Gretchen Rossi: Returning to RHOC to Ruin Tamra Judge"s Life?!

We’ve heard that one of the priorities that producers had for this past season was to try to reunite Vicki Gunvalson and Tamra Judge.


That goal was apparently why they brought back Lydia McLaughlin. And, mission more or less accomplished, they’ve now fired Lydia McLaughlin. Make of that what you will.


But that doesn’t mean that Tamra is headed for a drama-free life. Because it looks like Gretchen Rossi is going to make an epic return to The Real Housewives of Orange County.



Tamra Judge and Gretchen Rossi aren’t exactly what you’d call friends.


You might think that, with Gretchen no longer on The Real Housewives of Orange County, the ongoing dislike between the two of them might have cooled off during the past season.


Out of sight, out of mind, you know?


Instead, things actually reached a boiling point — no, they more or less exploded — between Gretchen and Tamra.


See, back in August, Sidney Barney slammed Tamra Judge as a bad mother, accusing neglect and emotional abuse.


Sidney, not an adult, alleged that her estranged mother continued to use her as a storyline despite her repeated requests to not be mentioned, that Tamra misrepresented her relationship with Sidney to gain sympathy from followers, and that Tamra basically just sucks.


Sidney said that a little more eloquently, but you get the idea.



How did Gretchen respond to Sidney’s post?


With sympathy and support. Gretchen wrote in a publicly visible reply to Sidney’s post:


“You have no idea how your brave words are helping so many who have been wronged by your mother’s manipulation and lies as well … “


We honestly doubt that this was Sidney’s intention, but Gretchen was clearly making this about her.


“So thank you for being brave enough to speak the truth.”


“I am so sorry your mother and your family is going through any of this, especially publicly, but continue to stay strong.”


“Your morals and strength are commendable and inspiring.”


That is classic the enemy of my enemy is my friend, right there.



Well, it looks like Tamra’s life is about to get a whole lot more stressful.


RadarOnline reports that Gretchen Rossi is being courted to return to The Real Housewives of Orange County.


For a price.


“Gretchen is willing to return, but producers know she will only sign if they offer the kind of money she can’t refuse.”


According to their source, Gretchen wants the kind of salary that Vicki Gunvalson is making.


Reportedly, Vicki is pulling in about $ 750,000 a year. But apparently producers think that Gretchen might be worth it.


“Producers for RHOC know that they need someone who is going to bring the drama, and Gretchen will certainly do just that.”


She’ll certainly do that.


After Vicki and Tamra ever-so-slightly mended fences in Iceland, producers will want new, fresh drama that doesn’t threaten to derail the entire series.


They’ll also need it to be a source of reliable drama, too.


“Gretchen will never, ever make up with Tamra.”


That sounds much better than the random fights that the now-fired Peggy Sulahian used to engage in for no reason other than the fact that cameras were rolling.


“The two hate each other so much and it does not matter to Gretchen whether or not Vicki let it go because she will not.”


Gretchen and Vicki, of course, are still friends. But it sounds like Gretchen won’t hold back.



You know that Vine (who else is excited about Vine 2?!) where the kid does his impression of Real Housewives by stuffing his shirt hilariously and then saying “I won’t hesitate, bitch” while pointing a toy gun?


That, it sounds like, is what we can look forward to from the next season of The Real Housewvies of Orange County.


Assuming that producers cough up the requisite dough, that is.


With Meghan King Edmonds remaining on the show because she’s pregnant and Gretchen a likely castmate, we’re reportedly still looking at at least three new castmates being added to the roster for next season.


It’ll be interesting to see what sort of dynamic the producers cook up.

Young Girls Shocks Judges With Amazing Vocals on America"s Got Talent

America"s Got Talent prides itself in bringing us the best talent from all over the United States of America. 


While some people are getting tired of singing competitions, the ratings juggernaut has a good track record with singers. 



The latest shocker comes in the form of a 9-year-old girl from Atlanta, Georgia who aspires to be just like Whitney Houston. 


Her name is Angelica Hale, and she was surprisingly not shy about chatting with the judges before her performance. 


"I"m nine-years-old, and I just found out that I"m going to be a big sister," she said to the crowd with a grin on her face. 


The young girl then went on to chat about how happy she was to be on the show. 


"I"m so happy to be here, because, like, I"ve been watching your show on Youtube and now I feel, like, like I"m in it!"


The judges and audience seemed taken with the young girl"s confidence, but nothing could prepare them for the performance the youngster was about to put on for them. 


Simply put, it was breathtaking. 


She performed Andra Day"s "Rise Up." The vocals were there. Something tells us the kid is going to get her wish and be a superstar one day. 



Simon looked away at the beginning of the performance, as though he was waiting for the child to not hit the huge notes of the song. 


His facial expression changed dramatically as her voice rose throughout. He was probably sizing her up for a recording contract. 


Hey, Simon is one of the best people in the biz. He has a wealth of hit artists under his label. 


Have a look at the full video below and hit the comments with your thoughts on it!

Simone Biles to Dancing with the Stars Judges: Don"t Tell Me to Smile!

It’s official:


Simone Biles isn’t just a world champion gymnast.


She’s also a world champion comeback generator.



On Dancing with the Stars last night, Biles advanced to this season’s semifinals on the heels of a solid Foxtrot and a strong Paso doble.


But the former Olympian didn’t totally win over the judges with these routines, as Carrie Ann Inaba took Biles to task less for her dancing skills and more for her lack of emotion.


“Your skills are unquestionable,” Inaba said, prior to getting into the crux of her critique:


“You hit every line with precision and perfection. But once again, I’m going to come back to performance and authenticity about who you are when you perform…


“You have this beautiful smile and you are a megastar with your energy, but once in a while, there’s beauty without a smile.


“There’s beauty in pain and all of the other emotions, and I’d like to see more of that.” 



Julianne Hough agreed with her fellow panelist.


“I don’t know if the smile is authentic because you want to smile, or if it’s just because you rehearsed it that way,” she told Biles.


“I really just want to see some rawness come out.”


This is, of course, completely ridiculous. And also a bit sexist.


Can you imagine any judge telling a male contestant to smile more naturally?


Fortunately, Biles had the perfect response to this odd and unfair criticism.


“I’ve lived in a gym 14 years of my life, so it’s hard to show something I’ve never felt before,” she said at first, offering up a valid excuse for why she isn’t a natural on the dance floor.


But after remaining stoic upon hearing positive reviews after her second performance, and then being asked by Tom Bergeron why she still wasn’t smiling, Biles responded:


Smiling doesn’t win you gold medals.


BAM!


And Biles would know.


This amazing comeback earned the athlete quite a bit of praise and admiration across social media.






And then there was this:






Following the episode, Biles and her partner Sasha Farber spoke with Entertainment Tonight about the struggle she’s had to connect with the judges this season.


“I feel like everyone has their own opinion, clearly, and I feel it’s just how you take it,” Biles said, adding:


“I feel like I am trying, I am being honest, but if they don’t see that, I don’t know what more I can do.”


An intense competitor, Biles is accustomed to simply getting the job done; not concerning herself with what sort of emotions are displayed on her face.


“You don’t know which wild card of sexy or of happy they want to bring, and you almost have to read their minds and find it,” she told ET last night, concluding that she nearly broke down on live television.


“I had tears in my eyes. I almost ran to the bathroom at one point, but I pulled it together.”



You go, Simone Biles!


If we have it our way, this impressive young woman will win the entire thing this season…


… and then accept the Mirrorball Trophy without even the faintest hint of a smile.
