Mohamed Hadid’s friend, Joe Francis’ company, “Girls Gone Wild,” has filed for bankruptcy… but the bankruptcy will not affect Joe!
To make the GGW bankruptcy filing a bit more palatable and to give it more “respectability,” GGW has issued a statement saying that their bankruptcy is in line with other US companies… like General Motors!
GGW Brands filed for Chapter 11 in U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Central California on Thursday, claiming a little over $16 million in debts. But according to the companies, things will carry on as normal in Girls Gone Wild-land, or at least as normal as things can be there.
“Yesterday several of the U.S. operating entities for Girls Gone Wild joined the ranks of companies like American Airlines and General Motors having sought reorganization under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy code. Girls Gone Wild remains strong as a company and strong financially,” the company told TheWrap in a statement Thursday.
NOTE: Yolanda Foster’s ex-husband, Mohamed Hadid, knows Joe Francis well… well enough to invest in a helicopter with Joe… SH March 22, 2012!
Joe will not be affected by the bankruptcy because, according to Bloomberg… Joe has not owned GGW for two years.
The bankruptcy case doesn’t mention Francis or the lawsuit. It was signed by a company manager, Chris Dale, and listed its biggest debt as $10.3 million to Wynn Las Vegas. The company said it disputes the validity of that debt and a $5.8 million claim by Tamara Favazza.
GGW Brands filed for bankruptcy “to restructure its frivolous and burdensome legal affairs,” Francis’s executive assistant, Heather Brook, said in an e-mailed statement. She said Francis hasn’t owned the company for two years.

Speakin’ of the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills… and RATINGS… as much as Bravo loves to be braggin’ on how well their Housewives are doin’ in the ratings, according to TVByTheNumbers, WWE is the ratings winner in the Monday night cable ratings!
The RHOBH even got beat by VH1′s”Love and HipHop” in the 8 pm time slot!
NOTE: It is no wonder that Bravo has been providing MORE and EARLIER “sneak peeks” of the RHOBH to garner more interest for the BH franchise in the hopes that their waning ratings will pick up!
As for the Atlanta franchise, they are still skeered of going back to their Sunday night 9 PM time slot… they were also being slaughtered in the ratings by “HereComesHoneyBooBoo”!
Not THIS HoneyBooBoo… 
THIS HoneyBooBoo!
“MobWives” also got the message re “Honey…” and they skeedaddled outta the 9 pm time slot, moving to 10 pm a few weeks ago. It would have been VERY interesting if MobWives had moved to 8 pm and had a head-to-head with those “brown girls” from Atlanta! Interestingly, Bravo has NOT been braggin’ about the Atlanta ratings… as their ratings are also tanking…
As for “HoneyBooBoo”… if you hadn’t heard, Honey and all her kinfolk are gonna be redneckrepresentin’ the USA internationally! “Honey” has been airing in Poland and is number three in the ratings there… “Honey” will soon be airing in Australia, The Netherlands, Latin America and Italy.
TLC has taken a page from Bravo’s book and is offering a huge selection of over-priced “HoneyBooBoo” junk to purchase! And, just like anything “Housewives”… watch out for those “fees” and outta whack shipping charges!

That would be $24.90 for YOU to drink your coffee out of an 11 ounce cup which you can buy at Target for $.99… paint your own “HoneyBooBoo” quote on it yerself!
I love the RHOBH…but I love the WWE more. I usually watch all three hours and record the Housewives.
I never look at the tv schedule, so I had no idea what other shows were on in this timeslot. Thanks! Sidenote: Camille’s makeup/skin looks flawless in that pic. Perfect lip color for her and her makeup finally matches her skin.
yeah, but she looks evil, doesn’t she?
Lil’ bit, yeah!
My son is obsessed with WWE, and I have to say. the Housewives have been so damn boring, I’d even take WWE over them.
Men fighting each other like idiots ….. Women fighting each other like idiots. Not much “reality” in “reality TV as far as I can see!
Good comment! I’d still rather watch well dressed women fight than those sweaty Neanderthals on the WWE. LOL!!
No trace of Honey BB here in France, and I hope it will remain this way!
that bothers me that these companies pile on debt, and then claim bankruptcy. I’d like to go on a spending spree and then just say..forget it, i’m not payin, it is the American way..I’m going bankrupt and starting over. That poor girl Tamara Favazza will have another fight to try and collect from that maggot francis
I love me some Honey Boo Boo
I know alot of people disagree but I love da’ Boo Boo she’s too cute. & if nothing else they’re not a bunch of phonies.
I wonder what Joe Francis networth, it can’t be as high as it was over a decade ago. Also he did sleep with Joanna and her sister.
Mob Wives was on at 8pm (before switching to 10pm) on DirectTV as was a few of the more recent episodes of Honey BooBoo… the holiday episodes.
Bravo is killing the HW shows. I am tired of seeing fights, fake drama, people suing and hating each other. I plan to drop extended cable after the reunion so I can not watch anymore.
I don’t know what it is about Mohammed; he bothers me and I don’t care for him. Yolanda deserved much better from him – as a man, husband and father to their children.
After something like 20 years of marriage and three children, she deserved every penny she got from him. She’s more beautiful today then when she married him!
I don’t know how Yolanda can stand being around him, but kudos to her for being able to do so. He looks like he’s aged a lot since seeing him in season one. I think he’s shrinking too – LOL!.
I hope that creep realizes what he blew – for a blow!
That’s what puzzles me about Yofo, egg. Why did she marry that creep in the first place? Love at first sight? She had so little instinct that she didn’t feel the creepiness? Men don’t change, so I think Momo has always been a womanizer. She married his money, and left with a good chunk of it. If all the scorned women could get millions of dollars out of it… She’s not the first wife to get cheated on, esp in BH, but she really got a good deal, and he employs her as a decorator,so it’s a win win win win for her.
LOVE Lizard Lick Towing!!! Like Dog the Bounty Hunter on meth.
The last two RHOA episodes came off a two week hiatus as a result of the superbowl, followed by another hiatus last week due to the Oscars so I don’t think the ATL ratings have tanked that much.. This is their strongest season on average since Season 3. Honey Boo Boo’s ratings are meh so the RHOA has nothing to be skeered about. I don’t think their audiences overlap *that* much.
The *real* competition is The Walking Dead. They KILL in the Sunday Cable Ratings…
des: The mere fact that the RHOA moved their regular time slot of 9 pm, which they had for years until HBB came along, to 8 pm speaks for itself. They moved because they were gettin’ tromped by HBB. They are not getting the ratings which they once bragged about. SH
I heard that Bravo and some other stations are going crazy this coming season with a whole load of reality shows. Years ago when they first started to have reality shows we all were laughing saying ,”They will show anything”. I guess we shouldn’t have laughed. I remember also when a sci-fi writer was writing about a reality show on public executions…..hmmmm..wonder when that is coming…
