We're only 5 days into the new year and the McDermotts are already on vacation. I wonder if they're going to top their vacation tally from last year (which I believe was 9 vacations.)

Are they actually on vacation right now? The reason I'm wondering is because of The Masked Singer (I really wish the forum for that would be posted). Anyway for anybody who doesn't watch the show, people who are already famous sing while wearing elaborate disguises. They give clues about each singer & the judges try to guess who the singer is. One of the contestants is a unicorn. I was reading a thread about the show & this was a comment:

The Unicorn is definitely Tori Spelling, based on the clues. - Tori is bird in Japanese - The Unicorn Hills sign in her clue represents Beverly Hills - The Horn Too Small that flashed on her is a reference to her being flat chested before she got implants - On Twitter, they mention that The Unicorn was a Girl Scout. Tori was in Troop Beverly Hills.

I have no idea how The Masked Singer is taped, if they do it during the week, or if all the shows are already done. If they're currently filming, then it can't be Tori if she's on vacation. Of course, if all the shows are already done, then it wouldn't matter what she's doing now. I guess we'll know when the unicorn is unmasked.

They might be back from the vacation now. I saw the vacation on her Instagram page a couple of days ago.

So apparently the kids are under criticism again.  When you read the article you have to scroll down to the pic farther down to know which one people were talking about.  Okay, so I know that we have talked about the kids weight, and most people are just glad they don't have major body issues like Tori.  I do agree with that.  That said, Hattie, Stella, and Liam are truly not looking great here, and they seem to be getting bigger (at least Stella and Hattie--Liam has remained that way).  I do think there has to be something other than genetics at play here because neither Dean or Tori seem to have brought those genes in.  Liam, Stella, and Hattie all used to have smaller frames when they were younger.  I just don't think they would all suddenly gain a lot of weight at a certain age--one or two of them maybe but not all 3, without external influences.

Damn, those kids are all Dean, they don't look like they have an ounce of Tori in them.

People (the body shamers, I don’t mean you or other posters here) need to leave the children alone. Liam has always been a bit chubby the last few years- he looks like his uncle Randy Spelling did at that point in his life. Many boys (and girls) have a bit of baby fat before puberty. None of the children are obese or anything close to that (speaking as someone who was an obese child and is an obese adult). 

Some kids are just chubby. And these children are SHORT (they haven’t reached their adult height). They may not have gained a lot of weight, but 10lbs on the body of a child before a growth spurt looks very different than 10lbs in an adult. 

Of all the issues the children could have this is the least of them. Despite being very thin herself I am glad Tori isn’t equating thinness with “goodness” or “value” in her children. OR worse not sharing photos of them because they are not “ideal”. I do hope they don’t let the kids read the comments though.

I totally agree they are not obese and it is good that Tori is allowing a healthy mindset in regard to weight. But I am still not convinced all 3 of them would naturally look a little overweight like they do. I am not comparing them to adult or adult height, I am thinking of children I see in my sons age group—a little older or younger. Most of them are pretty lean even when short. But there are rare exceptions and maybe Tori’s kids carry stronger heavy genes than I would expect.

Better a bit heavy than anorexic like Tori. JMO.

Randy was chubby as a child. Tori is a naturally slim woman/girl, but Dean’s eldest son Jack looked like Liam around that age. They are all full siblings- so it makes sense out of 5, a few would be on the heavier end of the bell curve. This reminds me of the Kardashian kids. When you look at old family photos Khole and Rob were chubby and we’ve seen how Rob ballooned up when he was depressed (Khole fights to stay slim)- yet the other kids (Kardashian and Jenner) have always been thin. It happens in families. The odd thing is ONE thin person in a family of chubby kids.

I think Tori does have mental health concerns- but I don’t think she’s anorexic. I think she has always been a naturally thin person, and when she’s going through emotional upheaval she Under eats (when most of the population over eats). I was watching some old 90210 episodes and she had a very cute figure before the implants. She was just too thin for such a big size (compared to Tiffany Theissan who had the buttocks and hips to balance out her implants and enough breast tissue to cover them), even with the implants, when they were covered you could see how thin and toned she was. Yes that was 25 yrs ago, and no one expects her to look the same- but I think she would be really cute with some tweaks (better implants, healthy diet, red hair color).

Good point.  I hadn't thought about Jack.  He kind of had an awkward body shape too.  I think the one that surprises me though is Hattie--she seemed to be on the smaller side, and she is looking more like Stella now.  Finn looks like he is going to stay thin--he seems tall and lanky.

