Teresa and Nicole Responds to Victoria Gotti’s Comments

August 25, 2014 by tamaratattles 106 Comments

NIcole Just Tweeted She and Bobby are headed to Vegas!
NIcole Just Tweeted She and Bobby are headed to Vegas!

So, some mafia princess goes on national TV and says your husband once slept with your mother. How do you respond?  Would your response be louder if it were true or if it was not?  This week, Nicole and Teresa got their blogs up early. Both were a single page, way less than they usually are. There was no gratitude or shout outs to twitter friends. It was, pretty much the least they could do and still blog. Here is what they had to say. What they DIDN’T say may be more important.

From Nicole’s Blog:

When it comes to that hideous conversation that took place with Teresa Giudice, Amber, and that blonde (who really must cut those hair extensions, because she looks like Grandma Strega from a bad porn movie)… In Italian households you can talk about many people and things, but a mother? That’s one thing that’s off limits. All I have to say is Karma’s a bitch!

From TeRESSA’s Blog:

As far as the coffee klatch conversation, it’s so sad how other people need to build themselves up by attempting to take other people down. One thing which everyone should know about me by now, and will learn if they don’t know already, nobody is more real than I am. I don’t sugar coat anything. I say what I mean, and I mean what I say. To know me is to love me, to cross me is the worst thing you can do when it comes to the people I love. We all know what we signed up for with #RHONJ and being a Housewife…it’s not The Brady Bunch. Although for me, there is a line of respect I draw when it comes to parents and children. This scene was nothing but a total lack of respect — filth and lies. Shame, shame, shame on anyone involved. My family, my blood, my mother, my father, my sister, my nephews Anthony and Joey, my husband Rino, and my son Giovanni are my world, my loves, and my life. And so help me God, anyone that tries to hurt or destroy any one of them… All I will say is there is God, and karma is a bitch. So beware, because everyone will get served exactly what they deserve, while I sit back peacefully.

Neither twin tweeted any real comments during the show last night. They retweeted lost of supportive tweets that was it.

Victoria Gotti tweeted a picture of John Gotti that read, “I never lie because I’m not afraid of anyone. You only lie when you’re afraid.”

It’s interesting to me that there is no denial. Teressa says the scene was “filth and lies” in a general sense.

Thoughts?

    Tamara, do you know of anything in a Housewife contract that would stop them from filing a slander lawsuit? This is such an explosive and hurtful bit of gossip. It’s nothing like typical Housewives drama. Bravo shouldn’t have aired it. Still, I have a hard time believing Victoria Gotti would say something she couldn’t back up.

      The housewives contract literally says they can defame, slander, mock, etc the housewives to no end. I am not sure if Santa is under a similarly worded contract but she probably is as well. There are things in the contract to strongly dissuade them from doing so anyway.

      They signed a contract giving away all of their privacy, medical, psychological, records. EVERYTHING. Nothing is off limits legally.

      It seems Bravo has no moral boundaries to concern themselves with.

          ​They can’t sue Bravo or other people on the show for defamation. They waive all sorts of rights when signing the contract.

          The validity of the detail in the Bravo clauses has to my knowledge never been tested.

        Didn’t NeNe and Phaedra pull some “Cease and Desist” things on each other(and other castmates)? This would have been last Season. For some reason I thought they made some odd comments at the RHOA Reunion about it. I have a crappy memory though also. A C & wouldn’t fall under suing, would it? It’s away to get another cast member(s) to shut up? Just wondering TT

          The only thing that has ever come close is Adrienne Maloof. Her lawyers sent Brandi threatening letters. They threatened legal action they tried going after Bravo and Adrienne quit the show. But no actual suit was ever brought. And Adrienne pissed off Bravo.

      I don’t know how much I believe this. And on the note of Victoria Gotti being honest- that’s the biggest crock of sh*t I’ve ever heard! She comes from a family of murders, clearly shows no remorse for it- OH, and there WAS that stint when she tried having her OWN reality show, and tried to get ratings by saying she was diagnosed with breast cancer. Only later did she finally admit they found some precancerous cells, she was NEVER actually diagnosed, and later the doctor said it was nothing. Wonder if Amber knows about that? I don’t know if it’s true or not, but I would never go on the basis of Victoria Gotti having an honest bone in her body.

