@TurtleWexlerKickedMe: I would normally agree, but with these two, I really think that is what's going on. Neither is a particularly complex person and their values are massively tied up with looks — Gretchen, I suspect, because she's freaked about getting older and Vicki, I suspect, because she was not one of the

@bluebears: And she raised really entitled, snotty kids (except maybe the youngest). The daughter last year, with her snide comments about liberal kids at Berkley, just killed me. I hope they are getting a bit of humility from all of this. Unlikely, I know, but a girl can dream. #realhousewivesoftheocpremiere

@lolabee: I find I hate these two with a white hot passion. The other three are pretty harmless. I think it's the unwarranted smugness of Tamra and Vicki that gets me — and the unbridled mean-girlness. #realhousewivesoftheocpremiere

@ericacartman: And I respect the fact that she knows that is doesn't apologize for it. She's the diva I'd choose to hang with — Whitney's too messed up and Aretha seems too cranky. #mariahcareylarrykinglive

Everything about Kim Z is a bad thing in my book. From her repellent relationship with a married man, to her creepy name for him, the rampant consumerism, the incapacity to see anything she does as wrong, and the blowsy, boozy, childish narcisissm. She brings out the east coast half-wasp in me, and makes me want to

@sarasasa: I didn't see the rest of the interview. This was plenty for me, I have to say. Beyond that, it seems prurient, as you suggest. #rihannainterview

@J.D.Regent: Yes. It had a mantra quality to it, and it sounded like the kind of thing people who loved her might have said to convince her not to listen to his entreaties. And I agree, it was raw and honest and both sad and impressive. #rihannainterview

It sounds as if she needs the "role model" stuff in a way to keep her from going back to him or caring for him or pitying him — like she still struggles with the love she had/has for him, which makes it even more poignant. #rihannainterview
