I finally talked to my source about RHONJ last night. According to TamaraTattles exclusive source, Bravo was very pleased by the reunion and think they have enough compelling footage to make a three part finale. I really would not believe this but this is TamaraTattles same source that said that RHONJ was disappointing this season and that they cut down the number of episodes in post production. The same source promises that RHOA “gets better.” So… we shall see how the reunion works out and if RHOA does indeed get better. I mean it couldn’t get much worse right? This is a solid source so I will try to muster some hope. And at least we are going to Tokyo.
Back in New Jersey, I fear we are going to rehash Jackie’s story about rich people spoiling their children a billion times this episode. I’m in a down mood tonight because I broke one of my “treasures” tonight accidentally. It was one of those things that happens in slow motion. Hopefully these fools will take my mind off of it. đ
Tonight all of the ladies are going to visit a winery. There are few things I admire about Teresa Giudice, but her ability to stick to a very strict diet while going to all these events is admirable. That will likely be my first and last compliment for this non-repentant felon who continues to live a life of excess…somehow.Â
Jennifer asks to use the bathroom at Jackie’s so she could see her house. Nice move to collect ammunition for the trip, Jennifer. She compliments the house to Jackie’s face and then mutters, “What a dump.”
Meanwhile, Teresa isn’t sure how fruit grows. Trees? The ground? Remember gentle readers, I have been told that editing has been told to make Teresa look LESS dumb. Can you imagine the raw footage? Jackie opens up on the bus saying she was a fat brunette in high school. I love Jackie. I was skinny as hell in high school and am the size of a bus now. I would have chosen to have it the other way around if I could. I wanted to be a LITTLE old lady, not LARGE MARGE. No offense, Marge.
Teresa calls the disbarred lawyer Frank to ask if she can wine at the winery. He says no. Did the other trainer fire her for being “too fat”? Frank is going to tattoo Dolores’ name on him. No one understands this relationship. As Teresa munches down on grilled chicken, Jennifer points out that it is almost impossible to find chicken in Turkey. I have never thought about this before but I don’t think I ever ate chicken in Libya. Perhaps that is why we ate so damn much chicken in my later childhood back in the US. I mean we ate a lot of chicken. My mother’s recipe file must have 200 ways to cook chicken. I thought it was just my very frugal parents being frugal. Now it all makes sense. It also makes sense that I crave schwarma (what you call gyros, more or less) all the time and it is my go to food in Paris. Sorry oversharing again.
Jennifer got everyone gifts except for Marge who she somehow knew referred to his brother’s fiancee as mail order bride. I mean she kind of is in the American sense of the term but arranged marriages remain very popular in other parts of the world. She gives Jackie a Turkish knife so that the next time she wants to stab her in the back she can see it coming. I have to say, I am liking this snarky Jennifer. The usual sides were taken when Jennifer and Jackie fight over the article. The article did not say anything disparaging about Jennifer’s kids at all. Jackie apologizes for hurting Jennifer’s feelings. That was not her intention. Jennifer accepts the apology.
At the wine tasting, Teresa is dying drinking only water. She talks about Milania’s listening party and Jackie points out this is not a parenting decision everyone would make. Marge shares a story about going on dates with her Marge Sr when she was dating a married man. This is a segue so that Jennifer can come for Marge about her infidelities. Jennifer is a loud drunk and is very drunk. We are back in Oklahoma when Jennifer was so rude to the ranch owner.
After the commercial break, we are abruptly back from the winery and Teresa is visiting Danielle and Marty. Danielle made fish and steamed veggies for Teresa. She’s good. Teresa says she just came back from seeing Joe. Are we finally going to mention the elephant in the room? That would be great but I don’t believe she went to see him. I almost believe she went for Christmas to say good-bye with the kids but she has said many times herself she doesn’t go because she doesn’t like prisons. Teresa says in confessional she never talks with Joe about deportation. They just talk about what they will do when he comes home. Because Teresa lives in some sort of alternate universe that is heavily funded by money from somewhere. Supposedly,she already has a boy toy on the side. Or three.
