 | The Real Housewives of New Jersey: Danielle Staub Odd One Outposted by RF Club, Group AdministratorMonday, August 2nd 2010 @ 6:58 PM (not yet rated) |
Real Housewives of New Jersey Franchise has been setup from the beginning as a four against one show. Caroline Manzo, Dina Manzo, Jacqueline Laurita and Teresa Giudice against Danielle Staub. Of course, the first season we were led to believe that Jacqueline Laurita was friends with Danielle Staub. Maybe they were friends at one time, who knows but once Caroline and Dina decided that Danielle was garbage Jacqueline had no chance of remaining friends with Danielle. Teresa does not think for herself and she certainly was not going to go against the Manzo's. I do believe none of them thought things would get so ugly!
Now, Danielle. Do I believe Danielle has a checkered past? Yep. Do I believe Danielle likes drama? Yep
BUT EVERY. SINGLE. ONE. OF. THE. HOUSEWIVES. DO. That is why they are all on the shows. AND I DO MEAN ALL of THEM, even the ones that have used the venue to parlay into greener pastures. The drama and limelight is what they have all USED to BRAND themselves. We can ALL, as HOUSEWIVES VIEWERS and LOVERS, argue over the extent to which each one likes the drama but to go on these shows they all partake in the DRAMA. Okay. Back to the regular schedule post, New Jersey (LOL)
The Four against One setup. It worked great for New Jersey. Why? Because, along with Danielle's checkered past, she has that "you have to be loyal to me" friend personality. We all have those friends. You know, needy, and you can't be friends with people 'they deem are against them'. By the way, this does fit the personality of abused children and children from unstable homes. Do the research! Not that I am saying this excuses all of Danielle's crap. Danielle could use some therapy. She clearly needs to be taught that friendships have to have boundaries and friends don't like to feel smothered. But, let's not fixate on Danielle's emotional problems.
Here is the deal. The Manzo's, meaning Caroline and Dina decided they did not like Danielle. They deemed her beneath their family and then they dug up the proof. Oh, they are so proud of digging up the proof. They found a book written by Danielle's ex-husband and they flashed it around town but even better they knew this would end up on National Television. We all know the book. "A Cop Without a Badge" written by Kevin Maher. Danielle has admitted that she went down the wrong path early in her youth. She since then has cleaned up her act and she is raising two beautiful young girls.
The Manzo's are believing and praising the man who wrote the book. Kevin Maher. This man was a former felon, turned informant and Oh, by the way when he married young Danielle when he was already married, making him a bigamist. SOUNDS LIKE A HELL OF GUY!! But, what I find interesting is Jacqueline Laurita and the Manzo's continue to keep in contact with this man. Jacqueline tweets that they learn more and more about Danielle from this man and they do not believe her because Maher says, "Danielle is a pathological liar". For some reason, the Manzo's believe his repentance and forgive his early transgressions??? Jacqueline also makes sure that we all know that this man has passed a five hour video taped lie detector tests and Danielle refuses to take one. Jacqueline, "You should talk to Albie Manzo, I know he struggled through one year of law school but he should be able to inform you why the courts do not allow lie detector tests. First, they are unreliable. Second, a felon turned informant would be considered way to risky because of his ease of lying under pressure. In addition, Jacqueline, Kevin Maher was a bigamist, he already has a track record of being able to easily lie and fool people." I really truly find it amazing that the Manzo's associate with this man. He is clearly using them to keep his book in the press and now possibly have a movie made. "Hey, Jacqueline, are you trying to get Ashley the role of Danielle?"
