NOTE: May as well finish this… Melissa Gorga has submitted her say re the last episode of the Real Housewives of New Jersey. All the Housewives received the Sunday episode on Wednesday. Obviously, Bravo wants to escalate the rift between Tree and MeGo by delaying the publication of their blogs… either Tree or MeGo are always the last to have their BravoBlog up on Bravo.com.
MELISSA GORGA: MeGo says that she doesn’t understand where the “rumors” about her marriage started in the first place… and Tree being a good, supportive sister to JoGo is just an “act.”
BUT FIRST… MeGo is yet ANOTHER Housewife who needs a remedial English language class specializing in the usage of “I” and “ME.” What school let her slide through???
Ugh, I didn’t like watching this week. It was really hard to go back to that place. It puts a knot in my stomach that I can’t explain. As you can see I truly was pushed to my limit and the filter came off. I was trying to put the issues between Teresa and I behind us, as I thought we both agreed to do, but I started to realize and now can definitely say after watching these past few episodes and reading her blogs that’s not at all what Teresa was trying to do.
MeGo says she’s a “VERY PRIVATE PERSON”…
First, where did these rumors about my marriage with Joe start? That’s the million dollar question. When Teresa was hearing these so-called rumors the show had just started airing and I hadn’t even had a performance yet. What’s interesting is she didn’t bring up the fact that it had anything to do with my music until she was continually questioned about her reason for telling Joey these “rumors” in the first place. People weren’t buying her good, supportive sister act.
NOTE: Is Melissa serious when she says she doesn’t know where all the “rumors” about her marriage started??? SH readers know exactly where the rumors started! Right here on SH! Who actually sent the email to SH is still a mystery, but whoever sent the email to SH wanted all to know about Melissa… HERE. Melissa: please send the $1 million directly to SH…
TERESA GIUDICE: Tree says a lot… and a lot just don’t make no sense!!!
So this episode… first let me say, I never ever thought I’d be part of a show that turned into this crazy high school, he-said-she-said drama. When I signed up, it was just supposed to be a fun show with my friends. People didn’t go on TV to fight, but to just give you a peek into their lives. I thought the Housewives shows were amazing because at the time TV was only showing young people, but Housewives showed that women over 30 and 40 could still be sexy and interesting, go after their dreams, build businesses, etc.
Sadly, it’s turned into something else. None of us went on the first seasons of Housewives thinking we could turn it into anything. We were just happy to share our lives and our struggles (remember when Bethenny wasn’t a billionaire and couldn’t pay her bills?). Now people beg to get on so they can cash in. And they do it without caring who they hurt, even family. (Obviously Tree had Melissa in mind when she wrote this!) They do things on purpose just to stir up drama. I am very thankful for the great things that came out of being a Housewife, but of course, I’d trade it all because sometimes the negatives — like friendships falling apart and families broken up — aren’t worth it. But it is what it is, and I have to make the best of it and try and take the high road. And I will keep trying!
Tree last year… on the RHONJ…
I don’t like watching myself from a year ago on Housewives, because I did let some of the drama get to me. It’s hard not to when it seems like everyone around you is doing their best to pick on you, bait you, and try and make you look bad. That’s not what I’m about. You know me — I react but I don’t set out to act out. I don’t plot or try and pretend I’m something I’m not. My family and friends know it too, and they seem to be having a great time trying to get me to “react.” Of course, I’m not perfect, and sometimes they do find just the right thing to get me upset, but I am proud of the fact that I walk away, and I don’t do the same back to them.
To answer all of your questions, I don’t think I’m being ganged up on or bullied. I just think the other cast members know that blowing little things in my life out of proportion and constantly talking about me all day takes the focus off things they don’t like in their own lives. That’s fine. I can take it!
CAROLINE MANZO: DonCaro has plenty to say… and it’s “FEBUS”… especially when it comes to Tree!!!
Clearly my attitude towards Teresa has changed and with good reason. I won’t be a soldier in her army. Again, Jacqueline and I were brought into a situation to “fix” things. I found out very early on this was nothing more than a war tactic on Teresa’s part. Remember, there were never supposed to be sides — Teresa clearly states in this episode that Jacqueline needs to “pick a side.” I ask you this — Why? Why do we have to pick a side? I assessed and made a decision not to enlist. I don’t like war, and if my approach seems less than loyal to some viewers, all I can say is I am what I am and it is what it is. I stand by my decision.