When Teresa invites Danielle to Milania’s “listening party” that no one wants to listen to, she mentions all the girls are invited. Immediately, Danielle starts trashing Marge and saying that she told her not to trust Teresa or Melissa. Lie.
Jackie wants to reconcile with her sister before her parents start getting sick and they are stuck in a hospital waiting room together. Marge encourages her to fix it. Jennifer and Dolores go for a walk. Jennifer and Marge still have a lot of conflict.
Milania meets with a dance coach the day before her listening party. Because, why practice? Melissa comes to support her but Teresa doesn’t seem to appreciate her presence. Milania’s dancing is worse than her “rapping.” This sad to watch and no parent should put this on TV. The listening party is going to be the final shit show of the episode.
REMINDER: MILANIA IS TWELVE. And has three inch stiletto fingernails and a hair and makeup crew. This is so wrong. She is in either sixth or seventh grade. I imagine she gets bullied A LOT for this shit. If I were a parent of a twelve year old, I would not allow Milania at my kids birthday parties on the nail issue alone. Let along the felonious parents. Despite all the inappropriate crap that Teresa is doing to try to make up for having felons for parents, Milania is still sad. Apparently, Joe emailed her his undying support for rapping and hanging around Fetty Wap whose breakout single, Trap Queen, is about teaching a woman how to cook crack on a stove. He has an arrest record a mile long and hangs out with people convicted of underage sex crimes. Such great parenting skills. Even if she was 18 this would be inappropriate. #ShadeOfRKelly
Some of the moms arrive with their kids but not until after Fetty Wap is off set though one of the kids got a photo with him outside. Le sigh. This just really triggers me as the snowflakes would say. Parents are supposed to protect their children, not put them in the room with inappropriate people for children, knowingly. I actually expected better from Gia, the seventeen year old than Teresa but she is there in support as well.
The saddest part is morons will buy and support this song. And not just twelve year olds. The very autotuned song is very cute though. At least what we heard of it. In other disturbing news about children, the juvenile delinquent that was on Dr. Phil got a $900K contract with some cosmetics(?) company today? I predict she will be dead or in jail before she ever sees 18. Sad, but most likely true. What the fuck is going on in the world? We also have adult women twerking on the roof of an SUV during rush hour traffic. This is real news! I just don’t get it at all.
I hope Jackie writes an article.
After Teresa’s competition, everyone is going to Cabo. But first, Melissa need to confront Danielle and Marge may have a few choice words as well. Danielle says that Marge told here not to trust Melissa and Danielle. Marge says she told Danielle not to trust anyone and she is twisting her words. Meanwhile, Marty is sticking up for Danielle with the guys and Joe is sticking up for Marge. This should go well. Marty tells Joe that Margaret doesn’t want to walk into a room with Danielle because no one will look at Margaret. Wow. Love is blind. Joe wants to swing on him but Joe Gorga stops him. Meanwhile back at the female fight, Dolores said that Danielle did the same thing to her last year and that is why she can’t be around her.
Next week: Teresa finally competes after Frank turns her into Tan Mom. Melissa’s “I might have a third sister” storyline develops. And they finally get to Cabo and Danielle is there. Marge and Jennifer get in to it. Will a cake be thrown? Marge says something looks like a monkey’s asshole and Jennifer loses her shit. Le sigh. How many more episodes of this crap do we have?
You said it all TT. Great honest recap.
This has gotten so bad.
What exactly do the producers think that Danielle brings to this show? She’s a horrible, black cloud.
This is so bad that it can’t even be producer manipulated.
Marge a mean girl????
Agree with you on all points. NJ housewives have gotten almost unbearable to watch. I cannot stand Danielle, or stand to look at her. Marty must have been blinded by love at the time. This woman is hideous.
I haven’t watched the show yet, but here’s what I have to say about the recap: Teresa is getting trained by Frank Senior, because he is thirsty AF for screen time.
I think he wants a body building show. Maybe a competition / weekly elimination. If Tre wins, itâs over for us.
