July 9, 2012 12:30 pm NOTE: Each RHONJ Housewife will get their own post this week for their review of last night’s episode…
Kathy Wakile… “Yeah… I’m all FOR my sister bein’ gay!! I NEED that Bravo paycheck…”
Hi, everyone, I hope you had a terrific Fourth of July. We were lucky enough to see the Macy’s Firework Spectacular from the Hudson River. It was fantastic.
There are those special summer moments that trigger some of my favorite childhood memories. A special time when things were so simple — all you needed was an ice cream cone and someone special to catch lightning bugs and play red light green light with.
Birthday parties also bring me back to those days. Seeing Antonia’s excitement when everyone started to arrive was a thrill. Um hello, birthday parties sure have changed since I was a kid.
Which brings me to Teresa and Joey. Even though they were both on the same page that therapy wasn’t really for them, I’m so happy that they did actually get something out of their session. They both agreed that they needed to start making new, happy memories. Bring on the cotton candy, popcorn, and cake. Yay! Oh and let’s not forget the gigantic caterpillar. All great things to distract you from any awkward moments.
I know Jacqueline felt a little strange coming to the party and seeing Teresa again, and I really felt for her and know how she felt. I’m glad Jacqueline came even though she was hurting inside. She was really trying to be cordial, how else will we all survive our Napa trip?
Speaking of parties, how cute was Greg when everyone surprised him for his birthday? Rich and I were so bummed that we couldn’t be there, but at least I was there in spirit (or should I say image?). Did everyone catch my face on the suit of armor in Albie, Chris, and Greg’s apartment? Those guys are hysterical; you never know what they’re going to come up with next. I love that they gave me a new hairdo too! I guess Kim Zolciak isn’t the only girl wearing wigs these days. LOL! Great times, great laughs, and happy memories. NOTE: Where does Kathy get her sense of humor? The over-ripe man triplets crammed into Hoboken are hardly “hysterical”…
This week we also got a chance to see our friends and family follow their dreams and find out what it takes to make those dreams come true. It’s a pleasure to see everyone’s ambitions and the hard work that goes into making those dreams their reality. NOTE: ”Ambitions” ”Hard Work”??? How about “Andy says product placement is great, if it’s a part of the show!!” Where does “ambitious” and “hard word” come into play when all the Manzoids are required to do is put in a call to their producer friends, who then get the OK from MissAndy?
Caroline Manzo, Lauren Manzo and Vito Scalia… pushin’ CATFACE at a local flea market
Congratulations to Lauren! Cafface has become everyone’s go-to spot for their beauty needs, and it’s absolutely gorgeous. Just wait and see the end result. How can you go wrong with a business partner like Caroline? There’s nothing like having your own mother as a partner to always keep your best interest at heart. NOTE: A business “partner” with 51% controlling interest… who names a cosmetics retail store “Cafface”? No wonder DonCaro has no businesses of her own!
Chris Judd… “Yes, Melissa Gorga was amazing!! I had no idea anyone could be THAT talentless…”
Dancing, singing, and performing on stage sure are difficult. You really have to want it badly. Melissa is getting some expert training from Cris Judd. (Can you imagine the questions Richie had for him when they met?) As an adult, it must have been so hard to focus with a family and other responsibilities to worry about. NOTE: Richie??? Why would Richie have questions for JLo’s ex?
I also loved watching Gia bounce around and learn her routine. I can’t wait for you all to see how incredible they both were at Beatstock!
The ORIGINAL promotional video from Beatstock when Beatstock took place last year… there’s no Gia and there sure ain’t no Missy!
We had the best seats in the house.
Rosie and the chick she picked up the night before… “WOW! This is great getting’ paid to be this moron’s pretend girlfriend! I think we’re a match! See, I wanted to be a neuroscientist, but couldn’t spell it, so I decided to like girls! We’re both morons! Great salmon! Oh, that was spaghetti?”
So in the spirit of new beginnings, I hope you enjoyed our family dinner as much as I enjoyed preparing it. Yes, I was a little nervous.
Kathy’s mother… a picture speaks a thousand words.