We are all entitled to our own opinion, that’s what makes the world go round, right? Having said that, I can fully respect and understand anyone’s view; whether you love me or hate me, it’s yours to do and think what you wish. For those that understand, thank you, for those who don’t, no hard feelings. NOTE: In other words, FEBUS!!!
KATHY WALIKE: Kathy has a lot to say, but doesn’t say much…
Let’s start with Sibling Rivalry. I have to admit I did feel bad for Lauren when Albie and Chris were joking with her and Vito. I know how older brothers can be and can understand how it feels to look up to them and want their approval. It’s especially difficult when you’re starting a new diet plan and not really feeling like yourself. I know they were just kidding, but Lauren, you were being a great sport about it. I love the way she brushed it off and gave it right back to them. This is the same kind of joking that goes on with Rich and his siblings, but the result is always the same — a lot of love. NOTE: Calling the ‘conversation’ between Lauren, CritterFUR and PrinceAlbie “sibling rivalry” is soft pedaling the reality of what took place. Let’s call it what it IS: MEAN, RUDE and IGNORANT.
JAX LAURITA: Jax says a lot… but it’s all regurgitated crap….BLAH, BLAH, BLAH…
11. Teresa didn’t want anyone to use the word “jail”. She would rather us say “going away” even though she’s OK getting paid to say it in the tabloids. That was the word we kept reading. I guess I didn’t really understand the difference between saying “jail” or “going away” because to me it meant the same thing. I understand it better now after hearing Kathy with her explanation on pride. I’m still not convinced it’s a Jersey thing though.
12.Teresa always told me that people won’t always believe what they read, so it’s OK for her to say it in a tabloid. But if we talk about it on the show, then that makes it real to the viewers. She just wanted it to stay in the tabloids where she could profit from it without having to explain it.
13. Melissa wasn’t sure where to go for Tia’s solstice party, so I told her to meet us at Caroline’s and we could all go together. Teresa knew Melissa was coming with us, because I told her beforehand out of respect. Teresa said that was fine, but I was given specific instructions on what I could say or not say. I liked Melissa and she had never done anything to me personally to make me feel otherwise, but I had no desire to hang out with her without Teresa, because I knew how Teresa felt about her. I kept her at an arm’s length just as she kept me. Melissa respected me as Teresa’s friend, and I respected her as Teresa’s family. NOTE TO JAX: We don’t need a blow-by-blow account of what we all just watched on the RHONJ… you just wrote eight pages of useless words. Thanks for nuthin’!
The Don DID pick a side! She also did not just sit by and be supportive she got into the middle of things and made it WORSE! So childish to bring Melissa to the party to make Teresa feel bad. A 50 year old woman acting like she is in middle school. At the reunion Caro made a comment about something hurtful Teresa said about Joe. Joe looked so upset. She should keep her big nose out of it. Tre and Joe are BOTH wrong, it is between them, it may be too late for them to be a real family again.
I see The Don and Jax are writing their blogs together. Last week the key phrase was “planting the seed” this week I see the new phrase is “a soldier in Tre’s army.” BTW I love that drawing of The Don, totally cracked me up.
Thry are both do stupid.
got that?
Isn’t that funny? They have talking points. I’m pretty sure they have a war room where they plan out their ” Take Down Tree!” operation. But they’re not obsessed with her, no sir!
Look at the part of Jax’s blog that in her stupidity and self-righetousness, she thought would blow right over our heads. She says that before Teresa made her idiotic comment to Joey about Melissa possibly cheating on him one day, Joey texted Joe Guidice and said that if he didn’t stop bothering him he would tell Teresa that Joe was cheating on her. He didn’t mean for Teresa to see the text, he would NEVER hurt his sister, he was just blackmailing Joe with the information instead of protecting his sister. The language that Jacqueline uses when talking about how horrible Teresa is is in stark contrast to how she describes what Joey did.
