About Stoopid Housewives

The Real Housewives franchises have become a guilty pleasure for me and I've become intrigued by 'normal' people who would agree to put their lives on television for public display and scrutiny. What are their motives to divulge their daily routines for viewing audiences to approve, reprimand, berate, castigate, attack; basically abuse and judge? Oh, just forget about the above nonsense... the majority of these people are just stoo-pid.

    I’ve never watched A Cooper’s show. I loved him when he was a newsman. Hell I loved him when he was on MTV.

    This though – is soooo very sad.

    And what was with the idiot audience member talking about twitter and blood pressure.

    • kel says:

      Ya, that guy looked like a plant, maybe they wanted to go off in the direction that the twitter thing is outta hand…

      • kas6787 says:

        LOL ! The geek sitting there with his open laptop…phuuuuleezze ! How fake !Another lying sack of sh**t who WOULD NOT answer Tre with the truth that she does not fight on twitter.. once again leaving the truth up in the air in regards to wacko jacko and what she does to those who do not read the blogs and see the reality behind the scenes.

        Not impressed by anderson’s second attempt with Tre. He was STILL trying to do spin for his boyfriend.

        • ChiaPet says:

          Tree did a great job shutting up that laptop A hole. He was trying to say Tree is involved in twitter wars.
          That is Jax game not Trees, that A hole should be in the audience when Jax comes back on Anderson.

        • mc says:

          Kas6787- ITA about his second attempt. WTF! I am so sick of this magazine COVERUP! Andy knows the game, why is he acting like oh, so you didn’t get paid! That blogger was a tool and what was he talking about? Blood pressure and twitter wars? Why was he even there to attempt to call T out? That did not look random and he looked like an ass insinuating T was involved in twitter wars. Anderson attempt was lame. It appeared Anderson was better at covering up today what we NOW know about his feelings for her. My heart breaks for T. She always cries when it comes to her brother and that is not acting.

      • Maggs says:

        That was Jared from Just Jared gossip blog who doesn’t know what the hellz he is talking about and should shut the eff up.

        • difromnyc says:

          GET THE HELL OUT! Wow he sucked. What a sad reality when a gossip blog can’t keep stuff straight.

          • Maggs says:

            Yep – AC introduced him but it was kind of hard to hear. He looked like a complete moron! Everbody knows (Phaedra voice) that Tre doesn’t have twitter wars. She uses twitter to promote her brand because she is MUCH smarter than the rest of the cast combined.

        • Antonella says:

          Only person that JustJared follows on Twitter is Andy Cohen so how exactly would he know anything about who is involved in twitter wars? If he had looked at Teresa’s twitter page he would have seen that she never engages, even when BGG called her names after the lap band comment on WWHL

      • msacanada says:

        If I am not mistaken they his name is Jared and he runs a sight called “Just Jared”.

    • shelagh5 says:

      I just watched the clip from miss SH… What a puss… No respect for that man at all. He is miss Andy’s bum partner… I could tell he hated to do the second show… He had to eat crow… Why read jackasses twitter… Showing favoritism much… Reading that text was a slap in the face to Teresa, shows, he is not fair… He picked the one text that would get to Teresa and he ran with it.. I wonder if Mandy told Anderson what to say, to see if she would explode… Didn’t work Andy… She didn’t fall for it.. And yes that guy in the audience was just plain stupid… I wonder how long it’s going to take jack ass to start her twitter war.. Lets see, make sure the kids get off the bus… Mix a drink, pop a Xanax or two, have another baileys.. Phone in hand, twitter here i am…. Ready set go……

      • adioslunatic says:

        Teresa always hold back her tears, it’s heartbreaking. She has had far too much pain to swallow these past few years…

      • Bitter Brittany says:

        Do you think she helps her kids off bus? I’d be embarrassed if my drunk mom was outside waving and falling down when I pulled up…. I bet she hides her liquor and coke in the blk bottle

        • shelagh5 says:

          No she doesn’t do the bus thing… She is hiding behind the curtain, waiting, half face showing (only half because its frozen in a blotched injection), drink in the other, sees the kids, good, now I can begin… Twitter and Xanax, pour another..

    • just me says:

      I always loved him on AC 360 … seeing him go to day time just took away all of his credibility as a serious journalist … I think he thought he’d take the same route as Barbara Walters took when she switched to day time …. not so much particularly after this debacle . I’m fairly certain the ardent Tre haters will become loyal fans though

  2. kel says:

    Why was it so hard to give a normal interview like this yesterday, Anderson? Oh, that was before you got BLASTED on every social media site… Although it is nice that they brought her back and let her get a word in edgewise, It doesn’t really take away the negativity from yesterday, for some reason.

  3. magdella says:

    Well, he redeemed himself. Man, Teresa must have some clout as a celebrity for him to do this. Her fans must have given him all sorts of you-know-what.
    Lol, the other HWs must be fuuuuuming and jealous. Love it.

    • bagladey says:

      Anderson’s behaviour was much better today. The other housewives must be fuming; especially Caroline. Anderson was out of line yesterday, and very unprofessional. Tre needs to stop answering questions about Jacqueline and giving her free publicity while wasting the precious time that she could use to advertise her own products; she should just say that Jac has threatened to sue her if she talks about her, so she can’t; and let Jac go find her own publicity – without mentioning Teresa.
      Melissa’s quest for fame and fortune and the devious, underhanded way that she set out to get it is what caused the break-up of the family.

      • shelagh5 says:

        You’re right bag… Teresa should just sit there and say nothing when someone brings up jac… Say absolutely nothing.. I wonder how long it would take for the subject to be changed? Perhaps 10 secs. Or less.

      • Russia says:

        That would be too funny

    • Va Fa Napoli says:

      My thoughts exactly magdella. My first reaction to this thread was WOW they let her have a do over? lol Im very impressive with her clout. Anderson is a total douche I have lost all respect for him… to think i was even gonna go to his show….pfff…. yea right! Hope his show tanks. U know what I dont get? When shaft was doing her interviews about russels death, we all saw the interviews and were PISSED no one called her out. Why is it NOW an interviewer calls teresa out? Everything has become very PC. U dont bash the person and if you do, they know about it beforehand.
      It just makes me wonder what shes done to all these people. Maybe shes diva-esque and makes certain demands which andy and the crew dont like. Give the woman the respect she deserves miss andy, she lines your pockets.

      • just me says:

        I have the feeling her “do over” wasn’t because he was feeling overly altruistic but more along the lines of he had no idea how many Tre supporters there are and felt the wrath of their ire after he ambushed her in that entirely rude and unprofessional way. I’m in no way saying that it should have been a fluff piece but, it was unprofessional and in poor taste from start to finish

        • MyThreeSphynxs says:

          Heck, I’m not even a Tree supporter. I don’t support any of them, I used to enjoy watching them but now they are all destroying their lives and families…… But, I digress. Anyway, even as a neutral watcher I was appalled at the way Anderson treated her. There was no excuse for him to be so unprofessional. Pathetic. He wasn’t much better on the do over. His lead in, which I supposed to be some sort of an apology, was just a bunch of senseless babble.

  4. Stinkerbell says:

    What with a big ass pic of Bubba Jax in the background? I don’t remember there being a big picture of Tre during Anderson’s interview with Jax. Seems kinda underhanded. Impartial, I think not!

  5. Bizzymammabee says:

    AC is a lying sack of shit. He wasn’t worried that he was rude, his handlers and PR people got in his ass about how people were responding to his high handedness and nastiness. If I had been Tre when he asked her if she was 12 and how he gets attacked all the time yet rises above it, I would have told him to suck it and walked off. I get she needs to make the rounds, but for someone to not understand why she made the blubber comment, that is a bit much. Caro has made many nasty comments to Tre over the taping of this season, both in her face and behind her back. There is only so long that a person can continue to eat shit and smile like it’s ice cream. AC was not sincere if you ask me. This follow up in addition to the initial interview was just about hopping on to the gravy train that is associated with this highly watched franchise.

    • Annah says:

      I think he screwed up the whole point of having her own the show. He was SUPPOSE to make Teresa look bad but because of his attitude it made him look bad. So he brought her back on, trying to look like the good guy and asking Teresa ‘innocent’ questions that he thought she would hang herself with. When you want to make someone look bad you can’t come across as the rude, out of line, loud mouth, it will backfire. This is unfortunately one of Teresa’s downfalls as well. The passive aggressive thing actually fools a LOT of people, which is why some people think Kathy and Melissa are innocent.

    • CJ says:

      Bizzy, you are correct. Panderson said he thought he was rude. BS. Everybody else thought he was not only rude, but a bully. Consequently, Panderson is trying to save the audience he does have. In our market, his show is on the same time as Ellen. LOL

      • shelagh5 says:

        CJ
        You’re right.. He didn’t see himself as rude, others did… I bet the phones lit up like Christmas, and he had no choice… Anderson is was and always will be a whimp… Grow some balls cooper, I won’t watch your show, no more… Actually I haven’t for awhile.. But it makes me happy I stopped awhile ago…

    • Just me says:

      exactly. IM0 , he knew nothing of the show aside from what Andy told him and was, in no way, expecting the back lash which followed his attack

  6. Annah says:

    It peeved me off when that woman said to Teresa that she should just walk away…. do they even watch the show, Teresa has been walking away for 2 years…. its about time she said something and stuck up for herself. The guy talking about twitter…. I guess he doesn’t pay attention either because Teresa is never involved in the twitter fights and gossip.

    • Bizzymammabee says:

      That chick needs to be relevant as well. I don’t even know who she is. Yeah sure everyone says she should walk away, but if they were in the thick of this mess would they be saying the same thing. I know at this point I would have already probably have been arrested for choking on of those heffas.

      • Annah says:

        Exactly… people have even said that she should leave the show to save her family. Ummm, so Teresa is bad for staying on the show, but the others take no heat for coming onto the show and CAUSING the family problems. It is like they are telling Teresa to stop being mad at her family for causing the problems because it is really her fault for continuing to stay on the show.

        • Bizzymammabee says:

          Being on that show is a whole catch 22 situation. At this point financially she needs to be there and ride the wave to take care of her family in light of their financial problems. On the other hand being a part of that show, her success is bringing out the green eyed monster from her friends and family members to the point they want to tear her down. So she really is damned if she does and damned if she doesn’t. Definitely don’t envy her. I don’t think anyone of them, well other than Kathy and Mego, really understood what it meant being part of this show. They all thought they were going to be on and le it be some stupid casual stuff. Never in a million years, do I think Tre knew that Andy and the Bravo people were going to bring in family members hell bent on destroying her and showing their collective asses in the process.

          • Annah says:

            I agree, well said. I still don’t know if Teresa realizes that Andy is NOT on her side. I don’t think she is aware that he and production have it in for her.

            • Bizzymammabee says:

              Andy is a grimey ltitle bastard, he smiles in her face and does his best to stir the pot and egg things on to make her look bad.