They’ll probably give to her just because of the publicity. Tamara looked great at her competition but the winner?? No.
I think he wants a body building show. Maybe a competition / weekly elimination. If Tre wins, itâs over for us. It will be a contest on which of them will milk it to death.
Teresa is so obtuse. This episode was sad on so many levels.
Obtuse. now we all know how smart you are. Next time how about salty or spicey.
I would pay good money to see Teresaâs real edit, not the âsmartened upâ edit.
I’m in. Can we crowd fund this?
TT, any chance one of your sources could snag that for us? đ
I won’t watch the show anymore because I don’t want to risk giving The Felon any ratings. However, I would also pay good money to see the unedited version!
Iâm in for $20!
Me too, the woman does not know how fruit grows and had never used an adverb.
#metoo for stupid felons unedited
“I hope Jackie writes an article”!!! Omg you slay me. I watch for Marge and Marge only. She is golden in my book. Haven’t watched yet, just got home from a verrry looong night but almost feel like I don’t have to now!! T, I broke a blue and white oval bowl that was my grandmothers and I still have the pieces, somehow believing that I will repair it one day. It always held the green peas and pearl onions on Thanksgiving but was never used otherwise. I feel ya girl. And you want to rewind but can’t. Sucks. Bad. Thanks for taking one for the team!!
Do it Nancy, get a small tube of Super Glue at the pharmacy or Home Depot/Loweâs and put those pieces together. Your Grandmaâs bowl may end up looking as good as new! And, if it doesnât, the act of trying to restore âherâ might help you release the attachment or guilt. Just be careful with the glue- a dot of that stuff in the wrong place and you could be holding onto the bowl, literally.
Tamara, so sorry for your mishap. Been there, sad. I hope thereâs a photo or something of your treasure in its glory
My cat ( who was awesomely sweet & a ass all at the same time) broke 2 treasures from my grandma. Had all the pieces and tried glueing them back together, Sadly they almost looked worse after ârepairsâ (swear, my parents say I passed paste & glue lessons in kindergarten.. clearly they are lying!) So I ended up breaking them again, between 2 towels, then made a mosaic piece in a old frame that I had repainted (I can paint!) It turned out well, and I love it! Every time I look at it I smile, knowing my Gran probably giggled watching me!
Sorry if I overshared.
Iman, that is the sweetest story and such a great idea! I bet your Gran was laughing the whole time. đ
Iman, brilliant idea! I thought if Nancy were to try, but then not like the result, that would be enough to help her let go. But your story of repurposing your treasure after trying to repair it is so much better! Iâll remember this, as thereâs sure to be a break in my future. Thanks for sharing.
What TF was Marge wearing? A $2.99 camisole with polyester appliqué as a top? Delores has zero fashion sense, a tuxedo jacket with lace cold shoulder sleeves circa 2002. RHONJ has the worst dressed women hands down.
If you garden, put the pieces in a rock tumbler and put them around the plants, mixed in with river pebbles and beach glass. If your grandma had a favorite plant, you can pot it and use the pebble mix.
Beautiful ….perfect! Xo
Save the pieces! My Nanny, an artist, has a fellow artist friend who uses pieces of broken pottery (loved things because of the loved one) and began to make something out of it (he was a biologist before retiring decades ago yet always explored his love of art)—ceramic installations….my term —I’m not an artist, but I know it when I see it ;-). If it can’t be glued, put it a clear glass bowl with other pretty stuff you like…something…it’s not broken, just different and new.
Tamara, I wanted to be a LITTLE old lady too and will soon travel to see my sister who is one. As children she called me Baby Huey(the plump diapered duck.) I thought it was my name. She was relentless!Today my adorable dentist glued my fake front tooth back in and I told him if he couldnât do it thatâs fine because my tiny sister would focus on my gummy smile instead all the weight Iâve gained in 10 years .Sibling Rivalry in the golden years.đ”đ»
Teresa ,the cookbook author does not know where fruit is from or how there is sugar in fruit. Her next cookbook should be on managing diabetes-if she can say it.
