Kim Kardashian: Family, Kanye, Skims, Paris, Larsa, Lewis Hamilton & Keeping Up (w/ Jonathan Van Meter) II
“There’s no better feeling in the world than when someone gets you.” That is what Kim Kardashian said about Jonathan Van Meter who just finished a five year long deep dive book, “Citizen Kim: The Woman Who Created The Future”, into the one and only Kim K. Along with Kim’s help, Jonathan chatted with the rest of the fam, Kim’s 6 lifers and more. We talk Kourtney, Khloe, Kris, Kylie, Kendall, Kanye, Skims, SNL, Paris Hilton, the Kardashian men and All’s Fair. Citizen Kim does not treat Kim Kardashian as a punchline, a scandal, or a flat symbol. It treats Kim as one of the defining figures of this century and asks, seriously, how she became possible and what her astonishing rise says about the world we now live in. Jonathan, as we like to say, mentions it all! Part II starts now. @jonathanvanmeter @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope BROUGHT TO YOU BY: QUINCE - quince.com/velvetrope (Get Free Shipping and 365 Day Returns to As You Indulge In Affordable Luxury) PROGRESSIVE - www.progressive.com (Visit Progressive.com So You Can Be Sure To Get The Right Coverage For You) HULU’s THE MOB - (Watch The New Hulu Original Series The Mob Now Streaming On Hulu and Hulu On Disney Plus For Bundle Subscribers) REAL REAL - realreal.com/velvetrope ($25 Off Your First Purchase On The Most Trusted Name In Authenticated Luxury Resale) POM - pomwonderful.com (Check Out POM Wonderful Antioxidant Super Teas) ADVERTISING INQUIRIES - Please contact David@advertising-execs.com MERCH Available at - https://www.teepublic.com/stores/behind-the-velvet-rope?ref_id=13198 Learn more about your ad choices.

This season of RHONY, which Andy Cohen claims is his absolute favorite show on Bravo right now, has won those who are watching over, but many are still not watching. Hailey Glassman has been labeled the “Sonja Morgan” of the rebooted reboot for her quirkiness, but beneath the surface many rumors and nastiness surrounding Ms. Glassman have come forth. Heather Gay is in her mean girl era. Lisa Barlow has been vindicated, kinda. Ramona Singer teaches us a thing or two about a thing or two. Last, but not least, the truth about Andy Cohen and his boyfriend Kevin is exposed. @psychicdeborahgraham @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope BROUGHT TO YOU BY: QUINCE - quince.com/velvetrope (Get Free Shipping and 365 Day Returns to As You Indulge In Affordable Luxury) HULU’s THE MOB - (Watch The New Hulu Original Series The Mob Now Streaming On Hulu and Hulu On Disney Plus For Bundle Subscribers) REAL REAL - realreal.com/velvetrope ($25 Off Your First Purchase On The Most Trusted Name In Authenticated Luxury Resale) POM - pomwonderful.com (Check Out POM Wonderful Antioxidant Super Teas) PROGRESSIVE - www.progressive.com (Visit Progressive.com So You Can Be Sure To Get The Right Coverage For You) ADVERTISING INQUIRIES - Please contact David@advertising-execs.com MERCH Available at - https://www.teepublic.com/stores/behind-the-velvet-rope?ref_id=13198 Learn more about your ad choices.

