I HATE JILL ZARIN

Welcome to the Real Housewives of New York.

We are just short of midway through the season and wow what a season we've got going!

Before we go any further, what you need to know about me is that I hate Jill Zarin! I'm not a complete bitch, I have reason! At last count, I think we're up to about 79 reasons.
Since there are so many, let me list them quickly, in no particular order…


-Jill acts like a complete fool at her daughter’s photo shoot embarrassing the hell out of the poor girl.

-Jill calls the always volatile Ramona, puts her on speakerphone while Luann sits beside her and proceeds to ask Ramona about an issue with….you guessed it Luann. Jill, “I had no idea Ramona would go off like that”. Have you met Ramona, Jill?

-Jill blames Bravo’s editing for making her look bad … something she criticized Kelly and LuAnn for last season!

-Jill begging fans on her BravoTV.com blog not to judge her too harshly… the Queen of Judgment wants others not to judge her?

-Jill listens to a voice mail message meant for Luann left by Mario. Instead of encouraging Luann to work it out with Mario, she says, “Bring It On Bitch.” That is how she interprets Mario’s call? Evil.

-Jill expects Alex to pick a side between Bethenny and her stating, “If she chooses my side, that’s ok but if she doesn’t, we’re going to have a problem”. Isn’t that in the instruction manual for 6th grade girls?

-Jill attacks Alex for information about Ramona’s party eager for the gossip – 13 year old, honestly

-Jill then blogs about a “rumor” she heard that indicated Bethenny had been bashing her husband Bobby at Ramona’s Labor Day party. Jill claims that it’s all in the “lost footage”. Wait, there was footage of Bethenny bashing Bobby and Bravo chose NOT to air it? Who believes that?

-Jill holds onto a voice mail message for 3 months, then plays it for the entire world to hear!

-Jill criticizes Alex’s little boys every chance she gets. When Alex confronts Jill about it, Jill is condescending and again blames others – in this case LuAnn and even Alex herself for her timing.

-Jill sends an email Kelly saying she is disappointed that Kelly chose to bury the hatchet with Bethenny. Um, Jill, that is what adults do! Try it!

-Jill puts Bethenny’s call on speakerphone for Luann to hear when Bethenny called to try to reconcile. The ultimate in classless, shameful, hateful, immature behavior!

-Jill uses silly, childish distractions when she clearly doesn’t know what to say. “What does disproportionate mean?” Get yourself a dictionary Jill.

-Jill made fun of Alex’s gay during the day friend Darryl, who seems like a sweet kid. Jill actually said he “scared” her? Seriously Jill? Did you think his clothing was going to attack you? Yet the next episode we see Jill at Perez Hilton’s party, now THAT should have scared her. Did you see those people???

-Jill has been recruiting other Bravo celebrities for Team Jill including Patti Stanger, Kelly Cutrone, NeNe Leakes and poor Teresa Giudice who was guest blogging in favor of Jill. Jill knew what was going to be revealed as the season went on. She knew that encouraging these people to support her could affect their own fan base – Jill didn’t care!

-Jill didn’t care how many fans Teresa would lose when the truth came out about how awful Jill was this season. Teresa also has a book coming out and it could hurt her book sales. Once again, Jill couldn’t care less. Jill is a USER.

-Jill continues to beg people to buy her book although intelligent fans acknowledge that someone like Jill giving relationship and parenting advice is absolutely ridiculous. I pity anyone who pre-ordered it.

-Jill said in an interview that she was told by Bravo producers that she would have to “bring the drama” or face being cut from the show. In short she is blaming the producers for her horrible behavior. Luckily Andy Cohen sent an email clearly stating that Bravo NEVER told the cast how to act, what to say, or what to do!

-Jill has insinuated that LuAnn’s place on the show was in jeopardy because she moved to the Hamptons, and her life as a Countless woman would be dull. Jill was bringing the drama to help LuAnn remain on the show.

-Jill pulls out her diamond credit card for the camera's, under the pretext of showing it to Countless...get a grip Jill

-Jill brings her disguistingly smelly dog into the guest bedroom to fart all over the bed that her guest is about to sleep in.

-Jill gives LuAnn's book a shameless plug by flashing it on camera. At least we now know where the one copy that sold ended up!

-Jill dramatically overreacts to Bethenny's presence at Ramona's house then proceeds to completely reject Bethenny's attempts to try to clear the air.  Jill's reaction was completely out of line!

-Jill does not shed one tear when faced with her former BFF who was clearly extremely upset, crying and emotional.  Then asks, "Am I a cold bitch for not crying?"  YES Jill, you are!

-Jill then quickly realizes she IS a cold hearted bitch and treats fans to a FAKE cry!

Outside of what you’ve seen on the air, there has been much activity in the Zarin camp over on Facebook. As of today, Jill has blocked her Twitter account to make it private. Interesting. On Facebook Jill and her cohorts can control what is said, delete what they don’t like and basically ensure that her site looks like everyone loves her. On Twitter she cannot control what is said, she can block users but that only stops Jill from seeing a tweet from that person, but the rest of the twitter world sure can! Less control, Jill hates that!  I was told personally by a RHONY cast member that Jill has her assistant Darryl, Darrin, Dwight...whatever his name is...he does the monitoring of the Facebook page and has instructions to ensure that Jill never sees the negative FB posts, he is to delete them asap!


