Kim Granatell, who plays a pivotal if unpaid role on “Real Housewives of New Jersey” this season and aspires to full-time status next year, lives in a 13,000-square-foot (yes, we asked) home just a few mansions away from Jacqueline Laurita, one of the titular housewives. She offers a tour (yes, we accepted) before settling in to dish about the season. Granatell shows off an enormous mural of Capri over the twin staircases in the double-height entryway, a newly redecorated dining room with a vast table and inlaid stone floors, a sprawling kitchen, five bedrooms (or perhaps more — we lost count), private patios, the Bentley and the Ferrari in the garage and a mud room the size of a hotel lobby (and almost as richly appointed). And it’s all paid for, Granatell says, a not-so-subtle dig at fellow housewife Teresa Giudice’s financial straits.
Not bad for a girl who grew up in the distinctly working-class town of Haverstraw, in Rockland County, N.Y. She married well — her husband, from whom she has been amiably separated for years, runs a chemical manufacturing firm, and they have three children, a daughter in high school and two sons in college.
A beautiful home, a lovely family, at least a modicum of mental health: What would propel Granatell to throw in her chips with made-for-TV personalities like former stripper Danielle Staub and the table-flippin’ Giudice?
“It’s not like I’m bored,” she says defensively. “It’s fun.”
Granted the two Kim's (who knew they were sister-in-laws?) provide for plenty of drama on RHONJ, but I think Bravo's best to leave them where they are--as co-stars as opposed to stars.

ReplyDeleteThese women perpetuate the perception everyone has of New Jersey. I feel sorry for the normal people who live there, if there are any. Nothing is worse than white trash with money. Talk about poor breeding! These women are the most ridiculous cunts I've ever seen, and they are all exactly alike. This show should be a commercial to promote abortion. Fake, ugly cunts.
ReplyDeleteBig hair, ugly, fake bitches. Poor Theresa looks like some sort of alien. Her eyes look like they're on the sides of her head. Danielle looks like an AIDS victim with her sunken cheeks. The Kims seem like hangers-on, desperate for attention. One pretends not to flaunt her money, and the other one must be trying to get her business up off the ground. How sad to surround yourself around cunts like this in a desperate attempt for publicity. Table flipping, wanna be Soprano, Jersey snatches who want the world to think they have money, as if that were important. Bravo should be ashamed. Cunts, cunts, cunts. Ugly fake lying bitches. Just kill each other already.
ReplyDeleteUGLY BITCHES, INSIDE AND OUT. Morally bankrupt. I'd like to see them be assaulted for real. None of this pathetic hair pulling and name calling like junior high girls. These cunts all deserve what they get. Where are their husbands? They must be pussies. Too fat to do any real damage. They remind me of jocks in high school that never made it much further than that. Their wives try to fight like they think they are men. The men come from families that raise them to be stereotypical misogynous pigs, but then they do nothing to control their women. Sad. They might be decent guys, but they married cunts so they could still get laid after they got fat. The state should take all of their children away from them. None of these people are adult enough to raise children properly. Those kids will be traumatized just by having these godawful people as relatives. Pathetic. I can't say enough awful things about them. I can't even take sides, because they're ALL ridiculous. Danielle, Kim G, Kim D, Teresa, Jacqueline, it's all ridiculous. I feel bad for Caroline - I used to hate her because she seemed like a wanna be Soprano, but watching further she actually seems like a decent person and a proper matriarch. So props to her. It's too bad that she's caught up in all this ridiculous bullshit. Now her name will be forever associated with the trashy women she's related to. And Danielle - who's not a relative but may as well be singe her name is always the first thing they have to talk about. Do they have no lives? Apparently not. You've gotta love how Danielle brings her ex con friends around to start more shit. More assholes who don't know how to act in public. Punk ass bitches. I hope Danny got raped in prison. I wish the worst for all of these cunts and assholes, and I don't like to put even more negativity out in the world. I hope they get all that is coming to them. Jails, institutions, and death. May these cunts get raped. I hope their children hate them.
ReplyDeleteThe previous posts were not by me. I am at a loss as to why anyone would use the c word as many times as this person just did.
ReplyDeleteReally? You seem to know an awful lot about people whom you semm to hate. Why areyou so distraught? Be better to turn the tv off than to be upset.

ReplyDeleteSomeone needs to enroll in anger management classes.
ReplyDeleteKim G is just a media whore. She tried to act in many roles especially on Swedish TV eg "Jul i verdensrummet". But she just never makes it to Hollywood! she is an opportunist and this is her chance to become exposed and get film roles! I thought that this show was all about finding REAL HOUSEWIVES not WANNABES! here is my proof and her entire rap sheet

