The Daily Roundup you’re listening to is part of the Reality Steve Podcast. I’m your host, Reality Steve. Thank you all for watching this Friday. There are still some things to deal with here. Bring you a good show. Wednesday will feature the second part of the finale and more talk about Survivor. The more I think about it, boy, they better do something, because this is probably the most boring two hours we’ve ever seen.
James Kennedy. Vanderpump Rule (formerly Vanderpump Rule) was arrested on domestic violence charges. We found out yesterday that it happened on Tuesday night. Kristin Doughty and Rachel Reeves reacted. Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco are engaged. I was more interested in the arrangements he made for her engagement.
And then I’m going to tell the Michael Jackson story, which is really weird. I wanted to arrive yesterday but couldn’t. We’ll get to all that shortly. OK Starting next year with the Vegas Fan Appreciation Party on May 31, 2025 at the House of Blues at Mandalay Bay.
I was like, let’s see, let’s see. This is already the third one and about 25% full. So far we’ve heard back from people in Sacramento, Chicago, Atlanta, St. Louis, Phoenix, Seattle, all over Washington State, and of course some Las Vegas locals. I know there will be more. I still have a few more that need to be thrown in.
People who email me late tonight, I have to respond to them, though. First come, first served. If you want to join, please send me an email. Let me know. You acknowledge that joining the party will cost you nothing. Confirmation of your attendance at the party is your flight itinerary, hotel itinerary, or if you are a Las Vegas local, please promise me that you will not cancel my trip.
And then the other thing is when you email me and let me know you’re coming, you send some kind of flight itinerary or other information or even if you’re local or hotel confirmation, let me know that you’re coming The names of everyone in the arriving party. Also let me know what city you are from because I just want to keep track of where everyone is from.
That’s why I can rattle off some of the people who have responded, like I said, St. Louis, Seattle, Chicago, Sacramento, Atlanta. Washington State, Phoenix, Denver. So, yes, there is a benefit, and that’s usually what it is. Honestly, last year, I believe we had a hundred people come to the party, but only 25 of them were locals.
I mean, it comes from everywhere. So just wanted to throw it out there and let people know. Obviously first come first served. This year I have more space. I don’t think I’ll be selling next. Two weeks or something like that, but it’s better to get in early than worry about getting in late.
So just wanted to mention it. Well, let’s look at some of the stories I’ve mentioned publicly. I first want to talk a little more about Survivor, the first part happens, Andy comes home, Genevieve comes home. You think, OK, but they’re two better players. That doesn’t mean the really good players always make it to the end.
But now for me, next week there will be a two hour finale to part two. We know at least the last hour or 45 minutes will be because they’re no longer airing the finale live. They filmed the finale there during filming. So these guys knew months ago who was going to win. I don’t know if it’s been posted anywhere yet, but I don’t even know if we need to spoil this season of Survivor because now you’ve seen the final four of Rachel, Sue, Tiny, and Sam.
OK Well, I’m sorry, but Sue and Teenie have absolutely 0% chance of winning this game unless, well, I’d say unless they’re the last two, but Jeff Probst said on his podcast yesterday, no, It won’t be the last two this year. We still have the final three. So if Sue or Teenie or both of them somehow made it to the final three, they would both get zero votes and we would be eliminated.
There’s no way they’re going to get the vote. This is between Sam and Rachel. Well, Rachel is clearly the best fire-maker. So even in the next immunity challenge where the four of them compete. Even if Rachel loses or doesn’t win, no matter who wins, if they lead Rachel to the final three, well, she might win.
If they, they force her to light the fire, she will let her light the fire, she will make it to the final three and probably win. Unless I’m missing something here and I’ve read enough online, Sam had a decent game. He’s not scary. He is a great commentator for this game. But did he defeat Rachel?
We know Sue and Tiny have no chance of being Rachel. Sam is the only one who might have a chance, but I don’t see any reason why Rachel can’t win this one. So it’s almost like a formality of what’s going to happen next Wednesday. I guess it’s just a matter of whether she’s going to be out because she’s done everything that’s been asked of her.
She had the best game of the remaining four. Like I do think Genevieve has a chance against her in the finals. I think Andy. There was a chance to face her in the finals. I’m not sure what the jury will make of Andy, but at least he has something on his resume where he can say, I pulled off the biggest heist of the season in Operation Italia.
So I could see that once he told some of the people on the jury, maybe he could influence them. Genevieve did have a really strong game, but man, how did Rachel not win this one? There are two people there, Teenie and Sue, who have zero chance of winning, I give Sam a 5% chance unless I am blind to something and he blows everyone away with his final tribal answer They were all stunned.
I don’t think Sam can win either, so, this seems like a very boring ending with Rachel dominating the victory, which is always nice, but you always want there to be some kind of cliffhanger in the ending, or maybe I feel that someone does have a chance, more than one person has a chance to win, this, this seems to be Rachel’s bag, and it is indeed the case.
In the world of Vanderpump Rules, or the old Vanderpump Rules, that’s not exactly good news. We found out that James Kennedy was booked on possible domestic violence charges Tuesday night. In Burbank, California, police received a call about a man and woman getting into an argument at a residence. Law enforcement believes domestic violence led to his arrest.
He was booked on a misdemeanor domestic violence charge and later released on bond. Charges remain pending. A witness allegedly saw Kennedy arguing with a woman in Burbank. before catching her, according to reports. TMZ first reported the news. Officers who responded to the scene did not see any visible injuries resulting from the reported altercation.
Well, those of you who have been following Vanderpump Rules for a long time
It’s very clear that James Kennedy had a very problematic past. Now, he has been sober for two years. He seemed to have cleaned up his act, but it wasn’t long before Kristen Doty posted a screenshot on her Instagram Story with the caption, James Kennedy Arrested for Domestic Violence, She Just to go with the title at the end, and then Rachel Levis, his attorneys Mark Galagos and Brian Friedman said, we know that James Kennedy was recently arrested for domestic violence.
Unfortunately, this news doesn’t come as a surprise. Rachel’s revenge porn lawsuit describes in extraordinary detail Mr. Kennedy’s long history of erratic behavior, violent behavior and substance abuse. So, obviously you hope it’s nothing serious, you hope it doesn’t happen, but obviously something did happen and maybe it was a result of him.
Maybe he fell off the wagon. You hope, obviously you just hope for the best in people, you hope they don’t do this, and you don’t do this, they don’t do this, you hope they don’t exhibit this behavior. It was obvious that he had experienced this in the past. We’ve been thinking about it for the past two years. Maybe James has turned the page.
Maybe he has turned over a new leaf and done something good for himself. It seems like he’s doing much better on the show. He is happier with his girlfriend Ellie. We don’t even know who the other woman in this dispute is. I think most of us assumed it was Ellie because it was actually Wednesday night, the next night, and she was at an event by herself.
She was like a host or something. During that event, she took many photos. He didn’t even participate, but he did on Tuesday night. He was with her on Tuesday night. Apparently some people said he was erratic that night. So you hope this guy doesn’t fall off the wagon.
Apparently there was some kind of altercation and he was arrested for domestic violence. And, but officers said there were no visible bruises. So I think we’ll find out more as time goes on. Maybe James will talk about it. Maybe Ellie will talk about it. If it’s Ellie, we think it’s just because they live in their Burbank home.
But yeah, who knows? We don’t have enough information. But I will say this doesn’t look good for James. He has had this experience in the past. You just hope this guy, who has been doing so well in recent years since his sobriety, doesn’t fall off the wagon. You hoped this wouldn’t happen to him, but it most likely did because he’d been acting erratic at a party the night before.
