Kenya Moore has been fired. Miss Moore is done with the twirl and has left the building. We break down how this happened, dive deep beneath the rumored “investigation” Production and Bravo conducted and discuss the finding that Kenya has violated the code of conduct leading to her termination. We discuss the likelihood Kenya will ever be back on Bravo, Peacock, E! or any other NBC affiliates. We chat about the double standard world in which Jennifer Aydin has a job after committing assault - the definition of putting your hands on another - and Kenya does not.  We break down the claim that Kenya is going to file a lawsuit and the claims that lawsuit is likely to include. We discuss the upcoming season of RHOA, what Production plans to do with Kenya’s already filmed scenes and if we, the viewer, are likely to ever see this play out on TV. Finally, we discuss Kenya’s support from Kandi, Brandi Glanville and you, the fans, many of whom have been picketing outside NBC at 30 Rock to “Free Kenya Moore”. @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef Learn more about your ad choices.

One of The Real Housewives Of New Jersey's Executive Producers from the early days, Dorothy Toran, steps Behind The Rope. Dorothy was there when Teresa got out of jail. Dorothy was there when Juicy was deported.  The more things change, the more they stay the same. , We talk Teresa, Melissa, Jacqueline, Caroline Manzo and much more.   You know how there were rumors that Margaret was close to certain Producers, allegedly, well…. So much of this chat foreshadows where we are today with a mess of a season, the toxicity worse than ever and an RHONJ Season 14 cast that is about to be disassembled in a few short weeks. On that note, we figured today the perfect day to share this blast from the past chat with the one and only Dorothy Toran @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope  BROUGHT TO YOU BY: GREENLIGHT - greenlight.com/velvetrope (Sign Up For Greenlight Today and Get Your First Month Free Of the Debit Card and Money App Made For Families) LOLAVIE - lolavie.com/VELVET (Use Code Velvet For 15% Off Jennifer Aniston’s Award Winning Hair Care) HONEYLOVE - honeylove.com/velvet (20% Off On The Best Shapewear & Bras On The Market) FIJI WATER - www.fijiwater.com (Pick Up The #1 Premium Imported Bottled Water Brand In The US At a Store Near You or Order Online) INDEED - indeed.com/velvet (Seventy Five Dollar $75 Sponsored Job Credit To Get Your Jobs More Visibility)  TROPICAL SMOOTHIE CAFE (Visit One of Tropical Smoothie Cafe’s 1400+ Locations or Order Online or Through Their App Their Summer Mocktail Smoothies) ADVERTISING INQUIRIES - Please contact [email protected] MERCH Available at - https://www.teepublic.com/stores/behind-the-velvet-rope?ref_id=13198 Learn more about your ad choices.

RHONJ Season 14, Episode 8. The physical altercation between Danielle Cabral and Jennifer Aydin has finally arrived. We break down the hair drama and other facts that led up to the altercation, break down a play by play and discuss who we think is to blame for this mess of a Troubled Tulum party.  We discuss Tre’s claims that she is using Jackie to take down Marge, Rachel Fuda’s claims that Jackie is the laughing stock of Bravo, Dolores’ savage breakup with Jackie and Margaret enjoying it all just a little too much. We discuss the seemingly double standard as Jen and Danielle returned to work after suspension but Kenya Moore is not allowed to return to RHOA.  Finally, we discuss an RHONJ without Melissa and Joe, Melissa’s claims of wanting to make up with Kathy Wakile, real life fall outs with Jennifer Aydin and Margaret Josephs and much much more as we are joined by the one and only Andrea Lopez as Teresa Giudice! @andrealopezcomedy @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef Listen Now: https://www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope Learn more about your ad choices.