Then, You have the other two Dumbo's. Daniel Aguilar, alleged Drug Dealer boyfriend trying to sue and he wants his money back AND he called to blackmail her??? Can't imagine why Danielle hates the Manzo's I do believe they brought these lovely people right back to her front step. Of course, then we have women who hate so much that they even defend men selling sex tapes. I mean, they hate Danielle so much that they turned it around on her. I do believe Teresa chalked it up to youth and young men just being young. TERESA in what UNIVERSE is that acceptable?? If a woman is trusting enough to be intimate and film with a guy for whatever reason, I am not gonna judge, I am going to call that intimacy between two people, that we believe it is OKAY for someone to betray that intimacy and chalk it up to youth? And why do we consider MID twenties youth and yet Danielle's mistakes unforgivable???? Oh, and Steve's LIE on television about the sex tape was that, A. LIE. Here is the quote from the New York Post, Steve Zalewski said, "I'm definitely weighing my options as far as selling them and getting them out there. She (Danielle) cost me so much money, Why shouldn't I make a few dollars?" This was before taping. "Teresa, Pay attention PUHLEASE"
The bottom line. The Real Housewives of New Jersey is a show that is about four women hell bent on bringing a woman down who made serious mistakes in her youth. From what we gather, the Manzo's brought out her past. They pissed off Danielle and she retaliated. I am sorry who wouldn't it??? Then it became a tit for tat game. Things spiraled when Ashley Holmes moved into Facebook and Twitter games and from what we could tell Jacqueline played a roll in some of the banter. Please, we all know that everyone knew having Ashley model at the Fashion Show would set Danielle off. Who was playing games??? The Manzo's, oh and Kim D (bucking to get on the show).
This is all called Passive Aggressive games by the Manzo's. They play this, we are not going to talk about her but we have to be on the show game and so on, passive aggressive. Look it up in the dictionary. But, honestly, Danielle didn't bite. She was pissed and rude and made comments but she was walking out of the Country Club without making a scene. Oh, and by the way when I am pissed I make irrational comments to. Danielle got stabbed in the back by Kim D. Period and Teresa and Jacqueline knew it. They were loving it. Sitting there with the owner. Then, Teresa and Jacqueline sat and waited for her. But in the end,The losers in this game turned out to be the Manzo's. Ashley Holmes has assault on her record. A criminal record. You know how Jacqueline likes to mention over and over that Danielle was convicted,well, now her daughter has plead guilty to a crime. That has to be reported on every application she fills out, correct Albie???
This is why the Manzo's and Jacqueline are even more vengeful but they forget who really started this fight, don't they?
Below are Jacqueline Laurita's Tweets. On July 31st. Did you get that DATE. July 31st and as usual she tries to justify, court and depositions. This a woman who will not move on! These tweets are inappropriate, she talk to Albie Manzo, you know the lawyer wanna be! Jacqueline needs to back off the Domestic Violence. She was not there. It is a 'He said, she said' situation. We know why Jacqueline hates Danielle and oh, by the way, Danielle hasn't lied about the Country Club incident. Ashley has used many excuses, 'I thought my mom was hurt, I blacked out from adrenaline and so on.
In additon, Jacqueline I don't give a shit that Maher was never convicted on any domestic violence, unfortunately in our society it is hard to convict a man and many women are afraid to press charges, the exact reason the men beat them continuously. Danielle's situation from what we understand was bad and I am not thinking she could run to the authorities because they were ALL involved in illegal activities during that time. Now present time, Jacqueline and Manzo's Did it ever occur to you that this lawsuit helps keep him in the limelight and his book??? Just maybe you guys are being played by a con-artist???
@DanielleStaub We were out 2dinner w/ur ex bc YOU involved us in UR court battle by the two of u trying 2depose us. Now do u get it?Ur fault
Kevin Maher passed a 5hr. Video taped polygraph PROVING @DanielleStaub LIED! Y wouldn't YOU take one? He said he'd pay 4 it?
Kevin only admitted 2hitting @DanielleStaub once in self defense after she stabbed him in elmwood park,nj 1989 when she was arrested.
FACT Kevin Maher was NEVER convicted of any domestic violence charge in his life.
Lastly, I tend to like to look at the other side of situations and if possible offer another side or thought. What I have always believed is there are two sides to every story and the truth lies somewhere in the middle!!!
