The Real Housewives of Orange County cast should think twice before messing with the mystic practice of voodoo.
In Us Weekly’s exclusive sneak peek of the Thursday, August 14, episode of Bravo’s hit reality show, the ladies are divided into two unlikely groups as they explore another day in New Orleans.
“That’s an interesting throuple that just walked out,” Gina Kirschenheiter says as Tamra Judge, Shannon Beador and Gretchen Rossi depart for a chat. “What do you think they’re talking about?”
(Funny you should ask, Gina. They may be talking about you and your friends.)

“Are they making voodoo dolls about us?” Tamra, 57, asks as Gina, 31, joins Emily Simpson, Heather Dubrow, Jennifer Pedranti and Katie Ginella for an arts project. “They’re gonna be possessed.”
In two separate confessional interviews, Tamra and Jennifer, 48, are asked to describe what the other person’s doll would look like. What comes next is some easy shade that could only occur in the Big Easy.
“I’m pretty sure Jen’s voodoo doll was, ‘Oh, let’s make her look like Tamra. I’ll use her hair extensions. I’ll use her plastic surgeon and I’m going to do fitness videos and I’m going to be just like Tamra,’” Tamra joked.
Jennifer adds, “If Tamra were to be making a voodoo doll of me, it would be, like, ‘My Hair’s longer. Jen’s ugly. Jen’s fat.’”
While Tamra and Jennifer may not be ready to make peace during their New Orleans adventures, another duo may have other plans.
“I will tell you earlier today that Shannon and Tamra basically made up,” Emily, 49, tells her costars. “I sat in between them. They’re not going to be best friends and braid each other’s hair and spend the night in each other’s rooms, but I think it was a good step forward. That’s where we’re at.”
While Jennifer is supportive of her fellow cast members making peace, she can’t help but wonder what’s in the New Orleans air?
“Listen, I want Shannon to do whatever she needs to do with Tamra,” she says. “But Shannon, who’s rolling on who?”

According to another preview, this week’s episode will also feature Tamra leaving the cast trip early for reasons yet to be revealed.
“I was kind of surprised that she just released it out to the world like that because it seemed very definitive, which I didn’t think she would do,” Gina exclusively shared with Us on August 5. “But also, Tamra really was having a rough year. I’ve never seen her like this before. I just kept saying, ‘Tamra’s being weird, Tamra’s being weird.’”
Watch all the drama unfold when The Real Housewives of Orange County airs on Bravo Thursdays at 8 p.m. ET. Stream old episodes anytime on Peacock.
