Brandi Glanville to Lisa Vanderpump: Merry Christmas, C--t!

It remains to be seen if Brandi Glanville will ever return to The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills in a full-time capacity, but the 43-year-old trash-talker certainly hasn’t lost her knack for stirring up drama.

According to TMZ, Brandi recently sent a profane text message to ex-castmate Lisa Vanderpump that shocked even those who have seen Brandi at her wine glass-throwing worst.

Sources say that Lisa was partying with Lance Bass and other friends at her own Pump restaurant in West Hollywood when she received the jaw-dropping missive from her former friend:

“Merry Christmas vanderC–t and yes i am having my moment AND it’s amazing!!! How is yours???? hahahahah #karmasabitch Or is it a c–t?? Hahahaha.”

Based on the timing of the text, it seems that Brandi was cruelly mocking Lisa over the death of her beloved dog Daddio (the father of Lisa’s other pup, Giggy, who regularly appears on RHOBH, as well as Lisa’s other series, Vanderpump Rules).

The beloved Pomeranian passed away less than 24 hours before Lisa received Brandi’s text, and Vanderpump and pals were out celebrating her adoption of two new pooches when Lisa received the message.

The 55-year-old reality star and restaurateur took the high road in a statement issued to TMZ:

“It’s sad to have that much hatred in your heart especially at this time of year,” Lisa said. “Our lil Daddio meant the world to us. Anyway, happy Christmas.”

Lisa remains a class act, but we get the feeling she won’t be easily forgetting about Brandi’s harsh words.

Teresa Giudice Wishes You a Merry Christmas

Christmas came a couple days early for Teresa Giudice and her family.

Early Wednesday morning, the detestable reality star was released from a prison in Connecticut after spending nearly a year there due to her admitted role in a bankruptcy and mortgage fraud scheme.

Bravo cameras were not permitted to film Teresa’s actual departure from the correctional facility in Danbury, but we’ve learned they are already inside her home, gathering up footage for an upcoming special.

We can’t wait.

(NOTE: If that sarcasm failed to successfully come through your computer screen, allow us to emphasize: we totally can wait.)

According to various outlets, meanwhile, Teresa was driven from the jail by her lawyer and reunited inside her mansion with husband Joe Giudice and the couple’s four daughters:

Gia, 14, Gabriella, 11, Milania, 10, and Audriana, 6.

For the sake of those poor children, we actually are very happy that their mother is back home.

“It was very emotional,” attorney James J. Leonard Jr. told reporters about his wife’s reunion with her children. “It was a private moment but it was very emotional, very powerful and it was something to see.”

How many people out there want to wager that this “private moment” will be featured on Bravo some time in the near future?

Leonard added that his client had a message she wanted him to pass along.

“Merry Christmas. Happy New Year….all of you should go be with your families and your loved ones,"” he quoted her as saying.

Giudice has already been welcomed home by friends and random Twitter users, though her release does come with certain conditions.

She must remain on home confinement, wearing an electronic monitoring bracelet, until February 5. which was her original early release date.

However, Giudice will be allowed to work, meaning shooting on a new season of The Real Housewives of New Jersey can now begin at any time.

For his role in the same set of financial frauds and schemes, Joe Giudice will begin serving a 41-month prison sentence in March

Kris Jenner: Merry Kris-mas and Trappy New Year!

You might already be aware of Love magazine"s advent calendar videos, which seek to answer the question – what happens when you combine Christmas, awkward nudity and the sort of nightmares you"re likely to have after eating too much cheese before bed?

This year"s offerings have already given us Kendall Jenner as a half-naked shark and Pamela Anderson baking a cigarette cake in old-timey underwear.

But believe it or not, the folks at Love still haven"t managed to top last year"s tripped out insanity.

For Christmas of 2014, they gave us Kendall getting spanked by Santa Claus, and then they made things even weirder by throwing Kendall"s mom, Kris Jenner, into the mix.

Yes, apparently putting a lingerie-clad 18-year-old in Santa"s lap wasn"t weird enough, so they had Kendall dance with Kris in a 10-second clip that will forever change the way you look at candy canes.

Knowing there"s almost no way they could top that in terms of "ick" factor, this year"s curators went more simplistic and just had Kris writhe around in a pool while listening to Fetty Wap"s "Trap Queen."

What does the clip mean? Why did Kris agree to this? Does it have anything to with Christmas?

We"ll probably never know the answers to any of those questions, but for the sake of this video, let"s temporarily change the meaning of "trap queen" to "a female monarch who traps her children into serving as semi-nude publicity magnets."

Now it makes a bit more sense.
