“The plan was to do two segments: the first an honest conversation about their lives and the second as a more light hearted one.
However, Teresa refused to appear with Melissa and after many conversations, it was decided Teresa would sit down with all the hosts and then Melissa and Kathy would be interviewed by Barbara Walters, Joy Behar and Elizabeth Hasselbeck.”
Teresa Giudice… “I can’t sit with those people!”
However, it wasn’t just on-camera that Teresa wanted to stay away from her sister-in-law and cousin. The drama was palpable backstage.
“They all had separate dressing rooms and Teresa got out of her car and went straight to her room,” the insider continued. “After she taped her interview she left right away, she didn’t want to sit around and listen to what the other ladies had to say about her.”
Barbara Walters’ first question for Teresa was, “Why did you refuse to appear with you sister-in-law and cousin?”
Teresa responded that she didn’t feel she should do so in front of an audience, to which Walters said, “You do everything in front of a camera!”
NOTE: Received this from “anonymous” this morning… attempts to vet the sender failed:
There was NO plan to take Ter down… it was misinformation to cause drama for people to watch the show. DRAMA for ratings…. Just part of the game.
MeGo says that she did not join the RHONJ to bash Tree…
Bawbwa went right in.
Teresa can stand on her own and hold a stage. Melissa and Kathy will always be second tier attractions. NO matter how much you love or hate TEresa…..she is polarizing and you can’t help but watch her. Kathy, Melissa, and Jacqueline all need “something” to keep a storyline. Kathy needed her gay sister Rosie to stay relevant, Melissa needs her Teresa storyline to remain relevant, and Jacqueline had Ashley, but now her Teresa for this season to remain relevant. Even TEresa’s kids are more interesting and fun to watch. Although Gabrielle is shy….Gia, Milania, and baby audriana steal the show. I don’t even remember the names of the other little kids. As far as husbands go….again love him or hate him Joe Guidice is memorable. Every time an episode airs….everyone is talking about Tre and her family. Could barely remember what happened in the scenes not involving TEresa….too boring. Joe Gorga is making an attempt to steal the show, but his attempts seem stale and fake. The set up scenes with the wakile/gorga clan are too transparent and weak.
I agree 100%
Right on the money. I also agree 100%
The only reason why Melissa and Frog eyes were invites to the view
Was clearly thanks tO Teresa.
OMG frog eyes i have to say thats a good one.
I agree. Every time Joe Giudice is on I listen, when Joe Gorga is on I just hear wa wa, wa waa wa. Joe Giudice has his faults, but at least he’s not always talking about “poison” and calling his siblings names.
At least tre, and Trees Hubby Joe are true to themselves, they don’t care what anyone , any network, any viewer, any camera, is watching or thinking. He may be inappropriate at times, but who isn’t? who is perfect always? no one, which is why people are drawn to tree and her family. B/c they keep it real. Their kids do bad stuff, they have family fights, they stick their foot in their mouths just like you & me! Mel and Joe are so phony and fake. No kids are shhhh quiet all day. NO marriage is perfect! and they need to give ‘we the viewers’ some respect and stop thinking we’re dumb and not on to them! We see through them like TUPPERWARE!
Yeap yeap
I dont want to change the subject (just an observation)….MAN! Lisa’s neck is FUBAR! (wallpaper!)….youza!
She is such a snake! Manipulative, Meslither! I think Tre is smart to stay well away from them. BW is right they do everything in front of a camera and they poke, pick and rip her to shreds, She isn’t quick enough!
Teresa I wish you let the family drama go! Even your Punk *** hubby JuicyJoe..(what a joke..lol) is tired of the bs. She is piss that her family is on the show…lol..”HEY TREE, NO ONE IS STEALING YOUR SHINE” You are the topic every week out of the mouths of Mama Caroline & Wimpy Jax
WOW! So Babawawa the supposedly professional newswoman starts right out showing how unbiased she is….right….By the way if Babawawa really wanted Tree to appear with her other guests she would have made it happen or not have Tree on at all. Everyone knows she is the boss. To me she might be trying to get their ratings up also…
I agree with you!! After reading this I am really starting to believe the story that they wanted them to resolve their issues on camera and Teresa supposedly said “no” and claimed that at this point things should be handled privately. This is just something else, IDK….this is draining!! LOL!
But remember this is The View we are talking about. They never try to “resolve” issues. They just like to fuss. ratings.
You are right about that!! I guess that’s why I don’t watch that show!
However: Barbara Walters has a 100 percent true point: Everything they do is in front of a camera. They signed up to become “reality stars.” They gave up their rights to any privacy other than inside their homes when the cameras are not filming.
Not exactly, I mean Teresa didn’t sign up WITH Melissa and Kathy…unlike Caroline who did sign up with Dina but refuses to tell us WHY they are fighting.
