Countess LuAnn from Real Housewives of New York City Turns Scandal Into Acting Work

Countess LuAnn de Lessep is showing that money can't buy you class, but flaunting the fact that you have it on TV might actually buy you a real-life career. She's got two acting gigs signed up and in the can--First, Luann makes a regal cameo on an all-new Royal Pains, USA's medical drama. Her performance will hopefully improve upon her foray into a singing career. Tune in to the show to see.


LuAnn never passes up a good cause and here's one she most recently got behind--or in front of the camera for! The LGBT supporter has gotten her picture taken for the NOH8 Campaign. Along with 2000 other famous faces, celebrity photographer Adam Bouska shot LuAnn with duct tape over her mouths and "NOH8" (no hate) written on her cheek. A very arresting image, no?

Is LuAnn famous enough to do a charity a favor? I wouldn't have thought so but I think the show is such a hit that her mug is soon to be plastered everywhere she can get it. Remember, she wants another big apartment in the city--LuAnn could never really be satisfied with only that amazing Hamptons abode she's staying in with the kids now (or six months ago, or whatever). Do you think that endorsements like these bode well for these types of charitites?

Danielle says "I am a full-fledged member of the gay community"

Article on Fox.com about Danielle and gay rights.

By Allison McGevna
Amid rumors about her sexuality, “Real Housewives of New Jersey” star Danielle Staub tells FOX411.com that she is a full-fledged member of “the gay community.”

“I haven’t even begun my work in the gay community yet,” Staub said. “I want to go to senate, I want to pass a bill and get gay marriage legalized. I go to events, I march in rallies. I’ve been a part of the gay community for 30 years.”

Staub said she used Monday's performance with Lori Michaels on Bravo’s “Watch What Happens Live” to raise awareness about the “tortured” feelings of someone in love who wants to express it but feels that they can’t.

“I met Lori a year ago at a gay pride parade. I fell in love with her music, which deals a lot with the issue of equality. It was very organic for me, that performance,” she added.

Staub’s passionate performance on "Watch What Happens" started the rumor mill churning that the divorced mother of two is a lesbian. She described the song to host Andy Cohen as being about “a lotta lady lovin'.”

After the performance with Michaels, where she nuzzled her shoulders and stroked her hair, Staub played coy when Cohen asked her if she was in a relationship with the gay songwriter. “We’re not saying anything besides that we’re doing the song, ‘Real Close.’”

She later referred to Michaels as her "gf" on Twitter.

Staub tells FOX411.com that her decision to leave questions about her sexuality open was a calculated one.

“I want that question mark there,” she said. “If I’m suggesting something, people pay attention. A long time ago, I realized the power of my fame and that my work on Bravo has given me a voice. Women are going to talk about me, why not use my fame for awareness.”

With her daughters in tow, Staub told FOX411.com that the gay community has always embraced her and made her feel like family.

“Since birth, my daughters have been a part of the gay community. From teachers to friends, these are the people they are surrounded by. I don’t feel as comfortable around mainstream society as I do around that community," she said. "I don’t feel as comfortable around heterosexual people as I do around gay people.”

Staub, who does not get along with the rest of the "New Jersey Housewives," said she found “comfort” early in her life because gays didn’t care about problems in her past.

“When I got arrested, my dear friends like Tommy (who is gay) were the ones who bailed me out,” Staub said. “Now he is Uncle Tommy to the girls.”

Staub, who appeared with a man in a sex tape recently distributed by Hustler, said she and her daughters will continue to do activist work on behalf of gay rights, but stopped short of confirming she is indeed gay herself.

“I’m not ready to say that one way or the other. Right now my focus is on my kids, but there is room for one more person in my world,” she added coyly. “Hopefully soon the world will see that.”
