Tree Joodice’s Bravo blog… here.
“I’m not a perfect friend or a perfect person and I’ve never claimed to be. I definitely do react to people coming after me and my family and now my livelihood, but it does take me a long time to get there. I let a lot slide off my back, including a whole season of insults from Caroline and her crew. But I’m proud to say I don’t attack. I don’t go looking for trouble with anyone, not Danielle, not Kim G., not the Manzos, not anyone. I don’t plant fake stories, I don’t bully, I don’t try and get people to gang up on someone. It’s just not my style. I’m too busy living my life, moving forward, and appreciating my gorgeous family.” NOTE: Does Tree really expect anyone to believe her BS???
Melissa Gorga’s Bravo blog… here. MeGo really has nothing to say… six pages of nothing that you haven’t already heard.
Jay Mohr’s blog… here.
“How amazing is it that with four minutes left to go in the season, Teresa swoops in and snatches the title of villain? I was totally surprised. In her final interview, Teresa says, “Everyone thinks how funny I am, like I’m Lucille Ball.” No one, NO ONE thinks you are like Lucille Ball. The season has finally ended and you have shown the viewers that you are a wrecking ball.”
Jax Laurita’s blog… here. Jax had plenty to say via twitter… but it’s all sunshine and puppy dogs on her blog…
“I have noticed this season that Teresa’s outfits are getting brighter and shinier. I think she may be trying very hard to stand out, as if she doesn’t already! I guess maybe she feels the competition is getting stronger. Who knows? Teresa always strives to be the shiniest star. I thought it was funny when Greg said Teresa looked like an Oscar in her gold bathing suit. She did, a fabulous one.”
Funny how Jax never mentions the fight that broke out….
Do you think bravo would even allow that?
Or the judge in the case? Its not gonna go away so once its resolved SOMEONE will talk. And at that time who better to spill the beans than the unemployed Jax.
Welp she can join Bethenny Frankle(sp) on the unemployment line-

Wait. Is Jay Mohr kidding that he “was totally surprised” became the villian? Either he’s being sarcastic (unlikely) or he’s an utter idiot cause the producers gave Tree the villian-edit all season. Not that it’s hard to cast her as the villian but they’ve really shown her in her worst light.
Not only has Jay Mohr himself jumped the shark – he jumped it, circled back to jump it again then put the shark on his back and ran around the parking lot. His kiss-assery should end.
I think Jac is the villain next season…she messed up real bad with Bravo.
Yep. notAshlee was right on about her being all up in the dramz… Pathetic
It’s hard not to notice (especially in that last scene between her and Teresa) the way Jacqueline, when talking to either Ashlee or Teresa, talks around the issue, instead of addressing the problem head on. That was as assertive as she’s ever been with Teresa, and Teresa blew her off anyway, but it’s always,”Well, maybe you could….” or “I think maybe….” The same with Ashlee.
Teenage girls are awful to deal with and poor Jac has Ashley and Teresa to deal with. Which one ks worse? Tre has had a lot of practice.
Teresea has had alot of practice with what? She very rarely watches her own kids, that what she has her in laws and her mom and dad for. She is hardly ever seen with her kids, and when she is she isnt doing anything but talking around them, things they shouldnt know ie gia. As far as ashley is concerned, she likes to call her mom a bitch, Jac should throw her out. She doesnt work, and parties all night and sleeps all day. Ashley is disrespectful and needs to be gone off the show and out of Jacquilines life. She raises her already.
I leave my son with my parents a lot…what’s wrong with that? Better than a babysitter or nanny that doesn’t show love like a grandparent does. I never take my son with me on errands.
I found the finale a huge disappointment. I went into this season expecting to “hate” Melissa and Kathy and while I find Melissa to be a bit of a fake I actually like Kathy. Teresa definitely showed her true colors this season and I liked her the first season and in the second season she definitely started to show her bitchy side her and there but nothing like this season. She over exaggerated alot of things and she is so called trying to fix things with her brother and her husband is over there running his mouth. A decent husband no matter how he may feel about his wife’s family would shut his mouth and support his wife in trying to fix the problems with her brother. I am anxious to see though when the next season will start because I am just dying to see how it all goes down and its looking like Jacqueline is done with RHONJ after this upcoming season is sad because I genuinely like her and the crap she is going through with her daughter I think alot of us with teenagers that age can relate, they can be snotty sarcastic lil bastards when they wanna be and its hard to figure what the hell to do with them. I will be waiting anxiously for the announcement of the next season. DVR is of course set for all the housewives shows but this one I am waiting for…patiently…well a bit lol and Jay Mohr? I loved his blogs at the beginning but his last couple have been kinda ho hum boring. I liked them better when he injected humor into various situations and holy lord I just realized I wrote a novel! LOL OK I am done…for now
I honestly think someone else besides Jax wrote that blog.

