Rumor Fix : Teresa Causes Explosive Fight @ Posche Fashion Show
It has been a drama filled few days for our beloved housewives, in particular: Team Gorga and Team Giudice. So I would like to give you as much info as I currently have.
As we know the cast is currently filming season 4, and this week happened to find themselves at the Posche Fashion Show & scheduled to do the season 3 reunion the following day. Originally we saw tweets from Melissa Gorga, saying she was NOT attending the fashion show this year. Those tweets have since been removed, and I am assuming it is because Bravo notified each wive that filming at the show was mandatory. So, confirmed by pictures and videos, along with tweets and blogs... We can confirm with certainty that Melissa Gorga did attend.
It's safe to say she probably wishes she told Bravo to F off, and skipped it.
On a side note, little did anyone know the notorious Kim G was crouched in the rafters, watching their every move. Creepy. Some tweeters have speculated that she is the source of the drama I'm about to describe, but I'm not so sure. I for sure would not put it past her, but I think this time she was merely stalking the girls from her "fabulous condo" that happens to look over the building Kim D used for her show this year. Kim G most likely buys a condo each time she finds out an event is being held so she can stalk the wives, I still don't think she has gotten over the fact that she's never been cast as more than a guest wife. But anyways enough of granny tails......
So there is no clear timeline of what went on during the show, the wives have been hush hush about the events because it's from season 4 and they can't really talk about it without revealing too much.
So major dramatic happening #1 :
A man named Angelo Vorhees arrives at the fashion show and attempts to confront Melissa. He is or was a manager at a club she formerly worked at , more specifilly a gentle mans club, called Lookers. Mel claims she only worked at the club for several months if that, and she was merely a bartender. She backs up her claim with some legalities... It is illegal in New Jersey to serve alcohol in a bar where there is nudity. So is she telling us there are no strip clubs in Jersey? I find that hard to believe. Possibly this means topless is allowed, that's how it is in NY. She describes it as a bikini bar, but according to her and her former manager who spoke to US Magazine, she never wore a bikini or anything less than that. Her former manager, Larry Guarino talked to US ....
US Magazine : Melissa Gorgs was never a stripper
"She was never ever a dancer. Angelo never even worked with her because he worked during the day and she worked at night," argued Guarino, who trained Voorhees as a Lookers manager prior to Gorga's hiring.
He claims she had little to no contact with Vorhees so he wouldn't know jack anyways. A source for US also had some accusations to throw at Teresa Giudice, who once again is the center of this whole ordeal. It is believed she set up Melissa and in cohorts with Kim D, invited Vorhees to confront her sister in law at the fashion show. One of my questions lately has been why Kim D? Yes she is close with Teresa... But I never saw her as the malicious, mud slinging type. Especially since I have never seen any tension between her and Melissa.
When Angelo Vorhees approached Melissa she ran away and refused to speak to him. Alot of my tweeters have attributed this to her guilt. Why is she running away if she has nothing to hide? I think personally she was trying to avoid a huge dramatic confrontation resulting in a media blitz about whether or not she used to be a stripper. Which happened anyways. Basically whoever was behind this got exactly what they were looking for. According to many sources and opinions, that person is of course Teresa Giudice.
But good old Tre was quick to save face. When MG refuses to speak to Vorhees, Teresa steps in to save her beloved sister in law.. Ahahahahahahahahaha. Sure. Anyways, she speaks to Vorhees and cuts him off halfway through, telling him not to mess with her family. Totally coming off like she is on Melissas side. MG knows better. She ends up calling Joe Gorga who shows up at the venue, and gives both Kim D & Teresa a piece of his mind before either of them can try to explain otherwise.
Now the aftermath. Apparently the wives are disgusted by Tre again, most definitely Jacqueline. She gets home and takes to twitter to vent her frustration, claiming "someone was set up (not me)" and she goes on to express how she is totally done with the show and won't be attending the reunion. She says she is "feverish" and seems to be very upset. It is pretty apparent just by her tweets that this is all towards Teresa.
