Kim Granatell Blasts Teresa Giudice After Prison Sentencing


USmagazine.com:
Jeez! Teresa Giudice's frenemy on The Real Housewives of New Jersey, Kim Granatell, better known as Kim G., blasted the reality star on Thursday, Oct. 2, after she was sentenced to 15 months in prison.

"Look who is the PATHETIC ONE NOW!!! REMEMBER???? @celebritymagnet @Adam_Barta #RHONJ #guidice #guidicesentencing #TeresaGiudice," Granatell started out her hate-filled series of tweets. "ORANGE is the new BLACK.... And I don't mean HERMES!!! @celebritymagnet @Adam_Barta #RHONJ #guidicesentencing #TeresaGiudice," she wrote, before adding, "HOPE YOU ARE READY FOR LOCK-UP: RAW MARICOPA COUNTY! #RHONJ #JoeGiudice #guidicesentencing @Adam_Barta @celebritymagnet @TheJackBarbosa."
Teresa, who has feuded on the Bravo reality show with the blonde who makes occasional appearances, was sentenced to 15 months in prison following her and husband Joe Giudice's fraud charges. Hours before the mom of four was sentenced, Joe was sentenced to 41 months with a restitution payment of $414,588. The couple pleaded guilty this past March on several counts of bank and mail fraud. In July, they were indicted on a total of 41 counts.

As previously reported, the reality star and cookbook author broke down in court, telling the room: "I’m so scared. I’m blessed, but today I am also humbled. I fully take responsibility for my actions. This is not how I was raised. I am more sorry than anyone will ever know … My daughters are my life. I don't care about the TV show, or materialistic things. My daughters are all that I care about, and I feel so bad that my 13-year-old has any idea what is going on with all of this. I am more sorry than anyone will know. The silver lining is that I can learn and show my daughters. I know everything happens for a reason, and I hope I can find that reason."

Teresa will serve before her husband, surrendering on Jan. 5, 2015, after being allowed to spend the holidays with her family. 
Listen, Kim Granetell has long proven that she'll say or do just about anything to keep her name relevant. That being said, honestly as long as you lay off the kids I don't think there's anything wrong with mocking or making fun of Teresa and Joe Giudice's plight. Again, they both plead guilty to some SERIOUS crimes and thanks solely to the judge not only did they both get off light, but at least one parent will be home for the girls while the other serves time in prison. And lastly, I think it's fair to say that if Teresa and Joe loved their kids THAT much, they wouldn't have put them in this huge predicament in the first place. So pray for the welfare of Gia, Gabriella, Milania and Audriana, they're the only real innocents in all of this.

Danielle Staub Pays Fine Over Bankruptcy Fraud


TMZ.com:
While Teresa Giudice faces time behind bars for alleged bankruptcy fraud ... another 'Real Housewife' is making sure she doesn't suffer a similar fate ... by coughing up $35,000.

"Real Housewives of New Jersey" star Danielle Staub filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy back in June 2012, claiming she was knee deep in debt ... approx. $500,000 to $1,000,000.

As part of the bankruptcy process Danielle had to disclose all her assets ... that way when creditors came to clean her out they'd know how much loot is available.

FYI -- this is the part where some people get in trouble because they try to hide cash and valuables ... hoping Uncle Sam and creditors won't notice.

According to legal docs, filed last month, Danielle was accused of doing just that. Rather than keep up the charade, DS agreed to fork over $35k to her creditors to help settle her debts ... and avoid any nasty consequences.

If she didn't settle ... Danielle might be in a similar boat to co-stars Teresa and Joe Giudice -- who are being federally indicted on 39 counts of fraud (including hiding assets during bankruptcy). They face 30 years in prison.

Good choice, Danielle.

Kim Granatell Speaks Out On Teresa Giudice's Indictment, Warns Teresa To 'Stock Up On Toilet Paper'


Somebody is making no secret about enjoying the Giudice's latest scandal:
Teresa Giudice‘s indictment for a whopping 39 charges of financial fraud was no surprise to ex co-star Kim Granatell, who exclusively told RadarOnline.com that she knew from the day she met Teresa that “she was a fraud.”

