The Real Housewives of New Jersey - cast member Teresa Giudice and husband Giuseppe "Joe" Giudice was apparently far from, er, reality. The couple has been accused of perjury and fraud in U.S. Bankruptcy Court for withholding assets from their Chapter 7 bankruptcy petition filed in October, according to local station WPIX.
A little rumor has been running wild about ‘Real Housewives of New Jersey’ star Danielle Staub and her allegedly dating Ray J.
The rumor recently started to spread, but Ray J decided to put an end to the comments, states RumorFix. “I don’t date housewives. I don’t date anybody married!! That’s just not cool,” Ray J wrote on Twitter.
Apparently Ray J is not a ‘Housewives’ watcher because Staub hasn’t been married for some time now, so there is always a chance for the two if he’s interested.
Where do you think this rumor came from?
You can pick your friends, but you can’t pick your family.
That saying rings truer than ever on the premiere of “The Real Housewives of New Jersey.” In the first five minutes of the show, viewers will witness a vicious fight at The Manor, a reception hall in West Orange. The fight is not between two women, as is usually the case on this shriekfest, but between a brother and a sister. At a family christening. Histrionic “Housewife” Teresa Giudice comes over to the table where her brother, Joe
Gorga, is sitting with his wife, Melissa, and their friends. Before she can utter the word “Congratulations,” Joe, who is two years younger, lashes out at her, calling her “garbage.” A stunned Teresa tries to find out what’s wrong but Joe pounds the table and all of a sudden, it’s a free-for-all. The men are up, shoving each other. The women are braying at each other behind them.

Did we mention this takes place at the christening of the Gordas’ newborn, Joey?
“I was screaming at the cameras to get out of my son’s christening,” says Melissa, who insists there were no retakes for the sake of the production. “I didn’t sleep for three days. I was devastated.”
The “Housewives” franchise thrives on brawls of this kind, slugfests that bring out the worst in everyone, whether they are related or barely know each other. Who can forget the end of season one when Teresa upended a table at another formal occasion and called “Housewife” Danielle Staub a “prostitution whore.”
When Melissa Gorga, one of two new “Housewives” this season, watched that moment on the television in her own home, she says, “My husband and I were both gasping for air.” She told her husband, “Now the whole world is going to think you’re crazy as she is. He said, ‘Unbelievable. I can’t believe I have to go work tomorrow.’”
The Gorgas, who live in a 15,000 square ft. home in Montville, were not so mortified by Teresa’s histrionics that they turned down the chance to join the show. After all, what better platform for Melissa to launch her career as a singer? “You’re going to see my journey to stardom,” she says. (Let’s hope she sounds better that New York “Housewife” Countess LuAnn de Lesseps, whose single “Money Can’t Buy You Class” was unspeakably dreadful.)
In the scenario for this season in New Jersey, which was taped last fall, it looks like Melissa and Teresa are the enemies.
“Melissa is my sister-in-law and we’re not exactly best friends,” Teresa hints ominously to the camera.
Says Melissa of her sister-in-law in the first episode, “That bitch will never miss a party, especially if someone else is paying for it.”
A baby’s chistening is a sacred event, a time for family and close friends to come together and join together for the beloved new infant’s baptism. It is a time of peace, happiness and togetherness…that is if you aren’t one of the cast members of The Real Housewives of New Jersey.
Season three of The Real Housewives of New Jersey (which airs on May 16th) starts off – right out of the gate – with a some good old fashioned chaos. What happens? (Spoiler Alert!)
At the Manor, a reception hall in West Orange, New Jersey, Teresa Guidice got in a verbal altercation with her brother Joe Gorga (the husband of new cast member Melissa Gorga).
The New York Post reports that, “(Joe) Gorga, is sitting with his wife, Melissa, and their friends. Before she can utter the word “Congratulations,” Joe, who is two years younger, lashes out at her, calling her “garbage.” A stunned Teresa tries to find out what’s wrong but Joe pounds the table and all of a sudden, it’s a free-for-all. The men are up, shoving each other. The women are braying at each other behind them.”
“I was screaming at the cameras to get out of my son’s christening,” said Melissa. “I didn’t sleep for three days. I was devastated.”
Yup, pretty dramatic. And at their baby’s christening? Yeah, that’s not a happy to joining the cast, let’s hope it doesn’t get worse!