“My feeling is that Teresa was upset with her brother’s text to her husband, that she had unfortunately and accidentally saw, which threatened Joe that if he didn’t stop threatening him, he
would tell Teresa that he had cheated on her. This was a fight that was supposed to stay between the men and wasn’t meant for her eyes. He never intentionally tried to hurt his sister. Joey didn’t go to Teresa and say that to try and cause a problem in their marriage. He was upset with Joe’s actions. It wasn’t a warning of something that may or may not happen. ”
~ Jax’s blog
Why the double standard? Why the hypocrisy? Teresa lashed out in a silly way, but Joey started it. And Teresa is the villain in this story as everybody piles on the hatred and vitriol on Teresa and beats her spirit to a pulp. But of course, she won’t accuse her brother of anything on the show. If Jax hadn’t taken one to many xanax , we would have never known about this text from Joey as a precipatator to Teresa’s remarks to Joey about Melissa. Joey Gorga and Melissa Gorga are the lowest of the low and Caroline is a bag of trash. She doesn’t even pretend to care how she comes off to the fans. #febus. The way Lauren was bullied was not loving, not kind, not fambly caring about each other and teasing Lauren, it was abuse. It was bullying. And it was cruel. And everybody took part in it and laughed AT Lauren not with her.
My disgust knows no bounds. I really don’t think I can stomach this show anymore.
Excellent point Gessie. And what the heck is up with her brother not coming to her with the info. IF (big IF) he believed it(cheating) was happening then his loyalty lied with his sister. If my siblings partner was cheating on them I would never blackmail or threaten the outsider. There would be no question about me “keepin my mouth shut” to protect my sibling’s mate. It just doesn’t seem loyal at all to me. That’s your BLOOD Joe. Shame on you.
True! Joe Gorga doesn’t give a shit about his sister.
Yep. In fact the only one that got a lick in on Juicy was Richie. And if that was my family my cousin would have whispered in his ear “That was for Mp!” right after cold-cocking him in the eyeball. But he would have had to wait in line behind my brothers and my dad.
Did you guys hear Jeff Goldblum make a snide comment about Juicy just before getting on the boat? I can’t remember exactly what he said but it was completely rude and unnecessary. Then the camera pans to Kathy rolling her bugs eyes. I swear, sometimes I get concerned that Kathy’s eyes are going to pop right out the sockets. blleeck!
The comment where he said something to the effect of the boat being repoed while they are out in the water?? Yeah I totally caught that one!!
And stranger than that was I didn’t see his lips moving. Bravo editing at its filthiest.
Yeah, ONCE AGAIN it’s “Do as I say, not as I do” with these hosebeasts. Or rather ” Don’t look at the man behind the curtain!” It’s apparently totally OKAY for Little Joey Gorga to say horrendous things about Tree, her husband and their marriage, but if she says anything back, it’s a NO NO and she’s being mean to poor Mel. Not only was Teresa just defending herself and her marriage while trying to warn JoeGo about something that lets face it, EVERYONE already believes, but SHE INITIALLY KEPT THESE THIS ISSUE PRIVATE. Little Joey Gorga was the one who decided it was going to be a plotline for the show by bringing it up on camera.
I had that feeling too, Tree’s constant need to sheild JoGo from his part in this made her look kooky and Joe only told MeGo what Tree said and not the part right before when he was explaining to her why he thought her husband was cheating. Tree and Joey had a conversation that went something like this:
Tree: “why would you say something like that to my husband, why would you say that he was cheating?”
JoGo:”well, it’s stuff I’ve been hearing lately”
Tree: “well, I heard that your wife would leave you if someone richer came along”
Immature, yes stupid, yes but this makes so much more sense than the half story we were getting last night.
U r so right!
Don Caro the “Popeye”
Why do I get the feeling that these women are just pisteded off that the same mag that pays Tree for interviews doesnt offer them as much or worse yet turns them down flat. They tend to bring up her tabloid paycheck everytime they can.
Yep, they sure do.
Meanwhile Tree cashes them Trump checks ta boot.
ALL of them are insanely jealous of Teresa. That is what this is all about. The Punta Cana incident was just the last straw for Caroline. Caroline was over the top ENRAGED at that reunion. She truly looked crazy. Her sons are adults no one made them get involved in a fight. Caro can’t blame other people for her kid’s mistakes.
True dat. In fact we have actually seen the boys get loaded for bear at party situations. Throwing Kim G out of the Christmas party. If I remember correctly it seemed to me that Albie wanted to get a piece of that lady.
