Kylie Jenner Denies Plastic Surgery
In an interview with the Wall Street Journal, Kylie recently denied that she’s had any work done on her face, and that it’s all just fillers:
"I’ve never touched my face, but just even getting my breasts done when I was 19 and getting pregnant soon after, not obviously planning to be pregnant at 19."
First of all, what is Kylie Jenner doing getting interviewed by the Wall Street Journal lmao. Is that not meant to be a more highbrow publication? But I digress. I love this ridiculous loophole that celebrities/influencers have all agreed upon wherein “having work done” means having SURGERY performed on your face. Whoever invented “California sober” is loving this. But no, sorry — if you’re getting fillers in your cheeks, lips, jawline, etc., you are having work done.
Also, even if one were to allow for that caveat, Kylie has clearly had plastic surgery. I’m not an expert so I’ll refrain from getting too into it, but let’s just say the nose knows.
Also, this dumbass line:
“My daughter has totally taught me a lot more about myself, and seeing myself in her has changed everything. I’ve had so much growth and am just embracing natural beauty.”
“Embracing natural beauty” PLEASEEE. The only thing this woman is “embracing” is her injector/dermatologist. Which is totally fine — we’re all entitled to do whatever we want with our faces/bodies, and honestly she looks great — but also don’t pull the wool over our heads and tell us you’re embracing your natural body as you’re sitting there with enough botox in your face to kill a baby elephant.
RHONY reunion
Part one of an extreeeemely tepid Real Housewives of New York reunion aired this week, & here are my thoughts:
STOP TALKING ABOUT CHEESE. Like, there is nothing to be gained from this cheese conversation. Even if Sai did complain about Jenna only offering cheese (which tbh she probably did, knowing how she loves complaining about food for no reason) is that really such a crime? It speaks to how low the stakes are on this reboot that cheese-gate is even a conversation to be had.
I’m not exactly sure what’s going on with Ubah lmao. It’s very much giving “I’m trying to stir up drama and secure my spot on the next season,” but honestly I appreciate Ubah at least putting forth the effort. Also, why did they just skip right by her comment about the cast not wanting Jenna on this season?! Hello, that is more enticing conversation than CHEESE
Although I generally love Jessel, I’m of two minds on the issue of Jessel’s sex life. First of all, huge props to Jessel for being open about something that is *actually* embarrassing to share. Let’s be honest, it’s really not ‘brave’ to share bad things that have happened to you in the past — like, it’s very sad that Jenna’s mom wasn’t the warmest lady on the planet, but no one’s going to judge Jenna for having an emotionally distant parent. Talking about a flaw in your marriage, on the other hand, invites judgment and disdain. It’s something people can actually look down on you for. With that in mind, it’s pretty impressive that Jessel was willing to share that aspect of her relationship, since I highly doubt she’s the only one on that cast who has an imperfect marriage. At the same time, Jessel lovers (a group to which I pertain) need to accept that it is not THAT normal for a couple to go a year and a half without being intimate, and people are going to talk about it behind your back, ESPECIALLY since you put it out there— this is Real Housewives, helloooo.
Hopefully this issue has been put to bed — it’s been annoying as hell to watch the other housewives (particularly Sai/Erin) feign sympathy and be all “we gotta get this girl laid!!!” Please, yall are loving this.
I am so sorry, Jenna’s mom being emotionally distant is not a sob story; and if we must talk about sob stories during the reunion, let’s maybe pivot to Brynn and Sai (whose mother, it can’t be overstated, drank herself to death).
Brynn is like a slightly less toxic Brandi Glanville & I just know she has it in her to save this show. Throw a glass of wine at someone, Brynn!! SAVE US
This season was underwhelming. It’s insane to me that this is effectively the first season of a new Housewives franchise and the “blowout” fight this season was about Erin stealing Ubah’s phone for 45 minutes as a prank. And then this reunion was even worse than the actual season!
