I'm worried for Jackie


She opens her segment with a line about how she won't sit back and bite her tongue with the other women any longer then proceeds to shade Toya, Simone, and Heavenly about being fat when they used to be fat and have since lost weight. Seems like the diplomatic cast members have to switch to being messy in order to get a pay check. It's not worth it.

Oh Jackie's gone over "to the dark side." She's always "beat" and you don't catch her looking a bit tired even though she seems to work harder than any of the other ladies.

YES. My thoughts/fears exactly. During the first season she was always my favorite; she was the most diplomatic & mature & grounded & intelligent & classy & down-to-earth. And she was all of these things WITHOUT being boring. She would always make sure to rise above all the childishness. I loved watching her. But now, little-by-little, she has been going more & more to the "dark side" ugh. It's unfortunate to see. Maybe she's been hanging around Simone too much...

I'd like to know what drew Jackie to Simone in the first place. I can see why Simone would like Jackie since she's more soft-spoken and doesn't challenge Simone when she's in the wrong, but what made Jackie look at Simone and think "I like her! Let's be friends!"? 

Jackie has always been shady toward the other ladies so the only thing that surprised me was that she was more out in the open with it in her confessional.

I prefer the classier shade, but if you're looking to make it past 2 or 3 seasons it seems like you have to get in the muck with everyone else.

It reminds me of Cynthia Bailey on RHOA. She handled Kim, Sheree, and Phaedra's shady jabs with class and didn't let them get to her, but would throw a bit back at them. Now she's hemming and hawing her way through laughable accusations of Phaedra cheating on Apollo with Mr. Chocolate. I hope Jackie doesn't go that far, but I wouldn't be surprised if she did.
