Did Michaele Salahi Lie About Being an NFL Cheerleader?


People.com:
Gimme an F-A-K-E! What does that spell? Perhaps Michaele Salahi can answer.

The Real Housewives of D.C. star is under fire – again – this time for allegedly lying about her past as a Washington Redskins cheerleader.

In Thursday's episode of the Bravo reality show, Salahi joins the "first ladies of football" to rehearse ahead of an alumni performance. But her inability to perform a routine – and the fact that no one seemed to remember her – raised eyebrows.

According to a Washington Post report published in December after the episode taped, several former cheerleaders tried to learn more about Salahi's experience with the team.

"She was never at an audition, never at a game and never performed," former cheerleader and choreographer Sheryl Olecheck told the paper. "When I saw her, I had to ask around: 'Who is that?' "

  1. Diane Dimond devotes pages 152-159 to proving the cheerleader claim was a baldfaced lie, including the new version of the story Michaele is telling now.

    Michaele claims she was a Redskinette from 1987-88 during possibly the most famous year of the team, when Joe Gibbs took them to a Superbowl victory.