Jacqueline Laurita LOVE this!! Thank u! “@iamAlexisLeigh: Gorg!@MTCPhotography:I thought the two of you would like this
Looks like maybe Lauren is losing weight. Her cheeks and chin are looking more defined.
Lauren looks way thinner.
portion control?
Yeah. Portion control. :p
She is on the same “diet” as Caroline and Albert! LOL!
Teresa is hilarious!!! “I don’t go looking for trouble with anyone, not Danielle…… so funny!! I am sorry, but that is exactly what she was looking for when she went to say “hello” to her after the fashion show (in season 2). I am not a fan of Danielle, but Teresa knew what she was doing.
She is so fake and it is about time the others are seeing past her garbage.
Teresea is the new Danielle. A bitch with a horrible mouth and no respect or loyalty. I wish she would leave the show like danielle did and ashley should.
Just wanted you all to note that the new New Jersey reunion preview, Caroline finally admits having problems with Dina (hence why they don’t follow each other on twitter. And who does she blame? Teresa. Teresa says, “No wonder Dina doesn’t wanna talk to you”, and when Caroline is asked why, she turns to Teresa and says, “Im looking at you”, Teresa claims however, that Caroline backstabbed Dina!!! There you have it folks, after speculation, it is true that Dina and Caroline are no longer in speaking terms, or not how they use to be at least.
No way. If Tree can come between two sisters, then something was already damaged in that relationship. But I’m disappointed that Tree went there, y’know?
Depends on when she “went there” before or after Don “went there” with Tree over her little bro.
I know, but she still put herself down on Don’s level a bit. Ideally, I’d rather she didn’t, but I understand why she did- no matter when it came up.
I wonder if we will find out the reason why.
WARNING, this should be treated as speculation!
I have a 5% reliable “source”. It’s third party from a co-worker, but she heard from someone who IS reliable that it probably has nothing really to do with the show, but that Caroline has failed to support Dina in her marriage, i.e. whenever Dina and her husband have a row, Caroline always sides with Dina’s husband. It didn’t sound big enough to me to be the whole truth, but supposedly it’s an on going issue and has caused estrangement before in the past. But again, not a first account. And I don’t have any more tea to spill so don’t ask! (Other than supposedly Dina is very nice and very rich.)
That would make perfect sense.
Well I mean its kind of expected that Teresa would “go there”, she’s always been balls to the wall and will pull out all her guns to defend herself. Regardless of who brought it up, it is something we had all been wondering and glad its finally out in the open. But I’m glad to see Caroline finally speak up. The entire season, you can tell that she hasn’t been too fond of Tree, but she just kept quiet, until the recent events of season 4 have made her explode. I admire Tree’s sense of being honest, but sometimes brutally honest where it passes the mean line. There must be a reason why no one on the cast speaks to her anymore. Sometimes she just doesn’t get it. And although, Don Caro has than ever come across as a know it all, one thing we know is that she is deeply loyal and protective over her family, its sad to see that she is feuding with Dina. They should make that one of the new plot lines in season 4, then that would totally make her the new Teresa. Two head honcho’s with family feuds.
Well said. But I give Tree points for the restraint she must have used while watching from the side lines as Caroline lectures her on mending relationships with family. I hate to sound like Kelly…but how inauthentic!
Oh for the love of puppies or something, watch the preview you saw again. Teresa did not go there about Dina. Caroline brought it up!
This blog is the best I’ve found (first comment but been reading a while here) for housewives news and great sleuthing, truth etc. So I can’t understand why SH seems a bit behind and adamantly on the Teresa hate train. The Teresa bashing needs to be measured if you want to be fair and truthful. If you don’t care about that, then I’ll read elsewhere. Read Television without Pity board for RHONJ for details, as well as this blog. Between the two of them – here and TWOP – is the only way to get all the information.
