Real Housewives of NYC: With Special Guest Appearance from the Bruise on Sonja’s Ass

Time for another crapisode of the Real Housewives of New York City. And if it’s time for another episode it must be time for some more “modeling exposure” for Ramona. I’m not going to lie, I could watch Ramona walk down a runway or “pose” during a photo shoot all the live-long day. Well, that’s partially a lie as I usually work on the railroad all the live-long day, but in the non-railroad working portions of my life, I’d watch Ramona model.
Ramona thinks that if people are buying her products they’re going to want to see pictures of her on them so she’s trying to to a typical Tyra Banks smize, but it seldom works out. Each freeze-frame is more brilliant than the next as Ramona permanently has the expression of someone who has just witnessed a nun flashing them their breasts. Yeah, so, like that. And she gets pissed when she sees the pictures of her eyes all bugged out. Are you kidding me? I’m not joking, I would spend upwards of $1000 on Ramona Creepio wine if the label on each bottle was just her crazy eyes…and I wouldn’t even drink any of it, I’d just line them up all around my apartment so that Ramona’s eyes were following me just like my sister’s Michael Jackson Thriller poster did circa 1985 (you know, when I was negative 5 years old?). Luckily Sonja has walked on set to help calm Ramona and talk complete nonsense the entire time. I think it’s a personal goal that Sonja has, which is to be in as many scenes as she possible can. She should have a judge from Guiness with her at all times holding a stop watch and taking copious notes.
I also love how this season Jill “Fievel Mousekewitz” Zarin is trying her hardest not too look like a big b*tch on camera. She’s really committing to her role of “not horrible.” For some inexplicable reason Cindy invites Jill over to her home so that she can sit on top of the middle of her counter and look down on Jill whilst she eats. The second Jill walks into her apartment she doesn’t even look Cindy in the eye, but quickly takes a survey of everything inside. I’m sure she was scouting for clip-on Koala bears and if she had any potato latkes laying around (let me know what you think of the latkes). I have to admit that I do like how Jill called out (during her one on one interview) how Cindy is tired from having two babies and has to hear the nannies getting up in the middle of the night to tend to the crying children. Oh Fievel, sometimes you speak fits of truth. Meanwhile, Cindy must have borrowed Alex’s balls this episode because she’s quickly talking smack about our poor little Ramona and how she “has a bad core.” Jill is just about to squeal with delight over the negative spotlight shining over someone else who isn’t her for a change. She keeps looking off to the producers and the camera man like, “You’re getting this, right?” But in typical Jill fashion she yetta’s it up by planting the seeds to Cindy on how no one ever tells Ramona what they really think of her, but if she were to start telling other people her thoughts on Ramona than Jill suspects that other people will join in on the Ramona hate too. To quote Kelly Bensimone from the RHONYC Reunion Episode 3 of 3, “It’s called systematic bullying.” And like Bobby Zarin, Jill’s jealously rears its ugly head.
I wonder if damn Francois is playing that God damn piano? Moving on.
Later Jill and LuAnn head off to the costume shop to look for flammable clothes to wear for a costume party that Sonja is throwing for the cameras no reason at all. I’ve decided that if LuAnn isn’t singing she’s basically pointless. She’s trying on costumes and yelling out lines from movies. For example, she tries on a red dress and Jill awkwardly says, “Oh Scarlett” to which LuAnn responds back in a French/British accent, “Frankly my dear I don’t give a damn.” Bravo, stupid. It’s like just sing us Chic C’est La Vie and get on with it. And minutes later Jill is trying to pour herself into some crapbag dress and she’s constantly trying to adjust her new smaller boobs. Come on Jill. Really. If I wanted to see middle-aged women with their saggy boobs flopping around I’d put on Dancing With the Stars. Hey-oh! I don’t even know what that means!
