Nope, never heard of it. Wow, for a socialite, you would think she'd be cutting hair at a salon either Uptown or in the Garden District.

Maybe by socialite, she means she likes to socialize. Lexi,I was born in New Orleans and lived uptown (Carrollton/Claiborne) until I moved to Metairie when I was 21. Lived here ever since. I've never seen or heard of her place and Aurora Ave. is right close to the Metairie/Orleans parish line. Not a socialite area. I think you are right. She is a socialite in her own mind. Not by true New Orleans standards.

Since we always want to compare the current HG to the past, here is my take without even hearing a word spoken! Wonder how much my list will change after a few weeks? Brian - Will-Boogie combination Angie - Jun Memphis - Roddy April - April Ollie - Marcellus-Beau combination, but straight! Michelle - Amber (I think it's the hair) Jerry - Jack (FBI guy) Libra - Cassandra BB1 (I hope, hope, hope!) Steven - Bunky Renny - Sheryl BB2 Dan - James BB6 & BBAS Keesha - Tonya BB3 Jesse - Ha ha - They found Eric's head and plopped it on Nick's body! Can't wait to see Jesse's 'posing trunks' LOL!

Not that there's anything wrong with Metairie... LOL Hey you know what? Even though I live across the river from NO, I've been known to eat sushi at a couple of restaurants Uptown or in the Garden District. Maybe I could put "New Orleans socialite" on my résumé.

BBlover... to me a true "New Orleans socialite" does not work. In my book, a true New Orleans socialite would be doing a lot of volunteer/charity work (which would obviously involve going to, donating to and/or assisting in putting on, a lot of "social" functions, i.e. Zoo-To-Do, Friends of the Cabildo, etc.)

I wonder where she went to High School, that would tell a lot. You know us New Orleans folks judge your social standing by where you went to High School. If she went to say Scared Heart or Magee, or even Ursaline, she maybe a "semi" socialite. Any other one forget it. I went to Mercy Academy and we didn't produce too many socialites. Well, maybe some like Renny. Who knows. It'll be interesting to see and if she is the Chatty Natty, we'll know soon enough. Us women from the south love to talk.

Hopefully she will say where she went to high school. Didn't her CBS bio state she went to college at UNO (not that there is anything wrong with that), but seriously... a true socialite would have gone to Newcomb. (I can't even afford to drive by Newcomb.)

Steven (Brokeback Mountain meets BB) He's an Geographical Information Specialist--he makes MAPS! Was on the gay rodeo circuit as a bull rider (champ all of 2006) until he was injured and has been doing rehab on his shoulder to be able to go back In a new dating relationship w/ a rancher in Texas... was not able to tell him where he was going... Someone will let him know where he is--and the rancher is a big fan of the show! Sounds worried about missing his friend or the friend moving on Doesn't know a thing about politics--barely knows who is running--things all politicians are dirty Is in BB for the excitement of the notority, loves the idea of 15 minutes of fame No secrets--thinks there may be some racy photos of him somewhere Has no problem w/ nudity, calls himself a very sexual person, very flirty, wants to be all the girls' best gay guy friend BB took all his underwear--ALL! because it had logos on it so he expects to be walking around naked Loves food so worried about slop

Guess we will get all the answers unless Renny goes early. Hey, maybe Sally Ann Roberts will do a piece on her like they did when they had locals on Survivor. I know what you mean about Newcomb. Hell, they have their own private street. LOL

The breakdown is better than BB9. Only 2 people under 25, and 3 over 30. BB9 had 7 people under 25 and 1 person over 30. But it is not really diverse. The average age has gotten older, the median age older, but the bulk of house guests just went from being 21-24 to being 26-29

http://cbs2.com/video/?id=71128@kcbs.dayport.com I hope I'm doing this right. Lexi, I just saw an interview that Diana and someone else did with Renny and she is absolutely NOT what you and I are thinking of as a socialite. She sounds like she is from Chalmette (that is not a bad thing people), and she looks to me like she's a little drunk. If she actually did write down that she is a socialite, she is delusional and it should make for good TV.

Watching the CBS2 interview. Diane is a horrible interviewer. She just seems to read off her list of questions and hmms and hasss a lot. Doesn't seem to be able to connect and "riff" off of her subject. Needs a lot more experience. She should watch some tapes of good interviewers.

More sports Rice Owls Volleyball Libra (Taylor) Thompson (1997-98) Currently Living In: Spring, Texas Current Occupation: Senior Human Resources Representative-Accenture Why I Chose Rice: “I chose Rice because of its academic reputation. In addition to the academics, Rice University provides a global perspective with regard to the staff, student body, not to mention world leaders and guest speakers that the campus attracts.” What it meant to me to be a Rice Owl: “It meant exploring, challenging, learning, developing, and achieving. It was a time to take pride in who you were and who you were about to become.”

While I'm not happy that AG is bringing slop back this year, perusing the list of hamsters (and especially that none of them know each other) this may be the happiest I have been about the show in years.

Lexie, you're right. Renny does sound drunk. I'm worried that if she couldn't stay sober for the promo video and they don't serve alcohol every night she just might get the DDT's.