              I watched that last WWHL with Kelly and Mark and it is funny how he again brought up the whole Joe telephone call thing. Matter of fact it seems like he showed a little bit more than what they showed on the show. If he wants to blow up other people’s relationships so much, since he is such a gossip harpie, how come he didn’t make any references to all the hooplah about Anderson’s man getting caught cheating on him.

            • cns says:

              Thank you Annah. I totally agree.

            • shelagh5 says:

              I think Teresa knows… How many times has she been on wwhl, and she never wins the poll. She knows that he can’t stand her… I wish she would beat the shit out of Andy…instead of just pushing him… And when she is through with Andy, beat the crap out of Anderson too… My dream…

              • ImThePuppeteer says:

                I may be in the minority here, but I don’t think Andy hates Teresa. He hated JillZ, thus fired her. I believe he wants Tre to keep flipping tables and causing a ruckus. She HAS to play the part of the mean girl now thqat DirtyD is gone. It fits his lame story line. That’s why AC started right away with the “You’re sooo mean, Teresa” stuff. She is a gold mine for Andy. That plus they love to make fun of her. She’s a good soldier for Bravo. Jacqueline? Not so much. She’s just pathetic with going off the rails with her twitter rants, etc.

          • You hit the nail on the head. How horrible it must feels to know that your own brother would take part in wanting to tear you down. Melissa only does what she does because Joe is in on it with her. If he was so sincere about his sister, there is no way in hell he would have agreed to taking part in bringing her down. Lumpy mattress built Kathy is no better. She plays the innocent role so well, but she’s just as jealous of Tre as Caroline and its a shame. I bet Caroline when at home with her family without the cameras sat back and have a good laugh at how dumb Kathy, Rich and the Gorgas are. Hell, her own sister said she wasn’t any good. What else do they need to see what’s really going on?

        • jayelle says:

          All the women want Teresa to leave.
          I watched a rerun of the second reunion, they were all attacking Danielle then Danielle left the show.
          These women want to do the same to Teresa.
          They shouldn’t have that power.

          • I guess they don’t realize that without Tre there is no show. Tre has her faults and is not 100% innocent in all of this, but love seeing the under dog rise to the top and that’s why they can’t stand her. If it was Caroline getting the book deals etc, none of this would be an issue.

            • just me says:

              Exactly, if she leaves, she takes all of their story lines with her . As far as I can tell, the only thing any of them had to talk about this year was her

      • njinthehouse says:

        What is with these awkward guest hosts who sit there all quiet? He should’ve just joined Kelly Ripa’s show. this is a hot mess.

        • Maggs says:

          I agree. His show is crap. He had good chemistry with Ripa and would have made a great co-host. But nooooo – his wittle ego told him he has to have his OWN crummy daytime talk show. Ugh. I used to like him on CNN and now I can’t stand him. He acted like a douche yesterday and was just as douchey today. Did he even apoligize to Tre for how rude he was to her? I didn’t hear him say he was sorry. The only reason he had her back is because of ratings. He saw the reaction he got on twitter and realized how many people are wrapped up in Tre’s story.

          • MyThreeSphynxs says:

            I didn’t hear him say he was sorry either. He just blabbered some senseless words. He should have said “I was out of line yesterday. I apologize for the way I spoke to you.” Ridiculous.

    • Ana Cephaly says:

      Teresa walked away at that BS solstice party and MeGo goaded her with, “Walk away, coward, like you always do” until she came back at her. She walked away when her brother called her a “f*cking b*tch” at KatFish’s pool party. They don’t want her to walk away, and they don’t want her to stay and fight, they expect her to lie down like a doormat for them to walk all over her.

      • Annah says:

        She walked away at the christening as well. So if Teresa is the instigator like the say, why would Melissa say to walk away like she ALWAYS does…. obviously Teresa is the one to walk away most of the time….

        • Bullie says:

          She also walked away when Caroline started laying into her after the Katfish Wakile hot tub spectacular, then Caroline says something about her just running away from her problems again. Like a true Taurus, Teresa falls for it every time. I can’t blame her. I’d sit there so long I’d start going grey if it meant I could make someone who was wronging me look like an asshole.

      • Moni says:

        I was thinking the same thing. She’s running away from the drama. Of course no one will mention that. That’s why she has a fan base. Some fans of the show see that, others..not so much. I love when people say “are we watching the same show”. Yes. Fact is you either like her or don’t. If I had to pick which one to hang around with, it would be Teresa.

      • shelagh5 says:

        I hated that.. “Walk away you coward”.. Teresa is many things, good things, but a coward Never!

        • cacao says:

          Teresa is a f**king warrior.

          • adioslunatic says:

            Yes she is, Cacao, yes she is.

            • just me says:

              and then some. Whatever her faults …. she dusted herself off, held her head up and worked her butt off to make something of the opportunity she was given
              Love her or hate her fundamentally, you’ve got to respect that

          • shelagh5 says:

            I’d want her on my team to, she will always win… She might have lost a brother, but its his loss, not hers..she is winning the war..

            • lisa the Irish Dragon says:

              I respect the way Tre dosnt let people walk on her nd she fights back I just wish she didnt stoop to her atatckers level becasue when she does she dose so more nasty then they are. I dont want her to be a door mat either if that akes sense.

              • CJ says:

                Lisa, how is Teresa nastier than those Manzoid/Liarita/Whorga animals?

              • lisa the Irish Dragon says:

                Maybe that was the wrong way to put it CJ maybe its all in th edelievery that makes it sound worse. I dont want to come off with people thinking I think tre is nastier then the rest because that not wat I think They manzo crowd has been really nasty to her Its something in the way Tre delievers her insults back that make them sound worse Could be because of her lack of articualtion is what the problem is.
                I do not support anyway these ladies fight

              • Va Fa Napoli says:

                I know what u mean lisa. But teresa sits quiet…lets them attack then BOOM she hits you where it hurts… lol Which, i actually approve of. She TRIES not to stoop to their level..but hell… a girls gotta get a jab in too….

              • lisa the Irish Dragon says:

                Yea I think you said it well she is quiet them BOOM
                hits it were it hurts They do seem to be rather stunned to when she does it

      • MARIE says:

        Well said Ana……Teresa is no doormat and they hate her for that and for her success. I hope they all leave and take that bulldog Caroline with them. Teresa hang in there–don’t let these haters get to you.

        • just me says:

          Personally, I”m happy to see that she’s standing up against the bullying and even more pleased to see her “handlers” have coached her to keep her calm and not start flipping tables and going crazy … She’s winning by a mile on all levels.

          The only thing I’ve not figured out is if all of the ganging up on her was scripted by Bravo to garner supporters/fans for her and help her sell product or if that was just a nice side benefit

  7. maybeitsyou says:

    The gullible will believe the way the show (RHWONJ) is edited. Anyone watching Carowhine’s or Jax’s faces can see where the problem is coming from. Do you recall the first season when Carowhine saw Tre as being on her “side” agaist Danielle? She kept saying how sweet & funny Tre was. How much she loved Tre’s kids. Now with Danielle gone, Tre is mean , crazy bad person whose has no idea how to raise kids. Lol!! The unhappy can always find a way to blame someone else & something they don’t like about them, even if they have to make it up. I still feel a little sorry for Jax but not so much Carowhine. She acts like she just has to make a clown out of herself. Funny but odd really.

  8. One thing that’s totally true: being on TV ruined this family relationship. I think Tre does have a blind side about her own role, but I also think that Caroline & Jacq are totally ridiculous in how they attacked her and kept the pot boiling. Bravo loves this, but I think it’s the demise of RHONJ.

    • I 100% agree with you. Tre does not recognize her role in the demise of her family. She thinks that because her antics are justified, she can continue. She has not learned how to navigate the daggers thrown at her and retaliate with kindness or dodge the daggers and return hugs. Instead she met aggression and jealousy with aggression and vented to her “friends” who have now twisted her words and used them against her.

      Its a sad situation. I know all to well how to dodge daggers and turn relationships around. There have been many attempts to bully me or make me break. They all have ended with my attackers and I becoming friends. I dont take their BS personally, i overlook it and kill them with kindness. Or just walk away.

      • Pompano Ann says:

        Meadow; you make some GREAT points here! Watching the interview; and digging a little deep; this goes back to Melissa and Kathy getting on the show; is this were the anger is coming from??? Tre is saying why didn’t her family ask her to be on the show; they went behind her back? Bravo did not confirm with the other ladies of the two new ones? Is Tre mad that they got on the show behind her back or mad that they got on the show and a threat of stealing her lime light? When season 3 opened; it opened up to a huge fight; what was brewing before that? This tension flowed over to Jax and Caroline; because they did not know what side to take and who to believe. I think in the maddness of this is where Tre started to lose it and did not know how to handle it and ruined her friendships and season four try to go back to family and now look she is odd man out! So questions? Melissa and Kathy came up with the idea to get on the show or Bravo knew behind the scenes of tension and decided to pursue this. How deep is Danielle in on this one? Did she coax Melissa to get on the show?

        • Maggs says:

          The Gorgas and Wakilies got on the show by promising to start a feud with Tre! Yes, they had family issues before but you never heard Tre mention them on the show until her relatives joined he cast. Her brother sacrificed his relationship with his ONLY sibling to get his whore wife on tv!

        • ElmoZoe says:

          I believe that Joe Gorga saw what a “star” his sister became because of the table flip, and he was just trying to “copy” her at the Christening and get that same reaction from the public. I’m sure he thought that if it worked for Teresa, it would work for him and Melissa. Unfortunately, it got WAY out of hand, and actually backfired on them.

        • fabelloonie says:

          MeHo is the one who contacted DirtyD and wanted to come on as her “friend” on season 2. DirtyD didn’t bite. I think Tree’s anger is coming from the fact that she didn’t want her issues with MeHo and JoeG aired publicly out of respect for her parents.

          • cacao says:

            Maybe Danielle told MeHoe all the dirt she knew about the Manzos/Lauritas…then MeHoe told Caroline that Teresa has been telling everyone about Caro’s family issues.

            Then Caro starts an anti-Teresa crusade…
            Maybe?

            • adioslunatic says:

              @cacao You may be right that MeHo had the goods on the Manzos/Lauritas but that didn’t come from Teresa. Jacko LOVES telling secrets and she was dead on Danielle’s side for at least a season and and a half. Any dirt she has on them came from Jacko. Go back and watch the interactions between Jacko and Danielle season 1… I think Jacko despises Dina. Jacko, in my opinion, is the root of all evil in this show. She never once defended Dina when Danielle was trash talking her. If you watch the Ladybug fundraiser episode (Season 1 episode 2) Jacko really lets her feelings toward Dina fly. She spent most of her time in the bathroom complaining to Teresa about Dina. How Jacko was ticked off that Dina actually expected her to help, how Jacko thought she was there as a guest – God forbid she get off her lazy ass for anything other than to put another shot in her coffee! All Dina asks her to do is to sell some raffle tickets – that beast! how dare she! Teresa and Jacko are in the bathroom and Teresa is actually giving Jacko some sage advice! Imagine that, Teresa giving thoughtful advice about SILs. Here’s the irony. Teresa could have gone off about her bitch SIL and trash Meho to the high Heavens but what does irrational, hot headed Teresa say? “Sister-in-laws are different than friends”, that Dina has never been snippy to Teresa, that maybe because Jacko and Dina “are family she can be a little different with you” {in regards to Dina asking her to help} even though Teresa was like, Okay, what do you want us to do, no hesitation. What a diva Teresa is… I digress…Jacko is saying that she basically doesn’t want to take orders from Dina and Teresa replies “Well maybe when she does that say something like “I’m trying to help you”. That crazy Teresa! Always trying to stir things up!

