Page Six is claiming the drama causing Real Housewife of DC and her shady husband Tareq, won’t be back for a second season (if there is one).

Real Housewives of DC is the only version of the franchise that hasn’t been a runaway hit for Bravo, and speculation is that it has to do with the Sahali’s involvement. 

Adding to that there’s increasing tension with fellow cast member Lynda “dealing with second tier seemed so unnatural” Erkiletian, who’s been complaining to people about the Salahi’s publicity stunts. 

The Salahi’s have also accused Bravoof keeping them from telling people what really went down the night of the White House State Dinner they crashed last fall (The Salahi’s were likely behind the idea but the camera crew was probably only too delighted to tag along for the ride), irritating the high foreheads at the network.

Most recently, Michaele announced she has MS and has been living with the disease for years.  She wouldn’t lie about something like that.  Would she?

WTF?

Apparently, angry super-model Naomi Campbell is a fan of the Real Housewives of New Jersey and the neanderthal-esque Teresa in particular. 

During last nights Watch What Happens: Live, the angry one called in to gush to Teresa, “How do you do it? You have four kids, you take care of your family, you cook and clean. I mean, you have no help at all. How do you do it?! You’re a role model. It’s like, you dress all your kids. They’re always….it’s amazing.”

When host Andy Cohen asked if Naomi thought Teresa is a role model (clearly not believing what he was hearing for himself) Naomi tried to throw a cell phone at him, even though she wasn’t in the same room.  Ok, she didn’t do that at all.  Naomi answered, “Yeah, she’s a role model, a mother…. She’s a business woman, she’s cooking, she’s cleaning, she’s a wife…. You know, yeah. The real deal.”

How anyone can be called a role model after spending their way into $11 million in debt, declare bankruptcy, lie about their finances regarding the aforementioned bankruptcy, while behaving like a borderline psychopath on TV is beyond me, but this is Naomi Campbell we’re dealing with here.  

I’m thinking the two should get together.  Naomi can teach Teresa how to whip a Blackberry at people’s heads and give beat-downs to staff, while Teresa can show Naomi how to flip tables and have epic tantrums (as if she needs help in that department).

You just know Daniellle (Prostitution Whore!) Staub is loving this.

Rumour is Teresa is now on the outs with Andy Cohen and the rest of the high foreheads at Bravo.  Word is the suits at the network moved to cast Teresa’s sister in-law Melissa Gorga as a way of playing hardball with financially challenged famewhore, who is said to want a 100% raise to come back for the third season.

Do I need to mention that Teresa the Terrible does not get along with her sister in law at all?  Although it’s a foregone conclusion that getting on Teresa’s sh*t list is an exceptionally easy thing to do, Danielle did some digging into the Guidice family and found out Teresa the Terrible’s husband Joe allegedly stepped out on her with the sister-in-law, fathering a son.  Allegedly.  Hence all the hatred between the two.

Right out of a soap opera, right?

Also complicating matters even further, Teresa published a cookbook called The Skinny Italian, and in addition to hiding her $250 000 advance from her bankrupty filing (totally illegal and totally busted for it) she promised Bravo 10% of the royalties in exchange for hawking the book on The Real Housewives of New Jersey.  However, the scenes shot where Teresa is making the recipes and talking about the book never aired.  The Skinny Italian only ended up being mentioned once in the much talked about reunion show (where Teresa knocked host Andy Cohen over trying to attack Danielle).

 How come the most interesting drama going on in these reality TV shows never happens in front of the cameras?

The infamous White House Party Crasher and Real Housewives of DC cast member is planning to take it all off for an upcoming issue of Playboy.

TMZ is saying that Michaele is “very excited” (guess the highbeams are on) to be doing the photoshoot later this month and that she won’t pull a Levi Johnston, leaving nothing to the imagination.  Words in English won’t be able to describe the horror.

Playboy isn’t sure if they’re going to put the 44 year old famewhore on the cover, but according to Michaele’s spokesminion, she “would love it”.  Really? She seems so shy.  Meanwhile, the people in the magazine’s art department are probably all sighing in resingnation and getting ready to pull double shifts photoshopping.

Andy Cohen strikes again.  The fun and games begin October 16 on Bravo (USA). 

Apparently, Kellsey Grammer will be on several times visiting his ex, gold-digger and plastic surgery aficionado Camille Donatacci (second from left).  No word if Paris Hilton’s going to show up to visit her aunts, Kim and Kyle Richards (second and third from the right) during the season, or what impact her recent legal woes will have on any appearances she may have already taped.

This should prove to be the (totally scripted) trainwreck to end all trainwrecks.  I’ll watch (but hate myself afterwards for it).

Teresa Giudice, the neanderthalesque cast member of Real Housewives of New Jersey with garish taste and no self control when it comes to shopping is laying the blame for all her financial woes squarely at the feet of Bravo.

Huh?