I think you have it backwards TREE is the jealous one can’t you see it she is so jealous of Her sister in law it’s crazy!!!
Your dead on, dead on. And that’s because Teresa is the star and not nobody else. They are jealous of her success and other ventures and it’s driving them nuts.
Madepiley – I know right? Like any of them wouldn’t take the $$ in a HEARTBEAT if it was offered to them.
Thats why they are all so angry she wont talk about her legal problems. They want to be able to sell the information to tabloids or take away her ability to sell the stories by outing all the information on RHNJ for free… Also. we all know you do not speak about legal issues on national tv as it can be seen by future jurors or incriminate the person themself. That is exactly why we havent heard a PEEP about the PC trip… Bravo wont allow a word to be spoken about it because it can be used against them in court!
Exactly. They’re all counting Tre’s $.
There problem is, they were all wSiting for her to fall…. And instead, tree got up, and saved her family on her own, still supporting her husband, loving her kids, and they couldn’t of done that. It’s all JEALOUSLY!
So, I said that I took RHONJ off of my DVR (and I did). Last night, did a little flipping back and forth. Ridiculous. And this was only the 2 scenes that I saw. #1 the sibling banter was so disgusting. And the parents sit back like fools. In fact, didn’t dad even make a comment about when Lauren and boyfriend have kids… WTH! #2 The scene with ‘Rosie’ (come over here, I don’t want to talk in front of others) yet she’s *right there* in view of the tables everyone was seated at. The entire thing was so blatantly orchestrated that Bravo can not even dare call this reality, by any stretch of the imagination. We all know that Rosie was chummy with Cohen for at least some time. It was so instigating and unproductive. Resuming my updates via SH. I’m not wasting my Sunday night TV time on this show again.
Right with you. Deleted Bravo from our channel grid. Poof! it’s gone. No more hw’s, ads or Andy! No one else watches and won’t miss it. And no more PADMA!
If Jax was given a pre-party heads up about not mentioning the word that starts with J and sounds like hail then you can bet your bottom dollar Melissa also got the same edict and she just pissed on it and told Tree it was rainin. I suspect that Auntie Mel brings up the J word every chance she gets at home within earshot of Antonia and then acts all offended if Tree doesn’t just jump at the chance to get their girls together.
Melissa is a bitch.
Disgusting the way the entire family treats Lauren and Vito. One would think they were drug addicts or felons instead of packing a few extra pounds. Oh, the tragedy of having a daughter/sister that isn’t a size zero. What will everyone think?
Yeah and I hate to be mean and talk about looks, but I’m gonna this one time – what about the tragedy of having a fugly brother?? Mean, yes, but he deserves it. Chris Manzo was laughing what is soon to be his ample a*s off during that whole exchange. Laughing and smirking. Like everything he says is comedy gold and he’s so clever. You’re not that funny, buddy. Not funny enough that people will overlook your ugliness inside and out. And if you’re going to dish it out, you ought to be able to take it. Despite all your assertions that the Manzos are just a family of jokesters, something tells me you wouldn’t want to be the center of a firing squad talking about how damn ugly you and your bride to be are. But you don’t ever have to worry about that, do you? Mama Manzo would stop that right away! No one’s going to be mean to her boyz.
I was totally shocked at how nasty they all were to poor Lauren, KNOWING she has issues with her weight. SHOCKING at how Caroline sat there smirking at Albie and Chris. Imagine how they act when the cameras are not rolling??? In the talking head Caro said Lauren is beautiful blah blah blah, then said “so what if she has a big stomach? She is a great kid.” WHAT A BITCH!!! I could not believe it. I would love to be a fly on the wall to see how crazy they act in private. I wonder how Albie would feel if they all sat around making fun of him whe he flunked out of law school? THEN they showed a pic of Albie’s gf the cheerleader to make Lauren feel even more special. Well of course like I predicted, that relationship ended pretty quickly. Lauren is the only normal one. Those boys heads are inflated by the fame. I predict, Lauren will be the most normal, and successful Manzo kid.
You are so right. Don Carlione would never let anyone say boo to her momma’s boys. Christuffer could bloat up to 500 pounds and there would just be more to love. Prince Albie, well he just walks on water. Yet, this woman feels compelled to give advice and there are those dumb enough to listen to her.
