Fake psychic medium Allison Dubois weighs in on Russell Armstrongs suicide


Remember that crazy psychic that got drunk in the “Dinner Party from Hell” episode on Real Housewives of Beverly Hills and ended up fighting with everyone who wasn’t kissing Camille’s ass? Allison Dubois was a close friend of hostess Camille Grammer, and is the “psychic” whom the TV show Medium was based on, only her credentials are either sketchy or nonexistent and she’s a total piece of work. Some of her quotes from that evening include “I can tell you when she will die and what will happen to her family. I love that about me,” and “If any of their children disappeared, they wouldn’t be like ‘You were wrong,’ they’d be like ‘Can you help?‘ F*ck them.”

Anyway, since Allison is someone who makes a profit out of spurious claims to contact the spirit world, she was asked by Entertainment Tonight to comment on Russell’s suicide. She of course said she sensed the desperation in him, and gave a bunch of quotes presuming to know what was going on with his family, but at least she didn’t claim to have a message from him from beyond the grave. The way ET phrases it sounds like she’s claiming to have had contact with him, but in the video it just sounds like she’s speaking of suicide victims in general and doesn’t say she heard from Russell’s spirit.

Although Allison DuBois had only met the women of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills once (apart from close friend Camille Grammer) during what would soon after be dubbed “the dinner party from hell,” the now infamous psychic tells Entertainment Tonight her brief encounter lent DuBois great insight into what may have led to Russell Armstrong’s recent suicide.

Speaking to ET from her home in Arizona via Skype, Allison recounts the night she met the Real Housewives cast, explaining the influence of reality television cameras as a definite factor which would later derail the Armstrong family into an unavoidable tragedy.

“It had to be difficult that all his problems were being made so public,” DuBois says. “It was inevitable that someone was going to almost get, you know, pushed over a line.”

Although admitting she hadn’t yet talked to Taylor since her estranged husband’s death, Allison claims her psychic sense can feel Russell’s spirit communicating to her that he decided to take his life out of “desperation.”

“He was really down on himself and it culminated in his death,” DuBois says. She goes on to explain that his recently departed spirit was telling her that Russell wanted Taylor to meet somebody “more deserving” as a husband and as a father to their daughter Kennedy.

I haven’t mentioned all the other comments on this poor guy’s suicide, but this one cried out for coverage because it’s ridiculous. Given who we’re dealing with it could have been much worse though. I don’t know why I’m surprised when coverage continues as usual when someone dies, but you would think some of these outlets would bring it down a notch out of respect or whatever. Obviously they aren’t doing that and here we have a psychic who was drunk and belligerent on one episode giving her comments on the suicide of a guy who was married to one of the stars. Did she even ever meet him? At least she didn’t claim to have seen it coming.