              I think Jacko is falling apart because she thinks/knows all the shit she has stirred these past 4 years are going to come flying back into her face in one huge Splat!

              • cacao says:

                ” God forbid she get off her lazy ass for anything other than to put another shot in her coffee! ” LOL!
                I agree with you. Jacko seems to hate Dina. I remember the bathroom scene.
                No, no…I didnt say Teresa was involved.
                Jacko->Danielle->Melissa. Melissa tells Caroline all the dirt she knows about Caros’ fambly: “How do i know that? Teresa told me, of course!”

              Interesting. Good theory.

        • Neet222 says:

          I think Teresa is mad because from what I read over and over is they only got on the show by the promise of ‘Taking Teresa Down’!!

          • Aint Pittypat says:

            IMO Teresa most likely figured out after 2 seasons that Bravo can and will use anything and absolutely everything against cast members who have legal or financial issues. She knew MeHo had conspired with Danielle and that probably left a bitter taste in her mouth. Who really bore the brunt of the blame for the Danielle fiasco while the other women got a pass. I have nothing concrete to justify this but Teresa knows the skeletons in Mellissa’s ample closet are not the usual skeletons Take a good hard look at the Angelo characters and Lookers FB page? Do you really think that place looks anything but sordid? caro can say stripping is just about earning a living but has she ever stripped? does she want Lauren to strip? There are far better jobs for women seeking a paycheck that do not involve demeaning themselves, hanging out with druggies and lowlifes.

        • Va Fa Napoli says:

          This is what i think…. i think tre signed on to whatever season was the gorgas first season. She signed, negotiated the money part and agreed for the upcoming season. THEN found out her fam was gonna be on and was PISSED bcuz she knew what was in store., This is pure specualtion on my part…but wouldnt that make sense? Im SURE she would have asked for a boatload more money because she knew what she was in for. I think bravo screwed her royally! Allegedly***
          And also, i really wish she would own some of her wrongt doing. Even if they dont apologize she can say things like, i shouldnt have said that it was mean but i was very hurt. Instead of actually apologizing, Im pretty sure u read these blogs teresa, so try incorporating that into your interviews!! I think it’ll help :)
          Love, Devoted tree hugger :P

    • RealHouseKnife says:

      So true.

    • Just me says:

      I have to disagree about being on the show ruining that relationship and here’s why
      In just about ANY old school Italian family, the first son is revered beyond belief. If he’s the only son well, fuggedaboutit .. nothing can come between an Italian mother and her son

      Joey and Mel’s relationship with his parents is pretty telling that there was something going on long before they came on the show and Joe and Mel were at the root of it

      • adioslunatic says:

        @ Just me EXACTLY!!!! It’s also the reason Teresa put him on a pedestal and the same reason he thinks he’s an angel from God and the same reason he treats his sister like dirt and the same reason he thinks Teresa has to kiss his wife’s ass even if she treats her like shit etc etc etc

        • just me says:

          And she knows it. For whatever reason, Mel will never be accepted by their family and the midget takes it out on Tre and allows her to f++k over his one and only sister. Sad thing is, when Mel leaves him for deeper pockets (and she will), Tre will forgive him and take him back after all of the insipid things he’s said and done to her

          • lisa the Irish Dragon says:

            so what Should Joey do Divorce Melissa so he can make up with his parents and sister
            I have wonder why The edler Gorgas are so RAHRAH for juicy after he called there daughter names on tv,is heading for jail and went broke forcinghis wife out to work herself My guess in old school italian family the Women stayed home with the kids.

                First off telling me to “take my meds” is a attack I didnt insult Teresa or even mention her name so where you got TRE IS EVIL is beyond me You tried to belittle what i said by making insulting comments I did NOT do that to you I simply asked a question

Same master’s degree, same intolerance for ignorance and I speak to people in the exact manner in which they speak to me .. always have, always will

            • adioslunatic says:

              He should have never married her to begin with. He met her at a bar working men for money in a g-string and a bra (you’ve seen the pictures of what those girls wear, not a tank top or shorts to be found, not to mention the suggestive poses they were in) he met her at the end of Oct. moved her in in Nov. got engaged in Dec and married in Aug. He couldn’t have known her, not her core, not the real Mel Marco. The midget has shown us that the only head he thinks with is his dick and his family was aware of his penchant for bimbos. He was engaged twice. Explain to me how you can meet 3 women/men in a few years time that you think are your soul-mate? Melissa is a cheap tramp, have you seen the picture out there of her simulating fellatio on her husband in the middle of a dance floor with Caro and company looking on? Is that how a lady/mother/wife conducts herself? I bet his parents would put on a pot of sauce, call her up and apologize for EVER thinking she was a whore after their son’s money if they ever saw that photo. It would wipe any doubt out of their minds. God only knows what they have heard about this trampoline, the reviews on that club claim you can score the girls and they’ll service you in the parking lot.

              • lisa the Irish Dragon says:

                tHat dosnt anser my question really He is married to her Either his parents and sister can continue to disappove or they can accept Melissa for who she is Now not what she was 8 yrs ago The choice is theres I am not saying everything is their fault because of course its not But the choice is there to move on or stay stuck I only wish this family can come together and solve the issue and move on But it will only work if they all want to.including Melissa and Joey

              • just me says:

                what he needs to do is stop thinking with his cocktail frank and stop feeding into all of the drama Mel feeds him and all of the shit she tries to stir with Tre. I’m convinced that’s part of the rift between him and his parents … I totally agree that the spouse comes first however , NO SPOUSE comes between an (italian) man and his family and he needs use some common sense and just say “enough about Tre, she’s my sister” .. but, that’s just my opinion. In an older school italian family such as theirs , no good can ever come from putting your wife before your parents. Regardless of how the Tre haters may feel about her .. there is a reason their parents are taking her side over their only son’s

              • lisa the Irish Dragon says:

                I can agree with you Do you think Tre feed her prents things negative about Melissa? Im not to start anything just asking a honest question. I was raised spouses are first but that dosnt mean parents take a back seat they become first in other ways if that makes sense. I get the whole old school thing its in more cultures then Italian you see it in Asian cultures to.

              • Bizzymammabee says:

                Did you see that snippet of the reunion where Jogo says that his father told him that Tre was going around saying Meho was a stripper. Wonder if that is true or more made up crapola.

              • lisa the Irish Dragon says:

                With this bunch its hard to tell. But I am inclined she didnt keep it secret however I dont think she spread it around like he claims. I do think she told the other Housewives to

              • just me says:

                again, and, this is my opinion ….
                It wouldn’t matter what Tre said, old school Italian parents would (more often than not) side with the son and his wife) unless there was something seriously messed up going on especially sine Tre has given them all grandaughters and Mel has managed to spit out a a grandson.

                My opinion is that they didn’t like Mel from the beginning because of her “past” and how quickly things moved with Joey and Mel. In that sort of culture, Mel is the woman you have on the side .. not the one you marry. I’m not trying to sound sexist but, that’s the way it is. Even with that, shennanigans had to have occurred for them to have sided with Tre over their son. I don’t doubt that Tre bitches about her SIL like any other SIL would but, do I think that it’s because of anything Tre has said that their parents hate Mel and Joey? Nope, not at all.

                Their behavior speaks for itself and the Gorgas might be off the boat but they aren’t idiots

              • adioslunatic says:

                @ just me While I agree with you to an extent, I have to interject that a husband, any nationality, should not be a husband or a son or a brother first. What he should be is a thoughtful, loving MAN. Things at the beginning of his and Meho’s marriage, by his account and Teresa’s, were fine. Midget and Teresa agree that things changed after his first born. Hmmmm, I wonder why? Could it be that Meho didn’t start putting the screws to Midget until she secured herself in the marriage by having a child? She knows that there will be no divorce if children are involved. Teresa has voiced that what good would it do to divorce her husband when she has children. You take the hits for the sake of the children. Period. Italians do not take kindly to their children/grandchildren being raised, God forbid, by strangers. Which, if Meho were to leave, would end up being that exact situation. There is real evolutionary reason for that, it’s not religious or based on saving face. You can see the results of children being raised in a household without the biological parents. Just look at the papers FILLED with the horror stories of children being raped, abused and even murdered by step-parents, live-in boyfriends, live-in girlfriends. It is Faaaaar more likely for these atrocities to be perpetrated by a non parent. Statics don’t lie. Not that Meho knows this but what she does know is that short of her murdering a member of his family, they would never condone a divorce.

                I don’t see Teresa’s parents taking sides. They still have interactions with their son and dil but I would bet my life it is because of the children and they know that if they rock the boat that Meho WILL continue with the Teresa and Joe are turning your parents against you crap. She thinks that she has met her goal, “fame” but if that starts to slip away it will be no holes barred.

              • adioslunatic says:

                They did accept her!!!! What do you mean???? Meho is the one who is pushing THEM away so she can keep the midget under her evil spell! You talk about “it was 8 yrs ago” when she was a slut but she still ACTS like one! You can take the stripper out of the strip club but you can’t take the strip club out of the stripper. I’m sorry but the stripper with a heart of gold crap is a gosh damn Hollywood creation. I would rather eat DIRT than sell my body, in any manner, than be a part of the sex trade in any capacity! My gosh, did you or did you not see the pictures of her simulating fellatio on her husband on a public dance floor, did you or did you not see the pictures of her dancing in nothing but a teddy, bikini etc NOW. Not 8 yrs ago, NOW.

                Listen, I know it’s extremely uncomfortable to admit when you have been deceived. Been there, trust me. You invested time and emotions in Meho and the midget and you were duped, along with many people. It does not reflect on you, it reflects on them. Shame on them, not you.

            • kel says:

              Hi Lisa I got what u were saying. I think the parents see it differently because while Joe Giudice is no angel, he isn’t doing stuff to break apart the families. His problems can be seen as their private marriage woes, Mego is attacking Tre and alienating everyone publicly, while she is running around like a 20 yr old on display on display….lol : )

              • just me says:

                I’d bet money that Mel will be onto greener pastures very soon now that the midget’s (financial) house of cards is falling down and it will all be a moot point

              • kel says:

                That’ll be very funny to see, maybe then Tre can set him up with one of her friends, and they can all be on da show, while Mego’s “career” fades into obscurity, along with her botox….

