Danielle Has Two Projects She Is Working On
Post from Hollywood Life.
Laura Schreffler & Nicole Fukuoka
Danielle has left The Real Housewives of New Jersey drama behind — and is about to create some new drama with her family, friends and…lesbian lovers?
“I’m doing two projects – my spinoff and my real show,” the former Real Housewives of New Jersey star told HollywoodLife.com exclusively at MTV VMA’s Remembering 9/11 gifting suite in Beverly Hills, Calif. Sept. 10. “It’s about me and my kids and my questionable sexuality, my music, my daughter’s music, my assistants, my executive assistants, my assistant’s assistants, the interns, some flipping out scenes, some resolution scenes.”
Er, that explains alot…NOT. But one thing IS for sure — Danielle, who swears up and down she wasn’t fired by Bravo, still plans on being a reality villain! “I’m still the villain of reality television, so I’m going to keep it real,” she told us. “The real me – red carpets, charity, everything I do in 24 hours – is what you’ll see. I only sleep for two of them!”
Danielle also responds to rumors that she was fired from RHONJ and warns her fans that not everything you see on reality TV is, well, REAL. “I want [all my fans] to just pay attention, please, because in time you will all see the real me! I’m doing this for my family, my fans and my friends – everybody else is either going to love me or hate me. I don’t want to change anyone’s mind, I want them to form their own opinions. I don’t need everyone to love me, I don’t. I don’t care, as long as they’re still paying attention.”

Red Hot: La Roux's Eleanor Jackson On Love, Death and Hair Kelly Bensimon's Fashion Week Diary Part 1: The Fashion and TV Worlds Should Hang Out More
By Kelly Bensimon
It's not just the designers that make the fashion wheel turn. If personal shoppers don't like items, they don't sell. If press doesn't speak well of trends, they don't sell. It was fun to watch the TV peeps observe how the fashion peeps navigate. Little do the TV peeps know that one look and 2.4 million viewers makes a huge impact for designers. Maybe TV and fashion should have a beer and discuss the possibilities. Just a thought.

[Kelly Bensimon, whom you might know from a little television show called The Real Housewives of New York, is a model, writer, party circuit fixture and general lady-about-town. Who better, then, to cover the goings on in NYC during Fashion Week for PAPERMAG? Here, Kelly tells us how her Fashion Week kicked off and shares her ideas about how the television and fashion world can help each other out]
Gold bar hosted a party for me Thursday night to celebrate the kick off of Spring 11 Fashion Week, and for my new role as guest blogger for papermag.com. Rob McKinley, the co-owner/designer of GoldBar and The Surf Lodge, is pictured here with me at Gold Bar. As a designer, he is responsible for many of the most buzzed-about hotspots in town. In his spare time he loves to get in the DJ booth and spin records. All of my TV producers came to see all of the fashion insiders who were there, like my jewelry designer, as well as the fashion publicists, Cosmo Radio uber talents, press reporters, and amazing personal shoppers from Intermix and Stella McCartney who stopped by.It's not just the designers that make the fashion wheel turn.

Michaele Owes Her Doctor
Post from TMZ.
A rep for Salahi -- who has been ordered to face the charges in a Virginia court on September 17 -- tells us, the DC housewife did in fact see the good doc in question ... but as far as she's concerned, the bill was settled.
Suspected White House Crasher Michaele Salahi may need to save more face than Botox can handle -- because the "Housewives" star is being sued for allegedly stiffing her plastic surgeon.

The man behind the lawsuit is Dr. Navin Singh -- from Ivy Plastic Surgery in Maryland -- who tells TMZ, he performed several "procedures" on Salahi last April -- but Michaele never paid the bill in full.
According to the suit, filed in federal court in Virginia, Salahi still owes a cool $500 for unnamed procedures.
Dr. Singh wouldn't confirm the nature of the procedures -- but according to sources connected to the lawsuit, it's all over unpaid Botox injections ... which we're told Salahi had requested for a fundraising event a few days later.

