It’s time for Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen’s second favorite felon and the sister in law who she secretly hates. And vice versa. If the drinking word is “evil” we are all in trouble. Teresa is back with a brand new black sequined jumpsuit. It amazes me that fresh out of prison she has a stylist who got her an orange jumpsuit (she too dumb to pick up on that) and now a black jumpsuit for the show. No word on what coat she wore but I’m sure it was one she’s never worn before. Crime pays SO WELL these days and if you have to do an eleven month stint in prison, just write a book and get into shape doing yoga and you will still have a huge Bravo check when you get out. Melissa is in a white jumpsuit or white shirt and pants.
Teresa and Melissa both did a photo spread for Paper Magazine. Le sigh.
Joe Giudice has written a song for Teresa in prison and wants John Legend to sing it to her. Teresa just met John Legend and his wife Chrissy Teagan at the 20th anniversary of Mohegan Sun, an event that was lousy with housewives. John Legend will be back on WWHL soon so Andy will probably have him do it. Barf.
Andy asks about this new found relationship between Tre and Danielle Staub. He asks who reached out to who. Teresa says that Andy started it when they filmed the reunion. Welp, there is the confirmation we needed to be positive that she is coming back. Teresa says that she texted her and they talked about yoga and Teresa decided to meet her for a class or two. Andy asks if they are friends now and she says it’s just like they picked right back up where they left off. Andy points out that the was there when they left off and it was one of the scariest days of his life. That was the reunion where Teresa shoved Andy into his seat. She says it’s more like they were when the show started. Melissa says she wasn’t surprised. She felt it coming.
Jac tweeted that one on one conversations are more effective and repeated they were too afraid to speak to her alone. They both said that it was the way she went about it ordering everyone around that they were not having. Jac was barking orders.
They play a sneak peek of the reunion where Teresa accuses Jac and Caroline of tipping off the Feds. When someone asks why Jac is always crying when something is going on with Tre’s family, Tre says, “Exactly, why is she always crying? Maybe she is guilty of something.”
A caller asks if they feel like Siggy should pick a side. Melissa keeps answering because Tre really is not good at this. She says they talked about it and thought that she should but it was Jac who brought her onto the show (In imaginary Bravoland) so she felt some sort of attachment to her. They both think that Siggy has now “seen the light.” Well of course, since it looks like Jac is probably done with the show.
Please let them play games. It takes forever to recap when there are two housewives on. And they are not saying anything worth my time.
No one is allowed to say Teresa went to prison. Melissa says that she and Kathy had parted ways before Teresa went to…to where she went. She says things just got weird and she doesn’t know what happened.
Teresa says she will not be making up with Caroline. Melissa says she has no problems with Caroline. They don’t speak a lot. She loves the Manzo family. She clearly can’t say too much because Teresa hates Caroline and keeps interrupting to say that Caroline only talked to Melissa when it was good for her. Shut the fuck up, Teresa. Caroline is a saint and you are a felon. You would be wise to keep her name out of your mouth.
Melissa tries to deny that she fired the kid that worked at Envy because of what Kim D. said. Melissa and Kim D. hate each other.
Thank GAWD for a game. Well fuck it’s the best part of the show. They have three drag queens doing Lip Sync for Your Wife. First up is Alyssa Edwards who lip syncs to Tardy for the Party and does a full death drop into a split which has Andy utterly gleeful. Shangela does Kenya’s Gone With The Wind Fabulous. Hell why has this song not been on Drag Race? It’s perfect! Holy CRAP! Shangela is even better than Alyssa. She has a double wig reveal from braids to Kenya hair and does a death drop that was PERFECTION! Tattiana is up to do Money Can’t By You Class. She was great but no death drop. Andy whispers to the girls in a huddle. Who do you think? First or second. And because they are idiots they went with the first one, Alyssa Edwards.
Tatianna answers a question about Phi Phi not showing up for the reunion of RuPaul’s Drag Race this season. Tatitanna was very gracious and said she just didn’t feel comfortable coming on because of her issues with production.
Kim D. tweeted in that she “has watched Teresa discard a number of people it was only a matter of time before I was no longer of use. Her relationship with Melissa is as authentic as Melissa owning Envy. B.S.” If we have to have another season, get this woman a contract. Melissa just says, “Oh yeah, Okay!” and makes a face.
There was no poll. Apparently, you can’t trust the polling system. It’s a rigged system.
Great recap
Just wanted to say that I adore that use of the word “lousy”. I rarely see/hear it used that way anymore.
“This whole town is lousy with B&B’s”
“Her house is just lousy with kitsch”
A Mohegan Sun event being “lousy with Housewives”? Perfection. LOL.
Aw man, I like John Legend!… well… used to like him at least…
I have no words for Teresa.
Not everybody you met is your friend ,,,John will never go that low by singing a song to tha crook or bring their “friends” ,,he is a good sport but he and his wife has class and decency
I think the real Teresa made an appearance on this show tonight.
