This past weekend worlds collided as both past and current housewives from around the country came together in Andy's playground, NYC, to talk and gossip about themselves, their fellow cast members, and the future. The lineup of ladies and gentlemen who were in attendance was long, and did not just include the casts of the housewives. Instead, Bravo's entire line up including Married to Medicine, Below Deck (had to search that one up), and many more were featured at the convention.

But, to stay on brand, let's discuss the lovely ladies that we at ACT love to love and love to hate. There were a lot of names I was actually really surprised to see on there and then even more surprised when they showed up! Including Brandi Glanville, Taylor Armstrong, & Caroline Manzo, just to name a few. During the three-day extravaganza, it seemed that every panel had its own bit of shade being thrown, either between the ladies or remarks from Mr. Cohen himself. We've gathered the drama from the dirtiest and juiciest, so let us know if you agree or if you think we've missed some hot tea!
1. The beef between Phaedra Parks and Chanel Ayan
Andy Cohen, official pot-stirrer (move over Kyle Richards), asked the ladies of Dubai who has the worst fashion and Chanel Ayan responded with Phaedra. This had the audience boo'ing and so upset by this that Andy had to calm the crowd down. Miss Parks then responds with a quick snatch by explaining that she "owns all her own clothes", which made the crowd go absolutely wild. Ayan gives the audience a twirl and calls Phaedra a b*tch, and they move on.
2. Jen Shah wasn't allowed at the RHOSLC panel at BravoCon

Since the recently guilty plea made by Jen Shah in her case, the energy between her and 'having a job' has shifted. Andy Cohen was asked at the convention about her plea and he didn't hold back.
"Once we wrapped she pled guilty, I think that was kind of, unfortunately, the end of, you know, the engagement there," and "But I hope to sit down with her and talk to her at some point on camera because I have a lot of questions for her." - Cohen when questioned about Jen Shah
3. Joe Gorga thinks there's better fish in the sea that Luis Ruelas

First we must ask ourselves, other than being from Jersey, what has Joe Gorga done wrong? The man stands up for his family no matter what, and he's hot, some may say. When Cohen was asking Melissa Gorga questions though, he didn't hold back. Andy asked Melissa: What do you think will last longer: Joe's stand up career or Luis & Teresa's marriage? But it wasn't what Melissa had to say which took people by surprise, but instead what Joe had to say which was that he believes his stand up career is going to outlive his own sisters new marriage. Listen, do I want the two of them to fail? No, they got married in my town, but if Joe Gorga says that Luis isn't a good enough guy for his sister, maybe I'll keep an ear to the ground.
4. Erika Girardi saying that Dorit Kemsley and PK are the next couple to get a divorce
When Erika was asked: What Bravolebrity relationship do you think is headed to 'Splitsville' next? She responded with one of her own cast members, "Dorit and PK" and quickly walked off stage. Dorit then responded with an Instagram caption reading "Misery loves company. What else can j [I] say.. Our friends, those that truly know us, know what we have and who we are." But you know what, that's what we love and appreciate about Erika, she's always full of surprises.
5. Lisa Rinna getting boo'd at BravoCon
When Lisa Rinna joined her co-stars on stage this weekend at the Beverly Hills panel she was met with a boo from over half the crowd, leaving Rinna to flip them off in retaliation. But guess what? SHE LOOKED FANTASTIC! As soon as her fellow cast member Dorit recognized the boo'ing, she started to tell the audience to cheer, that there was no reason to boo Rinna. But she took it in style and the audience began to cheer her on.
In addition to BravoCon, Radio Andy, Andy Cohen's Radio Show, Andy tells the listeners that Erika told Rinna before they went to the panel that she was going to get boo'd and helped her get ready and face the crowd. You can hear the rest of the clip below.
