Real Housewives Of New Jersey Recap: Do Not Feed The Animals

Real Housewives of New Jersey recap

Real Housewives of New Jersey recap

Siggy Flicker may be Real Housewives Of New Jersey‘s resident (self-appointed) relationship expert, but I’m questioning her sanity and her advice. I mean for all this tawk about soldiers, she’s sure turned into one of Jacqueline Laurita‘s right quick! Jacqueline’s bite is just as scary as her bark, so I get it.

As Dolores Catania warns, Siggy better stop throwing salami and provolone into the pen because when she runs out the Jacqocerous is going to get very angry and chomp her hand.

Honestly, Dolores is far more capable as a relationship expert when it comes to the chaos of Jersey than Siggy.

The ladies slowly trickled home from Vermont, licking their wounds, which amounted to some wrinkles around the eye and a scuffed Louboutin, and realized that unlike their shoes or their faces their ‘group’ – the Fantastic Five – couldn’t be Botoxed or buffed into prettiness again. They were officially kaput. And whose fault was that? Why Jacqueline’s of course! Depending on who you ask. Siggy is having a very difficult time accepting this reality.

Melissa Gorga and Teresa Giudice are considerably less fazed by Jacqueline’s nonsense – because A) they’ve been there before, and B) Teresa has Joe’s very, very impending prison departure happening in a few days.

Siggy is a mess after Vermont

After crying in bed for four days, Siggy visits Dolores, who has some new developments of her own – her kitchen is almost completed (and looks just like the best of a Home Depot showroom), and her gym is making money. In her future, Dolores sees financial freedom from Frank – finally – and it feels so good. After decades being shackled to his bank account as the indentured ex-wife, she has taken the leg lifts towards independence.

Of course Dolores‘ progress is all over-shadowed by Siggy having a huge meltdown about Jacqueline being mad at them for not having her back enough in Vermont. Dolores notes that Siggy has no idea how these girls roll, being that she’s “stuck in the petting zoo” when everyone else was throwing food in the “Do Not Feed section.” I mean, do we need to insult majestic animals like this?

Siggy “feels” Jacqueline is mad at them because she didn’t respond to a text when they usually talk on the phone for an hour per day (!?!?!?!). This breaks Siggy’s heart, but also infuriates her. Dolores is impassive – her heart is as hard as granite and she’s been around this block time and time again. She accepts that Jacqueline and Teresa’s friendship ended that night on the deck because neither one of them will ever admit that they’re wrong.

Melissa confronts Derek at Envy

Over at ENVY, Melissa is trying to figure out why her mannequin is a stripper at Lookers whore, why their online sales are 0, and whether or not Derek, her manager, was scheming to expose Teresa as a tax-evading thief while paying his rent selling stories about her! Melissa half-heartedly confronts him but he insists he’s only ever said nice things. That’s good enough for Melissa – she has the ENVY fashion show to worry about so she she can run Kim D out of town once and for all. Posche this, bitch!

Meanwhile at Jacqueline’s house, she’s wearing jeans so tight she can barely sit down and sulking over Teresa and Melissa. Dolores and Siggy are expected so Siggy can grovel for forgiveness over some non-existent reason. While waiting eons for Jacqueline to quit watching the geese in her backyard and open the door, they do butt squats on her stoop.

They all meet on the deck with Chris and Ashlee standing guard – I’m not sure if it was to restrain Jac if need be, or to protect her. Siggy literally bursts into tears and sobs harder when Jacqueline insists she will never, ever, like ever, be friends with Teresa and Melissa again. YEAH RIGHT. Perhaps Siggy was so distraught because this meeting took place on THE infamous back deck – where lifelong friendships go to die and Jacqueline’s maturity stunts and withers like a potted plant left out in the winter. At least this time Caroline didn’t show up glaring over a Starbuck’s!

Siggy is Jacqueline's loyal soldier

To prove her loyalties, Siggy decides she won’t attend Melissa or Kim D‘s fashion shows, but she will go to the launch of Jacqueline’s popcorn. The whole time I’m pretty sure Dolores played Candy Crush on her phone.

Of all the things that happened in Vermont, Jacqueline is most livid and affronted that Teresa and Melissa would accuse her of having any role in Stripper-gate when she was Melissa’s humble and earnest protector. Jacqueline has always had Melissa’s back, but then Melissa turned on her. It does the beg the question, the age-old, eternal, never-ending question: how did Jacqueline know so much if she had no inkling of what would go down?

I’m confused – Jacqueline screamed, name-called, and insulted everyone in Vermont, yet Melissa is to blame for refusing to take another long and winding trip down memory lane with Jacqueline’s finger pointed in her face? Is Siggy smoking Jacqueline’s twitter and popcorn-flavored crack?

Another legit question – does Chris ever go to work? Ashlee? Or do they all just sit at home placating Jacqueline’s tantrums while eating salami and popcorn?

After deciding where her loyalties lie, Siggy goes to meet Melissa for coffee and let her know that Jacqueline is her more bestest friend. Jacqueline’s immaturity is obviously catching.

Kim D spreads gossip at the Posche Fashion Show

Meanwhile, Jacqueline and Dolores trot over to the Posche Fashion Show. Without Teresa, Melissa, or Danielle Staub there, there was only Kim D to squeeze the drama from the sequins and lace she calls ‘fashion’. And try her damnedest she does by heavily insinuating that Juicy cheated on Teresa in prison, with some blonde, and then “a lotta brunettes.”

Jacqueline

Dolores does not take the bait and kinda shrugs and rolls her eyes. If she wouldn’t have been there, Jacqueline would have been ALL OVER exposing that mess, lapping up the details like they were made of solid gold, but instead she pretends to be above it as she sips her champagne and claps for the Russian Mail Order Bride costumes scampering down the old sheet thrown in the middle of the floor. Jacqueline did make sure to have Kim D exonerate her from any involvement in stripper-gate, though!

Siggy buys a cup of coffee with a $100 bill – cause that’s how she rolls; keeping it 100! – and then confesses to Melissa that she’s skipping the ENVY fashion show. Melissa is rightly pissed and reminds Siggy that it was JACQUELINE screaming at her in Vermont, and JACQUELINE who was screaming criminal and nose job across a restaurant. At least Melissa finally admitted that the “worst-kept secret” in Jersey is true: Yes, she had a nose job (or 4)!

In a strange moment, Siggy admits she initially thought Melissa was fake and phony. Little antenna poke out of Melissa’s hair as she wonders just where that opinion formed. As Siggy flustered through explaining that Melissa was ‘distant’ when they first met, it dawns on Melissa that Jacqueline has probably been talking shit about her for many moons above her back deck.

It is a shocking and stupefying day when Melissa makes salient points, but here she did. Perhaps getting a j-o-b and using that brain muscle for something other than scheming to become more famous has done her body good? Melissa informs Siggy how ridiculous it is that she’s skipping the ENVY show out of loyalty to Jacqueline because even if Jacqueline has no interest in a friendship with Melissa she was the one hurtling unprovoked low-blows! “Just watch your back,” Melissa warns Siggy, “because nobody gets a free pass with Jacqueline.”

Melissa breaks down Jacqueline's drama

Since Jacqueline is still living in the past, the reason she’s cutting her ME-lissa Tumors out is because Melissa hesitated to answer over strippergate. Defending herself to Siggy, Melissa wonders how she would react to Jacqueline’s fingers in her face? And insists Jacqueline warning consisted of letting Melissa know some conversation happened in a salon and Teresa was there. Basically just Jacqueline looking for more credit than she deserves.

Melissa doesn’t want to talk about strippergate anymore. She doesn’t care – she’s so over it she’ll climb the umbrella pole on their picnic table for a few dollars. Why is Jacqueline dredging up something that has been buried for years – like that bondage dress Kim D should have thrown on the funeral pyre. It’s OVER! DONE! Jacqueline can take it to confession or counseling if she’s still so distraught!

Siggy, realizing that blaming Melissa for Jacqueline’s insanity is stupid, reconsiders her position and decides to attend the ENVY fashion show.

While all this was going on, Poison brings Teresa lunch and they discuss how she’s gonna take out the garbage – the literal garbage – while Juicy is locked up. It’s lovely to see them getting along. Even though they may have taken the very, very long way home, under the tunnel of Bravo cameras, I’m glad they made it. I don’t care if Teresa and Melissa are ‘faking it’ til they make it, I like them getting along. I like Teresa humanized, and Melissa too. And I do think Teresa and Poison are definitely genuine. They bring out the best and the worst in each other, as family does, and at this point I want to see the best in all of them.

Teresa discusses Joe going to prison

Teresa needs it and, more importantly, so do her girls. If Jacqueline were ever a real friend, instead of a fake and phony bitch, she would have recognized this is the time to truly put their differences behind them and be supportive of Teresa – not necessarily for Teresa, but for her kids.

Then Siggy, Dolores, Melissa, and Teresa meet for lunch. Given that Bravo is paying, Teresa orders everything off the menu, then leans over to shriek that Jacqueline is a crazy bitch who should be avoided at all costs. Adding that she is also the person who initially brought Kim D around and continues dragging her into things – alluding that Jacqueline and Kim are close and Jacqueline had to have known about strippergate beforehand.

Dolores decides if they’re going to remain friends, Teresa and Melissa aren’t allowed to talk about Jacqueline to them, and vice versa. Siggy shares that she’s gonna attend the ENVY fashion show after all, and Teresa scoffs that she knew Siggy would see the light in the end. Well, at least she’s starting to.

Then Siggy and Dolores go eat mini-popcorn and learn Jacqueline is gonna be a grandmother. Are we seriously expected to believe Ashlee wasn’t pregnant before Pete proposed? Really? Equally ludicrous is Ashlee insisting her baby is gonna be raised “organic” while her face is full of more plastic and fillers than Milania’s Barbie dolls. Mmmmmkay, honey.

Siggy

The other revelation is that Juicy invited Chris to his going away party, and said Jacqueline and the kids are also welcome. Chris is planning to go but Jacqueline has – wisely (shockingly!) – decided to stay home. Later, Dolores warns Chris that he can’t go and has to skip for Jacqueline’s sake. I think Chris has stood by Jacqueline enough! He’s patronized all her outbursts and nonsense. I think the message he NEEDS to send is that he will no longer tolerate Jacqueline’s insanity ostracizing them.

Finally, Dolores escorts Teresa to church, which was just so freaking hilarious! They both wore black fur like good mafia brides widowed to prison, and no, the church didn’t go up in flames when Teresa stepped through the doors.

In the pew, they discussed how their lives as Italians Wives is so different from that of their mothers, and why Teresa is standing by Juicy for eternity. Teresa does note that if Juicy cheated, like Frank did, Teresa would never put up with that. Dolores wisely just smiles, nods, and suggests they pray.

Dolores is smarter than she looks – and really quite savvy at negotiating the trenches of a RHONJ friendship. Girl definitely has her tranquilizer gun loaded in the ‘Do Not Feed’ section. I’m glad we’re FINALLY getting to see some of her personality. I see why she’s a good fit now.

TELL US – IS SIGGY JACQUELINE’S SOLDIER? SHOULD CHRIS GO TO JUICY’S PARTY?

Vicki Gunvalson Says She Didn’t Lie About Brooks And Claims Shannon Beador Follows Tamra Judge’s Lead Like A Little Puppet

Kelly complains about Michael

Kelly complains about Michael

Vicki Gunvalson is still standing firm, declaring that she is not guilty of anything in the whole cancer debacle and she is tired of Shannon Beador indicating otherwise. She took to her Bravo blog to share that she is fed up.

Vicki is now in the stage of her post-breakup process where she’s referring to Brooks Ayers only as “him.” We knew he was the Lord Voldemort of the Real Housewives of Orange County but now he’s truly “he who shall not be named.” She blogs, “When I went to Meghan and Jim’s party, I went in with a thought that if I see Shannon, I will simply remove myself from wherever she was. She has continued to put out to the universe that I am a liar, and I’m fed up with it. Everyone who knows me, knows my heart and knows I would never do anything like Shannon is accusing me of. I didn’t lie about “his” illness and I don’t understand why she is so fixated on this topic.” 

She continues, “Everyone who knew “him” and I, experienced the same thing I did and also believe(d) he was/is sick. I don’t know anything more than that and I’m done talking about it. I’m also DONE with her and her continued negative attitude and bashing of me and her bullying me. I’ve told her over and over again, her desire to keep my ex-boyfriend’s name and the problems I went through with him in her vocabulary is her problem and her issue. I have zero desire to utter his name, speak about him or think of him ever again. It’s been over a year since we have broken up, I’ve moved on so why can’t she? She has zero compassion for what I went through, and I can’t spend any more time discussing it with her.”

Vicki then slams Shannon for being rude by confronting her at the party. “When Shannon came up to me at the party and wanted to confront me about not acknowledging that I called her, I thought it was inappropriate timing and just plain rude. I know after I was hurt, she really didn’t care about me or how I was recovering so why make a fake phone call. I think she called me only to save face because the other ladies were so nice to me and questioned her and her lack of compassion (without me prompting them to). I’m finding out that Shannon will follow Tamra’s lead around like a little puppet. If she thinks that Tamra thought she should have phoned me or come up to me at the party, then that’s the only reason why she did it. It wasn’t sincere at all.”

Vicki explains her main issue was that her castmates could not be bothered to even just drop off some clothes for her at the hospital, not that Shannon didn’t come to visit. “Tamra thinks that I was upset that Shannon didn’t see me in the hospital which was true, but also I saw (as you all did) that Tamra and Heather thought she should have shown up too. It wasn’t just me. I had asked if one of them could run to the store and grab me some inexpensive sweat pants, t-shirt, and sandals so when I was discharged I had clothes to wear home since they were cut off when I got to the hospital. It’s not like I needed her to hold my hand, just a quick stop in to see if I needed anything would have been nice. I’m over it, moved on and really know now I can’t count on those two for help. It’s fine, I get it.”

“When I called Shannon a liar, it’s because she is. We all have lied in the past for something, whether it was a white lie, a malicious lie or something in between. I’m tired of Shannon’s negative attitude and turning so vicious towards me for nothing that I did to her. I’m tired of her continued rant that I lied about my ex and his health. I didn’t and if she has questions about HIM and the reasons he did what he did, she should contact him directly as she has his phone number. Again…very weird that she can’t let this go.”

Vicki stands firm in her claim to know a big secret, specifically something that Shannon lied about.  “The truth of the matter is, I know something that is very hurtful about the Beadors which she has lied about. I have no desire to hurt her or her family, but she has hurt me beyond words and I don’t know what to do about her anymore. I simply want her to stay away from me, to stop talking crap about me and my family for attention and to just focus on her family and what makes her happy. I don’t like this type of friendship, and don’t have these issues with my friends outside of this circle of women. I have compassion for people that are hurting, and don’t want to make things worse for her or for her family.”

Vicki reminisces about her funny friendship with Tamra, but says that Tamra turns into a shit stirrer when she’s around her minions. “Unfortunately, when Tamra gets in her little circle of “friends” (puppets), she changes and then creates problems (AKA: pot stirrer). I can’t figure out if it’s for real, or if it’s to cause drama and to get attention. When her and I are together it’s good and we have never had any issues. I’m at the point where I’m desensitized from her perpetual mood swings and screaming at me (which you will see more of when we get to Ireland). I just don’t understand her motive. Is this how she believes Christian women speak to one another? Is this something that is uplifting and inspiring? If she doesn’t respect me, or like me that’s fine. I’m tired of her dishing it out to me (and anyone else that’s in her path), and never being able to take it in return. I just want her to keep her negativity away from me. I’m not ok with name calling or hurtful comments from her anymore. If she’s not fighting or arguing with someone, she is not being Tamra. She’s done it every year with someone and quite frankly I’m tired of it…enough is enough.”

Vicki says that Kelly and her husband are working through their marriage issues and then gushes about her new BFF, “Kelly has been a good friend to me, and I to her. We have each other’s back when the heat gets turned up by these other women.”

“Now onto Steve who you met in this week’s episode. My daughter told me when I wasn’t looking, a great man would appear and it would be in God’s perfect timing. Well my daughter was once again right and God is good. He has blessed me with an incredible man when I was least expecting it. We met at a charity event back in April and have been inseparable ever since. He’s kind, he’s a Christian, has a great career, he has a beautiful family and my children and grandchildren love him. We are taking it slow, but we have a respectful, loving, and happy relationship and I am one lucky lady.”

90 Day Fiance Recap: I Can See The Cracks

90 Day Fiance recap

90 Day Fiance recap

On this season of 90 Day Fiance, it’s come down to this: Who can save themselves, and who cannot. Whereas in seasons past, we’ve seen a pretty balanced mix of true love stories (remember Amy and Danny?) and totally deranged psychopaths trapping young wives into servitude (hello, Mark and Nikki!), this season seems to be offering up one big ole’ sloppy mess of singles who travel the globe with the express purpose of making bad decisions.

Case in point: Nicole and Azan, who are still in Morocco “getting to know” one another. This week, this task involves camels. And physical exertion. Two things Nicole is decidedly not a fan of!

Before we get to recapping last night’s episode, it’s worth mentioning that 90 DF spoilers have been popping up all over the place this week about who makes it down the aisle and who calls it quits. Like all spoilers, they aren’t 100% accurate, as they’re mostly based on social media posts and viewer conjecture. However, if they are even partially true, some of these people actually come to their senses and get out of their doomed engagements. Maybe all hope is not lost for these confused souls!

CLICK THE CONTINUE READING BUTTON FOR MORE!

After arguing with Azan about his cultural boundaries, Nicole is having a nice pout. But she’s supposed to spend quality time with his family now, so she takes her pout inside his family’s home, where she plants herself on the floor like a grumpy baby with a dirty diaper. Azan comes in to join a family discussion about Nicole not respecting his culture. “I’m not asking you to kiss me in public or anything!” whines a ridiculous Nicole, but his family reminds her that public displays of affection are frowned upon. Plus, Azan is accepting of Nicole’s culture – which amounts to entitlement and french fries – so she needs to reciprocate.

Nicole claims she’s willing to be more understanding. Something tells me that her resolve will last about as long as Azan’s ability to fake his deep, abiding love for her. Or, about 10 minutes.

Chantel-Bridal-Shop-90-Day-Fiance

In Atlanta, Chantel and Pedro are still living a lie. So, Chantel goes wedding dress shopping with her friend Gege instead of confessing the truth to her family! Solid plan. Reality sets in as Chantel imagines her wedding – with no wedding guests there. Because NO ONE KNOWS she is engaged! When is this chick going to wake up and smell the 90-day clock ticking? She resolves to tell her mom the truth. But when?

In PA, Narkyia and Lowo still haven’t spoken. She can’t get a hold of her catfishing fiance, which suddenly strikes her as a red flag. She finally does manage to get his a$$ on the phone, but when questioned, Lowo is full of super believable excuses like “I lost my phone.” Then his story morphs into “someone stole my phone.” Narkyia has no way to fact check anything this dude says. But what if he’s lying again, she wonders? What if he’s not the person he says he is? Um, deep thoughts by Narkyia.

Speaking of deep, the dead-eyed Anfisa is enjoying doing nothing all day in her new apartment that Jorge scored for them. Is she looking forward to getting married? the producer asks her in an interview. “Meh” is basically her answer. She is looking forward to receiving a monthly allowance of $10 grand from Jorge per month, and a $45k wedding dress, which she tries on later that day. “Whatever makes you happy,” saps Jorge, who knows full well he is not capable of affording this woman for hire. But she did reluctantly boil noodles for him last week. Thus, totally worth it!

“I deserve expensive things that make me look beautiful,” says Anfisa. So seeing Jorge’s reluctance to buy her the $45k dress is not pleasing to her. She wonders why she came this whole way for Jorge, who told her he’d give her “everything” she wanted, if he’s not ready to make good on that promise? Jorge admits it’s hard to keep up with her expensive tastes. She basically calls him stupid and shuts his complaining down with more threats to return to Russia if he doesn’t deliver. Bottom line: Jorge has been warned again and again. She is playing it straight with him, but Jorge seems to think somehow, some way, that she will change.

Meanwhile, Pedro is back in Georgia wondering when the hell he and Chantel are going to tell her family that they’re getting married??? Chantel has set up poor Pedro for total failure by lying to her family, and he also seems to understand this. He has no chance of winning them over now, even though that is his greatest hope.

Chantel’s father comes over to work out with Pedro and get to know him better. They banter a bit, but talk turns serious when dad asks Pedro what his intentions are. Pedro is cornered, but does admit he loves Chantel. He can’t admit the total truth to dad yet though, still sticking to the lie that he’s only here to “date” Chantel and go to school. “Do you plan on marrying Chantel?” asks dad. Pedro sidesteps by claiming he doesn’t understand the question.

Well, this conversation could not be more awkward, as Chantel’s dad seems to understand that there’s clearly something deeper going on here. He sees red flags everywhere. But he’ll just have to wait until his daughter confesses the truth before he can actually act on his instincts.

In Kentucky, Matt and Alla are going wedding gown shopping. Max is along for the ride, busying himself in the play area while Alla stops to take a peek at the rings first. She and Matt chat with the salesman, who gathers that this isn’t the couple’s first marriage. But considering it’s Matt’s fourth, he hopes it’s his last! Matt basically needs a hole-punch rewards card at this wedding shop, as he’s their best customer. Alla seems unfazed, choosing a modest ring and staying upbeat despite it all.

Camel-Ride-90-Day-Fiance

Back in Morocco, Azan has planned an overnight camping trip in the desert for Nicole. He’s got camel rides organized, along with a “big surprise” of dropping her off there, then driving away. Nicole manages to stay on the camel without complaining, but is nervous about being in the desert at night. Where’s the flat sand? Where’s the AC?! She is out of her element. But she does appreciate the stars. Better to see her Arabian prince by!

After the ride, Azan leads Nicole to the tent where they’ll sleep – TOGETHER! He’s taking a chance by bunking up with her, but has apparently gotten the memo that Nicole needs to sleep with him if he’s gonna seal this jacked-up marriage deal. He’s also purchased a ring for her, which he plans to give to her tonight. Whoa! Sh*t is getting real up in this tent!

We’re left to wonder how the proposal went until next week though, as cameras cut back to Chantel, who is officially having a meltdown. She’s built her own prison, but doesn’t like the cell she’s living in now. But instead of cleaning up her lies with her family, she bickers over washing dishes with Pedro at home. Chantel decides to meet up with Gege to process her many, many issues.

At a cafe, Chantel confesses how stressed out she is, admitting she knows her parents won’t approve of this quick marriage. She’s even lied about why the TLC cameras are following them, claiming she’s just on a show about “young love.” Gege tells it to Chantel straight: She needs to tell them NOW. She’s already waited too long – she can’t wait another day. She also comments that Chantel needs a reality check about the wedding she’s planning. It needs to be simple, perhaps in a park.

Chantel-Brick-Doorway-Crying-90-Day-Fiance

Delusionally, Chantel focuses on how this is not the kind of wedding she wants! You know – the kind where no one knew you were getting married until like a day ago, you have almost no guests in attendance, and your parents are pissed you lied. When asked if she and Pedro have rings yet, Chantel goes into an even deeper tailspin. “I don’t want to talk about it! No! We don’t have any money, OKAY?” she whines, before marching off from the cameras to think about the complete toilet bowl she’s made of this engagement.

Well, looks like we’ll have to wait another week to see if Chantel is ready to put her big girl underpants on and face the family. If not, she and Pedro might as well elope (or break up) right now. This girl is spinning out, and for good reason.

TELL US: SHOULD CHANTEL JUST FESS UP ALREADY? DOES AZAN REALLY LOVE NICOLE? IS ANFISA HEADED BACK TO RUSSIA?

Big Brother Over the Top Week 2 Safety Ceremony Final Results

Big Brother Over the Top Head of Household Alex Willett wants Danielle Lickey out of the BBOTT house. Alex and the Plastics have never been a fan of Danielle and her Big Brother Over the Top game. As the house divides even more, tension rises. Alex needed to take out one of the Misfits strongest  players. This made it even more vital she targeted the only Big Brother Over the Top showmance.

Big Brother Over the Top Safety Ceremony Logo

Some conflicts started to escalate over the weekend. Scott Dennis became the subject of many BBOTT conversations. The Misfits tried to make sure that everyone saw Scott as a rat. The Plastics and Monte Massongill acknowledged his rat behavior. However, they used the leaked information to pull Scott closer to their side.

Justin Duncan, and Monte  and Shelby Stockton also found themselves in several conflicts with one another. This just made Alex wonder if Justin should be her target. Instead of targetting him, she tried to build a little trust with Jason Roy and him.

She informed Just in of her plan to nominate Danielle and Shane.

The first BBOTT care package went to Kryssie Ridolfi, who used it to save Jason. He  joined Morgan Willett, Kryssie, and Whitney Hogg in the safety circle on Saturday. Sunday, Justin, Shelby, Monte, and Scott joined them.

Big Brother Over the Top Shane and Danielle

Alex nominated Danielle Lickey and Shane Chapman for eviction on Big Brother Over the Top week 2.

Who Dies on The Walking Dead? This Terrifying New Clip Has a Few Clues

The Walking DeadWe may never love Jeffrey Dean Morgan the same way again. It was clear based on the ending of season six that going forward, The Walking Dead was going to be harder to watch than ever...

Melissa Gorga Says Jacqueline Laurita Is “Completely Unstable” And Her “Crazy Outbursts” Have Nothing To Do With PMS!

Is Melissa a phony bitch?

Is Melissa a phony bitch?

Melissa Gorga isn’t kidding when she describes Jacqueline Laurita‘s behavior in Vermont as “all all sorts of CRAZY.” Because, well, Jacqueline’s behavior in general is pretty much completely crazy.

The ladies of Real Housewives Of New Jersey tried to take a relaxing vacation, but “obviously that didn’t happen.” For Melissa, At least one thing was cleared up in Vermont – she had a serious epiphany about Jacqueline!

That night in Vermont confirmed for me that Jacqueline is a sh–ty friend, completely unstable, and someone that NEVER had an interest in helping our family or being my friend,” seethes Melissa.

CLICK THE CONTINUE READING BUTTON FOR MORE!

“Her crazy outbursts don’t come from hurt, they are calculated and meant to cause problems,” continues Melissa. “You can’t blame this on PMS. That’s just weak.”

During the awful finger-pointing, Melissa initially hoped the trip could be salvaged. That blew up in her face before the drinks were even served. “The conversation between Teresa and Jacqueline escalated very quickly and once again focused on the PAST and ‘soldiers’ rather than the issue at hand. Jacqueline immediately came at me demanding that I back her up.”

Melissa avoided answering Jacqueline’s inquisition about the Posche Fashion Show, because she’s a woman with newfound independence, “not a child,” and she won’t be spoken to in a demeaning manor unless your name is Joe Gorga!

“I asked Jacqueline what I ever did to her to warrant such a vile attack and she wouldn’t answer me either. She wants me to back her up because she ‘backed me up,’ but her ‘support’ was never genuine or for me. It’s more important for her to prove she is right and try to convince people that Teresa is a horrible person,” asserts Melissa. “Speaking of horrible people, look at how quick she is to pick up the phone to call Kim D. She is the one who is bringing her around the group this time, not Teresa.”

Oh, and also, Melissa now agrees with Teresa that Jacqueline was not that innocent about the plan to accuse her of being a stripper!

“Let me be clear, I am not trying to re-write history. Believe me, I KNOW who was involved in the events that happened at the fashion show five years ago and no matter what any of them say, none of their hands were clean,” writes Melissa in a her blog. “And I hesitated to answer her because quite honestly, I think that while she did warn me, seeing how invested she is in KNOWING everyone’s business, I don’t believe she was completely in the dark as to what was going to go down that night.”

TIME MACHINE: Revisit The Posche Fashion Show Drama!

“It doesn’t matter to me anymore,” adds Melissa. “I agreed to let go of the past and move on with Teresa, and I meant it. Jacqueline just CAN’T do that and always has to throw in our face one of the most sensitive issues Teresa and I had.”

Melissa also had another epiphany: fame is no longer the most important thing in her life, family is. “For me, there are relationships that are more important than focusing on who is right or wrong. My biggest priority is keeping the family together because when this show isn’t around, that’s who will be there.”

Tonight the ladies of RHONJ have finally escaped Vermont, but they definitely have not left the drama behind! Siggy and Dolores find themselves stuck in the middle of Teresa and Jacqueline. Melissa deals with a crisis at Envy, and Chris Laurita shares some upsetting news about their family. Meanwhile Teresa struggles as Joe’s prison sentence draws closer.

Reality Tea will be live-tweeting, so join us there or here in the comments!

With ‘far worse’ Trump statements on Apprentice tapes, will footage be released or leaked?

Big Brother Spoilers: Have-Not Reveal, Round 1 Safety, & Save-A-Friend Awarded

Earlier this afternoon, the first group of Have-Nots in Big Brother: Over the Top, as voted by the fans, were revealed to the houseguests (HG).  Three lucky HGs will dine on nothing but the allocated ‘slop’, take cold showers, and sleep in special designated Have-Not beds.

The slop was some sort of oatmeal concoction that didn’t look the least bit appetizing.  The Have-Not room was redecorated for this season of Big Brother.  Production bailed on the Big Brother 18 carnival theme for the designated Have-Not room and unveiled the haunted house theme for Big Brother: Over the Top.

Although the beds are no longer the horribly uncomfortable bumper cars from last season, the new Have-Not sleeping quarters resemble scaled-down trampolines with rope webbing over the top surface to simulate a spider’s web.  Suffice to say, any HG that  is an arachnophobic, will have continual nightmares while made to sleep in this room.  The good news for the newly crowned Have-Nots is that they cannot be voted as Have-Nots back-to-back so they will get at least a week reprieve.

img_0227

America voted to punish Monte Massongill, Scott Dennis, and Morgan Willett this week as the first Have-Nots of Big Brother: Over the Top.

Later in the evening, the first round of this week’s Safety ceremony took place in the Big Brother house.  Alex, the current Head of Household (HOH), has the responsibility of naming the HGs that will be safe this week.  After the second round of the Safety ceremony tomorrow, the two HGs that did not receive safety will be the two HGs nominated to the block for eviction.

Once those two HGs are announced to America tomorrow, voting will open for fans to pick the third and final HG to be nominated to the block for eviction.  Fans are allotted 20 votes and voting closes Monday morning limiting the time available to cast your votes.

Alex has made it clear that her targets this week are Danielle Lickey and Shane Chapman.  Alex has made these two HGs her target to break up their showmance in the house.  She has indicated that Shane’s eviction would be the best for her game at this juncture over evicting Danielle.

Alex is somewhat concerned about her targets after the Have-Not reveal earlier today.  She played her hand right tonight and left herself with a life raft by waiting to nominate Monte and Scott for safety until the second round tomorrow.  If something happens between tonight and the second round of the Safety ceremony tomorrow, she will still have the option to nominate Danielle and Shane for safety and leave Monte and/or Scott as the HGs nominated to the block.

img_0224

For the first round of the Safety ceremony, Alex gave safety to:

  • Kryssie Ridolfi
  • Whitney Hogg
  • Neeley Jackson
  • Morgan Willett

Important to note, Jason Roy did not need to receive safety from Alex today.  Right before the Safety ceremony, Kryssie used her recently awarded America’s Care Package “Save-a-Friend” on her ‘ride or die’, Jason Roy.  Jason is completely safe for the week.  Unlike the HGs that receive safety from the Safety ceremonies and can be nominated to the block as a replacement nominee after the Power of Veto competition, Jason cannot be put up as a replacement nominee this week guaranteeing his complete safety this week.

Lauren Bushnell: I felt betrayed by Ben Higgins and resentful for much longer than I should have after 'The Bachelor'



Lauren Bushnell put on a brave face for the media after her engagement to Ben Higgins aired on The Bachelor finale in March, but on the inside, she was really hurting.

Big Brother 18: Paul Abrahamian & Victor Arroyo Still Best ‘Friendship’ Buddies

Although Paul Abrahamian and Victor Arroyo are no longer together inside the Big Brother 18 house, they are still spending plenty of time together enjoying their bromance ‘friendship’ outside of the house.  The Sitting Ducks duo have been making appearances together on a whirlwind tour after the Big Brother season finally come to an end after 99 long days.

Paul and Victor will be appearing is in Edmonton, Alberta Canada next weekend for a ‘Friendship Party’ at the Ranch Roadhouse.

In addition to making fan appearances together, Paul and Victor will be making the highly anticipated cameo on the CBS soap opera the Bold and the Beautiful on Tuesday, October 25th with none other than fellow houseguest Da’Vonne Rogers.  According to CBS, the trio will be sharing the screen with Don Diamond and Darin Brooks, but their exact roles have been kept under wraps.

Although Paul walked away as the runner-up of Big Brother 18 with only $50,000 while fellow houseguest Nicole Franzel won the grand prize of a half of a million dollars, Paul may be the last one laughing all the way to the bank.  Since Big Brother 18 has ended, Paul’s popularity has skyrocketed as well as his previously established clothing line, Dead Skull Apparel.

Paul was quick to monetize his infamous catch phrases from inside the Big Brother house like “Friendship”, “Never Cared”, and “Pissed” among others by adding these to his existing t-shirt line.  Pablo the pelican has even achieved fame with his own t-shirt. The 23 year-old business owner is enjoying a large jump in sales for his clothing line in addition to selling out of the t-shirts touting his newly coined phrases, according to Hollywood Reporter.

Paul told Hollywood Reporter that he has been busy answering the tons of fan mail he received while in the Big Brother house, and he plans on answering each and every letter personally.  He also revealed he has yet to receive his runner-up $50,000 check from CBS and claims it’s a scam, jokingly.  Paul said, “Money doesn’t really bring me happiness.  I’m an experience kind of guy.  I’m a musician and own my own clothing brand so I’m just going to invest into my creations and hopefully people dig them.”

Victor, on the other hand, has been thrilled to get back into the gym and get his “el fit Vic” body back into shape.  As the winner of America’s Favorite Player, Victor is feeling the fan love as well.  Victor has even mentioned the possibility of appearing on the CBS hit Amazing Race.  Both Paul and Victor entertained us for months while inside the Big Brother house and hopefully will continue to do so now that they are on the outside with all of us now.
