RHODC At Fashion's Night Out In Georgetown

Article from the Washington Examiner.

By: Katy Adams and Nikki Schwab
"The Real Housewives of D.C." cast members Mary Amons and Lynda Erkiletian strutted their fashionable selves down the red carpet at Fashion's Night Out private event at Roche Salon in Georgetown Friday night.

The ladies and sixth "housewife" Paul Wharton came out to support the D.C, fashion scene and served as co-hosts for the evening along with WUSA 9's (very pregnant, but beautiful) Angie Goff, Project Beltway's Rachel Cothran, CityShopGirl's Kelly Collis and Urban Daddy's Jeff Dufour.

VIP guests sipped on champagne, snacked on hors d'oeuvres and posed for photos with Lady Gaga posers and Cirque du Soleil dancers. After thanking the crowd for coming, Amons dished to Yeas & Nays about what she's been up to.

"I just got back from L.A., and I'm going to be on 'Access Hollywood,' E! News and there's a big feature on me and my charity and part of the show in the L.A. Times coming this week in the entertainment section," she said.
Amons started her nonprofit Labels for Love, which benefits women and children, in 2006. She tells us the reason she got involved in reality television was to bring attention to the charity, and it seems her decision has paid off.

"We're tracking the traffic to our Web site, and since the show was announced we have 400,000 hits."

Amons will host her own fundraiser, the District Sample Sale, on Thursday, where she will be collaborating with Fran Drescher's group, Cancer Schmancer.

Amons declined to gossip about what's going on in the "Housewives" world but she did allude to the fact that she will not play a role in any new drama.

"It's all going to unfold but I think I'm out of the woods with drama, with the real drama," she said.

Michaele Is Too Wacky For The Other Housewives

Post from Hollywood Life.

And Michaele’s husband Tareq Salahi might just be the cause of Michaele’s social downfall!

The division between the women on the The Real Housewives of Washington, D.C. continues to grow as the women definitely don’t want Michaele Salahi to be a part of their group anymore. “She’s just a little too wacky for me to really connect with,” Lifestyle guru and a regular on the show Paul Wharton told HollywoodLife.com exclusively Aug. 28 at the Swagg tent during the closing day of the Bridgehampton Polo Challenge hosted by Hamptons Magazine in Bridgehampton, N.Y. And “I think [the other housewives] do” feel the same way!

“I think that they did the show means that each of them likes a bit of attention,” Paul said. “Obviously the one who craves the most attention is Michaele.” That’s what makes her different from the others.

“She even said something in last week’s episode like, ‘As long as people are talking about you, then you’re doing alright,” Paul told us. “Well, I think the other women [Lynda Erkiletian, Catherine Ommanney and Mary Schmidt Amons] – don’t necessarily feel that way.”

“You saw some of the interviews like on the Today show and on The View where Michaele was like, ‘You’re just jealous of me,’” Paul said. “Nobody in that group is jealous of her. Believe me!”

“I don’t know where her story can go,” Paul added. “You know what I think — and this is a hard thing to say because this is my honest opinion about that — I think that Michaele could come out ahead of everyone else if she left her damn husband! She could say she was being manipulated. She was in an abusive relationship. He does control what she is saying. He’s like all into that.”

“I don’t know how she could come back without getting rid of him because the wheels are slowly falling off,” Paul said. With Tareq gone, maybe Michaele could get her social life back in order. … Michaele and I were very close. We had a great friendship. It’s unfortunate. [But] she’s always in my heart.”

Paul Wharton-RHODC Looks At Both Sides

Post from the Washington Examiner.

By: Nikki Schwab
He's not officially a housewife (and doesn't even think "housewives" accurately describes the five local women on the reality television show), but celebrity stylist Paul Wharton gets enough face time in the first episode of the "Real Housewives of D.C." to be considered part of the cast.

"You can look forward to seeing my many moods and hairstyles throughout the season," he told Yeas & Nays, adding that he filmed with the cast several days a week for five months.

In the pilot, which debuts Aug. 5, he is seen hanging out with both Michaele Salahi and Lynda Erkiletian and delivers a message to Salahi that Erkiletian, who owns a modeling agency, thinks she's gotten too thin.

Throughout the season, he tries not to take sides, he tells Yeas & Nays.

"If I had an issue with someone, I dealt with it the same way I would in real life -- with the support of my full hair and makeup team, good lighting and a couple of cocktails," Wharton said.

And while cast members Mary Amons and Stacie Turner downplayed the White House crash, Wharton has a different take on the infamous incident.

"If the gate crash turns out not to be a big deal on the show, someone in the edit [room] is getting canned for sure," he said.

Meet the sixth housewife of D.C.

This city may snooze in the depths of summer, but reality TV never sleeps.

During a week when our dance card had dried up, we got a last-minute invitation to a cocktail fundraiser for MenzFit, a nonprofit that gets struggling fellows into proper suits to compete in the job market. And, as with so many invitations lately, the grim warning was: "This event will be filmed for TV."

The cameras were there all right, on the rooftop of the Donovan House hotel Thursday, circling one partygoer in particular. Paul Wharton, a local stylist and occasional TV personality (VH1, CW), hasn't been highlighted in the promos for "Real Housewives of D.C.," but he's poised to emerge as the unofficial "sixth Housewife." The flat-ironed, high-cheekboned fashionista is all over the premiere, debuting next month -- cackling as Lynda Erkiletian declares Michaele Salahi to be anorexic, then telling Michaele what Lynda said. Fun! And Thursday, a camera (labeled "HYP" -- for "Housewives" producer Half Yard Productions?) rolled on around him . . .

Now wait: It's too late for the first season of D.C. "Housewives," and too soon to shoot a second season. . . . Do we smell spinoff? Will the madness never end? We pried Wharton (pinstriped skinny pants, pointy shoes) from his frenetic airkissing. "I am in the business of TV, and D.C. is the place to be these days," he told us cryptically. "I've found a great partner in Half Yard . . . and the rest you'll have to see.".
