Taylor Armstrong Has Another Drunken Meltdown,Yolanda Hadid Confirms Joining a Show; Camille Talks Forgiveness!
You know it’s bad when a show sounds like a major train wreck before it even airs. Not surprisingly, that seems to be the case with the third season of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, thanks to Taylor Armstrong, queen of the psychotic meltdowns…as evidenced last season. Already there have been reports of her heavy drinking, even getting wasted at Kyle Richards’ daughter’s birthday. Also disturbing about her behavior at the toddler’s party? It occurred in front of Taylor’s young daughter Kennedy. Now there are new reports of Taylor’s disturbing antics being filmed on a recent spa weekend to Ojai, California.
A source tells RadarOnline.com, “Taylor was wasted from the moment she appeared in the morning until the moment she collapsed at night. It was a horrific sight to see. She totally lost control of her emotions and her temper. She is an absolute complete mess, but she refuses to acknowledge that she has a problem.”

The insider continues, “She was drinking heavily while she was dealing with the breakup from Russell [Armstrong], but since his suicide it has spiraled further and further out-of-control. I am truly frightened as to what will happen to her if she does not get help immediately.”
“Taylor’s drinking is out-of-control. She doesn’t have just 10 drinks, she has like 30 or 40 and she’s a mess. Over the trip Taylor would say the nastiest things to everyone,” confirms a second source. “As soon as she had a drop of alcohol she would start spewing hateful things, it shocked everybody.”
“She isn’t as relevant as she was and she is desperate to stay on the show but the things she says are outrageous and they’re making everyone furious. She caused major drama all weekend. The fights were non-stop, and she was a mess.” Thirty to forty drinks? How is she alive? Seriously? That is way beyond serious alcohol poisoning territory, isn’t it?
“Taylor was all over the place while the cast was shooting at the Ojai Valley Inn,” cites a third source who witnessed Taylor’s binge drinking meltdown. “She would start drinking very, very early in the day. The ladies are all very concerned about her, especially Kyle. They have spoken off camera about their desire for Taylor to stop drinking, but so far, nothing has happened. Taylor had a catastrophic meltdown on camera during the trip that will truly shock viewers when they see it on air this fall.” Um, after watching her erratic and irrational behavior in season two, I don’t know if anything she did would truly shock me.
“Taylor is headed down a very dangerous road and she doesn’t think she has a problem at all with alcohol. Kyle and Lisa [Vanderpump] fear for Taylor’s daughter, Kennedy, because she has already lost her father to suicide and her mother could suffer a similar fate they fear if Taylor doesn’t go to rehab,” worries the eyewitness. That poor little girl…all the uber-expensive birthday parties in the world could never make up for being in the middle of this mess.
A new report from RadarOnline, claims the Housewives are begging her to save her career by not drinking on camera. “The women have pulled Taylor aside and begged her to stop drinking when cameras are rolling because of her behavior, which only gets worse the more she drinks,” a source reveals. “Taylor is in complete denial about her problem and doesn’t think she has an issue.”
The source adds, “She got extremely angry with the women when they made their request, she accused them of ganging up on her and told them to mind their own business. The ladies are just so concerned for her well being and health because of Taylor’s growing dependence on alcohol.”
“Viewers are going to be shocked this season when they see Taylor’s actions after she drinks,” the source shares. “Yes, it will make for great television, but at what cost?”
Another report by Tamara Tattle said Taylor was trashed at Andy Cohen’s book party and that the other Housewives avoided her.
Maybe Taylor will finally come to the realization that reality television isn’t where her time is best spent these days. Of course, another housewife is gearing up for her debut. (Not my best segue, I’ll admit! ) After months of speculation, Yolanda Hadid is confirming her spot on the Bravo franchise. The newbie tells hollyscoop.com, “Yes, I have actually formally joined [the show]. We started filming about two weeks ago and we’re in the full goings of it.”
Despite the rumors of the booze-fueled meltdowns (see above), Yolanda insists that she hasn’t seen much drama. Perhaps she’s just been lounging poolside with Adrienne Maloof and dining at Sur. “I love them, it’s a great group of women and we’re going to have fun so keep watching,” she reveals to the site.
As for the housewife Yolanda is purportedly replacing, Camille Grammer relays to HollywoodLife.com her reason for not making a full return to the third season. “Kelsey [Grammer] would not sign off to let our kids appear on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. It’s silly because if I am on the show, it only makes sense to occasionally have my kids on the show. They are my life,” explains Camille.
In spite of this twist, Camille claims to be in a very good place, and she is accepting the changes that have come with divorce. She admits, “I had to go to hell to get to heaven. At times I didn’t think I had it in me, but I do. When Kelsey left me, here I was this single mom with two kids. I was terrified. Of course I had help and the support of my family, but it was still very scary.”
“I have a very strong family,” she reveals, citing her mother as a huge source of support. “My mom always tells me, ‘You do it for you children!’ You also have to do a lot of work on yourself. I have worked a lot on myself and I consider myself a spiritual person…I have learned to forgive Kelsey and have appreciation.”
Camille “Forgiveness and gratitude are so important. If you don’t forgive, it will eat you up and make you sick. I read a lot of books on forgiveness and went to a spiritual psychologist. Actually my spiritual psychologist is Tammy, one of Kelsey’s ex-fiancées.” What? No Allison Dubois?

