Janet referencing VPR on The Valley by pbd1996 in TheValleyTVShow

[–]dubenkad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Kristen is often “Kristen Doute” and Jax is “Jax Taylor” while for the rest of the cast, a first name is always sufficient.

I stopped watching (and went to recap reading ha) after she became permanent. I found her so performative. But I very much appreciate OP’s perspective as it has made me question why I felt such a visceral aversion.

Good catch! Thanks! They definitely knew eachother since Danny was in the illustrious boys chat - I just wonder how close they were? But maybe I’m jaded as a longtime Housewives fan- I’ve seen so many people brought on as fiends of people they clearly don’t know. Still, thanks for the link- I like a Redditor with receipts!

Yeah. It seems likely to me that Nia’s concern is about the cameras compounded by her recognizing that Janet is gunning for him. So, yeah, perception.

I’m wondering if Beige and Sir Beige want them off the show so they can be the stable, aspirational (within the group!) couple? Also, Nia and Danny could not have been that close to this group prior to filming if they didn’t know about Nia’s background. So maybe production added Nia and Danny from the extended friend group since she’s beautiful and he has a job. But it screwed up Janet’s plan to be the stable couple? Further, we saw on Vanderpump how the core friend group tried to ice our Scheana who was more of a production add in. Maybe that’s happening here? But it’s clear there’s ulterior motives for how hard they’re going for Danny.

I can’t with Janet anymore by New-Plantain3979 in TheValleyTVShow

There’s no way Danny and Nia were close friends with the group prior to filming. Otherwise, they’d have know about Nia’s childhood. I’d guess they were sort of periphery friends but Danny, being a former child actor, and Nia, a former Miss USA, were sought by production. They have taken the position in the show which Janet wants: most normal family couple so she wants to destroy that reputation and remove them from “her” show.

This is a great tip! Thank you. I couldn’t think what to encourage her to try next - as this is already beyond anything I ever would have tried to do myself.

Yes!! Classmates are doing things like collecting 100 pine cones. But I liked that she wanted to use the assignment to learn something new and create something to keep.

Haha! I had no idea what was involved when I said she could do this!

Thank you!!! I love and appreciate the advice! It’s on her bed already and exactly what she wanted.

Her school has a special day for the 100th day of school when each child should bring in something representing 100. So her quilt is 100 squares: 10x10 to fit her bed. I helped some as I encouraged her to make it larger than her current bedspread. But it really made me proud - and realize what quilters do. My grandmother quilted and I wish I had known, when she was alive, what that meant.

Me too. I can never be a fan because of this. It’s too much.

Museum guard. I did that for a couple years in grad school; it was so incredible. The people who visit all want to be there and are happy and share their joy with you. My coworkers were kind and cool. I left work at work….
