Star has a new interview with Cedric, Lisa’s houseguest on Real Housewives of Beverly Hills who was kicked out of her house last season and caused a lot of drama. It’s a given that this guy lies and is not to be trusted, but he does reveal a few things that ring true to me. He claims that he was never old friends with Brandi, as she claimed earlier this year, and that producers told him to say that so that he could remain on the show. He also says that he had moved out of Lisa’s house “months before” she had a role on the show and that he was told to move back in. Plus, he claims he was invited to the party at Lisa’s that will be shown on the finale, also in order to create drama.

False: Cedric wasn’t invited to the party on the finale.
Producers did invite Cedric Martinez to the grand-opening party at Sur Restaurant & Bar that will appear on the season finale. But according to Cedric, after filming his arrival, “Lisa confronted me with some of the worst acting you’ll ever see on television. She claimed I wasn’t invited and told me to leave. It sums up all the phoniness and manufactured drama on the show.”

False: Kim only struggles with alcohol addition.
That’s the least of Kim Richards’ problems, says Cedric. “The truth is much darker,” he says. “I’m thankful Kim is now in rehab, hopefully getting some professional help.”

False: Cedric and Brandi were longtime pals.
Cedric and new cast member Brandi Glanville met this year at a lunch organized by producers, not during their modeling days in Europe a decade ago. “It was a manufactured friendship to keep me on the show,” Cedric tells Star.

False: Lisa and Ken have a solid marriage.
Despite their united front on the show… Lisa is “mortified and embarrassed” by her husband, Ken. “Over the past few years, I witnessed a marriage in crisis,” says Cedric. “I’m betting Lisa will dump poor old Ken as soon as RHOBH completes its run!”

False: Lisa likes Adrienne.
Lisa hates neighbor and costar Adrienne Maloof-Nassif, says Cedric. “She feels Adrienne is not worthy of being on the show.”

False: Cedric was living with Lisa when the series started.
“I moved out months before she landed the role,” he says. Producers convinced him to move back in, the former housemate said.

So is Cedric just revising history so he sounds like the wronged party? I wouldn’t be surprised. He’s a con artist and it was obvious that he made up that whole Les Miserables backstory. (Although he denies this and said that producers deliberately tried to discredit him.) He’s shown that he’s lazy, petty and a freeloader, although it’s hard to figure out what’s exaggerated by editing for effect.

I bet some of this is true, and that producers told him to come to the party so that they could film him arguing with Lisa. It’s even possible that producers asked him to move back into Lisa’s house for season one so that they could film him getting kicked out again. He doesn’t elaborate there, though, and it would be easy enough for him to just make these claims. I do believe that he got into a legitimate beef with Lisa and Ken and that he scammed and hurt Ken especially. Ken isn’t that good of an actor. Lisa is, though. That lady is a piece of work, like just about everyone else on the show.

In related RHOBH news, Kim Richards was said to be out of rehab, but various outlets changed that story and Radar claims in an update that she’s still there. I bet she wanted to bolt and producers made her stay. Kim was so visibly wasted on that show and only Brandi and Adrienne’s husband seemed to even notice.

You can’t make up these weird connections between random fauxlebrities. Yesterday Kaiser ran some photos of Brandi Glanville, Eddie Cibrian’s very publicly wronged ex, hanging all over Cedric, the freeloader from Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. Kaiser doesn’t watch RHOBH so while she mentioned that Cedric was on that show she was more concerned with the romance that the photo agency was trying to make happen. I just checked and these photos are carried by more than one agency, so obviously someone tipped off the paps that Brandi and Cedric would be hanging out the day after the big RHOBH reunion special aired.

Brandi has responded to requests to comment and she said that she and Cedric go way back to when they were both modeling in Europe or something, that he’s indeed gay, and that she’s thinking of hiring him to watch her boys twice a week. Given all we learned about this creep on RHOBH, and the way he handled the break with his benefactor Lisa, I think it’s safe to say that’s a pretty dumb move on Brandi’s part:

“He’s my gay best friend! I’ve known him for 16 years. We modeled together back in Milan and Paris and London back in the day,” she tells E! News.

And while you may see Cedric at Brandi’s place in the future, it’s not because they’re hooking up or he’s moving in with her like he did with Lisa.

Brandi has hired him to babysit for her sons occasionally.

“They boys love him,” she tells E! News. “He’s going to be my manny for two days a week. He’s a great guy.”

A source says Glanville is actually currently dating an actor from a cable TV series. Just not Cedric.

Maybe that’s not a dumb move for Brandi, though. Maybe she knows that where Cedric goes, the Bravo TV cameras could follow, like vultures circling roadkill. Cedric is a scam artist, but he gets attention and Brandi might be hoping for some kind of guest spot on Real Housewives. She would make a great addition to the cast. She likes her cocktails, she bears a resemblance to the existing women thanks to the miracles of modern injectables, and she’s involved in a messy custody battle with a deadbeat ex who has taken up with an oversharing harpy who is trying to turn herself into Brandi’s clone. Bring her on!

Meanwhile US Weekly has more on the threats that Cedric made to Lisa and her husband when he left his posh life at their mansion. Lisa’s husband Ken Todd says that Cedric threatened him with violence. He claims that Cedric told him “The last time I was this angry, I stabbed my father.” Only according to the Les Miserables story that Cedric told Lisa and Kyle on the show, his mom was a homeless prostitute in Paris and he never knew his father. It turns out that he has some kind of family, including sisters. This is not someone I would trust to watch my kids.

These are new, hilarious photos of Brandi Glanville with her new “boyfriend,” a “makeup artist” named Cedric Martinez. Yes, I’m calling him a “boyfriend” because the guy is beeping hard on my gaydar, and that was before I even looked him up. Apparently, he’s super-gay, meaning he once dated… Lance Bass! Oh, and he’s Real Housewives of Beverly Hills‘ Lisa Vanderpump’s “permanent houseguest”. So… gay. But that isn’t stopping the photo agencies from trying to make this junk happen, though. Fame Pictures calls him Brandi’s “shy new boyfriend” and describes this outing as a “lunch date”. WAIT… “shy”? Can we really describe someone wearing that kind of titty man-blouse as “shy”?

But wait… why is trying to get Brandi to clutch his dong for the cameras?!? Maybe he’s bisexual. Maybe he’s not so gay after three “lunch martoonis”. Maybe… I’ve got nothing.

OH GOD, he has a Twitter page too!!! So many LOLs this morning.