Albie flunked out of a tier 3 law school!!! And now, it’s not for having dyslexia or some crap. Plenty of people with learning disabilities overcome the odds. I find it REALLY hard to believe if his “learning disability” was such a struggle, how could he have graduated from Fordham University undergrad? All those philosophy and theology courses have dense texts, too!
Don Caro is a fugly, cruella disgrace. None of her kids have any career or job prospects. blk water is horseshit. no one wants to drink that tar crap. Lauren and Vito are the only ones working as far as I can tell.
What happened to Albie’s boyfriend Gregg Bennett??????
Anyone notice how the Beloved Rosie started the whole thing between Teresa and Melissa at the ” Solstice Party”? She obviously has decided she’s going to be an auxiliary housewife alla Greggy Bennett this season. After Rosie ignited the whole thing, Jacqueline made sure she kept it going. ” So Teresa, you’re upset about what Rosie said about what Mel said. You want me to go over to tell Mel to talk to you? Yes? Yes? Nevermind, I’ll just go over and tell her to come here and start sh*t with you. ” Looking for a story line much Jac?
Thank you, I totally noticed it and was beginning to think that I was the only one!!!! Rosie started the drama by bringing up the whole richer man comment and from there it was handed over to Jacqueline. But for some reason they all said Teresa started it and ruined the party….even though she tried to walk away and leave. Go figure!!
YES!!! Then they all have the nerve to sit back and make comments about how the night was supposed to be positive and now Teresa ruined it. All I saw was a bunch of petty beyotches stir shite up, push buttons & then when Tre went to walk away (the best decision) they followed her and egged it on.
I really don’t know if I am going to be able to watch this whole season. With the exception of Teresa, I can’t stand any of them hoes (including the idiotic Manzoid boys…barffffff)
Those idiotic Manzo boyz have really worn out their welcome in the reality show world. In the beginning, I found them kind of entertaining to watch. Albie was cute and Chris was funny. Plus, back then, they pretty much just stayed in the background and watched what came out of their mouths. They seemed polite and well-raised. But NOW, good god, they’re 3 mini Dons, bullying, bad-mouthing and making fun of Teresa – a woman going through the worst time in her life with 4 kids. It’s also clear they’ve overestimated their appeal to the housewives viewing audience. I think they go to clubs 3-4 nights a week and GIRLS ( 18 to 22 ) out dancing and getting drunk, in JERSEY (sorry )think they’re cute, funny, clever and can do no wrong. To them, they’re semi celebrities, but to us old “housewives” they’ve just become rude, do-nothing, young men who need to grow up and learn some manners. And we’re the ones who watch the show! ( AHEM BRAVO please note )
Twitter, that whole night was CLEARLY planned and choreographed. My guess is it started in a production meeting at BRAVO. The Solstice party was just a new and interesting (?) place for them to film the latest producer-conceived, Jac/Caro/Mel/Kath/And now Rosie-executed ” Lets see if we can get Teresa to blow up, punch someone or have a nervous breakdown!” operation. “This will be great sh*t to film!” Mel, who apparently can’t frickin’ DRIVE herself to the party shows up to Don’s house, Jac of course immediately starts talking about the Dastardly Tree and how mean she is to poor, innocent Mel – the same Tree who they hate and don’t want anything do with, but CAN’T…..STOP….TALKING….ABOUT. Then Don says her lines ” Huh? what? Teresa said something bad to Mel? Do tell!” Mel of course tells ONE TINY, out-of-context part of the story. Don mentions something about shame and bullying er whatever. Then they go to the party and hand off to Rosie ( who ever thought she would get involved in this sh*t? Does she need a paycheck THAT bad to ruin her reputation forever? ) Then Rosie hands off to Jac and Jac pulls Mel in. Then Mel delivers her lines in dramatic fashion. Then Teresa starts yelling, getting defensive and emotional. There! Mission accomplished! You can bet we’re going to see many variations on this scene play out like 20 more times before the season is over.
Oh, I forgot – KATHY. Not much more to say than that. I forgot her, as did everyone else, I’m sure. She better ramp up the Teresa bashing if she hopes to stay on the show!
Tre needs to get LAUREN MAN ZO a copy of Fabulicious Fat and Fit STAT!!!!!
