You’d think after allowing cameras into their lives for so many years, Real Housewives cast members would realize that anything they say in the vicinity of a camera crew is being recorded. And yet, every season, we get an unsuspecting housewife (or husband, or father) saying something they really shouldn’t, just when they thought the cameras had stopped rolling. From Barbara announcing that LuAnn “can’t really sing” (while at LuAnn’s cabaret show) to LeeAnne Locken’s baffling carnival talk at a doctor’s office, these are the moments that made us—and the boom operators—gasp, stand up, and clap our hands. I mean, they’re just hands... but they work quite well.