I just wanted everything to go smoothly for Rosie and Brianne. I can always count on Richie to keep the cocktails and the jokes flowing. I have to admit though, he does go a little overboard sometimes. Richie’s motto has always been “go big or go home.”
That’s what I love about him, and you always know what he’s thinking. He always reminds me not to take things so seriously. Since Rosie and I met Brianne together, I thought a family dinner was a great way for Rosie to get to know her better. What’s better than making new friends, letting your hair down, and enjoying a great meal together in your own home? Note to Kathy: Nice try to smooth things over for your very offensive husband. Your husband is disgusting.
Here’s to new beginnings, new friendships, and new happy memories! Go out and make it happen. NOTE: OR… just do what Kathy did to “make it happen”…have a close relative who appears on a “reality” show and jump on that train!
P.S. I received so many tweets about the clothes and accessories I wore in this episode, so here’s where to find them. NOTE: No one cares, Kathy!!
So pathetic. You really felt for Jacqueline with her over botoxed face and her cat hair extensions. That stripper is one nasty boring loser. And who goes to a bar, fake or otherwise and invites a stranger to Sunday dinner. Yeah, that was believable! What is believable is how gross Rich is in front of his kids, that’s why men who act like assholes learn it at home. Watch your son Kathy, he’s taking it all in.
TY SH! Exactly what u said! Richie is obnoxious & so not funny! Gross acting like teenage boy w lesbian comments; we get it Richie, u love women! Enough w him, make him go! So hard 2 watch last night w don carlo(what’ was she wearing) that family is disturbing 2 watch! Getting so excited over a cheerleader?? Like she cured Cancer they were super happy that she is a Cheerleader, wtf? Manzo, Laurita & Gorga, Gots to Go! ASAP ! Fakers w their money makers!
TY 4 making me giggle today ! Great post!
oh pleeze everyone get a sense of humor! the guy was joking and thank goodness because ALL this NJ shite is too dramalicious! I left this site for a while when you said you were pulling it down…came back to find it up and running but if everyones gonna be so damn serious all the time I’ll pack my knives and go.
NOT: You ARE joking, of course! Never said SH was “pulling down”… SH readers know to read the fine print. Since you are fairly new here, you just started commenting late last month, you may want to read the rules: http://stoopidhousewives.com/about/the-rules-please-read/
There’s no attacking other commenters… if you have an opinion state it. SH
So do all gay women show up on a second date with a U Haul? Maybe u should call sweaty drunk Rosie up and tell us how it goes.
FYI, u are the only woman (gay or not) in the Continent who finds the comment to be funny.
Rosie, is that you? Welcome!
Antonella is not rosie, just sayin’
No one is making you stay here. What Richie said was as bad as what Juicy said about gays. But of course, everyone gives the SqueakyCleanWakile family a pass..right?
NOT — Living in New Jersey is … “dramalicious” … trust me. As a Monmouth County independent professional who explores and writes about my beloved state and its people, even RHONJ folks are worthy of their characters.
I love my nation, all states, all people, and OMG, these folks are the fame-whore mongers of NJ. They ARE actually true to their natures — and that is EXACTLY what Bravo expects, in their exploitation series called “Real Housewives of XXX.”
There is indeed a huge difference between those “real” people who want to be on “reality TV” and those “real people” who do not.
As a fellow New Jerseyan, I do not feel this state is “dramalicious” unless you want it to be! Although, I can totally relate to what you are saying, Lisa Vanderpumpernickle!
Sense of humor? I think we all have a sense of humor on here! Every one here is funny and witty. We crack jokes at the expense of the RHONJ cast!
I have to laugh when the other NJHWs think that Tre is not grounded in reality. Kathy has a duplex in fool’s paradise! Her sister is an asexual slug, whom I can barely understand when she speaks, her husband is beyond repulsive on several different levels, and she is posing as a hip, with-it, knowledgeable HW with big business plans. Talk about self-deluded…
Miss Andy underestimates all of the Houewive junkies out there. We clearly see right through the Don, boring Kathy, sad sack jac, AND the Manzo spawn. I now love love love Tre and I cannot believe I am saying that. Ha!