Since this is Sonja’s party she doesn’t want to be outdone by any of her guests so she invites over some fat dude who made it into the finals on some fashion reality show and see if he can glue other wigs to her wig. At least I think that’s what was going on. All I know is that she wants to wear some costume that she has that looks like she got on sale at iParty on November 1st and barely will cover her gentlemen greeter. Oh, and she keeps trying to convince us that she has all these assistants. There is that dude again who brings her tea when she calls for him and apparently he also gets her mail and picks up her dresses for her when she needs him to because, you know, opening up the mail is clearly a full-time job…especially if Sonja is as broke as I’m reading she is…then I’m sure the “final notice” letters she’s receiving are certainly piling up.
I forgot to mention that we get to meet the baby-daddy of Cindy’s twins. Creeptastic. There is something weird between him and Cindy’s brother. I’m sure they’re all related. And, not for nothing, I know I don’t have kids but I’m pretty sure you’re not supposed to let newborns hang upside down. Eh, what do I know?
Well it’s finally time for the party and guess who forgot to put on her underpants? Sonja. Go figure. Like I say each week Sonja knows what she’s doing and is completely producing all of her own scenes down to every last line and reaction. This time around she’s bringing her niece who may or may not be Megan McCain. I’m thinking “may.” Sadly, LuAnn can’t make the party because she’s feeling under the weather. I’m sure Sad Ross is really on the brink of throwing himself off the Statue of Liberty and she just wants to get banged within an inch of her life. The party must go on, however, and it does.
The creepy fiesta is held at Sonja’s favorite place Cipriani in what I can only assume is the back room or the coat closet. And the costumes all suck, except for Alex’s costume and let’s just assume that she sold one of her brats to pay for it. Although maybe her Barbizon money is finally starting to come in. One may never know. Jill looks like Lois Griffin from one of the “Medieval Times” episodes. Kelly just hot-glue-gunned vagina sparkles all over her eyes and Ramona and Mario just wore formal dinner outfits with masks. Way to go all out. Jill is pissed over how small the place was, how bad the costumes were, and how there was hardly any food, but plenty of booze. Why doesn’t Jill drink? She totally should. I think it would make her more likable and even prettier. Just me?
The highlight, of course, of the party was when Sonja kept bending over with her entire ass hanging out and yelling, “I forgot half my costume!” Scratch that (literally). I think the highlight of all of that was when she bent over and we could all see the giant purple bruise on her ass. Perfect. Why do I have visions of Sonja standing naked in front of a mirror sideways crying, punching herself in the ass, and screaming “You’re nothing but a poor b*tch” over and over again?
The “next day” Cindy brings Jill with her to get new teeth. Yes, my friends, this something you being a pal along for. I guess Cindy wasn’t sure what kind of teeth she wanted and Jill was able to provide her with many examples of how many teeth she should have in her mouth. She’s good like that. At one point the dentist said something along the lines of “If you do it like that you’ll look horsier.” He didn’t say you will look like a horse, he said that you’ll look horsier meaning even more like a horse. I have to say, this dentists style of humor is right up my blackened heart alley. Personally I think everyone should get teeth work done. If you can’t afford braces just take a hammer to your mouth and get fakes ones. We don’t need to live in a world where snaggle tooth still exists. I believe Mother Theresa said that whilst on the streets of Calcutta.
The remainder of the episode took a cue from the RHOBH where Kyle and Camille got into some fight over something that Kyle apparently said to Camille but the cameras never caught. So to put an NYC spin on it, apparently at that wicked random wedding that they all went to at the beginning of the season Jill lashed out at the bride and asked her why she invited Simon and Alex and then started talking crap to the bride about Ramona. However, none of this was captured on camera even though there was a camera crew at the wedding. It’s like The Hills Script & Editing machine is in full effect. That random bride ended up spilling the scripted beans to Ramona at her self promotion wine event and Ramona loses her mind. I also feel like they’re setting this season up to make us think that Ramona is a big wino. And you know what? I’d be fine with that as I wouldn’t want to purchase my wine from anyone who doesn’t puke it up at the end of the night.
