Melissa Gorga’s Minions Launch Second Twitter Attack on Her Ex Bryan ‘Bulldog’ Bowen; Teresa Giudice Extends a Special Invite to Milania Hair Care Launch Party to be Filmed by Bravo with the Entire RHONJ Cast

Teresa Giudice Extends a Special Invite to Her Milania Hair Care Launch Party to be Filmed by Bravo with the Entire RHONJ Cast in Attendance

Teresa Giudice extended a special invite to salon owners for the launch of Milania Hair Care. The party will be filmed by Bravo and the entire cast of RHONJ will be there. Considering her castmates from season 4 are all insanely jealous of her business success and have barely talked to her since September 27, 2011, what could possibly go wrong at this event?!

Melissa Gorga’s Minions Launch Second Twitter Attack on Her Ex Boyfriend

“If u wouldn’t have attacked my surgery and wished me dead yas would of had another pass.. NOT THIS TIME!!! This is for all who have had 1 :)

“Follow the arrows it will all add up! I have nothing to gain or lose. Didn’t even wanna be involved in this.”

“I tweet positive & never once did I mention I was her ex! It came 2 me.”

“I didn’t wanna be brought into this.”

“I guess it’s coming out after a year of dealing with this BS that I tried so hard to avoid. I turned people away & changed my number 3 times.”

“Defending myself is NOT wanting 15 minutes of Fame!!”

Melissa Gorga, the pathological liar who can’t fight her own fights, sent her minions to verbally attack her ex boyfriend, Bryan, on Twitter in an attempt to discredit him because he tells the truth and she wants to keep the truth hidden.

The vile tweets from the QoM camp, Melissa’s mouthpiece, began on January 30, 2013 (this is the second assault on Bryan: the first Twitter assault was on January 22, 2013, six days after Bryan’s Twitter handle was revealed, unbeknownst to him).

UPDATE: On January 31, 2013, radaronline (see story below) was misinformed by a source about Bryan. Radaronline is reporting that insiders are saying Byran “inserted himself into the drama” and that “he plans to bring the drama.” Radaronline is misleading readers with these statements, plus they are saying Bryan will be on season 5 of RHONJ. Bryan has not agreed to be filmed and is not under contract with Bravo nor has he contacted Bravo to appear on season 5. Up until his Twitter handle was revealed in a comment by ‘anonymous’ at FW, Bryan had avoided involvement and, according to him, had changed his number three times to stay out of the drama.

“I do not know where radaronline.com gets their info, but I have not stated I was doing anything.” – Bryan, January 31, 2013, Twitter

Radaronline: Melissa Gorga’s Ex-Boyfriend Slams Her, Claims To Have ‘Atomic Bomb’ That Will Rock RHONJ

By Radaronline.com
January 31, 2013

Melissa Gorga‘s past is coming back to haunt her.

The Real Housewives of New Jersey star is going to be at the center of drama on this season of the hit Bravo show because her ex-boyfriend Bryan “Bulldog” has come forward and not only slams Melissa calling her “fake,” but also claims to have some salacious scoop on his ex that will rock the show, RadarOnline.com is reporting.

“Time and a place for everything just know the phone call was an atomic bomb and not for me tick tick tick lol,” Bryan tweeted last week.

According to insiders, Bryan has inserted himself into the RHONJ show this season and plans to bring the drama.

“Just so this clear I’m not trying to make anyone believe anything I just speak the truth! It’s how I roll.. ;) ” he tweeted.

Melissa and Bryan dated before she married Joe Gorga and he takes a stab at his ex making it sound like she married him for the money.

“I remember the Friday nite u said 2 me, stop seeing other girls or I will marry that millionaire,” he wrote on January 25.

“3 months Lata you were married Lol.”

As RadarOnline.com previously reported, Melissa and Joe owe a whopping $2.25 million on their home that they initially paid only $450,000 for, and Bryan claims it’s all part of the “fake” image they’re trying to portray on the show.

“It’s ok, she’s so desperate to keep her fake image & fake fame,” Bryan said. “That’s the level she is going to.”

The Real Housewives of New Jersey is currently taping Season 5, but you’ll have to wait until it airs to see what dirt Bryan has on Melissa!

Correction to Crazy Wife’s tweet above — it should be directed at the ‘assholes’, Melissa and her sisters (and her husband), for trying to take down the ‘loving family’, the Giudices. For proof, read the other 124 articles here at Fame-Whorgas:

On a side note, Lysa, in addition to tweeting Caroline Manzo, has also tweeted Caroline’s mother Nettie, sister Cookie and brother Jamie:

Melissa Gorga and Her Sisters (and Jacqueline Laurita) Continue to Taunt Teresa Giudice About Caroline Manzo Winning the Meatball Contest on The Rachel Ray Show Three Years Ago

Ever since Caroline won the meatball cookoff on The Rachel Ray Show in May of 2010, the rest of the cast and their family members have taunted Teresa about it to this day, almost three years later. On January 27, 2013, Melissa tweeted about frying meatballs just two hours after Teresa tweeted a photo of Joe making her recipe, “Juicy Joe’s meatballs.” A few weeks earlier, on January 6, Lysa Simpson tweeted Caroline Manzo, saying, “I’m going old school and frying the meatballs.”

SS said on January 27, 2013 at Fame-Whorgas:

I personally think Melissa is trying to compete with Teresa in business. If you notice she includes #Italianstyle at the end of her meatball tweet. She trying to convince people to buy her book and workout video LOL. She also tweets about going to mass, which she never does and doing Sunday dinner, which Teresa stated in her tweet LOL… I also remember Teresa tweeting about going to the gym on January 18, and then Melissa tweeted the same thing an hour later:

Teresa Giudice ?@Teresa_Giudice 3h

I had a great morning at the gym. Took 2 classes with Arlene and Cornell. #feelinggreat

Melissa Gorga ?@melissagorga 2h

Walking out of the gym feels so good! Happy Friday!

Is it because she doesn’t want people buying any of Teresa’s products…once again underhand jabs.

Someone asked Melissa if she was tweeting to compete with Teresa, and she said that some people over analyze (I’m paraphrasing, but it pretty much what she said).

Rachel said on January 27, 2013 at Fame-Whorgas:

BTW, Teresa tweeted a picture Joe was making meatballs…two hours later…Melissa is frying meatballs.

When does it end?! I know pasta and gravy is a big thing for Italian families on Sunday, but girl!, you tweet it two hours after your sister-in-law does and you claim she copies you? Please, do as an ostrich does and bury your head.

During season 4, episode 2, Jacqueline was on camera frying meatballs, and the entire cast was at her home watching and talking smack about the Giudices as they waited for them to arrive.

tre 927d

Since those fried 1/16th Italian meatballs get around, they are making an appearance at Jacqueline’s get-together where fried meatballs are the main dish. The Giudices are also making an appearance so they can get bashed by everybody some more work things out. – Real Faux Houseswives, May 1, 2012, Recap of Season 4 Episode 2

Teresa Giudice is a best-selling cookbook author, which Caroline Manzo and the rest of the cast resent, so they like to rub it in Teresa’s face that Caroline won the meatball cookoff contest on The Rachel Ray Show in 2010. The following is the video from The Rachel Ray Show and a description of the episode:

Week after week, the “Garden State” becomes the “Drama State” as tensions flare and tables going flying on Bravo’s hit show, The Real Housewives of New Jersey. Now the spectacle is spilling over into Rachael’s studio in New York City when Housewives stars Teresa Guidice and Caroline Manzo throw down in a “Rival Ray” challenge to see who makes the better meatballs!

“When people taste my meatballs, it’s a little bit of heaven,” proclaims Caroline, who says that the taste of her Mama Manzo’s Miraculous Meatballs can stand on its own. “Teresa has to disguise her meatballs in her gravy,” she says. “Not me – I’m commando. My meatballs are gonna kick your meatballs’ butt!”

“Who eats a meatball without sauce?” wonders Teresa. “It doesn’t exist!” This fiery housewife named her Joe’s Juicy Meatballs after her husband Joe (“he’s absolutely juicy and delicious”), and claims that her recipe is the best because it’s made by a true Italian. “Caroline, she’s as Italian as the Olive Garden!”

Rachael knows better than to get in the middle of a battle between these two women, so she calls in the cast of Jersey Boys to judge these Jersey girls! The four stars of the smash Broadway show explain what they will be looking for in the ladies’ balls: “Flavor and consistency; deliciousness, texture, and beauty.” Watch the video above to see which housewife wins the “Rival-Ray” challenge!

[The Rachel Ray Show, May 24, 2010]

Note: Rachel Ray judged the sandwich contest between the men’s and women’s teams on Celebrity Apprentice, which aired in February 2012: the women submitted a sandwich purported to be Teresa’s (Teresa says otherwise), and Rachel choose the men’s sandwich as the winner. Perhaps Rachel Ray is doing Andy’s bidding just like Wendy Williams, Kelly Ripa, Anderson Cooper, Kathy Griffin and Us Weekly.

The “Olive Garden Italian” quip was written by a producer of The Rachel Ray Show. Teresa included the joke in her cookbook, which Caroline used as an excuse to harass Teresa, starting in the season 3 finale, when the cookbook became the center of attention. The cookbook scene in the season 3 finale was filmed at the start of season 4, but Bravo moved it to the final episode of season 3 (Albie explained this in an interview) to end the season with conflict, and to use it as a continuing storyline for season 4.

In her Bravo blog, Teresa explained the story behind the “Olive Garden” comment:

Since the Season 3 finale of The Real Housewives of New Jersey, Teresa Giudice‘s joke about Caroline Manzo being “as Italian as The Olive Garden” has been at the center of a lot of the drama on the Bravo reality show. The Manzo family wasn’t laughing when they read it, but did they know about the joke before the book came out? FINALLY, Teresa explains it all.

“In 2010, I began writing Fabulicious! Teresa’s Family Cookbook,” Giudice explains in her Bravo blog. “I had just filmed a Housewives scene with Caroline and Jacqueline and cried, telling them how they were my family too. And Caroline and I appeared on The Rachel Ray Show together for a meatball ‘throw down.’ We were supposed to good-naturedly ‘trash-talk’ each other. Caroline said I had to ‘disguise my meatballs with gravy,’ and that her meatballs were going to ‘kick my meatballs’ butts!’

“I literally couldn’t think of any fake insults except, ‘A meatball without sauce? Who does that?’” says Teresa. And in her defense, if you saw her during the improv challenge on Celebrity Apprentice, you know that she doesn’t exactly think very quickly on her feet.

“Then, one of the Rachel Ray producers came up with a line I thought was pretty funny,” Giudice continues. “‘Caroline’s as Italian as The Olive Garden.’ The idea was that since I was conceived in Italy and Italian is my first language, that I cook the traditional way. Caroline’s family is Italian-American, like The Olive Garden, and that’s how she cooks. I bake my meatballs in sauce; she fries hers with no sauce”

According to Teresa, she and Caroline “laughed throughout the show,” and the reason that she recycled the joke in the cookbook was because she was including her meatball recipe and referenced the Rachel Ray meatball challenge, adding that while she’s not a fan of The Olive Garden, “I am, however, a huge fan of Caroline Manzo.”

It wasn’t until after the cookbook was released that Caroline and her family took issue with the comment.

[Source]

This comment about Caroline being as Italian as the Olive Garden was written by a producer, not Teresa. Teresa also explained in her Bravo blog:

I didn’t take offense when they were all making fun of Skinny Italian on camera because I knew they were joking. What I wrote about the Manzos in Fabulicious! was the same thing: a joke. And not even a mean joke, a repeated joke that was made up for a fake feud on the “Rachel Ray” show. And I think my millions of compliments to the Manzos in the book make it very, very clear I was kidding. Actually, since the book came out, not one person, not ONE, has ever written me or said to me at one of my book signings that what I wrote about Caroline was mean. And I sold a lot of books. I think everyone gets it about my books.

The Sleeping ‘Bulldog’, Bryan Bowen, Has Been Awakened; Joe Gorga Sold His Parents’ Home Out from Under Them

The Sleeping ‘Bulldog’ Has Been Awakened

Melissa Gorga’s ex Bryan, AKA “Bulldog”, never asked to be involved in this but, as evidenced by his recent tweets, he has made it very clear that he stands for the truth. Here are some of Bryan’s (@bulldog_nj) tweets:

“So I get the phone call today that she says she’s not worried about me making it on the show because my tumor is back and I will be dead.”

“They’re hoping I will just go away ‘NOW’ or like she said, Die from my tumor. We’ll I’m not and I am ALIVE TODAY! Never wake a sleeping Giant!”

“I am back and fourth in NYU great hospital and I have one of the best surgeons in the world. God is in my life, I’ll be just fine :)

“Didn’t kill me the 1st time, it’s not gonna kill me this time. I am blessed. I was 24 hours away from being paralyzed & blind.” pic.twitter.com/Hu9erHyF

“The ink on my body explains my story Demons of the past & The Angels of Today that r in my Life! It doesn’t come off & it doesn’t change.”

“Just so this clear, I’m not trying to make anyone believe anything. I just speak the truth! It’s how I roll. ;)

“Believe in yourself, that’s all that matters.”

“I don’t have to look in her mirror or live with her. She has to do that all by herself. I know the TRUTH & so does she.”

“I am in to good of a place in Life, they can say whatever they want about me far far away.”

“She can’t make me look bad cause I have made mistakes in life and I own up to them. I am not perfect, who is!?I can look myself in the mirror.”

[She won't meet you on a show. She will "leak" bs]  She won’t cause I can say too much. I’m the one who has all the answers to everyone’s questions, the TRUTH.”

“I have to say I have chewed tougher steaks then anyone that has every been on the show rhwnj #justsaying. If the time comes I will keep it real, that is a promise. Some things are right some are wrong.”

“I don’t have to proof anything to anyone, but if this keeps up, the best is yet to come & I haven’t even gotten started…always be yourself.”

“Man I always believed in karma but NOW I REALLY BELIEVE!! LOL, ya did it to yourself.”

“Gods puts people in your life for a reason, and removes them for a better reason. ;) thank god!”

“Right now there thinking how dare he lol, but it’s ok when you do the dirty work to others right!? lol no one knows better than I do.. “

“It’s ok, she’s so desperate to keep her fake image & fake fame, that’s the level she is going to. I’m all good! Xo.”

“I get it, your sisters have your back. I have a sister 2 & we would die for each other, but when 1 of us is wrong, we don’t cosign each others BS.”

“UR family is suppose 2b the people that teach u right from wrong, not support & encourage bad behavior!”

“Maybe if u go on realty TV you should not act as if this were a movie and hurt people doing it.”

“I guess it’s coming out after a year of dealing with this BS that I tried so hard to avoid. I turned people away & changed my number 3 times.”

“Follow the arrows it will all ad up! I have nothing to gain or lose… Didn’t even wanna be involved in this.”

“The Fighter in me will always Be! Never will go away… Guess you took my kindness for weakness. #selfmade”

“Well considering they claim I’m broke, lets do it lol. They said I wanna ride her coattails, ok, u rode mine long enough.”

“I might have to appear just cause I know now that it’s killing them.”

“That pic u have of her and the dog ‘gucci’ saddens me. She gave him up when she moved in with Joe. She loved him but $ more.”

“I remember the Friday nite u said 2 me, stop seeing other girls or I will marry that millionaire. 3 months Lata you were married Lol.”

“I bought her that cross, it was kind of like giving an exorcism. Lol I tried to help her.”

“What’s funny is she would always tell me her brother in law is a lot like me ‘juicy’ then when I saw him on TV I saw why. He don’t put on act.”

No bro, you broke up with her 10, I mean 7,  shit 5 yrs ago. BAHAHAHAHA lmao: “I just got that haha”

“Her definition of Jesus is $, that’s why she always says, Thank u Jesus. sad”

“Funny how all the plotting yas do is behind closed doors and very quietly public now. Hmmm funny… Still 10 steps ahead.”

“Let me set something straight I don’t Hate anyone, it’s not in my heart TODAY! Like I said if confronted I will just tell the TRUTH! ;)

“So I hear the new attack on me will be that I am ‘mentally disabled’ cause of my surgery, if I speak lol, that I don’t know what I’m saying.”

“Addiction is also not something to attack people on. So sad! For the record, I live a sober life Today by my own choice!”

“Melissa was this bear in front of your house lol.” pic.twitter.com/wB1YVFJ8

“Man talk about the possibility of the “perfect storm” coming… Hmmm I just found some interesting pictures with dates on them.. Hmmm”

“Really!? really!? lol Keep talking… I will keep exposing ya 3 hamsters.” pic.twitter.com/8CSG004r

“Now you r doctors too, right!? Teacher, singer, stripped, actress… C’mon, give it a rest already & define ‘cokehead’, people suffer from addiction”

“Remember I never said she was a stripper or not a stripper, I do know but I have not stated yet. Facts :)

Note: Fame-Whorgas sometimes adds spaces and punctuation and corrects typos in tweets to make them easier to read.

We have witnessed the sweeping force and influence that is Bravo, with its far-reaching tentacles within the entertainment industry, touching talk shows such as Wendy Williams, Kelly Ripa, Kathy Griffin, and Anderson Cooper, as well as tabloids such as Us Weekly. We hope that Bryan finds a good public relations agent and that he heeds the warnings and accepts the words of support offered by FW readers at the link here — we have his back!

Joe Gorga Sold His Parents’ Home Out from Under Them

In February 2001, while using his parents’ home at 281 Maitland Ave. in Paterson, NJ, as his primary address (he may have been still living at home), 27-year old Joe Gorga bought a lot in Franklin Lakes for $345,000 with the intention of one day building a custom home on it (probably to flip for profit).

Fifteen months later, on May 15, 2002, Joe bought a home to use as his primary residence at 259 Black Oak Ridge Road in Wayne, NJ, for $510,000 (instrument #2002056041*) — he took out a $408,000 mortgage on the home in his name only with NJ Lenders Corp. (instrument #2002056042*), which means his down payment was $102,000.

Almost a year later, in March 2003, Joe first met Melissa Marco during Spring Break in Cancun (she was 24; he was 29) — they hung out and partied as a group, but she wasn’t interested in him because he was too short and not her type. Upon returning home to New Jersey, Joe pursued her and visited her while she worked at Lookers Gentlemen’s Club, but she didn’t want anything to do with him.

Determined to win over Melissa by impressing her with wealth, Joe decided to build a 5,576 SF custom home on the Franklin Lakes lot he purchased more than two years earlier, in early 2001.

Joe needed his parents help, so three months after Joe first met Melissa, on June 19, 2003, his parents sold their home in Paterson, NJ, for $256,000 (instrument #2003079517*) and moved into Joe’s home at 259 Black Oak Ridge Road — this is the home Joe Gorga talked about in season 4, the one he later sold out from under them.

During season 4, Joe Gorga said that he owned the house that his parents lived in, but then sold it, and now is paying their rent while he looks for a little ranch house for them. In the episode where Joe and Teresa go to therapy together, Joe talks about an article saying that he took money from their mom, and that Teresa and Juicy are building a house — or garage apartment — for them. In the stairwell of the therapist’s building, we hear audio of Joe telling Teresa that the tabloid sh*t has to stop, and her claiming that she didn’t put anything out there, and him yelling at her not to lie. And then Joe yells, “You guys want to move ‘em into that f*cking shack that you built. He don’t want to move there!” And then Teresa says that Joe should buy their parents a house, and what’s the big deal since he’s doing so well. If she had the money, she says, she would f*cking give it to them. And then Joe calls her out on her expensive purse before yelling that she doesn’t f*cking get it. [Source]

Black Oak Ridge Rd

Joe completed construction on the Franklin Lakes home at 149 Pulis Avenue in 2003; impressed by the home, Melissa began dating Joe in October of that year. This is the home Melissa was referring to when Teresa claims she said:

“I wasn’t stupid like my sisters; of course when I saw his house I was going to jump on that shit.”

In December 2003, a couple months after they started dating, Melissa moved into Joe’s Franklin Lakes home.

“That pic u have of her and the dog ‘gucci’ saddens me. She gave him up when she moved in with Joe. She loved him but $ more.” – Melissa’s ex boyfriend, Bryan, January 25, 2013, Twitter (@bulldog_nj)

Eight months later, in August 2004, Melissa married Joe.

“I remember the Friday nite u said 2 me, stop seeing other girls or I will marry that millionaire. 3 months Lata you were married Lol.”Melissa’s ex boyfriend, Bryan, January 25, 2013, Twitter (@bulldog_nj)

“What’s funny is she would always tell me her brother in law is a lot like me ‘juicy’ then when I saw him on TV I saw why. He don’t put on act.”Melissa’s ex boyfriend, Bryan, January 24, 2013, Twitter (@bulldog_nj)

Less than a year later, on May 5, 2005, with the value of his homes in Franklin Lakes and Wayne skyrocketing because of the real estate bubble, Joe and Melissa purchased a ‘shore house’ in Toms River, NJ, for $450,000.

A little more than a year later, on August 7, 2006, at the peak of the real estate bubble, Joe sold their Franklin Lakes home for $2.45 million, making a significant profit ($1 million+).

On October 11, 2007, they purchased a very modest home at 491 Summer Street in Paterson, NJ for $170,000. It is unclear if they lived there or rented a home somewhere else, content to have money in the bank. Melissa said that she and Joe rented a home while he was building the mansion in Montville — the mortgage document for their construction loan listed their address as 35 Gravel Hill Road, Kinnelon, NJ.

Everything changed in 2007 when Teresa was cast on RHONJ. For 11 months before filming began in 2008, Teresa mulled over the decision to join the cast or not (as explained by Andy Cohen on the June 17, 2012, episode of WWHL — she kept dropping in and out). During this time, unlike Teresa, Melissa and Joe were very anxious to join the show. She and Joe began looking for an estate lot to buy near Teresa so they could be close to her and hopefully be taped along with her, living an upper-class lifestyle.

Teresa Giudice Should Have Thrown Melissa Gorga’s Words Right Back at Her

Throughout the airing of season 4, Melissa waited for Teresa to publish her Bravo blog for each episode before she would publish her own. Teresa needs to do that to Melissa during the airing of season 5, and then take Melissa’s words and throw them right back at her.

The following are highlights, in chronological order, taken from Melissa Gorga’s season 4 Bravo blogs, and altered as if Teresa wrote them. In red are the words I added so that the sentence would appear to have been written by Teresa; Melissa’s words with the strikethrough should be ignored when reading the quotes — I left them in so you could go back and read what Melissa actually wrote.

When I talk it out and forgive and let something go, I truly mean it.

I was done with all the petty games and nonsense, and Teresa Melissa said she was too. So with that in mind, yes, I was a little confused when the cookbook came out and she threw a dig at me. I was a little taken aback, because I thought we decided not to go down that road, but I decided to let this pass and not make a big deal of it.

It does make me think maybe Teresa Melissa had no intention of moving on and was just being nice for the cameras.

As the season goes on, you see how we did let it go and decided to move forward and keep trying to just enjoy being together and have his sister and her family my brother and his family in our life.

I was trying to put the issues between Teresa Melissa and I behind us, as I thought we both agreed to do, but I started to realize and now can definitely say after watching these past few episodes and reading her blogs that’s not at all what Teresa Melissa was trying to do.

I feel like Teresa Melissa is constantly looking for any reason she can to say I’m a bad wife sister, SIL, aunt, mother and friend. I honestly can’t help but feel that she is projecting the issues in her life onto mine. Does she think that if my marriage goes badly hers will get better?

Does she think that if she puts the negative attention on me then it will not be on her?

Teresa Melissa obviously hasn’t learned her lesson because in last week’s blog she continues to talk about the rumors she hears about my marriage.

She won’t let up and I don’t know how she can look at herself in the mirror at this point.

We are all trying really hard to move past the spot we are at and start enjoying each other.

Remember, when these episodes were shot last summer, I was trying to move on from the horrible place Teresa Melissa and I had been.

Regardless of what Teresa Melissa says about our relationship before RHONJ, there was a time that BOTH of us were being very vindictive to each other. I won’t deny that, but since joining she joined the show, I haven’t taken opportunities to throw her troubles in her face.

Teresa Melissa holds grudges like no other, and I can’t control that. She has to decide her family is important enough to her and let it go.

What’s starting to confuse me now is that you will start to see some pretty amazing times between me and Teresa Melissa.

What you will see if you pay attention is that Teresa Melissa is trying to take me down every chance she gets.

I am trying to move on, but quite honestly she is making it impossible.

I’m a smart girl and I can figure out why she is doing this. Teresa Melissa likes to be the center of attention. Be beneath her or get the hell out of her way.

This is what life is about, being with your closest friends and family.

I know I’m never going to get her to totally change the way she treats me, but as long as she backs off my marriage and my brother’s relationship with his side of the family, we can do this.

I’m going to give her the chance to prove it.

I’m going to be optimistic and put my all into the relationship. I really do want it to work. I feel like we are both only I am really going to try and fix this.

I think it is very obvious that I have never been the problem here. She makes me the problem and she constantly blames me for everything. I guess she doesn’t want the world to think that it’s her and her family or her relationship with her brother who are trying to turn my brother and my friends against me that is failing.

It was great to see Teresa and Joe Joe and I getting along at the party. See how easy it is without Melissa’s interference? Just enjoying each other! And then Melissa had to take another dig I loved being able to play with Teresa about the sprinkle cookies!

I just want a happy, normal relationship with her so that we can get our families together. Is that so hard? It’s not for me!

I’m happy Teresa Melissa is getting to the point where she is realizing that life is too short to worry about the petty things. I hope she is going to start having a more positive attitude about my marriage, my career music, and my kids, and just stop overanalyzing me and everything I do. It must be draining for her to worry about me all day and worry about how we are living our life.

I would never do anything to sabotage this good thing we have going. So as long as Teresa Melissa doesn’t, I don’t see how anything could ever go wrong again. Does it stay like that? Well you will have to keep watching and see.

It definitely bothered me when she said I lip synced at my release party. I never she questioned her my cooking and said she I NEVER would. That is her my business and livelihood, what kind of person would I be is she to try if I tried to make people not believe in her me?

Melissa wrote in her blog that when we do Sunday pasta at Teresa’s my house, my mother-in-law cookshow can she not so I don’t understand what the big deal is telling lies like that?

The California trip was amazing, and you haven’t seen anything yet. The best stuff is still coming! We had so much fun on that trip. I can honestly tell you from the bottom of my heart that I loved every single minute of it. I’m glad Teresa and Jacqueline and I talked. I can’t help but sometimes feel like if Teresa Melissa says she’s wearing black, then she’s definitely wearing white. It’s just my gut feeling, but I’m putting all this aside for the sake of the family and just really enjoying her and Joe’s company. I She can see that my husband my brother is happy and that she is I am too, so that’s all that really matters. To hell with my gut! Right? I can’t believe this all took place a year ago.

It is clear that Caroline does not have to deal with Teresa Melissa. She is not her family, and luckily she can walk away. Caroline is not a fake person and she tells you exactly how she feels you should think. It’s very obvious how she feels about Teresa Melissa and why she feels that way. I will say I got a sick feeling in my stomach when Caroline lied and said she’s been in the car with Teresa me and heard Teresa me bashing Joe and me my brother and Melissa to her my mother. Joe and I suffers all the time because of the wall Teresa Melissa tries to put up between us his parents. When they Joe and Melissa are upset for no reason at all, my kids my parents don’t get to see their only grandfather other grandchildren. Teresa Melissa lied and tried to poison everyone’s minds against us me, but why his own parents including my own brother and my friend of more than 10 years. It takes a person with a very, very small conscience to do that.

The sooner she stops trying to hurt other people, the sooner her own life will get better.

It’s not fair to do these things and lie to all of us constantly.

It is now clear that she tried to poison all the ladies’ and the public’s minds against Kathy and me and got them to feel sorry for her. I really feel that I Melissa tried to help Teresa cause problems for me. I knew She was having causing problems with me and the other ladies, and I jumped in and tried to help make things worse. I She also tried to make all the problems between her for me and her my brother go away.

We made a promise to move forward, and that’s exactly what I did. You will soon see that wasn’t the case for Teresa Melissa.

The next two episodes are really telling and you will understand why we are all at the place we are today.

First, I find it hard to believe that Teresa Melissa knows I didn’t just so happened to go to a random hair salon to get her my hair and makeup done before going to the Posche Fashion Show. Second, she knows Bravo setup the salon with has a creepy PR manager that greets them to greet us and hands out champagne to their “housewife customers” and just so happened because he to worked as a manager at a gentleman’s club. And So now the creepy PR manger was told by Bravo decides to tell Teresa me I Melissa used to dance for him. For a second she I actually looks was confused, I think she forgot which face she was going to use, then in typical Teresa ah ha fashion she remembered and went with it. Watching the episode at this point I’m now chuckling furious that Melissa still blames me for the setup. Are they serious? This is the worst acting I have ever seen. They know I can’t act.

I was feeling really genuine about my relationship with Teresa Melissa, and I never in a million years thought I was going to get ambushed the way I did. I was completely taken off guard.

I remember when Teresa I got offered the show. I told her to go for it. I said take the opportunity. Melissa If I had been was extremely jealous I wouldn’t have told her to go for it. I thought knew this would help make her feel like she I always”wins” — and I knew that Melissa would be angry since she thinks she should be the only one in the spotlight. Now that she’s on the show, I thought hoped she would feel more secure now and stop coming at me so we could just be a family. I was so wrong about that. It just got worse. Whatever little “need to be the best” bug that was inside of her was biting her harder. It started to become out of control.

Do I still think Teresa Melissa really believes I set her up setup me up? Yes. No.

Then Kim D comes to the reunion and admits I didn’t know what the setup was — and that I only knew, like everyone else, that Melissa was going to be the target. Teresa knew it was a set up for me.

‘Real Housewives of NJ’s’ Melissa Gorga addresses sister-in-law Teresa’s statements

By Jethro Nededog
May 16, 2011

Ever since the moment now ex-housewife Danielle Staub referred to Teresa Giudice’s sister-in-law on the Season 2 reunion of “The Real Housewives of New Jersey” [which premiered on August 30, 2010—Joe and Melissa Gorga signed contracts for season 3 the following week], the fans and the media have been interested in who this woman is.

“I remember that summer weekend was really crazy,” Melissa Gorga tells Zap2it. “I was in all the magazines for this and that and I was sitting out by my pool reading all about myself and I couldn’t figure out how this all happened. It was a little surreal.”

Teresa Giudice Listed on IMDb as One of Many Cameos in Feature Documentary ‘Skum Rocks!’

Skum Rocks! is a rock-n-roll film that will have you fully entertained giving you a full account of the true story of the amazing band from the 80’s that never reached it full potential. The film will give you the nitty-gritty, behind the scenes look at the Miami Band Skum including their ups and downs and the freakish mystery. [Source]

According to Teresa Giudice’s IMDb page, she is one of many to have a cameo in the feature documentary “Skum Rocks!” to be released in 2013. If this is true, Melissa is going to blow a gasket!

Summary from Miami.com:

‘Play like the music doesn’t matter.’ The unbelievable true story of the band that gained massive east coast popularity in the late 1980s despite having a complete lack of musical talent and ambition. A powerful PR machine built their fame, and soon their primary objective was to invent new and creative ways to get kicked off stage without actually playing. Narrated by Alice Cooper, Skum Rocks!, is a genre-bending film described by some as a true-life ‘This is Spinal Tap’, and by others as an independent ‘Rock of Ages’. ‘Skum Rocks!’ chronicles the rise, fall, and return of this infamous band, giving new life to the tale of ‘The Emperor’s New Clothes’.

From Teresa’s IMDb Page:

Actress (2 titles):

2013 Skum Rocks! (post-production)

2009 Mercy (TV series)

Housewife #2
I’m Not That Kind of Girl (2009) … Housewife #2 (as Teresa Guidice)

IMDb full cast and crew here: Skum Rocks! (2013)

Movie Trailer (Video) and Description of “Skum Rocks!” from MySpace (August 11, 2009):

Skum Rocks! a full length fea­ture doc­u­men­tary about the rise and fall of one of the strangest acts in Rock His­to­ry.

The film be­gins with the band’s on­set in the mid 1980’s as an avant garde col­lege rock band, whose band mem­bers were mem­bers of the William & Mary var­si­ty soc­cer team. Hav­ing no mu­si­cal back­ground, the band wrote their own songs and quick­ly emerged as one of Vir­ginia’s largest col­lege draws.

By the late 1980’s, the band be­gan to gain crit­i­cal ac­claim as well as an ex­pand­ing fan base that al­lowed the band to be brazen with their fi­nan­cial and busi­ness de­ci­sions. They turned down sev­er­al record com­pa­nies ad­vances, and be­gan record­ing their own record la­bel ‘Refuse Records’ in what they be­lieved to be the next White Al­bum. Af­ter 3 years, and sev­er­al hun­dred’s of thou­sands of dol­lars lat­er, tre 905the band’s mas­ter tapes were stolen in a car jack­ing in Mi­a­mi. They band went bankrupt short­ly there­after.

The doc­u­men­tary fo­cus­es on the band’s mem­bers as well as the strange path they trav­eled. No one is left un­scathed in this bru­tal­ly hon­est, yet en­tire­ly en­ter­tain­ing look at the fail­ure of a great rock band. From the road crew they re­cruit­ed from a soup kitchen, to the gui­tarist who was ob­sessed with Traci Lords, to the vast ar­ray of drum­mers that no body seemed to re­mem­ber, to the orig­i­nal bass play­ers who nev­er learned notes, ‘Skum Rocks’ takes the rock doc­u­men­tary to a new lev­el. One in which an in depth look in­to how it all came crash­ing down in a burn­ing mess.

Jer­ry Mann, one of the band’s lead gui­tarists, died of di­a­bet­ic com­pli­ca­tions last Novem­ber when this pro­ject was just un­der­way. The film is be­ing ded­i­cat­ed to his mem­o­ry. Al­ice Coop­er will nar­rate.

Celebri­ty cameos in­clude Stephen Bauer, Jon Stew­art, Kevin Bacon, Julianne Hough, Matthew Broderick, Fran Drescher, Topher Grace, Brooke Shields, Traci Lords, Phil Don­ahue, Luther Camp­bell, Bruce Horns­by, Paul Rodgers, Vince Neil, Paul Stan­ley to name a few, make this film fun, fast paced and thor­ough­ly en­joy­able.

By the end, peo­ple will be pulling for them to get back to­geth­er and give it one more shot. And why not, they are fun like­able, and just make re­al­ly bad de­ci­sions, that led to their demise.

The band filmed a 3 song set at the Cameo The­atre on Mi­a­mi Beach last Novem­ber for the film, which was the first time the en­tire band had been to­geth­er since 1991.

Note: The original release date was scheduled for 2010 so, if IMDb’s cast list is accurate and Teresa is in the film, her cameo probably was filmed in 2009.

Joe Gorga Tweets Photo of a Male Friend in Hotel Room and Asks: “What Do You Think of My Boy’s Body?”

I wonder if Melissa and Joe want the tabloids to run with stories about them being bisexual … Melissa’s performances are often at LGBT bars/events, and maybe they think if they present themselves as bisexual, they can build a bigger fan base (and maintain favor with Bravo Andy). On WWHL in 2012, Andy Cohen asked Melissa and Joe if they ever had sexual relationships with the same sex — both said ‘No’.

One of the reasons Teresa does hate Missy now is because Missy & Joe have an “open” marriage, and Teresa thinks it’s disgusting. Missy leaves her kids with her 2 nannies all the time to go clubbing and hook up and Joe sleeps with everyone in a skirt. – Anonymous, E-mail to StoopidHousewives, May 11, 2011

Melissa Gorga’s Entire Family Hates Teresa Giudice

tre 688

A source, who wishes to remain anonymous, e-mailed the following to Fame-Whorgas:

“From a local Jersey girl, I appreciate what you are doing. I am actually from Toms River where Melissa is from and I’ve seen quite a few girls just like her, so I had her number from the beginning. I know about her being shipped off to Florida — and in Toms River, whenever anyone has to “move to Florida”, it usually has something to do with trying to live a sober life. I don’t know if that was the case with her, but I am sure someone out there knows.

“A friend of mine actually told me that Melissa has a cousin (her name is TreyC) who can actually sing, and she asked Melissa to film with her and Melissa declined. All about family right?

“Melissa’s entire family hates Teresa. I went to high school with her cousin Tara Marco and she is always posting negative things about Teresa. How could they ever sincerely make up when the people closest to Melissa are constantly bashing her?

“I hear things here and there, but since Melissa has been on the show, the Marcos has really gone out of their way to protect her and her secrets. Apparently, they really do believe she can sing and she is the pride and joy of the family, which I am sure has fed her narcissism.

“It’s also 100% true that Melissa stopped associating with all of her friends since she got on the show because she is afraid of what they know — we have a few mutual friends. My friend [name edited out] was close to Melissa, and she told me she has reached out to Melissa many times and to congratulate her on the show, but she ignores all of her old friends now.

“To my knowledge, Bravo has not contacted anyone that I know personally. If Bravo wants to find them, I don’t think it would be all that difficult. I would imagine that they must know!

“I have a feeling that more and more people will be coming forward, especially when season 5 airs!”
