She's ghetto and country. Only she believes that she's anywhere near being "high class."

We went through this whole debate on her age two years ago. She still looks damn near 50.

A very interesting episode tonight, I think. I'm convinced that Cynthia has a weakness for men who have sultry, sexy voices or men who are at least very well-spoken. Think about it, ... her fiance, her ex (Leon), and now her "best friend" (whose name escapes me) all have very nice speaking voices. Hmmmmm ... (I'm a vocalist, so I can't help noticing things like that.)

Nene is really having such a tough time, but she certainly tore into Greg's a$$. I won't comment too much for the sake of those who have not had a chance to watch the new episode yet.

Sheree had to go ballistic on MISTER Tiy-E Muhammad. He kept saying she wouldn't let him finish, but she basically had to let his egotistical know-it-all pathetic self go somewhere and sit down, because he was making a fool out of himself. He was holding the so-called transcript in his hand for the doctoral degree he received, but did he SHOW IT? NO! I wonder why ... And what kind of defense is, "Prove you're a woman?" HUHN?! I think he can fake a title better than Sheree could fake her gender, don't you think? What was she supposed to do, ... take off her top?

And Phaedra ... ~sigh~ ... never mind. I'd rather not even bother discussing Phaedra...

[christiangirl]

Ol' Tiy-E was on the show?? I had to read one of his books for class and I wish he'd hired me as his editor. The thing wasn't even spell-checked. F7 would have caught 3/4 of that mess.

And is Phaedra the pregnant one? I only saw the show once, I don't remember them all. Which was the one who was engaged for the umpteenth time but never made it down the aisle?

ETA: Ooooh ok so Phaedra had the baby. Gotcha.

NeNe and Greg are a bust.

I look forward to seeing how Kim embarasses herself as a "singer." Kandi didn't divulge too much on "watch what happens next."

Mr. Muhammed is the lamest of the lame. Unbelievably lame and the way he ended their encounter with the equivalent of Don Cornelius' "love, peace, and soul" was soooo corny. He kissed his finger and touched his heart as though he's being the bigger person and bestowing blessings upon Sheree. I agree with Sheree that he's a tit for tat person. It wasn't enough for him to be a fake and a liar, he had to highlight the things in Sheree that he didn't like. Then he had the nerve to have the "transcript" which we know wasn't a real transcript. LOL. Yeah.

[KSUViolet06]

Yeah, I'd say that Nene and Greg are done.

I was really weirded out by his attitude toward the situation. He wasn't like "Oh my goodness, honey, I AM SO SORRY."

He was just like "Um ok."

Nene's speech to Greg: "I know it wasn't an interview, ... I'm clear that it's not an interview. It ain't even about it being an interview for me, Greg. As far as I'm concerned, Corey is a STRANGER ... who should NEVER be involved in your family life. Where the $300,000 you gave me? Where?! WHEN?! I am your WIFE of 13 years, ... and if you gave me a MILLION dollars, it doesn't matter. See, I got wit'cho ass when you didn't have a DIME! I didn't GET with you for money! I got with you because I LOVED you! But now you tellin' me you want it BACK?! Now, I gave YOU $300,000 ... where it's at? Give me back my vacation! Gimme them back! Give me back the goddamn labor pains I had fo' yo' ass ... Gimme the shoes off yo' feet and the shirt off yo' back. I bought 'em ... Yeah, I'm yo' wife. Go run tell Corey that!"

THAT DOGGONE NENE, BABY!! I used to think she was so ghetto, but the way she got in Greg's behind in this last episode showed how powerful she really is.

And yes, I was bored stiff to sit here and type this rant word-for-word ...

Not even a little bit. She can't even carry a tune...in fact she's tone deaf I think.

I know one thang: My man got ONE time to talk to me the way Peter talked to Cynthia, and he wouldn't have a mouth to talk WITH when I'm done with him. I'm a child to only two people, ... my mother and my father ... PERIOD.

By the way, ... Kim's jump-off, ... what's her name? Tracy, is it? I hope no one thinks I'm making fun of her, but does she have cerebral palsy or something? Her speech was a little ... I don't know, ... slurred and incoherent it seemed. I paid close attention to how fidgety she was as she waited for the race to begin, and to be honest, she showed very clear signs of a heroine addict. I noticed Kim was doing a lot of the same twitchy fidgety type stuff during that scene, too. Anyone else notice this?

Hopefully, you would correct him without hitting him or you would be worse than he is. You aren't his child and he damn sure isn't your child (parents sometimes hit children for saying things).

I don't recall Peter talking to Cynthia any kind of way. Perhaps I raised my eyebrow once but really just because I could sense his frustration due to his restaurant situation.

General statement/
Couples have disagreements and the disagreement can be perceived differently depending on the audience. Otherwise awesome couples could be viewed quite differently if there was a camera there to catch them in their rougher moments. There is a way to disagree and there are things that should never be said or done--but if people don't expect for couples to sometimes bring out their frustrations and anxieties on each other, they will be sadly mistaken. People tend to be the meanest to those who are the closest to them and those who they know will not go away; and will have their back after it's all said and done. Afterall, when you get home after a frustrating day, the partner (and/or children) is often the one who greets you even if you are pissed as hell and don't want to be bothered. That's also one reason why some people begin to abuse substances because they are constantly surrounded by people and see substances as their only escape.

I think Tracy is pretty and I also think her speech is due to an accent.

I felt the same way about Peter.

I read somewhere that Peter is West Indian so he may still have a slight accent.

Honestly, when I first saw Tracey and heard her speak, I thought she was high.