    What’s in it for Victoria Gotti to come out with that allegation? It’s clear that whole situation with Amber coming to the event was set up to set up that scene. Is Tre mentoring Amber in how to be devious? Where’s Kim D?

    If the allegation is true then I am baffled as to the current state of the twins’ family. Is their no limit to their capacity to forgive adultery and betrayal? Why didn’t their dad kick their mother out on the street?

    I agree, what was not said came through loud and clear. Teressa wrote her blog in a tone that sounded to me like I think a John Gotti type hoodlum would. We know who Victoria is, of course, I doubt she went on RHONJ just to spread nonsense. This gave new meaning to Rino’s compliment to all the women at the Valentine’s dinner, the first one being to the mother and her deserving the credit for the daughters. How did Teressa ever resolve that with her mother, is what I want to know. Family is NOT everything always.

I believe her 100% Why would she publicly disparage someone’s mom for no reason? He absolutely comes across as someone who would do that. His own wife said, on the same episode, that he slept w/ ‘every stripper imaginable’.

      Rino said that it was a salacious story. True. His family is his life. That may very well be. what he didn’t say is, “I can’t imagine how someone that I once considered a friend would say something so heinous about me. Maybe i was making a bad joke one night, and she thought I said something like that. It goes without saying that I would never, ever, EVER do something like that and I am sorry that my mother-in-law’s name was mentioned in a less than positive light. Anybody that believes this story is a fool.

      Nope, he sure didn’t say anything like that.

    I believe what Victoria said was true (at least to her knowledge). If so, I really respect that neither twin lied and said it didn’t happen. All these housewives seem to lie about stupid stuff, so for them to not want to go there just as a gut reaction to protect themselves actually says a lot.

        The drama didn’t just fall in the bravo gravy bowl….Victoria spoon fed it to them. The fact that they decided to air it is disgusting. The fact that neither one of the twins led their blogs with “this never happened, our mom is an amazing person and is truly hurt by these lies” is a bit of a tell.

    In the RHONYC Reunion, there was a part where Ramona was complaining about them talking about Mario cheating – and she was wanting to move on and not discuss it.

    Ramona looked at Andy and said something like, “Andy who will you be sleeping with tonight?”

    To which Andy said, “I’ll answer when I’m on a reality show with him.”

    So I guess he was saying anyone who comes on the show is giving up any confidentiality – all discovered skeletons will be revealed?

    Just sayin’. Look what has happened to Teresa and Joe. Melissa’s beaver house plus failed singing career and proven liar many times over. Then there’s Amber getting called on the carpet for talking too much about herself having cancer and sharing gossip about Nicole cheating. Nicole’s been outed as having a fake relationship with Bobby. Now it’s TeRESSA’s turn, her husband and mother.

    As the world turns.

      I know it sounds as if I am sticking up for Bravo…ugh…but when Taylor’s husband committed suicide, she was consulted. They did edit him out as much as possible. I do remember seeing him in one scene and it was a little much for me. However I remember it being her choice to have any of it included. Taylor chose to go ahead and include that part. I can’t imagine making that type of decision during a time like that.
      I don’t want to argue about Bravo…but everyone on these shows…make that choice to sign away it all. I didn’t realize all they signed away until TT’s above comment!

      I agree with you, @marywanna, and beyond that, it was way low of VG to drop it in Theresa and ‘Ambah’s’ laps. If VG felt it was so important to be known, she should have bladder OFF SCREEN.

      VG obviously is desperate for some screen time. That aside, Amber’s reaction, her facial expressions, to VG’s claim, were comic gold, from the moment that VG began setting up her claim and through and after the time it took VG to drop it in Theresa and Amber’s laps.