Danielle Has Moved
Post from E! Online.
Staub declines to call Michaels her girlfriend, but smiled, "Even Helen Keller can see from our pictures what we are."
Could a wedding be in their future? "I don't know if I want to get remarried right now, but eventually," she said. (FYI: Gay marriage is legal in N.J.)
The two met a couple of years ago during a gay pride event. The rest of their story, Staub hopes, will be told in a new reality show she is currently pitching to networks.
Nothin' says love like a reality show.
I've got more Danielle for ya. Make sure to keep coming back here for all the Jersey scoop.

The Real Housewives of New Jersey star tells me she's moved out of the house and town where she and her daughters lived while filming the Garden State reality show...

"I'm in New Jersey right on the water but I live probably about 40 minutes away from them," she said, referring to her Housewives enemies costars. "It was two days after the reunion. I got up and I left.
"My view is of Manhattan," she added. "I go to sleep and wake up to Manhattan every day."
And while she doesn't exactly say it, it sounds like she may be waking up to Lesbian Superstar Lori Michaels every day, too. "We're together every day, all day," Staub said. "Her whole family is now an extension of my whole family. Her family is with my kids right now...So we're close."

Caroline Welcomes Mary To The Real Housewives
Article from the LA Times blog.
By: Yvonne Villarreal
When Caroline Manzo, the matriarch over on “The Real Housewives of New Jersey,” walks into a room, one can’t help but stammer. Exhibit A: Danielle Staub. So it’s no surprise that Mary Schmidt Amons, part of the hit franchise’s D.C. version, found that her daughter Meghan had the same reaction … only the stammering came from excitement, not terror.
The mother-daughter duo crossed paths with Manzo, who’s family is known to be “thick as thieves,” while filming an appearance on a talk show recently in New York.
“She kept shoving me, saying ‘Mom! Mom! Mom!,” Amons said during a visit to L.A. earlier this week. “We were at a busy NBC lobby, and I couldn’t figure out if there was a rock star in the corner or something. No. It was Caroline Manzo.”
“Meghan was in heaven,” Amons said. “She was like, ‘Oh, my gosh. That was ama-zzzzzzzing.”
But Manzo isn’t the only Bravo-lebrity who has won the affection of the D.C. (McClean, if you’re being precise) clan.
When Amons met “Flipping Out’s” Jeff Lewis at a recent network bash, she made sure to get photographic evidence to send to her daughter Alexandra.
“She is probably one of his biggest fans,” Amons said. “She was like ‘Nooooooo way!’ I was quite proud of myself.”
While Amons may not have the same effect on her daughters, she’s still getting some attention.
“Someone asked me to autograph a dog bed,” she said. “I mean, it doesn’t get any weirder than that.”

No. It was Caroline Manzo.”
Like a good neighbor, Manzo welcomed Amons to the “Housewives” block. Amons, granddaughter of legendary radio and TV personality Arthur Godfrey, is founder of D.C.-based Labels for Love and co-founder of the District Sample Sale; she became part of the "Housewives" clan when the show premiered in August. But Amons’ daughter was less impressed with her mother’s induction into the reality sorority … after all, she had just met the referee of the ham game.
“Meghan was in heaven,” Amons said. “She was like, ‘Oh, my gosh. That was ama-zzzzzzzing.”

Jill At Barneys FNO Karoake
Post from New York Magazine.
The family camped out in the dressing room and tried to decide who to bring backstage. There was a discussion of rotating children, but in the end, Zarin and family just left. When we asked about the abrupt departure, she said, "It's just too hot."

Jill Zarin had a dilemma on her hands, and it wasn't just figuring out how to square Fashion's Night Out with Rosh Hashanah. The Real Housewives of New York star arrived at the Barneys FNO Karoake, which was being judged by the Olsen twins, with husband Bobby, daughter Ally, and a swarm of cute little nieces. "We went to dinner, temple, and on the way home we're stopping by because I got my nieces with me who wanted to go by and see the Olsen twins," she told us. "I'm not happy Fashion's Night Out is on Rosh Hashanah, I think they should change the night."
After Zarin and family pushed through the overflowing crowd waiting for a peek of the Olsens (who arrived a full hour behind schedule), a staffer behind the velvet rope told Zarin she could only bring one other person backstage with her. Talk about Sophie's Choice!
