Today I was jumping channels, and I was sucked in for a short time by an atrocious show on Bravo called "The Real Housewives of Atlanta." There was this one woman, Kim, I think, who keeps claiming that she's 29 (just, no. That's a rode hard, put up wet 29 there, honey.) and her super-secret Sugar Daddy is paying for her to become a country singer. Then they subjected us, the viewers, to listening to her sing, over and over, and over.... She's tone-deaf. Everything she sings is flat. Dallas Austin, a producer who should know better, apparently owes the Sugar Daddy big time, because he hasn't just tossed this woman out on her ass, but he did in desperation send her to a vocal coach. (That woman was just thrilled to learn Kim smokes like a chimney and can't find or hold a note.) The coach finally told Kim she doesn't know what she's doing, and she doesn't know how to find her pitch. So Kim just asked how important that was in the studio, really? And then you could practically hear crickets chirping. In the voiceover Kim was bitching that the coach was picking on her because she doesn't know the nuts and bolts of music theory, "But I don't need to know that. I'm a singer."
So, my question is -- does anyone follow this show? Can you tell me if reality ever smacks this woman in the face? Because I don't think I can bring myself to watch it again.
I would totally pick Ondine for my own place.
Totally! I loved all the wallpapers she used. It made me think of that as an option which I never have before. Of course, I'm sure all the ones they used cost oodles.
So, I'm out with my rugby gays enroute to the second bar of the night, and walk past another local bar (Halo for the locals), and this guy walks out who looks familiar. I realize it's Jack from PR Season 4!! I grab the nearest gay and say "oh, my god, is that Jack from Project Runway?!!" He says "I don't know." I roll my eyes, grab a few more gays, and none of them know!!! I stopped in the middle of the sidewalk and said "why do none of the gays in sight watch Project Runway!!" Then, a random boy says "yes, that was him" and I was satisfied.
We go the next bar (JRs), I glance over into the corner and holy shit, it's Rami!!! Apparently, there's some design conference at the Convention center that he was speaking at, so he was in town for the night. I didn't talk to him. I liked his clothes, but wasn't particularly excited by him as a person. If it had been Chris March, I would have been over there professing my love :)
So, nothing exciting, just a sighting. but still!
How fun to have seen both of them.
Aww! And yay, Jack! Was he with anyone?
I don't know. he left with a few people, i was too busy noticing Jack to notice anyone else.
haha stupid divorcees on TAR!
I know!
My God. I mean they're game but they are so incredibly stupid.
D'oh! I thought you were talking about the almost divorced couple!
Speaking of stupid, the frat boys are almost as bad.
