The Real Housewives of New Jersey drama keeps escalating. The Huffington Post was able to uncover the whole “being set-up” drama. I guess Melissa’s old boss from the strip club she used to work at showed up to the fashion show at Posche, Melissa freaked out and it caused a big sh*t storm. Everyone is blaming Teresa for the mess, but The Huff Post has a different side to the story…
A source told The Huffington Post,
The ladies were taping a fashion show at Posche. Teresa [Giudice] didn’t want to go because she’s completely over the fake Bravo set-ups; however, no one knew what was about to happen. Melissa [Gorga] was nervous that ex-Housewife Danielle Staub was going to show up, but it turned out the surprise guest would be much more damaging.
Bravo’s surprise at the fashion show was for Melissa: her ex-boss at Lookers, the strip club she used to work at. No one knew him, no one knew he was coming — although, of course Bravo had a microphone on him — and Melissa ran away from him and refused to film with him. The producers made Teresa talk to him to ‘hear him out,’ so his accusations would be aired on camera, but Teresa stopped him mid-story and told him to not talk about her family and left.
Melissa doesn’t want her new besties, Caroline and Jacqueline, to know about her past (including who paid for her fake boobs), so she came back to the table and told everyone that Teresa had set her up. Teresa had nothing to do with it, but Jac and Caroline were more than ready to go with it because it makes Teresa look bad. And Bravo will never admit they set it up like they set up Danielle, whose past was also ‘accidentally’ discovered.
I can’t wait to see the finale! It sounds completely insane! The article the Huff Post wrote is very Teresa sided, I’m curious to hear all sides of the story at the reunion. And I thought last season’s reunion was insane, this year’s is going to take the cake. Oh, and seems like being a stripper and a Bravo New Jersey Housewife go hand-in-hand.
If you like it, spread it!:

Of course stripping and being a Housewife go hand in hand! How do you think these sleazos and sleazettes find each other in the first place? His crotch meets her ass in the Champagne room, and one tacky Jersey wedding later, it’s fairy tale time.
The HuffPo piece is totally different from what Reality Tea is saying. I think the Huff Po one is harder to believe. Also, the twitter wars going on with them all lead me to believe Tee is involved in all of this. Why would you ever go on a show if you had a past?
I want to really know how can any one be shocked.What a joke and ratings grab for the morally bankrupt cast and Bravo.Come on just hearing them talk you can tell that education and having positive income on people never entered there minds. The goal is get stuff and think they are all better then other people and sad to say that is why thre adult children are a mess
So she really was on display, on display?
@sunshine – i’m with you on this. i’m sure teresa told a producer, and they made it happen. if not t, someone did. a stripclub manager doesn’t just randomly show up to a fashion show.
@notwith–rofl—a love story that writes itself!!!!
I hope there is a RHONJ marathon coming up soon—Gin and Juicy Joe had a lot of mean. mean comments about Melissa and I am trying to remember them now–maybe he referred to her “past” in his usual subtle and sub-titled way. Shed some light on this table-dancing from youth “lady”
This is going off the rails– when is the finale ????
was there mention on one of the recent shows about Melis being a “waitress” ????
I have to not drink when I watch this show. Yeah- good luck with that self.
According to the owner of the club where she supposedly stripped, she was actually a bar tender. And the “former boss” never even worked the same shift she did. But it was all set up by Theresa (duh) even though she was trying to act surprised.

And here is Jaq explaining via twitter how Theresa set it up:

So if they didn’t even work the same shift, why did dear sweet Mel freak out when she saw him? I don’t think I’d even remember someone who worked at a place where I “only worked for a few months” years ago that didn’t even work my shift. If she was really a bartender, then what’s the big deal Mel???
And hey, was Jacqui a stripper in Vegas?
@ fan-Ann nice…lol
Now it makes sense about Danielle’s book coming to light.
Jazzy, only guessing here, of course, but maybe because there had already been an allegation of stripping? If it wasn’t mentioned, then why all of the tweets denying stripping from Mel and denying that she said that from Tre? That might have come out before and then when she saw the guy from the strip club where she worked, she freaked. After all, it was in the middle of a bunch of society bitches for a fashion show. It would have been embarassing for her.
Though, really, even if she was a stripper, who cares? She is clearly a good mother and a good wife. She doesn’t seem like she is letting anyone else but her husband have her cookies. Teresa, who I hate, needs to get over herself already. Prostitution whore!
So Joe Gorga’s real name is Captain Save-a-ho? I knew he was a superhero!
Terresa and Joe stealing money ,work and materials from people.That trusted them and performed work on there shit box house, is way worse then a young Mellissa stripping bartending or what the hell she did.Nothing lower then a greedy pair of thieves, Who lie and cheat there way through life.I hope all the contracters who worked on that house get there money.They are the hard working people who have to put on the table and a lot of construction comes right out there pockets till they get paid.Teresa a midget husband need to be in jail
So they were strippers. Big deal. Who cares? Stripping is a noble profession, far more so than being a Real Housewife of Andy Cohen’s Mad, Mad, Mad World.
@someguy, you know I love you and your passion! (and can’t wait for the new RW recap, see you there) I agree, the real issue should be focused on Tre and Juicy’s crimes instead of setting up Melissa for a potential stripper scandal. I agree with @Jason also, who cares? Bravo and it’s harem of (fame) whores is much worse (IMHO) than bartending/waitressing at a strip club. Also, nice Donnie Darko reference, if that’s what it was.
On WWHL last night Mamma Manzo was on, clearly to stifle all the incoming inquiries about the leaked drama over the past few days. She handled it well although, you can certainly pick up on the tension on that cast. Can’t wait for the finale and the reunion!
I agree with Jason too. There’s about 17000 things for me to make fun of and criticize and judge about all of them specially Melissa. And that’s just their fashion choices.
Somebody being a stripper isn’t even interesting. The 1st thing I thought was oh so she did have a job one time.