Jacqueline Leaving RHONJ: over stripper set up??
Now heres where the rumors float in. According to some not so reliable sources, including blogs, Teresa sees her tweets, calls up Jac and a fight insues on the phone. Jac gets mad and threatens to post a picture that she somehow has of Joe Giudice at dinner with another woman - it's a bit fuzzy and no one can be sure. Some have suggested it may even be Joes brother and his wife. In certain articles it said the two were getting very "intimate" at din din.. For example she took a sip of his martini and "used her wet nap to clean his hands off". I don't know about you guys, but it really turns my husband on when I wet nap his hands.
Back to the drama though, now we have Jacqueline who has quit the show. Teresa inevitably takes to twitter and give us the usual schpiel.... She loves her family, she never said Melissa was a stripper, and it's all lies. Then she throws in, "what really happened is way more sickening". A cryptic message indeed.
Melissa took to her private blog on her website today to set the story straight. She didn't mention much, except the allegations of her stripping are false and that she was set up by someone who then blamed the incident on production to try and look innocent. Now we have this statement made by both Melissa and Jacqueline, so I would say it's safe to believe Teresa had a hand in this.
Melissa Gorga's Blog
A mystery to add in this mess is that Angelo Vorhees was conveniently mic'd up for his debut confrontation. This has led to some beliefs that Bravo indeed is responsible. That is what Teresa believes as well,however a Bravo spokesperson mentioned in several articles said they had nothing to do with it. Huffington Post, a known Teresa supporter, has a source who completely believes this is Bravos doing. The headline of the article is "Melissa Gorgas stripper past revealed" so we don't have to guess what their take on the situation is. Along with some other informed tweeters, I firmly believe Tre is the source for HP. It just sounds like her, but you can check it out yourselves!

Amid all this Melissa drama is the Juicy Joe situation. A picture was taken by a patron of TGIFridays in Clifton, NJ which is a slightly fuzzy rendition of Juicy with a woman in her late 20s to early 30s. A thought crossed my mind.... Maybe Teresa saw this scandal coming, and decided to create another scandal to divert the attention away from Joe? Entirely possible. She has not made any statements confirming or denying the photo. Like I mentioned before, it has a stong resemblance to Joes brother and his wife, so it could be nothing. This isn't the first mention of Juicys infidelity however, even though last time it was completely unfounded. I guess time will tell on that one.

So in summary, We have lost one of our favorite originals..Jacqueline, which I am very sad about. Her last tweet read : "Im throwing the trash out. Cleaning and reorganizing, starting fresh and new". I can't say I blame her. Things have taken a not so great turn since season 1 when all the wives were just a tad more innocent.
I totally understand why Teresa has changed, she has gone through so much. I hope when her problems are resolved, the Tre we know and love will resurface. For now, I think it's incredibly difficult for her to accept Melissa and Kathy onto the show, which she ultimately sees as her turf. What would be great is if she realized she doesnt sound so good when she bashes one or the other, and contradicts herself over and over. Example , she accused Melissa and Kathy as using the show to make money on anything they could. But in one of her latest blogs Jacqueline said it all. Did Teresa not capitalize on the show thru her cookbooks, website, clothing line...for gods sake, toothpaste!? Yes, she used and uses RHONJ as a platform and why not? She just needs to realize that other people also have that right.
As for the fashion show drama, I'm at a loss for words on her motives. If she truly is trying to reconcile with Melissa and Joe, who have bent over backwards for her in my eyes all season, why why why would she choose to do this!? I would say all hope is lost on that relationship as it stands. I'm sure it didn't go very far past Melissa and Joe viewing her snarky comments behind their backs all season long. It just makes no sense. Obviously, she has alterior motives.
Only time will tell the truth to this very confusing situation.... Season 4 is a long time away, but hopefully the reunion will shed some light. Apparently with Posche still fresh in their minds, the wives were not so thrilled with Teresa. Cant wait for this weeks show!!!!
