'Real Housewives of NJ' Bus Tour -- Total Sellouts

TMZ.com:

Busloads of "Real Housewives" fans are abandoning the safety of their living rooms for a quick thrill ride in NJ -- TMZ has learned, there's a brand new tour of all the show's hot spots ... and it's selling out like crazy.

The 7-hour trip costs $95 ... and we're told, it includes a drive-by tour of all the housewives' houses, plus a bunch of other show-related stops -- like lunch at The Brownstone catering hall (owned by Caroline and Dina's hubbies), and a shopping trip to Kim DePaola's boutique.

And nip/tuck this -- according to the event company behind the tour, it even includes a glimpse into the housewives' plastic surgeon's office.

A one-time tour was originally scheduled for next Friday -- but in order to accommodate an unexpected surge in demand, it was rescheduled for an upcoming weekend ... and 2-4 additional dates are in the works.

RadarOnline.com:

Jill Zarin flew into New York City after a whirlwind trip to Australia and wasted no time hooking up with some of her The Real Housewives of New York castmates to dish about what has been going on.


RadarOnline.com has all the photos and details of what the feisty red head has been up to since her return to the Big Apple.


"There were tons of camera men and photographers snapping Jill as she ran towards Ginger (her pocket pooch) who someone brought to the airport to greet her,” says a source about the scene of her arrival at JFK Airport.


“She was really nice and signed autographs and talked with fans."


"I had a lovely time with my husband in Australia but very happy to be back home. I really missed Ally, Ginger and New York City," Jill told RadarOnline.com.


Zarin was spotted with a camera crew in tow at an upper east side restaurant Thursday reuniting with Kelly Bensimon and Countess Luann.


"The ladies looked gorgeous," said a source at the restaurant. “It didn't seem like they were fighting at all."

Good for Jill to take off from shopping and vacations to mingle with the regular folks.

Taylor Armstrong's Husband Files For Bankruptcy

TMZ.com:

"Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" cast member Taylor Armstrong has a husband who has a lot in common with a big celebrity ... sadly, it's Toni Braxton.


Russell Armstrong filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy back in October of '05, this according to docs filed in U.S. Bankruptcy Court and obtained by TMZ. The problem was simple ... Armstrong, an investor, said he had less than $50,000 in assets and debt somewhere between 1 and 10 million bucks.


Russell, who has been married to Taylor for seven years, says in the docs he made a boatload during the 1990's "dot.com boom" but took a huge financial hit when everything crashed. And it went from bad to worse after 9/11, with an IRS dispute and a "costly" palimony lawsuit filed by a former fianceé.


Looks like Taylor took the "for richer or poorer" part seriously.


A rep could not be reached for comment.

Kroy Biermann To Pop The Question To Kim Zolciak

RadarOnline.com:

Kim Zolciak’s toyboy lover NFL star Kroy Biermann is planning to propose to the reality TV star

, and it could happen on the current series of Real Housewives Of Atlanta, RadarOnline.com has exclusively learned.

The relationship between Kim, 32, and Kroy, 25, has been growing stronger in the last several months, and the Atlanta Falcons defensive end wants to make an honest woman out of the controversial wig-wearing blonde.

And now that her long term on/off boyfriend ‘Big Poppa’ (Lee Najjar) is no longer in her life, Zolciak, a mom-of-two, is seriously considering settling down with the Montana-born football player.

A source told RadarOnline.com, “It looks like Kroy is preparing to ask Kim to marry him, and their have been secret discussions to include his proposal on the show.

“They really like one another and in the new series viewers will not see ‘Big Poppa’ involved, so, it leaves room for Kroy to appear as Kim’s love interest.

“Despite what a lot of people might think they both have strong feelings for one another, and Kim likes the fact that he is great with her daughters while is comfortable enough to let her take center stage too.

“It is still not known if this will be her last season on the show but if he was to propose within the coming weeks it’s more than likely she would say yes to him.”

Damn, guess this dude never watched an episode of RHOA. Either that or Kim's totally gotten him brainwashed.

Jeana Keough's Estranged Husband Gets A Year In Jail

OCRegister.com:

Matt Keough, estranged husband of "Real Housewife of Orange County" Jeana Keough, was sentenced Thursday to a year in jail and three years probation for drunk driving in Coto de Caza.


The former Major League Baseball pitcher pleaded guilty in July to felony driving under the influence of alcohol and felony driving with a blood-alcohol level exceeding .08. At that time, he was sent to Chino State Prison for a 90-day diagnostic program to see if he was eligible for probation.


The incident — his second DUI — happened on Aug. 15, 2009. Keough was returning to his Coto de Caza home with beer when sheriff's deputies saw him make a "rolling stop" at a stop sign. According to O.C. Sheriff's spokesman Jim Armomino and a report on Wikipedia.org, the deputies tried to pull him over, but Keough drove home and ran inside. Deputies followed him inside and arrested him. His blood-alcohol content was .30 — neary four times the legal limit of .08.


At his court appearance Thursday, Jeana Keough asked the judge to give her husband, whom she's divorcing, probation. She said he would have a strong support network, including two sons, Shane and Colton, who reside at home.


"I don't think taxpayers need to pay any more for him," she said. "He doesnt need to be in the prison system for any longer."

Bethenny Frankel Says, 'I Do Not Want To Do Any Housewife Episodes' This Season

Hollywoodlife.com:

Bethenny has completely forgotten all about the show — The Real Housewives of New York City — that made her who she is today. ‘That is so 2009,’ Bethenny claims!

Uh oh! Bethenny Frankel is totally over The Real Housewives of New York City! Now that she has her own reality show, Bethenny Getting Married?, the reality star told HollywoodLife.com exclusively on Oct. 12 at the launch party for Sony’s First Internet Television in New York City, “I do not want to do any housewife episodes [this season]. Let’s just leave it at that.”


And it looks like Bethenny still isn’t missing her ex-best friend and RHONY co-star Jill Zarin. “I’m not friends with Jill and we don’t speak to each other,” she said. “I’m so happy right now in my life that I could never ever wish anyone any ill will anyway. That is so 2009 — the show and the argument!”

Yunno, sometimes I wonder if Bethenny's ever heard of the phrase "no comment". I bought into and respected the whole 'it's a family decision' excuse she made earlier about not wanting to return to RHONYC, but now she's really acting conceited, much less forgetting about what made her famous in the first place. When 'Housewives' get it in their head that they're bigger than the show they're only asking for trouble. Listen, I'm happy for Bethenney having a new hubby and baby and she's still my favorite 'Housewife" of alltime, but if she's frustrated about being contractually obligated to still appear on RHONYC than she oughta be upfront about it and say so, set some limits about filming with any members of Team Jill, be a trooper and just do it already. We know Bethenny can and will survive on her own, but no need to take digs at the show that made you famous. Speaking of which, here's another phrase Bethenny oughta try and remember: "Be nice to people on your way up because you meet them on your way down".
