The Second Most Evil Woman in America Plots Revenge
Yenta, Media Whore and all around douchenozzle Jill Zarin is ploting a return to TV after getting bounced from "The Real Housewives of New York." Supposedly she is plotting to have an new Fox show called "Beverly Jillbillies" which will chronicle her move to LA from New York. That is going to be one hot mess.
Jill claims to be a designer but her companies are going nowhere. Her shape wear company seems to have failed miserably and her jewelry designs are not on HSN or GVC and so they are not going anywhere. She just arrogantly decided that her name recognition was such that people would blindly buy her product. That's not how it works. You have to have a good product to sell. Shape wear is dominated by Spanx which has become almost the generic name for the product. You know you say Q-tips even though you might be buying the CVS brand for a few pennies cheaper. She has no clue as to how to market an promote a product.
Now Jill's husband Bobbi is a fabric maven and he has his family store here in New York. LA is a big market for fabrics, maybe even bigger than New York because of the Asian connections. Many manufacturers buy fabric out of LA so there will be tons of competition. Plus it is a pretty closed shop out there so I doubt he is going to open a store. So it will all be about Jill. Just the way she likes it.
The funniest part of the whole thing is how Jill claims she cast Bethenny Frankel in the Real Housewives and that she should get a cut of everything that Bethenny developed since being part of the show. Her arrogance and sense of entitlement is staggering. If she indeed gave Bethenny her shot well that is great. But everything Bethenny got she earned. She developed her cocktail. She marketed it. She made herself enough of a likable and bankable celeb to carry her own show. Jill had nothing to do with that. If anything she tried to sabatoge it by trying to get the other girls to refuse to film on the new show. Sometimes people who gave you some help when you started out want you to kiss their ass forever. It is as though Frank Sinatra still had to pay Tommy Dorsey or something. What a load of crap. You suceed or fail on your own merits. You should be humble and thankful for the shot but you don't have to go through life kissing their ass. That's not how the world works. Just sayn'

I thought Liz Smith would land somewhere after she was broomed out the the New York Post.

But if that's any sort of geographic trend, she might be onto something. Hate to say it but desitiny is manifest.
If the trend is that anyone who can't cut it in New York will move to LA well you might have something there.
LA would be a great place for Rex Ryan and the Jets. Just sayn'
No! No football teams!!