      I agree… anyone who can’t see that woman’s emotion – regardless of whether she owns her ‘part’ in this war or not – is insane. I’m sorry… but it’s pure insane to think she’s constantly faking it. Occasionally… they all act. But when it comes to her brother, parents or kids, she’s a basket case. Shame on YOU Joe Famewhorga!!

      • Aint Pittypat says:

        I don’t think she is on the verge of a nervous breakdown. IMO she is sad at the loss of her brother. While the rest of the cast either justifies, continues to attack her on any platform offered, Teresa seems to be the only one that truly recognizes that it is over and is sad but willing to put it behind her. As she expressed in her blog that while working for a charity , NephCure,she was ability to step outside herself and realize what really has value. Teresa will be fine. She deals with things head on and keeps moving forward. She held her own with Panderson .

        • Heather says:

          I agree Aint, she was poised and reflective but honest about the intense sorrow that the rift between family has created within her. I wonder what the future will bring for the RHONJ.

          • annie says:

            I agree, I felt sad for her, what a difference in her interview with AC then Jacqueline’s interview. Teresa was real and heartfelt, while Jacqueline was pretending to drink her coffee and not hear when Teresa’s name was brought up. Jacqueline was, is, so phoney, she as all over the place and Teresa held it all together. Its so funny because people think she is always ready to go off but I see it more from the others. She holds so much in, and really showed a strong side of herself to handle all that is thrown at her. Just the fact she agreed to return after being beat up by AC shows how much she can handle, and all with great class, I dare say…….lol. Funny Teresa and the word class, how far she has come.

        • shelagh5 says:

          Ain’t
          I really think that Teresa change on the apprentice show.. That is when I saw a heart in Teresa, she was just silly before, but I think she matured under the Donald’s watch, and has blossomed..

      • ImThePuppeteer says:

        Somebody please help me. I’ve watched RHNJ since the beginning. I think I know how to read their faces after all this time. I actually got a little teary after Tre’s appearance on AC today. I could tell she was upset…like she looked by the end of the Napa trip. She’s been marginalized and scolded just for being herself and trying to do the best with what she has to deal with for too long now. She’s alone against all the harpies and their idiot kids. I actually had to take a little nap after seeing her face this morning. Dear God, why do I care? Tre needs a hug. I need a hug.

        • shelagh5 says:

          Here’s a hug puppet, we will group hug Teresa.. I feel so bad for her too.. It’s not that she is angry, she is hurt.. Sad.. That breaks my heart… Anderson should be really proud of himself, he took her down again today, in his sneaky little way… He lost his only brother to suicide, you would think he would have a little more compassion..

    • Lucy94 says:

      You could feel her sadness. Especially when she was talking about Christmas last year. Now, here we are almost into October and Christmas will be right around the corner again. And every day this fued seems to be getting worse. As long as Joey is married to that wench, this relationship will never be repaired.

    • MyThreeSphynxs says:

      Yes, she does look like she is on the verge of a nervous breakdown. Sad to see. She is in a d@mned if you don’t, d@mned if you don’t predicament. She really needs to get off the show and put this behind her and go on with her life but then she will be ridiculed as a quitter. If she stays on the show she will continue to be the ridiculed.

      Sad to see what reality TV has done to all of them.

  10. maybeitsyou says:

    I don’t think Tre has anything she needs to fight about. Remember the saying “Argue with a clown you become a clown.” or maybe it was fool.? Either way, everyone watching can see where the bitterness comes from. Very unhappy people. Tre just needs to make her money & stay just as silly & good natured as she was & enjoy seeing them stew in their own juices. Can’t imagine she’d really care about these two. I mean you can pity them a little, but not really. It’s their own problems spewing out & then they get angry & frustrated. I know she had a real problem with her s/i/l but Carowhine didn’t need to step into that. Would you? Most normal , happy people either try to calm the situation down or just stay out of it. Not jump in w/both feet & get all bitter about it. Funny to watch but pitiful in a way too.

  11. ChiaPet says:

    It looked as though Tree was holding back tears, when she was talking about her brother she so wanted to cry : (

    • housewife hoe says:

      I thought she was going to lose it when she was talking about her brother. So sad.
      I disagree with Tre when she said her family was fine before coming on the show b/c, as we all know about “Sprinkle cookie-gate” & MeGo contacting Danielle. There were definitely problems but coming on the show just exacerbated them.

  12. Buttercream says:

    Hmmmm … let’s see if I can piece this together ….Anderson Cooper was on vacation with Kelly Ripa and her hubby Marc (mark?) last month – on some yacht … south of France maybe?. A few weeks ago, Kelly Rippa and her hubby Marc were on guests WWHL with Andy Dandy talking about HWNJ … hmmmm. what’s the about face for Coop on his show? Do they all share the same PR firm? Are Bravo and CNN owned by the same people???

  13. Milania says:

    What a jerk, If Teresa would have reached out to Jacqueline, She would have been accused of being fake, I mean come on Anderson were not stupid, You invited her on your show the first time was just to publicly humiliate her, And this time was to clear your name because you were being told you were rude on twitter, and your never rude just ask you right? He wasn’t sorry. Maybe Anderson didn’t use choice words on Teresa or critisize her appearance, but to me what he did was worse because he did it intentionally, But he hates bulling, whatever. She did good, but it’s so sad to see her almost in tears talking about her Brother…I will never watch his show again!! Not that i ever did.

    • Maggs says:

      Why would Teresa reach out to BubbaJax? They are not friends! Jax has made it clear this season that she does not want nor need Tre’s friendship. Sorry Bubba but you can’t have it both ways.

      • Milania says:

        Oh I know, I meant about her son having Autism and Anderson saying she should have called and yada yada yada but nomatter what she does or doesn’t do they slam her, The only thing that should be reaching out to Jacqueline is two men holding a straight jacket.

  14. lisa the Irish Dragon says:

    Ok here are my thoughts if anyone cares. I thought Teresa did well she got her thoughtas across in a Intelligent manner i found myself thinking this is the tree we need to see more of.. One thing i disagree with is she says nothing is her fault but AC is right it takes two to tango when a family breaks down like this one has everyone plays a part everyone is at fault BTDT There are no innocent victims here excpet the senior gorgas and the Kids. I am not gonna play who is at fault more but everyone is everyone did something wrong even Tre is saddens me she wont even admit that but In her defense When my family broke apart at first I didnt think i did anything wrong over time and the after the deaths of my parents I realized i played a part to. Maybe in Time Tre will see she did to.

    I still dont care for Tre but I am seeing more of a soft side to her I felt sad in the few places she seemed like she wanted to cry

    ok thats all im gonna say to Youse people

    • Maggs says:

      Hi Lisa – what do you think Tre did wrong in regards to her problems with her brother? Not being confrontational – just interested in your opinion. :-)

        Well not knowing the wole story but Its my opnion and only that is she needed to keep her thoughts on Melissa to herself It appears to me that going to tell your brother that hiswife will leave him for another man is not the way to go Jeoy was wrong to bring that convo to the show but Tre was wrong for saying it in the first place The ‘rumors” she heard she should have kpet to herself as well in telling Joey she became a rumor monger IMO I know peopel have a different opinion but In my family we siblings stayed out of each others marriages only my parents meddled and they were wrong Case in point My mom use to call my sister everyday and ask her How is Terry treating you (mind you Terry never laid a hand on my sister he was rough in his attitude much like Juicy is) my sister said he is treating me fine one day my sister got fed up and said to my mom terry came home from work beat me beat the kids is that what you want to hear are you happy now.(of cours ehe hadnt). Im not saying Tre is at fault the worse but she did play a part I hope someday she sees that and they can mend fences but as long as she sits there playing like she is miss innocent thats not going to happen

        • cns says:

          I am the same way with my brother and SIL. They have had their problems. Sometimes she was at fault or time my brother was at fault but I always stayed out of their business. My mother would meddle and then try and drag me in but I won’t take the bait. I one day told my mother to never speak negatively again to me about my brother or his wife. 20 years later they still their problems but they are still together. Silence is Golden.

        • Carol says:

          Well, I do think that the instances you pointed out are wrongs. I just think the responses, going back to the christening, were out of proportion to the crimes. If Teresa was lobbying Caroline and Jax to stick with her over the new castmates initially, and neither wanted to choose sides, they could have interacted with both factions on camera and ignored the Giudices, Gorgas and Wakiles off camera. I think that is what I would have done.

    • Hey Lisa ITA She’s being naive to think she had no role in all of this, She needs to let it go.. Whos goning to be the bigger person…hmmm. Omg She was so about to cry when talking about the situs w/Joey I was watching saying hold it together Tre..

      • housewife hoe says:

        I wish Tre would have replied with something like “I’m sure I played a role in this situation and don’t really understand how it got so out of control, I really just want my brother, SIL and niece and nephews part of my life again. If I did or said anything that offended them than I am deeply sorry.” Is that so hard???

        • Parkview says:

          Thats fine, but if memory serves, she did apologize several months ago in In Touch magazine. I get it she should speak to them personally, not in a mag, but Im not sure she hasnt. If she said something like that to Mel or Joe, would Bravo have shown us that? Given they wanted to make her the villain? I cant even watch the videos (old ipad) on this website so I should probably stfu. But you know what I mean? Maybe she has….we just havent seen it?

          • just me says:

            she has apologized .. repeatedly. Who I HAVEN”T ever heard apologize are the midget and his wife.

            That having been said, I have a feeling that Tre is a lot less to blame for things than her brother and sil. There has GOT to be a reason why an old school Italian family would barely be speaking to their son and taking their daughter’s side on issues (joe was always complaining how Tre and Joe “poisoned” his parents against him blah, blah, blah) Anyone who knows anything about how Italian families work would know he is a complete fu** up if they are taking Tre’s side on anything

            • Lisa Lisa says:

              The answer is simple. Old school Italians would never accept a woman who has worked in a place like Lookers. Whether she danced or didn’t dance, it’s a place of ill-repute and she cohorted with such low-lives by working there. It is not a respectable job. Italian parents want their children to marry up not down. Someone like Melissa is considered very low class and they don’t approve of such a person. Put that together with Joe’s beastial behavior because of her makes them doubly upset with this marriage. There is so much more I can say about this, but don’t want to clog your screens.