I snort laughed about Teresaâs diabetes cookbook. And of course Iâd love an audio version just to hear the word butchering!
Macaroni Mama, good point that the cookbook author doesnât know where fruit comes from! For Teresa, the fruit just comes from the grocery store. Sad, but not surprising. A lot of people donât think about how something gets to a store, or, more commonly lately, their porch. Theyâd be surprised that the raw materials for a common No. 2 pencilâgraphite, wood, paint, rubber, metal-are sourced from five countries around the world.
Oh my…..My mom and I were both called baby Huey! The where does fruit come from….man oh man….it is a multilevel mess.
Do body building competitions still exist? This seems so 1970’s. This story line is so boring, time to recast show!
Great recap.
Teresa plans a party the same night as her youngest has a recital? Great planning. Milania needs to lose the nails and go back to playing soccer. Did the Giudices not learn from Gia’s failed attempts at fame? I am glad Gia decided to focus on college and got the stars out of her eyes.
What did Danielle have woven into her hair? It looked like craft yarn. Matted hair is not a good look.
Too bad Marty and Danielle broke up-they were the perfect delusional couple.
Jennifer is just an awful person. No wonder she has clicked with Danielle and Teresa.
Jackie the first RH in a long time who knows how to apologize. I hope she stays far, far away from Danielle.
VV,
Danielle’s hair part should have had its own episode. I look like that when I wake up. Who did this?
Danielleâs hair part can share a show with Treâs hairline.
I am totally here for that!
Margaret’s story line might get interesting. As reported in the Nat Law Review last month, her company violated 2 stipulations in the law suit with Vineyard Vines. She failed to make payments and got hit with an additional $500,000 in lawyers fees. I saw she was driving a brand new Range Rover in last nights episode. Seems like Marge is having some serious money issues?
I believe she talked at the Reunion about being sued by Vineyard Vines. She used a design with a whale (their trademark) Delores or Siggy called her out on the charges.
When Teresa said that she was not into Melissa’s music I had to wonder what kind of music IS Tre into? Is she trying to pretend that she is into hip hop/rap???
Melania has been given this very costly opportunity and I wonder what she has done to earn such a platform? Hard work, dance lessons, music lessons, practice, youth theatre? Has a teacher approached Tre regarding her daughter’s talent? I’m guessing Melania wanted it and Tre made it happen. So, there are grand delusions regarding a musical career in the future.
Makes me think back to when Tre & her kids constantly criticized Melissa for her songs/videos/performances. I though Melissa looked like a dancer and performed her ass off. I remember “on display”, which wasn’t such a bad song. I thought she did a good job.
She worked hard and it showed.
Melania is a kid, so I won’t say anymore, but if your child truly loves to perform it’s best to give them a good foundation like music lessons, dance lessons, auditions for local shows, get involved in community theatre, etc. Best thing is to buy a sound recorder so they can hear themselves. Best learning tool money could buy.
Next Week Marge said that Jennifer’s Lip Liner is so thick it makes her mouth look like a monkey’s asshole. hehehehe Only Margaret could come up with that one! LOL
TT, I can not believe that Tre put her kid on TV to be graced by this famous rap singer’s presence only to find out his background, which you posted. Why don’t parents to their homework to find out what their kids are listening to? I remember when Slayer had album/cd covers with 666 and devil crap on it, oh, hell no! And now this stuff with rape and killing and all this inappropriate language? I’m not into censorship, but I am into Parents Educating themselves. If we don’t protect our kids who will? Tre is dumb, but she should invest in advocates for her children. Someone who has “a clue” would be a giant step in the right direction. Seems like Tre’s kids are raising her, instead of visa versa. We know what a bullhead she is, but it would serve her and her children if she would realize her faults and spend money on things that really matter. Like her children’s best interest.
Anyway, TT, I wanted to thank you for educating us regarding this Fetty Wap guy. Why in the hell didn’t TRE do her homework before setting her kid up with him on national tv? It’s a parent’s job to advocate for their kids. Tre should invest in a nanny or someone with a CLUE instead of spending money on frivolous junk like huge ceramic vases and designer clothes.
