Watch Amy Schumer, Bill Hader and Judd Apatow Reenact a Real Housewives Scene



TIME.com:
Amy Schumer has been making the late-night rounds promoting her new movie Trainwreck, but you wouldn’t be faulted for thinking she’s promoting the Real Housewives franchise instead. After poking fun at the series with a fake audition video, she and co-star Bill Hader and director Judd Apatow acted out a scene from Real Housewives of New York during an appearance on Andy Cohen’s Watch What Happens Live. Schumer played Sonja Morgan, Apatow played Countess LuAnn de Lesseps and Hader played Bethenny Frankel, and the result is as over-the-top and ridiculous as the show they’re parodying.

Cynthia Bailey, Kristen Taekman and Camille Grammer Walk the Runway @ Betsey Johnson's New York Fashion Week Show


EOnline.com:
The Real Housewives are taking over New York Fashion Week!

As fashion designer and upcoming Dancing With the Stars contestant Betsey Johnson presented her spring 2015 collection to fans at Lincoln Center, some people may have recognized a few Bravolebrities working the famous runway.

Cynthia Bailey, Kristen Taekman and Camille Grammer were all invited to strut their stuff during Betsey's prenup-inspired show.

"My theme was all about Modern LOVE and marriage!" the always creative designer tweeted to fans Wednesday. "What a day!"

First up was the beautiful Cynthia who took a break from filming Real Housewives of Atlanta to star in the show.

"Got my life walking in @xobetseyjohnson today," she instagrammed. "Had so much fun #onceamodel….@Calibere @thebaileyagency"

Not to be outdone, Kristen also looked quite fab as she walked in a puffy wedding dress.

Johnson described the look as "someone's getting married," even though a "prenup" necklace was proudly displayed around the model's neck.

"Got to walk in a wedding dress today for Betseys show," the Real Housewives of New York star captioned on Instagram. "#Stillgotit #RHONY @XoBetseyJohnson #BJprenup"

But the Real Housewife who got the most attention from the audience was the one and only Camille. 

Described by the designer as a "true Jersey Girl," Grammer stepped onto the runway in a sheer and skimpy dress.

"In NYC for fashion week," she tweeted before showtime. "Getting ready to walk the runway for Betsey Johnson. So excited! At my age and after cancer...A bit nervous."

Real Housewives of South Boston (Parody)



NECN.com:
Many people are familiar with "The Real Housewives of New York" and "The Real Housewives of Orange County", but what about "The Real Housewives of South Boston"?


A new comedy sketch is putting some Boston stereotypes in the spotlight, highlighting the typical Boston accent and the love of New England sports teams.


The video has gone viral on YouTube, and some people say it could offend viewers from the South Boston area.

'30 Rock' Does 'The Real Housewives'



BuddyTV.com:
Did you watch the "Queen of Jordan" episode of 30 Rock? It's a must for Real Housewives fans, as the episode is filmed and edited as Queen of Jordan, Tracy Jordan's wife's series on Bravo. The episode was fun, even for those who aren't very familiar with the Housewives, but there were lots of hidden treats for those of us who have watched and enjoyed The Real Housewives of New Jersey, Beverly Hills, Atlanta, and New York City.


The episode had electronic-cigarette-smoking psychics, table flipping, and a strip aerobics studio. Liz Lemon uses the infamous Caroline Manzo simile, "thick as thieves," and Angie Jordan is releasing a single ("My Single is Dropping"). Oh, and that strip aerobics studio belongs to "Randi" former Delaware call girl, who is a lot like Danielle, and the single release party is being planned by D'Fwan, who is definitely Dwight.

Other references include Randi and D'Fwan's argument over whether or not Randi "said it" in Atlantic City, Jenna's alcohol problem, Liz Lemon yelling, "let me talk, I am talking, will you let me talk for once?" and lots and lots of wine throwing. It's a brilliant and loving homage and you can watch the whole episode here. I am so glad they did this episode!

'The Dish' on Danielle Staub's Spin-off



Zap2it.com:
It's very seldom when we find ourselves reversing our opinion on something. When Danielle Staub was kicked off "The Real Housewives of New Jersey" and she began talking spin-off shows, we made a crack or 10 at her.

But, now, we do think she may have landed with the right show. "Don't Staub Believin'" could be the perfect turn for the woman who really saw herself as quite the doting mom and innocent victim. It takes her back to a time of baking cupcakes for bake sales and giving advice to the neighborhood gorillas gals.

Staub appears on the Style Network's "The Dish" on Saturday, Sept. 11 at 10 p.m. ET where she'll let everyone know just how wholesome she really is, supposedly giving up all the deets on her dismissal by Bravo and what really went down with the other housewives.
Danielle did used to dabble in acting so no surprise that she could be funny if given the right script.
