Tamra's blatant hypocrisy

I'm not a fan of Kelly at all but where does Tamra and the rest of the cast for that matter get off calling Kelly crazy or saying she doesn't have limits? Lets go down the list of things that Tamra did and never apologized for at all.
1. Naked Wasted. She tries to get her son to sexually assault Gretchen in the bathroom when she's drunk.
2. She called Lizzie a bad mom but she can't be called a bad mom?
3. She shoved Jeanna and threw wine in her eye.
4. She repeatedly bad mouths Simon on camera which I'm sure her daughter doesn't want to hear.
5. She gaslights Shannon all the time and practically salivate when Vicki revealed that she knew one of Shannon's secrets.
6. She researched Slade and called his ex on the reunion.
7. Her treatment of Alexis including pulling her chair out from underneath her and repeatedly calling her cruel names with Jesus in the title and then she tries to steal her persona on the show by quoting Bible verses and claiming to be born again.

These are several examples where she displayed awful behavior and the cast never calls her out on anything. She's not justified in pushing Kelly because she said something that upset her. This is her second altercation why hasn't she been fired or demoted? It really annoys me to see the other women completely ignore Tamra's behavior and then call Kelly trashy. If you can be friends with Tamra then you can be friends with anyone.

Tamra has NO room to throw stones at anyone.

Wow, she actually pushed her? I haven't seen the episode yet.

Yeah that's why I was stunned when she kept calling Shannon crazy couple seasons ago.

(NOT that this excuses Kelly but Tamra is no one to throw stones.)

Can someone explain number 1??? I don't remember anything close to that happening.

The plan was for Tamra and her son Ryan to get Gretchen "black-out drunk" and then have Ryan take Gretchen to one of the rooms and have sex {aka: rape} with her. You can see Ryan lurking in the background waiting while Tamra keeps encouraging Gretchen to keep drinking and try other cocktails. It was very disturbing to see a mother and son plan and happily execute this stunt. Luckily, Gretchen was taken home by someone else. I do not remember the entire episode, but I hope the scene explains.

Omg...that was soooooooooo disgusting. Her AND Vicki were in cahoots with that.

[–] Karma-For-You 8 years ago

I remember that, it was disgusting. I still think Ryan has a thing for his mother. They are both disturbing to watch when they interact with each other and Ryan looks like a serial killer. He's beyond creepy.

She called Lizzie a bad mom but she can't be called a bad mom?

Exactly, 100%

Plus the fact that she is a bad mom, and chose to continue to be on a reality show where she says bad things about her ex husband, the father of her daughter, over having a relationship with her daughter. Her daughter has a right to feel hurt. If her daughter is a teen, a mature woman does whatever she can to make things right with the kid. Tamra's personal life of dating and marrying and acting like a fool and fame comes first though, so I have no sympathy for her. Sorry! She is living the life she wants, and obviously doesn't care to make any changes in order to save her relationship with her daughter. I pity the daughter, as it must suck to have such an immature, selfish mom.

I agree that Tamra has done all those things and more. She has actually cleaned up her a little, that's how bad she was before. Not defending her.

But....I do think Kelly is (I don't want to say crazy) a person with some serious issues. Her outbursts, the name-calling, the nasty temper, etc, make her extremely unpleasant to watch. I don't think she belongs on the show, there's enough lunacy already. With Vicki, Tamra and Shannon all short tempered and over sensituve, Kelly is like pouring gasoline on a fire.

[–] DonutLover 8 years ago

Yes, that's what makes the all deserve each other. Shannon has acted like a mad woman, and she's still there. Tamra is just trash, and she's still there. Vicky has been the worst of all. Lying about cancer. Just disgusting. She's still there and always will be. So what little newbie Kelly has done is nothing, nothing compared to the others ;)

Only Meghan gets a pass this season.

Tamra deserves to be with Girth Brooks while Eddie should be with Jim Edmonds. How's that for drama?

[–] Karma-For-You 8 years ago

^^^^^Oh my. Hahahahahaha.

[–] DonutLover 8 years ago

Tamra deserves to be with Girth Brooks while Eddie should be with Jim Edmonds. How's that for drama?

Ha ha, that is funny! I used to believe that Eddie was totally gay, as well as Jim Edmonds. But either I am believing the lie now, or they are acting more into their spouses.

THANK YOU OP. Could not have said this better myself.

[–] kindheart02 8 years ago

Tamra is trashier than Ramona and that's saying alot.

What gives her the right to lay her hands on people?

She behaves in over-the-top x-rated displays on TV!! Not just the confines of a small private get-together. How embarrassing for all her family.

She has no filter, everything she thinks, she blurts out.

She has no respect for trust between friends, and keeping things confidential.

Always in the middle of every fray.

As beautiful as she is, she has no class.

Her reckless behaviors are so frequent this yr one even caused an accident.

She's making the sign of the cross with the right hand and stabbing people in the back with the left.

Her mishandling of Ryan has helped him to be the mess he has become, today, even criminal behaviors now.

There is a weird inappropriate attraction Ryan has to her, she doesn't know boundaries.

She and Vicki both are under the impression people should behave how they want them to.

[–] DonutLover 8 years ago

Yes! She is emotionally stunted at the age of 13, in my view. Had no business having children.

The fact is, Kelly does seem unstable emotionally, socially, and could have a problem with alcohol.
Tamra and Vicki certainly have issues of their own. They have both behaved terribly, but it doesn't excuse or negate the way Kelly has behaved and the things she has said and done.
