On the heels of a reunion that was at times emotional and at other times confrontational, The Real Housewives of Orange County is already looking ahead to Season 15.

And, according to a new report, some of the faces you see down below may not return in 2020.

Indeed, major changes may be in the works.

The Real Housewives of Orange County Season 14

Then again, they may not be.

Radar Online reports that producers are strongly considering rehiring Tamra Judge, Shannon Beador, Vicki Gunvalson and Kelly Dodd once again, "but they don't want the show to become redundant and stale."

We believe the contracts of all these long-time cast members are up, meaning it's more likely than it has been in the recent past that at least some of the women are not brought back.

Ahead of Season 14, of course, Vicki Gunvalson was demoted from series regular to mere "friend."

"The drama was good with Tamra, Shannon, Vicki and Kelly," this Radar source continues. "But do viewers want to keep seeing the same thing over and over?"

It's a fair question, and also a difficult one.

As Bravo's longest-running franchise, The Real Housewives of Orange County is in the unique position of knowing just what/who works -- but executives don't want to run these people into the ground.

Better to shake up the cast a year too early than a year too late, you know?

As for Emily Simpson, Gina Kirschenheiter and Brauwyn Windham-Burke?

Radar describes each as being on the "chopping block," elaborating as follows:

"The viewers don't connect with the new ladies as much as the longer-existing ones. A few new ones will return but the viewers are invested in the main four."

During the reunion specials, of course, Vicki accused Brauwyn of "destroying" the series she had built, mostly through raunchy antics such as kissing another woman and walking around in the nude.

However, this source tells Radar that ratings were actually solid for Season 14.

Vicki "doesn't drive the show," this report states, seemingly hinting that new cast members are in better position for next year than some of the more seasoned personalities.

Make you think and wonder, doesn't it?

Vicki, meanwhile, is already having regrets.

Perhaps she realizes that her future on the program really is in doubt.

"Yep, I'm pretty disappointed in how I acted too," she wrote on social media after the reunion aired.

"It was a horrible night, and there is a lot you didn't see. I'll take the blame for getting upset, but I had enough of being lied to."

Who do YOU want to see return for The Real Housewives of Orange County Season 15?

Kelly Clarkson: My Husband and I Get It On Every Night! - The Hollywood Gossip

Posted: 27 Dec 2019 09:01 AM PST

Kelly Clarkson has made it very clear in a very revealing new interview:

Her life would seriously suck without husband Brandon Blackstock.

Her love life, that is. Or, to be more specific and a tad more X-rated, her MAKING love life.

The original American Idol champion, who is now a beloved talk show host, took fans by extreme surprise during a sit-down interview with The Voice season 14 winner Brynn Cartelli on Thursday.

At one point, the multiple-time Grammy winner decided to host an AMA (a.k.a. Ask Me Anything) -- and she very much abided by this acronym... because she truly meant anything.

After talking about their must-haves on a deserted island -- what albums for Kelly, what food for Brynn -- the 16-year-old asked about Kelly's night time routine.

A seemingly pretty tame question, right?

"This is actually one I always think about because I see it in interviews all the time and I always think about asking everybody this because it's so interesting to me," Brynn began, inquiring:

"What's the last thing you do before you go to bed every night?"

Does Clarkson wash her face? Check out some Trevor Noah?

Maybe and maybe.

But, to be blunt, she also goes to Pound Town her husband.

"Well, Brynn," a blushing Kelly said with a laugh, "I was single for many years, so…I have children and how one makes children is generally what I do before bed."

LOL, right? You go, Kelly!

"That's not a lie, that's real! And it's not weird, it's natural," Clarkson then insisted, feeling a need to defend herself, despite all listeners likely just reacting to her response with admiration and jealousy.

Cartelli's response? "And this is why America loves you!"

She's right, of course.

Along with Clarkson's incredible vocal talent, it's always been her honest and her relatability that have helped elevate her to the top the music business.

Clarkson has never shied away from discussing her private time with Blackstock, with whom she shares five-year-old daughter River and three-year-old son Remy.