              • just me says:

                exactly right. I just posted something similar on another thread .. In old school Italian families, Mel is the piece you keep on the side, she is NOT mother of the children, keeper of the house material and I’m pretty sure that is the root cause of the rift between the midget and his parents and why they would take Tre and Juicy’s side in things. As much of a disgusting douche as Juicy is for the way he treats Tre, that behavior is far more readily accepted than marrying someone like Mel

              • Va Fa Napoli says:

                I agree. They r the girlfriends on the side, not the wife. I wonder if jill has ever been a dancer? :P ( alberts sidepiece)

              • RealHouseKnife says:

                ding-ding-ding-ding-ding. bingo. you have uncovered the root of the Gorga family problem. In old world culture, there is a hierarchy in gender roles and Teresa and Melissa exemplify it to the extreme. Teresa has made it clear that she was a virgin until the day she got married and this put her very high on the hierarchy, a proud show piece for her family, as a consequence, she has her parent’s unwavering support, she was model of what her brother should strive for in a wife, her in-laws value her, and she is Juicy Joe’s prized possession (although he has a weird way… per our social lenses… of showing it). She held true to her moral values so she knows her place in the hierarchy. Yes, very misogynistic way of viewing things, but true. On the other hand, Melissa already had a questionable background in terms of behavior, she moved in with Joe Gorga a month after meeting him, and there were rumors around town about her reputation. This immediately put her very low in the hierarchy and was frowned upon by the senior Gorgas, and even the Giudices I’m sure. Consequently, the Gorgas were ashamed of her and not too welcoming. So, of course, immediately came the dual roles of the pristine daughter and the putana daughter-in-law, and to Melissa this became a challenge to move up the hierarchy and compete with Teresa, whether copying her, stealing all of her brother’s attention and keeping him away from his parents/sister/niece, being passive aggressive, but none of it would ever be enough- something Melissa couldn’t tolerate because in the non-old school world, her promiscuity and manipulations were valued and got her what she wanted. Fast forward and Teresa, by fate, ends up on a show and ends up being the break out star. Melissa was green with envy and decided that she would take her down at any cost. That’s not to say that Teresa hasn’t enjoyed being the queen bee and the pride of the Gorga/Giudice clan and has probably rubbed it in more than once, but her biggest sin has been being her fabulous self. Sadly, I think it’s time for the family to move on without Joe and Melissa, and sadly, there will come a day when he is burned by Melissa and comes back crying, but until then, there’s no point in trying to get back the prodigal son. The End. (sorry for the dissertation here)

                well said

              • Antonella says:

                Best analysis to date. Mucho Mucho excellente

              • RealHouseKnife says:

                Gracias Antonella! :)

          • housewife hoe says:

            When I said I wished she would have apologized or taken some responsibility, I meant in response to Anderson Coopers question “do you feel you should take some responsibility for this feud” or whatever he said. Believe me, I know she has apologized in the mag and on the show but to simply say again, on Anderson Cooper, would have been great and showed that she is above all this nonsense and has grown as a person.

            • just me says:

              personally, I’m happy she didn’t. She apologized at the outset, repeatedly… in print and on the show and wanted to put the past in the past.
              If THEY chose not to accept it and move on and to continue the back stabbing, bickering and setting her up for some air time, IMO, she is not responsible for the feud any longer. Her responsibility ended a season or two ago

              • adioslunatic says:

                @just me The only thing that would have satisfied these witches would be if Teresa would have drawn a warm bath and slit her wrist like the scene from The Godfather.

              • just me says:

                Sadly, I believe you are correct. My hope for Tre is that she get away from Bravo and those witches and get a show on another channel which doesn’t make Mandy or Bravo one red cent

              • adioslunatic says:

                What I think would be fun is a cooking show with snippets of the girls and juicy. A kind of reality/cooking show hybrid.

              • just me says:

                there are so many ways they could go .. mamma bringing home the bacon AND frying it in the pan .. The only problem I see is that viewers tune into drama and craziness over anything else. How else can you explain the number of (presumably) educated above the 3rd grade adults who watch “honey boo boo” or whatever that wretched show is? America seems to like a train wreck.

                Although, the K’s from what little I’ve seen, seem to have maintained their popularity without the over the top Drama …. I hope for the same for Tre

    • duh says:

      In this case, Doncaro, Mego and Jax just went wild green with envy and joined forces in their attacks on Teresa. Just what is she supposed to do with this? It takes two to fight? Really? Teresa tried to ignore the attacks and move on until even she knew that was not what they wanted. They wanted to bring her down. She chose not to let them but focus on making $ for her family and take care of the girls. She does not control those freaks but was forced thru the producers to continue to be with them. The producers stabbed her in the back time and again. She kept on focusing. She has burned the candle at both ends for so long she must the completely zapped. Bravo is evil to use people like this. You don’t see the other reality shows (not on Bravo) like Survivor, or even MTV destroy their cast and families. Time for those who care to boycott or do whatever we can to influence a change.

    • shelagh5 says:

      We do care Lisa..
      You are a straight shooter, and I respect that in you… I actually agree with what you said.. My heart broke for her today… I think her brother is a loser, but I am sure there is more to it then just a family spat..

  15. JD says:

    When it comes to Caroline and Jac i do believe that Tree did not nothing…BUT when it comes to her family…YES there are things she did, she probably thought was small, but they thought was grand. Sometimes it’s good to say I’M SORRY…even if you don’t mean it, in order to maintain peace. Melissa and Joe seems to be the kind of people, that want’s to be involve in everything Tree does, and she was placed on the show, they felt excluded, specially when Teresa became known and started making money.

    • Aint Pittypat says:

      IMo . She will never win with Melissa. Teresa has apologized but she also sticks to her principles. there is a very unhealthy element in her relationship with Teresa. When Teresa first mentioned the constant copykatting by Mel? My thoughts were well someone is a DIVA! Now after seeing that Teresa was telling the truth about that and a few other things I am convinced that much of what Teresa has mentioned will continue to be revealed regarding her SIL and Bro.

      • lisa the Irish Dragon says:

        Since no one will fess up why caroline is so mad at Tre I cant a side
        again there are always 3 sides to a story side A side B and the truth

        • Neet222 says:

          Tre won the Meatball Contest :)

        • cns says:

          Caroline is not mad about the cookbook comment or the magazine articles. The producers have to stir up drama through gossip and lies. The producers lie to them all about what others have said about eash other. Because the castmates believe the lies told to them they now hate each other. Kind of sad. If anyone of them were interested in getting to the truth that’s all they have to do is sit down privately and have a mature discussion. With this group that may never happen.

          • just me says:

            Caroline is angry because she always thought SHE would be the break out star .. the one with the books on the best seller list and the products selling well and that her children would be able to ride her coat tails to their chose careers. In my eyes, it’s that simple .. nothing more and nothing less.

            When Tre was the one who was losing her house and possessions and was “down”, Caroline could tsk, tsk and shake her head at her “shame”. Now that Tre’s taken the hand that life dealt her and persevered, she can’t handle it . I honestly thing she hates Tre because she believes Tre has “taken” opportunities which should have been hers

            • lisa the Irish Dragon says:

              That does make sense, Tre has done well for herself no doubt

              • missingrealityused2bjoan says:

                I agree…jealousy. All that hype about wait and see and we’d all understand and see Tre for what she is…nada.

            • kel says:

              That’s exactly it, just me, but I wish Tre could see that and not be so hurt. I guess now maybe she does, but it killed me to watch her sit there and let Caro abuse her in Napa, after Tre and Joe tried to be friendly.

        • Aint Pittypat says:

          IMO , it was the CA casting. Big Mamma wanted that gig for precious Prince Albie.

          • Carol says:

            Has the Donald ever had a law school dropout, who is famous only for that, on CA before?

            • Aint Pittypat says:

              IMO Albie has a degree of celebrity from RHONJ and also Millionaire Matchmaker. I’m sure doting Mommy envisioned Prince Albie as the perfect candidate just as she thought he was dating material for Alexa Joel.

              • CJ says:

                Aint, you know Chuckie was just heart broken that a hook up with Alexa didn’t work out.

                That entire evening Chuckie was crooking her neck trying to get Christie’s attention. It was comical watching Christie avoid her.

      • fabelloonie says:

        @Aint- ITA.

  16. nancyadopt says:

    i think Tre means she has not done anything that Caroline and Jaq and Melissa accuse her of. I have seen her say that she should have not lost her temper, etc. But I cannot think of one thing she has done that is terrible that she needs to apologize for actually except losing her temper

    • Aint Pittypat says:

      The other women act as if she is Charles Manson. They desperately need a reality check. Jax, Carowhine MeHo and Katfish are the equivalent of PT from RHONY. The outbursts, the paranoia, the shaming……Curious if Sonja or Ramona could stand alone with 4 PT level HW?

  17. thillygirl says:

    Anderson was “sad” that he might have come across as rude. He only spoke about HIMSELF. He never, not once, apologized to or about Teresa. And again, he kept interrupting her answers and steering her in a different direction, never letting her finish her thought. As a host, he should allow for those like Teresa who struggle to express their thoughts and emotions. Not everyone, myself included, are skilled at verbal expression. I fear for T in the reunion series. Between her verbal difficulties and the vile editing that is sure to occur, she is not going to come out ahead.

  18. Nataliana says:

    People keep saying that Teresa needs to own up for her own actions but what has she really done? Every mean thing she has said to the cast has been in result of them coming at her first. The whole issue with Caroline is over a joke in her cookbook …a joke that Caroline even used to say herself.

    But one thing i wish teresa would do is get someone who can help her with public speaking. Shes not quick on her feet. I feel like Teresa could have shut down so many people/cast/family members if she just had some public speaking practice!

  19. Nataliana says:

    I think the only thing Teresa probably did wrong with her brother is talk bad about Melissa.
    There are things that only the Gorga family knows about Melissa (Tre & Joe’s parents dont even like Melissa!)…Its like if your brother brought home a girl that was rumored to be a gold digger, stripper and etc you would probably be in his ear telling him to drop her too!

    Teresa said that Melissa copied off her and this i do believe. Before Melissa married into money with Joe Gorga she looked a hot mess! After their marriage and kids she became a Teresa clone.

    • Aint Pittypat says:

      IIRC Joe began telling Teresa how Juicy was cheating on her/rumors were that Joey was cheating???? Tre played tot for tat and made the statement about his wife. Maybe not a mature decision on her part.

  20. Sue says:

    I just need to point something out here that is really starting to make sense to me now. My niece works in the Hamptons every summer doing everything from waitressing, hosting, housekeeping ect.., anyway, she was telling the group of us who watch the housewives and other Bravo and various reality shows that when her and her friends encounter some of these celebs talking about theirs shows and the people on them she said it always reminds them of the movie “Dinner for Schmucks”. She said these celebs, and yes, Miss “all sweet and sunshine” Kelly Ripa included act like they are sooo far above everyone else. This whole jersey thing got me thinking cause It hit so hard at a real family and it WAS staged to hurt so cohen could get ratings and his friends who are invested could make money. I hope I’m making sense here, cause I just have this image in my head of Andy, Kelly ripa and her husband, that goofball whos married to John Stamos’s ex-wife, who I forget his name, but I just picture all of them sitting there making fun of these people like the honey boo-boo crew who ok may not have the best manners (cause of course that is what the Bravo cameras are catching and we all know their famous editing practices) but I really see the love and caring in this family and who wouldnt try to earn some money in these times. I’m sure none of these reality people sign on thinking they are going to have done to them what Cohen/Bravo has been doing to many, but when it comes to Nj Housewives Cohen has stooped to an all new low and the reason it sickened many of us and it was so hard to watch is because we knew that there was foul play going on and that a “real family” with “real life” problems were being targeted and hurt in a very vicious way all by Bravos producers editing and camera manipulation.
    Wow, I know I babbled and I hope I made some sort of sense in the point I was trying to convey. I guess all Andy/Bravo better understand is, IF THEY DID NOT HAVE THE VIEWERS THEY WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO SIT IN THEIR LAVISH HAMPTON VACATION HOMES ABLE TO LAUGH AND MAKE FUN OF ANYONE!!!!

