#tabatha and Lawrence

[vanna-rps]

(u pick the ships for each of these) "Are you even listening to me?" // "Are you sure this is legal?” // "How drunk are you right now?" // "I am not wearing that.” // "I love you, but I really wish I didn’t.” // "Is that my shirt?" // "Unbelievable. I can't believe you right now."

“Are you even listening to me?”

Violet and PhillipThe words made the man smirk as he pressed his lips to the back of her neck and held her closer to him. “No, you lost me at the color pink.” Phillip whispered huskily against her ear before nibbling on her ear lobe and then making his way down her soft skin. “Come on, Violet. It’ll be there in the morning.” He whispered while his fingers gently massaged her skin and he smiled as he felt her body relax against his. He knew all of her spots that made her melt. “Let me love you tonight.”

“Are you sure this is legal?”

Scarlett and Mitchell

Scarlett couldn’t stop the smirk from playing on her lips as she looked back at the blue eyed man. “No. Does it matter right now? No, it doesn’t. Do you want to get the other teams plays or not, Mitch?” She asked as she went back to picking the lock. It definitely wasn’t legal or right to steal another basketball teams plays but she didn’t care. Her niece’s team would win the game next week whether they cheated or not. And Scarlett was not about to admit that it was also to get back at one of the moms of the other team. The woman shouldn’t have flirted with Mitchell in front of her for God’s sake. “Besides, it’ll be fun seeing the look on Lucille’s face when Marley beats her daughter’s ass.”

“How drunk are you right now?”

Kurt didn’t stop the bitter laugh that left his lips as he held his glass tighter in his hand. He rarely drink and when he did, he binged it all. Katherine always got onto him for it. He looked up at her and almost snarled but there was a look of heart break in his eyes. “Drunk enough to tell you I love you, Katherine.”

“I am not wearing that.”

Lawrence x Tabatha

“Please, Lawrence! I promise you I won’t take pictures!” Tabatha grinned as she tried not to giggle. The chef looked absolutely appalled at the thought of even wearing the costume that was the Cat in the Hat. “It’s the perfect costume for you and besides, you’ll look sexy in just the bow tie later on tonight, don’t you think?”

“I love you but I really wish I didn’t.”

Jon x Mira

He felt his heart clench and his world crumble around him at her words. He knew it was true. He knew it was because he felt the same way but he couldn’t stop his feelings for the woman. “I’m sorry, Mira.” He whispered, stressing it as his heartbroken blue eyes looked at the young woman he had fallen in love with. “I can’t stop my feelings for you but I know that if I stay. If we keep dong this, I’m going to hurt you more than I already have.” Jon took a shaky breath as he ran a hand through his hair and stared at her. “I wish you didn’t love me either.”

“Is that my shirt?”Marion x Bryan

“It is. I hope you don’t mind but it was the first thing I grabbed this morning.” Marion smiled shyly as she played with the ends of the shirt. It was big on her but she didn’t mind it. It was comfy and it smelled like him. It comforted her more than he would ever know but that didn’t stop him from giving her a look that made her sigh. “Can I keep it?”

“Unbelievable. I can’t believe you right now.”

Laura x Justin

“Well, neither can I. So that makes two of us.” Laura beamed proudly as she stood in the doorway of their newly decorated bedroom. He had been on tour for three months and had come home for a couple of weeks. While he had been gone, she and Cindy had expertly redesigned their entire bedroom and bathroom. They would do the rest of the home while he was gone again. “Just think of it this way. Now, you can fuck me on our new bed and on our new floor and in our new bathroom.”

‘Intimate Conversation with Andy Cohen’ Seminole Casino Coconut Creek Friday, May 12

 To many people Andy Cohen is best known as the referee/mediator of the various Bravo Television “Housewives” reunion shows.  What you don’t know is his other accomplishments are as colorful as the man himself. Cohen who hails from St Louis began his tenure at Bravo in 2004 as Vice President, Original Programming developing an amazing array of ‘unscripted reality based’ series and specials. These included hits such as Project Runway, Top Chef, Queer Eye for the Straight Guy, Flipping Out, Tabatha’s Salon Takeover, The Millionaire Matchmaker, the Million Dollar Listing franchise, Kathy Griffin My Life On The D-List, Being Bobby Brown, Shahs of Sunset, Top Design, The Rachel Zoe Project, Bethenny Ever After, and The Real Housewives franchise.  All massive hits with devoted watchers and followers including celebrities such as Jerry O’Connell, Chrissy Teigen, Jennifer Lawrence and Jonah Hill. For the average Joe this may be enough, but not for Cohen. His mark on the television genre keeps growing. As a serious journalist in 2005, Cohen was awarded the Peabody Award for Executive Producer of the TRIO documentary The N Word. For ten years he worked as a producer at CBS News (1990-2000), working on 48 Hours and CBS This Morning.

His Emmy Award-winning talk show Watch What Happens Live on Bravo is one of the top rated and most watched shows on cable. This series is the only live show in late night television and boasts some of the most beloved and influential guests in pop culture. His guests have included Cher, Oprah Winfrey, Lady Gaga, Meryl Streep, Carol Burnett, Jennifer Lopez, Jennifer Lawrence, Mariah Carey, Amy Schumer, Rod Stewart and Cyndi Lauper. Many of his interviews make the news and have great insight in the world of Entertainment and its elite. He is a New York Times best-selling author (The Andy Cohen Diaries: A Deep Look at a Shallow Year and Most Talkative: Stories from the Frontlines of Pop Culture. His most recent book, Superficial: More Adventures from the Andy Cohen Diaries, was published in November 2016). He has his own channel Radio Andy on Sirius Satellite Radio. This summer he will host a reboot of the game show Love Connection on FOX.

This evening at the Coconut Creek Casino it was Cohen’s turn to be on the other side of the questions and in the spotlight with an ‘Intimate Conversation with Andy Cohen’.  Roxanne Vargas from local South Florida station NBC 6 was the moderator for this special event. The set for the hour long session was not your typical question-and-answer format.  Of course that was the grip of the show but an added spice of color commentary was added to make the evening a notch above the rest.  The stage was designed to look like Andy’s clubhouse from his Watch What Happens live show, perhaps to make Cohen feel more at home.   Behind our guest and Roxanne was a screen that projected pictures which aided in moving the evening along as well as fueling the segments questions.  Cohen’s as always seemed at ease and right at home as he answered questions, told stories, and looked back on his life and career.  It wasn’t just a night of remembrances.  There was a look into the future of his career and personal goals as well as the state of the television medium as a whole.  This included his insight and comments on the power of social media outlets and their influence in our world today, and being an openly gay man in society.

The questions from the audience seemed a bit scripted considering they were read off cards. Nevertheless, it was a fun outing as some hardcore Housewives fans shouted out from time to time in an attempt to get the dish from Cohen.  Always the diplomatic gentlemen he did his best when asked about the recent comings-and-goings of certain Bravolebrities. The show was followed by a book signing and photo opportunity. Of course, I was right up there being the fan I am.  Cohen is just a cool guy, plain and simple.  He was accommodating, funny, and appreciative of the 1200 sold-out audience in attendance. You may not get all your questions answered by Andy Cohen but it was certainly a fun way to spend a Friday night.
