"The Real Housewives of D.C." show would be nothing without reality super star Michaele Salahi. Now, the alleged White House party crasher and her husband are being served with a lawsuit.

Shortly after the season premiere of "Real Housewives", the former NFL Cheerleader and model got into a heated interview session on "The View" and an off-camera confrontation with co-host Whoopi Goldberg.

Now, the couple's PR attorney Lisa Bloom is saying "The View" "defamed" the couple and is on grounds for lawsuit. Bloom also accused the show of rigging a negative character of Michaele on the show when co-host Sherri Shepherd said she "should be thrown in jail" for the White House invasion. According to Bloom, "The View" producers tuned on the "Applause" light to signal clapping from the audience.

“She was branded a ‘gatecrasher’ five times and was even told she should go to jail," Bloom said to RadarOnline.com. "My client is not a criminal and she has not been charged by anybody for any crime."

Adding, "You can't call someone a rapist or a murderer when there are no charges against them. So why is it OK to defame my client?"

Conversely she says, "My client is a sweet person who has done nothing wrong and somebody should take responsibility for this."