I’d like to know how Bravo justifies trying to make Juicy look like a woman hating Neanderthal while Rich and Jogo get a pass for saying the most vile things, and acting like nasty 14 year holds looking at porn for the first time. They should have to register as sex offenders if that’s how they truly behave in real life. I would also like to know how many people pick someone up at a bar, can’t remember their name, and then bring them home to meet the family and a camera crew for their first date! Lastly, isn’t the comment Kathy made about lesbians bringing a U-Haul to a second date considered a gay slur?
Exactly meekah3 ..ITA
Yeah the u-haul comment was ignorant. Seems to me that hetro chicks do that too…. witness Albie’s cheerleader buddie slinkin out the door at the break of day with a Glad trash bag. Nuttin like the walk of shame out of the broboken apartment with a trashbag full of laundry. And BGG didnt even make her an egg white omelet for her troubles. Just wam bam getoutahere ma’am. Albie couldnt even be troubled to supply her with a proper laundry bag. This is asuming it was laundry because surly those THREE able-bodied fellas didn’t let her take out their trash?
And speaking of that. member when Alex clued us in on the time frames of the TTC sessions? Seems to me like Lyndsey was already a done dolla by the time momma sat down for her TTC hence the “Albie is soooo focused on work” groundwork necessary to explain away his hump-n-dump.
Yeah! Nobody said Hello, Goodbye, or Go to Hell! But they’re just focused on work! They aren’t monsters like Juicy, who, by the way, cried at the gay wedding while Jax was making jokes about the horses taking dumps in front of all the guests.
WTH is with The Don saying Albie can’t work and have a gf? Where is the logic that you can’t have both? And really, I wouldn’t call his BLK Water nonsense “work”. Full time work is when you go to a place of business and dedicate about 40-60 hours a week of a skill set to something and get paid for it. “Work” to the the Manzoid kids is like Kryptonite is to Superman, they won’t go near it.
Are we also suppose to believe that Lauren had any money to invest in her Crapface salon? 49% / 51% split my ass, it’s 100% Mommy backed business. Someone posted a question on another thread asking if Lauren is 24, what has she been doing for the past 6 years since graduating HS? I would really like the answer to this question. WTH did Lauren do for 4-5 years before the Bravo money train came to town aside from eating?
Caroline needs to cut the cord on all her Grown kids and STFU about everyone else’s kids.
Well the Don also happens to believe there is nothing remotely suspicious about her husband spending so much time at work that he needs his own little apartment at The Brownstone.
Well apprently Uhaul lesbian is a real thing thats been studied
We were discussing it on another board and someone googled it and boom its right there in black and white.
And Yes MP you are right I know of women who think after the second date its time to plan the wedding and move in. My last Serious BF was cautios with me because he had meet women that wanted to move in after dating a few times I assured him marriage and co habitating was the last thing on my mind sadly he didnt believe me.
Read SH every day… must have missed all that about the UHaul study. Maybe the new spinoff show will be Rosie and her “date” all moving in with her poor mother. That picture said everything.
it wasnt on here I clearly said we discussed on another Blog.
lisa: “Well apprently Uhaul lesbian is a real thing thats been studied
We were discussing it on another board and someone googled it and boom its right there in black and white.”
Another “board” is not another “blog”… boom, it’s right there in black and white!
Lis, his fault, as he could not let go and simply treat you as the new experience. Please know that you ARE a gem … and the right prospector will be eternally bedazzled by you.
The Manzo family is known for a mafia connect. Lyndsay sneaking out, Albie looking all uncomfortable, black trash bag, Hudson River a couple of feet away…….I am thinking body parts…..They were getting rid of Albie’s barbie doll collection! Duh!
bahahahaha. No wonder Albie looks like his world just ended.
dang nabbit…i missed the hefty bag during the airing episode….. but cracked up when I went back….it was a cinch sak…them is the nice ones…..and it mighta even been a scented one. I coulda only wished they had such things when I was startin out….so muti-functional…trash, laundry or luggage!
Actually to be honest with you Joe Gorga almost had to register as a sex offender. He as accused a few years ago of rape and his family was able to apply pressure to get the girl to change her mind (I’ll talk about who really did this). Just google around about this. Also who I think that really helped in 99% of it was Albert Manzo. Do you remember last season when Albert and family went to Joe Gorga’s house for the christmas party, what did Joe do once he met him? He kissed his ring on his hand a few times. I think Albert with his connections ot the Sheriff in the town (remember all those fund raisers at his house and Danielle making a snide remark about why he was so chummy with the Sheriff) was able to get them to apply pressure to her to change the story.