    • stan says:

      RIGHT ON SUE!!!!! I think Andy renewed the Miami houswives so he could sell puffy pillows with the likeness of MAMA ELSA’s face for the holidays. I’m sure they make fun of their disfunctional casts.

      • shelagh5 says:

        How sad, he actually gets off on saying he likes mama Elsa, while laughing all the way to the bank… Why doesn’t mama Elsa’s daughter see that… I would never allow someone to make money on my mom, if I still had her… Rip mom, I wouldn’t ..

  21. stan says:

    MEGO is behind the ruin of the family. If you see her when she’s with her music “producers” She is all about the fame. She’d leave “perpetually poison filled little Joe” if a P Diddy-like character promised her the moon and had a large paycheck waiting for her. Teresa is no saint but she was on the show first and I’m sure if the Gorgas weren’t related to her – they wouldn’t be on the show.

    • Neet222 says:

      I always had a feeling Joe knew that and that’s why he didn’t want her to sign with a recording agency. He said he’d handle it himself. I hope she does leave him and then I would love to see Tre give him the boot also….but she won’t…sigh.

      • Bizzymammabee says:

        Jogo only wanted to be her sole producer for two reasons 1) that is how he was going to keep the wench tied to him and not laying up under someone else trying to climb that ladder and 2) because he knows he has to try and shield her from the reality of the fact that she can’t sing or dance a lick. What Label in their right mind would want to put money into getting this chick recorded, it would be a total losing situation for them. First they layout out however much money which they will never recoup because other than her sisters and mother who the hell is going to buy her totally autotuned music. The Label makes a huge amount of money on residuals and royalties. In her case what would that give them but a big old fat goose egg.

      • shelagh5 says:

        She won’t meet, she truly loves her brother, he just doesn’t care… She would forgive him…. I say Melissa will not be married to Joey forever…IMO.

        • adioslunatic says:

          @ shelag5 She’s going to ditch the midget and go marry Cat Rodriguez in Cali and probably try to weasel her way onto RHOBH and you KNOW Bravo will eat that up with a spoon!

          • shelagh5 says:

            You are so right adios, it’s right up Andy and Melissa’s alley.. You know they love to love… Or lust to lust, or just suck..Andy likes Melissa cuz she likes playing gay…

            • adioslunatic says:

              If I were gay I would be embarrassed to be portrayed the way Bravo portray gays. All I’ve learned from Bravo about the gay lifestyle is that they are not happy if they are not being horrible to someone or judging someone all the while claiming they are being persecuted and judged. I don’t give a rat’s patooty if you’re gay, bi, heterosexual, asexual etc. I DO, however, care if you are a gossiping, materialistic, non caring POS.

            • adioslunatic says:

              Also, I don’t think Mel is playing gay, I think it’s her true self. She almost recoils when her husband touches her. I think a man was just a quicker way to money…

              • just me says:

                totally agree. Her natural inclination is to recoil any time he gets near her until she remembers who pays the credit card bills and affords her “a life most girls can only dream of”

                When everyone was talking about what new skeletons were going to come out of her closet, my first thought was her sexual past (and/or cocaine use)

              • adioslunatic says:

                It already has come out, her high school lover gave an interview to one of the gossip mags, The Enquirer I believe. And yet, she remains above the fray. I don’t care if she is but if she doesn’t identify herself as bi or gay that is a LIE. I only care about truth.

              • just me says:

                I missed that memo … the only info outside of the shows I get is from this blog so, unless I happen to be on here, I’m “out of the loop”

                Ms SH posted it just the other day, try a search. It sounds pretty legit and if it weren’t true I, if it were me, would be suing the pants off of them.

              • just me says:

                I trust ya … My guess is she prefers women given the way she cringes any time the midget comes near her and her sexuality and concern over being “sexy” towards men is over done . That having been said, I wouldn’t put it past her to pay a friend to “leak” the story to get her some extra press

              • shelagh5 says:

                She can not stand that man touching her… You are right.. I have said it before… I know gay people, they do not want to be known as gay… They just want to be known as humans, that’s it.. But I wouldn’t want that midget to touch me either… He is a pig… She is his piglet… LoL..

              • just me says:

                I’m the same way about PDA so I might buy that except for scenes where she’s sitting, 1/2 dressed and asking him to rub lotion on her legs .. or prancing around 1/2 naked posing for him acting like it’s unintentional .. she knows exactly what she’s doing.

              • adioslunatic says:

        Yep. Remember her talking about which shoes to waer to meet those “record execs” bc she had to make sure she looked sexy for them? I sure do.

  22. cns says:

    I think the problem is that Teresa never thought that Melissa was good enough for her brother. She admitted openly that she thought Melissa was a gold-digger from the start which means that there was possibly animosity for the last 8 years. IMO, I believe that Teresa hated Melissa guts from day one but I don’t believe Teresa was involved with the PFS fiasco. It is breaking her heart that a lot of people think that she is responsible.

    • nancyadopt says:

      i don’t think Theresa thought Melissa was the optimum SIL, but Theresa is about not having her parents upset, so I think that she put that aside to keep a civil relationship.

  23. Pat Johnson says:

    What could be the problem here: could it be they are all on a t.v. show that they claim is tearing their family apart while taking it to blogsites, Twitter, t.v. interviews, magazine spreads, etc. to complain about what is happening in their lives? Who is holding the gun to their heads?

    Then what could be the solution to all this weeping and gnashing of teeth then to get off the t.v. instead of trying to rationalize why all this is happening? Wouldn’t that make sense and why has no interviewer thought to put that question to any of them?

    What stands out for me is how unprotected those kids are from all the trash talk and shady publicity their parents subject them to while they continue to run their mouths and sell products and point fingers of who is to blame for the family break ups.

    They are all to blame quite frankly, and there is not one “innocent” in this crowd outside these little kids who deserve better than watching their parents behave like shrieking animals.

  24. Neet222 says:

    I can’t wait to see what happens when the reunion is over and has died down. Whatever will Jax and MeHo have to twitter about then? Who’s gonna want to interview them? Oh Rhett, what shall they do?? Frankly my dear……..

    • Aint Pittypat says:

      How will any of them evah, evah, get one of those magazine covers they so obviously covet. Shame on Teresa selling her story to magazines gasp! She certainly got kicked in the teeth over them and yet the entire crew is now..PICK Me, Pick me!!!! They are irrelevant without Teresa.

      • lisa the Irish Dragon says:

        Frankly I dont care if she is on 10000 magazines she does a interview and get paid Own up to it its nothing to be shameful of
        I dont think she sells stories however But answering questions is giving a interview.

        • Va Fa Napoli says:

          i totally agree, i think she should own the payment also. If she gets paid for an interview, than so be it. Doesnt mean i would think shes putting out all the negative things about the others. Maybe negative about herself, i can believe, to gain viewership. Just own it tre, sometimes it looks like you r lying about it. We would respect u that much more. But i will say she is a smart woman and there must be a reason she doesnt admit it. Maybe she is contractually not allowed to admit? Just like when jax was beatin her down about the backruptcy questions, tre didnt answer alot because her lawyer instructed her to keep quiet. I think she can be pretty smart sometimes.

      • ImThePuppeteer says:

        RIGHT! I know that I for one will watch the reunion. I will cheer with glee everytime Teresa says something snotty those backstabbing shrews. I won’t even care if she hits below the belt. I hope Juicy goes for the heart when he gets into it with SloJoe. Everytime MeHo and Katfish roll their eyes, I will put a hex on them. I’ll sit here, sipping my vino (Fabelinni makes me burp), and take comfort that Jax, DonCaro, and her titty-babies won’t be back next season. As Teresa says, I”M SERIOUS!

  25. Jersey Chicklet says:

    FIRST OFF: IN THE ABOVE VIDEO, GO TO 6 MINS and 13 sec’s INTO IT. Look at his face when Teresa said “They kept coming at me for the magazine thing,remember?” He had no clue what she was talking a bout.

    He got caught not knowing a bloody thing about the show! He just interviewed RHONJ cos it’s a popular show at the moment and the reunion is this Sunday.

    IN OTHER WORDS, ANDERSON JUMPED ON THE BAND WAGON, BUT AS JOURNALIST/TALK SHOW HOST, HE STINKS. HE DID NOT DO HIS HOMEWORK. WE COULD HAVE INTERVIEWED TERESA OR ANY HW BETTER THAN HIM!

    And what’s up with the “anderson live chat” on the screen while she’s talking. It was a live comment that was bored with show. That’s a rude feature to the show!

    I do believe he did try to save grace and treated her better today, but still so obvious the guy never watched the show in it’s entirety or any part of it for that matter.

    He shouldn’t have a guest on when he knows squat about them!

    • Candace says:

      Yep, Chicklet, he doesn’t watch the show and didn’t know what he was talking about. You’re correct.

      • just me says:

        I may be the only one but, I got the impression that he was fed specific bullet points to bring up. He seemed to know generalizations or specific incidents but was over all clueless . In the day of the quickie google search, going in that unprepared is inexcusable. In my opinion, they thought they would throw out a few things and she’d be so intimidated by him that she’d fold or go ballistic

        • Jersey Chicklet says:

          To just me, Great comment and right on the money!

          You’re said perfectly! That is exactly what happened.

  26. Wesley!!! says:

    Anderson was totally un-professional yesterday and he din’t expect to get the heat but like Ms. SH said, this was his redemption interview and before he went off on Tree he should watch the entire fourth season and let the cards take it’s place before he judged.

  27. Debbie from Balto. says:

    Maybe I didn’t watch the same show as everyone else but I definitely can read between the lines. Tre specified that she had not talked to her brother for a year before they came onto the show … She is one person I do not feel sorry for .. she’s in a loveless married, children that have no manners (especially for being Italian) and now no friends because she did it to herself. I agree with AC yesterday – she acts like she is 12 years old all the time … She needs to get herself together and make her own way and leave her old man behind – take the girls and run …

    • Jersey Chicklet says:

      IT WAS AFTER JOE GORGA SNUCK ONTO THE SHOW, APPROX 6 MONTHS AFTER, THAT THEY STOPPED TALKING.

      Not before.

    • Jersey Chicklet says:

      TERESA HAS A BOAT LOAD OF FRIENDS IN HER PERSONAL LIFE AWAY FROM THE SHOW.

