Tori Spelling says she wasn't asked to join “RHOBH” 'Cause I'm Broke': 'Let’s Be Real'

On the April 19 episode of her podcast misSPELLING, the Beverly Hills, 90210 alum, 50, shared her response when fans ask why she hasn’t been cast on the hit Bravo series.

"I'm like, I don't know," Spelling said. "Once, I asked Andy Cohen, who I love and have known forever, been on his show many times. He was like, 'Yeah, we keep getting this question.'"

"And I'm like, 'So, Andy, what's the answer?'” she continued. "He was like, 'Ehh, I don't know. You and the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills? I can't see it.'"

The actress recalled Cohen, 55, asking her if she already knew the cast of the series.

In response, she told the Housewives executive, “Every single one of them I am friends with and have known forever and have a history.”

What a missed opportunity.

She would be great on the show.

Better than Eileen Davidson and Denise Richads, that's for sure.

I'd love to see how Rinna and Tori would interact. That would be fun.

Good point, R2.

I wonder if there's some other reason they don't want Tori on the show?

It's like she said, she is the definition of a Beverly Hills Housewife.

by Anonymousreply 4April 20, 2024 11:39 PM

R4, it probably has to do with the Housewives brand, which is aspirational. Lots of them don’t really have any money but they spend money like they do.

Tori, if you’ve seen what she wears to the grocery store, doesn’t live an aspirational lifestyle. I seem to remember that her last fight with Dean involved a fully-loaded Wendy’s baked potato.

That is not, I imagine, the lifestyle that Housewives viewers aspire to no matter how luxurious Tori’s surroundings and friend group.

Her face would turn off viewers, plus she speaks like a 12 year old Valley girl from the early 90s with her overuse of the word like.

Peeing into her son's diaper in traffic, bragging about having the same vadge as an underage teenager:

“I had five C-sections, you guys,” the actress revealed Tuesday. “So, I have to go on record and brag for a second that my OB-GYN says that I have the lady parts of a 14-year-old, ’cause it’s intact. And I didn’t do five C-sections on purpose.”

Hard no.

I think fans should start a Twitter campaign to get her on tge show. I think *not* being aspirational would be a funny contrast to the others. If she gets half her mother's wealth, she'll be far better off than any of the other housewives. As r2 said. Glanville was probably living off child support & alimony. The kid's probably over 18 now.

R10, her mother already supports her but any wealth coming from Candy will be tied up in trusts, mainly for the grandkids.

Tori is a narcissist suffering from arrested development, so she sounds perfect for those shows. However, her desperation and pathological attention seeking are not endearing at all. Then there's her choice of Dean and staying with him so many years. Nobody normal could stomach either of them.

I can only assume there's a HUGE contractual basis from preventing her from going off on Mother Candy

Well, because Mother Candy married an ugly man for money & didn’t lay that narrative to rest.

First of all, why is Tori Spelling broke? For Christ's sakes, she's Aaron Spelling's daughter. Mother Candy Spelling--you made your point. Give your daughter some money.

Secondly, why in the hell did Tori Spelling have five kids if she's so broke?

Oh Toots, being broke has never been a reason yet to keep any of the broads off the RH's franchise. It's more likely they just couldn't come up with any way to make you look trashy/classy. You've got the trashy down pat, but the classy would be too much to ask of Bravo.

R17, Candy pays the rent, utilities, school fees, groceries and for the kids' clothes. Tori has serious money issues and about ten years ago admitted to having 120 or so storage units full of hoarded crap that was costing her a fortune to lease.

Since then, she has not gone into recovery so it's unlikely the number of storage units has decreased. It has probably increased. She earns money mainly by embarrassing herself, her children and her mother. It appears that income is spent on (bad) plastic surgery, a professional make-up artist, ridiculous hair extensions as well as clothes, accessories, and things she hoards/storage fees.

With all the financial help from Candy, she has still amassed huge amounts of debt. She's lucky Candy gives her anything.

R25, because she buys so much crap and has to pay to store it that she's blown millions. She could out-shop Candy, FFS.

She also could have been realistic about her looks and asked her father to mentor her in producing.

Instead, she created a series of badly acted "reality" shows to perform in and get her attention fix.

She creates situations that lead to her children being bullied, then plays the victim about it.

She is a total fucking idiot.

Are you for real? Candy was no prize at all, but she managed to marry the richest, yet ugliest man in Hollywood. Tori doesn't have realistic expectations about anything and punched above her weight in the looks category marriage-wise, bringing the finances to bear, probably thinking she could make out well based on her influence, yet, no.

She's not a male and able to shrug off unfortunate looks as society is more accepting of ogres with swans. And she could not bring the needed cash into the marriage ATM.