More Snooki Wedding Details Revealed! Plus Is She Having A Girl?
Snooki and fiance Jionni LaValle are so happy in love, but the couple is NOT planning to say “I Do!” until Snookers looses the pregnancy pounds. An insider reports the wedding won’t be happening for at least another year!
A friend of the Jersey Shore star reveals that Snooki plans to include her little one in the ceremony which is another reason she wants to postpone. And there is “no way” she will be incorporating a baby bump into her wedding dress!
As for why the star, who is approximately 6 months along has eschewed maternity clothes her friend tells WetPaint, Snooki “doesn’t like them.”
In more Snooki news, the pint sized guidette was recently spotted shopping – in the little girls department of the toy store! According to RadarOnline, Snooki and BFF JWoww were shopping on Madison Avenue in NYC where Snooki was seen holding a pink giraffe toy. What, not a leopard?
DO YOU THINK SNOOKI IS HAVING A GIRL?
Has Lisa Vanderpump Become A Diva? Plus Yolanda Hadid’s Divorce Details & Camille To Make RHOBH Cameos!
Another day, another drama as the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills continue shooting the third season of the Bravo hit.
Oh Lisa, Lisa, Lisa…have you learned nothing from Jill Zarin and Teresa Giudice? Getting too big for your Chanel baubles leads to nothing but co-star–and fan!–backlash. RadarOnline is reporting that Lisa Vanderpump has gotten a tad cocky in light of her recent spin-off. A source tells the site, “There are a lot of bad feelings because Lisa got her own show and Taylor [Armstrong] for one thinks that Lisa has been acting like a diva during filming. Taylor and Lisa had gotten close after Russell’s suicide last year, but Taylor now feels like that was all done for the cameras.”
“The Housewives are jealous that Lisa got so much attention at the recent up fronts in New York City,” the insider goes on to say. However, “Lisa does have one very vocal supporter among the cast though, Brandi Glanville. Brandi thinks it’s fantastic that Lisa got her own show and of course, she wants to appear on that show as well.” No shocker there!

The source claims that Lisa wasn’t keen on returning for a third run with the lavish ladies who lunch, citing, “Lisa is acting like she deserves to have her own show and that the other ladies should be grateful that she agreed to appear on this current season of Housewives. The only reason Lisa agreed to come back for the third season was because she was getting her own show on Bravo and it was part of the contract deal she signed. Lisa is a very smart businesswoman and she dismisses the other ladies feelings because she believes they are jealous. Lisa didn’t get to where she is in life without ruffling feathers.”
A second source (they’re just coming out of the woodwork, aren’t they?) alleges that Lisa is hoping to divide and conquer as she pits her former frienemies against each other. The insider asserts, “Lisa is always trying to make the women take her side in any situation and divide them up and make them fight against each other. She’s been so nasty that the other women are furious that she seems to think that she’s the biggest star in the show.”
Yet another source is waiting on the drama to start between Lisa and the newbie housewife, stating,“There is definitely going to be tension between Yolanda Hadid, David Foster’s wife, and Lisa over some past legal wrangles that have gone on.” I wonder if this means we will being seeing less of Mo and his mermaid parties this year?
Speaking of my favorite reveler, as you know, Yolanda was married to Mohamed Hadid for eight years, and the couple have three children together. After divorcing in 2003, Yolanda got quite the divorce settlement. RadarOnline has learned that Yolanda “retained ownership of the Santa Barbara mansion, a $6 million dollar Malibu property, an Arabian horse, sole ownership of Hadid Interiors, several bank accounts , a Range Rover and an Escalade.”
In addition to paying for private school and a full time nanny, Mohamed pays Yolanda $30,000 a month in child support. She also received a one-time lump sum payment in the amount of $3.6 million and was getting $10,000 a month is spousal support until marrying acclaimed musical producer David Foster. Mohamed did get to keep the couple’s primary residence which is featured on the show, as well as the Mexican vacation home, but Yolanda is free to use the getaway whenever she pleases. The pair share joint custody of their children, and Mohamed maintains a million dollar life insurance policy which names Yolanda and the kids as the beneficiaries. That sounds like a pretty amicable split to me! It’s worth noting that the couple had a pre-nup, but it was declared null and void once the settlement agreement was executed. Kind of makes you wonder about it’s terms, doesn’t it?
Yolanda is stepping in to fill the shoes of Camille Grammer, who left the show to avoid her kids being filmed. However, that doesn’t rule out the possibility of a comeback, as Camille has already been seen filming little tidbits here and there a la Orange County’s Jeana Keough. A Bravo source tells RadarOnline, “Producers of the show have tremendous respect for Camille and there was always the possibility that she would appear on the current season which recently began filming. Camille has great chemistry with the fellow Housewives and viewers were very vocal about their displeasure when it was announced that she wasn’t going to be returning.”
“Camille went to Portia’s birthday party at Kyle [Richards]‘s house on Saturday. Kim Richards, Adrienne Maloof and Taylor Armstrong were all there and very happy to see Camille,” a party guest relays to the site. “The ladies seem to have great chemistry and hadn’t seen in other in a while. It was a lovely afternoon and the birthday girl was lovingly doted on by her parents. Kyle has made it clear to producers of the show that she wants Camille back on for good, and she usually gets what she wants!”
I personally was sad to see Camille exit stage left, so I am excited to get to see her at least a little bit on the upcoming season.

