Bobby Ciasulli has done an HOUR LONG, interview with some dude (mostly he is just talking) about how they all got to be on RHONJ. Mostly, Bobby admits he didn’t even KNOW Nicole before RHONJ. Bobby is talking out of his ass a little bit. None of the guys, have a contract with Bravo. The contracts are always with the women. I think he just does a confusing job of explaining contracts.
There is some interesting tea about the Fall Party at Amber’s where Bobby realized that Amber was up to no good about the Twins guests supposedly being surprising. He wants to clear up that he got Nicole more than just the wine bottle holder. They exchanged many gifts.
Bobby still claims that he has been friends with Jimmy for 12-14 years. Um, wasn’t Jim selling worthless drugs off label to cancer patients at that time? Allegedly.
He also talks about Jim going after the two Joes. He says that Amber and Jim hi fived each other after the filming ended because “Jim brought the noise.”
He talks about Jim Marchese carrying an AIR HORN to the reunion.
I’ve made it through to the end. Bobby says if he could push a button and make things all like they were before RHONJ he would. He also makes it seem that he doesn’t run his own Twitter. lol. Of course he does.

Just watch the video… I can’t make it the whole hour. Jim Marchese is a douchebag. We know this. I am so over talking about it. I get emails every day about Jim withhold pay from employees (allegedly)
I’m going to defer to Vicki Hyman of NJ.com Because I am not sure I will get through this whole hour…Here are some of her thoughts Click her name to see them all.
• Marchese accused Ciasulli, the son of New Jersey auto group magnate Robert Ciasulli, of trying to hide his silver spoon and joining the Colts Neck Volunteer Fire Department to portray himself as a likable, working class hero. But Ciasulli says his family was opposed to him joining the cast because of the potential for bad publicity, so he promised his father he would not bring up the family business. That’s why Ciasulli kept that part of his life quiet. He also says he joined the fire department because he was inspired by the work in the Hurricane Sandy aftermath, and that the Marcheses knew how hard he worked to get his certification. “It is hitting so below the belt to this day, the thought of it makes me sick.”
• Another mandate from Ciasulli’s father: “If you’re going to do this, do not put yourself in a situation that you’re going to be in the middle of some insane drama.” (Um, not being in the middle of some insane drama effectively means not being on “Real Housewives of New Jersey.”) While the Marcheses say that Ciasulli and Nicole Napolitano orchestrated the attack on Amber at Ciasulli’s house, Ciasulli claims he never would have done that out of respect to his family.
• The fight was somewhat precipitated by Marchese’s decision to bow out of a bowling night with the rest of the “Housewives” husbands. Contrary to Marchese’s claims that he was at first content to stay in the background, Ciasulli says that Marchese wasn’t content to merely say he wasn’t going; he tore into Joe Giudice on camera that night, and then crowed about it later to his wife. “I’m saying to myself, ‘Oh my God, he’s saying this on camera with me here. What am I going to do with this? I’m going to look like a liar.” Ciasulli did downplay Marchese’s reaction at the bowling alley, but of course, the drama got disseminated through other channels. Because this is a reality show.
• Marchese has also claims that Ciasulli slept his way through a series of women who were being considered as new castmates to hedge his bets, and only dates Nicole to stay on the show. Both men do not deny that they pitched themselves and their friends en masse to “Real Housewives” producers, but Ciasulli says he used the casting as an icebreaker with Nicole, who he had seen around town (yes, at the Dunkin’ Donuts) and on whom he had been nursing a crush. “If this show never happens, great,” he says he thought at the time. “At least this came out of it.” He says they are still together.
Bobby gives some production insight which pretty much assures he won’t be back. That said, he is not under contract. Let me know how far you make it into the video..
To think the networks are covering the events in Ferguson when a story like this is being ignored.
I’m always here for you Stephen. Never stray.

