Andy Cohen revealed that The Real Housewives of New York City's Dorinda Medley's iconic speech actually brought him to tears in season nine. Unsurprisingly, this speech took place in the Berkshires of Massachusetts, which tends to bring out the worst in the women.
Fans remember the infamous "I made it nice!" speech from season 9 Berkshires Blue Manor fame, as it is the most quoted Dorinda Medley line of all time. This line came about when Dorinda reached her breaking point on an annual Berkshires Blue Manor cast trip. After a screaming match with RHONY alum Bethenny Frankel, Luann de Lesseps made fun of the birthday cake Dorinda's mom baked and decorated for her. Dorinda yelled, "I cooked, I decorated, I made it nice!" But her unforgettable one-liner actually had a lot more depth to it, according to The Real Housewives of New York producer Andy Cohen.
"'I made it nice' [is more iconic] because that 'clip' [comment] was a cute moment and it was great and whatever," Andy Cohen said on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen, referring to the moment when Dorinda cut everyone off, yelling "clip!" when they dared to speak about her. "But 'I made it nice,' the thing that makes the speech so iconic is that it is a speech. It is a speech that anyone can relate to. This woman broke her back to have her friends come over. She cooked. She cleaned. She made it nice. And these b*tches are disrespecting her at every step of the way [and] her mother's cake – and she broke."
The host of Watch What Happens Live and Radio Andy added, "I almost cried when I saw that for the first time because I just thought it was so relatable for every woman or man who has spent a long time preparing. And many people have breakdowns on Thanksgiving night. It just is emblematic of doing something and not being respected for it." Don't even get Dorinda started on Luann's disrespectful comments about the "fish room"!
We can't determine whether Andy Cohen actually shed a tear during Dorinda's breakdown. Now, however, we're wondering just how many other speeches have deeply affected the host. Did he cry when the ladies disrespected Ramona at her birthday party on the July 23 episode or was Dorinda's speech the only moment in The Real Housewives of New York City history that brought him to tears?
The Real Housewives of New York City airs Thursdays at 9 pm on Bravo.
