THE BRAXTON FAMILY MADE A SCENE IN BEVERLY HILLS

Viewers of “Braxton Family Values” know that the five sisters and their mother Evelyn have very different opinions of their father Michael. Evelyn split up with Michael years ago after accusing him of multiple infidelities. The girls still love their dad and last Saturday Tamar and her mother Evelyn were shopping in the men’s cologne department of a Beverly Hills store. Tamar was looking at $300 designer cologne as a gift for her father and her mother became outraged. Evelyn went ballistic, yelling “To hell with your father! Get him some Old Spice – that’s good enough for HIM!” Our witness told us it was like a scene from their reality show. They continued bickering as they went out the door and left observers laughing. Dad didn’t get the expensive cologne. (Above photo: Toni, Tamar, Evelyn, Traci, Towanda, and Trinna)

KIM K LEADS THE PACK OF CELEBRITIES WHO WANT TO CONFRONT THEIR “HATERS”

A series is being developed by the CW that might be of great interest to some of our more critical readers. The reality show is called “H8R” (pronounced “hater.”) Casting directors are searching for average people who, for whatever reason, have an extreme distaste for a particular celebrity. These are generally the people who leave scathing, insulting comments about certain stars. The hated celebrities are given an opportunity to come face to face with their haters and try to reason with them and change their opinion. Kim Kardashian filmed a segment where she confronted a hater at a yoga studio with Mario Lopez. Interesting idea, but how many celebrities will really WANT to confront their haters?

CAMILLE GRAMMER IS SMARTER THAN YOU THINK

Camille Grammer (above right) says she has no intention of returning for a second season of “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.” Now that Kelsey Grammer is divorcing his trophy wife – you’d think Camille would welcome the distraction of doing the Bravo series. She has earned herself a questionable reputation on the show (her 2 kids with 4 nannies, her relationship with married tennis partner Nick Stabile, her nasty psychic friend, and her 50 million dollar settlement demand) and the only way to prove she’s a decent person is to continue doing the series. (Plus it increases her chances of finding a trophy husband.) Well, you don’t have to worry about Camille – she happens to be negotiating with Bravo to get her OWN show about her life as a single!

GET IN LINE LADIES, RYAN O’NEAL IS LOOKING FOR LOVE

Ryan O’Neal wants the women of Los Angeles to know that his is now officially available for dating. (In fact, he was seen sweet talking a woman over dinner at Mastro’s recently) And there’s a bonus – his lucky dates are likely to appear on his new reality series on Oprah’s OWN network. Ryan and his daughter Tatum both want to be on TV so badly that they’re willing to try and get along while doing a show based on their reconciliation called “Lost & Found.” (If you recall, Ryan didn’t recognize Tatum at Farrah’s funeral and hit on her!) The series will feature both of them in much-needed therapy sessions and also their respective dating lives. Hence the opportunity to date Farrah’s ex.

PARIS HILTON WANTS TO ONE-UP HER FORMER FRIEND KIM KARDASHIAN

Paris Hilton is desperately trying to regain her popularity by filming a still untitled reality show with Charlie Sheen’s drug addled estranged wife Brooke Mueller. Her former best friend and protege (and assistant?) Kim Kardashian, has usurped Paris’s hard earned celebutante title. Paris’s photos don’t sell any more and Kim is red hot. A few years back Paris took Kim to her first Hollywood parties and introduced her to the red carpet. Kim carefully observed how Paris carved an image and made herself famous – and she also noted Paris’s mistakes. The next thing you know Kim made a sex video too, and had her own reality show “Keeping Up With The Kardashians.” Now Kim gets the private jets to parties and Paris has to pay her own way. She’s hoping a new show will change things.

CAMILLE GRAMMER IS NO LONGER A BEVERLY HILLS HOUSEWIFE

Now that her marriage to Kelsey Grammer is over, Camille Grammer of “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” feels like she’s no longer a housewife. So she’s jockeying for a reality show of her own. She wants the cameras to follow her as she makes her way back into the single world and starts dating. Certainly the well-heeled Camille will attract a bevy of suitors and if she dates the right producer- she just MIGHT get her own show!

KHLOE KARDASHIAN IS A DEAD RINGER FOR LAMAR ODOM’S EXWIFE

Khloe Kardashian’s husband Lamar Odom was not happy when his exwife Liza Morales refused to allow their children Destiny, 12, and LJ, 9, to appear on his and Khloe’s new reality show. He sued Liza for visitation rights to his children and reduced child support. Liza remarked that she was surprised he was interested in his kids all of a sudden because he spent so little time with them over the years. The reality series will go on without the kids, but we were astonished by how much Lamar’s exwife Liza resembles Khloe. Liza could be another Kardashian sister!

SOMEBODY’S DISGRUNTLED BECAUSE AUDRINA PATRIDGE WAS KICKED OFF “DANCING WITH THE STARS”

We weren’t all that interested to learn that Audrina Patridge has a new VH1 reality series about her family starting after her stint on “Dancing with the Stars.” Until, that is, Audrina was voted off the show and her mother Lynn was apparently outraged. Audrina and her mom and friends had a few drinks at Beso later that night and her loose cannon of a mother took a smoke break outside. Paparazzi eagerly filmed her cocktail fueled blurt that “Audrina should have WON!” She went on an expletive laden tirade about how Audrina’s new reality show would be better than “The Hills” and she badmouthed Lauren Conrad. As her startled friends dragged her inside, Lynn yelled “Drina is going to the next level, baby!” Looks like another dysfunctional, but amusing family.

TWO REASONS WHY LARA FLYNN BOYLE GOT A REALITY SHOW: ANOREXIA AND PLASTIC SURGERY

The fact that the former star of The Practice, Lara Flynn Boyle, 40, has a new reality series on E! has a lot of people surprised in Hollywood. “Why HER?” they want to know. The premise of the show is supposedly Lara’s dual life – as a wife in Texas (married to a real estate developer) and as a Hollywood actress. (If she were still dating Jack Nicholson it would be a lot more understandable.) But, let’s face it, Lara’s REAL appeal is the fact that this pretty actress has weight issues (she’s been accused of anorexia) and plastic surgery galore. Her lips and face have changed radically and THIS makes her highly watchable.

MICHAEL VICK’S REALITY SHOW CAN’T END SOON ENOUGH

Did anyone even NOTICE that The Michael Vick Project on BET is kaput? Vick says he quit after the first season of ten episodes aired because he hates the cameras following him. Footballer Vick, the most hated man in America after he was arrested for torturing and abusing dogs for sport, had hoped the show would garner some sympathy and forgiveness from the enraged public. Viewers report that there was little regret displayed on the show (except that he was CAUGHT) and in fact the dogfighting was explained as “cultural.” Vick didn’t get the forgiveness and redemption he wanted, and probably figured there was no use beating a dead dog. For many, his name will always be synonymous with evil.
