Real Housewives of Miami - The Reunion From Hell

Bravo's latest reality TV spin-off of middle-aged women, "Real Housewives of Miami" has officially come to the end of it's first (and probably last) season. Who knows, we might have to ask "Mama' Elsa" what the future really holds for the "ladies" of Miami - I mean she did steal the show after all.

Bravo TV viewers were able to cut last night's "Watch What Happen's Live" tension with a knife, as most of the season's drama seemed to revolve around Cristy Rice "Fernandez" (as Brazilian bombshell, Adriana, obviously seems to refer to her as) and Larsa Pippen.

It seems that Cristy ate the most out of this season's drama pie - after crashing Lea's charity gala and being confronted face-to-face by Lea's co-signer, Adriana (about paying for her ticket only after being invoiced), being accused by Marysol's mother, Elsa, for being a good-for-nothing cheater - while Alexia also put Cristy in place for dishing some "Hialeah gossip" about her and her husband in her blog.

Cristy's "gold-diggin' and home-wreckin'" persona seemed to intensify as recent pictures of her new mysterious boy-toy went viral online before the show even premiered on Bravo. She's known for her infamous divorce with Glen Rice, and her affair with Luis Fonsi - so who the heck is this new guy? During the reunion from hell, Adriana also accused Cristy of "giving blow jobs to 19 year olds" - could she be referring to when Cristy was a special needs teacher and allegedly performed [oral] sex on her step-son, Glen Rice Jr.?

Misery needs company indeed - and that's why Larsa and Cristy make the ultimate perfect match. They're both involved (or have been involved) one way or another with NBA super-stars, and seem to strike chords with the rest of the RHOM cast.

Larsa Pippen and Marysol's mother, Elsa, have gone through quite the "santaria" (spanish witch-craft) feud during the show - and Marysol didn't hold back her feelings, especially after Larsa called her mom a "bitch" during the season's finale. Although Larsa didn't like Elsa's interpretation of her "energy's vibes", we can safely admit that Elsa was correct about her own daughter Marysol marrying French hunk, Philippe Herda. Maybe after Larsa sees how superficial and self absorbing she comes across to viewers on TV, she'll probably finally learn to become "emotionally mature".

Lea Black seems to just watch most of the drama unfold in-front of her and kicks back with a giant bag of pop-corn. Although her sense of style and humor are quite amusing on their own - everyone is dying to know if she's had any plastic surgery or new botox done prior to last night's reunion, because all of the sudden she's looking amazingly younger... It must be great being the "mayor" of Miami!

I have to admit that Adriana kept it very sexy-real this season - from her "runway" tactics, to her priceless Brazilian accent, and steaming-hot vacation getaway with Frederick at the Canyon Ranch, she proves that stirring the pot can't ever look as appealing. It seems Adriana really held her ground against Cristy during the reunion - great for her!

Of course I had to save the best for last - Alexia Echevarria. She is known as the "Cuban barbie" and comes across as the humbling mother and perfect wife - despite the rumors of her ex-husband, Pedro Rosello, being a big time cocaine dealer, and her involvement with ex-convict, Willy Falcon.

Alexia is amongst my favorites this season, she seems more family oriented than some of the other "fame whores" on the show, and she also keeps away from most of the drama - while still being blunt about many situations all at the same time. Being a "real housewife" means taking care of your children and family's well being, and having fun at the end of it all. Despite the rumors online about her previous marriages, Alexia manages to come across as one of the more influential modern mothers of todays times.