Buck I wonder what almost means? Was he arrested? I wonder SH if you had heard anything like that? I also wondered Buck if any of the other men on this show have been accused of rape. I do know (nephew is policeman) that being accused and being charged are really not the same. Anyone can be accused of anything just from hearsay or gossip. I am not defending him by no means,I just like to have proof of someones illegal doings before I can make a opinion on it. And dear god these people make it so hard to figure out the truth….It would not surprise me to hear that any one of those guys haven’t been accused of rape or inappropriate behavior.
I have tried googling Joe gorga for the rape accusations. nothing, nada!
All I could think of is he might have had the arrest expunged. If so, it wouldn’t appear.
Or amybe it never got past the Accusation stage interesting to see what happened
belladee: There are NO confirming documents pertaining to the rape accusations, which were included in the first Melissa email on SH… back in May 2011: http://stoopidhousewives.com/2011/05/11/melissa-gorga/
Anyone who says they have ANY information re the charges are based on pure SPECULATION. SH researched EVERY NJ courthouse, sheriff’s office and local police for documentation over a YEAR ago. There is NO backup documentation to the accusations.
Believe what you want… SH goes by fact. TFC!! SH
Ms. SH. I heard about it too from some law enforcement in Paterson who are in the know. If it got to the point of an arrest, I bet it was expunged, in which case it’s going to be hard to find. The only way to get around an expungment is if it was reported in a newspaper at the time. The only other way is if one of the agencies involved didn’t follow protocol and still has the records.
Well maybe someone can Tweet Andy during hte reunion and ask Melissa and Joe….yea lets make that happen
lisa: The reunions are filmed weeks before airing… Perhaps now would be a good time to submit your questions! The “questions” asked by MissAndy at the reunion shows are supplied by each franchise’s production company. TFC!! SH
Ops I was getting reunion and WWHL mixed up
*runs off to draft question for reunion*
lisa: LOL!!! Good luck with getting a question through to WWHL!! If you do, let us at SH know!! TFC!! SH
OMG MRS SH are you trying to give me a heart attack i jumped outta my skin when i opened my browser and saw CHUCKIE
Antonella: Well, if you know LEO’s who are “in the know”… start digging for the records/documents!! TFC!! SH
I sleep with one on a reg basis (in the same bed so Jax better not start any rumors) so let me see if I can get my hands on any docs.
I 100% believe it happened. Buck talked about it on google and I was saying I searched way back and nothing. Just like the Anthony Marco accident.
I agree. I watched this with my mouth opened.. Where do they come up with this story line.. It was ignorant. How much respect do they give to Kathy’s mother.. Couldn’t remember her name, Rich sitting there damn near drooling.. Nice for his kids to see. So they get a good meal.. They are insulting.. Rude, worse then any of the housewives.. I haven’t watched this show for awhile, I think I will pass on it again.. Count me out.
Since I cant stand to watch the show anymore I base my opinions on what people describe the situations that are going on. From what I got RotgutRosie picked up a bar homie and decided to bring her to a family dinner? Ummm if I had brought a guy that I just met at a bar(and possibly did the bumpy mamba) to a family dinner my family would probably kick his ass out! Not only that I would be sooo embarrassed….You would have to pay me a butt load of money to date rotgut and be on that show. I guess this girl needs money and also is a fame whore wannabe….I totally agree about the fact that Joe gets slammed all the time about things he says that are less then appropriate, and yet the foul stuff Itchy spews out is funny? I really think he is a homophobe, pervert, swinger and just a pile of dog poo. It amazes me that Kathy can act so lady like and yet defend her husbands vomit. Frankly I think when off camera she is as dirty and disgusting as her husband is. Fake is really rampant in these families. Its very tasteless of Kathy to pimp her sister out and also be in your face with her sisters lifestyle to her mother. Hello! She knows RotgutRosie is gay. She also knows many other things about them all that she has kept to herself. I think the fact that the show is focusing on RotgutRosie is humiliating. I think she must need money real bad to even be involved in the show. At least Tres mom and dad haven’t gotten to that point yet. Its called class…..