(Having two young kids and still maintaining this sort of sex life is simply remarkable.)

The artist is also the stepmother to Blackstock 17-year-old daughter, Savannah, and 12-year-old son, Seth, from his previous marriage to Melissa Ashworth.

"Any time we're in a discussion about sex with a bunch of couples, Brandon and I stay pretty quiet. To keep it family appropriate, let's say we're just a lot more active than other couples," Clarkson told Redbook in November 2017, adding:

"I'm a person who loves change. He loves spontaneity. Having a set time or place [to have sex] would be boring to us."

She also said this at the time:

"I never felt like, honesty, sexually attracted to anybody before him.

"And I'm not downing my exes. You know, everybody's different. But there was something about him. I honestly thought I was asexual—I'd never been turned on like that in my whole life.

"I was like, 'Oh that's that feeling...OK! That's what they were talking about in Waiting to Exhale. I just got it. I just didn't have a clue."

And this didn't change when Clarkson had kids?

Nope. Quite the opposite.

"Becoming a mother and a wife, I mean, it sounds funny, but I've never felt sexier," she has said. "I've never felt more confident. I've never felt more empowered."

Gina Kirschenheiter Breaks Down Over Husband's Alleged Abuse - The Hollywood Gossip

Posted: 27 Dec 2019 03:22 AM PST

In one sense, Thursday night's Real Housewives of Orange County reunion was humorous, as Vicki Gunvalson went off on a co-star's penchant for nudity and same-sex kissing.

In another sense, however, this special was troubling and traumatic.

Most notably when Gina Kirschenheiter detailed the terrible abuse she suffered at the hands of Matt Kirschenheiter.

Gina broke down into tears on the reunion, recounting the details of the alleged attack, which she says occurred back on June 22 — a month after Bravo cameras had stopped shooting.

At the time, Gina and Matt had reconciled, their 11-year relationship and eight-year marriage another try after previously separating in April 2018 and filing for divorce.

Gina said on stage she was motivated to do so for the sake of her three children:

Daughter Sienna, 5, and sons Nicholas, 7, and Luca, 4.

Where did it all go horribly wrong?

The two got into a serious argument at Gina's home this summer, according to court documents obtained by The Blast, where Matt allegedly choked Gina... hit her... dragged her... threw her ... and threatened to kill her.

This all suppoosedly took place while their three young kids were sleeping in the other room/

Matt has thus far denied all allegations.

"He just was like a different person," Gina said on Thursday's reunion.

"I was really scared. I ran out of the house, and I rang my neighbor's doorbell, and I was banging on the door. And he dragged me back in the house."

Gina finalized her divorce from Matt about two months after this incident.

"A lot of the neighbors heard. They all called the police and then the cops came, they arrested him," Gina said, through tears, to Andy Cohen yesterday. "It was scary. It was really scary."

Kirschenheiter was charged with two felonies for the alleged incident by the Orange County District Attorney's Office for allegedly grabbing Gina and dragging her on the pavement back into the house after she fled.

If convicted, he faces up to four years in prison for domestic violence and up to an additional three for false imprisonment.

He has pleaded not guilty, but here is his mug shot:

In her aforementioned legal papers, Gina alleged that there had been "other incidents that have scared [her] in the past … too many to remember," including an argument in August 2018 involving a shotgun.

Despite their alleged fight, Gina told Cohen at the reunion that she still had compassion for Matt. adding that he had "immediately" apologized the next day and even sent her flowers.

"I do feel bad, because I feel like he cracks," she explained.

"And I do feel that some of this is because of the show. He knew at this point that I had shared a lot of this on the show, and it's not an excuse, but it's really hard."

In conclusion?

'I look at myself like a strong person, but I just think I'm always like, 'I can hold it together,' and thought I could handle everything," Gina said. "And, I don't know, I didn't see it. I thought it was normal."

Kirschenheiter also said that she and Matt are now peacefully co-parenting.

"I just know that it's so better that we're not together," she told Cohen, of herself and Matt. "I don't even want anything. I just want out."