Look back in the archives here to a story about Teresa taking milania to a concert. She knows exactly who he is and was also hanging out with another rapper that’s worse. She doesn’t care.
Disgusting! But she is a convict, so, I guess we shouldn’t expect more from her. SAD!
Gia is more mature than her own mother.
Oy, this again. Jennifer should probably read the article so she has the full picture before going on the defensive. On the other hand, Jackie is a gaslighter. She can’t realistically expect to go into a new acquaintances home, take inspiration from their living arrangement for an article, directly reference the acquantence in said article without so much as a heads up and expect them to be totally cool with that. Calling Jen paranoid for feeling some kinda way for having her home life used as a case study in whether gift giving directly correlates with children being “spoiled” is bullshit. I like Jackie, but I don’t like her attitude in this situation.
Drunk Jennifer is hilarious. She read Margaret to filth haha! I’m all for Marge Jr’s snarky one liners but if she wants to dish it out she needs to be able to receive it back. Glad she’s stuck to her guns with Danielle and Marty’s take on the situation was beyond shitty. I do believe Danielle when she said she attacks from a place of hurt. It’s just unfortunate for her and everyone around her that the slightest thing triggers that “hurt”.
But Marge is SO jealous of Danielle, don’t you see?? Every time she walks in a room, “everyone is looking at Danielle and not at HER!”
When Marty said that I knew it was a direct quote from Danielle. What is she 15? Marge is happily married for many years, has long term friends, owns a successful business but she’s jealous of Danielle’s strikingly plastic appearance.
(Btw, TT, you’ve gotta post a pic of Madam the Puppet from the 70’s/80’s. Danielle is a dead ringer)
I’m so glad you pointed out all the wrong with the parenting of Melania. I have a 13 year old daughter and as I was watching I was thinking of how strict I must be because she isnt allowed to wear makeup, have her nails professionally done or hang out with rappers. Lol. I’m glad someone else sees that Melania is WAY overdone for a 12 year old.
Since Wendy Williams is off this week, they have brought in a group of four panelist that change each day to do the live show. Every group seemed to have one person who has done live TV before. Today that person was Don Lemon. I forget who the other three people were but they talked about Milania this morning and the other male went in on how bad Milania’s signing was and how much autotune it took to even get it to that point. He felt like someone should tell her the truth. It’s Teresa’s fault that everyone is talking about her TWELVE YEAR OLD daughter’s lack of talent today.
Yes for sure it was heavily autotuned and it appeared she was lip syncing the performance. I understand Milania is having a hard time with her dad being away but this is not the way to make up for it! She is a ridiculous role model and mother.
Thank you.
I need to call my brother and ask him if the property values in Morristown dropped after the visits from the Guidi.
I really cannot stand Jennifer. She is a horrible addition to the cast. Sheâs attacks Jackie about the article but itâs very obvious she didnât read the article in its entirety. Or, maybe she did and is just too stupid to understand it.
Teresa, Jennifer and Dolores need to go ASAP!
And I really liked Dolores the first few seasons…she seemed logical, loyal and tough as shit. Now she just comes across as a pathetic and desperate women who thinks her âold school waysâ are something to be proud of.
I just feel bad for Milania. Sheâs the daughter suffering most from having her dad gone and Teresa is allowing/pushing her to embarrass herself with all this rapping/singing stuff. I genuinely feel bad for Milania and feel sheâs the one daughter thatâs going to end up troubled in the future.
As far as Danielle, she is legit crazy. I dont understand why she was brought back.
Agree. I canât stand Jennifer either. Bragging Jennifer needs to go. Who brought her on the show other than the producers? I guess she is good for laughs for her constant bosting about her dumb house. What a classless clown.
