Heather Thomson steps Behind The Rope. With RHONY RHUGT airing, we cannot help but wonder, if not for Heather’s RHONY Season 13 appearance and producer edit and manipulation, would she have been the sixth apple holder instead of Kristen Taekman? Checking in from her Berkshires home, Heather is here to tell it all. Let us start at the beginning, Season Five of The Real Housewives of New York City. Heather discusses what it was like back in the day in the groundbreaking season when the first ever major cast shake up took place seeing several OG’s be replaced by a new crop (along with Aviva Drescher and Carole Radziwill). Heather chats about what it was like to film having never really watched the show and what it was like to be “inducted” by The Singer Stinger. Heather discusses just how far The Housewives Franchise has come from and how social media now plays a huge role, for better or worse, in the show and the drama that goes along with being a Real Housewife. Heather discusses some of the most iconic moments that took place during her tenure on RHONY such as “Take a Xanax”, “Be Cool, Don’t Be All Uncool”, and that infamous Le Cirque Leg Toss. We touch upon Heather’s final season as a full time cast member, the introduction of one Dorinda Medley and the return of one Bethenny Frankel. Heather opens up about how the presence of Bethenny Frankel on set changed the mood and vibe and how the women really reacted behind the scenes to her return and the advice she has for Bethenny who, maybe, does “know it all”.

Kato Kaelin steps back Behind The Rope. The man. The myth. The legend. Where to being when sitting down with a man whose narrative has been created, crafted, discussed, dissected and analyzed by the media to the nth degree without ever taking the time to sit down and chat with the man himself.

Lisa D’Amato, from America’s Next Top Model, steps Behind The Rope. Holding nothing back, Lisa is here to tell it all. Did someone say Bethenny Frankel and Reality Reckoning? Looking back at this blast from the past chat, Lisa recalls every single thing Bethenny is now talking about loudly. Lisa chats about what living in the model house was really like, the competitiveness of her fellow model contestants and the pressure she felt from producers while filming. She chats about ANTM judges Miss J, Nigel Barker, Twiggy and last, but certainly not least, Janice Dickinson as well as about Creative Director Jay Manuel. Lisa confirms and debunks many of the vicious rumors heard over the years about the tension on the set and the “my way or the highway” rumored attitude of Tyra Banks. Leaving no detailed spared, Lisa explains how she felt she was treated by Tyra and Producers, the good, the bad, the other. There was a lot of bad and a lot of other. We discuss! Of course there was also her product pitch on Shark Tank, where she got a deal with the one and only Miss Barbara Corcoran. She takes us behind the scenes of Shark Tank and all the shenanigans taking place behind the scenes off camera. @lisa_damato @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BROUGHT TO YOU BY: GOHENRY - gohenry.com/VELVET (Set Your Kids Up For Success w/ The Best Debit Card & Financial App For Kids 6 to 18) HELLOFRESH - HelloFresh.com/velvetropefree (Use Code velvetropefree For Free Breakfast For Life on America’s #1 Meal Kit) QUINCE - quince.com/velvetrope (Get Free Shipping and 365 Day Returns on Elevated Luxury Without Paying Luxury Prices) INDEED - indeed.com/velvet (Seventy Five Dollar $75 Sponsored Job Credit To Get Your Jobs More Visibility) LIFEMD - lifemd.com/VELVET (Visit lifemd.com/VELVET To Start Your Weight Loss Journey Today) JONES NATURAL CHEWS (Best Natural Treats For Your Dog - Available At a Pet Store Near You) ADVERTISING INQUIRIES - Please contact [email protected] MERCH Available at - https://www.teepublic.com/stores/behind-the-velvet-rope?ref_id=13198 Learn more about your ad choices.

Linda Gray steps Behind The Rope. Yes, Sue Ellen Ewing in the flesh! Linda is here to chat about the full anthology of her career and what it was like to be part of one of the most Iconic shows of all time, Dallas. Linda reminisces about being cast, the early days on set with co-stars such as Larry Hagman, Patrick Duffy, Charlene Tilton and Victoria Principal - to name a few, the highs and lows of Sue Ellen, best and worst storylines for the character, playing drunk and how life changed as a result of Dallas. Linda opens up about leaving the show after twelve seasons, returning for the series finale, being a fan favorite, life after Dallas and the positives and negatives of playing one character for so long. Linda also opens up about her life long friendships with Larry Hagman and Patrick Duffy, the TNT “Dallas Reboot” that ended way too soon, the future of the Dallas legacy and whether another Reboot is looming on the horizon. Of course, there was also that other fav show of ours Linda starred in, Models Inc. Linda chats working on an Aaron Spelling show, playing Heather Locklear’s mother and working with both RHOBH’s Garcelle Beauvais in one of her first full time acting gigs and a then unknown pre-Matrix Carrie-Anne Moss. Thank you Linda. What a fun trip down memory lane regarding one of the best TV characters to ever exist in the history of TV, the one, the only, Miss Sue Ellen Ewing!!!!! @lindagray_ @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope BROUGHT TO YOU BY: VIIA - viiahemp.com (Use Code Velvet For 15% Off + One Free Sample Of Their Sleepy Dreams Gummies. 21+) GOHENRY - gohenry.com/VELVET (Set Your Kids Up For Success w/ The Best Debit Card & Financial App For Kids 6 to 18) HELLOFRESH - HelloFresh.com/velvetropefree (Use Code velvetropefree For Free Breakfast For Life on America’s #1 Meal Kit) QUINCE - quince.com/velvetrope (Get Free Shipping and 365 Day Returns on Elevated Luxury Without Paying Luxury Prices) INDEED - indeed.com/velvet (Seventy Five Dollar $75 Sponsored Job Credit To Get Your Jobs More Visibility) LIFEMD - lifemd.com/VELVET (Visit lifemd.com/VELVET To Start Your Weight Loss Journey Today) WOOGA (Download June’s Journey Now on your iOS or Android Device) ADVERTISING INQUIRIES - Please contact [email protected] MERCH Available at - https://www.teepublic.com/stores/behind-the-velvet-rope?ref_id=13198 Learn more about your ad choices.
