The good people at Bravo sent me this clip of Bethenny doing her favorite Jill Zarin impersonation. It goes on too long, but it certainly has its funny moments. I particularly like when Bethenny calls out “AAAAALLLLIEE!!!!” I think that will never get old. Although, I think it goes without saying that Kelly Killoren Bensimon …

'American Idol' Does Motown, Mustaches
Cold Hearted Whiskers. Motown Week: that most hallowed of occasions on American Idol. It’s supposed to bring watershed moments with its wide variety of classic tunes, but invariably this theme never fails to produce the most karaoke-ish collection of performances year after year. I actually groan when I find out the singers will be doing …
Finally, a 'Real Housewives' and 'American Idol' Crossover
“Bobbbby, do you see me and Aaaalllliee behind Ryyyyyan???” Guess who was in the American Idol audience tonight? If you answered “Olivia Newton John and her strange daughter,” you’d be correct. But who cares about them? I’m more interested in Real Housewives of New York City’s Jill Zarin and her daughter Allie, who appeared quietly …

The Inevitable Nene / Denene Collaboration Looms
“I’m writing a book! It’ll be like BAM! Nene Carol Oates.” Big news in the publishing industry! Nene Leakes of The Real Housewives of Atlanta will be penning a book titled Never Make the Same Mistake Twice: Straight Talk on Love and Life From a Real Housewife. Details of the tome are murky, but I …

HOUSEWIVES PHOTOCAP: The Socializer Emerges!
Kelly: “You know what would be great? A fashion show with all arthritic models. It would be so cute.” It took a few weeks, but we finally got a taste of Kelly Killoren Bensimon’s personality on The Real Housewives of New York City, and overall, it was kind of awful. She’s not particularly mean (so …

Welcome Back, Nate
“Huh?” A funny thing happened on the way to the Upper East Side last night: the writers of Gossip Girl decided to do something with Nate for once. That’s right, the woeful Vanderbilt heir finally got to do something more than just make out with awful Vanessa or moan about tomatoes. He had a whole …
Kim Zolciak Bails On Her Own Charity. Possible Fake Cancer Scare The Fake Culprit?
Here’s a nice little nugget about our favorite cancer almost-haver survivor. I’m talking about Kim Zolciak, the woman who puts the K in Kat, the rock in guacamole, the tight in tightrope. If that made little sense, fear not  it was jibber-jabber, which is what happens to the brain when talking about Kimmy Z. …
And Now A Special Message From 'The Real World'
Drunkenness + reality stars x political activism = hilarity. Take this clip, which features JD (a.k.a. this season’s gay dolphin trainer a.k.a. Gaydolph) from Real World Brooklyn. He’s got a bad case of Obamamania, and he’s not afraid to talk about it. Caution: some foul language (and anti-Palin vulgarities).
THE CITY PHOTOCAP: Miss Independent
Well, the first season of The City came to a close this week, which means we’ll have to wait quite a bit before we can see the likes of Whitney or Allie or Olivia on our screens again. I’m kind of bummed because after enjoying the perils of Manhattan, it might be hard to switch …
CAN NO ONE SEE HOW BAD SCOTT MACINTYRE IS???
I’m slowly entering the “astounded” phase of American Idol. I think we all know it  that incredulous four or five week span in which some blatantly outclassed singer somehow advances farther and farther in the singing competition as more talented folks drop by the wayside. Sanjaya remains the poster boy of such ridiculousness, but …