Melissa can go too. All we need to see of Melissa is in the context of when we see her with Treâs brother. She has gotten too big for her britches. She isnât particularly interesting where as Teresaâs Archie Bunker problems with pronouncing words is amusing! I mean she entered a body building bikini competition. Why? Does she have something to prove to the prison ladies she left behind? She pushes her kids to perform even if they cannot sing, dance, or act. She gets angry and blows up in s roid like rage … I am suprised she hasnât got into a physical altercation or something else to violate her parole. Keep her. Dump her hungry sister-in-law so we can see if Mellisa can keep her boutique open without the help of a Bravo paycheck. Joe was correct about her only making enough money to buy clothes.
Margaret is real. She is a character. I like her. She is honest. Her real life is interesting.
We know that Danielle is out. She has no story line other than complaining about people, and causing trouble.
Delores is interesting. I mean who else occasionally dates a doctor but spends the rest of their life living with their ex-husband even after the kid is gone? They may as well become a full couple again because there isnât room for anyone else. Letâs keep her and Frank. Plus that I like her genuine concern for women in need. She flips houses. And donât forget the faux fur cuffs & trim on her reunion dress! She is an outspoken character.
Delores has her head too far up Teresa’s ass. I’m tired of her running to Tre’s side when there’s even the slightest provocation but the moment someone backs the other person, she tells them to back off, it’s not of their business. I’m tired of her lunches where she schools various cast members on the proper way to treat Teresa. Apparently only Delores can back someone and it’s different with her cause she and Tre are, “fambly”.
Last I looked her hairline didn’t end a 1/2 inch above her eyebrows so I doubt they’re related.
I still laugh thinking about how Jennifer’s own husband read the article and agreed with it, even saying it wasn’t some attack. I sense that Jennifer and Teresa are neighbors in the same IQ subdivision..
Tamara, I hope it wasnât your fancy pants Champagne flute that broke. I really want to see a photo of it one day … instead of a Tre photo or TRave maybe.
I am confused. Didnât we see Milania meeting Fetty Wap a few weeks ago? Last night, her big âsurpriseâ was âmeetingâ Fetty Wap, not just reacquainting with him.
Those nails … every time they are different and equally hideous. All that money may be better spent on therapy or education. Or plane trips to Italy to visit daddy.
Tre loves Fetty because he grew up in her hometown of Patterson. Wouldnât be surprised if Milania lives with Joe. Tre believing Danielle over Marge is pathetic. This show would be so much better if they only had Melissa, Jackie and Marge on. At least they have some brain cells.
I agree with you about only having the 3 cast members. I find them the most entertaining. This new Jennifer gets on my nerves. Not liking her showy, ridiculous ways.
Melania rapping was cringe-worthy. Teresa couldn’t come up with another way to boost Melania’s confidence–like tae kwon do? And Melania thinks this song will be the ticket to her making more $$$ than Teresa? LOL. I just can’t with this!
I kind of love Jennifer. She is the right amount of crazy and lovable. She’s not afraid to confront anyone, and she is completely nuts when drinking.
Not sure why Danielle lied about Margaret. Everyone knows Margaret is a good soul and isn’t a nasty gossip. Danielle is the one suffering the loss of a friend in Margaret. Margaret lost nothing.
Teresa continues to stay on Danielle’s side despite all evidence pointing to Danielle being a psychopath. One good thing I will say about Danielle is that I love her hair parted on the side like that. She looks much better. Marty should get punched for saying the hateful thing he said about Margaret. Unacceptable!
Why would Teresa, the ignorant ex-con, want to hang around a kind,bright, and respected woman? At least hanging around Danielle makes Teresa seem less unlikeable. Birds of a feather, flock together. And why would Danielle lie about Margaret? Jealousy. Marty probably repeated what he heard Danielle say at home – that Margaret is jealous of HER. Project much, Danielle?
If you look back at the scene where Margaret shows her texts to Jackie and Melissa her and Danielle texts. Freeze the screen- the texts talk about Margaret saying not trusting anyone and reference us weekly, and a â Pricilla and Dorothy.â And Margaret wanted to have a three way call.
Then Danielle texts says something like âyou said not to trust anyoneâ confirming what Margaret was saying.
