this week that reason is the fact that the episode begins with Whitney planning a garden party and singing an elaborate song (limerick?) about her friends for no apparent reason. And then, before we can even recover from that, Mary wonders why Whitney chose the venue that she did, informing us that the former owner killed his wife and himself on Christmas Day in front of their dog.
ALISON BEARD: I'm Alison Beard. ADI IGNATIUS: I'm Adi Ignatius. This is HBR IdeaCast. ALISON BEARD: Adi, you are very familiar with both of the guests on today's show. One is a comedian and talk show host, Jimmy Fallon. The other is a marketing executive turned reality TV star, Bozoma Saint John. But what they have in common beyond TV is an expertise on how to create breakthrough moments for themselves, their offerings, and all of the brands that they're associated with.
Living in the mansion, she says, was like the sorority experience she never got to have. "[Our room] was the party room," the 65-year-old health care CEO and mom of three tells Bustle, recalling delightfully hectic getting-ready scenes. "We'd have one in the shower, one on the toilet, one brushing her teeth, and one putting makeup on. And not just mascara - I mean, full face, just chatting. It was a blast."
the first season of The Celebrity Traitors has officially put its hoods up and selected its evil-doers with an 8 October premiere. Much like the regular seasons, the assembled cast will compete in challenges in order to build up a prize pot. But while the Faithful will aim to root the Traitors out to ensure a fair split between charities of each star's choosing in the final episode, the Traitors will pick the Faithful off murder-by-murder.
Whitney Rose is a civil-rights leader for redheads. Luckily for Lisa Barlow, she didn't even realize that she had called her a "redhead" derogatorily last week until the episode aired, when she posted a lengthy message bravely standing up for all of those with the hair color. Her storming out wasn't even about that, and, as it turns out, was only temporary. She tells us she just wanted to remove herself for a little bit until Lisa "tuckered herself out."
Ladies and gay gentlemen, I have some very sad news. You know the handy-dandy Beef Chart, the one that we've been referring to all season to keep track of who is mad at whom and why? It died. Yes, the Beef Chart is dead. This show worked it to death. The Beef Chart decided it could no longer go on and chose to self-immolate rather than add one more beef to itself.
Announced today (2 October) via a video posted to Drag Race production company World of Wonder's social media accounts featuring Mama Ru herself, the next instalment is getting ready to snatch wigs, with applicants able to submit applications until 14 November. "If you have the Charisma, Uniqueness, Nerve, and Talent it takes to become America's Next Drag Superstar, we want to hear from you!" the post reads, with a link to the application portal. And with some spooky white contacts, Mama Ru says in the video: "Casting for season 19 of RuPaul's Drag Race is now open."
Bronwyn Newport believes that if you dress for the part, it will come. "The right event comes my way when I have the right outfit," the Real Housewives of Salt Lake City star says, en route to an appointment with Christian Siriano. Fortunately, between the fashion week circuit and her press appearances for RHOSLC's newly premiered Season 6 - including a stop by Watch What Happens Live planned for tonight - Newport has no shortage of opportunities to get dolled up these days.
This Project Runway season has been a roller coaster, especially frustrating because of how often it felt like the series was shortchanging us in terms of what we watch it for (design time, mentoring time!) and being overloaded with drama. But also, this format just works as a reality competition, especially for people who watch these shows for a glimpse into specialized processes that they may not themselves know how to do, and I'm including myself in that group.
Six blood-soaked regular seasons, one Resurrection special and an All Stars-esque Titans later, and The Boulet Brothers are ready to say "Hello, Uglies" - again. Hosted by Dracmorda and Swanthula Boulet, the cast of Titans sees drag performers return for another go at swiping the crown, title of 'Ultimate Titan of Dragula ', unlimited bragging rights and a hefty cash prize of $100,000. But whereas on Drag Race, queens get to the top with splits, smiles and charm, Dragula is a hell of a lot more blood-soaked.
That's right: We're launching directly into the first cast trip, not even bothering to waste time with boring filler scenes of them putzing around their kitchen islands or making small talk with their children. But the twist is that Angie and Mary are the only ones who know what this mystery trip entails. All of the other women, who are waiting outside Beauty Lab + Laser (which apparently now doubles as a mass-transit stop), have no idea where they're heading but were told it's somewhere luxurious. So imagine their shock when an RV rolls up. Britani even showed up in a bikini as if a whole pool were about to pull up to the curb.
"You have to be strong minded as a prison officer," Andrew said. "If you're working in a prison environment for 30 years of your life, you have to be able to take things as they come. It's an ever- changing environment. Absolutely, I do think it did (help.)"
School term begins, parliament returns to session, new novels flood the market for awards season, and television and radio stations air their latest programmes. Among all the new starts, though, many people want to go back to basics. An episode of L'amour est dans le Pre (Love is in the Meadow) can do the job. The most popular dating show in France just premiered its 20th season, and 3.6 million fans (19% of the total TV audience) were glued to their sofas.
When she was offered the lead on the show, Paul told " Call Her Daddy" host Alex Cooper that she had to think long and hard about the filming schedule and its impact on her children before saying yes. "I'm a co-parent. I have two baby daddies, not one, so I'm dealing with two different people; my children, my home base is here. Can I travel that long? Can I be gone that long?" she said she asked herself.
On Monday (8 September), Channel 4 revealed the brave singles who are ready to say "I do" on their way to their hopeful happily ever-after. The programme features individuals, matched up by relationship experts, Paul C Brunson, Melanie Schilling and Charlene Douglas, who meet for the first time at the altar before jetting off on a honeymoon to see whether they can make it together or not.
Love or money? It's the question of the summer - not just in the ongoing Materialists discourse but on the beaches of Costa Rica, where Bachelor Nation singles assembled for a chance to find their forever person. Bachelor in Paradise Season 10 shook things up by introducing a cash prize, which led to an unexpected outcome during the finale on Sept. 2.
