Gossip Game: S01E05 Recap

Just in time for the Jason Collins story, we have the LGBT-themed episode. Yay.

Apparently Viv got kicked off of some chick named Steph Lova's show because... Steph Lova was smelling Viv's pants? WTF. There is no way I could make this up. So, basically, Steph Lova goes all apeshit because she is not gay. HOW DARE SOMEONE CALL HER GAY. (Sounds like she's closeted. Who else is that homophobic in NYC? Come on.) Then she proceeds to tell her listeners that Viv would know about teh gayz because Viv's daughter is gay.

OH NO SHE DIDN'T.

Viv has a heartfelt talk with her kid, Kayden, who reveals that he's actually trans, and is transitioning from female to male. He just wants to look to everyone else what he feels like inside. She just wants to check the bitch who talked about someone birthed from her cooch. There is a lot of crying and hugging, and in the words of Kayden, "this feels stupid." Stupid emotional, that is. Made me tear up.

Viv plots her revenge. First, she contemplates posting on her blog about how gay big old gay Steph Lova is. The show films her typing under the headline "Steph Lova loves talking about innocent kids." Finally, Viv confronts Steph Lova in person. They exchange some heated words, Viv spits on Steph Lova, and the two have to be physically separated when that escalates to near violence. The episode ends with Viv being dragged off camera by a security guard. But not before she gets the last say, "You're mad at my daughter cause she's proud to be gay, and you're still [bleep]ing hiding in the closet, you desperate ho!"
