Sugar, I am not so sure. I had completely forgot about Alex's nude pictures scandel. There's more to that story than they told us. (And I already know to much from last night's episode!)

I thought it was so funny that Ramona brought up Alex's nude pictures ... lol! Was Simon saying that Ramona had pictures as well and that's why he couldn't believe it was such a big deal?? I didn't understand that.

I might be wrong, but Simon kept bringing up Ramona kissing a gay male at a pool party, and mentioning about how "Holier Than Thou" she can be and she is a hyprocite. Simon did this in front of her husband. He has a bug up his ass about her and Alex just sits there and listens. Very strange all the way around. I think I need to go take a shower with bleach.

Was it a gay male that Simon was bringing up? I must be getting all of my reality shows mixed up in my brain - for some reason I thought he was talking about Ramona kissing another woman at a party. And why do I have something about Ramona and a Playboy Bunny in the back of my head - and that's why he thought she was being a hypocrite with regard to Alex's photographs. Geeeeze... I can't even keep the events of these shows straight in my head anymore.

Lol! Lexiegirl, I concede. You may very well be correct. Whenever I hear "Playboy Bunny" I now think of "Rock Of Love" and that one girl's t-shirt. I can't keep all these reality shows correct either.

I can't keep them straight either. But I did enjoy last nights show. "I'm up here and your down here." Whatever!! I agree she's manic and obviously delushional.

I'm serious, I have no clue what I am talking about. I think I have several reality shows all mixed up in my brain and I can't keep anything straight.

The thing that bugged me most about...is it Kelly? I'm so non-plussed by her I can't even remember her name....was that she had a quite lovely man sitting there with her and could NOT stop talking about her talk with Bethanny, which she just thought she had done so well. I would have been paying a heck of a lot more attention to that man than rehashing that Bethanny crapola. And, I'm really losing interest in these housewives. Boooorrrriiing! Bring on New Jersey! Wheeeeeee

The nude pictures of Alex was brought up last season's after show. Ramona bringing it up this time was for what purpose? Simon brought up the fact that Ramona was kissing and associated with a playboy bunny that removed her clothes and thought she was using a double standard. The Contessa keeps her title because she produced the first male child and I agree that she knew something was up. I wonder if the producers knew at the horse show when they captured her anger. I also wonder if Mario wants more airtime since Simon had the role of shadow housewife last season.

Me too but somehow I feel a little more normal while watching them. I think that's what I got out of the showdown between Ramona and Simon.

GroochI think Kelly will be a great co-author for Luanne's ettiquete book. roflol! You made some great points! I think Kelly comes across as being so "self important" and she probably shouldnt have done a reality show - I'm sure if she comes to the wrap show she'll claim "editing " showed her in a poor light - she really seems to have a distorted reality - but she wouldnt be the first - I know people like her in real life - its hard to be around people that feel they are "better than you"!

