Kelly Dodd News: 'RHOC' Talks Joining Show, Thoughts On Co-Stars [VIDEO]
Kelly Dodd opened up about her first season of reality television in a new interview.
After filming the 11th season of The Real Housewives of Orange County, Dodd spoke of how it feels to be the latest addition to the long-running Bravo series.
"It feels great. It’s been such a great experience and a really fun experience. It’s awesome and I have enjoyed myself through the whole season. I love it!" Dodd revealed to the Huffington Post last week.
Prior to joining the show, Dodd was a viewer -- but only of the early seasons of the series.
"I watched it more when it was more of the beginning, the Cota De Caza scene. Once they started fighting...I really liked the relationships, the family, the teenagers, the parents," she explained. "All the fighting stuff, I really wanted them to get back to the women and the family. I kind of stopped watching then, but when it would be on I would watch it, just never from the beginning to the end. I would see it because I would have Bravo on, I just didn’t follow it strictly.
Although having cameras follow you don't sound like the most normal of experiences, Dodd adjusted to the production process quite quickly.
"You know, actually it seemed very natural," she said. "At first it was weird, in the beginning. I felt very natural since I built relationships with the camera people and the production team. It seemed very natural and not very weird. They are in here quite a bit, but they are great and such awesome people."
"I think I was my real authentic self, I feel like the other women aren’t, at least a couple of them-Shannon and Heather-are fake," Dodd continued of her co-stars.
Below are Dodd's one-word descriptions of her co-stars.
Heather Dubrow..."Fake."
Megan King Edmonds.."Sweetheart."
Tamra Judge.."Two Faced."
Vicki Gunvalson.."Fun."
Shannon Beador..."Crazy."
The Real Housewives of Orange County season 11 airs Mondays at 9 p.m. on Bravo. Check out a sneak peek of next week's new episode below.
