Joyce: Brandi Is Simply Sad

Hola Mis Amores! This week I went with my husband to a LGBT Family Equality awards dinner, and I want to use this platform to say that the one thing that should rule the world is LOVE. I know it sounds cliche and I respect everyone's opinions; but in this day and age we cannot discriminate and more so: We cannot tell ANYONE who they can or can't love.

Before I go into this week's episode I want to say that some people have thought I'm a bit naive. I'd like to differ. I know how to read people. But perhaps because of the fact that I always like to see the good in people and because I'm happy and make no apologies for it some might consider me naive. I'd rather be happy and naive than a miserable hypocrite.

OK...This week we see Yolanda going to Mohamed's home to plan Gigi's party. I frankly do not understand Yolanda's jabs at Lisa. As she previously said on multiple occasions: Lisa was her great friend and part of her dream team. Now all of a sudden she uses every moment she can to throw some shade at her. I could see even Mohamed was uncomfortable with the way she was talking about Lisa.

Kyle, Mauricio, and Alexia were so cute! I love their family dynamic and their girls are the sweetest! I can't believe Carlton would invite Mauricio to her in laws company party and uninvited Kyle. Really? like her husband is going to go without her!

The day of Mauricio's and Ken's birthday I was attending a birthday of a very dear friend when I received a call from my mother telling me I needed to leave to Puerto Rico immediately. I flew with my husband right away. . .

When we came back I did the work out you saw in the episode with Ivette and right after I had terrible news and flew back once again to Puerto Rico. Something really sad happened but I know God has a divine plan for everything and I'm grateful I was able to go in time. That's the reason I've been a bit MIA in the episodes -- but you will understand soon.

Moving on to Carlton's party: Seeing Brandi bashing Lisa to Kim was horrible! Brandi bringing back something she had already discussed and resolved in a previous season was a pathetic attempt to stay relevant and was the beginning of what I saw as a coup against Lisa. Her very own dream team conspiring against her! I was just as shocked to see this as you all must have been as I had no idea her BFFs would attack her.

I think they are all fighting to be the Queen Bee so they decided to attack Lisa.

Brandi saying Lisa was having her do her dirty work and having her say things is very contradicting, since she always claims to be honest and says no one can make her do anything she doesn't want to do. Then Brandi says Lisa is worse than Bobby Fisher and that she's playing the biggest chess game of all. Excuse me?!?

Brandi is the one who started plotting against Lisa from the get go when she was supposedly "warning" me against her very own BFF. That's a hypocrite and a desperate girl that will even betray her own BFF just to stay relevant! Simply SAD! I'm actually still mad at myself for believing her apology.

PS: Lisa was stunning in her photo shoot.
