E! has affiliate relationships, so we may get a commission if you...The feud continues! I was expecting this season of Real Housewives of New Jersey to be much different. I thought it would mostly focus on Teresa Giudice’s love bubble with fiancé Luis Ruelas. We saw from the trailer that Margaret Josephs had a lot to do with that drama. But what I wasn’t prepared for was Marge to come out swinging at Jennifer Aydin. In the very first episode! Marge threw out the bomb that she knows Jennifer’s husband Bill Aydin cheated on her. Marge’s reasoning was that she was sick of Jen bragging about her life. And that Jen was a hypocrite for calling Marge a home wrecker for all these years.
Now Jennifer is defending herself against Marge’s reasoning. And argues that she’s not the hypocrite because she isn’t the one who did the cheating.
Jen recently spoke with Entertainment Tonight and explained of her previous attacks on Marge, “I wasn’t mad that she was a cheater. And I know now that I didn’t articulate it in that way. I think I was just annoyed or irritated at the way that she boasted about it, because [her now-husband, Joe Benigno’s] got an ex-wife somewhere — and she has an ex-husband and she has stepchildren — and doesn’t she know how hurtful this is to constantly repeat it over and over? I would be very hurt if my husband bragged about this infidelity.”
Jen insisted, “I just kept wondering what was her purpose on just almost making it a headline, like it was funny, and things that she would say on camera that she knows people are going to see.” She added, “Like, we were at a party last year and she was saying how Joe used to wash the stench of her off before he went home to his wife, or something to that effect. And I was just like, just don’t talk like that. Like just be respectful. It’s TMI. We don’t need to know. We got it.”
Jen also believes that Marge revealing Bill’s affair in the premiere episode was “premeditated.” She thinks it’s because of her actions both at the reunion and on social media. Jennifer confirmed, “I’m sure she was planning it.” She added, “Like, what, are you trying to embarrass me in the public? Trying to gang up on me? I’m not going to take that. So that’s one of the reasons why it ignited me to call Margaret a snake.”
She then admitted, “I get why she did it. I don’t think the way she went about it was right. Like, if she really wanted to do me a solid, she could have called me up and said, ‘Listen, I have this information. I’m going to bring it out. I’m going to say it…’ maybe giving me the opportunity to say to my own voice, in my own way. I was very ambushed and I felt like I was very caught off guard.”
In continuing to defend herself, Jennifer maintained, “Everything that I’ve done to Margaret has actually been in retaliation to what she’s done to me. It’s just, for some reason, the audience likes to start at me first.” She concluded, “But if you could just backtrack to the core, to the beginning of it all, you’ll see that at the end of the day, it’s Margaret usually saying something to me where I say something in retaliation.”

Heartbreaking news has hit the Real Housewives of Potomac — Mia Thronton has been diagnosed with cancer. The newest Potomac cherry blossom is a businesswoman who came into the group thanks to her friend, the Grand Dame Karen Huger. She fit right in with the ladies and didn’t hesitate to join in on the reasonable shadiness. Now, in-between seasons of the show, Mia took to Instagram to reveal her diagnosis.
The RHOP star posted a snatched selfie along with a long caption to explain the news. Mia says she received the call from her doctor a week prior to making the post. She did not reveal the specifics of her diagnosis but says she’s been seeing specialists at John Hopkins Cancer Center. “The storm is not over but this experience is changing me,” Mia wrote.
Mia added that she and her husband Gordon Thornton experienced an “overwhelming amount of emotion” after receiving the call. “Even with such terrible news, I felt an extreme amount of peace and energy instilled that allowed me to remain strong,” she added. It’s amazing to see how positive Mia is being about the road ahead, and my heart goes out to her, G, and their kids as they go through this experience.
The post concluded with Mia giving her followers “a gentle reminder to Live, Love & Forgive as if today was your last.” The comments were flooded with support, including from her RHOP co-star Robyn Dixon. “Keeping you in my thoughts and prayers. Stay strong mama,” Robyn wrote. Also, alum Monique Samuels wrote that she is “sending prayers and healing power” Mia’s way.
The support for Mia is extending outside of RHOP. Real Housewives of New York newbie Eboni K. Williams also commented a handful of emojis to express that she’s praying for Mia. Also, Real Housewives of Atlanta peach Sheree Whitfield wrote that she will be “keeping [Mia] in [her] prayers.” I think we can all express similar sentiments to Mia and her family and wish the best for Mia on her healing journey.

