Last night on the premiere of the new season of The Bachelor, the world got to meet a whole new cast of women out to win bachelor Ben Flajnik’s affections. Most of them were the predictably forgettable tanned dental hygienists and account managers of seasons gone by. But producers outdid themselves by casting the show’s first Blogger contestant.
Jenna Burke describes herself as a freelance writer, but ABC simply lists her occupation as “Blogger.” We suspect that means she is “unemployed,” but she is certainly a reality TV force to be reckoned with. Here’s what we learned about Jenna last night. More »
Everything I read about this couple just makes me more and more depressed. More »
Rachel Zoe’s uber gay former assistant Brad Goreski is striking back at his mentor in the name of publicity for his new Zoe-Free Bravo show It’s a Brad, Brad World. Basically, Brad’s pissed that Rachel called him out on being a user and is responding by being insanely passive aggressive towards her as a means to promote his new show.
But Brad could stand to learn a bit from his former boss when it comes to public cat fighting. More »

We have finally reached the end of the season 3 Real Housewives of New Jersey saga. After watching this, I felt the urge to throw back a few Fabullinis and take a relaxing bath, thinking, “Thank God it’s over.” Yet, with all the new revelations on the reunion, I just can’t wait for season 4! More »
Usually here at Crushable, we concern ourselves with the birthdays of celebrities who are usually actors, musicians, or some other entertainment industry personality. But you know, science-y people have birthdays, too, and luckily, today coincides with the birthday of someone who is both science-y AND pop culture-y: Grant Imahara of Mythbusters! In honor of the occasion, we’ve taken the opportunity to provide Grant and the entire Mythbusters team with a drinking game to be played with their very fine television program. Ready to blow some stuff up? Here we go! More »
I’ve got good news for you, and I’ve got bad news for you. I’d ask you which you want first, but since I can’t really do that right now, I’ll just go ahead and give you the good news first: It took an entire month for MTV to hop on the Occupy Wall Street bandwagon and start trying to exploit it! Hoorah! And the bad news? You guessed it: MTV has hopped on the Occupy Wall Street bandwagon and has started trying to exploit it. Sigh. More »
I don’t watch Real Housewives. I don’t watch any of them. But you know what I WOULD watch? The Real Housewives of South Boston. Because this video right here is HILARIOUS. More »
After the most cringe-worthy season of Real Housewives of New Jersey yet, we have reached the reunion. The problem here is that when the reunion was filmed a few weeks ago, the ladies were in the midst of shooting season four. The reunion was shot shortly after the fiasco at the Posche fashion show, where, reportedly, Bravo and Teresa arranged for Melissa’s old boss to show up at the fashion show. Trouble is, he was her boss when she worked at a strip club, Lookers Gentleman’s Club (snort) as a bartender, not a dancer. More »
You wanna mess with Mama Manzo? Big mistake. Huge. More »
Well, well, well. There was certainly something missing to this episode. I’m talking about the Dominican Republic brawl, which I aptly coined the “Prostitution Puta!” fight. I guess Bravo couldn’t legally show the fight, which involved Albie and Chris Manzo, as well as their roommate, Greg Bennett, getting detained for a few days in the DR (and, we now know, right before their big BLK water launch party!). Smooth.
A few things dawned on us in this episode; mainly, when Richie says that Teresa must have been droppped on her head one too many times as a baby. So that explains the forehead! Check out my favorite scenes from the Dominican Republic and Melissa‘s singing debut! More »
The franchise digs its own hole ever deeper. More »
Here we have it. Part I of the much-anticipated Dominican Republic trip. Naturally, after the angry, threatening texts between Joe Giudice and Joe Gorga, the families thought it best that they all go on vacation together. Surprisingly, things do not go so well. More »
On this episode, we saw all the Housewives get their fitness on and learned that sausage and wine makes as good a post-workout snack as anything. The Gorgas visited the Manzo boys in their new apartment and got a taste of Hoboken life, which ended with Joe on Greg‘s shoulders. We saw Milania get ready for her birthday party, throwing the obligatory temper tantrum. As usual, the Giudice/Gorga conflict took center stage, revealing itself in a heartbreaking way through Gia’s song. Check out my favorite scenes from this week’s episode. More »
This eight minute commercial is a regular roller coaster ride of emotions. Emotions and song! More »
Talk about a jam-packed episode! From the Manzo boys starting their business of selling black water, to Rich’s wild birthday party, to Joe Giudice drunkenly flying through the air, the Real Housewives of New Jersey do not disappoint. Check out my favorite scenes from this week’s episode. More »
Back in Jersey, Ashley is still fighting with her parents. Things come to a blow back at the Laurita home, where Ashley proclaims her plans to move to California. But we’ll talk about that later. Meanwhile, Kathy throws a “Goddess” party to showcase her delicious Middle Eastern food, and Teresa is, shockingly, late. Check out my favorite scenes from this week’s episode. More »
Have you guys been watching Russian Dolls? It’s a new reality show that debuted recently on Lifetime about (you guessed it) the lives of eight Russian women living at Brighton Beach. Needless to say, yes, it does bear some similarities to several OTHER popular reality shows which shall go unnamed, and yes, it’s just as appalling as those aforementioned shows. Ready for this? Grab a bottle. Doesn’t have to be vodka. Stick a straw in it. Here we go. More »
Gallery: The Ten Most Obnoxious Things Patti Stanger Has Said
Millionaire Matchmaker star Patti Stanger got in hot water yesterday for saying some incredibly offensive and bigoted things about Jews, gays, and lesbians. To which I say: is anyone surprised? This masterpiece of internalized misogyny, anti-Semitism, and sexism has been saying offensive things for as long as she’s been on the air. In fact, it’s kind of her schtick. Here are ten of them.
