Drinking Game Alert: BOBB
Andy just flew in from Indonesia. It was a 21 hour flight. He's so great that he came straight from that to bring this this episode Live! (Kenya ads that it wasn't that bad because Andy flew on a private jet)
Andy is repeating his tradition of sober January! Does that include pot?
Sherri Shepherd tweeted this in....
Kenya said Celebrity Apprentice was shot almost a year ago and none of the Bill Cosby allegations were out then.
Geraldo Rivera said "Imagine being married to Kenya Moore, you'd be sleeping with your eyes open."
Kenya's response...."You had like five wives so…" #SoShady
Andy Did stop by to help out Kenya & Brandi on Celebrity Apprentice & only donated $1,000. He's glad that didn't air on the episode tonight. He wished he gave more now.
Everybody was talking about NeNe's interview hair bob.
Andy asked what Kenya's real opinion is about it?
Kenya said "it's not good."
Poll Question:
Here's What:
1) Andy relives last weeks #RHOA Kenya & Porsha make up scene.
Jewel was very proud of Kenya. They are definitely moving in the right direction.
2) Andy shows us a sneak peek of next weeks #RHOA episode, & boy it looks to be Drama filled!
3) Andy plays a little game with Ben called "What would Ben do?"
#WWBD
Andy gets Ben to give his gospel advice to the #RHOA Ladies with their current situations on the show.
AC: What advice would you give Todd for Mama Joyce?
BT: He should be the son that she never had, take her out to dinner and clean her house for her.
AC: Should Phaedra bring the kids to visit Apollo in prison?
BT: It's a hurtful thing when an ex tells you you can't see your kids. She's got to take him to see their dad.
AC: What would you do if your spouse didn't want your former best friend back in your life hence the NeNe and Peter situation?
BT: The man is the head, but the wife is the neck, and the neck turns the head.
Andy thinks Ben needs to come out with a self-help book, since he gives such great advice. (Ben's working on it.)
Kenya says she's very supportive of all her cast mates.
Desmond from California called to ask Kenya to unblock him from Twitter.
Kenya says she'll unblock him if he can name the sales on iTunes go her gone with the fabulous single.
Andy stops this from dragging on and asks what Desmond's question is.
Desmond wants to know what's going on with the insemination process that Kenya had planned for June 2, his birthday and Andy's birthday?
Kenya said she's working on it and it's a process. It's something that all woman over 40 go through.
GIF of the Night:
My good twitter pal @LoveAndyC(Give her a follow) tweeted in this question that Andy asked Live on air.......
Kenya replied She does, they have their ups and downs but she definitely believes they are a couple.
Michael from Florida called to ask Ben why he didn't seek a relationship earlier with his children & why does his wife seem more interested in him having a solid relationship with his biological children?
Ben said, "Divorce, living in a different city and being on tour 200 nights of the year for 20 years kept me separated from the kids. Even when I was home or I visited them I was asleep. It wasn't intentional. I made the decision to ask them to come move in with me.
Josh from Dayton Ohio asked Kenya what she thought about Naomi Campbell telling Andy to keep Porsha and get rid of Kenya in Andy's Book, The Andy Cohen Diaries?
Kenya throw some shade back and says, that is why Naomi is not the head of a major network.
Kenya still loves Naomi, she is amazing and an icon. You have to respect her for that.
Theresa called from Florida to ask Jewel if she thinks her younger sister is jealous of her sister & all their financial success?
Jewel thinks everyone is in a process. It at times it can make it awkward between them. She loves her sisters. It's just a process that they are all going through.
A viewer sent in a question for Kenya asking what she did on Celebrity Apprentice with Vivica Fox's phone?
Kenya wouldn't reveal what happened but invited viewers to tune in & find out.
Game Time!
Watch Out For The Roger BobbCats!😼
A bunch of Roger Bobb bastard kittens are about to attack Kenya, Jewel & Ben! In order to save themselves they must correctly identify 7 famous Bob's Andy gives them clues about in 60 seconds or suffer Death by the Roger Bobb Bastard Kittens. (They got 6 out of 7 & still lost. Don't worry it was just pretend, they didn't actually get eaten alive.)😻
For playing along they all win Tankard Spankers, NOT available on ShopByBravo.com but they should be.
Sadly no Wacha in the Clubhouse. Andy just flew back & is picking him up from Brooklyn Monday morning. Hopefully he'll be on Monday night.
Marlo Hampton tweeted in this remark.....
Kenya thanks her fabulous hairstylist Derek Monroe.
Andy asked Kenya what the real beef between her and Brandi Glanville is?
Kenya says she really doesn't have a beef with her she just doesn't care for her. Kenya then reminds Andy that he bore witness first hand to the high & drunk antics of Brandi Glanville during Bravo Upfronts.
Kenya ~ "She came drunk and high and ready to pick a fight with me, NeNe & Cynthia." Andy does admit Brandi tried to pick a fight with the wrong three girls.

AfterShow:
Jaquala from Dallas Texas called to ask if Kenya sees a friendship between her and Porsha in the near future?
Kenya always says never say never. She just looks towards the future. Things that happened in the past she leaves in the past.
Andy gives fans a little tease & says, "The ladies go on this trip and some very interesting connections with the ladies are made."
Jewel is happy to see the ladies getting along / communicating during the last few episodes. Kenya reminds Jewel that in tonight's episode of #RHOA neNe took a few steps back from that. 😁
Lance from Virginia called to ask the Tankards what made them decide to bring their oldest son onto the show?
Ben said that Marcus has been all missionary a missionary for years. When his mission was over he spent the summer with them and they convinced him to continue to stay. There's some surprises coming up on #ThickerThanWater so stay tuned.
Angela from Georgia called to ask Kenya who she would rather be trapped on a desert island with, Porsha or NeNe?
Kenya says NeNe because NeNe knows that a boat will get them out versus an underground railroad that doesn't exist.😂
Ashley from Pennsylvania called to ask Jewel if her and her sisters are back to all getting along?
They definitely love each other, there's no question about that. They get on each other's nerves but they still love each other. It's a process with family, you have to fight for your family. Nothing will ever change their love for each other.
Jill from Phoenix Arizona called to ask Kenya why says she wants to make an attempt to be friends with NeNe but continue to make criticizing comments about her?
Kenya says those comments are made during interviews after the scenes have been filmed & it's not evil shade she's throwing it's funny shade.
Andy does say Kenya is good at receiving shade.
Andy asked Ben what he is most excited for about airing with his show Thicker Than Water this season?
Ben is most excited for his kids moving on in their relationships with each other. As a dad it makes him very happy.
Andy says the have one dramatic family.
Ben was glad that the yours got to see that he is a 25 year music veteran with 15 gold and 16 platinum albums & that he wasn't living off his church. That was a big misconception last season. They give to the church, they don't take a salary. His money came from big hit records.
Ben has a new record out now called, Full Tank 2.0
A caller from Alabama asked Kenya how to obtain free samples of her hair care products.
Kenya kindly offered to send the caller personally some of what she uses. (That was very kind)
@KenyaMoore tweeted this Question in.....
😂 Andy corrects Kenya and reminds her it was only three, but since #RHOA was on twice tonight that should count for the fourth?
And with that Andy bids us a good night.