I think the most notable comment of the episode goes to poor, bullied Melissa – ” Would you like to do something? That would go down in history. I’d love it. I’d just stand here.” with a smirk. It shows where her mind is about this whole reality show project. She’s DYING to get Teresa to do or say something really awful, something she can’t take back, something that will embarrass her and something that will make the public turn against her forever. We know your game, Melissa. People aren’t stupid.
I was getting so annoyed when the Don would bring up “bullying.” “Oh she said shut up to you? Bullying.” Please, you are grown women. Everyone has said stupid and childish things to one another and it is not bullying. And how is that any different than what you did to Crazy Danielle two seasons ago? The hypocrisy is driving me crazy. The episode just left me exhausted and annoyed.
I like how it is 4 against 1, but Teresa is the bully.
bravo never posts my comment. am glad i can come to vent.
First caroline need to mind her business and worry more about her kids. I think they are going to be worse than T and poison. Any one remember early on S3 when Lauren was whining because her brothers moved out of the house with a new person. She was worried about losing the attentions of her brothers and even went ahead to attack Gregg if i remember correctly. Caroline need to shut up, put on her big girl panties and wait until her kids find partners. I hope the cameras will be rolling cos I will be ready with my popcorn.
Secondly, did any one notice melissa is envious of T’s friendship and so she wants them. Remember, her comment on the boat about liking Jac and how she thinks jac might be getting the pressures of being T’s friend. So she thinks Jac will feel alot better being her friend. Does she really have any friends in real life. I ask bc she seems desperate to take her SIL friends and will do anything. Why does she always have to run to T’s friends and family to report everything T says. Jac claims in her blog there was an arrangemnt for Mel to go to the party with her and caroline. Since when? why can’t she go by herself or better still drive with kathy or someone else, why does it have to be people who use to close to T.
In this episode I only wished T could express herself alot better but sometimes she seemed to be lost in her own words oand her expressions. But why does family issues always have to be discussed in front of the camera. Rosie started this shit and shld take responsibility for it. Why at a party. She seem to have a better r/ship with T, why not talk to her off camera. I guess Kathy’s trying to make get more airtime like she promised. This is not the best way. I applaud her for handling the kids well at the shores but in this case she was only a catalyst. If i remember T said this convo wt her brother happened months b4 filming. Why is it a focal point this season.
I guess this family have no shame and will do any thing for fame and $$$. I seriously blame People at Bravo for this mess. Why will they want to capitalize on this dysfunctional family for ratings. It is pathetic. What are they trying to prove to us; who is right and who is wrong. Look at all polls for 3 strt weeks. Who’s side are you on? Andy, at this point it doesn’t matter. You all at bravo need to be ashamed of yourselves especially you, Andy. I guess u have some dysfunctions in ur own family as well. Why don’t u film it and let us the viewers choose sides.They never learn a lesson from Russel’s death ,did they? I can’t wait for some one to Slam them with a law suit. I hope the cameras will be rolling as well.
One last thing, thought Melissa and poison had that convo in their closet while the cameras were rolling for the first time like they made us believe in the first episode. How come in this episode she said Joe came home crying after T talked to him. Which one is it? If he did tell u immediately he came home why bring it up months later in front of the Camera demanding public apology. She is only looking for Pity. This family is so sick. I hope T ignores her. I guess my advice is too late cos its already filmed. Did she and her husband ever apologize for calling her garbage right in front of the camera not months b4 filming.
Good question! whereTH are MeGo’s friends? Not her loser sisters and not the friends she’s trying to steal that are Tree’s… her friends that she should have that are just hers. I also would like to know if JoGo ever apologized to Tree for calling her garbage at the Christening. That’s an excellent reunion question! Andy should ask Tree though bc if Melissa is asked; she will say, “I’m sure he did.” or “I don’t know you’ll have to ask Joe becuase I don’t want to speak for my husband.”
haha your right, she WOULD say that! MeGo is about to make me have a nervous brakedown I can’t see how Tree has lasted this long.
I’m confused is this a post from Reality Tea? If so why post it here?
To me Kathy is a useless waste of time. There is nothing about this woman that’s interesting to merit her being on a reality show…let’s not even bring up her Kermit the Frog eyes. Her husband looks greasy. He gives me the creeps.
