• Teresa Giudice's Friends Abandon Her Behind Bars as 'RHONJ' Inches Closer to Being Shelved

    After years of playing people against each other, it looks like Teresa Giudice is the one left in the dust. "The Real Housewives of New Jersey" star has famously manipulated Melissa Gorga, Jacqueline Laurita, Kathy Wakile and basically every other friend or family member whom she has crossed paths with, and now it is Giudice who is alone. After turning herself in to the prison camp in Danbury, Connecticut, that will be her home for the next 13 months, the reality star realized that even before she left no one was reaching out to her.According to a report by Radar Online, in the past these women would have been there for Giudice, in spite of how vicious she has been toward them, but now things are different. They realize that it is time to back away and save themselves from the toxic and even criminal behavior she has brought into their lives.While Giudice is away, it seems Bravo producers are inching closer to shelving "RHONJ," at least until she is released from prison. Like it or not, Giudice has always been the centerpiece of the show, and without her it is just unlikely that enough people are going to tune in to get the ratings to where they would need to be. Needless to say, the rest of the cast wants to believe that they are more than enough to keep the show going. The fact that they might need a shady, admitted criminal to keep them relevant and on television is no doubt a shot to their egos, but it does seem to be the bottom line.

  • 'RHOA' Phaedra Parks Couldn't Wait for Creepy Apollo Nida to Be Behind Bars

    The season of "The Real Housewives of Atlanta" that is currently airing was filmed late in the summer, shortly before Phaedra Parks's husband, Apollo Nida, was scheduled to surrender to police to begin serving an eight-year prison sentence. It seems like every time he pops up on camera he is spewing hate for his wife's lack of support, and it is clear that he is, at best, a wild card who seems to follow her everywhere. The level of stress on Parks for having to contend with Nida is palpable.It is really no surprise that rather than being upset by the fact that the father of her two kids was heading off to prison, there came a point when any upset turned into relief. In a conversation with her mother on last night's episode of "RHOA," Parks admitted she was anxious for Nida to report to jail in Kentucky."I won't have to be worried about all his nonsense, wondering what's going on with him, has he wrecked something, has he got in trouble somewhere?" said Parks.

  • Sydney Gunman Man Haron Monis Was Well-Known by Police But Not on Any Terror Watch List

    Just one day after a hostage situation at a Lindt Chocolate Cafe in Sydney, Australia's financial district ended with three dead after law enforcement stormed in, the country is left to ponder how something so sinister could have even played out there. We now know that Man Haron Monis was the 50-year-old gunman who fancied himself a sheikh with a personal agenda, but what is not clear is how he was free in the first place.Monis had a long history of brushes with the law and he was charged with everything from sexual assault to sending hate mail to the families of fallen Australian solders who died in Afghanistan. Perhaps the most horrific thing he had been charged with before yesterday was being an accessory to his former wife's murder.Apparently, Monis's latest girlfriend stabbed his ex and then set her on fire and he was actually out on bail for his part in the crime when he decided to take 17 hostages yesterday morning and demand that a flag of ISIS be brought to him.Sydney locals's shock morphed into anger when they realized that not only did their own law enforcement seem to drop the ball with Monis, but even with his outward love of Muslim extremist behavior he actually was not on any kind of terror watch list. This fact has left Prime Minister Tony Abbott deeply disturbed.

  • 'RHONJ' Teresa Giudice Funds Another Music Video for Her Daughter's Group 3KT in Spite of Being Broke

    Teresa Giudice has spent the last few months talking about how careful she needs to be with money now that she has admitted to a slew of financial crimes and still owes more than $200,000 in restitution, but she seems to be having a tough time actually doing it. "The Real Housewives of New Jersey" star has always had a difficult time telling her kids that they cannot have something, and now that Giudice is just weeks away from turning herself in to a Connecticut prison camp, saying no is even tougher. That is probably why when 13-year-old Gia Guidice's all-girl group 3KT failed to make enough money to fund a music video through a Kickstarter campaign, it was Teresa to the rescue.According to a report by Radar Online, the campaign raised only a little more than $900 of the $7,500 needed to make the video so 3KT's manager canceled the initial shoot. There was no way Giudice was going to allow her oldest daughter to be disappointed heading into the last holiday they will be able to spend together for a while, so she decided to foot a nice chunk of the bill to get the video made.

  • It Looks Like 'RHONJ' Will Be Shelved Until Teresa Giudice Is Released from Prison in April 2016!

    Just about every day now we are hearing a different story about what the future may hold for Teresa Giudice in terms of work. "The Real Housewives of New Jersey" star is scheduled to begin serving a 15-month sentence Jan. 5 after pleading guilty to financial fraud. The most recent season of her reality show wrapped up in October, and now Bravo executives need to figure out what they are going to do. At first it was rumored that "RHONJ" would continue on and bring back some old fan favorites to the canvas, but now it seems that Bravo is more inclined to put the series on hiatus.According to a report by Radar Online, sources close to the show are saying that network execs are fearing that without Giudice, the ratings will be dismal. Even with her there this past season, the numbers took a serious dip. Apparently, some insiders seem to think that shelving the show for a while is the best thing to do. Storylines seem to be a real problem because most of the latest additions to the cast have bored viewers into changing the channel.If "RHONJ" takes a break now and returns in 2016 with Giudice in the cast, fresh out of prison, it would likely do well. Fans of the show would want to see if jail time has changed her, and we already know that Giudice will be looking for a way to profit from her unfortunate experience. It might actually be the only way to get more mileage out of the show.

  • 'RHOA's' Apollo Nida was a Wire-Wearing Snitch for Feds, Recorded Conversations with Costar Peter Thomas and 'Love & Hip Hop Atlanta's' Kirk Frost

    'Phaedra Parks must be wondering what the heck she was thinking to not only involve herself with a man like Apollo Nida, but to actually marry and have kids with him.

He was released from prison a few years back and the two married and had two sons before he got in trouble again.

  • 'The Real Housewives of New Jersey's' Teresa Giudice Cancels Fabellini Meet And Greet Amid Backlash From Former Fans

    Since being sentenced to 15 months behind bars for a handful of admitted financial crimes, Teresa Giudice seems to have a handle on the reality that she's no longer a real 'fan favorite'. When word spread that The Real Housewives of New Jersey star had planned on continuing on as if nothing had changed the backlash was pretty loud. Giudice had intended on still hosting a meet and greet on Oct. 8 in Westwood, N.J.

  • James Spader Dishes On Loving The Surprises In 'The Blacklist' Scripts And Filming With Mary-Louise Parker

    The first season of The Blacklist left fans hanging with no less than a pile of unanswered questions and luckily the wait for season 2 is nearly over. When we last saw Ray Reddington, played to perfection by James Spader, he was still working with the FBI as a turncoat and his relationship to Agent Elizabeth Keen (Megan Boone) was still murky. Perhaps the biggest ongoing question is whether or not Red is Liz's father and just when fans think that they have it figured out along comes a curve ball to mess it all up again. Spader recently talked about the difficulties of starting a brand new show and how everyone involved in season one kind of figured it out as they went along. Season two actually begins a few months after where we left the characters and the same threats exist.
