I'm not mad at you, Renee. You're a good friend and did the right thing. I'm just not ready to talk right now. I hope you understand.

To: Mark Finlay

Subject: im sorry!

From: Renee Greene – August 6, 2013 – 9:10 AM

To: Shelley Manning

Subject: Finlay update

He's miserable. And I'm miserable. And not just because I haven't spoken to you in so long. Too busy with your new beau or Amber to email or call? At least I get to see you soon.

From: Shelley Manning – August 6, 2013 – 9:11 AM

To: Renee Greene

Subject: Re: Finlay update

So, you think Finlay's mad at you?

From: Renee Greene – August 6, 2013 – 9:12 AM

To: Shelley Manning

Subject: Re: Finlay update

Of course I do! He says no but we've barely spoken these past 10 days.

From: Shelley Manning – August 6, 2013 – 9:15 AM

To: Renee Greene

Subject: Re: Finlay update

Renee, you've got to give the guy a break. He just found out that his fiancé cheated on him….and in a really public way.

From: Renee Greene – August 6, 2013 – 9:18 AM

To: Shelley Manning

Subject: Re: Finlay update

I know. But why, WHY, did I have to be the one to see that photo in US Weekly? Why, WHY, did I have to be the one to tell him that Cassidy was caught kissing another man on set? Why? WHY?

From: Shelley Manning – August 6, 2013 – 9:19 AM

To: Renee Greene

Subject: Re: Finlay update

That'll teach you to get a pedicure.

From: Renee Greene – August 6, 2013 – 9:21 AM

To: Shelley Manning

Subject: Re: Finlay update

It really will. Every time I look at my toes, I feel pangs of guilt.

From: Shelley Manning – August 6, 2013 – 9:23 AM

To: Renee Greene

Subject: Re: Finlay update

Seriously, Renee, it's not your fault. Isn't it better for him to find out now that Cassidy is a lying, cheating whore rather than when they are married?

From: Renee Greene – August 6, 2013 – 9:24 AM

To: Shelley Manning

Subject: Re: Finlay update

Whoa! Have a strong feeling about this?

From: Shelley Manning – August 6, 2013 – 9:26 AM

To: Renee Greene

Subject: Re: Finlay update

Absolutely! You mess with the bull and you get the horns. Right? Just bad timing though.

From: Renee Greene – August 6, 2013 – 9:29 AM

To: Shelley Manning

Subject: Re: Finlay update

That's an understatement. A few months before his wedding and my best friend finds out - from me, no less - that he's being cuckolded.

From: Shelley Manning – August 6, 2013 – 9:31 AM

To: Renee Greene

Subject: Re: Finlay update

Oh Renee, why do you have to make everything sound so dirty?

From: Renee Greene – August 6, 2013 – 9:34 AM

To: Shelley Manning

Subject: Re: Finlay update

I thought you would like that. But seriously, I just feel awful for Mark and don't know what I can do to make things better. And I know this has forever altered our friendship. He'll never look at me the same way again.

From: Shelley Manning – August 6, 2013 – 9:42 AM

To: Renee Greene

Subject: Re: Finlay update

Sweetie, this is probably the worst thing that has ever happened to him. I know what you are thinking, "Oh, thanks a lot, Shelley. As if I didn't already feel awful enough…"

This isn't about you! It's like he's dealing with a death right now. The death of the woman he loved and thought he knew. He's grieving for the life he thought he was going to have and all of the plans he had made in his head. So give him some time and space. When he's ready for your sympathy, he'll let you know.

From: Renee Greene – August 6, 2013 – 9:43 AM

To: Shelley Manning

Subject: Re: Finlay update

You're right.

From: Shelley Manning – August 6, 2013 – 9:44 AM

To: Renee Greene

Subject: Re: Finlay update

As usual. What about the ring? Did he take the ring back?

From: Renee Greene – August 6, 2013 – 9:45 AM

To: Shelley Manning

Subject: Re: Finlay update

Oh, that's a good question. I didn't even ask about that. I sure hope so.

From: Shelley Manning – August 6, 2013 – 9:45 AM

To: Renee Greene

Subject: Re: Finlay update

Me too!

From: Renee Greene – August 6, 2013 – 9:47 AM

To: Shelley Manning

Subject: Re: Finlay update

Not only is it a gorgeous, expensive ring, but he spent countless hours researching all about diamonds to pick the perfect one.

From: Shelley Manning – August 6, 2013 – 9:48 AM

To: Renee Greene

Subject: Re: Finlay update

Of course he did. How Finlay of him.

From: Renee Greene – August 6, 2013 – 9:52 AM

To: Shelley Manning

Subject: Re: Finlay update

Hey now. The boy likes to be thorough and I think it's lovely that he spent so much time and consideration finding the perfect ring to symbolize their love for each other.

From: Shelley Manning – August 6, 2013 – 9:54 AM

To: Renee Greene

Subject: Re: Finlay update

Perfect until she turned out to be a lying sack of shit.

From: Renee Greene – August 6, 2013 – 9:55 AM

To: Shelley Manning

Subject: Re: Finlay update

Mother bear protects her cubs, doesn't she?

From: Shelley Manning – August 6, 2013 – 10:00 AM

To: Renee Greene

Subject: Re: Finlay update

You bet, Sweetie. I didn't like that twit from day one with her fake Southern charm and toned triceps. You don't want to fuck with my friend unless you want to endure my wrath.

From: Renee Greene – August 6, 2013 – 10:02 AM

To: Shelley Manning

Subject: Re: Finlay update

I'll find out and keep you posted. What else is new with you? I miss talking with you.

From: Shelley Manning – August 6, 2013 – 10:06 AM

To: Renee Greene

Subject: Re: Finlay update

Everything’s fine. Wish I could talk more but I've got to run. I'll see you soon and we'll have plenty of time to catch up. Mwah! Mwah!

I know how you HATE celebrities, so prepare yourselves for another wild but true story from the annals of Renee Greene's surreal life. Our client Halloturn just signed a deal with Natalie Franklin, the R&B singer, to be a spokesperson for their diabetes medication.

It's well known she has type 2 diabetes. Her "people" just sent over her "green room" requirements for an upcoming appearance we are booking for her on the Today Show to talk about diabetes management and childhood obesity.

Read on for true, unedited, unembellished excerpts from her green room needs. "4. Gel pens: one blue, two black, one red 12. Six bottles of Evian chilled and six bottles at room temperature 19. 2 "squeezy" bottles clear honey (not organic) 23. NO WHITE FLOWERS! There shall be NO WHITE FLOWERS!"

She's crazy, no?
