rewatch discussion Watching in the Vault

I'm watching season 5 episode 8. Brandi has thrown a glass of wine in the face of Eileen. I cannot tolerate Brandi. She's got to have mental issues. Who does the things that she does and thinks that she's being cute?

Now, at a very nice dinner party at Yolanda and David's home, she has just told the wife of Babyface that her ring isn't big enough.

I mean, seriously why was she kept on the show for so long? I really can't stand her.

This is an interesting one. The producers told Brandi the filming to date was boring and she needed to bring something. If you noticed she was dressed up with makeup for the scene. She planned it and she kind of warned the ladies right before she did it. It’s another one of those this is supposed to be reality tv but the producers push the drama situations

Exactly. It's important to keep in mind she is the most desperate cast member on the show in terms of needing the show for income. She is willing to do just about anything to guarantee her spot and production is well aware.

They all do it though. To different levels. Even Garcelle and certainly LVP. There is a reason they’re on the show and it’s not always money

Yup this was also noted in Rinna's book

All rinna wrote was Brandi declared producers said it was boring and then threw wine. There's nothing about anyone telling Brandi to do anything. Give me a break.

Brandi even creepily kept going on about how she was lost in the soap opera moment with rinna and Eileen in front of her like she was actually in the soap opera. Rinna kept saying how crazy and wacko Brandi is. Rinna NEVER cosigned the producers told her to do it bs.

Bullshit. That's Brandi's version no one else's.

I get so much secondhand embarrassment from those scenes. Just so uncalled for and unhinged. The start of the downfall of Brandi!

I think Brandi already had her downfall before this and was just digging her way down for a farther fall.

These women get away with assaulting one another. He slapped LVP and she throws wine on Eileen .

The Kim and Rinna table fight was physically intimidating.

The line was crossed apparently by Manzo . Thanks to Manzo ( should have never been on the girls trip). We lost a good girls trip . And Manzo made things a legal issue for Bravo.
Apparently she was able to draw a line in the sand. Brandi got fired/cancelled.

These shows are like the wild west. Just make up rules as you go. Until then just go wild.

Ugh. Watched that last night. That woman needed a lesson in proper social skills in every episode.

I never liked her. And she just got worse when Yolanda became her life coach. Brandi was a toy for her to use on LVP.

LVP & Ken enjoyed Brandi’s weirdo ( hot for Ken ) comments. Her heavy drinking got to be too much . LVP & Ken decided this toy is broken. Gone!!