As a proud NJ male who enjoys all the NJH Reality TV shows, I also wonder if america thinks NJ is just a huge Hole full of crazy ou tof touch Italian maia wannabee's. That being said I do luv the shows, I actually laugh out loud and often figh toff the douche chills. I would bet that the average IQ of our NJ ladies is around 90-95, not a smart one in the bunch yet all seem to have $$....& that Albie? man he will become of Lawyer after my pet pig takes fight
ReplyDeleteOh Please - Kim G is so depressing. She is the poster child of an old girl who can't get the guys anymore because they are looking at the young girls. Kim G wears clothes designed for the young girls and she just looks OLD. Poor old Kim G - doing anything for attention and trying to get in with the Manzo clan by trash talking about Danielle Staub. For a 'wealthy' Franklin Lakes gal who states that others should go to finishing school, she has a filthy mouth. Maybe she needs to spend some cash on psychotherapy, or at least get her turkey neck fixed. Hey Kim - go away.
ReplyDeleteI hear from my buddy that Kim has been going around saying that she already got the gig as the fifth housewife. Ooops...FOURTH, since Danielle got fired.
ReplyDeleteThe perfect setting for this overaged wanna be would be on the cable show
ReplyDeleteSunset Daze filmed in a retirement community in Arizona. She is not on the scale of the Housewives women and never will be. She is more transparent than Saran Wrap.
This woman look like she's 75-80 years old and she's so obviously jealous of the much more attractive/interesting Teresa, Jac, Caroline, Danielle...I can't stand having to watch her on the show. It's a waste and I'd rather be watching the others! I hope that they don't give her more air time next season. She's frightening looking and has nothing going on and she's not 1/16th as interesting to watch as any of the other ladies. I have zero respect for this woman and can't stand to look at that (horribly botched) plastic face of hers. To have her money and act the way she does? She's white trash to the furthest degree.
ReplyDeletewow.... u people are sooo mean...i dont find anything wrong with kim g...yea maybe a little two faced but hey, we all are from time to time..and how would you all feel if people posted such negative blogs about u...turkey necks plastic face and cunts...so vulgar...its ok to be nice once in a while...didnt your mothers ever tell you if you have nothing nice to say than say nothing at all....uhhh yea,lets think about that....
ReplyDeleteto the above poster... no one asked you to preach to us... if you don't find anything wrong with kim g then i think there is something wrong with you as well... all of the housewives has really nothing better to do then show their ugliness to the world...

ReplyDeleteKim G is NOT as rich as she wants you to think she is. She actually is not the richest on the show and that is hilarious because all she does is twitter how much money she has and how she is better then teresa after teresa dissed her at the reunion. She is a fake and a fraud and she may have a nice house because of her husband but she isnt that rich. She is a old, old hag who thinks she can do whatever she wants.. ha ha bitch you cant even get on this lame show.
ReplyDeleteKim..please stop using profanity..You are a very attractive gal...However your use of profanity reduces your attractiveness..When you are first viewed on camera we see this lovely lady..beautiful face and figure all dressed perfectly..Then the vulgar words start..Kim, as a women of such stature of wealth you can use a plethora of words that
ReplyDeletecan express your disdain of others without
using a swear word..Study some of the old time movies..Those women cut each other up with sharp tongue's without ever using profanity. They were timeless and classic and you can be as well..Good Luck !!
Yes Kim..study Joan Collins in Dynasty..
ReplyDeleteHey....you guys are so mean to an elderly woman. All older women get turkey necks so you don't have to point it out. And so what if the house and cars etc are from her husband. Where do you think the other women got their stuff? Yes, she is tough and swears like a drunken sailor and is two faced but you keep watching her so what's up with that? Its kind of fun to watch her so desperate to be seen by the camera and trying so hard to be accepted by those other bitches. And best of all when they tell her off and reject her. You know you were waiting for that part all along !!
ReplyDeleteI'm amazed at the langauge 99% of you use on this site! I wonder if you'd kiss your mom with those dirty mouths! Nevertheless, from what I've seen, all of you act like a bunch of little kids. FOUL MOUTHED KIDS! You should be ashamed of yourselves......although most of you aren't. I'm sure of that! I'm happy to say that I live in Franklin Lakes. Not all of us go around and brag about what we've got. Some of us are good people, givers, and we give of ourselves to other who are in need. Having money is a gift. Bragging about it is a sin!
ReplyDeleteWow! Someone with a potty mouth and insomnia that
ReplyDeleteseems to be having a problem know exactly how to turn
the chanel.
I agree, take some anger management classes and
deal with it.
I'm ashamed to watch all of them. Danielle obviously has a rather distinguished past, to put it mildly. But the way they all mercilessly picked on her, made me lose sympathy with them pretty much. I could never understand, butter wouldn't melt in my mouth Dina. She actually kept seeking her out to tell her to go away! Nuts, all of them just nuts. And I don't know why Danielle ever bothered with any of them. I sussed the two Kim's out straight away. Just happy to be at the centre of trouble and loving all the gossip. I used to thing the Real Housewives of Orange County were mad, but they all seem really well-adjusted and nice compared to the Jersey Girls. Shame on them all.
ReplyDeleteThis 65 year old is a PIG. My folks taught me to always respect your elders but this old bag of bones is INSANE. She is NOT a good fit for the show. She has proven it time and again. She needs to worry about sucking Michael Lohan's whowhodilly so HE wont sue her for some outrageous reason. She is two faced. She is NOT real. She says what she thinks people want to hear. She is so gross.
ReplyDeleteAll of these cunts and the asshole Andy Cohen need to hang themselves.
