They hadn't been married for nearly 30 years, but Kim Richards and Monty Brinson stayed close friends until his death in January after a long battle with lung cancer, and the reality star is still coping with her loss.

"I miss him a lot," Richards tells People exclusively in this week's issue. "He was my best friend. I confided in him. He knew everything."

Nearly a year has passed since Kim Richards was arrested for public intoxication and subsequently entered rehab for the second time in four years. Now sober again, the star of Lifetime's The Mother/Daughter Experiment: Celebrity Edition says this time her sobriety feels different, thanks in part to the loyal support of her four children.

Stevie Ryan stops by the What's Trending studio to chat with Shira Lazar and Ethan Newberry about her VH1 series, "Stevie TV," personal inspirations, and best tips for twerking!

Now that season 2 of "Stevie TV" is well under way, Ryan is busy promoting the show, but she admits, "I literally go crazy," during the hiatus between seasons of her shows.

"I'm still winging it," she says of her hilarious impressions. "But this season, I think we have a lot more original characters and just original sketches."

"Some of them I like to see after and some of them I like to be in that moment," she adds. For instance, Justin Bieber is fun to play "because I can hook up with guys, girls, whoever I want pretty much." But if she's impersonating someone like Kim Richards, "everyone's terrified of me and doesn't want to talk to me."

In terms of comedy inspirations,...

Cinderella as a lush? A gay Prince Charming? A broke Jasmine having sex with... a parrot? "Saturday Night Live" skewered every cliche we've come to know in "The Real Housewives" franchise in its parody sketch, "The Real Housewives of Disney." The verdict? If the "SNL" writers responsible for this sketch ever need work, we think they'd do a bang-up job at Bravo. Though Wiig made the biggest splash as a drunken and debauched Cinderella (read: Kim Richards from the Beverly Hills part of the franchise), Lohan acquitted herself admirably as a judgmental Rapunzel. She also gets one killer punchline which you have to watch to appreciate (it involves a tiny hat). Kudos to...

Lindsay Lohan's much anticipated hosting gig on "Saturday Night Live" was last night, and while the general consensus is that she wasn't great, she did have one memorable sketch.The actress teamed up with the female "SNL" cast members to mock Bravo's "Real Housewives" franchise (Bravo is a subsidiary of NBC).Of course, there was a hilarious twist -- the "SNL" housewives were all based off Disney princesses, including Belle from "Beauty and the Beast" and Jasmine from "Aladdin." Lindsay played Rapunzel, declaring in the opening credits, "I'm out of the tower and into the spotlight!" Check out the hilarious "Real Housewives of Disney" below (warning: some strong language):The long-haired heroine was perfect for Lindsay, whose known for her blonde hair extensions. But it was Kristin Wiig's boozy, Kim Richards-inspired Cinderella that made us laugh in the pre-taped skit.Lindsay didn't fare as well during the actual live taping.
