But your money here.

I personally don't think I can take Housewives drama on AI.

I wouldn't tune in for this Battle of the Divas if I was paid to. Poor Keith Urban is stuck in the middle.

At first I thought news of this was a publicity stunt, but it is doing the show and these women no good whatsoever.

If ever they needed what was in Paula's cup, now is the time!

They haven't changed the mix: some people just have adverse reactions to it. Admittedly, most of those are filed under 'death', but...

I think there's a chance this is staged to drive up preseason interest in the new panel. Tune it to see the fights! Check out the clawing! Just don't look for modern songs performed by talented singers, because we haven't done that in years! They'll hate each other as long the checks keep coming, and no longer.

Of course, we do have a double diva clash here. And those just never end well.

...just read and/or watch it. It's not as if you might not believe me if I told you, but I have no intention of recapping this mess -- real or not.

She claims Mariah has been using every contestant's audition as an excuse to talk about her own career, and that another long hike down History Of Diva Road had taken place just before the video kicked in. And then she kept going with her Twitter rants. And then she started tweeting about The Glory Of Pepsi, which may have been a mistake.

The Worsters are batting around the theory that Nigel hired her to be a headline generator for a few episodes and then 'quit', leaving a panel of three. (Career sabotage? Not in the rap community.) The Hollywood Reporter has a claimed show insider saying the whole thing was faked for the drama, the cameras, the ratings, the headlines, and especially the buzz. Can't have two queens in a hive...

I'm not watching X-Factor because I don't care about manufactured conflict. Idol is about five seconds from being wiped off the schedule.

Then again, it seems as if no one's watching X-Factor, period.
