Personally, I think Kenya has never looked better, but what I think is not correlated with how Kenya feels about her body, so I support Kenya and all the women on their fitness journey. However, that changes this episode, and we got a fit fam Black girl magic bootcamp with Kandi, Cynthia, and Kenya, who describes herself as having fallen into a “vat of fat” having gained 30 pounds. So far, we’ve only gotten a little Kandi this season, as she hasn’t really had many scenes with the other women. Next up, we’ve got Kandi: A little Kandi always helps sweeten the tea. Kenya and Latoya are the Unfriendly Black Hotties from Mean Girls and no you CAN’T sit with them. Yes, they are absolutely being mean, but also they are absolutely living for each other. Rather than back down or try to retract the rude statement, Latoya doubles down and further eviscerates Drew’s wig calling it “Dreweesha” to Kenya’s complete and utter delight. Anyway, after trading compliments about how hot they look (“You are giving me executive sexy hot mama teas in here”), Kenya tells Latoya that she told Cynthia about Latoya’s “pet” comment re: Drew’s wig. They genuinely seem to enjoy each other’s company and even Kenya said they have “chemistry.” Also, LaKenya (the couple name I created for them) already enjoy wearing matching outfits, which is huge queer couple energy. Latoya brings out a fun, devilish, girlish side of Kenya that we haven’t seen in a minute. Maybe Kenya … should just date Latoya? I’m being 100 percent serious. Also receiving a 10/10 for me: the budding friendship between Latoya and Kenya. STEP out of Kenya’s shadow if you don’t like it there. Yes, that’s how a housewives tagline should be done, folks. Now it’s Kenya’s turn, and as per usual her tagline does not disappoint: If you don’t like my shade than step out of my shadow. What tis very clear to me is that Ralph, Pastor Jeanette, and Drew need to make their way to the Red Table because there’s some healing that needs to happen here. Please, tell it like it tis, Pastor Jeanette. “You know I tell it like it T-I-S is, so you know that I’m embedded in my sermon,” says Pastor Jeanette. Personally, I feel that we’ve hit the height of mother-in-law drama with Todd and Mama Joyce, and I don’t think there’s much more room for us to discover something new here, but maybe I’m wrong. Pastor Jeanette is pissed that Ralph ran away for three days and made her daughter cry, and she wants him to know that. Bridal Your Tongue? Bridle Your Tongs? Rydell (High) Your Thongs? In any case, I knew it was rude AF to Ralph and that’s all that matters in the end. Drew is making pancakes with her adorable kids! Drew is rocking a sweatshirt that says “Christian with a Dior” which may be sacrilegious but is very cute! Drew is a Cool Mom who loves her Cute Kids and The Lord and her Shady Husband, even though they are not in a good place right now!Īnd you know what always helps a major marital issue? Rehearsing for a church service run by your mother-in-law, that’s what! Maybe I’m dumb and/or hard of hearing, but I didn’t understand what Pastor Jeanette’s sermon was called. But Drew doesn’t care that her tagline is a lie. Your husband who takes surveillance footage of you and disappears to Tampa - the undisputed stripper capital of the contiguous United States - seems to be calling, if not all, then at least the vast majority of the plays. Okay, cute, but this is categorically false. Drew’s tagline: I was in “The Game,” but now I’m calling all the plays.
Next, we’ve got new housewife Drew and her runaway groom, Ralph.
In the serious confessional with the all-black background, Porsha says that the cops “wanted to prove a point” by making her one of the last people to leave the jail, which is so petty and shitty and exactly what I believe the cops would do in that situation. While in Kentucky, Porsha gets arrested again ( badass), this time for disorderly conduct/obstructing a highway, and she says that this time was more difficult than the first time. Porsha stays true to her tagline from the very top of the episode, retuning to Louisville to continue protesting for Breonna Taylor. Relevant, punny, and respectful of both the public health crisis and the Black Lives Matter movement? That’s going to get an 8/10 from me. Let’s rate our ladies opening taglines, shall we? We’ll start with our center peach holder, Miss Porsha Luther King: I may be social distancing, but I’m here for social justice.
