Yes, that is the question. These women are not housewives or really even domestic goddesses. A few of them are businesswomen, but I guess friends of the impostors. All have fake boobs. Probably all have been botoxed and have smooth foreheads and big waxy lips and long hair. They have showed a few of the gals getting needles in the frown area. I think this Bravo cable show should be called ‘Stepford Wives of Orange County’ as they are trying to be cookie cutter replicas of each other. The only one I can relate to in the tiniest of ways is Jeana, because she is the heaviest of the bunch, not in a bad heavy way. She and her ex-pro baseball player husband have 3 kids (she thought their gene pool was so excellent that they reproduced that many times-words from her own mouth). They have about 3-4 homes. Her kids are totally spoiled.
In fact, most of the teenagers/young adults they show have some kind of issue. Last night the other ‘newer’ cast member’s daughter had her nose fixed as she had a little bump in it. They actually showed the doctor whamming her nose with a hammer and you heard the ‘crack’ when it broke.The one I can’t stand the most is Jo who is about 26. She isn’t anything special, not even that pretty. She happen to catch this rich guy Slade (real name? I think not) and he fell for her. Now she got a job in LA and is moving there. I think Slade is tired of her anyway. I guess their lives are like 98% more interesting then mine, but you see from the show that they all have problems. Money seems to escalate this most of the times. All have been married and divorced too.

I hadn’t even considered the repercussions I’d have on the gene pool by reproducing three times. I better send the human race an apology card! LOL
I don’t think their lives are 98% more interesting than yours, or anyone else’s. I think their lives are 98% sadder, though. How awful it must really be to have all the money you could ever need, a beautiful home (or homes), and yet still be unhappy, have troubled children and troubled or non-existant relationships and marriages. I’ll take my middle class home and middle class life, along with my loving, grounded, devoted hubby, and my amazing family over what these women “have” any day. ; )
No wonder I don’t watch tv hardly anymore! lol
My high school boyfriend, (from 30 years ago), lived in Coto De Caza with his wife in a mansion on 2 acres.
He had a big gate to keep the “lookie loos” from venturing too close to look.
The sad part is that he viewed things in the realm of needing to brag, (endlessly), about his home, cars, etc., and then he would express concern that his friends were only concerned with his $$$. The Real Housewives of Orange County are a collection of boob implanted, whining, high maintenance arm charms. And the men evidently don’t possess the self-esteem necessary to want a woman with a functioning brain.
The most irritating couple, to me, is Slade and Jo. She is an unapologetic, self-absorbed gold digger- and he is a goofy-smiling control freak who uses his wealth in order to lure her back in and try to change her into what he wants- although, if she changed, he would no longer be interested. It is dysfunction junction.
I no longer watch. It’s like any other soap opera. But, other than Jeena, there is no “real” housewife of Orange County on there. There are, however, the most pathetic collection of puddle-deep, self-exploiting women who are cloning themselves to look alike and live in the lifestyle in which they are determined to be accustomed.