1. Why would Kathy “feel bad for Jacqueline” because Jac felt awkward seeing Teresa at the party? She “feels” for Jac more than she does her own cousin, who is FAMILY.
2. Why does she devote LONG paragraphs about: Albie, Chris and Greggy on Greg’s birthday?
Lauren and Caroline on the Cafface thing? And Melissa with the Chris Judd thing? But only one SHORT paragraph about her own family member Gia on her dancing? Yeah, she is all about family, NOT!
3. Does she think she is going to convince everyone that Riche’s vile statement was ok because his motto is “go big or go home?”
Her opening statement on the show about being old school and being all about respect is a joke.
TV, I like question #2. Why are they devoting most of THE SHOW to the Manzoid boys, BGG, Lauren and Rosie? And previously to Asslee? Answer? Chuckie, Kathy and Jax have nothing to offer! If they’re gonna keep it up, fire the Wives, and change the name of the show to “Real Spoiled Kids and a couple of Gay People”!
LOL ! Good title meekah3 !
Also, I would like to see someone put the faces of JoeHo, Ritchie, Greggy, Manzo boyz and Chris Laurita on the bodies of the housewives! Can’t remember the name of the poster who did the Caro / Albie on the teet one. Please do a group “Househusbands of NJ”!
TV: That is the fabulous SH reader “Housewife Hoe”!! You can see all of her work on the SH masthead! TFC!! SH
That passive aggressive Can’t Understand Normal Thinking (gotta love that acronym) biatch said that she “loved watching Gia bounce around”. So, in other words, Gia wasn’t dancing, she was just bouncing around. Well, whatever Gia was doing, she looked a hell of a lot better at it than the Lookers Stripper did when she was trying to dance.
I love the comments in red Ms SH. I laughed when reading the comment about Cris Judd. Froggy just doesn’t make any sense. Why would I imagine the ridiculous and immature questions that Jeff Goldblum would ask Cris Judd? And really Froggy, no one cares where you buy your crappy clothes and accessories.
Why was no one offended by Jeff Goldblums muff diving comment? So many went ape chit over the butt hole comment made by Joe…whats the difference?
Exactly! Andy better put Goldblum on blast for his comments last night.
You are 100% correct, ChiaPet. Couldn’t agree more.
There is no difference, but there is the good vs. bad edit, that comes from Miss Andy’s directions.
Or that Melissa said to Greg: “BLOW (emphasis) our your candles, we are at a Gay Club”.
Also, am I the only one that noticed the toilet paper stuck on Melissa heels when she got on the table to dance? That was the funniest part!
I thought I saw the T.P. on the shoe, but then I convinced myself that I must be wrong. That would be too schadenfreudelicious to be true!
OMG I saw that too! I was so embarrassed for Albie’s girlfriend having to get up there and dance with that thing and she had TP stuck on her shoes to top it off! That whole show was weird. IMO
If Rich Wakile is truly showing us what a classless piece of crap he is in real life, I’d say ol’ Teresa really has been protecting her family. Her only complaint about Richie had been that he ‘teases’ her constantly. Well… let me just tell ya… if MY BIL ‘teased me’ the way Rich teases Rosie (I hate this storyline btw) and his kids… I would’ve cut off all contact with the family and would probably tell everyone who asked that he was a pervert. So… to say he ‘teases’ Teresa…. I think she was being kind.
Rich says everything that Kathy and Melissa want to say to Teresa and adds a little “just kidding!” on the end.
Kathy needs to go back to being a hairdresser….a rich housewife she will never be. She should get out while the getting is good and go back to being a normal housewife with 2 kids and a baffoon.
I’m so sick of these horrible people humiliating Rosie and using her so they will still be relevant in this disgusting show. NOBODY acts like Kathy and her dirty old man in real life. They’re beyond nauseating!
Give it up Caroline! Your kids are spoiled, lazy brats and WE DON’T CARE! They will never be cute or interesting not matter how much money you throw at them or how much you kiss Andy’s ass to get them airtime.
