Pot, meet Kettle.

Jacqueline & her hubby were hit with a lawsuit for fraud.

RadarOnline is reporting that Chris and his brother Joseph formed Signature Apparel Group (a company that once owned brands such as Rocawear and Eve’s Fetish) in 2005 and “drained the company” amassing a debt of $7,804,227 which was used to “support their luxurious lifestyle”!

According to documents the company banked more than $250 million between 2005 and 2009, but then surprisingly declared bankruptcy in September 2009, and just like their friend Teresa, someone started complaining that the bankruptcy petition might just be fraudulent. The suspicious bankruptcy filing prompted the debtor “to come forward with the complaint”, claiming company monies were “misused,” RadarOnline reveals.

It's interesting that she's given Tre so much grief over her bankrupcy filing and her lifestyle when it appears she herself was doing the same thing.

Yeah, I saw this earlier, ... but Jacqueline was giving Tre grief? Really? I don't remember her really saying too much about Tre's finances (but then again, I never read her blogs at all). But, as far as others, yeah ... we all thought Jacqueline was the sweetheart who had her shiggady together. Oh, well, ... I guess not.

I am starting to believe that with the exception of the BH wives (minus Taylor), BRAVO finds women & hubbies who are shady with their finances so they can then exploit their situations for ratings.

Kinda sad b/c as stupid as these people may be and as shady as their dealings may be, they still have young children that are going to inadvertently be dragged through the mud/humiliation/pain of knowing their parents are being labeled as criminals.

And I am starting to believe you're absolutely right.

When I look at ALL of them, ... and I do mean, ALLLLLLLLL of them, ... they all have issues. I never would've expected to hear these things about Jacqueline and her husband. Even as Ashley sat there with her biological father and his wife in that restaurant, I remember thinking to myself, "At least she has two parents who seem to have it together." Imagine how shocked I was to learn that they, too, had some shady financial business going on. It's like Bravo seeks these people out on purpose!

Alright, I'm actually starting to REALLY feel bad for Teresa right now, ... or at least embarassed for her.

On her FB fan page, she just posted a pic of herself and Joe on a motorcycle, claiming she was looking for a video of Milania, but came across the pic of her and hubby instead. She should never have asked, "Doesn't Joe look hot?" because she got several responses like, "You SUCK!" and "Jo Gorga is hotter!" and "Uh, Joe? No, ... you both look trashy ..." and it goes on and on and on. I actually feel really, REALLY bad for her ...

I feel sympathy to her to an extent b/c I do feel bad that people are so quick to bully her, jump down her throat, trash her etc. She makes an easy target for everyone else (i.e. Caroline, Jacqueline, Melissa, Kathy, fans and even Andy Cohen himself who jumped on the bully bandwagon towards her at the reunion). Sickening.

I haven't watched this show since the days of table flipping and prostitution whores, but if Kathy Wakile's sister Rosemarie Pierri is going to be on the show regularly I'm hooked. Bravo needs to give her a show of her own.

I feel for Teresa's little girl, Gia as she's old enough to be aware of things happening between her parents. Not only does she get called a "stupid whore" by her little sister, but her father tells her to shut up.

Have y'all seen Teresa's newest product, Fabellini? It is sparkling wine that comes in two flavors, peach or raspberry. I wonder if it tastes better or worse than Andre sparkling wine? Considering it costs three or four times as much a bottle, one would hope so, but not likely. I'm thinking it is probably like peach schnapps or Razzmatazz mixed with bubbles and Ripple
