Many fans have missed Crystal Kung Minkoff on Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, even some who were critical of her time on the show. Somebody who has critiqued her in the past is TV producer Carlos King. In her latest podcast, Humble Brag with Cynthia Bailey, Crystal confronts him about his opinion of her on RHOBH.
Crystal joined RHOBH for three seasons and was often overshadowed for being quiet initially and staying out of the drama. But, for Crystal, that was just her personality. She may have taken a couple of seasons to warm up, but before she could really get going, she announced her departure from the series.
Crystal Kung Minkoff tackles Carlos King’s RHOBH critiques
Now, Crystal is confronting Carlos about his many critiques of her during her time on the show. The former producer joined Crystal and Cynthia to talk about RHOBH, RHOA, and so much more.
“You don’t think I like you?” Carlos asked the former RHOBH star.
“I don’t,” Crystal answered. “You’ve been critical. And now we can talk about it,” she said. Cynthia said that Carlos definitely “extracted some thug out of Crystal.”
Carlos asked Crystal if she thought she could come back to RHOBH now with a vengeance, considering the show and cast members from Season 14, minus Garcelle Beauvais, who also recently announced her departure.
“100%,” Crystal answered. She explained that fans would often say that she didn’t realize how big the show is and that she acts like “it’s very small.” She explained that she didn’t try to act like it’s small; it’s just small to her compared to other things in her life. And she had a good perspective on what’s important.
“It’s (the show) smaller than my life with my husband,” Crystal explained. “It’s smaller than his career. It is. For me. I think they resented that.”
She added that for the show to grow, RHOBH needs the people who built it to usher new girls in. “I think Beverly Hills is a struggle because they don’t want to usher new girls in,” Crystal admitted.
Carlos quickly asked Crystal if she thought RHOBH is Kyle’s show.
“I think of her as sort of the queen bee of a sorority,” Crystal answered.