Since i run with a BUNCH of fighters….I am glad Teresa is labeled as such…love her blog this week.
Teresa can’t put two words together to form a sentence. Someone at BRAVO is writing her blog. And her brother is even dumber and more illiterate.
She has a v. good p.r. team. That was money worth spending.
Perhaps for a few extra dollars the PR rep could have warned her that wanting to ask Kim Z for hair tips is sorty stoopid since… Kim.wears.a.wig. But then again that could have been a strategic answer designed to evoke the most heartfelt “bless her heart” outa us.
If Kathy & her horrible shich-stirring husband were decent parents, they would have taken their family off the Bravo show after their son received naked lewd photos over the internet. Instead, they laugh and mom Kathy personally replies to the predator. That wouldn’t have been an exclusion in Bravo’s contract, but their $$ would be cut off, so their son is hurled into Bravo hell and lost any teenage years of normalcy. IMO
Lately Teresa’s blogs have been the only ones I can stomach reading. Jac’s are too long and to redundant and Kathy’s are just eye rolling material. Caroline’s are hypocritical and I am tired of her crappy parenting and Melissa is just a messy person. Soooo ready for this season to be over.
duh – it’s TWITTER -no one puts anything out that they don’t want to go viral – that’s the POINT
except for tree, these housewife ho’s just plain suck! bunch of looser morons got nothing going on
except for their tacky marriages ..dysfunctional children..and looser lives. they contribute absolutely nothing to society. how do you spell:..gag me with a spoon?
Did anyone think the “who’s side are you on, Melissa or Teresa” poll on WWHL last night with Melissa and Joe was fixed? Just reading the comments here, I think about 90 percent of us woulda voted for Teresa, yet Mel won with like 66 percent….Maybe it was because the viewers were Melissa fans, maybe Teresa fans wouldn’t sit through Mel and Joe’s stoopid behavior.
It MUST have been fixed. Bravo is against Teresa now. Teresa at least SEEMS to have a heart. She is very emotional with her brother. Melissa and Joe Gorga are HORRIBLE people. Their goal in life is to bring Teresa down. They are cold and heartless. How could anyone have voted for them? Insane.
Is it me or does it seem like Miss Andy prefers the Gorga’s over Tre. He sat there and let them go at Tre like that. Its very sad. I hope she gets her own show. I cant take the “We hate Teresa Show”. Its getting really old.
I think Teresa will get her own show, but NOT ON BRAVO. Maybe TLC or the Style Channel. Her children are pretty interesting, specially that Milania, that is girl is handful.
And what up with Lauren telling her mother how rich she wants to be. Those Manzo kids are the worst.
Well it doesn’t look like that Blk beverage scheme is going to make her brothers rich. So what the hell is Lauren talking about.
Its code for “Momma, I want you to give me as much money as you give the boys.” And momma just looks at Lauren and basically says “Grow a peetom and we will talk about it, till then.,,, you are on your own chicka”
You got me again! LOL. I swear your posts have educated me beyond repair!
Hey bravo, STOP FIXING THE POLLS!!!
MeGo can have all the fun she can get this season, come next season, her fun will be over and SHE will be the whore exposed. Just watch, wait, and see! The truth ALWAYS comes out and her skeletons will soon be exposed. Like how she REALLY DID work at Lookers, low how she REALLY DID try to get a wealthier more established man to marry her and SETTLED for Joe midget Gorga.
Melissa, most of us see right through your sneaky conniving ways.
Some of us actually know you a LONG LONG TIME.
Just wait for next season when Bravo signs on the people from YOUR past.
That will be the season to watch! SEASON 5.
Until then adios whore!
I think the polls were about the issue of what T said not who likes who. Personally I was surprised how close it was.
Nobody ever said Teresa is an ANGEL…far from it, but her worst character flaw is her ignorance. That’s why her loser husband took complete advantage of her and that’s why SNEAKY WHORES like Melissa Gorga appear to be winning…operative word here being APPEAR!
Your days are NUMBERED MELISSA! Penny is coming for you hunny…Angelo
Is coming for you hunny…your husband can try and get his lawyers to make it go away but it WONT WORK. You pissed off the WRONG GREEKS!