Lindsay Lohan Threatens Legal Action Against Man Claiming He Was Hit By Her Car
By Jen Heger – Radar Legal Editor
Lindsay Lohan is putting on notice the Hookah manager who claims she hit him with her Porsche as she left a Hollywood nightclub that if he files a civil lawsuit against her the actress will counter-sue and will hold him responsible for the allegations he has made, RadarOnline.com is exclusively reporting.
As we previously reported Lohan, 25, was leaving Sayers Club in Hollywood shortly after midnight last Wednesday in her new black Porsche when she was blocked by a swarm of paparazzi and club patrons from the nearby Hookah Lounge.
As she attempted to navigate a three point turn to get out of the alley, she allegedly grazed the manager of the Hookah Lounge. Initially, a source close to the situation told RadarOnline.com, the manager told cops at the scene that he wasn’t hit by the car, but after finding out that Lohan was the driver, the manager went to a hospital emergency room, lawyered up and changed his story.

“Lindsay won’t be taken advantage of by this opportunist, which he clearly is. Lindsay has told her attorney, Shawn Holley, to convey to the Hookah manger’s lawyer that if he files a lawsuit against her Lindsay will come back at him with everything she has,” a source close to the situation tells RadarOnline.com. “Lindsay will immediately file a counter-suit against him, for libel, defamation and other claims. Lindsay is in the midst of a comeback right now and she won’t let this guy try and make a quick buck off of her. If he is smart he should recognize that he has no facts to support his allegations and take this no further.”
As RadarOnline.com previously reported, the Hookah manger’s credibility is already under scrutiny because he has changed his story several times. “Let’s be very clear, he has changed his story significantly. Officers on the scene specifically asked the man if the car had hit him and he was absolutely emphatic that it hadn’t, nor had he claimed it hit his car,” a law enforcement source told RadarOnline.com. “Several hours later, the man’s newly hired lawyer called the Hollywood division of the LAPD and said that his client wanted to provide a statement because he was the victim of a hit and run accident. The manager claimed that he was in shock after the accident and that his foot began hurting and went to the hospital. He now says there is no doubt that Lindsay drove over his foot and fled the scene.”
Meanwhile, Lindsay vehemently denies hitting the man, and declared on her Twitter account, “Scrape? This is all a complete lie. I’ve been at community service. Last night, I attempted to wish a friend happy birthday, which I didn’t even get to do because I was freaked out by all of the paparazzi. These false accusations are absurd.”

The Mean Girls star will have her final progress report hearing on Thursday, March 29 and if she successfully completes the remainder of her court ordered community service and therapy sessions she will be off formal probation.
“Lindsay immediately notified her probation officer about the allegations the manager had made against her. She is doing everything required of her, she is so close to the end of her legal issues and she doesn’t want this to trigger a whole new round of legal problems,” the insider says.