THE REAL HOUSEWIVES OF NEW YORK CITY New York Housewives Bethenny & Kelly Sound Off on Their Feud April 1, 2009 Call it the rumble in the lipstick jungle: When Kelly Bensimon finally confronted Bethenny Frankel about the tense state of their relationship on last night’s episode of The Real Housewives of New York City, it instantly joined the ranks of the great cat fights in reality TV history. PEOPLE.com caught up with Bethenny and Kelly on their cell phones this afternoon to get their take on what really went down. –Mark Dagostino Bethenny’s Take: Her opinion of Kelly: “I have met her no less than seven to 10 times, and she’s a ‘faux-cialite’ — that’s a word that I came up with, and she defines that word,” says Bethenny. “Everybody in high school knew that girl who ignores you until you got on the cheerleading squad. She’s just that girl, and it’s resonating with a lot of people.” On her Madonna comment: “Had she said, ‘I’m sensitive, that was kind of a rude comment,’ says Bethenny, “I would have said, ‘I’m sorry. I have a big mouth. I get it. Let’s move on.’ But that’s not what happened. On the feud: “The really funny thing is that she thinks that I’m the one who looked like a lunatic last night!” marvels Bethenny. “She believes that [her former employer] Page Six Magazine, which doesn’t exist anymore, is the Washington Post. It’s not like we’re dealing with someone who has a full deck of cards. Ramona said it best when she said it’s like she doesn’t have a brain. She’s the scarecrow from The Wizard of Oz. On how she gave Kelly “relevance” on the show: “I’m the one who made her relevant. She should send me a thank-you basket for making her relevant. Watching crazy is very, very entertaining,” Bethenny says. Kelly’s Take: On the backlash against her: “I’m not feeling beat up,” Kelly says of the knocks she’s taken in the blogosphere for her role on the show and in this feud. “It’s fun. It’s five different women in New York [ed note: there are six Housewives], and it gets a little hot and steamy. What’s wrong with that?” On how the feud got started: In the middle of that charity meeting, “Bethenny attacks me, calling me ‘Madonna’ — calling me names,” says Kelly. “She put me in a very awkward position in front of five other women. I was really hurt by that. I don’t even know these people and they’re calling me names!” On their bar fight: “I wanted to say, ‘I don’t know what the situation is, but we’re on this show together we should get along and have fun with it,’ and it became something I didn’t want it to become,” admits Kelly. “It went sour immediately. I got there, I was late, it’s the end of Fashion Week, I have two young girls. When she said ‘I’ve been waiting for 30 minutes,’ I mean, I’m doing the best that I can! I’m running all over the city with kids. I have a really hectic, crazy life.” On Bethenny’s complaint that she acts like she doesn’t know her: “I don’t know her,” says Kelly. “It’s not a negative thing, it’s a question of reality. She adds: “If she feels badly that I’m not acknowledging her, she could say, ‘You didn’t say hi to me.’” In fact, Kelly says, “Ask any person that knows me and they’ll say, ‘Oh my God, Kelly goes out of her way to remember people.’ I’m nice to every single person all the time. I like people!” On her feelings toward Bethenny: “I’m the most un-confrontational person you’ll ever meet,” reveals Kelly. “I was put in an awkward position, and it turned out badly, but I don’t have any ill feelings toward Bethenny.” On the upside of the feud: Viewers are flocking to BravoTV.com, where, Kelly says, she’s able to spotlight the charitable work she’s doing by selling a clothing line to benefit the Memorial Sloane-Kettering Cancer Institute. “I created this charity [selling] athletic wear to help my best friend’s daughter,” she says. “I was really, really offended [by Bethenny’s comments],” she says, adding, “Regardless, the show must go on. There is drama because we’re all so different, and that’s what makes the show really fun.” MICHAEL BEZJIAN/WIREIMAGE, DAVE ALLOCCA/STARTRAKS Permalink | Comments (122)

Kelly must have a problem with her TV set or something. All of us saw her say "Too bad..." when Bethenny said they'd scheduled a 7:00 meeting, and it was now 7:30. And the "I'm up here, and you're down here" comment? Yeah, she should be offended...but at her own behaviors! I was amazed at Bethenny's self-control. Bethenny herself said that she thought that the meeting was to discuss things and try to clear the air (I don't have any quote for that). It was so clear that Kelly called this meeting just to try and humiliate Bethenny on the show. I would have b*tchslapped Kelly.
Go Team Bethenny! Go Team Jill!

ITA! Kelly must not know how popular Bethenny is to act like the towards her on the show. Bethenny even went up a few notches in my eyes because I wanted to deck Kelly for her! LOL

I thought it in extreme bad taste for Kelly to first ask Bethanny for drinks just to tell Bethanny how outclassed she is by Kelly, and then to be late for it. Kelly's excuse that she's late for everything because she's so busy? BS! She comes across to me as very self-absorbed and self-important. Didn't she tell Ramona to "let it go" with regard to Simon? Physician, heal thyself.

"Now come whispers that Ramona Singer, the highly-caffeinated maker of religious jewelry, is persona non grata at her daughter, Avery's, school. One parent at Sacred Heart said, "All of us and the school are very embarrassed by Ramona's actions on the show. The school has asked her to take Avery off the show, but she refused. Now no one wants to be near Avery because they don't want to be associated with the show." http://www.nypost.com/seven/04012009/gossip/pagesix/new_mess_for_housewife_162332.htm

Bethanny is my new role model for self restraint. Bethanny could have ripped a new one for Kelly but she was smart enough to realize she needed to do nothing but let Kelly implode. I'd bet that Kelly won't be around next season, if there is a next season. The contrast between the 2 families remodeling their homes is glaring.