      DINA WAS TEREA ORIGINAL FRIEND FROM THE BEGINNING OF THE SHOW. CAROLINE WAS ONLY FAMILY TO DINA AND NOT TERESA’S FRIEND. NEITHER WAS DANIELLE STAUB. HER REAL LIFE PERSONAL FRIENDS ARE NOT ON THE SHOW.

      HER KIDS DO HAVE MANNERS AND ARE POLITE. MANY, MANY TIMES I’VE SEEN SCENES WITH HER GIRLS HUGGING EACH OTHER AND HANGING OVER EACH OTHER LOVINGLY. REMEBER THAT BRAVO ONLY TAKES 1 to 2 MIN’S OF THE KIDS AND THOSE MIN’S ARE NOT GOING TO BE THEM HANGING OUT WATCHING TV TOGETHER..BRAVO ALSO GOT CAUGHT DOING OVER VOICE ON THE KIDS LAST WEEK. WHICH MEANS THEY MILANIA IS NOT SAYING THOSE THINGS THEY WANT US TO BELEIVE.

      ANDERSON CUT TERESA OFF WHEN SHE WAS TRYING TO EXPLAIN WHY SHE INSULTED CAROLINE. IF HE HAD LISTNED, INSTEAD OF BERATING HER WITH THAT 12 YR OLD COMMENT, THEN HE WOULD HAVE UNDERSTOOD A SCENE FROM A CLIP THAT HE DID NOT WATCH IN IT’S ENTIRETY.

      NO OFFENSE, BUT FROM UR COMMENTS, I DON’T BELIEVE YOU WATCHED THE SHOW IN IT’S ENTIRETY EITHER AND IT’S EASY TO GET CONFUSED IF U HAVEN’T.

      famewhorgas is a link on this page, upper right side, and it explains what the producers and other cast did to manipuliate the show…. I found it to be an excellent source when you comment on a blog.

          Lisa I am having problems here as my check spelling doohiky isnt working. And I have noticed that other people who normaly dont have spelling isues are misspelling also. Maybe speaking in caps is a problem as well as puncuation. What do you think the problem is? Is it that Damn Tres fault?…lolol On a serious note do you have any idea whats happening?

          • lisa the Irish Dragon says:

    • Antonella says:

      Debbie do you honestly think that the loss of Jac & Caroline as “friends” is such a bad thing?

    • adioslunatic says:

      @ Debbie from Balto. Teresa did NOT make that claim, her SIL did and Teresa was floored and denied it. You need to read framewhorgas, you’ll find the link on this page in the upper left hand corner.

    • ImThePuppeteer says:

      Debbie – wrote, “read between the lines…”. Are you really CarolineManzo? If I read that phrase one more time, I may go krazy.

  28. Mattie says:

    It bothered me how the introduction to the interview was how he spent all day thinking if HE came off as rude, because HE does not want to be rude, HE couldn’t sleep or whatever because people thought he was rude. It was like how he made Teresa feel was an afterthought. Anyway, I really wonder if the first “interview” made some people more sympathetic towards her because of how she was treated.

    Jacqueline said everyone knew about Nicholas, and like Teresa said, she was loyal and didn’t say anything. Jacqueline’s definition of friendship seems to be, you tell your friends every negative thing in your life and they’re supposed to hold your hand and cry with you. I think Teresa is more the kind of friend who acknowledges that she doesn’t have the best situation, knows you have your personal issues, but would rather do something fun so the two can laugh and smile together. I think that is what Dina meant that their relationship is “light” and they “don’t go too deep.” I think the people that Teresa really opens up to the most are her husband, and her parents. It’s totally okay, you just can’t be friends with the kind of person that lays all of their problems out there for you to soak in a la Jax.

  29. Viewer1023 says:

    “We taped for 10 hours. From 10AM to 10PM.” She’s such an idiot. She lies about everything, too. AC knows that. Why did he feel compelled to give her another shot?

    • Heather says:

      Many people are not able to calculate either time intervals or anything quickly on the spot and Caroline had this to say:

      In her tweet, she says they filmed the reunion less than 10 hours after the PFS was taped. The fact that Teresa did not correctly assess how many hours pass between 10am- 10pm does not automatically reveal that a) she must be an idiot b) she lies about everything or c) have anything to do with AC inviting her back.

      She is guilty here of literally nothing other than being off by two hours. Her point was they filmed back to back for a very long time and Caroline confirms that. If you told someone that Raleigh was the capital of Virginia then by your logic, would you be a liar or just wrong? If you want to demonstrate that Teresa is not the sharpest tool in the shed then you have much richer material than that to dig through.

      Teresa made a factual mistake that is easily corrected and doesn’t detract from her overall point. I felt the same way when I read comments criticizing Melissa’s natural pronunciation of “admit”- it’s a petty, irrelevant non-issue.

    • Antonella says:

      My church has midnight mass at Christmas at 11pm. I will tell the priest he’s an “idiot” and “lying” next time we go. When you are given a segment on a talk show, I don’t think you can sit there and say, we filmed from 10 to 1, broke for lunch, then 2 to 6 broke for dinner, then 7 to 10. Thus, 10 hours of taping

  30. Viewer1023 says:

    Just to clarify, 10AM to 10PM is 12 hours . . .

    • nancyadopt says:

      you are really stretching here. That is not a lie..That is just Theresa. She doesn’t know how to add hours. This is exactly what Jaqueline and Caroline would do. Go on 10 talk shows right now and Twitter outting Theresa for the horrible lie she just told. Theresa is just not smart. She doesn’t realize 10-10 is 12 hours. Geeze giveme a break Viewer.

      • Aint Pittypat says:

        Wouldn’t they be allowed breaks for lunch and dinner? Make-up and hair re-touched?

        • lisa the Irish Dragon says:

          Thats a simple mistake I have even made it when I worked 12 shifts

          • cns says:

            Even thought I am not a fan, I wil throw Teresa a bone here. She used hyperbole in her comment. It’s not uncommon for people to use hyperbol from time to time. I say this with kindess, no malice here.

    • Hersandra says:

      Good grief! When was the last time you did anything from 10AM to 10PM without taking a break to at least eat and use the restroom?

      • just me says:

        Actually, I have done races (running) where you are going from 10-14 hours .. you eat and hydrate on the run and, if there’s one available, you make a quick trip to the porta potty , if not, pop and squat on the side of the road with the baby wipe that’s tucked in your hydration belt

        I’ve also worked non stop going from client to client to client eating on the run with a quick head call in their powder room. It’s easy to lose track of time

        Thinking folks are stretching at calling Tre a liar for losing track of time or not being able to add when we all know she’s not the sharpest knife in the drawer

        • Hersandra says:

          Issue is too stupid to even respond. Antonella, let me know what your priest says when you call him a liar or idiot.

          • just me says:

            hey, you asked if anyone has ever worked 10 hours without going to the bathroom or taking a lunch break , I answered and now you call me stupid? Geeze, you are the one who asked , sorry that the answer was yes, it’s possible to screw up times because you are focused on what you are doing or to eat on the run

            • lisa the Irish Dragon says:

              I remember when i worked 12 hr nights there were days i mixed time up and days

            I will let you know Hersandra!

  31. Jersey Chicklet says:

    What’s up that blogger?

    Teresa is not in or never has been in a TWEETER WAR! Jac Laurita, Bonnie Grippe…etc, but not Teresa!

    Again, Anderson hasn’t the faintest clue what has been going on and he brings in a No Name blogger to attest that there’s a twitter war, WHICH TERESA GIUDICE HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH!

    You wanna know why Anderson brought in the BLOGGER? IT’S COS ANDERSON GOT HIS ASS CHEWED OFF IN TWITTER LAND YESTERDAY! And yet he birngs a blogger, WHY? To defend Cooper? I don’t like Anderson anymore. Can’t take him serious. FLUFF IS WHAT HIS IS ALL ABOUT..NO FACTS, NO RESEARCH…

    Make you realize how contrived these talks shows are!

  32. Silly Me Posting about Nonsense says:

    I find that the editing and manipulation of the producers to aggravate a situation horrendous. Dina tweeted that during her little segment that what she said was taken out of context and was altogether in a different conversation.about Joe. This show is driven by producers and editors. It’s not reality as we see it on TV. The setup was probably all producer driven which is a shame. They added fuel to the fire and created a barn burning. Do they not remember the suicide provoked by the reality show in the west coast? You don’t mess with people’s lives like this. I do realize; however, that the “actors” put all of the drama out there too. It’s kind of like one upping the other and trying to bring people down.

    Why these people endure this, I don’t know. It has to be the fame and the possible money that can be made. Honestly, if that is their motive…they really aren’t worth watching! Money, greed, fame, jealousy….that’s all I see in these reality shows….except for Honey Boo Boo! LOL

    • Jersey Chicklet says:

      To Silly Me Posting About Nonsense, I agree, it is horrnedous.

      Famewhorgas is a site that has info on the Producers and what their hand in all of this is. And it’s a very big hand. The site’s link is on SH, upper right side of this screen is where you’ll find.

      They updated it today with precise details of how the Producers run the direction of the show and what they do do to get the cast to do it for them. Excellent info!

  33. DDisher says:

    Oh geez, I haven’t read all the comments yet, but, did anyone else call Anderson out for lying? When Tre said they all jumped on her for magazine articles and ask Anderson, “Remember that?” He said, no, he didn’t see any of that. Later he asks her about the magazine articles and even says ‘You’re husband Joe said something about it on the show.” So, he did see it. He knew what she was talking about. That is so weird and wrong. What’s wrong with Anderson Cooper? Is he sleeping with cross eyed Mandy??

    • shelagh5 says:

      Good catch DD, I never caught that… But I do believe that cooper & Cohan are more then friends… They do everything together… I lost respect for the cooper when he was a guest on the wwhl show…. And he also worships Cathy, that red headed comic. Gifford….. I think they got crushes on each other, not lustful … Anyways, I think he is trying to hard… You don’t have to try to be cool, you just are!,

    • Sugarbombs says:

      YES! Also, in the very begining he states that after ‘awhile’ he stopped watching the show and that is was too stressful and then like less than a minute later he starts talking about how he watched when they were in Napa….that was towards the end of the season.

  34. maybeitsyou says:

    The guy that killed himself was in some sort of serious debt. Also never would step out of the small room that houses clothes – you know he was lying about who he was according to those who knew him. I think he was just a sad person in general. His ex said he basically abused her , I’m guessing the lie he was living & the depression it caused is why he did what he did. Really doubt it had anything to do with the show.