Majority Of RHOBH Cast To Be Asked Back For Season 3! Taylor Armstrong Wants To Invite Russell’s Sons To Daughter’s Birthday Party! Paul Nassif Gets Restraining Order!
Well, I really hate to be the bearer of potential bad news, but according to the gossip, Bravo will be asking the entire current Real Housewives of Beverly Hills cast to return for round three. And yes, that includes fan-least-favorite, Taylor Armstrong!
Apparently, she has some fans, as her book is a best-seller! An insider close to the situation told RadarOnline, “Taylor, Lisa Vanderpump, Adrienne Maloof, Brandi Glanville, and Kyle Richards will all be asked to return.”
While Taylor worried she would be on the chopping block, her marital meltdown and subsequent domestic abuse saga proved to be ratings gold for the show. Her rumored return conflicts with reports that Bravo sees her as a liability due to her legal issues, which may involve the network directly. Personally, I think a lot of people tuned in for shock value, not because the show was enjoyable – but I could be wrong! I’m surprised any of these women would come back following this awful season, but lord knows they love attention!
And per previous reports, Camille Grammer has lost interest in the show – likely after being embroiled in Taylor’s lies accusations. “Bravo would love Camille to return too, but she might want to move on to other projects which she has expressed interest in.”
Also, looking for a new job, Kim! “Kim Richards, has made it known she doesn’t want to come back. Kim is still very fragile after her latest stint in rehab,” an insider close to the situation reveals.
Apparently, Lisa’s return is bittersweet as she was hoping her spin off would get picked up. Lisa has also expressed reservations about participating in another season after two of her former friends, trashed her during the reunion. “Lisa was hoping to follow in the footsteps of New York housewife Bethenny Frankel who had her own successful spin-offs focusing on her wedding and new baby, but the network decided not to pick up her show,” a RHOBH source said.
No contracts have been extended, but Bravo is said to be formally making an offer to the ladies in the next few weeks. To replace some of the leaving co-tarts, Bravo is still searching for new women to join the cast and hopefully bring back the fun. “The network is actively looking for new cast members for the third season,” the insider adds. Taping for the third season is expect to begin on July 4th. Well, that sounds like disappointing news, no?
Moving on to Taylor Armstrong. Radar Online is reporting today that Taylor wants to invite the kids of her deceased husband, Russell Armstrong, to her daughter Kennedy‘s upcoming birthday party. Russell, who committed suicide last August, has two sons from previous relationships - Aiden, 13, with ex-wife Barbara Fredrickson, and Griffin, 12, with ex-girlfriend Milette Fields.
While Taylor and Russell have been known to throw extremely expensive, over-the-top birthday parties for Kennedy–case in point the $65,000 they spent for her 4th birthday–Taylor is reportedly planning to throw a low-key event for Kennedy’s upcoming 6th birthday.
“It was Russell that always pushed to have the over the top parties, he would always invite his business associates to try and impress them,” a source close to the situation tells Radar. “Taylor wants to invite Kennedy’s siblings so they can hopefully begin to have a closer relationship. Taylor feels that the party could be a good jumping off point for that to happen. Taylor isn’t close with Russell’s exes, but she recognizes this isn’t about the adults, but what is best for their children. All three of the kids don’t have a father anymore and they need each other now more than ever.”
And finally, Dr. Paul Nassif has done got himself an alleged stalker! No, it’s not a lady trying to convince him that Adrienne is undeserving of his love and adorableness, it’s a former patient who doesn’t like his new nose!
TMZ reports that Paul is seeking a restraining order against former patient, Roman Melikov, claiming he has harassed and threatened Paul and his family! Oh, no – I hope Jackpot is ok!
According to a police report filed by Paul, Mr. Melikov incessantly called his office demanding to speak to him directly. He threatened, “If I don’t get to f**king talk to Dr. Nassif, I will just show up and f**king wait for him to talk to me because he needs to f**king pay for this!”
What really alarmed Paul and his staff was a voicemail Mr. Melikov left, in which he referred to himself as “psycho!” And another where he threatened to come to Paul’s house to “have Nassif’s wife help him out of pity.”
After several of these verbal threats, Paul’s staff became concerned that Mr. Melikov was mentally unstable, and would come to the office “and do something crazy.” Paul is seeking a restraining order to keep Mr. Melikov away from him and his family. Mr. Melikov in exchange wants a $26,000 refund for the nose he claims Paul screwed up.
Mr. Melikov attests that the swelling didn’t go down for two years, and his nose is now bigger and uglier post surgery! He also insists Paul took his “psycho” comment completely out of context. Melikov, a 25-year-old portfolio manager, claims he was actually referring to the stock market when he used the chosen word, as in: “I told him I had to be a psycho to invest in this market, because it has been so volatile.”
Sounds like Paul should just give him a refund. Maybe he and Adrienne really are broke!
ARE YOU SURPRISED TO LEARN THE ENTIRE RHOBH CAST WILL BE ASKED BACK? IS TAYLOR REALLY AS UNPOPULAR AS PEOPLE THINK? IS TAYLOR GENUINE IN REACHING OUT TO RUSSELL’S SONS? DOES PAUL OWE HIS DISGRUNTLED EX-PATIENT A REFUND?