Dean's response was really sweet.  I think that despite his flaws, he's a decent dad.

I do agree with that.  It is less annoying having him stand up for the kids versus Tori, only because she creates a lot of the drama with her instagram posts, etc.  He is more down to earth I think.  

[GaT 30.6k]

I don't know if anyone here watches "The Masked Singer", but a lot of people think that the Unicorn is Tori. if it is, how long do you think it will take before she launches her singing career?

[alexa 6.5k]

I have lost track how many times we see a headline that Tori is ordered to pay Amex, but apparently they had a recent judgment that she is ordered to pay them 88K.  Don't worry though, on her instagram she is bragging about growing her beauty business over 2 years and she can have all sorts of free business trips, including Ireland.  lol.  (I don't think she is actually making money at her "business")

Still Nu Skin? I don't understand how anyone can make money selling it.

To be honest I am not sure. She is never very clear about what it is. Lol

I hope my fellow posters will correct me if I'm wrong but it seems like a pyramid scheme MLM type thing. 

[alexa 6.5k]

I didn't watch the full episode, but Tori got her moment in the sun being exposed as the unicorn on the Masked Singer.  Lol.  People had speculated it was her, so I watched her opening segment out of curiousity and you could tell it was her because of the level of insecurity she expressed throughout her speech.

The insecurity makes me sad for her because as I've said in previous posts I do think she has a few talents. So many opportunities over the years have been squandered because she's a mess.

Just saw on ET that the 90210 reboot is a go.  As much as I have come to loathe Tori, I think this may be what she needs for her health and self esteem and overall well being, not to mention the money, which I am sure was the real motivation for this happening.  I watched it back in the day so I will be tuning in.  The premise sounds good and orginal and I think all of the original cast is doing it so I am in.  I think getting out of the house and away from Deano and the brood will be good for her.  And she may just meet her next husband!  LOL

[alexa 6.5k]

I just wonder how it will do. 90210 has really faded, so we will see. They did the one reboot with other actors and it didn’t take off like they hoped. Then Jen and Tori had a show that didn’t do well. I am curious but I am not sure it will get the attention they think. But it will be good for Tori at least temporarily.

The premise sounds intersting....the way I understood it they are themselves doing a reboot....like a show within a show.  Its about Tori and Jen and Jason and Brian etc doing a 90210 reboot so we see them as themselves And as their characters.  Could be good.  And its sounds like Shannon is part of it too which will be very intersting, especially if they are themselves irl.

It doesn’t have a network yet according to online news sources. Hopefully it will all work out. Lol. But I agree it will be fun to see how it goes. 

[Scarlett45 28.8k]

I saw Tori’s Instagram live while the site was down. She was on the Masked Singer- a venture that was a good way to get some income (not that she will ever learn to manage money at this point). I noticed she isn’t looking well. Her voice is extremely high (it wasn’t high when she was young) and it looks as if she’s put filers in her face? (Okay MORE fillers)

But it wasn’t just that. She didn’t seem WELL (mentally), a reaction to a medication? Not sure but I do want her to take care of her health for her children’s sake. 

[jcbrown 8.7k]

I caught a glimpse of her on some show promoting the 90210 re-boot and definitely agree that it looks like she has some fillers in her face. Her cheekbones just looked bizarre, her skin is too smooth and frozen, and her lips have been inflated. I tried to get a screenshot:

[alexa 6.5k]

You all will be glad to know that Dean says he is good with the size of their brood, but Tori has a gleam in her eye--indicating she wants more.  She is 45, had some difficult pregnancies, is broke, delusional, and of course she is considering another.  I just hope she keeps putting it off so it becomes almost impossible for her to do so.  But think of the risks she is taking since she has had difficult pregnancies and is getting older.

Tori's Valentine's Day Instagram was the most nauseating Instagram post I've ever seen. She actually wrote this: 

"If not for the passion and incredible love I share with my Valentine none of our little valentines (5 magical unicorn babies) would exist.  . . "

Magical unicorn babies? Who talks like that? 

And I don't think it was passion and incredible love that created their babies. It was a sex addict trying to get a hit and a pregnancy addict trying to find a new way to get attention. But hey, you keep pretending Tori.

I think that is what annoys me about her so much.  She is so delusional, and hides 3/4 of what is really happening in her life, and pretends we all don't know about it.  No rational person would be completely, obviously broke, being supported by their mom, and then go on to say things like, I want more children, or I am on vacation every month, etc.  She is really not very bright at all.  I hope her kids see right through her.  I think they actually have a ration of hope with Dean as he has moments of real life clarity, but not Tori.