    I agree that what the twins didn’t say actually says it all. If untrue, I wouldn’t talk about “karma.” I would say you have lied and defamed my mother. I would also have Rino & my mother come out and deny it. It’s such an inflammatory thing to say that I can’t imagine you’d say it unless you had something to back it up. Plus, I doubt Gotti would go after the mother (someone she doesn’t even know) unless Rino told her he had slept with her. I feel sorry for the twins’ father. How humiliating. If I were TerEssa or Nicole, I don’t think I’d be breaking bread with my mother on Valentine’s day with Rino telling her how beautiful she is. A huge– GROSS! Boundaries people, boundaries.

    If Vic was making it up why not just say he slept with the other twin? A whole lot more believable and realistic. The story she told is so crazy maybe it is true. Neither twin refuted the story or used the ‘he was drunk and joking card’. Then again since Bravo heavily edits the housewives’ blogs maybe they just removed their stronger denials to try and inflate ratings.

      Rino denied it on twitter last night sort of. His denial was a picture of a text or something that said she was lying. I forget the wording I found it odd he didn’t just type the words. ​

        Yeah. Maybe they recieved a production phone call telling them to skirt an actual denial for a bump in ratings. Doubt it will work.

        It seemed like a pretty weak denial from Rino. Even if he did it stronger, I’d say he protests too much. I just have a feeling Victoria told the truth. Supposedly the father of the twins was in jail at the time. That part may not be true. The girls talking about karma is just no defense b s. I think Victoria may like to be on TV, but why would she make an appearance just to initiate false gossip. I doubt she is that desperate. It appears Nicole’s 14 year old son was making a fool of himself along with Jim Marchese on Twitter. The kid seems to be blaming Amber in the parts not deleted. Is he afraid to blame a Gotti, or did he? Jim says he got the twins and their men on the show. This sounds real, Amber was desperate to be on RHONJ, Jim is Bobby’s buddy. They probably put them on as a package. They all never suspect every damaging thing from their past to come out because they are stupid. Don’t trust Bravo to jave your back and those contracts with anything goes in them are real.

    How utterly strange, if it’s true, although for some reason I don’t believe it. Italians can overlook their men screwing their goomadas and strippers but banging someone’s mother isn’t necessarily a forgivable action. In any case, I don’t buy it.

    Even if it is true, there as some things you just do not bring up. What is her motive other than Bravo giggled and clapped there hands like the shit stirrers that they are to get her to do. She probably called them and told them she had something juicy that they could use on the show. I can see karma coming back to bite her in the ass. What is past is past and people have things they move on from in their lives and it was just dirty what she did. I don’t even like the twins, but they deserve their privacy in a private family matter. But when you come on a show like this, ALL your dirty laundry is fair game. Victoria and Bravo are cut from the same cloth. And she has the nerve to quote her father like he was Kahlil Gibran instead of the sadistic killer and low life criminal that he was to justify it. She thinks by telling someone’s secrets she’s not afraid to the tell the truth. I guess not cause some thug gangster post mafia era moron will most likely try to intimidate them. Loser.

      This reminds me of Tre at the beauty salon when the guy came in and told her about Melissa working for him on the pole. Seems like the same kind of set-up to me. I’m wondering if Victoria and/or Tre went to Bravo with the information and then it was scripted for the show. Just a thought..

        I agree Cat. It has to be for ratings which equals money for Bravo. The only other possibility that I can come up with would be to take some of the negative attention off of Tre. I highly doubt that though. Bravo has no heart. It’s a business so it’s about the bottom line.

    In the first two seasons of RHONJ there was so much speculation about the mob. The history of Tiny Manzo found stuffed in the trunk of his Caddy, Danielle’s enforcers, etc. gave the show the air of proximity to organized crime, but it quickly veered away from that and towards simple fambily squabbling.

    This episode was interesting. It brought all of that back but instead of the ladies denying the implication of the mob, now they are celebrating it and making it a story line. Teresa G now claims The Godfather is her favorite and has much to teach? She is buddies with the most infamous mob princess? Really?

    I think the lack of a strong denial says it all when it comes to Rino and the twins. That was quite the WTF moment.

