Real Housewives Reunion: Kim (Fake?) Cries About Fake Hair

Last night's Real Housewives of Atlanta reunion was all about NeNe and Kim. Shereé stayed relatively quiet, DeShawn barely said three words, and Lisa managed to keep her cool right up until the end when she couldn't take Kim's lying anymore. When Kim was asked about her hair, she turned on the waterworks and told some story about how it's so mean that NeNe made fun of her wig, because she had cancer. Then, when pressed about it, her story changed and she said that she only thought she had cancer and that she was just really sick and her hair fell out. Except that hair only falls out when you go through treatment for cancer, not when you "think" you have cancer. Bravo must renew this show for another season, and fast. Clip above.

The Real Housewives Of Atlanta Represent The Crass Consumerism That Is Ruining Our Country

The Real Housewives of Atlanta — made up mostly of women who are wives of athletes — are the shallowest, bitchiest, and most materialistic we've seen in this Bravo series. All of them act like the girls you see on MTV's My Super Sweet 16 — demanding designer labels, extravagant birthday cakes, and fully loaded Escalades — but perhaps the most disgusting is Shereé, who talks about how much "class" she has, which is a sure sign she doesn't have any. She's the ex of some athlete, and she is fighting him for money so that she can continue to maintain her lifestyle, which includes an extensive staff (personal assistant, chef, and publicist) and buying $3,500 handbags that look like you can get them for a tenth of the price at Joyce Leslie. She also thinks that "men are intimidated by successful women," interesting only because I didn't realize that "success" is measured by how much you can take your ex-husband for. Clip above.