You’re so right! They signed up behind her back. why is NO ONE calling them out???
Elizabeth is gonna…so let’s hope Obama gets off the air soon! LOL
Am thinking this was the plan all along…to get everyone to set the tivo to tape Obama’s excuses. And when you think about it Polly-ticks is the ultimate in junk reality tv.
Good point!…If I were Tre, I wouldnt do it either!….I would only film wth them under the current bravo contract.
For sure and I would keep pointing out that Caroline should NOT be able to keep her fight with Dina private especially since she signed up for a reality show with her AND keeps blaming Teresa.
mmm…I hear Melissa saying “run away, like you always do, coward…..” ugh…I hope they trash the entire cast if that is what it will take to get brain dead Teresa and her foul husband and bratty children (yep, I went there…keep them off TV…look at the Gosselins) off the air.
I guarantee that if there are no cameras and no people around, Melo is the one running for the hills. Tree would wipe the floor with horse face and her scary sisters.
The thing about Melissa saying that is it implies she is always having to run away from Mel. Why is that? Why cant Mel just leave her alone? Why does Mel feel the need to follow her around and force a confrontation? Tree can’t run from someone that inst chasing her. Mel needs to sit down.
Now that’s something that I’ve never thought about! Good point MP!
For some reason I think of Mel as slithering, rather than running.
Let’s play nice with the children, they are innocent in all of this.
The email this morning sounds so familiar. Sounds so much like what Looker Dancer said about the thrown drink at a party that Sherri Sheppard attended. Drama make up for the show,
Lookers Dancer is a lair. She will do whatever it takes to bring Teresa down. Also she is the person running to US each week with a new story on Teresa. Get ready for the latest all about Teresa no sitting down with sweet and innocent Looker on the view. Barf!
Everything that still think Looker Dancer is the sweet one in the family needs to spend an afternoon reading FameWhores… on the SH blogroll.
Dammit, the news broke into Rachael Ray because Obama is going to speak! This stuff is always so long-winded and will probably pre-empt the View programming so I might miss it the one f-ing time I want to watch it. Dammit, Mr. President, couldn’t you have scheduled your speech for 1:00 pm???? WHY NOW?
Because All My Children is off the air. LOL
The View is now showing on ABC. They’re interviewing some actor now. I hope I didn’t miss the RHNJ ladies
what’s going on now?? I am at work and can’t stand the suspense!! Fill in real time!! pretty please???
They interviewed Tre and it was lame, Barbara just kept asking if Tre would do another season. Then Katty and Mego came out and Mego just said that the fight isn’t her fault, she just wants Tre outta her marriage. The ladies asked them basically why they can’t just makeup.
kel: Uploading interview now…please be patient!! TFC!! SH
oh good!! you’re awesome SH!!
Lol, sorry. That is funny cuz I just watched it but I am sitting here waiting for SH to post it so I can re-examine it!
whaaaaaat…that’s it?? how anti-climatic. I thought one of them was going to grill Mego?? Dang!
Thanks for the update Kel!!
Entree: The full interview will be on SH shortly… patience!!! LOL!! TFC!! SH
AT WORK!! SH, HUUUURRRRRY!!! Before lunch is ova!!!
Without Teresa there would be no point interviewing Melissa or Kathy. Although, one good interviewer might like to interview Kathy about having a gay sister. There is nothing else to ask Melissa about. Please Bravo kick Melissa and Kathy off. Enough already. Let’s have some fun and watch Teresa and her crazy kids shopping, dancing, auditioning, cooking being naughty, going to parties. Bring new people to be with Teresa I’m sure more than one or two won’t like her because she is who she is which will create drama but don’t mess with the family any more.
wow…Just watched the View….Theresa really has a hard time articulating her thoughts…it’s extremely annoying to watch. I find it impossible to believe that she “wrote” a single sentence in any of her books. Melissa & Kathy are playing the innocent victims again. Melissa’s makeup is TERRIBLE!!!!!!!!!!! I wish BRAVO would fire those two.
Also. all of the shows, interviews, talking heads…and still can’t figure out what the heck these women are fighting about.
Last’s season reunion – remember when Tre said “I’m from Paterson. Bring it on.” (or something close to that). I loved that she took the women on – Caroline, Kathy and MeGo. Jax couldn’t show up (hung over or coward).
Then’s when I really sided with Tre. She fought ‘em. A one-on-one fight is fair. Three on one is not fair. But Tre held the line.
The Dina story peddled by Caroline. Bullshit. Sisters will stick together – unless one sister cut the other one up. DonCaro’s blaming Tre for Dina’s absence is bullshit. And DonCaro should shut up about it. DonCaro’s mistake is playing everybody for stoopid. Only works some of the time. And when you are found out – look out.
Love this site.
Well said, Love NJ.
