We both look ‘real’ stupid. 

As they are talking, Laura walks in with pigtails and 80s wear and I think she looks fine. Bambi doesn’t think she brought any shimmer. Bambi’s shirt SAID “shimmer”… so I guess she brought it.

 Whatevs, I think I look ‘real’ cute. With or without shimmer.

Malaysia and Draya are skating and Jackie rolls up. She hugs Draya and Malaysia pees herself in excitement.  Malaysia tells Draya that she went with Jackie to pick out fabric for Fashion Week but that Jackie had really wanted Draya to be there and also wanted Draya to be in her show. Now, THAT DIDN’T HAPPEN ON MY TV. So Draya’s fame-seeking eyes see a chance to get into Fashion Week, even if it’s through Jackie… but she doesn’t want to make it easy on Jackie… First, she asks “Jackie, did you really say that”, like did you really want me… and Jackie’s all “yes, yes… I wanted you…” (and I’m all “no. when? totally. didn’t. happen.”) So Draya tells her that it’s “soundin good” but that they have “some sht to work out first”. 

 This ain’t my ‘real’ hair… or my ‘real’ friend.

Did I mention I’m a ‘real’ model? 

 Yes Draya, you did, and I’m ‘real’ old.

Everyone hugs, Bambi rolls up… they hug some more. It’s just pathetic. Draya interviews that she was grossed out by the hug and that she blames Malaysia and her unicorn . But what kills me is a future scene with Draya and Laura’s sister. Because Draya calls out Laura’s fake behavior, but Draya is doing the EXACT SAME THING.

They all stand and are talking about Laura being fake, and Laura rolls up in a THIRD spikey backpack. Jackie pulls her aside and tells her that people think Laura is treating Jackie as a doormat. Brooke rolls up and gets involved, and Laura tells Jackie to just talk to her, and to stop bringing other people into their deal. Laura goes on to say that basically she doesn’t give a sht about what anyone thinks and she can barely avoid answering Jackie’s incessant “you are my friend, right?” questioning. While Laura is arguing with Brooke, she accidently says that Jackie is her friend and Jackie is happy and skates off. Brooke tells Laura that she can’t be like that to Jackie and Laura doesn’t agree. She feels like she can do whatever she wants. Brooke says that if she’s that fake with Jackie, then how do the other girls know if she’s being real with them. Laura doesn’t seem to care about that either. I agree. In a group of girls there is never true loyalty amongst everyone. It just doesn’t work that way. You snooze. You lose.

    I’m so irritated by how two-faced they’re all acting. They ALL talk about Jackie. Laura is the only one who repeat what she says to her face! Laura is the only one that is being [mostly] honest. I used to think Brooke was too, but now she has quickly jumped onto the ‘Laura is a bully’ wagon & taken one of the lead positions! I’m so confused by this. Wasn’t Jackie hated by EVERYONE like 2 or 3 episodes ago?!

    Madelyn (have I ever told you that I reeeeaaaly wanted to name my 2nd daughter Madelyn…did not have one so I have been lobbying for a bit for one of my kids to give me a GRANDDAUGHTER (helllloooooo) to name her Madelyn. (P.S. and she has to have red hair))) Did I put one too many parenthesisesei there.
    I’ve had a couple of beers…

    Loved your recap. Laura needs to put everything on the table with Jackie. Jackie, while looking pathetic also gets the sympathy votes since she is trying to repent and move on.

    lol, you guys don’t know about Jackie getting a female director fired from the Sac. Kings b/c Wackie Jackie thought she was flirting with her man lol?
    Jackie would follow the tour bus when they went on trips, during 1/2 time she would make sure Doug was starting at her and not the show, hence, “cheerleaders”
    Bitch is crazy! I can go on, but if you don’t want to know then no reason too.

    @Antonia, I remember all those things. I think there was a “special” on it back in the day.

    I guess I was watching a different show because I think Laura is wrong. She knows that Jackie is crazy and she keeps toying with her. She has an elaborate plan of revenge to hurt this lady instead of speaking with her about it and moving on.

