BEHIND THE VELVET ROPE

Homeless Not Toothless! We attended this epic charity event this past Saturday at The Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills. The entire cast of RHOBH was in attendance as it was filmed for an upcoming episode on Season Thirteen which premieres later this year. Of course we chatted with all your fav diamond holders - Erika, Kyle, Crystal, Garcelle, Sutton, newbie Annemarie and last, but certainly not least, master of ceremonies, Dorit. Today we share all that happened at this event, discuss the rumored drama that occurred, spill the tea on MC Paula Abdul and celeb guests such as Sharon Stone, William H. Macy, Taylor Dayne, break down Josh Flagg’s late arrival and dish on everything in between such as asking to smoke the good stuff in the bathroom with Mauricio. Yea, it was that kind of a night.

With the new season of RHOBH filming, we break down all the cameos, return Diamond Holders and potential newbies. Of course we know a thing or two about rumored newbie Annemarie Wiley, her NFL Legend Husband Marcellus Wiley, the viral video circulating which seems to insinuate she has had problems with the OG herself Kyle Richards and why none of the past Diamond holders are likely to make much of an impact when the show returns. In other RHOBH news, we share a Kathy, Kyle, Kim Richards Hilton update and deep dive Mauricio’s new book, series of interviews, return of Buying Beverly Hills and why it seems he is closer to Lisa Rinna and Harry Hamlin than Kathy and Rick Hilton. Finally, we cannot help but gush over Faye Resnick’s recent night out in Beverly Hills where we were all at Craigs, Kyle Richards in tow. @thesarahfrasershow @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope BROUGHT TO YOU BY: AIR DOCTOR PRO - airdoctorpro.com (Use Code VELVET for Up To 40% Off Depending On The Model You Choose) FACTOR - factormeals.com/velvet50 (Use Code VELVET50 To Get 50% Off Your First Box) 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.

Jill Zarin. The Woman. The Myth. The Legend. Everyone always asks us where to find the episode that way back, in another lifetime, once caused a riff between Ms. Zarin and ourselves. A riff that has since been talked about, squashed, moved on from and not revisited. Not revisited except for today where we share another classic lost on the back feed. This is the episode which caused national headlines of epic proportion which Ms. Zarin was not pleased with. Now y’all can listen and stop asking where it is on the back feed. Like we said, we have all moved on.

Never judge a book by its cover. When I sat down to prepare for this chat with then Vanderpump Rules newcomer, Charli Burnett, I said what the F am I going to talk to her about. She had been on the screen maybe 5 mins max up to that point. Boy have I never been so wrong. This interview took place right around the time Stassi and Kristen were infamously fired. This chat turned out to be an expose of hazing the new girl by what Charlie called the “mean girls” - Stassi, Kristen, Katie and last, but certainly not least, Jax and LVP’s involvement in it all. The more Charli talked, the more specific examples of mean girl behavior she gave, the more I could move believe my ears.

With all this talk about the RHOC trailer dropping any day now, we figured it was a great time to share this hidden gem from our back feed with Heather and Terry Dubrow. Right before Heather announced she was returning to RHOC, we sat down with both and of course asked, “would you ever return?” Were the clues here, did she know, did they know they were soon going to sell Chateau Dubrow and most important of all, how excited are y’all for the return of RHOC and Tamra Judge. Of course, with Terry in tow, we talk all about Botched as well as that other brilliant, classic Reality TV show he was a part of, The Swan. @heatherdubrow @dr.dubrow @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope BROUGHT TO YOU BY: RELIEFBAND - reliefband.com (20% Off Plus Free Shipping.

Before we get to today’s regularly scheduled RHONJ recap, Kim D. comes in hot to chat about all the real life drama happening with The Gorgas - and other cast members - in the real world. With The Gorgas serving Bravo Bloggers with Cease and Desist Orders, being asked by Bravo to “gag” what they say and stop the toxic interviews and being subjected to and faced with a Change.org on line petition to “Fire Melissa Gorga”, Kim shares her hot takes on whether Melissa is acting scared knowing it is the last season of her $1.5 million dollar paycheck or a smart business woman just trying to protect her financial future. With rumored friendship break ups all over the Garden State and Big Apple, Kim turns her attention to one of the most awkward episodes in Housewives History a la Luis Ruelas, a $250K business deal steeped in delusion and bad math and, once again, two newbies Cabral and Fuda who have come correct to play, who mean business and who have already made their lasting impression on fans worldwide in just a few short episodes. With a jam packed week, let us cue the music and begin our weekly Sat chat with the only and only, Miss Kim D! @kimdposche @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef Full Episode At: https://www.patreon.com/posts/80726894/edit Learn more about your ad choices.

Raquel Leviss has us confused. Normally we can read people from here til Sunday but Raquel remains a mystery to us. As our good friend Lala Kent says, “you cannot be dumb and smart at the same time”. On that note, we share our hot takes on whether Raquel is a brilliant mastermind who has manifested her destiny into one of the most recognizable names in Reality TV villain history or a wounded little bird who is a victim of a not ideal upbringing just looking for love, or comfort, in all the wrong places. In addition, we deep dive whether Raquel is scared to go outside and film more Vanderpump Rules’ scenes than the one she already filmed with Sandoval or is purposely holding out for a huge pay day to return next season and / or to attend the sure to be highest rated reunion in VPR history. Finally, taking a break from The Scandoval of it all, we break down all the Real Housewives, Reality TV Stars and Iconic Hollywood legends who have blocked us over the years and explain exactly why.