The Real Housewives of New Jersey star and her husband Juicy Joe appeared in a federal court on Tuesday morning to face the charges of tax evasion and fraud and were released on $500,000 bond each.

Kim G, who gained fame for her sparring with the ladies on the show in seasons two and three , was gloating over Teresa’s legal woes, and offered her up some advice if she ends up behind bars.

“Make sure you stock up on toilet paper because in prison you only get one roll a week,” Kim warned Teresa via Celebrity Magnet Tom Murro.

Kim scolded the Giudice’s for their alleged crimes.

“Teresa and Joe are getting what they deserve if you have 39 count against you obviously knew you were breaking the law.”

Kim G, who loves to flaunt her own wealth, slammed the reality show stars.

“I guess their scamming days are over now Teresa has to lead a real life.”

Kim says that she has been waiting for this day to come for a long time for her Franklin Lakes neighbor.

“I knew from the day I met her that she was a fraud…living in that horrendous broken down house by the highway, near swamp land in high tension wires with a bad addition.”

Kim also laughed when talking about Teresa’s culinary empire.

“I knew that she had cookbooks, but I didn’t know she was actually cooking the books!

Look for Teresa’s new cookbook from cell block 8 called ‘Hidden Recipes.’”

Kim G said she plans to attend the trial if it happens.

“I’m picking out my outfit for Teresa’s court date will be wearing my diamonds and Birkin bag as I drive my Bentley there that no one will ever take from me.

“Every dog has their day and today is Teresa woof…woof.”

Teresa Giudice's Daughter Milania Bullied Online


Examiner.com:
“The Real Housewives of New Jersey” star Teresa Giudice may be proud of her daughters, but a recent Facebook picture of her daughter Milania showed that fans are less than pleased with her daughters and Facebook members decided to bully her online. On Aug. 4, a report was released by Gather that explains just how people bullied Milania on the social media network. The worst part is that many of the comments were written by adults, essentially attacking a young child.

The picture sparked conversation because a fan of the show posted a picture of Milania on Bravo’s official Facebook page and asked fans if they missed Milania on the previous episode, as the cast went to Napa Valley without the children. While the person who posted the picture probably had hoped to spark some positive conversation, people were less than pleased to be reminded of “The Real Housewives of New Jersey” star Teresa Giudice’s children. Some of the comments included “troll,” “brat,” and “b*tch.” One person even went as far as to say that they wanted to “whip the sh*t” out of Milania.

Kim Granatell Is Nothing But A Troublemaker, Yet Melissa Gorga Does Right By Teresa



When it comes to wanting to be 'Housewife', it's no secret how desperate Kim Granatell is as far as wanting to be on the show full-time (even she's admitted it several times). And while Bravo execs have done good by saying no to her, it's still kind of sad to watch how low a 56yo woman will go to get attention. I mean, bringing by a woman/lawyer that she knew Teresa just had a fight with to a party at her brother's house was just beyond the pale. Props to Melissa and Joe Gorga for kicking the woman out of the house. After Teresa practically ordered her to remove the lawyer chick from the premises, Melissa could've easily made it about herself and said no, but instead she took the high road and ended up doing the right thing because the woman just had no business being there. And it's just disgusting watching Kim Granatell, a classless woman in serious denial about her wicked ways, keep this act up. Good thing it looks like next week Chris Manzo steps up and gives the evil witch what's been long coming to her.

Other Notes: - Kathy stop sucking up to Teresa, you're clearly no match for her in person and going to another room to curse her out was just lame.

- Ok, enough with "Poor Ashley With The Two Families". Does anybody not named Jacqueline notice how this spoiled 20yo brat continues to use her parents divorce as an excuse to get own way? Then too, i've never seen a better actress when it comes to crocodile tears. Enough already.

- And yes Teresa Giudice saying that she can "identify" with Angelina Jolie, as far as the amount of attention she gets, has to prove once and for all that as her lil brother Joe said on WWHL...since she started on RHONJ she's "changed".