    • nancyadopt says:

      please don’t get into the Shana Taylor Huges Ford Armstrong saga without reading the SH site. You are so lost with that whole post. Please go back and read the website by doing a search. The abuse was fabricated and his ex wife was grifting people saying she was a Ford and spending all his money. He was not blameless though either, but Bravo hired a scammy doctor to hold unrealistic counseling sessions to set him up to make him seem like he was abusing Taylor, when it was all but proven it was orchestrated by Taylor to make her relevant on the show. Go back and do your research, or you will have several hundred posters going crazy about Taylor/ shana, Ford Hughes Armstrong

  35. For someone who says he did not watch RHNJ, Anderson sure knew a lot about the show. It was as f he was the ghost of Jacqueline during the interview. What does he care if Teresa got paid or not for the magazines? He is obviously in bed with Andy Cohen, and I think Anderson is on top with this relationship the bottom man in their relationship. He seems to take in whatever Andy feeds him.

    • adioslunatic says:

      If I was Teresa I would have asked AC if he ever paid or gotten paid for doing an interview…he’s been on both ends and would know, right? I don’t understand why Teresa hasn’t done that yet. The only instances I have heard of a big celebrity getting paid is if they give a magazine exclusive rights for PICTURES e.g. births and weddings. Otherwise they only thing big celebrities get is the publicity, why would they be paying a housewife and not Angelina Jolie?

      • lisa the Irish Dragon says:

        I doubt ANgelina Jolie cooperates with the stories written about her nor does she pose for magazine covers You will notice those of the Jolie-pitts are paparazzi shots not posed.
        Tre cooperates poses for pictures answers quesions then she gets paid

        • CJ says:

          The Jolie/Pitt’s had been paid enormous sums for the first pictures of their birth children. They have said that the money is donated to charity. Since they are doing pretty well for themselves, I would guess that to be the case.

          • lisa the Irish Dragon says:

            That is true People paid out the Nose for those

  36. TV Junkie says:

    Anderson, Andy and Kelly Ripa and her husband all went on vacation together in Croatia.
    I wonder if they spent their vacation obsessing over Teresa and plotting to bully against her. I’m thinking that would be a big fat YES.

    • imreal says:

      As we shall see in the next post, it is this threat of chastisement which is symbolised by the angel with the flaming sword in the Third Secret of Fatima, who is halted through the intercession of the Virgin Mary to allow for a period of reconciliation. By examining its many allusions to passages in the Old Testament, we can gain a better sense of the true spiritual depth of the Third Secret. For now, it will suffice to conclude that the prophecy of the Second Secret was only partially fulfilled in the appearance of the aurora borealis of 1938. It seems that this event was a foreshadowing of things to come, and we should perhaps expect the ultimate fulfilment of this prophecy in the “Great Sign” that is still to arrive in the future. It is this sign that will announce the coming of the persecution of the Church and the Holy Father himself during the final tribulation, whilst also calling those who have fallen away from the faith into accepting a state of repentance:

      When you see a night illumined by an unknown light, know that this is the great sign given you by God that he is about to punish the world for its crimes, by means of war, famine, and persecutions of the Church and of the Holy Father…

  39. donewithbravo says:

    Here’s my take on the interview:
    *I lost my respect for Anderson Cooper. He’s now in the same group (IMO) as Dr. No-socks and Dr. Phil and Dr. Drew.
    *I can’t stand the way Teresa reflects on her past with her brother as being so perfect. First she said they always got along until they came on the show. Then she said they got along until his baby’s Christening. Then she said they got along until he married Melissa. Then she said they got along until Melissa had babies. WHICH IS IT?????????????????? My belief is that they always had a violitile relationship and that she fears him and wants to calm him down and quiet him because he has an outrageous temper (even worse than her husband’s!.
    *I DO feel sorry for Teresa. The way she’s treated by Bravo and Andy, sucks. But she knows it’s all part of the game, right? She probably laughs in the background right along with them, all the way to the bank.
    TERESA: IF THIS IS SO HORRIBLE AND DRAINING AND UPSETTING TO YOU, ****QUIT****. I’m sick of this merry-go-round and none of these jackasses deserve ALL of the time and attention we’re giving them. It only hikes their ratings and sells their shit more. Ugh!

  40. donewithbravo says:

    P.S.: As far as Tree looking so sad and broken over her brother (and the “loss” of their relationship): let’s get over it. It’s been OVER a year. If my brother DARED to speak to me with such disrespect, he’d be quickly ignored by me. Yup, I’d feel sad for a bit, but I’d feel more sad for him for having anger issues and being an idiot. I’m not buying it. She drags this crap up constantly. Get over it. He sucks. He’s got mental issues. It’ll never be sunshine and rainbows with him. Stop talking about him. (oops, that would mean no more storyline, huh?)

    • just me says:

      are you Italian?
      I won’t disagree with the fact that most of what we see is scripted however, IMO, it’s not the words that come out of her mouth that cause me to come to the conclusion that she is heart broken over the events with her brother, it’s the visible pain in her eyes. She’s not that talented an actress .

      Admittedly, I don’t have every scene from every show memorized however, I also don’t really remember her and Joe’s issues being the majority of the story line for this season as opposed to stripper gate, phone gate, book comment gate, forgot to mention my cousin in my toast gate and any other contrived reason for them to be angry with her

      • donewithbravo says:

        Yes, I’m 100% Italian. Why?? Family DOES actually mean a lot to me, but we don’t put up with crap, nor do we speak harshly to each other.

        • just me says:

          I was just curious because that’s the way a LOT of older school italians are .. revere the sons, period. … And, yes, I’m 100 % Italian with all 4 of my great grand parents coming straight off the proverbial boat. I never saw it on the maternal side of the family because my grandfather had 3 daughters and a granddaughter but, that’s the way the paternal side of the family was . Which is why I haven’t spoken to my father or one of my brothers since the early 90s

          • donewithbravo says:

            I have closer generations “off the boat”, but I do agree about sons being special, HOWEVER, in *my* family, it’s much more important for there to be peace amongst all of the siblings. If it can’t be worked out, then it shouldn’t be constantly talked about. I’m having a rift with 1 sister (I have 5 siblings) and after much attempt at working it out, I’m done. I refuse to constantly speak about it, nor do I say anything negative to my parents about it. If they heard me constantly say, “I miss my sister… I miss how close we were……”, it would make them sad. She needs to just get over it.

            • just me says:

              point taken. I guess not everyone can just as easily dismiss their siblings .. particularly when they only have 1

              • donewithbravo says:

                It’s never easy and I’d never give up quickly. There should be intervention and input, but when you realize things won’t change and the rest of the family is getting upset hearing about it, you have to step back. That’s what she should do.

              • Bullie says:

                Or maybe Joe Gorga and his wife should have not stepped in. It seems to me that even if there was some petty cookie fight, Teresa didn’t take it seriously enough to go behind Melissa’s back and attempt to sabotage her livelihood and discredit her character on a national level. Melissa did that by talking to Danielle, ya know? And Joe Gorga happily went along with it.

                That is probably why the elder Gorgas don’t care for Joe’s lame excuses, because Joe lets Melissa be the man of their house.

              • donewithbravo says:

                Bullie: If Joe Gorga stood behind his wife while she contacted Danielle to “take his sister down”, then, how close could he have actually been to his sister? My guess is that they had issues stemming far back. Why doesn’t Tree portray it that way?? I also doubt that it was just Melissa coming between Tree and her brother. They just both seem very unhappy together. Too much anger and violence there.

              • Bullie says:

                i don’t think he did it for lack of closeness to Tre, I think he did it because he is really unintelligent and felt slighted that Teresa never filmed with him or his wife enough to get them real legitimate airtime. I think he, like Melissa, was jealous of the fame and dumb enough to sell his family out to obtain it.

              • donewithbravo says:

                I think you’re right, Bullie–the film time means more to them that family. They all lie when they say “family is the most important thing”……………. Filming is the most important thing to them!

              • adioslunatic says:

                There is a clip out there of Teresa’s housewarming party and she gives her brother a HUGE introduction and professes her undying love for him…Bravo just chose to not air it. How is that Teresa’s fault? The midget is really the idiot here and we all know the only thoughts he has come form his penis, Meho knows this and can play this mental midget like no ones business. They are both narcissists and, if you ever had the horrible experience of knowing one personally, they can NEVER take the blame. We have witnessed Meho’s mind-melt ways, “say shame on you” etc, God only knows what poison she has been putting in to HIM.

                Cant write exact words but didnt Mel in the beginning say something about how Tre had treated the Manzos more like family than she did her own family? That she spent more time with them then her own family..Now, she is best friends with them…Hmmm..

            • CJ says:

              Done, I think part of the problem is that Teresa only has one sibling. There are no other cousins for her children, just Joe’s.

              You come from a large family. It is quite different when there are just two of you.

              • donewithbravo says:

                That might be true, CJ. I always say that if I disagree with 1 sibling, I could go down the line to the next one. I’m blessed (+ we all get along really well!!). I still stand by the fact that even if I only had ONE sibling, and we were arguing a lot, to a detrimental point, I’d call it quits until one of us figured out a way to make it more civil. The negativity outweighs the cousins seeing each other.

              • CJ says:

                I think Teresa has taken enough from her brother and it is probably time for her to walk away.

                Maybe there will be a time when they can be close, but it doesn’t appear to be now.

              • donewithbravo says:

                I agree! Too bad the show can’t end for good and maybe they could all continue to heal, apart from each other for now.

              • just me says:

                I don’t see it happening while he’s married to Mel because she will always be in his ear about how terrible Tre treats her and there will always be the underlying animosity with his parents which the hoe with no soul will continue to convince him is Tre’s doing IMO

    • ImThePuppeteer says:

      It’s easy to say “get over it” and it’s harder to do so. I wouldn’t tell anyone who is grieving (and that’s what Tre is doing) to just get over it. jmo

      • donewithbravo says:

        Been there. Done that. Although it’s 1 of 5 siblings, I’ve tried everything to figure her out and reach a peaceful state. Couldn’t be done. I grieved and then realized it’s better to separate when there’s that much negativity and I rarely dwell on it, even when my mom brings up her name!

    Kind of off the track, but was wondering how real actors and actresses feel when they are at some big shindig and one of the reality show misfits are there acting like they are in the same class as the real thing…I was just reminded of it when someone mentioned dinner for smucks. It also reminds me of those parties you hear about(cause would never be invited)and the really smart people invite really dumb people so they can make fun of them or embarrass them. I think it would be so Twilight Zone if when they do a finale show of all the HW shows and we find that its all been a big set-up and everyone is sitting in a big hall watching as the HW find out they have been duped….AHHA!!!

    Hope you guys work it out one day DWB.

    Gosh I feel sorry for Tre. Anderson having her on the show again did nothing to remedy the situation.

    I’ve been doing some research on pay for talk, this from the NY Times:

    The practice of paying for interviews is common in Britain. In the United States, magazines like Us Weekly pay for wedding and baby photographs of celebrities and are often granted interviews at the same time, and tabloid shows like “TMZ” and “The Insider” pay for stories and interviews. But they are generally not held to the same standards as the network news divisions, all of which have ethics policies against paying for interviews.

    Here is the whole article:
