Dana
Listen to your shoes.. Its what all of us think of you, Thanks for the blog.. on the shoes...
Shannon

There is such a big difference between money and class, and you can't buy class. Give up.

I will watch if you are on it. You have great spunk and the show needs it. Go get em TIGER......

Wow, I really don't like you, at all. I hope your not part of the show next season. You're not even likeable for the "love to hate" character. Re-wording Harrison Fords' famous line.....GET OFF MY....TV!

Pam/Dana?

I take great offense to your 'high-class-heels' with the "F.... you" on the side. I was willing to give you the benefit of the doubt until you so blatently brought them to the viewers attention.

Do yourself a big favor and watch ALL of the tapes again -- then return the $25,000 sunglasses, use that money to hire a therapist, a life-coach and a psychologist. Please take the necessary time to take a good look at yourself and make some good changes. If for nothing else, do it for your little boy!

THEN, apologize to Brandi! (And if you are a big enough person, apologize to the viewers for those tacky shoes with the terrible message on them).

Did you really just say 'shag' ....What would you girls say if Brandi had said that! ("Classless"?!) If you need reminding Brandi was/is joking about Ken im sure she doesnt actually want to steal him from Lisa?!! - she HAS a sence of humour wether you get it or not, dont make her out to be malicious when she is free enough of a spirit to make light hearted jokes.

First you say you were poor and on your own at 15 and then in the next sentence on the reunion you say you went to live with your rich father so you were a part of both worlds.Try to get your storys straight becuse you obviously were not on your own at 15 if you then went to live with your dad after leaving your moms. No woder you and Taylor are friends you are both pretentious liars.

Dana=irrelevant. Zzzzzzz

Just saw the last reunion show, and once again, you were revealed to be rude, unintelligent, and irrelevant in terms of this show. BRAVO, PLEASE BRING BRANDI BACK NEXT YEAR AND FIND SOMEONE ELSE TO FILL WHATEVER ROLE DANA WAS SUPPOSED TO HAVE!

You claim that your actions toward Brandi on game time were in defense of Kim and her children, yet you joined the other girls at kyle's charity party in bashing Brandi? What's your excuse now? Everyone can see how desperate you are in trying to fit in with the "popular girls." Guess things haven't changed since your childhood. If you are as strong of a woman as you claim to be that built a name for herself on her own, then why need to act like a little puppy begging for attention?

I hope you don't take all these comments too personally. Some are really harsh.

But you do come across on tv as trying really desperately to fit in with Kyle and Kim. And it seems like you are willing to reject people Kyle doesn't like. That's just what it looks like. It also appears that you'll do anything to stay relevant - like join in on bashing, tell Taylor she doesn't have friends, and just generally try to gt on camera. That's just what it looks like.
But I'm curious - why weren't you in Hawaii?

You are so real, in telling everyone a bit about your upbringing. I really enjoyed you "Pam", I hope Bravo makes you a permandent addition. I think your GREAT!, Spunky, and Fun!

I want to help you with a party dana! I love your work!

You are the best! I hope to see more of you! I love your smiles and you are so much fun!

Congrats on your weight loss! I am also trying to shed some pounds and find it quite difficult. I am only 5 feet so it is very easy to look "chubby" and hard to lose weight even with cardio sessions 4 times per week.

I haven't seen enough of you to really be a fan or not. Definitely some questionable comments like the $25k sunglasses or lollipop holder, but it seems like you are a loyal friend. The sucking up to the bully sisters during game night versus Brandi (the true victim) was hard to watch. You repeating it during the reunion was even harder to watch. You can not seriously think that Brandi poking at the truth of Kim continuously going to the washroom was justification for how Kim and Kyle treated her from blatantly saying they did not want her on her team and hiding her crutches. Your perspective is obviously biased because you suck their ass and Brandi is the new girl. The clips of you wanting to go to Hawaii and saying that's what friends do to Kyle while she rolled her eyes was hilarious.

I can see the good in you and your child hood story provided some light to your personality, but there is more to life than money and fame and I hope that you show a more real you than this fake one.

Dana ~ You claim that you and Taylor are really good friends. I was so surprised that she never told you about the abuse. Something just doesn't add up?

Dana is realistic and refreshing and definitly what every group of housewives need to remind them that strong, intelligent women are better than being snotty and pretenious.

Again,one word sums up your contribution to this season's Housewives: irrelevant

You were repugnant on game night - you need to own that.

How can you say you pulled yourself up from poverty when you claim your father was rich? Pulling yourself up means you did ALL the earning yourself not moving from the poor crowd to the rich. Remember, $$$ can't buy you class.

Why were you referring to yourself as a GUY again and again?
Btw, kindly follow Brandi's advice, and WATCH the Game Night episode again! KIM and KYLE started it by being an immature pair of mean girls and Kim loudly and clearly said she DID NOT want Brandi on her team, for NO GOOD reason. Brandi just made an observation about Kim's frequent visits to the powder room, and they willingly ganged up on her and you, the hostess, joined in. If you found her offensive for joking about your fiance's faithfulness, then you shouldn't have invited her. Instead, you looked simply and blatantly immature and with an intended ulterior motive by inviting her and gladly humiliating her 1st chance you got. If you're going to try to be a part of the elite group, please learn proper etiquette. As a hostess, you're supposed to make sure that ALL your guests are happy and that they feel welcome. If you had a problem with her then you should have taken her aside and calmly asked her to leave. Instead you asked Kyle to "Make her stop!" in a girlish manner. Really, and you're a party planner? Yikes, Dana, you really need to reevaluate why and where you attach your loyalties.

Dana the first thing about being a classy lady (according to Emily Post) is never
make anybody feel bad -particularly a guest!!!! You ganged against Brandi, "just to belong" but lady you really don't belong there, that is the sad reality, better go to Jerry Springer show.

Oh, poor Dana. Delusional, party of 1. You cannot win anyone over bragging about or exaggerating what you've got. You and Taylor are perfect together. Mazel!

I hope you are NOT on the show next season!!!! I will NOT be watching....are you listening BRAVO????

I know right where you come from. I get you now. You are fun and light and a blast to watch. I hope you come back next season. Thanks for giving us a window into your childhood. Sounds like you had a tough time. You turned out GREAT! We love you and hope you come back. Next season sneak in some Red Sox gear if you can!

"Unfinished business?" Sounds like a threat. I used to like you a lot, not anymore.

People who come from humble, humiliating and horrific backgrounds tend not to brag about themselves or their money. You need to read a "Miss Manners" book or perhaps the Countess can give you a copy of her book. You do brag and it is not pretty nor tasteful.

If you are back next year, I will be extremely disappointed with Andy and Bravo execs because a leopard doesn't change its spots.

Dana,
Your story of growing up explains quite a bit about the manner in which you try to protect Taylor. I think it's too late for that, as her fan base has reached an all time low. But, you do not seem anything other than kind (a bit showy) and I do wish you well.

At Kyle's white party you were showing pictures of Brandi, said you had made up with her, and going on about how much fun she is, and what a good time you had in Vegas with her.

While laughing, parting and taking pictures with Brandi in Vegas did you ever once mention that she was in away to blame for the treatment she received at your game night? Did you tell Brandi that she had "been poking all night" no, I would bet the ranch you didn't.

Which is it? You left home at age 15 and built yourself up OR you moved in with your rich father and went to the finest high school in the country?

Hi Dana,

Stop trying so hard. No one respects a brown noser. By the way, Kim and Kyle did not need your protection at game night. Brandi did. You were not a good hostess.

I doubt that Bravo will have you back next season so take care.

Brandi's comments about Kim were not literal & were not perceived to be factual by mature viewers. Kim has only herself to blame for her daughters' disappointment in her portrayal on the show. It's time you & the Richards' stop blaming Brandi for your collective awful behavior. She says everything most adult viewers are thinking, in her own audacious manner, & that's why she's the 2nd favorite cast member. She may not be as tactful & charming as lovely Lisa, but like her she is always honest & humorous. Bravo should invite her back.
The character you've displayed on the show & on blogs is insipid & complacent - not even close to being amiable.

Dana
I can't believe you're originally from Methuen, Ma.! Its' so exciting to have someone from this area(I live in Noth Andover) become as successful as yourself and appear on RHOBH. WTG!!!

Hi Dana,
Born and raised in Andover, MA. have 5 uncles, all teachers, Central Catholic, Phillips Academy, Methuen Tenney. Nice to hear you mention Methuen, MA, presently work here. Do you ever make it back this way? Good luck to you with everything, Susan

PLEASE quit trying sooo hard and saying "that's just who I am". It makes you appear needy and desperate! And, by the way, I'm not a "Brandi-person"....

Television is not the path for everyone, and certainly not for you, Dana. . .

It's better for some people to be tv viewers rather than be tv entertainers.
So please do something else where you dont have to keep trying so hard and failing so badly.

Maybe I don't understand your definition of a guest. In my world a guest in my home is respected, they should never be treated badly by myself or anyone in my home. The minute you heard Kyle and Kim being rude to Brandy you should have asked them to leave, which is what Brandy did when Taylor went of the deep end with Camille.

Why were you referring to yourself as a GUY again and again?
Btw, kindly follow Brandi's advice, and WATCH the Game Night episode again! KIM and KYLE started it by being an immature pair of mean girls and Kim loudly and clearly said she DID NOT want Brandi on her team, for NO GOOD reason.

Was the big "F*** You" for Bravo, the other cast members, or the audience? So much for a future in diplomacy! None of us can save you now, and many of us have been trying since the great $25,000 sunglasses debacle of 2011. Don't let your past ruin your future. You have scaled the wall---don't look back!

The cheating comment that Brandi made at the BBQ, was obviously a foot in her mouth joke, she didn't say it to be mean, it was unrehearsed, something she blurted out. But if any other housewife had said that same joke to you, you would have not taken offense to it, it's just that Brandi said it. Double standard. Also, please figure out that Taylor would drop you in a "hot minute" if someone who was more useful to her told her to. She is a user, I hope you know that. I actually enjoy you on the show and hope to see you next season!

Your defense of yourself and the mean girls on game night (and your recollection of events) is getting ridiculous! Your good friend Kyle even apologized (in her way) for her behavior towards Brandi. Lisa apologized to Brandi because after she watched the episode she realized how mislead she had been about what really happened. I'm not quite sure why you keep holding on to this fantasy that anyone cares what you think or what you have to say.....
You had, maybe, 45 minutes of screen time for the entire season and (this makes me laugh) 6 minutes of time on the reunion, less than even the husbands and yet your the first to blog and make your "observations" of the episodes. 
You have been petty and mean spirited towards Brandi repeatedly, while she rarely mentions you, which I can only chalk up to jealousy. You have also been all over Brandi for her cussing and then you come to the reunion with shoes on that have f**k you on them. Way to keep it classy and not become a "hillbilly".
I can't imagine what would possess Bravo to make you a housewife next season, but I certainly won't be watching if they do.

That story regarding your life explains a lot. I am happy for you and your success. It would like to see you in next years episodes.
God Bless

Did you just justify bullying by saying you behaved that way to protect a women you had never met's grown children? Priceless.

I too came from both worlds so I really understand you. You as a housewife would be great but you have to be more real like the reunion not a fake ass kisser. I hope we get to see ur wedding and ur realtionship good luck!

Dana, I LOVE your forwardness attitude, it is very easy to see why you are the successful person that you are. After hearing how started at the bottom and worked your own way up through life, it is teuly an inspiration to me. I have dreams also and someday...I will be able to afford to open the doggie daycare that I long to open. I'm not looking to anywhere near as rich as you financially, just happy with life and happy spending my time with animals. Making money doing what I love would only be a plus in life. Thank you for being an inspiration for someone who has been at the bottom, lost alot in life and struggles each day to make it through another...I could my blessings each day and know that i too, will succeed somehow!

Wow, you are ANGRY spice!

Dana, you say you went to one of the top schools and talk like: "I'm a guy who's not from anything...and I'm a guy who's face was shoved in it"? Last I looked, you were a "girl." Also, you may have thought those shoes were funny, but it said A LOT about you.

You love money.. Ok, we get it. Is there anything else?

Dana, don't let the foolish comments here get to you, these haters don't posses the understanding to see how strong of a person it takes to confess and acknowledge ones weaknesses on national tv. Pat yourself on the back for being real to yourself!.
To the haters here, instead of bashing Dana, you people should realize that suddently loosing a mother at 15 is a very tragic event for a teeenage girl, at that age the maternal role model is a what helps a girl become a woman, Dana did not have that, so why don't you people grow a heart!
Dana, kudos on your weight loss, keep on being you, spend your money as you please and ignore the haters, you did great on the reunion, I hope to see you next season!

Dana, I wish you so much success in your princess castle wedding just outside of Paris with your $25 k sunglasses, million dollar lollipop holder, WTF hot pants, and Beth the Bounty Hunter "F You" platforms with their diamond accents, and ESPECIALLY as you ride off into the sunset with the collection of things you substitute for a meaningful life, and are NEVER showing up in the lens of a Bravo tv camera again!

First of all.. When did you become officially one of the cast of TRHOBH? If you are I'm sorry, I missed the memo. But anyway, YOUR less than modest behavior is so disgusting that I would never want to root for you as a cast member. You're so annoying. Get a grip and take a look at yourself.

Explaining your upbringing was enlightening, but how it's evolved your life is really disappointing. You have shown yourself to be social climber who will kiss the butt of anyone that you think could help you rise higher. It's pathetic how much you will sell any integrity for the chance at an invite with someone you think is in a higher social circle. You can wear whatever shoes you want, but it's REAL obvious your shoes should say "kiss up"
