'RHONJ' Jacqueline Laurita Says Teresa Giudice is "Calculating and Scheming"

Jacqueline Laurita is definitely not holding back this season. She is being honest and very forthcoming, especially when it comes to Teresa Giudice.

Jacqueline remarked, "I was very disappointed by the obvious calculating and scheming ways of certain people in this episode, but it doesn't surprise me. It's a shame."

She then goes on to say that it was Teresa that she was referring to. It is not a surprise that she would say something like this about Teresa. Tre has been this way since day one, but especially all of this season. She seems determined to ruin Melissa and anger Caroline as much as possible.

Jacqueline Laurita and Teresa are still friends so far this season, but it appears that this will change and this is something that fans will have to watch the reunion show to see. It is nice to see Jac finally standing up for herself when it comes to Teresa. It took her a while, but she is finally seeing Tre for who she truly is.
If the entire cast comes back for another season, it will be very interesting to see what the dynamic is like. Teresa is officially the new Danielle Staub and she seems to unintentionally -- or maybe intentionally -- be working to keep things this way.

'RHOOC' Vicki Gunvalson Says Her Relationship with Brooks Has Been Damaged

Vicki Gunvalson remains in the news despite the season being over. The latest is an interesting comment that she made about Brooks Ayers. She says that their relationship has suffered some damage.

Vicki said, "We are still dating. It's been definitely damaged by all the negativity."

Maybe "negativity" is her way of saying that she is starting to see the truth about him and it is making her think twice. Unfortunately, Vicki seems completely blinded by this guy. He is like a car salesman trying to sell a rusted out car, but talks it up so well that the buyer completely sees past the rust.

It is not known if Vicki Gunvalson will be back for another season, but if she is, fans can hope she returns without Brooks at her side. If she ditches him, she may have a chance to repair all of the relationships that were destroyed because of Brooks.

Bethenny Frankel has Breast Implants Removed

Bethenny Frankel is not one to hold back about anything. She recently opened up about her battle with her breasts. She says that she was heavier in high school and did not like her breasts then. In her 20s, she got implants and a lift and ended up unhappy, so she got them removed.

When talking about her D-cup implants, Bethenny says, "I didn't feel like it was right on me. I felt kind of sloppy. I felt like they were unwieldy and all over the place."

Once she could afford another lift and to have her implants removed, she seized the opportunity.
Bethenny Frankel is a small women, so overwhelming breasts certainly did not suit her well. Her less voluptuous size makes her look more natural and more fitting for her body type.

Now, she can frolic in bikinis and wear her little black dress with confidence and a more natural fit.

Phillip Phillips Headed for Kidney Surgery: What About the Idol Tour?

Phillip Phillips is the latest to grab the Idol honors, but his rise to the top was not a bit easy. Throughout the season, he was constantly seeing doctors for his kidneys, mostly kidney stone issues. Those who do not know, please know that kidney stones are excruciatingly painful.

Now, the Idol Tour is on its way and Phillip needs surgery. He says that he will be perfectly fine to tour, but as most know, things do not always go smoothly. The world hopes they do for him, but you just never know.

He says he has to get his right kidney fixed pretty soon. PhillipPhillips also stated, "I'm not really missing anything. I'll be 100 percent by then, so I'm excited! I should be good to go by tour."

Those lucky enough to score tickets to see him live are surely keeping their fingers crossed that his kidney surgery goes smoothly and he is ready to rock out by the time the tour dates start.

Caroline Manzo Reprimands Gia Giudice on the 'Real Housewives of New Jersey

Caroline Manzo had to reprimand Gia Giudice for throwing a tantrum of diva-like proportions at Jacqueline's field day event on the Real Housewives of New Jersey. Little Gia was on the losing field day team and simply could not handle it.

Teresa's spoiled daughter lashed out at Caroline and Jacqueline when they attempted to console her. She was crying and flailing and Caroline tried to tell her that her mom and uncle -- Joe Gorga -- were actually having fun together and getting along. Gia just became more hostile and disrespectful.

"I don't care whose child you are or how upset you are; you do not look an adult in the face and tell them to be quiet, mind their business and get out of the room," remarked Caroline Manzo.

Of course, Teresa jumped to her daughter's defense and chastised Caroline and Jacqueline for attempting to instill some respect and class in Gia. Teresa pretty much told Gia that she did nothing wrong by acting like a 2-year-old who lost their favorite binky.

Miley Cyrus Goes Without Pants at the Billboard Music Awards

Miley Cyrus has been stunning the world with her fashion choices for quite some time now. At the Billboard Music Awards, the 19-year-old walked the red carpet in a white double-breasted blazer and, well, nothing else.

The blazer was very low-cut, plunging down to almost her belly button. The bottom of the blazer was several inches above the knee and looked like it would be difficult to sit in while still keeping things a mystery. Thankfully Cyrus was not carrying a clutch because if she had dropped it, she would have never been able to bend over and pick it up.

The former Disney star left nothing to the imagination with this blazer, but she did have a pair of hot black and white peep toes and a simple gold necklace to complement.

To balance out the bad outfit choice, Miley Cyrus did have beautiful makeup and hair that made her look like a young woman from the 1940s. Her hair and makeup was elegant and classy, which is more than can be said for the rest of her look.

Christina Aguilera Loving Her New Curves

Christina Aguilera loves her body. And, by the way, so does her boyfriend. Why shouldn't she. She looks great as a curvier woman.

“Women, we are definitely under a microscope and under massive scrutiny,” said Christina. “As long as I am happy in my own skin, that is all that is all the confirmation I need.”

This is really how all women should think I am not advocating obesity (Christina is absolutely not near obese by the way), but I do believe that women should learn to love themselves, despite imperfections. We all have them and are all far from perfect. And, when it comes down to it, most guys only care that we are naked, not what we look like naked.

So, she will get no cheeseburger jokes from me. I will save those for Kirstie Alley's next tumble off of the wagon.
