Real Housewives of New Jersey stars Melissa Gorga and her husband Joe appeared on Bethenny this week to promote her marriage advice book Love Italian Style, where Joe continued to say really gross stuff about sex and consent.
A contract for non-cast members appearing on The Real Housewives of New Jersey provides some insight into how your reality TV sausage is made. The terms of the agreement flat out state that the producers reserve the right to not only "fictionalize" footage but also subject those who sign on to "public ridicule,…
Real Housewives of New Jersey star Melissa Gorga has written an advice book, Love Italian Style, for people who want a marriage as hot and happy as the one she has with her husband Joe. Her entire ethos on the subject boils down to this sentence: "Husbands want their wives to submit; wives want our husbands to…
In "prostitution whore" news: Danielle Staub, infamous former cast member of The Real Housewives of New Jersey, will be sitting down with Andy Cohen for a one-on-one interview on Watch What Happens Live on September 8. Always engage…and then suggest.
At this point, we're used to seeing various Real Housewives in financial peril, but the 39-count indictment of federal fraud and tax charges that Teresa and Joe Giudice are facing is some next-level courtroom drama shit. According to legal experts, they will both serve time in a federal prison.
Real Housewives of New Jersey's Teresa Giudice and her husband Joe were indicted on fraud and tax charges today by a federal grand jury. There are 39-counts against them, which include "conspiracy to commit mail and wire fraud, bank fraud, making false statements on loan applications and bankruptcy fraud."
What started as a supposed revelation of one New Jersey Housewife's alleged stripper past has turned into a larger scandal, with the rest of the cast accusing Teresa Giudice of setting her up. Of course it was a setup. They're on reality TV. But why aren't they pointing their fingers at the show's producers, who…
Yesterday at Bravo's upfronts, the network introduced the three newest housewives from NYC—replacing the four that were unceremoniously fired last year—and rolled out a very enticing teaser of the city's fifth season, which premieres June 4. In it, we meet the three newest gals: One is a princess, one is a business…
I guess I'll just go head and be the asshole and criticize a 9-year-old girl's overt cry for help, but seriously, Gia's song for her mom and Zio Joe was bad on so many levels. First of all, how wildly inappropriate is it that this kid is even aware of any discord in the family, let alone so emotionally affected by…
On last night's episode, the Giudices met with their lawyer to go over what Teresa is allowed to publicly say about the couple's many lawsuits and alleged bankruptcy fraud. Although, considering that she thinks that nor'easters are called Norwegians, the meeting could prove pointless when she actually does open her…
For the past few seasons, the foibles of Jacqueline's troubled daughter Ashley have vacillated between hilarious and infuriating. The 20-year-old is bristling with entitlement and seems completely confused about the way the real world works, and all of this has provided for some laughable quotes:
Real Housewives of New Jersey's Melissa and Joe Gorga were guests on Watch What Happens Live last night where Joe—Teresa Giudice's brother—was asked a question about a comment made by his cousin's husband, Richie, a man of Lebanese descent. Joe said, "Let me tell you about Rich. He's part Ar-Qaeda [sic]." He went on…
It would've been impossible to film this season of New Jersey Housewives without, at the very least, touching upon the Giudices varied legal and financial issues, if not making them a key plot point. On last night's episode, Teresa addressed their money problems during a picnic dinner on her living room floor,…
In this week's compilation of pop culture crap, Paris Hilton is worried about camel toe, bottled water can make you bisexual, and Khloe Kardashian plays better with black balls.
If you haven't been watching , you've been missing the really important things she's been saying. Jeremy Jackson used to be the…
You know, Chris Laurita, Jacqueline's husband, also has a wife and a sister (at one point, two sisters) on The Real Housewives of New Jersey, but he doesn't sit down and do interviews, and he seems to stay out of everybody's bullshit unless he's actually trying to mediate a fight between his stepdaughter and his…
Perhaps they are targeted because of their newfound fame, or because they're just so fabulous that bitches are just jealous. But in reviewing all of the lawsuits—over 60 of them!—against several cast members of The Real Housewives franchise, a common theme seems to be that these people simply don't like to pay their…
The Real Housewives of New Jersey star is being sued over a drunken bar fight that occurred while filming the reality show on location in the Dominican Republic in February. In a lawsuit filed in Manhattan Supreme Court Teresa is accused of instigating a violent altercation after spraying champagne around the bar of…
Was anyone else totally uncomfortable with Joe Gorga's expressions of his sexuality on last night's episode? It's unclear if the no-sex-for-four-days subplot was the real deal or simply a machination on the part of the couple to make them appear endearing, but either way, it came off as crass and inappropriate…