Once Jill arrives to the mid-day wine party, Ramona is a few glasses deep (and has already answered LuAnn’s 50,000 questions on how she made the wine, where the wine is made, blah blah blah, money can’t buy you class my friend, money can’t buy you class oh yeah!) and decides to pull Jill aside to confront her about what happened at the wedding. Jill, per usual, gets defensive and denies that she ever said anything to the bride at the wedding. Then she kinda snaps, tells Ramona that she has no class (LuAnn would agree in song form), and storms out of the wine party. She ends up then confronting the bride about what happened and then makes her way back inside to let Ramona know that she already took care of the issue with the bride. Over more arguing, they decide to possibly set up a lunch date to discuss the issues that they have with each other over the past 3 years. Seriously, if any of this ends with Ramona giving up drinking I’m going to be pissed off and will probably shut this here blog down.
In the end, Jill is in the limo crying to LuAnn over what Ramona did to her and then the best thing that could ever happen in the history of the world happened. Whilst Jill is crying and saying she’ll never be friends with Ramona again she opens up her purse and says to LuAnn (while crying, mind you), “Here and then next time you see Ramona give these to her!” And it was the clip-on Koala bears that Jill brought back from Australia. I mean, not only can you not make this sh*t up, but you can’t end the episode any better way than that! Ba da ba ba ba, I’m living it!

Craptastic Thoughts from IBBB Readers!

HowieBShop Said,
I am guessing maybe Sonja’s bruise was from when she flew off the horse a few weeks ago?
I also got confused when Cindy’s twins baby daddy walked in because I still think Howie is the dad
Sonja has like an awesome drunk version of terrets syndrome. The things that fly out of her mouth legit make no sense most of the time. When she pulled out that scary wig for chris marsh she said “an ex from 30 years ago bought it for me for a role ya know” WHAT DOES THAT MEAN? And did anyone catch that in the limo when LuAnn called her to say she couldn’t come Sonja was doing a LuAnn impression to her! She kept saying Darling and talking in that fake british accent. Priceless.

Joanna Said,
When Cindy’s baby daddy walked in I assumed he was gay and he was like, ohhhh hes the sperm donor. Nope, they were dating when she gave birth. And he stops by “about once or twice a week” to see his kids? Something very weird is going on.
-
Joanna Said,
Oh, and the koala! I laughed out loud. And then she added at the end, “that bitch.” Classic Zarin.
-
frenchfille Said,
Didn’t Cindy tell Jill in the art gallery that she and the “baby daddy” were not together when she had IVF or whatever? She did give some crazy “I knew I wanted kids, so I did it alone” speech in the beginning too, no? So confused! And Joanna, when he walked in I totally pegged him as the gay sperm donor too. I immediately though that maybe he and Howie had a little sumthin’ sumthin’ going on and hence the awkwardness.
They are playing up everyone’s drinking this season, whether it’s Alex draining her glass, Ramona’s ever-present Pino or Sonja’s constant incoherence.
-
SnarkySmurf Said,
Firstly, I was annoyed that LuAnn got the world’s most famous line from my all time fav movie WRONG. No LuAnn “Tomorrow is not JUST another day.”
Secondly, Cindy didn’t sound any better than a Teen Mom script with the “Oh, we sorta dated, then we broke up after the beybuhs were two months old, and my brother leaves the room when my baby-daddy comes over periodically.” Only, the Teen Mom seem way more comfortable with their babies.
-
Dirty Darl Said,
Jill and those damn koalas.
-
Daria Said,
I have now officially stopped watching the RHONY and only read your blog the day after. Less annoying and infinitely more entertaining. I can’t stand watching LuAnn-snake, Jill-jealous, Kelly-ding-bat, and Cindy-sad-replacement -for-Bethenny. As looney as Ramona, Sonja and Alex are – and they are- I would actually party with them. If I were high enough on the pecking order of course.
-
B Said,
I call gay on Cindy’s baby daddy. “I think I made the right choice” -Cindy (referring to her baby daddy and her not being together) Um, yeah, I’m pretty sure he made that choice for you when he showed up with his man husband.