      Surely the company the Guidices keep offers an explanation into their criminal acts– stemming from a sense of self-importance that these arrogant mobster types have entrenched into their mentality. That’s why Teresa just can’t understand why this is happening to them. Getting caught was not supposed to happen in the fantasy world they live in.
      Victoria must have some “protection” to have the balls to dish that shit. She’s a loser. No consequences for the most atrocious of accusations. She can’t help it, she got it honest.

        Sure they are, but really it’s the mystique of the legacy that Gotti left behind rather that they’re scared of rather than any real harm coming to them IMO. There’s no fear greater than that in your own mind. Imagine being able to scare people because who your father was. The mafia is no more. What’s left is people like Victoria trying to trade on it’s prior power to instill fear in people. Gotti scared a lot of people because his henchman killed rivals or people who just offended him, routinely. Shame on Victoria for using such a sickening tactic to get away with something as low as what she did. She might think she is a some kind of princess but she ain’t nobody’s princess. Princess of a landfill maybe, for obvious reasons.

    I wonder why Amber was really brought in as the “Friend” for this bit? Never mind…As I was going to type “wonder why not Melissa?” I bet Gotti most likely doesn’t appreciate Ms . Melissa much? Damn tho! To just run off at the mouth like that with a for real stranger sitting there?

    The women in those “mob” or “wannabe mob” families were no shrinking violets. Some of them were violent and dangerous. Victoria’s own story, even when taken with a grain of salt, is pretty shocking, and I certainly would be askeered of her (and her mother). As for Rino, he comes across (to me) as an obnoxious horndog who is capable of anything. These people seem to be enamored of the mob, crazy as that is. Clueless and incredible. Like they’re in another world. Bravo has discovered this weird little area of the world no one thought existed anymore.

    Maybe there was something in the past for which Victoria is getting even? Maybe someone in the twins’ family crossed John Gotti in some way and this is her payback?
    But I believed her that Rino said it, whether it is true or not that he slept wiith his mother in law. Rino craves attention. That’s something that has not been considered-that Rino said it but was lying.

    Hmmm…..this story is reprehensible and has taken Bravo to the lowest of lows. It never should have aired-no exceptions. This is only speculation on my part, but Victoria may have been motivated to tell this story because there may have been rumors in the distant past that romantically linked her father, John Gotti, to Santa. So, if John Gotti was interested in Santa, it is highly unlikely that Santa’s husband would do anything about her alleged involvement with some other man (even Rino) because of the possible retaliation from the Teflon Don. The table discussion may have been Victoria’s way of settling an old score with Santa. Victoria loves the spotlight, and is viewed as a pariah by most of the other women connected to the mob. She knows it is completely wrong to gossip about someone’s mother in a public matter. She should watch her step because there are many people in “the life” who do not fear her and have no respect for her father’s reputation. The twin’s father is the biggest victim in this calamity.

    What could possibly be gained by Victoria Gotti going on national tv and spreading such a disgusting rumor? She got her 30 seconds of fame. She’s a washed up hack and she’s as phony as her stringy hairpieces. Get a life Victoria, no one believes you and not only did you make an ass out of yourself, you’ve given new meaning to the word pathetic. I hope you read this…don’t have an ounce of respect for you.

    Listen, I don’t have a beef with you. People who are jealous, envious, troubled or bored spread vicious, disgusting rumors about other people who are happily living their lives and minding their own business. Or, they take someone’s “skeletons” and make them public knowledge for no good reason other than to stir the pot, cause trouble or defame someone. Normally, people understand and recognize that. That’s it. Period. That’s my take. I’m speaking for myself.

    I agree with you, @marywanna, and beyond that, it was way low of VG to drop it in Theresa and ‘Ambah’s’ laps. If VG felt it was so important to be known, she should have bladder OFF SCREEN.

    VG obviously is desperate for some screen time. That aside, Amber’s reaction, her facial expressions, to VG’s claim, were comic gold, from the moment that VG began setting up her claim and through and after the time it took VG to drop it in Theresa and Amber’s laps.