Haaahaa I know it’s like where are their priorities ?!
Good one Stephen☺ Guess Bobby had to wait until his longtime friend could get this edited & out the door (so the whole world could hear “his truth”). He’s probably saying “damn Ferguson”!
I go by body language. I could see where he may have blurred the lines of truth as he spoke (nervousness, etc.), but all-in-all, he definitely spoke with sincerity. I find more integrity in his video than Jim has or will ever possess.
OMG !!! I watched about 20 minutes and wanted to kill myself. Can’t this guy tell his little stories without so many details. I wanted to watch the interview but I can’t do it. I just can’t. However I would like to hear what Jimmy Boy has to say about it. Hopefully he is ready to sue and has a stroke over it all. Jim is by far the most unlikeable husband of them all, He and Phaedra should be a team. Mr. and Mrs. Holier than thou.
TT – only made it through 15-20 minutes. Seriously this guy is just looking for his 15minutes….and they are up! Lol
The thirst is real. Unfortunately, I was only able to watch 10 minutes.
I made it 5 minutes. I’m disappointed in myself.
I love how his Instagram and Twitter handles appear on the screen. An hour-long infomercial for our dear Bobby. I wonder how much he paid for the “interview”.
I watched the entire video. Granted, in the day of 140 characters or less, our attention span isn’t long enough for one full hour of anyone talking about anything. BUT, having said all of that, I stuck it out, saw his painstaking efforts to be factual, which isn’t always a 30 second soundbite or an accomplishment able to be met by a 140 character tweet. I found myself appreciating the lengthiness and carefulness with which he tackled each point because I saw that he truly wanted to explain it to even the dimmest of bulbs and the scrutiny of the franchise-long, critical viewers. He needed to clear his name for his family’s sake, namely his father whom he clearly adores and respects.
Above all, he did NOT seize on an opportunity to trash anyone. His intention was simply to clear up rumors, to right wrongs, to give the fans the truth. I felt that he did that. And the fact that he didn’t make threats like Jim, to “gut you (a twitter commenter) and bath [sic] in your blood” or wish cancer upon a fan of the show, as did Jim, gave Bobby credibility beyond any RH of anywhere show that I’ve ever seen, past or present, actual housewife or supporting cast.
*Note: I’m not a hater. I don’t look for reasons to hate on anyone in the Bravo “Hunger Games”. I block all show participants unless I find redeeming character that is worthy of listening to what they have to say. Bobby did this to 1) clear his good name and his family’s (father’s generational & respected business) and 2) to help fans of the show to understand the difference between rumors, the spin by Bravo production & editing, and the truth… and for that, I am grateful and impressed.
I bet every reality show “celebrity” wishes they had done what he did. He set a precedent that is what fans need. If things are scripted, like an old fashioned soap, THAT we can process! But if it’s portrayed as “reality”, we need deeper truths, background, and participants who will tell it like it is, which Bobby did.
Thank you Bobby.
Really (@Jarlath) . I watched the whole thing and found Bobby to be full of shit. I would cite all the instances, but I truly am getting the aura you get before a migraine hits you like a ton of bricks. I knew I shouldn’t have watched the whole interview!
I should confess, when I say I WATCHED the whole thing, I was only listening while doing the post and some work on the website…

Give it up, Friend–Bobby. Nobody gives a shit about you. The show is over. Go back to screwing golddiggers.
Thank you, Bobby. I am “grateful and impressed”. But why did you even want to risk your family’s “generational and respected” car dealership???
I made it through the whole thing, how I don’t know! But like TT, I was watching a TV show and checking email while listening to ‘Bawby’ explain his way out of the bullshit river. Wherever Bravo finds these people I will never know. I want those 57 minutes of my life back!
I… didn’t even get through the post about the video about Bobby.
LOL And for that bit of realness you get five Tamara Tattles Tokens.

I had some ironing to do so I thought I could just listen to the video, but 16 minutes in I felt a near death experience coming on so I had to stop.
I’m so sorry. This was all way to much to ask. Please accept five Tamara Tattles Tokens and my regrets. xoxo

I listened to the whole thing. I have forgotten the particular scene he referenced, the whole tape was longer than my memory, but he told why he reacted as he did to a scene he was not a part of the previous week. He would only have known what happened in that scene by watching the show. I do think he was telling a lot of the truth. He sure sees his friends Jim and Amber differently, their attacks on him were not something agreed to for drama. Interesting that this show was his way to get to play Nicole’s boyfriend, but now it is a real relationship, according to him.
The Marchese’s both seem willing to go to any low for screen time. I cannot help but question what Bobby had in a tight friendship with them before. Some people do really change for fame. This couple is worse than Nene, and that is really bad.
He’s still with Nicole because there has yet to be a final decision made about RHofNJ. In my opinion. TT said that usually contracts go out after the reunion for those who brought it. However, with Tre going away everyone seems unsure if the show is dead, on hiatus, or will continue with a revamped cast. As the men never get cast or contracts like the ladies I’m sure that he is hanging onto Nicole just in case Bravo send Nicole out a contract. Jmo. He is a fame whore. Just not as despicable as Jim.
Do I have to watch it? I feel like the recap is enough. Yes, I’m sure the recap is enough.
Started daydreaming at the 10 minute mark because, don’t care.
Yeah, I don’t know about NJ, but where I live, you don’t just go out and become a fireman just for a reality tv show. It’s a lot of hard work. I can’t really see someone actually going to such an extreme.
I am kind of hoping they bring the twins back-if nothing else for Rino and his restaurants. I kind of liked TeResa’s frankness at the Reunion. So if Bobby is part of the package it would not bother me. I totally understood why he stepped away from the conflict in Florida.
You all are courageous and full of perseverance. I read TT’s words and ignored all those italics, and will say that I looked at the image of the youtube video. Y’all are made of strong stuff for clicking and watching.
TT ….is it true that RHONJ/Bravo is delaying filming because of Theresa going to jail ? Seriously ? And what about the talks of her own cooking show when she’s released ?
sigh.