-
julie Said,
I love that they’re showing Alex less and less. Fantastic. Did anyone else notice her trying to mediate the situation b/w Jill and Ramona at the party but no one was listening to her, so she was basically talking to herself? Priceless.
-
B Said,
@Joanna & @frenchfille – I didn’t see your comments before I commented. I totally think baby daddy is gay. @frenfille – I think Howie is gay too, which would explain the awkwardness.
-
Lydia Said,
Please, please tell me you caught Simon’s new song, “I’m Real” on Watch What Happens Live…from the blue lacquer pants to the most tone deaf performance i’ve ever seen…priceless
-
dacabsarehere Said,
Frenchfille! I was wondering the exact same thing!! Apparently everyone was. She made it sound like she had children on her own with a donor when she spoke to Jill but than suddently she tells us they broke up two months after the babies were born? Unfortunatly, I was hoping for the babies sake that the “donor” would be semi-attractive. At this point we can expect these kids to grow up and resemble Mr. Ed’s ass and face. Yucktastic.
-
LC Said,
Wine and cottage cheese thighs….that was a tough look. Sonja was basically screaming to everyone that she forgot to wear underwear, way to play it down!
And Jill with the koala, I can’t even
-
frenchfille Said,
I just realized I left the ‘t’ off of Ramona’s Pinot in my comment above. Forgive me Ramona, I ignored the pecking order it seems! ; )
@LC: I kept think about how proud the Morgans must be during Sonja’s drunken shenanigans! Dahling!
I think we should all get “Jill went to Australia and all I got was this stupid koala” tee shirts made!
-
Brianna Said,
I got such a ‘Flowers in the Attic’ vibe from Cindy and Howie when the sperm doner walked in. Howie’s obviously jealous cause he used to hit that, and by that- I mean Cindy, and by hit- I mean bang.
-
The Other Jessica Said,
Dear lord, we’re all on the same page with the Cindy/Howie/Baby Daddy weirdness. Cindy’s been caught double-talking about the “origins” of those kids – what the crap does it mean that her brother is “awkward” around the father of his nieces???
Cindy sure as shit made it sound like she had an anonymous donor and come to find out it was nothing like that at all? Please someone explain it to me!
-
LC Said,
@frenchfille–I didn’t even consider that she had family that might be watching…yikes!
I went to bravotv.com and read Cindy’s first blog, she was engaged to the brother’s stunt double, but did IVF to get pregnant.
-
Dani Said,
And while I am reading the part on Luann where you inserted the phrase ” money can’t buy you class”, I am actually singing it my head. I hate myself for knowing that tune and I hate you more for giving me a brain worm.
You know I am just a simple midwest girl, but I gotta say that Sonja’s party was really cheesy. If this is what passes for sophistication in the big city, than I am feeling much better about my lot in life. Hey, flyover country is not so bad after all. Jokes on you, New Yorkers.
Love your blog.

Jamie Powers Said,
Two things: #1….Simon’s outstanding performance on Watch What Happens Live needs it’s own recap. Hell, it needs it’s own website dedicated to non-stop recapping because it just is so rich with material. Holy Darl– between Simon’s performance, Kelly’s sand angels and Francois catching air while Alex tries to flaunt his new piano….WOW. We could fill a whole ward in the psych center! Thank you Bravo.
I really wanna know the deal with Cindy too…so strange. I still don’t get why she wanted kids so bad but wants nothing to do with raising them? I feel so sorry for her that she gets woken up by the nannies tending to them. Sniff, sniff.
I don’t get why Kelly was dressed like a middle-aged Playboy bunny for Sonja’s party
-
Kiera Said,
The ending scene in the limo with the koala bear was the icing on the cake. I couldn’t believe what I was watching.
-
Kiera Said,
LC – Engaged to her brother’s stunt double? That’s sick and twisted! Who wants to be engaged to someone who looks like your brother? Ugh…gross.
-
Kiera Said,
Sonja’s bare ass with a huge bruise…nice.
