Zap2it interviews Jill Zarin "not leaving HW" http://www.popeater.com/2010/06/30/jill-zarin-not-leaving-housewives/ (apparently she was quoted, and it was "taken " out of context about not returning, but the article also says Bravo hasnt asked any of them yet)

Here is an interesting article I happened upon: Julie Chen May Host CBS Remake of 'The View' By Josef Adalian Published: April 21, 2010 "Big Brother" host Julie Chen will shoot a pilot next month for a new CBS daytime talk show described as a mommy version of ABC's "The View," people familiar with the situation confirm. The show will be a panel discussion series, like ABC's long-running hit, but hosted by a variety of moms: celebs, news folk and semi-ordinary people. In addition to the Chenbot (she likes that nickname, so no nasty comments, please!), other personalities slated for the pilot include "Real Housewives" star Bethenny "No Relation to TheWrap's Danny" Frankel, former "Roseanne" (and "24") star Sara Gilbert and daytime refugee/ "Dancing with the Stars" Lisa Rinna. CBS is no doubt considering Mommy View for the slot soon to be vacated by "As the World Turns," which ends its five decade-plus run on the network this September. The talk show could compete with some game show projects in the works at the Eye, including a new version of MoJoe fave "The $25,000 Pyramid." In addition to "Big Brother," Chen also co-anchors CBS's "The Early Show." It's possible she could continue doing both the news program and the talk show, though Chen -- who recently had her first child -- might also decide to finally give up the drudgery of working on the forever-stuck-in-third-place "Early Show." Chen, by the way, is married to CBS chief executive Leslie Moonves. If this project -- first reported by the NY Post's Page Six -- does go to series, we're hoping he'll guest host if producers ever decide to do a daddy's day. Make no mistake: That would clearly be awesome. CBS declined to comment on the story.

I swear anytime I read an article or read a Tweet of Kelly B.'s my blood pressue goes up, LOL. As I read this one all I could think is well she's up there and we're all down here. http://www.usmagazine.com/moviestvmusic/news/kelly-bensimon-im-not-crazy-not-in-therapy-2010137 Of her frenemies on the show, Bensimon suggests they're both critical and jealous of her: "Whether it's my nail color, my hair color, or the shoes I'm wearing, everything about me bothers them...They want to go to the parties I go to, they want to hang out with me, they want to do the things that I'm doing."

Alex and Jill remind me of a couple of girls I knew in high school who were on the edge of the in-group. Alex was like one who wanted so badly to be in the in group and would use every occasion to be included, and constantly built herself up in her words. But she was a kind girl who would never do anything to hurt anyone in her social climbing. Jill was like the girl who also so wanted to be in the in group that she would do anything including backstabbing and outright lying about other people to make herself look better. She was mean and vicious. And she was a bit stupid so she always got caught. In the end the nice girl did become a part of the in group and the mean girl lost more and more friends until she ended up buddies with girls just like her. As I watched this season, the whole dynamic was eerily familiar.

They want to go to the parties I go to, Kelly must be talking about that Halloween party she threw where she arrived over an hour late and had a cash bar. Yeah... that's the party people want to go to.

Bethenny was on Fox & Friends this morning - she said in all likelihood she would NOT be back next season.

Amazing article by a friend of Bethenny's father. This may have been posted before but any who missed it it's a great read. http://www.horseraceinsider.com/blog.php/John-Pricci/11182009-a-brooklyn-tale/

I think B said he did see her after her initial try, but there were no apologies. That's why she felt relief when he passed. It was like that part of her life was DONE. No more obsessing, it is what it is. No need to figure it out, worry about it, it is just done and time to move forward.

http://www.tvsquad.com/2010/08/25/real-housewives-roundup-bethenny-out-of-new-york-new-jers/ According to the New York Daily News, everybody else from last season -- Jill Zarin, Kelly Bensimon, Ramona Singer, Alex McCord, LuAnn de Lesseps and newbie Sonja Morgan -- has been asked back for another helping of socialite drama. No word on Jennifer Gilbert, who was followed by cameras for months but rarely popped up on season 3.

Initial reports were that Bethenny wasn't asked to return and she would just be focusing on her 2nd season of her own show. Turns out she IS coming back to the RHONY show. Boy will Jill be fuming that Bethenny will be on both shows!

Well, much as I love Bethenny, I don't love the others (except for Alex). I'm not sure just those two will be enough to pull me in for a another season. I may just wait till Bethenny's second season airs. I'm not sure I ever want to see Jill, Luann, or Kelly on my TV screen ever again.

I'm confused because I saw an interview with Bethenny maybe within the last couple of months and she said she was done with the HW and wasn't coming back. Needless to say, I'm stunned that Bravo brought Kelly back. I figured Bravo and Andy Cohen had an ass-full of her last season when she kept insisting that Bravo made her go on that trip.

Both reports came out the same day, August 25th. I guess we'll just have to wait for the news directly from Bethenny!

From the first article: Bethenny Frankel has not been asked back to the show. But, don't feel bad for the new mom. Frankel is busy filming the second season of her reality series 'Bethenny Getting Married?' There is no way in hell I believe she wasn't asked back, particularly after the success of BGM. Also, she didn't start filming for the last BGM until early 2009 (she was already several months pregnant), so she wouldn't be filming now. She also hasn't said a word about filming through Facebook or Twitter, which she or her assistants did last season. I call complete BS on this one... From the second article: Sources close to Bethenny tell Hollyscoop exclusively, "She's been asked to return for the new season and negotiations are ongoing." Bethenny's old bff Jill Zarin and her archenemy Kelly Bensimon will also return for some more drama. In negotiations <> definitely returning. It means she has been asked back and they haven't come to terms for her to say yes. She has stated multiple times that she will not return if Kelly is on the show. They would have to pay her a boatload of money to bring that kind of crazy back in her life. I call bullshit on this one, too. As for the third article, consider the source. They quote the NY Daily News, that bastion of journalistic integrity that reported Simon and Alex were not asked back for last season.

OMG... look at the crazy face Kelly is making in that picture in Tero's link. I'm on the bandwagon that if Bethenny comes back, it will only be for "cameos" and, in all likelihood, Kelly will not be in those scenes. Bethenny was pretty adamant that she would not film again with Kelly.

From Tero's link: ere's what I know, and where I call BS... Hey, someone stole my line! :-) But I agree, I can see her doing cameos, but nothing with Kelly and nothing substantial. Well, really, Gatecrasher and The NY Daily News had a blurb (and we awwl know who cawls them, right?) saying that all of the ho'wives except Bethenny had been asked back I wonder to whom she could be referring? Maybe we should ask BAAWWBY!

On the 4th hour of Today Show - Kote and some of her "today's Buzz" talked about the rumors - they say its about money - the only "for sure signed up is Kelly"! They talked to Bethenney - her show is in a 2nd season for sure, but for HW - her response was "my lips have to be zipped" - she isnt allowed to talk or??? well they think it may come down to money - and Jill Zarin also hasnt signed on, but its probably more about the contract, since this show has done very well compared to other HW (paraphrased )