Ha! Good luck to you…💋
Curious: what did Melissa actually do to you that you hate her so much? It’s OK if you don’t want to say.
I would love to see Penny and it doesn’t have anything to do with Melissa; I just really like her style and the fact that she built such a wonderful business! I think she’ll add some great spice — and style — to RHONJ.
I find Looker a tad bit scary. If she has a personal issue with Melissa she should take it up with her face to face.Don’t hide behind a fake name.
I think most of us know that this is a modern day soap opera with real people as characters, and heavy handed editing to make a story line. I am a bit disturbed at how involved how some posters in Bravo’s version of reality.
Melissa and her husband are evil horrible people. Teresa is going through the most difficult time in her life. Her “family” went on the show to bully her on national TV to bring her down. That fact is not edited by Bravo. They are jealous of Tre and her success. They do not care about Tre at all.
I repeat …….I think most of us know that this is a modern day soap opera with real people as characters, and heavy handed editing to make a story line. I am a bit disturbed at how involved how some posters in Bravo’s version of reality.
We as viewers have no Idea what was truly said or done or who is good or evil. We see what Bravo wants us to see. I am not emotionally involved and don’t get involved on one side or the other. Like Joe said this is the life they chose!
Cyn, you are so wise and I love all your posts — you show so much reason and sensibility.
I totally agree with you. So many people on so many of these blogs are way too emotionally invested in these characters’ lives on-screen, in social media (twitter stalkers), and in tabloids.
Being Old has it’s privilege. Don’t believe anyone that says getting older doesn’t have it’s perks. Now that I am older I am eccentric rather than crazy and unique instead of weird and opinionated. LOL
I’m so right there with ya!
Cyn, I know I should take the high road like you , but I find lookers kinda interesting, I know all the housewives read this blog, I wonder if it freaks Melissa out when Lookers posts like that? I know it would scare the poop out of me lol!
Or it could very well be that Penny is actually tight with Mel in real life and Mel has schooled her on how to get on the show by creating a buzz regarding the storyline. And Caroline can just be saying her daughter is fat all the time knowing that its just gonna create a fan base for Lauren that would otherwise have overlook her. Just wanted to throw that out there.
MP, I agree. Also, I honestly feel that all — if not most of — this “drama” is completely made up to generate buzz and intensity from the show fanbase — and to keep people loving and hating the characters. This increases the viewership, which in turn, increases sponsors for Bravo. I think all the HWs are in on it — they are literally playing roles as semi-actresses. The mere fact that everyone discusses “storylines” is a huge tell that this is NOT reality at all.
Without the catfighting and who hates who drama, so many of these devoted followers who blow up all the other boards and twitter would not be so invested.
Yes I think these chick go in deep.
I said in my post that didn’t show up that you make me laugh! I’m not really a high roader but an invested observer. I should be a better person but if I was would I be watching this show!
lol cyn!! so true we all need our knuckles rapped with a ruler like they did in school for watching this show!!
you are concerned about others being involved in these “soap operas”? what ? you’re here ..same as everyone else.
you’re an ‘invested observer”? arent we all? so get off your holier than thou attitude.
Why so angry?
I don’t think she was being holier than thou, I think she just feels bad that things are getting so nasty. I post with Cyn all the time and we may not always be in perfect hamony on our opinions ,but that is sort of the reason I like coming here. I like to hear what other people see in a situations, sometimes I change my mind when I hear their point of view. I think she was respectful and sincere and I’m cool with that.
I don’t have a problem with Caroline, either. Wish I could be her sous chef at one of those Sunday Family dinners. Don’t get me wrong. Doesn’t mean I agree with her all the time.
Who the eff are DonCaro & Jax that they were called in to “fix” things? Everybody needs to mind their damn business. I couldn’t even watch the whole episode so i may be out of the loop as far as first hand, but up to date from this site so i think they all just need to shut up already. HOw did Tree become the bad guy all of a sudden? Over a cookbook that’s made her noticed & is doing well? The fact that she loves her brother (her only brother) & may not be fond of her sis in law. Isn’t that normal? And it’s obvious that if you aren’t somehow intermingled into the Manzo clan your an outcast. Just a mess, train wreck, that i don’t care for anymore. I’ll just get my fix from here & enjoy what everyone says.