Taking a momentary break from The Scandoval, now that Brandi Glanville has lawyered up, we analyze her statement, her attorney’s demand for raw footage from Bravo, Caroline Manzo’s response and what this all really means for the future of RHUGT 4 and both Caroline and Brandi in the BravoSphere. We chat the return of RHOC and the trailer which is expected to drop any day soon and whether Tamra Judge’s return and the addition of Taylor Armstrong can save this once stellar franchise.

Everyone’s favorite King, Carlos that is, returns to chat about all that keeps us up at night in the BravoVerse. With Lisa Rinna out of RHOBH, we look ahead to next season - what will the franchise be like without Lisa, who will step forward and take the much needed villain role, will Rinna ever admit she was terminated, allegedly, and last, but certainly not least, where and when will Kathy Hilton enter the picture and start filming this new season. Heading east, we chat RHONY - Legacy & Reboot and break down why Alex McCord really returned to the Bravo World to film RHUGT 4 and what we can expect from this “wild card” when and if the much publicized fourth installment ever makes its way to be seen. Finally, Carlos weighs in on what we expect to be Melissa Gorga’s last season, discusses why Teresa is really a changed woman these days, why the decade old Tre vs Mel feud is finally over and where RHONJ goes moving forward.

With all this Scandoval talk, we cannot help but reminisce about the early days of Vanderpump Rules. Reminiscing about the early days of VPR makes us reminisce about the early days of Bravo which makes us reminisce about many of the early gone, but not forgotten, Bravo shows. One of those shows is Real Housewives of DC. Today we share this gem from our back catalogue with one of the five RHODC cast members, Mary Amons. Mary chats about her time on the show, cast mates and the difficulties of casting a show with wives in the political sector. Of course, the conversation turns to the infamous Salahi White House crash and the implications, not only for them, but the entire Real Housewives of DC cast, franchise and Bravo as a network from this one event. Did you know RHODC production was shut down for several weeks while Congress and The White House launched a thorough investigation into this breach of US security. Luckily the show went on, bringing us 5 amazing women who have earned their place in Housewives history as one of the only Bravo shows ever involved in a nationwide political scandal.

The BravoVerse, mainstream media and world seem to want to talk about nothing else but this breakup twenty four hours a day, seven days a week. We could not think of anyone better than the man who has not only been there since Season One, Episode One of Vanderpump Rules and has worked at Sur since before the Bravo cameras descended, but who has also dated Raquel himself to stop by, take a shot or two of vodka - he does - and give us an up close an personal seat to a the scandal heard around the world. Peter deep dives how we got here, discusses his own relationships with all parties involved, the many public statements from Tom and Raquel and constant news tabloid fodder, some true, much very false, filling our DMs and IG feeds night and day. Peter shares updates from LVP, shares his hot takes on Kristen Doute’s return, talks Schwartz’s tough predicament, analyzes Lala, James and Scheana’s reactions and what this all means for the rest of this season - cameras are rolling - of Vanderpump Rules and future of this ever changing top Bravo show that many counted out apparently way, way too soon. THE episode you have been waiting all last week for has finally arrived!!!!!!!!! @peter_madrigal @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope BROUGHT TO YOU BY: DRIZLY - drizly.com (Buy Beer, Wine & Liquor All From One Website) OUAI - theouai.com (15% Off Your Entire Purchase.

Everyone always asks us what our favorite interviews of all time are. The answer is always the same. Since we interview so many people a week, it is always changing! That said, THIS chat with Mob Wives’ Karen Gravano is one of our absolute favorites. NO question was off limits! For all who have missed this epic chat, we share it here today! Wasting no time, David & Karen delve right in to her childhood and the moment she realized her life was “different" than that of others based, in part, on a murder outside one of her father's, Sammy The Bull’s, nightclubs. Other than a few other factors which tipped Karen off to the fact that this wasn’t how many families lived, Karen discusses her “normal” (for lack of a better word) childhood - dating, friends, having a “cousin" whose family the Donnie Brasco movie was based on. After discussing the definition of important words such as “Mafia”, “Loyalty" and “Rat”, Karen and David talk about “The Gotti Tapes”, the domino effect fall out that thereafter followed, and the subsequent end of the relationship between Gotti and Sammy The Bull. David and Karen analyze the Mob lifestyle and all that comes along with it - the made guys, competing families and, at the end of the day, family togetherness and love. Tune in to Part 1 of Behind The Velvet Rope’s very special sit down with Karen Gravano. @karengravano @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope BROUGHT TO YOU BY: DRIZLY - drizly.com (Buy Beer, Wine & Liquor All From One Website) OUAI - theouai.com (15% Off Your Entire Purchase.

Tom and Ariana broke up. The BravoVerse, mainstream media and world seem to want to talk about nothing else but this breakup twenty four hours a day, seven days a week. Although we do not necessarily agree with that sentiment, Kim D. helps us break down all the events which led up to this break up, Tom and Raquel’s recent “formal” statements, the reaction of Vanderpump cast members, Andy Cohen and LVP, the “revenge porn” ban, cease and desist letters, retraining orders and last, but certainly not least, what this means for the future of VPR and true possibility of past cast members Jax, Stassi and or Kristen returning - yes rumors are Kristen is in talks. Moving on, Kim breaks down this week’s episode, shares her updated thoughts on newbies Cabral and Fuda, has a message for Marge involving Siggy and names her MVP and Messy Boots of this week’s RHONJ. Finally, as part of her ReWife, thank you Bethenny Frankel, Kim breaks down Season Two, Episode One. Seeing as this episode is her official RHONJ premiere, we have a lot to say to Miss D. whose freshman appearance was shady AF and in true Rope fashion, we have no problem calling out our regular Sat Dutchess for all of her messiness.
