RHONJ’s Melissa Gorga Involved In An Argument At A Christmas Party; Sherri Shepherd Calls Her Out On Twitter!


There’s never a dull moment in Real Housewives of New Jersey land! I’m sure most of you heard of the Twittercation involving The View co-host Sherri Shepherd, Teresa Giudice and Melissa Gorga over the weekend.

It seems that Sherri and her husband were attending a party in New Jersey and who should show up but Melissa, hauling with her a buncha drama. Le sigh. And if you are wondering what kind of people get into an argument at a Christmas party, look no further than the hot-tempered ladies of RHONJ!

Sherri, rightfully annoyed that a peaceful evening was ruined by squabbling twelve-year-olds women, took to Twitter to complain about the nonsense. “Why am I at a party in Jersey with Sal & one of the New Jersey Housewives gets into an altercation w someone! This is surreal & a #hotmess,” Sherri admonished, via Twitter. Sherri initially believed Teresa was the hot mess in question, but Teresa immediately set her straight, Tweeting: “And no I was NOT at the Jersey party w/ @SherriEShepherd yest. I was in NYC w/my kids. She’s got her hot mess NJHousewives mixed up! ;) xx”

After realizing her error Sherri, tweeted her sorries. “Apology to @Teresa_Giudice … thought you were at the party. I swear you got a doppleganger [sic]! Just as well – the drama didn’t involve you!” Teresa sort of does have a doppelganger (assuming she knows what that is): her sister in law Melissa — who as it turns out was the hot mess in question! Oh dear.

It seems Melissa attended the get together with Kathy Wakile and some bickering occurred in the bathroom — wait didn’t this already happen at the Posche Fashion Show? Melissa instantly went on the defense over Sherri’s “hot mess” accusation and replied, “”No honey! Someone tried 2 pull a publicity stunt last night 2try & cause drama, I was upset they did that!” Melissa claims she was jut an innocent bystander victimized by fame seeking harlots. uh huh. Again, haven’t we heard this story before (ahem… Posche Fashion Show)?

Speaking to the Huffington Post, Melissa explains her side of the story and insists it was all nonsense stirred up by a random party guest looking for a spot on RHONJ. “Someone tried to cause a fake fight to get attention because they are trying to be on the new ‘Housewives.’ ”

“Someone pretended that they overheard me and Kathy talking about a girl in the bathroom that is trying to get on the next season,” Melissa recounts. “I knew it was B.S. because we didn’t talk about anyone in the bathroom. So I called them out on it right away.”

“The girl admitted it the next day,” Melissa added. “It was so stupid they were just trying to get attention.” Richie Wakile summed up the incident as, “Fake ass people out there! & you know who you are bitches!”

No word on who the “girl” is, but I’m guessing there is a lot more to this story than meets the eye — particularly with all the rumors swirling about Melissa as of late!

If you’re wondering if Melissa is tired of living “On Display” the answer is of course not! A fan tweeted her asking just that and she replied: “It comes with territory what I don’t like is the lying, everyone has an opinion I can’t get mad at that! Xo” Will the insanity never cease?

In other RHONJ news, Jacqueline Laurita is up to her Twitter antics again and this time she is admitting something we all suspected! Apparently her friendship with Melissa is not exactly what it’s portrayed to be! After giving Melissa a shout-out for producing payroll sheets to prove she was never a dancer, a fan asked Jacs about the nature of her relationship with her ex-bestfriend’s sister-in-law. Jacqueline Tweetplied: “Got friendly w/Mel bc I respect her as Ts fam.I like her.Shes always been nice2me.We dont talk&hangout like bffs.C her here&there”

My interpretation: Jacqueline got angry at Teresa and started buddy-ing up with Melissa to make Teresa angry.

    That’ probably why her and Juicy look happy in their photo’s RT posted the other day. Good for them! Tre did put on a little weight but look’s good. Another thing.. I noticed Jac has been tweeting alot about Gluten Free eating.. Maybe that was the idea she said Tre stole from her?? Tre’s 3rd book is Gluten Free meals.

  3. YES, I believe Melissa.

  4. #47 – Sherri is the dumbest woman on TV. I remember her first season on “The View.” She stated the most absurd shit on the regular. I’m curious why they chose to just give her the answers to pre-scheduled topics rather than getting someone intelligent on the panel (a la, Lisa Ling). I miss Meredith Viera. Whoopi must go as moderator. Between her random farts, I can’t stand her know-it-all persona. She clearly doesn’t know what the topics are prior to coming out on the stage. She reads the telepromptor and just wings it everyday. She’s soooooo annoying on that show! She’s extremely talented in movies and on broadway, but on that panel. . .HELL TO THE NAH!! She’s not even a funny stand up comedian. If they want someone black, smart, and funny on The View, they should recruit Aisha Tyler from “The Talk.”

    Melissa is and will continue to be nothing more, nothing less, than a woman hell bent on eradicating her sister in law. Not gonna happen, we’ve seen through her manipulative ways a LONG time ago. Just pitiful(and I don’t just mean her singing career, please…).

  6. Melissa is running from her past because she was not only a stripper, she was a prostitute, that is why she is threatning to sue people. she does not want anyone to know that she was a prostitue, she turned tricks for money….i use to go to the same salon that melissa gorga went to. she used teresa hair dresser and constantly talked smack about teresa, when melissa would leave . everyone there thought she was stalker crazy and nuts. i mean she is a nut job. she is very obsessive of her sister in law. dont befriend this crazy…she is a stalker and psycho
