Tequila Talk Tuesday

Well I've finally finished Andy Cohen's book Most Talkative and it gets two snaps up in a circle from me.  Not only was it in depth about some of the Housewife of (insert your favorite franchise here) drama but gave lots of behind the scenes on the man himself!  From a little boy being raised in St. Louis we learn about his journey in journalism.  I really had no idea he had such an extensive journalism background.  Like that he really knows Mike Wallace or wait is that Dan Rather?  Whatever that's pretty major!  One of the funniest things is his infatuation with Susan Lucci - really no surprise but I'll have to say Andy it's a bit unhealthy honey.  She's like OLD and yeah just move on! 

Anywhoo if you're looking for an end of the summer beach read this is the one.  Price is great when you download it your iPad or favorite e-Reader or hold up....Barnes and Noble has it for $1.99 in hardcover.  Ouchhhh (said in my Andy Cohen voice).   

If you've read it let me know what you thought?  Was I the only one that took 3 months to read it?  I want to know.  Drop me a line below. 

Mazel,

Dirty Martini | Week in Review

Celeb 411

Mr. & Mrs. Carter are expecting baby number #2!  Yes, you read that right, power couple Jay-Z and Beyonce will be giving Blu Ivy a little brother or sister soon.  The rumors start flying that Lady B was with child when earlier this month she walked the red carpet at the Met Gala wearing a custom-made Givenchy gown that strategically concealed her stomach making it difficult to tell if she was sporting a mini baby bump. Now that the rumors are laid to rest and it's been confirmed that she is indeed pregnant, I'm sure the next things people will speculate is whether it's another girl or a little J.  Either way we just want to wish Lady B and Jay all the best on their growing family.

Reality Recap
Summer is upon us and what that really means is a lot of reality TV (yipee!!!!).  Two of the shows that these
Divas will be watching are Bravo's Real Housewives of New Jersey which is scheduled to air on June 2nd at 8/7c.  Your favorite New Jersey girls are back right were they left off last season, at odds with each other.  However this season they are on a mission for redemption in an effort to pick up the pieces of their broken relationships.  We will also see the ladies shifting through the rubble after being hard hit bu Hurricane Sandy.






Also on Bravo Chef Roble & Co will be returning as well.  The season 2  premiere is scheduled to air on June 5th at 10/9c. Now that Roble has established his catering company, season 2 will follow his business as it continues to grow.  This season proves to be celebrity packed as we see the cutie pie chef work with such A-listers as John Legend, NBA start Tyson Chandler and our home girl Phaedra Parks from The Real Housewives of Atlanta.