So what Jill is doing is trying to get back into the good graces of fans, how? Well she posted on Facebook a question to fans about how to go about making up with a friend when they won’t talk to you. Hmm I’m not sure Jill, why don’t you ask Bethenny? Or maybe your mom or sister? Or wait a minute, didn’t YOU write a book about relationships? Why are you asking your fan’s (both of them) what to do about Bethenny?

Next she decided that she would finally answer the question about what happened to Brad. Well I happened to find Brad on Facebook and he actually is asking fans of the show to email Bravo and ask them to bring Brad back. So while Jill posted on Facebook that Brad is doing great and is working elsewhere, the fact is Brad is trying to make a go of decorating on his own after being let go from Zarin Fabrics and is distraught about not being on the show any longer.

Rumor has it that Brad and Jill fell out when she asked Brad to hide an affair that she was having. Jill wanted Brad to promise that he would do everything in his power to ensure that Bobby never found out.

Finally, did anyone else notice that when Bobby did appear on the show having gotten the “all clear” phone call from his doctor, there was no bandage on his neck, no scar, no evidence whatsoever that he had recently had his throat cut open from ear to ear as Jill said to Bethenny. Another Lie Jill???

My overall assessment of Jill Zarin is this. I see her as a major control freak, and she is self-centered. I do think she loves her daughter unconditionally but I think she is jealous of her sister who is an attorney and radio DJ.

She claims to be very close with her mother; however I think she is disrespectful to her mother. We all saw the eye-roll which in my book is never acceptable. Add to that they were on national television, she is a grown woman and the eye-roll to the mother is now raised to a whole new level in my book.

  3. You know all that is so true!! When she's confronted she doesn't let the other person speak! She gets on the defense, she never does anything wrong. I saw her on a tv show omg she didn't let anyone speak she took over the show! Did she eat a parrot?? Jill needs some growing up to do and own what she says and does, admit her mistakes and LEARN to LISTEN!!

  4. I have to agree with you on most points ... except I can't say "hate" - I think hate takes too much time & energy ... though the link name certainly did it's job to get me here :-)

    Having said that, this is a quicky of what I would like to add, perhaps if The-Jill ever read it & could reflect on ...

    "You know what Bethenny? We ARE done" | "Well then Alex, we just shouldn't mix in the same social circles" | You know what Ramona? You're not my friend either" | "What? You all aren't happy to see me?"

    To Bobby, while selling him on buying her the new diamonds; "If you buy me these maybe you will get something later". Thud~

    Somewhere ... it was written ... to be mindful of the things you allow to pass from your mouth, (though not precisely in those words) - editing or otherwise.

    Food for thought~

  6. Not saying I'm a Jill fan, because I'm really not a fan of no adult acting foolishly- not just Jill! I am totally agree that Jill hasn't been the nices, but who has on this show? It's all centered around drama. When Jill was acting ratherly childish in the many harsh things she said and how she treated Bethanny, it was sad. But for all of them to gang up and do to her what she has done to Bethanny, was so uncalled for. Two wrongs doesn't make a right! Instead of crushing their beef and admitting that wrongs have been made, these adults decided to continue the hurtful behavior. Despite Jill's past behaviors, I do not dislike her. I just believe that she didn't make the best decisions, just as no one has. And for you to critize her every move is a little weird. Like who does that??? Why are you keeping track like that??? And you said you hate her! That's such a powerful word. You are hating someone who doesn't even know you exist. Don't hate, trying loving and forgiving. That way you won't write a ten page blog bashing Jill. Because in the end she's a loving mother, wife and beautiful person. She, like all of us, have made mistakes. And she, like all of us, doesn't deserve to be harshly judged. In the end, if you judge others, you too will be judged.

  7. I saw this on another site and thought some of you might be interested.

    I think we are all pretty much pissed about the TV guide article so let's let everyone know. Bravo cannot be counted on as far as listening to viewers go.
    Plan is to email TV Guide and as many others as you like.
    Then post on every blog and facebook you can think of like we did with petittion. Just copy and paste the following: (let me know if it can be improved)


    We, the viewers of Real Housewives of New York are fed up with Jill Zarin and the way she is portrayed in the press and on TV. Just last night she was on EXTRA promoting a book that is well known to be garbage. A. Chandle the #1 reviewer at Amazon.com http://www.amazon.com/review/RA5UPKPM4DJAK has been threatened and harrassed by Jill Zarin. Jill Zarin has written positive reviews for her own book under fake names while posting negative reviews to her castmate's books. She also has a history of doing this with the Fabric store her husband owns.
    Please keep this woman off TV and out of the press. It is time for her to pay the consequences for her actions.
    Thank You,
    Housewives viewers"

  8. She is a difficult human being to like.
    She is extremely petty,self centered and a hypocrite.To be honest the vast majority of these women leave nothing to be desired.
    I thought last season Sonia seemed cool but her ego seems out of control.LuAnn,who in the first season really appeared human (helping out drug addicted woman trying to get her life back)now seems pretentious and two faced.Kelly appears uncomfortable on camera and not sure of herself.
    Ramona is an Hysterical basket case and MEAN,the abuse and dysfunction she absorbed as a child is passed onto those she encounters...Alex of all these women is the most likable as she is honest and real(i have never met the Woman so this is not biased).i hear the social climbing criticism and think basically you may as well hate most human beings because we all feather our own nest to some degree.I side with her because although flawed(like all of us) she appears to be a decent human being.Sadly the rest cannot be said for the remainder of that cast....