What gets me is why people let Teresa get away with anything. She said she was going to give Jacqueline the kiss of death, right? Doesn’t that mean she’s gonna put a hit out on her? That’s fucking scary.
Does Andy love or hate Teresa? She’s obviously a cash cow but there’s not the overt fawning like with Bethany. Someone needs to teach her makeup artist about blending, her makeup looked like a clown. Loved the “lousy” comment as well, lol! Teresa did call Andy honey and that doesn’t bode well for how he treated her during the reunion.
Hahaha the jumpsuits. It’s too, too meta!
What I noticed was how Teresa was sitting and/or leaning in her chair. She couldn’t get far enough away from Melissa . No touching or high fives, no laughs together, she didn’t look at her unless she had too, I thought at one point her chair was going to fall over towards the wall. Did she agree with anything her “new best friend in the whole wide world” said?..lol #Hmmm…. I think over the course of the RHONJ break I am going to keep track (because why not) of how many tweets these 2 share about each other or Instagram pics there are of their wonderful family events they share together. Something tells me I won’t have very many to count..lol
I do think that Teresa and her new “look what they have in common..(criminal)” friend will be sharing activities. Danielle S. is thirsty & most likely will be back next season. They can sit together & discuss what it’s like to get arrested & other “Camp” stories. Melissa will make sure she is in that friendship for her much needed story-line, Jac. will still be cuckoo for cocoa pops or Ashlee will have locked her up somewhere so she can’t come back. Rosie & Kathy will still be outside of every event scratching at the window trying to get inside & Lawd knows who Andy will throw in next season. It has to be better then this season One would hope
Thx TT xo
It’s obvious that Teresa has only made up with Danielle because she’s hoping to have Bravo use her as a replacement for Jacqueline next season if she doesn’t come back. I wonder how long that whole scenario would last since we all know that it was Melissa who was feeding Danielle all the insider family scoop way back during the Teresa/Danielle feud even if Melissa denies it. It’s also pretty obvious why she says she was done with Kathy before Teresa went to prison. Everyone knows Melissa and Kathy came on the show as a team to try and take Teresa down a peg. Once Melissa saw that the writing was on the wall and fans weren’t interested enough in her to keep her on the show without Teresa she dumped Kathy just like she dumped Jacqueline this season to try and save her own job as long as she can. Let’s face it. She’s not interesting. Her singing career storyline was a bust. Her failed relationship advice book was a bust. Her boutique (that she doesn’t really own) is a bust. Her only option to remain revelant and stay on the show was to become Teresa’s new bestie and that required shunning Kathy and Jacqueline because they knew too much about her plotting and scheming against Teresa. The same thing will apply to Danielle is she comes back next year.
Word. As frustrating as it is, that a criminal essentially owns this franchise, she does. Melissa is very fame driven. She wanted to be more famous than Teresa, and it just is not going to happen. So she finally realized her best bet is to associate herself with Teresa. I say whatever. I hope it lasts, because it’s good for the kids, and the guidice children need as much support outside of their selfish criminal parents as possible.
Yeah, but how much contact do you really think the Guidice and Gorga kids have with each other when they aren’t filming? I’m going to say near to none.
The idea that Caroline and Jacq. told the feds about Teresa and Joe’s fraud is absolutely preposterous! How on earth would those two know about the phony documents?? There is no way Joe & Tre were saying “hey look at the scam were are pulling on the IRS.” Tre got caught because she and Joe were dumb enough to try and defraud the Federal government. On a Bankruptcy that large, they have special audits. With Tre being on the show, it was obvious she was not working a real estate agent or whatever else she doctored up as a job. No wonder they got caught. With respect to the comment above, I don’t think anyone was trying to “take Teresa down a peg” I think it was all about money. Having cameras follow you around for a few months for a few hundred thousand? I’d want a piece of that if I were them. The Danielle thing is odd, because they were not friends in the first few seasons, If I remember correctly Danielle was friends with Jacq. It will be interesting to see if they get another season, because the ratings were not the greatest this season.
They were friends until Danielle said she didn’t like Joe using gay slurs. Then Teresa turned on her.
Yeah, she was friends with Teresa and Jacqueline both. If you remember way back in season one that young guy who she thought was her boyfriend but who was really just using her for booty calls was a good friend of Teresa and Joe’s. Teresa set her up with him.
Yeah, Danielle was the first person to call Joe out on his homophopia. It was at that dance class they all took and she got very upset at him using the word fag and called him out on it. Then remember at the first reunion when that friend of Danielle’s who was a makeup artist was working the reunion and the cameras caught Teresa pitching a hissy fit when he went to touch up her makeup. She even went as far as saying she didn’t want anyone like him touching her. Then of course she tried to lie out of it but it’s all on film.
Gosh I totally forgot about that! You are right!