There must be some serious hater-aid going on toward the NJ wives b/c the comments section for their blogs appears to be disabled. Not that I am at all surprised.
They made their own problems, now they don’t want to hear it…suck it up bioches.:-)
They are enabled for me but they posting only love and rainbow comments ATM.
I must say if Kathy is a beautician, she’s a bad one. Her hair always looks like a rat’s nest
Antonella: Kathy is a licensed NJ cosmetologist… her license is on SH. TFC!! SH
Not sure if I have ever shared this lil nugget of a tip or not. But ifn any of yall are ever lookin for a new stylist and you just walk in to a salon to take your chances, never go with the one with the best hair. Pick the one whose hair looks like the runnin gears of hell cause chances are she or he stays too busy to fool with her own or she had the one with the best lookin hair do hers and she did the one whose hair looks the best.
Now that’s some good thinkin’, MP!! But I’m still gettin’ my coif at the “Free” chair at the barber college, at least when I’m not gettin’ it buzzcut at the jail’s “salon!!”
lol. Aint nuttin wrong with that at all. In fact, I wager thems barber college haircuts is some of the bestest haircuts since they still fresh and all and eager to please their instructors.
Still not sure how I feel about a convict with a pair of shears….. my poor brother takes his chances every now and again. And even then I think he just does it to break up the monotony. In fact I think the prison barber is a lil sweet on him. Hims a right handsome feller.
In that case, MP, Kathy must be the best damn cosmetologist in the State of NJ
PS: It’s good to see the Creepy Dickie got his teeth fixed. For Free.
Are those new choppers he is sportin? I try not to look directly at him for too long.
He got his teeth fixed? Hmmmmm, the nasty mouth breather still can’t close his lips around those big ole teeth of his. Seriously, the man could eat corn on the cob through a chain link fence.
OMG! LMAO!
OMG all y’all comments are hysterical! Ana your comment made me laugh, that laugh where no sound comes out and you need to remind yourself to breath. so freak’n funny! everyone always has such funny witty comments but I dont want to look like a post whore! (i know, too late!)
Omg that’s so funny… I love the comments on this site.. So entertaining .. The best!
How dare you insult Kathy. She was just giving us some pointers about being cautious with those darn lesbeans. I once gave a lesbean a ride home and the next day there was a whole pack of them on my doorstep with a u-haul full of Birkenstocks. ALL lesbans are desperate. Kathy knows. I’m also gonna start dishing up my rancid squirrel sauced food and putting it on the table BEFORE my guests arrive from now on. They won’t have to BLOW on it when they get there. Blow, get it? HA ha. See what I did there? Ahhhh, that’s right. Me and Kathy go big or go home.
ROFLMAO!
perfect!
Ahh, contraire pierre. I don’t find them funny at all. What I am getting a little panty tickle out of, is the fact that the Wakile’s can no longer play it cool. They are desperate nerds who long to be cool like the Giudices (who don’t even try). Rich is a pathetic letch who drools on himself and can hardly tear his four eyes away from any and all cleavage (even his teenage daughters). Mouth open, buck teef askew, he awaits any opportunity to try his hand at ‘clever.’ Nearsighted, he mistakes wit for gutter shit and causes collective groans from anyone with a semi-normal IQ. His drink sipping perpetual hard on wearing, deluded, mentally ill James Bond on Skidrow impression causes deep permanent scars of shame on his impressionable son, who will move far away and leave no forwarding address when he turns 18. His lovely blank eyed wife Kathy, is coming into her own as a narrow minded bigot with no friends and no hobbies other than trying to get to know the mentally retarded lesbian sister she abandoned eons ago so that she can have a minor secondary role as ‘family idiot’ on a reality show. Swwwwwwwwwwwwweet. Have a cold Mediterranean egg roll and sit back and watch the exposure. To me, it’s better than sex.
“I also loved watching Gia bounce around.”
Congratulations on getting in a nice passive-aggressive dig at a little girl, Kathy! How does it feel to be a gargantuan ball of self-loathing slime?
What do u expect from the mother of chipmonks?
“Go big or go home”? Uh, Earth to Kathy, he WAS at home! Or is she admitting that greasy Richie sees camera time as a competition between him and the other NJ men of who is the biggest douche?
