Last night I watched the second hour of the 2 part Real Housewives of New York City Reunion Show.If I was looking for moments of entertainment watching Kelly get her comeuppance, I think I'm disappointed. That woman is so confused, conflicted, contradictory and convoluted, it's not amusing to witness, instead it made me uncomfortable. Clearly, she either has had some brain damage or is suffering from some mental illness, which one viewer asked about during the reunion, as in, "Are you mentally ill?'
One minute Kelly is saying she and Bethenny are totally different, repeating this several times. Then a few minutes later Kelly is saying she and Bethenny should have been friends, because they are so much alike! And then she got totally baffling by saying she and Bethenny were so much alike because Bethenny is a brunette and "I'm a blonde!"
After claiming to be a blonde Kelly was confused for a bit and then went right on saying more stupid stuff.
The Bravo host for these type shows, Andy Cohen, I think is his names, to put it bluntly, sucks.
When the clips were shown of Kelly making a total ass of herself with Bethenny, the scenes that convinced the viewers that Kelly was mentally ill, why did Andy not ask Kelly if watching those scenes was embarrassing to her? Kelly's answer would surely have been bizarre.
Countess LuAnn came out of the shoutfest looking good, I thought. As did Jill and Bethenny. But the one who really came out the best, and got to least air time, was Alex. She's the most articulate of these women. And the least prone to yell. And when she tried to dissect and translate the Kelly-speak into English and to interpret for Kelly, Bethenny's reaction to Kelly's behavior, well, it made Alex appear to be the wise one of the group.
Among the many strange things about Kelly is that she seems to have zero self-awareness. Even as she is shown examples of her behavior, and even when, during the Reunion Show, she does the same dismissive, rude, contradictory, aggravating nonsense that the women are trying to get Kelly to understand offputs them, right when they are trying to wise her up, Kelly just goes into a weird "none of this matters to me" mode.
I've known a person like Kelly. They can not be changed. They will never get what you are telling them. Please, don't have her back for the next round of the Real Housewives of New York City. She is not funny, we don't like her, we don't want to see her fabulous life on our TV screens.
I forgot to mention. Ramona is nuts, but strangely, in a loveable sort of way. And why does she bug her eyes out like that? And how rude for LuAnn to comment on the bug eyes. Rude, but funny.