Seriously, great blog, great writing. I would like to see some fairness and balance though. Overall, Congratulations! This does seem to be best housewives blog I could find.
A lot of people are Teresa bashing right now but things can always change. Look at Camille from BH. Last year she was labeled “most hated” and now she seems to be well received. This year, I’ve liked Teresa for the most part and understand that she is under a lot of stress and frustration. But last year, I didn’t care much for her and her attack on Danielle. I guess I just don’t like to watch people getting kicked when their down. Last year it was Danielle, this year it is Teresa.
Same here. And a lot is Teresa de facto. As in, Teresa…for lack of a better housewife …or Teresa over MeGo. I find MeGo and Caroline insufferable so I tend to think anyone that tolerates them in large doses is deserving of a sainthood.
Danielle was a prostitution whore tho. Engaged 19 times.
Isn’t TWOP owned by Bravo?
Yes.
Yeah, I won’t be wasting my tme then.
I dont undrerstand why you think SH seems a bit behind and on a Teresa hate train? SH is always fair ( giving) her props. and balance to ALL housewives. This is the best HW site on the internet… just saying
Because of this at top of the post :- “NOTE: Does Tree really expect anyone to believe her BS???” Teresa isn’t perfect but the amount of hate unfairly leveled at her from all the other cast and public is unjustified. Someone needs to take the time to report balanced and fairly, not make short judgment damaging statements like that.
TWOP is owned by Bravo but not controlled by Bravo. Discussions there are massive, investigative and ahead of the ball. I thought if that resource was tapped the reality and truth of ALL of them could be put together. No other blog has done this effectively. i thought SH might be interested. You can read it without registering. It’s worth it. As a viewer, sorting out the Bravo b.s. vs. truth is hard.
abc: SH is well aware of TWOP… SH is cited there… a lot. TWOP serves more as a message board; SH does not. While I can understand your enthusiasm for TWOP, the comparison between SH and TWOP is moot… they are two completely different types of sites. TFC!! SH
SH not the best site for HW online but it is the best blog. The best site(s) are SH, TWOP, cast twitter accounts, insider twitter accounts, and now all the HW’s who have private blogs outside of Bravo.
If SH could centralize this, this blog would truly be the one place to go for all of it. It’s amazing how udpated SH is daily. But still, balanced, facts, fair, that’s what I’m looking for. Nobody is writing that in one place but SH comes closest. Now I have a higher expectation for SH as a result
Got spoiled I guess.
So mine TWOP for details to fill things in and keep it fair and balanced. That’s all I was suggesting. Honestly, I’d give anything to have just ONE place to get all the info instead of having to hunt all over to piece things together and parse b.s. from quality.
abc: Thanks for the uh, compliments… I think. They’re all backhanded, but I think they’re still compliments. Hmmmm…. SH
I believe it was a compliment. Having said that, I hope you don’t change a thing. I like the (not so) subtle sarcasms from both the posts and the comments. I think all of the housewives/sig others deserve ridicule every now and then. And the gossip is “jooocy”
does twop have the other housewives as well?
What is TWOP?
Bored @ Work, TWOP is TelevisionWithoutPity.com
Caro and Tree were bound to part ways. First, it wasnt just the table flipping… All danielle said was, “pay attention, puhlease.” Bc, well, tree wasnt following the bouncy red ball. She took a good 4 seconds to process it.. “was it an insult? Is she saying im slow? Am i? AM I?!?” And then she got all angry-commercial-gorilla on danielle. Season 2, samsies. Season 3, the entire season she was like a schitzo on crack… She needs anger management.
and/or Hooked on Phonics
Romo, something more remedial than that. I mean, how do u say, “ingredientsezeses” and not HEAR a problem. Did u see the lady at the table elbow the other lady?! Everyone was laughing AT her. PS who believes shes able to blog and book without these errors?
I know what you mean… she honestly needs alot of help and in no way is she able to write blogs and or a book without help! Remember when she had to write a note to her brother Joey and went over to Jax house & it took her ??? hours to write it…hmmmm?
Haha,ames & Romo, both are REALLY true!