Dolores Catania is a Real Housewives of New Jersey staple. She’s Teresa Giudice’s always-loyal friend and the only person who really understands her twisted logic. Without Dolo, we wouldn’t get to watch Frank Catania drink appletinis and goof around on our TVs on a weekly basis. Plus, I love it when Paterson Dolores comes out and gets in someone’s face for questioning her.
Dolores has been in the drama this season, particularly when it comes to her lack of support toward Jennifer Aydin. Jackie Goldschneider, of all people, went to bat against Dolores in support of Jennifer and it got ugly. However, Dolo was also in a rough place because she finally split with David Principe.
David was in the running for the worst boyfriend of all time. He was never around and didn’t prioritize Dolores, even though he does get along well with Frank and the kids. No one was really shocked they split, but Smokeshow Dolo wasted no time finding a new guy. And in a recent appearance on Watch What Happens Live, she dished a few details about the new man in her life.
Dolores says her BF Paulie Connell has met Margaret Josephs and Jennifer already, but he’s only spoken to Tre via FaceTime. She also told Andy Cohen that her friend set her up on a blind date with him and the rest was history. “I had just broken up with David and she was like, ‘You should meet my friend. He’s a cool dude,'” Dolores said.
Obviously, someone like Dolores can get any guy she wants. So I’m glad to see she wasted no time putting herself out there after dropping the dead weight of David from her life. Hopefully, Paulie can get along with Frankie and the rest of the RHONJ husbands, which is the true test of a relationship in this group of friends.

The post Dolores Catania Shares Which RHONJ Stars Have Met Her New Man And Explains How She Met Him appeared first on Reality Tea.
Margaret Josephs wasn’t lying when she teased that she was in the center of all the drama this season on Real Housewives of New Jersey. During the Season 12 premiere, Margaret exposed her RHONJ co-star Jennifer Aydin’s husband, Bill Aydin, as a cheater.
Bill’s infidelity occurred 10 years ago, when Jennifer was pregnant with their fourth kid. Oof. Jennifer never told anyone about her husband’s indiscretion. “I was able to do it for the greater good of my family,” Jennifer stated.
RHONJ stars Jennifer and Margaret have a history of coming for each other. Jennifer slammed Margaret, and Margaret’s mother, for dating married men. Margaret claimed that Jennifer used Bill as a “meal ticket.”
Margaret admitted that she revealed Bill’s indiscretion because Jennifer was a hypocrite. And Margaret said that she knew about Bill’s infidelity before Jennifer joined the RHONJ cast. Melissa Gorga also stated that she knew about Bill’s affair for years.
Jennifer told Entertainment Tonight that she doesn’t believe that Margaret was aware of Bill’s affair when she joined RHONJ. During Jennifer’s first season, Margaret hinted at Bill’s infidelity when she commented that Bill supposedly slept with his girlfriend or in the pool house. Jennifer erupted in fury and Margaret dropped it.
“What courtesy did she have to me? I think it was better for her to do it back [in season 9], because at least back then there was no history and she really didn’t care,” Jennifer explained.
“So why wouldn’t she blurt it out? She would think like, ‘Oh, she came onto the show. She knew it’s, like, all bets are off. I’m going to out her…,'”Jennifer commented. “So, I feel that if she did have that information for real, that she would’ve used it. So, I don’t believe that she’s had it all this time.” That is a valid point.
Jennifer stated, “I do believe that she knew when we were filming our [season 11] reunion in New York. And again, it looks like she told Melissa [Gorga] and Jackie [Goldschneider] — so all those times she got mad at me for like, let’s say, telling Teresa [Giudice] what Bill said at boys’ night.”
Bill landed in hot water because he told his wife a juicy story that came up during a boys’ poker night. Margaret’s husband, Joe Benigno, admitted that he also heard the rumor that Jackie’s husband, Evan Goldschneider, cheated on her. Jennifer gave Teresa the tea.
The mother of five continued, “‘Why did you tell Teresa?!’ I don’t know. We tell our friends s**t. You told Melissa and Jackie about my husband’s affair when you obviously are preaching, ‘Don’t gossip…’ but yet you gossip? So, I think that’s hypocritical in itself actually.”
Jennifer called out Margaret on Instagram for her hypocrisy. Jennifer wrote the definition of the word “hypocrite” in the caption. She added a video from the Season 8 RHONJ reunion. In the clip, Margaret defended Teresa and Joe Giudice from cheating whispers. “But when she said something like, ‘Joe is cheating on Teresa, Teresa is cheating on Joe…’ that just doesn’t hurt Teresa, that hurts Teresa’s entire family,” Margaret commented. Bloop!
“She took the words right out of my mouth! And it was interesting, when I saw that clip — and I don’t remember that clip, I don’t remember, and I watched that season, but obviously we don’t pay attention to detail until it affects you — and it had come up on my feed just randomly,” Jennifer told Entertainment Tonight.
She added, “And I was like, this is like poetic justice speaking to me, because it just came off the heat of her constantly calling me a hypocrite.” Both Jennifer and Margaret have been hypocrites, so no one will win this war of words.
“So no, when you say like, ‘Oh, she’s with the same thing and it’s in her own backyard’…No, I’m not. He doesn’t go around bragging to everybody on how he cheated on me,” Jennifer stated. “So, when I saw that, I just thought, ‘You know what? I’m in a good place with her, but this is fact. It’s from her own mouth. So, she can’t get mad at me for saying it,'” Jennifer remarked. “She said it. And I agree with her,” she added.

One thing to admire about Joe Giudice is that his resume is ever-growing. And now, he’s adding something new to his list of accomplishments: legal consultant. In a recent Instagram post, he presented the launch of his new legal consulting firm. So if you’re facing a major criminal case, the former Real Housewives of New Jersey husband is ready to help you “take your first steps toward success.”
He shared the news about his new venture with a post saying, “It’s finally here! I’m happy to announce that my consulting services site has finally launched! Stay tuned for more updates.”
The post included a 22-second video clip that starts by saying, “Take your first step towards success.” Inspirational music plays in the background, and he shows a few pictures from his many court appearances over the years.
A photo of him and Teresa Giudice flashes on the screen, and it says, “You are not alone.” The video lists the different types of “services” his legal consulting firm offers. He claims he can help you with municipal criminal cases, state criminal cases, federal criminal cases, ICE, immigration, white-collar crimes, and incarceration.
In the caption, Joe shared the URL http://joegiudiceconsulta.wixsite.com, but as of right now, that’s not a working website. However, after doing some digging, it seems like he meant to say https://joegiudiceconsulta.wixsite.com/case-consultation.
A quick peek at the website reveals the true inspiration behind his new business. He writes, “I am Joe Giudice – a convicted felon that has been through our justice system and able to provide perspective, guidance, and support to those facing the same experience. The things I went through were tough – the highs, the lows, the life-changing decisions, and misconceived notions of what I was told to expect.”
He then continues to muse about how perhaps the outcome of his legal crisis would have been different had he had better support. Joe says, “What if I had a trusted confidant that provided me with honest, unbiased firsthand advice about how to navigate this situation? I believe my situation would have been different.”
Surely, James J. Leonard Jr. and the rest of the Giudice legal team are rolling their eyes reading that, but Joe promises to provide “perspective, guidance, and insight” on the complex process of facing a big criminal case.
Besides his personal experience becoming a felon, you’re probably wondering what makes Joe Giudice qualified to offer any sort of legal services. Well, he makes it very clear that this is not actual legal advice on his website. He states, “My goal is to help people make informed decisions about their legal team, incarceration and/or ICE. This process is emotional. I am not here to offer legal advice, but I am here to provide consultation throughout your time alongside your legal team.”
On his website, Joe says that because of his personal experience, he can help you choose the right legal team and potentially reduce legal costs. I can think of a couple of Bravolebrities that should probably reach out to him soon.

E! has affiliate...It seemed like actor Todd Bridges slept and snored his way through the first half of Celebrity Big Brother. But in reality? It was part of his strategy, people. Entertainer Todrick Hall and UFC champion Miesha Tate formed an alliance early on and stayed in control for most of the game.
When Queer Eye star Carson Kressley won Head of Household, he put Miesha and Todd up for eviction. Todrick told Carson and Real Housewives of Atlanta alum Cynthia Bailey that their ally, Shanna Moakler, was playing both sides of the Big Brother house. That part was true, but then Todrick lied and said that Shanna wanted Carson out.
Carson believed Todrick, his colleague on RuPaul’s Drag Race, over Shanna, and Shanna was sent home via the back-door. Carson regretted his decision immensely once he was evicted and actually watched the show.
When Lamar Odom, Khloe Kardashian’s ex-husband, was voted out during the Double Eviction, he wasn’t happy with Todrick. Todd was finally ousted after making it to the top four. While on his way out, he told host Julie Chen Moonves that he admired Todrick’s incredible social game and planned to vote for him.
Well, Todd watched CBB after he went home, and he was saltier than a bag of chips. Todd told TV Insider before the finale that he “was always in the game. People thought that I was sleeping, but I was listening to what other people were saying. I was watching. I was hearing,” Todd explained. “I wanted to wait before I made my move. That’s how I made it to the final four. I stayed around long enough listening and hearing”
Todd added, “What scared Miesha and Todrick is I started winning. I stayed very close to them.”
So, when did Todd’s opinion of Todrick change? “What took me a long time to figure out was how Todrick was ready to cut my throat at any time. Unfortunately, rewatching what was going on, I realized he was not as nice as I thought he was,” the actor commented.
“Everything didn’t come together until I got out and watched the horrible things he said about me and Shanna [Moakler]. Then what he did with Carson [Kressley]. I got to see that for myself,” Todd commented.
“At the end of the day, I’m happy I played a great game. A fun game. People enjoyed watching me, hoping I can get through and win. I think it will be totally different when Todrick gets out,” he stated.
Todd said that he changed his mind about who he is going to vote for. “He won’t get my vote now. That has been cut after watching the horrible things he said about me when I was gone,” Todd said.
“Wow, man up. Have the courage to say it when I was there. I told him and Miesha I was coming for them,” Todd remarked. “The line was drawn in the sand.”
He continued, “I think Miesha played a good game. Todrick played an evil game.” Todd added, “Miesha played a pretty mean game too watching it back. They said some pretty mean things. That’s unfortunate.”
During the CBB finale, Todd rolled his repeatedly whenever Todrick spoke in his bid to sway the jury into awarding him the $250,000 prize. In the end, Miesha claimed victory, with only Cynthia voting for Todrick.

In a world where humans can be uploaded into a virtual afterlife, perhaps it's not surprising that they remain as stubborn as ever. The trailer for the second season of Prime...Whitney Rose did not do herself any favors on this season of Real Housewives of Salt Lake City. Her main story line was rebranding her skin care that no one has heard of anyway. Oh, and repeatedly trying to force a confrontation with Mary Cosby, who couldn’t even be bothered to care. I don’t really blame her. Were Mary and Whitney ever friends to begin with?
But Whitney likely recognized she was getting nowhere fast and had to pivot quickly. Her next target was Meredith Marks, who the women were already starting to pile up on. The accusation amongst the group was that Meredith skipped out on riding in the sprinter van on their cast trip because she tipped off the feds to Jen Shah being there.
The trip ended before it began for Jen, who was arrested shortly thereafter. Meredith has staunchly denied the claim. When the women started questioning Meredith about it in Zion, Meredith insisted she wasn’t present to travel with them because she was at her deceased father’s memorial service. The women brow beat her about it incessantly, one of those being an intoxicated Whitney.
As reported by Reality Blurb, the Bravo fan account @cici.loves.you rightfully came for Whitney regarding her actions this season. The post read in part, “I seriously can’t with these girls. Still talking about Meredith’s [father’s] memorial is absolutely [disgusting].”
Cici then references when Whitney threw it back in Meredith’s face that she previously hired a private investigator. Cici added, “Whitney was 100% wrong here. She seemed to agree because she told Jen and Jennie [Nguyen] she regretted what she said. Jen Shah takes this opportunity to high five Whitney and celebrate the ‘should I have called a private investigator to find out what the memorial service was?’ comment. That is some low class behavior. Truly [disgusting].”
Whitney defended herself in the comments and said, “I was very supportive of [Meredith] and I think she would agree that I was there for her and trying to support her. My delivery sucked but I was trying to help her out. When she lost her father, I showed up and spent time with her and took her to different healing sessions but unfortunately non of those scenes aired.”
Whitney also claimed that she wasn’t the one who started the questions about Meredith’s father’s service. She concluded, “I completely understand your perspective and realize how it appears but I just want you to realize that it wasn’t me who started the speculation. I just got tangled in someone else’s mess.”

Rock on! E! News can exclusively reveal your first look at season two of NBC's hit comedy, Young Rock, which returns Tuesday, Mar. 15 at 8 p.m. The new images, which you can...
Law & Order has helped launch the careers of some of Hollywood's biggest stars. And no, we're not talking about longtime veterans of the hit NBC crime drama like Anthony...The latest Netflix documentary that has fans talking is The Tinder Swindler. The doc features an alleged scammer named Simon Leviev, who used dating apps to prey on women for cash. Simon told his alleged victims that he was the son of an Israeli diamond tycoon. He also regularly took them out to expensive dinner and on rides on a private jet. Thus enhancing the appearance of extreme wealth.
But law enforcement says it was all an elaborate scam. For certain, we know that Simon is not heir to a diamond empire. Police allege that he lived large with an elaborate scheme that had women opening up credit cards and sending him money under the guise that he was in some kind of danger.
Now the man himself is speaking out and maintains he’s not the person we think he is. As reported by E! News, Simon recently spoke out in an interview with Inside Edition. In the video, he claims that he “was just a single guy that wanted to meet some girls on Tinder.” He also added, “I’m not this monster.”
The interview also features a look at Simon’s “new model girlfriend.” The teaser promises that the interview will reveal “why she is sticking with him.” The first part of the interview will be available on February 21st. The second will be the following day, February 22nd.
This is the first time that Simon is speaking out since The Tinder Swindler hit our screens. But he’s been busy behind the scenes. A source says that he signed on with talent manager Gina Rodriguez. Gina is known for representing well below D-list celebs who are embroiled in scandal. Some of her clients include Lindsay Lohan’s parents and [Mama] June Shannon from Here Comes Honey Boo Boo.
Apparently Gina has wasted no time trying to get Simon a gig. Her verified Instagram account reposted a story from TMZ. The report claimed that Simon is trying to “star in a dating show” and host “a dating podcast.”
In May of 2020, Simon was released from an Israeli jail after 5 months of a 15 month sentence on unrelated fraud charges. And he has yet to be charged with any crimes related to what he is being accused of in the documentary.
But Simon does have to answer to the dating apps where he was finding his alleged victims. A Tinder spokesperson revealed that Simon and “any of his known aliases” were banned from using their services in 2019. They elaborated, “He is permanently banned from Tinder. In the lead up to the release of the documentary, we conducted additional internal investigations and can confirm Simon Leviev is not active on Tinder under any of his known aliases.”
Despite the accounts from multiple woman, Simon maintains his innocence. In a voice memo that was part of the documentary, he said, “I will proceed with the lawsuit against you for discrimination and lies and, you know, everything is based basically on a lie… And that’s it, this is how it’s gonna be.”

Lala Kent spent months airing out her dirty laundry in the wake of her breakup with Randall Emmett. But it looks like the Vanderpump Rules star might have finally turned a corner. Maybe? In recent interviews, she has taken a slightly different tone. Instead of talking about Randall, she’s talking about her new life. She’s shared that she’s dating again.
And obviously, Lala has a young daughter to raise. Ocean Kent Emmett, who she welcomed with Randall in March 2021. Lala has admitted that they only communicate through a coparenting app. But at the very least, it seems like a harmonious situation when it comes to Ocean.
There has been a ton of press surrounding their break up. And Lala has acknowledged that she is going to have to explain all this to Ocean one day. As reported by People, Lala took to a Instagram to have a Q&A session. One fan asked if Lala worries about Ocean learning about the “negative stories” about her father. Lala responded, “I worry about a lot of things. But I will explain to my daughter, if she has questions and the time is appropriate, what happened.”
Lala continued, “It will be an open conversation. No matter what, I am her mama. Which means I will teach her the importance of being a good person.” Lala said she will make sure that Ocean will feel “strong, safe, and loved.” Lala also want to ensure that Ocean will “be unbreakable.” She added, “The world isn’t ready for the force my daughter will become.”
Another fan asked how Lala is “staying so strong” in the aftermath of her messy breakup. Per Page Six, Lala responded, “Obviously I get a lot of strength from my daughter but beyond that, I think strength comes with knowing your worth, with or without someone.”
She continued, The moment I saw who that person really was, and the mask had finally fallen, I knew I was better off and he never deserved me. That feeling gave me power.” Lala confessed, “Even though there are moments I go ‘what the f—,’ I find strength in the fact that I am happy again. I recognize myself in the mirror again.”
Lala previously admitted that when it comes to parenting together, they were “a little bit of a schedule.” But that “nothing is set in stone.” She also gushed that being a single mom is a “strength that I cannot describe.” She concluded, “Of course, I have my moments, but they don’t take me out. It’s moments of confusion and trying to understand things. But all in all, I feel like the most powerful, independent, and most beautiful that I have ever felt in my entire life.”

Wednesday night’s Season Finale of Celebrity Big Brother was quick, to-the-point and without many surprises. After 30 days in the Big Brother house, as the episode started we were done to just three celebrities left in the game: Miesha Tate, Cynthia Bailey and Todrick Hall, and there was little chance that it wasn’t going to go exactly the way that most fans thought it would.
By the end of the episode, it was MMA champion, Miesha “Cupcake” Tate, who was crowned the winner of Big Brother 3 over runner-up Todrick. The power duo of Miesha and Todrick dominated the game with Miesha acting as a competition beast (she would ultimately win four HOH comps, including the final one, as well as a POV comp to boot). Todrick on the other hand was a social phenom, a super-fan who used his knowledge of the game to further himself and Miesha and position them perfectly. Cynthia really didn’t stand a chance, and after Miesha won that last HOH, Cynthia was sent out the front door becoming the eighth and final member of the jury.
As it played out, Miesha‘s competition domination couldn’t be denied. In winning her way deep into the game, she afforded the ability to be a straight-shooter with many of her victims, and this earned her respect with the jury. Todrick on the other hand, took most of the blame and had lots of blood on him, some of it from self-inflicted wounds (celebrating after Shanna Moakler was evicted and evoking the name of Chris Kirkpatrick‘s son during an argument are not moves that are going to win jury votes). Todrick also was negatively impacted just by the mere structure of the Celebrity version of the show versus the regular version, in that for the regular version of the show, the jury is sequestered until Finale night. On Celebrity Big Brother, the ousted contestants go back out into the real world, and get to watch the episodes themselves and also check the opinions of America on social media…neither were a positive for Todrick’s chances.
Miesha ultimately earned seven of the eight jury votes cast (only Cynthia voted for Todrick, ironically the only one that didn’t get to watch the episodes since she was freshly voted out). There was real bitterness with some of the jurors, especially Todd Bridges who couldn’t contain himself from rolling his eyes and shifting around uncomfortably every time Todrick spoke. Kirkpatrick had a zing that gave him the last laugh over Todrick, when he cast his vote for Miesha and added, “My son would want it no other way.” This of course, referencing back to the conversation he had with Todrick where Todrick implied that Chris’s son would not be proud of the game his dad had played.
We never got to find out who America would have selected to win the game between Todrick and Miesha had they ended in a tie, but we did learn that Carson Kressley was America’s Favorite Houseguest. He won the fan vote and $25,000 prize, with Lamar Odom and Shanna rounding out the top three in vote-getters. Chris Kattan was invited back for the Finale (not sure exactly why, as he wasn’t allowed to cast a jury vote since he quit the show), and there were more than a few cold shoulders given to Todrick during the usual on-stage hugging and congratulations fest that goes on once the winner is announced and the confetti flies.
It was clear early on that Miesha was becoming the biggest threat, but with Todrick by her side she was just an unstoppable force. She is ultimately a very deserving winner and while there were no late-game upsets or massive shocks, it’s sometimes good to just see a good person put in the effort, finish the job and come out victorious. Every season seems to have a Todrick, that one player that plays a bit too hard where he might very well “deserve” to win, but just doesn’t earn the votes at the end. As I always mention in my Survivor coverage, the goal of the game is not simply to get to the end…the name of the game is getting to the end AND getting the people that you voted out to give you prize money. Both need to happen, or you didn’t do it right, and Todrick is the latest to fall into that category.
Speaking of Survivor, I hope you join me for my coverage and recaps when the new season begins on March 9th!
That will do it for our coverage of Celebrity Big Brother 3…congrats to Miesha and to Carson for winning the fan-favorite vote!

TELL US – WHAT DO YOU THINK OF THE FINALE? OF THIS SEASON AS A WHOLE? AND WAS MIESHA THE MOST DESERVING?

Years ago, the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum fell out with her friend Lisa Vanderpump over some tabloids in a suitcase. During Season 10 of RHOBH, Brandi made a cameo appearance and claimed that she hooked up with Denise Richards. Denise denied Brandi’s allegations and left the show shortly thereafter.
Brandi joined the Season 2 cast of the Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip, which was filmed at Dorinda Medley’s Blue Stone Manor in the Bezerkshires. And Brandi didn’t disappoint in the trouble-making department. Brandi almost got in a physical fight, but Real Housewives of Atlanta alum Phaedra Parks stopped her.
According to Reality Blurb!, Real Housewives of New Jersey star Melissa revealed a bizarre run-in with Brandi on her Melissa Gorga On Display podcast. “The first time I met her, I will never forget. I went to Lisa Vanderpump’s restaurant. I met Lisa and Ken [Todd],” Melissa explained. “I was with Joe Gorga, and we had dinner. This had to be 10 years ago and we’re there, she was friends with Brandi at the time. She invited her to come.”
Melissa continued, “[And Brandi] decided that she thought Joe was sexy and I didn’t know how to handle it. We were sitting at the dinner table, and she literally licked the side of Joe’s face,” the Envy boutique owner stated. As one does with an attractive stranger.
“Like, we were just sitting there talking and she just decided to take a big — literally took the tongue from one end to his face to the top of his face and he just froze,” Melissa shared.
The RHONJ star stated that her husband knew that Brandi is “a crazy b-tch,” so he kept his cool. “I was like, ‘Oh, that’s cute. Like, what’s happening?’ We didn’t make it awkward,” Melissa said. “We laughed and it was funny, and Lisa Vanderpump was kind of just like, ‘Oh this is her. You know, this is Brandi.’” Oof.
“I was like, ‘Did you just lick my husband’s face?’ She’s like, ‘I did.’ And then I was like, ‘Okay,’” Melissa remarked. “She’s like, ‘He’s so cute.’ So I was like, ‘Alright, do it again.’” Yikes.
Melissa added, “She did it again. I took a picture. So, I have a picture of her licking my husband’s face.” Congrats?
“She got very wasted that night. And we kind of took her home,” Melissa commented. “We had to place her in a car. It was a whole thing.”

If you haven’t watched The Tinder Swindler on Netflix, I highly recommend it. The unbelievable story about how one man allegedly conned dates out of an estimated $10 million. But the true amount, along with the number of alleged victims, is still unknown. Simon Leviev, the man behind the nickname, pretended that he was a super wealthy Israeli diamond heir. He got women on the hook by flying them around on private jets and taking them out to expensive restaurants. He certainly seemed wealthy. But as the women explained, things started to get a little weird. Simon would then make claims that his “enemies” were after him and therefore, he didn’t have access to his wealth. That’s when he started asking for money.
The women in the documentary are still on the hook for the credits cards they ran up and the money they allegedly loaned him. Unrelated fraud charges landed Simon in an Israeli jail for 5 months back in 2019. But when it comes to his most recent allegations of swindling, he has yet to be charged with anything. He has been banned from multiple dating sites but Simon has already moved on to his next grift. He got himself an agent and is trying to start a podcast and even a dating show, where women would “compete for his love.” Until that pans out (here’s hoping it doesn’t), he’s got to find some way to make some quick cash.
As reported by TMZ, he’s doing just that by joining Cameo. For those of you who aren’t familiar, Cameo is a site where all kinds of different levels of celebrities can send you or someone of your choice a personalized video. For a cost, of course. Simon’s account charges $200 for a personal message and $1,600 for business inquiries. He allegedly made $30k in his first 3 days, although that report is unconfirmed.
Apparently, people have requested birthday shout outs, pep talks, anniversary videos and more. Simon’s profile reads, “Excited to be on Cameo to wish the special person in your life whatever you need!” In a sample video featured on his page, he jokes that his enemies are after him. And he already has 433 fans and 36 reviews – all 5 star. But like his other ventures, we are left to wonder how long it could possibly continue.
TELL US – WOULD YOU BOOK THE TINDER SWINDLER FOR A CAMEO? EVEN IF IT WAS $5? HAVE YOU EVER BEEN LIED TO ON A DATING APP?