Vicki's Good & Bad News, Jeff & Gage's Sick Twisted Game & Ramona The Singer Stinger Dominates
Vicki Gunvalson has managed to anger fans worldwide this season on RHOC and RHUGT but do not count her out just yet. As this RHOC season heads into reunion time, rumors and nastiness arise that Vicki may just live to see another day. Sorry folks. Jeff Lewis and Gage Edwards’ sick little games reach a new level. The Golden Life is trying to make it marks with mixed reviews, poor ratings and one Singer Stinger who just does not seem to wanna play this time around. @psychicdeborahgraham @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope BROUGHT TO YOU BY: REAL REAL - realreal.com/velvetrope ($25 Off Your First Purchase On The Most Trusted Name In Authenticated Luxury Resale) POM - pomwonderful.com (Check Out POM Wonderful Antioxidant Super Teas) PROGRESSIVE - www.progressive.com (Visit Progressive.com So You Can Be Sure To Get The Right Coverage For You) HULU’s THE MOB - (Watch The New Hulu Original Series The Mob Now Streaming On Hulu and Hulu On Disney Plus For Bundle Subscribers) QUINCE - quince.com/velvetrope (Get Free Shipping and 365 Day Returns to As You Indulge In Affordable Luxury) ADVERTISING INQUIRIES - Please contact David@advertising-execs.com MERCH Available at - https://www.teepublic.com/stores/behind-the-velvet-rope?ref_id=13198 Learn more about your ad choices.

Tabatha Coffey steps Behind The Rope!!!! Checking in from her home directly across the river in good ole’ New Jersey, Tabatha is here to - discuss - it - all!! Tabatha starts at the beginning - finishing third and winning “Fan Fav” on the freshman season of Shear Genius. Tabatha chats Tabatha’s Salon Takeover, what it was like to be a Bravolebrity at that time with colleagues such as Rachel Zoe, Jeff Lewis, Patti Stanger, Jackie Warner, Vicki Gunvalson and a singer you may have heard of by the name of Paula Abdul (“Hey Paula” fans rejoice!).

Rinna, we are talking to you. Being from NJ, we discuss Tab’s neighbors Tre, Mel, Marge, whether Tabatha would ever consider joining the franchise and where Housewives should go next.

Tracy Tutor Comes In Strong, Vicki & Shannon's Last RHOC Season & Dinner At Sutton's House
The world has turned on Vicki Gunvalson as Andy Cohen claims she is not that bad but are Andy’s kind words enough for the OG of the OC to keep her job? We think no and offer some advice, albeit unsolicited, to the founder of Coto Insurance. Shannon Beador may also be past her expiration date even though she would like to remind us of the twelve consecutive seasons she has had. Andy Cohen is worried about his boyfriend Kevin. Sutton Stracke hosts a dinner party of all dinner parties but that did not stop the RHOBH from causing drama during it. Fans revolt against Dorit and Tracy Tutor sure does make her mark. Rachel Zoe take note. @patriksimpson @polatteu @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope BROUGHT TO YOU BY: POM - pomwonderful.com (Check Out POM Wonderful Antioxidant Super Teas) REAL REAL - realreal.com/velvetrope ($25 Off Your First Purchase On The Most Trusted Name In Authenticated Luxury Resale) PROGRESSIVE - www.progressive.com (Visit Progressive.com So You Can Be Sure To Get The Right Coverage For You) HULU’s THE MOB - (Watch The New Hulu Original Series The Mob Now Streaming On Hulu and Hulu On Disney Plus For Bundle Subscribers) AUDIBLE - audible.com/VELVET (New Members Start Listening w/ a 30 Day Free Trial This Massive Library Of Audiobooks & Ad-Free Podcasts) NATURES SUNSHINE - naturessunshine.com (Use Code Velvetrope For 20% Off Your First Order Plus Free Shipping On Clean, Natural Supplements For Cognitive Support, Healthy Skin & More) TIMELINE- Timeline.com/VELVETROPE (Timeline Is Offering a 15 Day Trial Of The Mitopure Resurfacing Exfoliator For Just $22) INDEED - indeed.com/PODCAST (Seventy Five Dollar $75 Sponsored Job Credit To Get Your Job The Premium Status It Deserves) ADVERTISING INQUIRIES - Please contact David@advertising-execs.com MERCH Available at - https://www.teepublic.com/stores/behind-the-velvet-rope?ref_id=13198 Learn more about your ad choices.
