Erika's glam squad is ridiculous. Who holds up outfits to wear and announces the designers? CLEARLY that is done to impress the audience. First, Erika knows what was packed. Second, a normal person would hold up two outfits and say, "This one?" or maybe "This one or this one?" No one holds up items and says, "The Versace?" Erika also looks ridiculous in the pigtails in her narrator scenes. This is a grown woman. Finally, when it broke to the narrator scene when she was talking about how proud she was of Lisa R. after their walk in Tokyo and how she realizes that time with your girls is fleeting...I wanted to gag. THis is a woman who didn't raise her own kid, presumably...how does she know about fleeting time with kids!?!?

Finally, whomever slick Lisa R's hair back in her narrator testimonials should be shot. I'd rather have the same 'do forever than that. Yuck.

When you think that just approx 1000 miles away, there are people in Puerto Rico still without lights and running water, maybe they could give up their glam squad for a year and instead support a family or two. Imagine that!

I will be the first to snark on the show but it is real housewives of beverly hills not real volunteers of the red cross.

TBH, you really do describe items by the designer- especially when working with the gays. The designer is a big part of the feeling/look.

Stop it with "the gays." This isn't the early 2000s, they aren't your pets, they are people. You aren't so wonderfully open-minded because you collect "gays."

It's supposed to be guilt-free aspirational programming. We are supposed to want to live the life of excess.

Honestly the biggest thing I am embarrassed about is not the conspicuous consumption (you can, after all, tell the pretenders) but is watching grown women fight. I avoid that crap IRL so there's a lot of fast-forwarding. My 6 yr old dd walked in one night when I was watching and when I realized she was out of bed and watching over my shoulder I paused it and she croaked out in her whiskey voice "THESE ARE HORRIBLE WOMEN! WHY CAN'T THEY GET ALONG?" and I was like "I know, right??"

I'm the one you quoted. I understand. I don't collect people but when the gays refer to themselves as the gays I don't argue, either. I don't call anyone that if they don't already say it.

Ugh, thank you. I think the people who use "the gays" are much worse than people who don't even accept homosexuality.

Thank you right back! I totally agree. Both people who are homophobic and faux-liberal people who use terms like "the gays" are guilty of the same things--treating homosexuals as interchangeable oddities, not as individual human beings, and lumping them into stereotypes. Whether you call someone a "f*g" and paint them as good decorators/effeminate/fashionistas or call someone "a gay" and characterize them the same way, you are taking away their humanity, their agency and their individuality. It's not cute, it's not edgy, JUST STOP.

ur preaching to the choir and I'm the one who initially said 'the gays'.

I've reiterated your point of view so many times with people and never realized how annoying I sounded. So. Stop. It. With your faux pearl-clutching. Which is actually worse. Done.

Erika is a joke, she is an actual embarrassment with a sham of a marriage, she is so desperate for attention. Shame on her, she abandoned her only child to go money grubbing. Sad.

I stopped watching after she came on, every now and then i tune in but the obscene display of conspicuous consumption is stomach turning. And who, not even most celebs have a glam squad on call?

I would be embarrassed to admit I need that much help. Sad state of affairs.

And on the topic of Camille, she actually always came off to me as the decent one, not vulgar, crass or loud, does not need to shout to be noticed and always seemed lie a real lady. Do me a favor and don't bash the only decent one on the show.

NP. No, you really do need to stop with "the gays." It's horrible and was a passe phrase even five years ago.

You are a total snowflake lif I ever heard one… Did you actually just say what I think you said ? Guilt free aspirational programming? Please spare me… I can assure you that any educated intelligent woman with an ounce of sophistication would never aspire to any of this garbage !

Erika's son lives with her. He obviously likes her and wants to be near her -- otherwise he would rent or buy a place and live alone. People need to stop making it sound like she's a horrible parent. She's not.

Well, yeah, gee, you think maybe her son wants to live with his bajillionaire stepdad and mom, or at least on their property? You don't think there are any benefit$ he'd be after with that arrangement, besides making up for lost time with the mother who abandoned him when he was 3?