    The rest of the girls know that Jackie is crazy but seems to have a good heart. They try to stay away from her but they are trying not to hold her crazy against her.

    I wouldn’t be cool with Laura either, because like the wummin (thanks Danielle Staub) have said if you do it to Jackie why wouldn’t you be doing the same thing to me.

    Now Jackie things everyone is on her side when really they are against Laura.

    Totally agree with EVERYTHING you said Classy! Doesn’t Laura have like 4 or 5 kids?! Shouldn’t she be taking care of them, or setting some sort of an example? Wait, what am I thinking? That would be logical thinking, and she is on BBW….. I can’t stand Jackie, but I can’t stand what Laura is doing. Damn! Just curse her ass out and move on. I think that would do just as much damage to Jackie since it appears she worships Laura. I just can’t imagine as someone who is beyond high school and college having the time or energy OR CARE to exact this type of revenge. Ehhh, can you tell it irritates me, LOL.

    On another note, so really getting over this show. The editing is beyond wack. I am trying to figure out what happened that all of a sudden now Brooke and Draya are upset about Laura’s behavior. It seemed beyond random that first thing at the party Bambi runs up to Brooke and now they are all on the same page about the situation. IDK, just over it. Totally agree that Draya is opportunist and was salivating at the thought of being in fashion week Jackie or not.

    Okay, I’ll totally admit I’m partial to Laura for the wrong reasons. And she should just say her peace and be done with it… But maybe the producers don’t want it to be so easy. Anyway, I had/have one person it my life that did me wrong… And after six years we had our come to Jesus blow up fight. Screaming, cursing, quitting, her hanging on the hood of my car (she was drunk… Neither of us were classy)… But I said everything on my mind. Including calling her son a future serial killer… (haha, I still laugh that I said that… But it’s true. We all called him John Wayne Gacy Jr.). But that fight still wasn’t enough for me… I still have dreams of truly hurting her or plotting some elaborate revenge… Not that I’d do anything. I’m way too lazy. But just saying, maybe Laura’s anger and hurt run deep… Or again, maybe the producers told her to make it last for a whole season.

    And as far as kids… They all seem to take the hands off approach to parenting during taping.

    And @antonia, I love any gossip or back story… I’ve googled around and found some, but then find myself in a web of twitter wars and hosting gigs and I give up.

    Btw, Malaysia and Draya will be hosting a party at The Rooster Tail this weekend in Detriot. Holla.

    I’m confused, I watched last season (but maybe I blocked it out?) and I can’t remember what Jackie supposedly did to Laura…

    I’m confused too… And I just spent more time googling Jackie and Laura 2011, to see if old stuff would come up, but all I could read is that Gloria slept with Laura’s man, and that Laura slept with Shaq, and that exec producer got mad at Gloria for that bc she set Laura and Shaq up… But they did say that Jackie may have mentioned it on the reunion show but it was bleeped out, and that Laura had a second fight that was cut out… Maybe with Jackie? At this point I need to be spoon fed, but sadly… It’s bugging me.

    @kdog, I think when Laura said that she wanted to speak with Jackie’s kids was when everyone decided that Laura was crossing the line.

    I didn’t mind Laura at the beginning but now it’s just too much.

    Last year Jackie had everyone believing that everyone was talking about everyone else. Then it was rumored that at the reunion Jackie said Gloria slept with Gilbert (Laura’s fiancee). That caused the sisters to not speak with each other. (remember Gloria said it was outside people that made them grow apart)

    So while I do understand Laura’s anger, I still think that you could curse her out, throw a drink in her face and not deal with her anymore.

    It would just be tooooo exhausting to have an evil master plan.

    Laura has issues. If you really think Jackie’s the crazy one, then why would you ever pretend to be her friend. I know I would stay far away from \CRAZY\ folks.
    I couldn’t figure out why Laura would except Jackie’s apology if she wasn’t willing to get over it. How can you except her apology, yet still plot your revenge.
    Laura’s pure evil and I’m glad Bambi and Brooke finally can see that.