Ahh, fascinating. So when Danielle had originally said to Margaret that she didnât know whom to trust, she wasnât even talking about the group of ladies, she was referring to the media? That makes Margaretâs reply, âThen donât trust anyoneâ even more understandable. The way Margaret paused when she was confronted like she was remembering the convo with Danielle made me a bit suspicious. Now Iâm not.
Also, I hate to admit it, but Dolores was right. I really believed she must have said something last year to Danielle a little shady about Teresa and money, but it probably was something very innocent about Teresaâs money worries (yes, I know how that soundsâthe way Teresa spends money, what worries?)
In Danielleâs defense (?), maybe she truly hears and interprets what people say negatively? Does she even realize sheâs twisting the truth?
I bet you’re a nice kind hearted person so you’re giving Danielle the benefit of the doubt. She doesn’t deserve it. I didn’t believe her last year when she claimed Delores confided in her that she shouldn’t trust Teresa. No way. Why would Delores of all people, Teresa’s bodyguard, confide in someone she doesn’t trust? Made zero sense. Danielle is a lying liar face.
Aww, youâre sweet, Slice! The reason I thought Dolores might have said something shady last year to Danielle about Teresa is that I had heard or read something about Marty doing Dolores a favor by talking to Frankie about Finance/Business. I didnât think Dolores had said it the way Danielle made it sound, but I thought maybe she had said something to kind of throw Danielle a bone for Marty helping Frankie. Also, at the time I was partial toward Margaret/Danielle against Dolores/Siggy, so that might have colored my view.
When I saw Margaret have the same incredulous, âAre you kidding me?!â pause that Dolores exhibited last year, I realized Danielle had twisted both of their comments.
So if Danielle is lying, does she know it, is it all part of her plan to discredit someone or get more airtime? Or does she truly believe her lies?
Teresa is one of the most jealous, delusional, and insecure people Iâve ever seen on a reality show. I also think she was very uncomfortable when Danielle was asking her about Joe. The stuff she was saying was nonsense.
Danielle is so obvious when sheâs trying to manipulate people that itâs pathetic.
Iâve never thought Joe Gorga was hot until this season. That facial scruff looks gooooood on him.
Unpopular opinion, but I dont see the big issue with Melania’s nails. Shes a pre-teen and at that age I was dying my hair with kool-aid and painting my nails all sorts of wild colors. My mom didn’t care because its just temporary and doesnt hurt anything.
Of course the hanging out with adult rappers and pushing her into a spotlight she isnt remotely prepared for are a whole different story.
I just saw several pic’s of Milania on vacation and some holiday. She looked at least 16. She had a full face of make up and was wearing a tight top and a skirt that was so tight it looked like it was made of spandex. I thought maybe I made a mistake re’ her age until I read here that she was 12.
While watching Milania performing I kept thinking about my son. He was very depressed when his dad left our home when he was 12. He felt, “invisible” for 2 yrs and he had this need to prove something to people. So this quiet kid tried out/won the lead in the school’s production of West Side Story-he’s 14 and sang two solo’s-love songs. He’s NOT a singer but he was awesome-for a middle school musical. It was brave for a14 yr old boy to sing love songs in front of 200 people including his peers. I’m so glad he did it. He felt SO much better about himself afterwards. That being said, I know his limitations and would never assume because I think he’s the greatest thing since sliced bread, America would believe the same thing. #Perspective. That wouldn’t be protecting him. Teresa has always been a stage mom. That cringe worthy episode of Milania singing/dancing will follow her for many years to come. As if she didn’t have enough trouble in school already.
Sorry for the ramble….
Very impressed with this re-cap! I would say it was the best blog, for this episode, out there. You really hit every important point & nuance that needed to be discussed.
*I also crave shawarma. When moving to a new state/city..it’s the first thing I try and find a decent version of*
Great Recap! Thanks for hanging in on this nonsense. Theresa doesnât have the mental capacity to understand that she is exposing her daughter to a horribly vile person. Next thing we have to gird our loins for is when T drops the bomb on the girls that Daddy is âvacationing â in Italy. Poor things.