Apparently, right after declaring bankruptcy, Teresa and her husband Joe dropped over $60 thousand on new furniture for their new home.  The judge overseeing their case felt this was a little excessive, basically saying for people who claim to have no money, they should stick to shopping at Ikea.

Oooooh, BURN.

Lest you think that they spent $60k on furnishing the whole house, think again.  Over $8 000 went to drapes, with another $45 000 dropped on wall hangings, mirrors, tables and chairs.  (All their old crap is up for auction October 3rd to pay their creditors). 

Teresa’s lawyer whined to People that “she needed to re-buy furniture because she didn’t have any furniture in the house.  It’s a big house and she wanted furniture consistent with her style on the show. There is nothing wrong with doing that, except that it doesn’t look good for her to be doing it.”

You think?  With legal advice like that, is it any wonder the Giudice’s are in trouble?  Cripes. 

Meanwhile, some insider (probably Joe) told Popeater ”Everything would be settled by now, but because she is now famous everyone is using the situation to get press for themselves and humiliate her and her family [cough- Danielle Staub-cough]. It’s honestly got to the point where she’s not sure if she wants to come back for another season.  Teresa is sick of everyone knowing all her private financial business.  She didn’t sign up to be on ‘Housewives’ so that everyone could look into her bank account. Millions of couples go through what they are going through, except no one knows about it. It’s just not fair.”

Ah, the seldom used after age 10 but always entertaining “it’s not fair” arguement.  It’s scary to think that people with this attitude have reproduced, no?

I’m back!  Did you miss me?  Enough pleasantries, Lets jump right in…

Looks like Danielle Staub (aka The Joker in bad drag, aka Prostitution Whore!) has been sh*t canned from The Real Housewives of New Jersey.

While rumours swirl around as to the whys, who’s, and hows of her departure, word is the other…. um…. ladies went to producers with an ultimatum, either Prostitution Whore! goes or they’d go. 

That threat, combined with the increasingly shady details of Prostitution Whore!’s past coming to light and recent sex tape fiasco, probably sealed the decision for network execs (unless they plan on giving her her own spin-off show).

Stay tuned….

…and it’s going to cost him.

Kelsey Grammer, currently in the midst of divorcing the permanently 41 year old and Real Housewives of Beverly Hills cast-member Camille Donatacci, never had her sign a pre-nup when they got married back in 1997.

Cripes.  

This means in all likelihood Kelsey is going to have to fork over 50% of all earnings he made between then and now, a figure rumored to be at least $100 million.

Lets hear it for them folks!  Kelsey Grammer, new poster child for male pattern idiocy, and Camille Donatacci, gold-digger standard setter.

Bravo has officially announced the cast for the latest installment of their Real Housewives of franchise, which starts August 5th.

Above, from left to right they are….

Catherine Ommanney – Fresh of the boat from England, the interior designer and author moved to the States when she married a photojournalist from Newsweek Magazine in 2008.  She has two children.  She is probably terrible.

Stacie Scott Turner – An MBA Harvard grad that worked for BET in their marketing department before switching careers and going into real estate. She’s apparently involved in lots of political fundraisers and is probably horrible.

Mary Schmidt Amons – A true child of the Beltway, she founded a couple of charities and summered with the Kennedy’s as a child.  She is probably ghastly.

Lynda Erkiltean -  A divorced mother of four, she owns T.H.E.  Artists Agency, a Georgetown firm for models and stylists.  Dating a much younger man, her hobbies include riding ATV’s, cooking, and shooting clay pigeons.  She is probably awful.

Michaele Salahi -  The wild card of the bunch (so far).  Hobbies include crashing White House State Dinners, famewhoring, and playing innocent to the media.  We know she’s a holy terror.

It’s been a busy few days for two of the cast members of The Real Housewives of New Jersey.

First it turns out Teresa Giudicie (the one that looks like a Neanderthal with a penchant for flipping dining room tables), and her husband Joe are almost $11 million dollars in debt.  Apparently, they’re not as wealthy as they tried to appear on the show.  SHOCKING! 

Those buzzkills at the banks are said to be circling like vultures, and the Giudicie’s have already lost their summer place on Jersey Shore (the actual location, not the show) and another residence.  Next to go is that $1.5 million dollar mansion they had custom built that was featured in the last episode of the show.   If ever there was an award for overspending, these two would be on the short list.

Now comes word that Danielle (Prostituiton Whore!) Staub (the one that looks like a female version of the Joker) has a sex tape coming out next week.  Of couse she does.  Isn’t this par for the course at this point? 

Word is Danielle tried to stop it last year (sure she did – you just know she wanted a bigger cut of the take, asumming there is one) but TMZ reports that Hustler is releasing the tape next Tuesday.  The tape features Danielle and that 26 going on 40 looking douchebag she was dating briefly on RHONJ,  Stephen Zalewski.  Blech.

Both women are pobably toasting each other’s misfortune, self inflected as it is.  No word if all this will somehow make it into season two of the show or if the fallout will have to wait until season three.