In his will Aaron Spelling left Tori and her brother $800K each and his wife Candy (an ex-hooker) the remaining $600M. I am in the minority here because I really like Tori and think she'd be a great addition to the show, and maybe just what it needs. She is unpretentious and a good person. Most people think of her as a spoiled brat but she really isn't, which is why, having grown up with great wealth and learned money isn't everything, I think she'd be great on RHOBH.

Bitch Mama Candy Spelling publicly blamed Tori for "killing" her father:

Candy Spelling is blaming the death of her husband Aaron Spelling on the heartache he suffered from daughter Tori’s alleged decision to cut off contact from the family.

Spelling said that she and her “Beverly Hills 90210”star daughter’s relationship has been nonexistent for the past several years.

“Ive always been trying to work on the relationship [with Tori],” Spelling said. “I don’t know what the anger is. My daughter one day decided that she wasn’t speaking to my husband, myself and my son and that’s how it’s continued for the last, oh gosh, four or five years.”

Spelling went one step further however, saying Tori’s abandonment ultimately cost Aaron Spelling his will to live.

“It was sad because that’s what killed my husband actually. He just didn’t want to live after that. You know, He had done everything … he could possibly do for his daughter and she wanted no part of him once he couldn’t do anything for her.”

"I love my mother. I've always loved her [and] no doubt she loves me," Tori said. "There's no feud. We simply never meshed. My mother is who she is. I've become who I am. At some point I realized those two just didn't go together."

R31, that’s truly stunning- trusts can be set up to limit the control of the beneficiary- e.g., a set income but principle controlled by trustee. Cannot fathom that a man with 600 million decades ago would not do such a common and simple thing to prevent potential mismanagement by heirs including his wife.

by Anonymousreply 34April 22, 2024 6:01 PM

R32, something in those quotes, if they are indeed accurate, does not ring true. Randy got the same as Tori but what did he do. Also, if Tori was sop greedy, wouldn't she have been sucking up to her father until the end? That said, Arron owed his children nothing but, also as said, there are such things as "spendthrift" trusts.

by Anonymousreply 35April 22, 2024 6:11 PM

Well, it's interesting R35. Randy Spelling who is a (chuckle) "life coach" was her mother's favorite (probably because he kept his name out of the press) has a net worth of $10M these days and Tori has a net worth of $150K. I would imagine that taking $800K in 2006 dollars and investing it, you could possibly end up with $10M, I don't know. He also lucked out, looking like a better cross between Mom and Dad (pic below) Meanwhile, the day after Tori and her kids were photographed living in an RV, Candy posted a picture of the roses at her multi-million dollar home saying "I'm happy to report that my roses are blooming." She was immediately burned in the comments.

R31, good people don't continually humiliate themselves and their children - to the point the kids get bullied - then give interviews whining about the bullying.

Tori lives in a fairyland where she's a beautiful, misunderstood Cinderella getting stiffed at every turn.

She already is supported by Candy and still can't manage the money she earns by instahoring, pumping it into her face and on her hair and hoarded items.

She cannot be trusted with money. That's why she's crying poverty.

by Anonymousreply 43April 23, 2024 12:01 AM

Well, Tori would be the first person to admit she has a problem overspending. I mean, it's obvious. But she's now living in a rented $15K/mo. 5-bedroom house in Woodland Hills, probably paid for by mom after being shamed for letting them live in an RV, so the family is doing better. I wonder if Candy dished out the bucks when Dean announced they were separating. I never watched her on TV but I picked up Stori Telling and liked the way she came off in the book. I think she's a good mom and a good person. Her mom is a piece of work. Coming out and saying Tori was the "actual" cause of his death. Bitch move.

Honestly, I blame him for how she ended up. He married a shallow, nutty, doll obsessed gold digger, paid minimal attention to raising his kids, then left the whole ball of wax for the gold digger to disperse the money as if she was suddenly a bird of another feather. Old cougars like leopards never change their spots. You would think he would have had enough sense to set up both of HIS kids with at least 10 mill so they would never have to work again. Drop in the bucket. But no, he left someone with the name of CANDY obsessed with Beanie Babies and dolls to actually control his empire and the fate of his spawn.

It's kind of irresponsible to raise two kids both Tori and her brother in the lap of luxury without teaching them life skills then just spit them out on the streets with pocket change if you consider how wealthy the Spellings were.

It's one thing to say you are an adult, go make it on your own when you are given life skills to do so, but instead they were taught growing up that being rich means everything is given to you for a price, which is no object. And dont worry, mommy and daddy have so much money when they die you will never have to struggle.