Kim Granatell Wants To Become Real Beauty Queen


Yeah, right:
The Real Housewives of New Jersey star Kim Granatell is set to compete in the 2011 Mrs. New Jersey United States pageant, her friend Tom Murro tells RadarOnline.com exclusively.


The 45-year-old reality star and Murro were both on tap to be judges for the upcoming pageant but were bounced after they were photographed at an event with some of the contestants. "We were told it would be a conflict of interest to have us as judges," Murro tells us.


Wanting to still have Kim involved, the organizers then gave permission for her to enter as a contestant, Murro says. He was then hired to emcee for the event.


Kim is taking the beauty pageant seriously, Murro says. "She has been working on her catwalk and getting tan in preparation for the event," Murro says.


No one from the Mrs. New Jersey organization responded to RadarOnline.com's request for comment on their decision.


The competition takes place May 21 with the winner going on to the Mrs. America pageant.

Kim Granetell Blasts Other 'Housewives' For Not Paying Their Salon Bills


Hollywoodlife.com:

The petite blonde is sounding off about how the other girls are trying to get services for free and ending up with ‘bad hair’ as a result!

Another day, another story about the rapidly deteriorating financial lives of The Real Housewives of New Jersey! Page Six reports today that Kim Granatelle was overheard at the Oscar Blandi salon saying some of the other Housewives don’t feel they have to pay for services, resulting in, “bad hair, overdone Botox and square breasts.” While she did not go on to name names, viewers of the show will likely have no problem guessing who one of those women may be.

For her part, Kim apparently pays the full $550 coloring fee when she stops by the salon and tips largely according to the report.

Teresa Giudice’s Possessions To Be Bought By Kim Granatell


Hollywoodnews.com:
As ‘Real Housewives of New Jersey’ star Teresa Giudice faces the reality that her possessions may all be sold at an auction, another housewife is preparing to purchase as many of them as possible.


Kim Granatell, or Kim G., has revealed that she plans to head to the sale and “buy everything and resell it on eBay,” reports RadarOnline.com. She won’t be doing this just to make some money, but she plans to give the profit to the Emmanuel Cancer charity.


The auction was originally slated to take place on August 22nd, but now has been pushed back to October 3rd. Kim G. was originally introduced on the reality TV as a friend of Danielle Staub.
Starting to wonder if Bravo execs should be flattered or sickened at how desperate this woman is to be on one of their shows.

Danielle eventually walked the red carpet, saying “I wish nothing but the best for my fellow housewives,” when asked about Kim G’s attempt to crash her birthday party.

The night ended being pretty eventful, complete with a performance by Danielle and her girlfriend Lori Michaels of their new single “Real Close.” Let’s just say Danielle had backup dancers, and showed fans that she’s still got a few moves left from her stripper days!

Kim Granetell Calls Danielle Staub's Lesbian Relationship A "Publicity Stunt"


Controversial Real Housewives of New Jersey wannabe, Kim G., is stirring the pot once again - this time calling out her one-time BFF Danielle Staub on her rumored lesbian relationship, RadarOnline.com exclusively reveals.

“My take is that it’s a whole publicity stunt,” Kim told RadarOnline.com in an exclusive interview, and she’s not alone in her opinion. “Friends of mine and people I talk to think it’s all for publicity.”

Danielle revealed her rumored new relationship with “girlfriend” Lori Michaels when she debuted her first single Real Close on Bravo’s Watch What Happens Live in June. The Housewife that everyone loves to hate hasn’t confirmed that they are a couple, but quickly took to her Twitter and wrote “bless my gf Lori Michaels.”

Despite Danielle’s ‘Look at me’ lesbian move, she’s never hit on former gal pal, Kim.
“A couple of people have asked me in the past, ‘Has she come on to you yet?’ but no, she hasn’t,” she revealed.
Listen, we all know Kim G's vying hard for Dina's spot on RHONJ but really now, is there a straight man on the planet who isn't relieved by Danielle switching teams? Let it go already.

Kim Granatell Admits To Wanting Fulltime Role On 'Real Housewives of New Jersey'


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.
