparently only having a year left to live -- I hope that isn't the truth. In other reali(tea) news, my recent obsession with "His and Hers" and "The Bear" has led to watching "Tell Me Lies." For recaps, I am diving into The Valley, Persian Style; the RHOSLC three...
Welcome to the pod and welcome to another episode of Toxic Tuesday. In this episode, I am talking all the latest from the TikTok major tweaks over the weekend and still today, Kyle Richards calling Ashley Darby weird, Kanye West's latest apology in a paid ad with the Wall Street Journal, I didn't even know that was a thing, and so many more reali(tea) topics. I also get into this RHOP reunion looks. I honestly was not impressed besides MISS PAM OLIVER, and of course, a much-needed recap...
Michael Rapaport was recently on the latest season of The Traitors, and if you aren’t a watcher of Housewives or a sitcom lover, then you probably have no clue who this man is. But his recent appearance on The Traitors proved to be everything plus treacherous. Apparently, Michael Rapaport has a very uncanny fanbase, and the people really cannot stand him. I’m doing a deep dive into why Michael Rapaport is so hated, covering everything from his past, including the Jane Magazine exposé on Natas...
Welcome to the pod and welcome to another episode of Toxic Tuesday. I had to hop on the mic for a brief segment before regular programming to talk about the latest Bravo news: Summer House's Amanda and Kyle's separation. Perhaps, the biggest news, though, to come from the weekend is Nene Leakes returning home to Bravo after a whole lawsuit. I mean, this just tells me OG RHONY will be back... fingers crossed. Then I discuss RHOP and the running water issue, and Married to Medicine is mai...
Welcome to the pod, and welcome to another Toxic Tuesday episode. In this episode, I am discussing the latest breakup drama: Kristy Scott filing for divorce against Desmond Scott; and Love Island UK’s beloved most fly couple, Indiyah and Dami, breaking up after Indiyah allegedly cheated on Dami with a streamer named Marlon. What goes on in the Twitch universe? I also talk about the Golden Globes, and yes, Olandria was there. In addition, I share my final thoughts on the RHOSLC season and fina...
Welcome to Part 2 of What’s the Reality on What the Reality: Jersey Shore. I know it’s been a while, but my schedule has been completely off since the holidays! In part one, I really deep-dive’d into the origins of Jersey Shore and where they found the original members of the all-star cast from New York to the Shore. I also talked about how Jersey Shore was supposed to be an all-male cast. In part two, we are going to close out the deep dive on Jersey Shore with an examination of the fr...
Welcome, welcome, welcome to the pod and welcome to another episode of Toxic Tuesday. In this episode, Ashley Tisdale is breaking up with her toxic mom's friend group, and I cannot believe Hilary Duff is in it?? Not my girl. I am also talking about Love Island stans taking it too far this time and ordering a hit on Nic for New Year's Eve... what is seriously going on with the world? In addition, a much-needed recap of the Mary Cosby docu-series (spoiler alert), and, to close out the episode, ...
Welcome to the pod and welcome to this very special Toxic Tuesday. This episode counts down the biggest headlines that have captivated audiences and taken over social media feeds, from Beyoncé finally winning AOTY at the Grammys to Kandi and Todd recently announcing their separation. The headlines are nonstop and cover everything iconic and just crazy this year. I also rank my MVPs and LVPs for reality stars from the Bravo universe to the VH1 world... let's just say you want to be an MVP. In ...
Ho-ho-ho! MERRY CHRISTMASSSS! Welcome to the pod and welcome to this epic rewind episode. I am bringing you a sizeable episode combining episode one and two of the never-ending saga that is Candiace and Monique. The girls have been indirectly feuding after Monique's recent statements about her friendship with Candiace and her appearance on the current season of RHOP, so let's dive into their crazy friendship fallout that led up to the crazy barn fight. These episodes were initially publ...
