"As a mother myself, if my child committed a small, stupid, low-level crime and ended up in jail, I would want to teach them a lesson for sure," Cynthia explains in her Bravo blog. However, I would never want my child in a situation that could be dangerous or even fatal. I would worry myself to death! I believe in tough love, but I guess you really don't know how you will react until you are actually put in that situation. My heart really went out to NeNe, because I knew what she was going through. She was very conflicted, because even though Bryson is a young man, he is still her baby.  I'm just glad Bryson is OK, and I hope he learned his lesson. If he goes back again, Lord help him, because NeNe may just call the judge herself and tell him to keep him in there!"

Go nude. When it comes to makeup, Jennifer Aniston is no drama queen. Nude lipsticks and beige and brown eye shadows give her a subtle, natural beauty that never looks all done up.

Our favorite nudes:
• Lips: Yves Saint Laurent Rouge Volupté Silky-Sensual Radiant Lipstick SPF 15 in Nude Beige
• Eyes: Benefit Creaseless Cream Shadow/Liner in Birthday Suit and the Urban Decay Naked Palette











Stay active. Aniston doesn't always spend hours on a workout, but she does fit in at least 20 minutes of cardio daily—typically running or Spinning. She's also a yoga devotee and says the stretching exercises have improved her posture.


Show off your best assets.Aniston enjoys the fruits of her workout labors, proudly baring her toned arms and legs in strapless minidresses. She knows how to show off the features she's proud of.





Drink a lot of water. She may take three-minute showers to save water, but Aniston never goes thirsty: "I drink 100 ounces of Smartwater every day," she has said; that's the equivalent of 12 ½ glasses.

Tip: If drinking all that water sounds like a drag, try seltzer with a splash of juice—cranberry, pomegranate, orange, grapefruit, and pineapple all work.



Glow, but don't shine.Choosing a tinted moisturizer or sheer foundation and going easy on the powder gives Aniston a youthful look. The actress doesn't over-dew it either, avoiding oil-slick shininess.

A few to try for yourself:
• Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer SPF 20 gives a touch of color for a semimatte finish.
• L'Oréal Paris True Match Super-Blendable Makeup SPF 17 is light, smooth, and oil-free, with dozens of shades to match any skin tone.
• Nars Sheer Glow Foundation provides luminous, sheer coverage.

"I think I look pretty good for 43. But I don't look the way I did when I was 23," says Crawford. "So if Starmagazine or whatever wants to print a picture of me on the beach from the back, at the worst possible angle, and say that I have cellulite, I'm like, Guess what? I do, and I never said I didn't."


















"Basically, I take care of myself, but I don't want to be obsessive. And I don't want to not like who I am today. I'm all for fighting the good fight, but I don't care how much you work out or how much cream you put on—things change."




"In some ways, my skin is better now than it's ever been. I used to get more pimples, and my pores could look big. But through skin care, microdermabrasion, and possibly aging, my skin has gotten less oily and evened out a bit. Maybe it's my last hurrah before I start falling apart [laughs]."

From the Producer's Podium

The Fame Monster

Eric discusses the dangers of becoming "talent" for the show.

April 19, 2012Usually the producer on a television show is left in the shadows to do their job. Free from the trappings of the camera, we can do all the behind-the-scenes TV stuff without being outed to the viewing public.

But this is not a normal show...it's Kathy's show. And straight from my red headed boss herself, that apparently means I’ve been assigned as the dude parked at the podium right in Kathy’s eye line. I’m not complaining, really, but there is a pinch of pressure having a camera pointed at me for two hours a week with no break. Like Maggie, I might start to live in fear of “the runs” and might need to adjust my bathroom habits before we start to tape (an old word) every week. I’ll deal with that on my own time. It’s not your problem, and these concerns are my own. Please give me some privacy.

Anyway, back to me (the guy with the headset and glasses shaking his head) on the podium. I can deal with questions being hurled at me about anything and everything in front of a live astudio audience by one of the fastest and funniest people on the planet. Sure. Sign me up. But the part that I’m not into is that Andy Cohen apparently thinks I’m the show’s stage manager. WTF. Now no disrespect to stage managers at all, because that job is serious, but that’s not what I do. (I have a vague Liberal Arts B.A. so my options are limited and “television” is what I’m good at.) But then again, Andy isn’t really a TV host, he’s a Bravo executive. Can I say that? I don’t mean that in a bad way. He’s actually working two jobs and I feel his pain. Maybe he’ll empathize and put me on Watch What Happens Live! as a special guest?Point is, I found out about this additional position at the podium after I signed my contract. My agent is clearly looking out for me. But that’s a smaller conversation and I won’t bog you down with Hollywood technicalities. The real problem is Bravo asking me to write a blog at 11:37 at night when we have a show that ran almost two hours and needs to be trimmed down to 40-something minutes. Did I mention I am not complaining? I don’t like being accused of whining so please stop pointing your cyber-finger at me. I’m sensitive. 
Realization: Now that I’m on-camera, I’m considered “talent.” So next time I write this, I’m going to be really bitchy, hammered, and show up late to the set reeking of vodka and sadness. Wait, am I going to be famous? If that’s the case, I’m going to get a nose job immediately. Just need to find a way to get Bravo to pay for that. OK, I gotta head back into the edit of tonight’s show and make sure that Kathy’s ‘A+’ stuff and not her ‘A’ stuff gets in the show. She truly just doesn’t miss.