Fake fake fake,,,Teresa wants to hurt Caroline and Jacq by befriended Danielle and Danielle wants to be on the spotlight….what do they have in common? They are thieves, liars and felons. THEY BOTH WENT TO P R I S O N
Ya know…Would it really be that surprising if Teresa and Joe were flaunting their scam? Not only is Teresa an idiot, but she’s an idiot with a sickening superiority complex. She would want people to know that she thought she was smarter than the law and the tax man. I’m not saying that she ran around telling everyone what she was up to, but her friends and family had to have been able to put two and two together.
Think about it: No job, other than the show, but they were building that monstrosity of a house and shopping and buying every luxury item they could get their hands on. Remember those Gucci plates? In short it was obvious that they were living well beyond their apparent means. She told on herself even if she didn’t literally tell on herself.
Both of these women are awful. I have never liked Melissa from day one. It’s time to cancel this dog right along with the OC. Oh and btw Teresa was in prison, Teresa was in prison, Teresa was in prison. What do Teresa and Charles Manson have in common? They were both in prison!! Jailbird Giudice’s!!!!
Well said!!!! She is a thief and obnoxious being ,,Melissa is brainless
The fact that Teresa and Charles Manson were both in prison is the end of the line for the similarities for the two. Charles Manson is a convicted serial killer and was dubbed the icon of evil. Manson is also a psychopath. He was also given the death sentence which he escaped when CA banned the death penalty in 1972.
If you want to make a parallel similarity, Madoff would be more appropriate.
The problem I have with Bravo is that they are sending the message that crime pays. We need to stop glorifying Teresa for committing fraud and stealing money.
I know what Charles Manson did and I never claimed Teresa was a murderer, just that they had something in common.
Teresa is a felon, cant trust anything she says,,,no sympathy for her but for Joe whos in jail thanks to her expensive taste and dreams of royalty,,,i cant understand why she still on tv,,,,, Melissa is just her puppet, i used to like her when she had a brain. Now Teresa thinks people forget she stole 11M…by eliminating the word PRISON?
I DONT THINK SO
Bethania, PLEASE READ THE COMMENTING RULES. If you’d like to continue to post here you are going to need to learn how to use punctuation.
TT, probably don’t post this but I need a giggle so bad this morning since I’m trying not to fall apart, I just imagine the visual of those posts. Mega cup of coffee typing hundred miles an hour, hair blown back, intense eyes. Hee hee
If Danielle is coming back then I will actually be happy. She was so delusional it was hilarious, and without the Manzo clan there we might actually see a different side to her. She’s raised 2 great daughters and seems to be in a much better place in life.
My understanding is that the father and step mom raised the daughters. They lived with them when not filming and the little one was with him full-time following the drama of the show. That being said the didn’t F them up so that’s a place.
What Tre fails to understand is that anyone and everyone could point fingers at her and turn her into the feds and if she had done nothing wrong, nothing would have come of it. Her criminal actions are what landed her in jail, nothing else. I do have a questions though – Tre is a felon on parole, is she allowed to associate with other felons? Danielle is a felon. Isn’t that what the real problem was with the guy wanting to come to the book signing?
Like her or love her, THERESA IS THE STAR OF THE SHOW! We wouldn’t have anything to talk about if not for her! Love your recap Tamara, love your commenters, love, love, love!
Was it just me or was this the worst WWHL? Well except for the drag queen part, that was awesome. This franchise is just a retread and so sick of it. I like Dolores and her family. I like Siggy’s mom. That’s ALL I got.
I actually watched this epidode. Did anyone else catch the promo for the stupid bravo awards thing? It showed the nominees for best style icon or something like that. First nominee was Shannon Beador. Bwahahaha!😂
For what? Dressing like a geriatric retiree? Sorry, but she has TERRIBLE style in addition to the terrible personality.
LOL! Exactly!
That’s weird. Did Bethenny make the cut. I love the way she dresses. Stylists make a huge difference.
One wore black, one wore white. Subliminal styling for good vs evil?
Huh. It is weird how Jax is always full on weeping when something happens about the case. Like not just sad but ugly cry. I guess it’s not so crazy to wonder if it’s because there’s more to it…It’s bizarre because she vacillates from screaming felon like she’s trying to believe she deserves it to breaking down in sobs. I think she’s just looney but that is exactly the response I would expect from someone who “snitched” and regretted it. If she did have any part in it of course it doesn’t make her responsible. But it does make it SO SO CREEPY for her to want to be friends with her again.
Couldn’t stay up, and I don’t dvr WWHL anymore. Thanks for the recap, TT.
This makes me miss the Flintstones. Wilma and Betty were far more relative with better sense of fashion.
Did anyone else notice that Teresa parents were not shown most of the season.
Shangela was robbed. That double wig reveal was everything. Dressing as Dionne from Clueless was the cherry on top!
