Twitter Goons Attack Lisa Vanderpump In Defense Of #RHOBH Fans Turning On Andy Cohen
When Andy Cohen dragged Lisa Vanderpump during the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills reunion, he probably never expected the intense fan backlash that immediately returned the favor.
In a strange turn of events, Twitter turned ugly Saturday, when a few social media goons took a few snarky comments from angry fans, and blew them into alleged homophobic rants.
Disgruntled Vanderpump fans were dubbed nasty bigots — blasted for remarks noting Andy Cohen’s homosexuality. Some of the tweets under fire are quoted below:
[otw_shortcode_quote border=”bordered” border_style=”bordered” color=””]”should have bitch slapped his ass! I hate when he [Andy] takes sides, how gay is that?!”
“Good for you…so jaded wf Pansy Mandy n da whole RH franchise anyhoo…dnt watch apart frm ATL & BH now BH is off my list 2 #sad”
“And he’ll never get rid of Phaedra because he [Andy] has a major fantasy of having prison sex with Apollo. LOL”[/otw_shortcode_quote]

A few ran with it, categorizing Vanderpump fans as raging homophobes. Makes NO sense — but these goons gave it their best shot.

Many saw through the agenda, and called out the hyped, and dare I say — manipulative responses.

The drama cranked higher when the social media thugs demanded action from Vanderpump, a passionate and outspoken LGBT supporter. There was even a call to attack Vanderpump’s businesses.

The twitter blather also included a claim that the drama was causing a drop on Vanderpump’s fan base — a ludicrous claim, to say the least.

Lisa threw them a bone, and responded, in the midst of the drama.

The goons finally backpedaled and eased up. The desperation is REAL — as Cohen continues to feel the heat, and the reunion fallout continues. Vanderpump fan twitter snark slams Andy’s abhorrent reunion behavior — period.