And on a serious-er (not a word?) note, I cannot wait until you all get to see Kathy tear it up each week. There’s been a lot of promotion for Kathy and I can assure you that this is one show that lives up to the hype. KG is simply hilarious and the show is not afraid to “go there”. So buckle up, set your DVRs for Kathy and read this blog each week to get your fix for all things Kathy from my (very close) perspective. I mean she is like 10 feet from me, people...

ELIMINATION INTERVIEW: LEIF POSTED ON APR 20, 2012 01:08PM We asked Leif questions that YOU (the fans!) sent in via Facebook and Twitter. Check out what he had to say about his time in the game here! Becky M.: What do you think your biggest mistake was? Leif: My biggest mistake was not voting for Tarzan last night because everything else panned out just fine except that. Also, on the one immunity challenge that I gave immunity to Chelsea. I could have easily won it. I should have won it and gave it to Jay. I had no idea they were voting Jay out. That came as a huge surprise. Amy C.: Leif did you have an alliance, or where you just banking on the fact that you weren't that big of a threat? Leif: It was both. I did have a slight alliance with some of the girls, or so I thought. That deteriorated really fast. One of my strategies was just to keep the target off of my back as long as possible. Antonette V.: Leif did you actually trust Tarzan and what did you think after finding out it was his vote that knocked you off? Leif: I know Tarzan and I had always had a lot of stories between each other and we stayed close in our little alliance but I guess that was just a really good front that he was putting up. I thought I had convinced him to vote for Kim but it didn't pan out and she got me out. That hurts. It hurts a lot. Danielle M.: What would you do differently? Leif: Probably the one thing I would do differently is vote for Tarzan. That was the deal breaker. Karl S.: Did you think that you would make it as far as you did? Leif: I was very excited to have made it that far. Very humble and grateful, I gave it 100% and I didn't stop. Knowing that makes it a lot easier in the end. Kathy L.: Leif, did you feel you were at a disadvantage in the game? You played with a lot of heart! Leif: I guess one of the disadvantages that I felt in the game was not really being taken serious. I know being a little person is a lot harder to convince people of what you want and for people to take you serious. So that was hard and definitely a disadvantage. Robi E.: What was harder, learning to make fire or learning to fish? Leif: Luckily, I grew up learning how to fish... living in the wilderness and going camping a lot when I was younger came in handy. They were both pretty easy but I guess I would have to go with fire - making fire is easier. Kathy R.: If given the chance Leif, would you play the game again? Leif: In a heartbeat. I would play again. There is nothing more unique than being out there. It is the number one thing I have done in my entire life, tied with marrying my beautiful wife and having my daughter.

Is Zoila Defecting?

Zoila Chavez

March 21, 2012When I was walking up to this house, I was thinking, "God *#@^ it. Jeffrey's going make me clean this?"Bob and Kira have a big big house. When I met and saw them for a few days, I liked them. He is a good boss with the employees and treats people nicely.The stuff inside their house looked like he saved a lot of things. He's a little like a nice hoarder, like me. Maybe his things are more expensive than Zoila's, like the $200,000 magic carpet. Sorry Bob -- Jeffrey doesn't like people like us to hold onto things. One time I came home from my weekend away and found my closet reorganized and half my clothes donated. Jeffrey's a bad boy.Jeffrey likes this client because they have a chef and a jacuzzi and many people that waited on him. For me, I liked that someone else was cleaning (a few people), someone else managed the house, and there was a tennis court. I loved playing the tennis.The gallery was amazing to see after. I was so scared to even touch the frames because I thought the art was so expensive. That is what I was telling Jeffrey a lot, "Sorry I didn't clean because I worried I'll breaking." Bob and Kira were so happy and they will be able to do a lot of nice things with the new gallery and making money for charities.Watch out Jeffrey Lewis -- maybe Mr. Bob wants Zoila to clean all the time? Maybe I will be the supervisor of the housekeepers?
