Housewife Deshawn Hits a Sour Note, Big Papa Makes a BIG Purchase

I thought DeShawn was one of the more sensible ones. But my mind changed after she botched a fundraiser she organized for her foundation.
DeShawn has absolutely no business sense whatsoever. To her credit she runs a foundation with a very admirable cause. However, a non-profit is a business and she failed to generate any cash during an event she organized on behalf of her organization. Her goal was to raise $1 million dollars in one night through auctioning high-priced items like the $14,000 bracelet that Big Papa bought Kim, Jimmy Choo accessories, etc.(a portion of the proceeds would go her organization). She has a lot of connections being an NBA wife and as an Atlanta socialite. So what went wrong? Instead of using her connections to make sure high rollers were in the audience who could actually afford $14,000 jewelry, she hands out fliers/invitations in the local stores where she was sure to attract the wrong people nor did she charge attendees to come to the event. So NOBODY bid in the auction. Complete failure. The most irritating moment was when she said to her husband that she couldn’t figure out what went wrong. Seemed pretty simple to me. But whatever.
Of course the other “housewives” were b*tching about the event behind her back.
One other thing that came to light this evening: Kim, the wanna be country singer said she has a nursing degree. So she does have a brain under that wig.
It looks like the claws are really going to come out next week when Kim and NeNe have a b*tchfight.

I missed it this week, I am in Savannah for work. I can't wait to catch it on rerun.
Can any policy,however high minded, be moral if it leads to widespread corruption,imprisons so many,has so racist an effect,destroys our inner cities,wreaks havoc on misguided & vulnerable individuals and brings death and destruction to foreign countries?
1I think next week will be a better episode. But it was entertaining to say the least.
2I cannot stand DeShawn, I knew she would screw up the stupid fundraiser.
3One of my friends said that DeShawn comes off as if she constantly trying to fulfill a void with all of her extravagance. But I guess they all to some degree.
4i, too, initially thought DeShawn was one of the classier ladies on this show (Lisa, the only other), but after this party she managed to turn me off! Although her organization serves an awesome purpose, & her husband's support to it rather commendable, her attitude seems to have adjusted in the WRONG direction! And i was quite disappointed that, not only did she not invite the right people but, her friends did NOTHING to help. i guess Kim's contribution helped, but if miss sheree can have 10-15 pairs of designer ($500+) shooes brought to her home while i have yet to see her actually do a job outside of trying to get all her ex's money for no reason why the heck can't she buy a couple jeweled pieces to help out a decent organization????
5laurennj, good point about Sheree's lack of donation. She acted like she didn't even want to go either.
6I Think Sheree's is a cold harded person.Why would she go to a party thinking she is Grace kelly(rich)and not donate money to her friend party.Kim is another story. It would take me all day to comment on her it take's to much energy.ONE WORD.FAKE
7I felt bad for DeShawn and yeah I totally noticed Sheree's lack of donation -- but WOW she was quick to point out WHO didn't donate and WHO shouldn't be there.
But I think NeNe could have stepped up and said "hey you should be charging" after her gay BFF (her words) gave her that advice. If I had doubts - I'd tell my BFF -- I'd want them to be successful -- but that's just me.