Next season, they should obviously keep Jessel (hilarious) Brynn (toxic…and hilarious). Erin & Ubah can also stay — Erin has the nice NY lifestyle as well as the Hamptons house where they can take cast trips. Ubah has none of those things, but she’s consistently shown that she’s not afraid to actually get into a fight with people, which is sorely needed on this reboot. Jenna…yes, I get it, she should stay because people like her, but ughhhh she rubs me the wrong way with her whining. I just don’t think she’s that meek in real life, as Ubah pointed out. And Sai can GTFO with her hungry self.
RHOBH Premier
Sorry y’all, I can’t help that there are a lot of Bravo shows on lol. The first episode of Season 13 of Beverly Hills just dropped — my thoughts below:
Kyle
I love Kyle. I am so sorry. I know she gives nothing, but she’s literally a top tier housewife for me lmao. I would love nothing more than to befriend one of her daughters, go over to that GORGEOUS house of theirs, and then immediately ditch the daughter and spend the entire day gossipping with Kyle over that big ass marble kitchen island. With that in mind, it was SO SAD seeing that awkward moment between her and Mauricio. In all these seasons, I don’t think we’ve seen so much as a squabble
Yes, I know, people are saying the Mauricio issue might be staged. I try to just take stuff at face value when it comes to reality TV, because it’ll just drive you crazy once you start second-guessing everything – it becomes (at least for me) detrimental to the viewing experience.
Dorit
Dorit has been annoying me for a minute. Essentially, I feel like she’s contributed a lot to the show sucking in recent years by always protecting her fellow “core” Housewives, while also never contributing anything to the show’s success (fake accents and ridiculous outfits can only do so much). That being said, tonight was a good start for her IMO. That Erika impression was hilarious and the Ozempic jab (no pun intended) was appreciated. I feel like Dorit has secretly never liked Erika, so it’d be nice to see her maybe lean into that a bit more this season (a great way to get on my good side is to hate Erika).
Last season everybody treated Dorit with kid gloves because of of the robbery. Now that that’s out of the way, she’s got to do something this season (not to be soulless but like…they are paid for this, it’s a job lol)
I get so much financial anxiety watching Dorit in that house/wearing those clothes, knowing she’s subsisting off a Bravo paycheck and PK’sinvisible job. I imagine the IRS is building a case against her as we speak lmao.
No Lisa Rinna
THANK YOU JESUS
Erika
In my fantasy world, they would have kicked Erika off along with Rinna. I appreciate that she brought the fraud plotline for the last couple of seasons, but she’s annoying as hell and is a big part of the “we protect each other” squad that has led to the show’s decline in quality as of late. Also, she’s evil, so there’s that to keep in mind. It’ll be nice to see her without Lisa Rinna constantly protecting her, but I feel as though the time for that was more while she was going through all the Tom lawsuits.
THE OZEMPIC OMG. I obviously knew her and Kyle had both lost a lot of weight, but Erika is tinyyyyy
Erika has this really weird schtick where she overdoes the cold thing bc she clearly loves being thought of as this aloof ice princess or what have you. Like, with her therapist – you don’t have to pretend like you don’t understand the concept of empathy lol. We get it, you’re soo emotionless. Gtfo. Ugh, I do not like her lmao.
Sutton
Loveeee Sutton although IDK what the hell she’s talking about with this whole wanting to be a self made woman schtick. She kind of said it all herself when she said only an idiot would take themselves off spousal support
Garcelle
Garcelle and Kyle share this quality where, when you see them with their respective families, you can really tell they’re amazing moms. I will say, her talk with her son was kind of heartbreaking. Like damn, he really didn’t have to eviscerate her like that lmao
Crystal
Crystal did nothing this episode. She still really hasn’t had any great Housewife moments and I think her days are numbered tbh. Which, honestly, is fine. I always forget that when these people get “fired” they just go back to being married and (sometimes) rich, so I’ll save my tears for someone else lmao
Emily Blunt Controversy
Emily Blunt recently came under fire for comments regarding a waitress’ weight that she made in an interview from 2012 (!!!!) in which she called the waitress “enormous” and made fun of her Southern accent:
