Teresa Giudice Has a New Blog Up

September 30, 2013 by tamaratattles 53 Comments

rhonjtreputfirst

I was wondering if Teresa would blog at all after the finale. You would think her lawyers would be trying to keep a lid on her for the next few months. But she does have a few things to say this week.  She still wants to blame Penny and John for the rumors about Melissa and sort of backpedals again from her “apology.”  And she reacts to Andy’s interview with Juicy and her about the upcoming court case.

About Penny and John:

I’m not going to talk too much about Penny and Johnny because I don’t have anything much to say about them. I’ve met them a few times, I knew she wanted to be on the show, and I stayed as far away as I could from whatever rumors she had or didn’t have on Melissa. It’s a small town though, I guess I didn’t stay far enough away! How did she have my phone number? I have no idea, but most people around her do have it. It’s easy to get. I’m not a super secretive person. I give it out to everyone. To me, that’s no big deal. If we were really working together, she would have texts from me and photos of hanging out at my house with me and my kids — like all my other friends do. I’m not buying that she deletes all her texts but saves all her Twitters, but whatever. It is what it is. I can’t do anything to stop strangers from coming after me and my family. The only thing I can do is protect my family the best I can. And if that means getting up and walking away, taking the blame, or apologizing, then I’ll do it.

I’m not a texter, but is it really normal for people to keep all their texts on their phone?  And um, Teresa, Tweets stay forever unless you delete them for some reason.  I don’t think Penny ever said she hung out with you at your house, but all of y’all have been around Penny and John many times in the past few years.  Getting up and walking away, taking the blame and apologizing are all good options for you.  You should start doing all of those things like you seriously mean it.

About the Andy Interview:

The Watch What Happens Live interview with Andy was intense. I think he was very respectful and did a great job. Hopefully we answered enough questions, but it is aggravating to not be able to speak freely about everything. When this is all over, we will! As Joe said, we pleaded not guilty for a reason. Thank you all so much for your support and for withholding judgment until the trial is over.

Pled. You pled not guilty. I suppose Andy was respectful, for Andy. But the shade was there.

I’m not in denial about it, I know it’s serious and terrible, and I wouldn’t wish this situation on anyone. If you’ve ever been in any kind of legal situation, even a divorce, you know it can suck your soul dry faster than almost anything else. It’s not a pretty process. But I choose to stay positive. I really believe that being positive and being happy is a choice. It would be easy to stay in bed and cry all day. It’s hard to keep moving forward, keep working, and keep your head up, but that’s what strong women do. Especially being a mom, I can’t fall apart. I have four little girls looking at me to see how to handle bad times. I want to set a good example for them because life involves bad times. You have to know how to cope and not to crumble. And I trust in God. I trust that no matter what, we’ll be OK. Worrying isn’t going to do one thing to help us.

You are in denial. As a mother, you should be thinking about the possibility that both of your children’s parents may be looking at serious time in the penitentiary.  You need to have a plan for every possible circumstance.  That is what strong women do. They face reality and make the best of the situation for their family.  God has nothing to do with this. This situation is occurring because of Greed, not God.  How important is it to have a closet full of handbags and purses you can’t afford now?  More important than you kids having parents?  Harsh, but something you really need to come to terms with.

      No he does NOT have a valid license. It was suspended and his driving is one reason he still has to go to court (not including the fed charges).

          In Georgia, (I dunno about NJ) if you lose your license due to a DUI you can still drive to and from work, and to your doctor’s office on your revoked (actually limited would be a better term) license. I am assuming that Juicy drives on camera “for work.”

        in most states that’s true, but you first have to request it and the judge still has to okay it. we don’t know whether he got that permission but you’d guess by now some jersey DMV person has seen it and checked it out or someone has reported it. in cali we can report someone to the dmv for a motor vehicle violation so i’m guessing someone in jersey can do the same thing if they want to get him in trouble. guessing that would be part of his current case re the license violations if true.

        Joe’s driver’s license was suspended for 12 months in 2010 for the DUI. It was reinstated in 2011. He has not been found guilty yet for the license fraud and has a valid license at this time.

    My question was that neither knew what wire transfers were along w/ 38 other charges? How could Theresa sign a phony W2 form w/o asking Joe what it was?? I never sign anything my own hubby gives me w/o reading it. Making/signing phony loan apps? She didn’t know that? Throughout the interview last night, it was funny watching Joe answer when she was about to say something else or vice versa. In the end, I feel so sorry for the kids who can’t help what their parents do.

    As far as Penny, I don’t buy T’s explanation how Penny got her number. In another episode earlier in season she said how she liked hanging out with her best friends, including Penny.

      You’re wrong in regards to Penny. The confessional you mentioned where Teresa says she loves hanging with her best friends was NOT in regards to that dinner. She isn’t friends with Penny/Jan. She’s not even “best” friends with Jennifer Dalton. They were there on business trying to get Milania Hair Care into their (Penny/Jan) salons.

        I do keep all of my texts, and most people I know do too, but I also know a few people who don’t. I just think that someone like penny would at least keep the texts between her and Teresa if any of those texts included Teresa plotting to take down Melissa. Penny is smart enough to keep some proof in her back pocket. And besides, if tre had sent her texts with incriminating info, I don’t she would have said “show me the texas”. She wouldn’t know that penny supposedly deletes all of her texts.

      Yeah, it’s VERY normal to keep all of your texts. Why would you delete them in the first place? It’s your phone. Like someone said, unless you have something to hide from other people who might see your phone i.e. a girlfriend or maybe a cast mate who is going to call you out on your lies, then yeah, you’d keep em all.

      Hell no, I never keep texts (Texas, if your Teresa)!!! I delete ALL of them!!! With the line of work I am in supervisors suggest immediate deletion. They may contain confidential information if released may cost me my job. My boyfriend does not check it. He has no cause. Just as I do not request to see his. I find it very disrespectful to ask anyone to “show me” a text to prove an issue. Of course, I do not have a train wreck of a life to involve the shenanigans these women do. Texts should only be viewed by the receiver, unless court mandated. In such case, a subpoena is issued and the entire conversation may be viewed for legal purposes only!

      She presented a falsified W2 for a job she did not have, stating she a high level steady income, when in fact she was unemployed, and then SIGNED A BANK LOAN APPLICATION stating that she stated her true and correct personal income in the application. That ONE act has a 30 year max and a million dollar maximum fine.

      It was not an accident. She is an adult engaging in a business transaction while knowingly and deliberately falsifying information.

        i could see signing something without reading, if you trust the person handing it to you, but i’ve never done it–i read all the fine print. i certainly can’t believe someone doing that every time. executives i’ve worked for have done it but i can’t imagine they’d do it to loan papers or anything stating that a lie constitutes perjury and will be punishable by law. their liability is too great. the people insisting she is innocent when lots of paper exists to show their fraud boggle the mind.

        Absolutely. There is no way she didn’t know what was going on. The charges that Tamara has laid out in detail prove it. Her act will crumble very soon. Sometimes you have to just own what you have done in life. The dumb act won’t work in this case. It’s too serious.

    I believe Teresa. I don’t think she’s in denial. I think she is choosing to remain upbeat no matter how much trouble she is in. She’s not stupid. She knows she’s in big trouble. Wringing your hands about it all day does no one any good so why do it? She is working, she is meeting with lawyers, and she is making court appearances-all things I would hope she would be doing in her situation. If she wants to keep a smile on her face while she does it, I can’t see how that isn’t admirable.

    I know that is the minority opinion here, but c’est la vie..it’s mine so I figured I’d just out myself now before the Giudice trial starts cuz I HOPE you are going to cover the trial as much as you can for us dear TT!

    What I take away from their interview is that Teresa is going to say she didn’t sign anything or know about it, because Joe took care of finances. And Joe was setting up his defense of the accountants handle everything. So he just signed her name and did everything his accountants told him. Not that these are valid legal defenses. To the contrary, they will fail but it probably won’t stop those two from trying it. And as far as Teresa’s ability to lie–she’s good at it, it’s second nature to her. She caught on quick to the game of marketing and making herself a “brand” from which she makes money regurgitating the talking points that her PR team prepped her to say at all appearances. She can’t play ditzy airhead on one hand and smart, savvy business woman on the other.

      I’m pretty sure Joe can’t do the time for charges that she alone is charged with, which were quite a few if I remember correctly (falsifying documents submitting false W2s, etc). Personally, I think she deserves to do some time. This has been going on for a long time and wasn’t a one time “whoops!” kind of thing. It went on for several years.

      Even if she did “just go along with whatever he said” she still has to face the punishment. She did the crime and now must pay. Just going along with something because someone said to is something a 5 year old does, not a 30-40 something woman.

    Seems to me she should stop TALKING altogether period. That would include blogs,tweets,texts, everything! If she is going to be the “strong woman” example for her daughters, then she should just shut up and start paying close attention (if she can) to whats getting ready to happen to her and prepare her girls. Stay off of the damn tv. The more she talks (in circles) the stupider she sounds, and I don’t really believe she’s that stupid but maybe not the brightest in decision making. Above all she needs to stop with the God stuff, Neither one of them were thinking about God when they decided to do what they did for as long as they did it.

        It was interesting to not that the Giudices were one of the first people in their shore neighborhood to get their house rebuilt making it even better than it was before. Joe got that done while Teresa was buying Versace dishes for Nene Leakes.

        The spending has not slowed down at all.

        It was interesting to me that BRAVO chose to film at the newly renovated shore house even though it was not complete. (Iyanla voice. It’s not COMPLETE!) It’s like they were showing the spending on purpose…. but they would not do that…..would they?

    The only part I find sad is that there are children involved. But, its a lesson they should learn. Stop being greedy, stop living outside of your means, and don’t steal and commit forgery to get the approval of people that don’t like you anyway.

    Two points, it is obvious her lack of vocabulary has someone blogging her elementary style use of words (more money spent). And another ST~eff~U. You are only digging your whole(s) deeper! I won’t even touch her purely cash spending (*ALERT* Department of Revenue) and expensive lifestyle (*AGAIN ALERT* Department of Revenue). I cannot imagine her Fab-u-fucking-lini, book deals, etc are funding what she is spending. Leave it to a criminal to be so narcissistic. Laying low does not mean you have to disappear all together. A mere watching your public appearances is enough. Strong appearance for your children is one thing. Flaunting yourself is another.