I find it funny that all of them were talking crud about Teresa calling herself Lucille Ball in her book, however it was Don Caro that called her that back in 2009! Go check her blog here http://www.bravotv.com/the-real-housewives-of-new-jersey/blogs/caroline-manzo/a-whole-lot-of-crazy
She said “Teresa, Joe, and the girls are hilarious. I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again…she is the modern day Lucille Ball! Where there is Teresa, there is laughter. She is a tremendous mom, wife, and friend…LOVE, LOVE, LOVE, mwah, mwah, mwah!”
Bravo, you’re really slipping on creating drama. Might want to have your bases covered next time before you let another little crack shine light on your fake scripted show!
But, Don Caro was NEVER Teresa’s friend so she would never have said Teresa is a tremendous mom, wife and friend. Somebody must have hacked into the old blogs.
P.S. If you tweet or twit or whatever that is called, you should send that quote to Don Caro. ha ha
I do tweet but that twit Don Caro isn’t worth my time to find her on Twitter and send it to her.
Ooh good idea! Where are the willing twitter peeps?!? Lol
U tell her, NotTheMomma!
I still think Teresa wants to be the center of attention; rumors from day one she spit nails when Melissa got on the show and you can tell all season; she’s mad, angry and jealous that the spot light isn’t always on her. She starts trouble; and has no consideration for others; she’s late to everything; she’s right everyone else is wrong. Enought already with this one. No class what so ever!
PA – they ALL want to be center of attention. They would not be on the show if they did not want the spotlight.
This has nothing to do with the spotlight. Melissa was unable to get on the show for 3 years, then she promises Bravo she will destroy Teresa, if they cast her. Wouldn’t you be pissed? What if someone that hated you got a job where you worked and went around talking about you at the work place? Imagine on national TV? Did Joe and Melissa think how their 4 nieces? It’ obvious Melissa only cares are her side of the family.
Shoot i would hate that bitch for life. I would even physically fight with them. NOBODY goes into my territory, not like that. I think Teresa thought that the show was her territory, and that Melissa should have been in American Idol/ X-Factor. I mean Housewives as yet to produce a great artist, sorry Kandi.
Kandi had signed sealed and delivered LONG before HW. She was and is doing well without them in that area. Not saying she’s rolling in it, but she’s not a one hit made for tv wonder.
Ms SH, What has your NJ source told you about JoGo’s kid with an African American chica?
um yeah Three kids to be exact ….Antonia, Giovanni and the other one.
That was a rumor, u! Mel is 100% Italian! U don’t want Greggy coming after u… Lol
oops. I better watch me back then huh? cant have that big beautiful giant gay all up my rear end over his Melissa. tee hee I take it back I take it back
Does it matter if she is mixed? I dont see what the big deal is
Someone should tell Tree that we’ll believe she “don’t go looking for trouble with anyone” when she stops hanging out around the bathroom at the Posche Fashion Show.
She doesnt look for trouble, she just waits for it outside of the bathroom. Its not Teresa’s fault people set her off, dont they know asking her to pay attention is a big no-no? Is there any chance Teresa is acting for the cameras and isnt as unbalanced as she comes off? I refuse to believe a sane woman would get as crazed as she does over the simplest of things
I think the producers told Teresa to go up to Danielle. You can’t have a show without some interaction between the characters. What’s the use of Danielle on the show if there is no show-down?
and it was JoGo that called HER garbage at the Christening. Alls Tree did was say congratulations, on camera, for the second time… lol
Teresa, you can’t rewrite history. I think Teresa’s biggest problem is jealousy. She just can’t bring herself to be happy for other people’s success. That is when we see the ugly side of her. Well that and she always has to be the center of attention.
And she lives in a constant state of denial…
Tree doesn’t get it and she doesn’t listen to anyone when there (family,friends) trying to make a point or explain something to her about what she’s done, she’s ready to defend herself right away without listening or processing anything in that little head of hers.there’s no reasoning with her at all….goes one ear and out the other.
I just finished watching the end of the second half of the reunion show. I just dont see it. It should have been called the Teresea Show. It is my OPINION that she thinks that she is better than any of the other housewives. Everytime she was called out on something, she lies or blames it on someone else, like her husband. She should get over herself, stop pimping out her daughter, and realize that she is not the queen of New Jersey. I thought that the reunion show was about what happened during the season. I know that the whole season was not about her family fued.
