While viewers are on the brink of a blow-out for part 2 of the ‘RHONJ’ season finale, Melissa reveals she’s still very upset about what’s about to go down! She says she thinks Teresa planted the stripper drama! Read on for ALL the juicy details!
Uh oh! Just when it appeared like everything was fine in Jersey, Angelo had to step in the picture and create drama by claiming that Melissa Gorga was a stripper for him on the Sept. 16th RHONJ episode. Now the New Jersey Housewife admits that she feels Angelo’s visit was set-up by her sister-in-law, Teresa Giudice! Talk about the ultimate betrayal!
“Watching the episode brought back so many emotions. I was sick. It makes me want to stand in front of Teresa and scream at her. It makes my skin crawl,” Melissa tells Us Weekly.
In case you missed it on Sept. 16, Teresa met Angelo when she was getting ready for the Posche fashion show with Kim DePaola – who told Teresa that he knew Melissa because she used to “dance” for him.
“Anyone with two eyes can see that it was a complete setup. For the last four seasons, Teresa got her hair and makeup done in her house by the same stylists. Are you trying to tell me it’s just such a coincidence that Teresa happens to be going with her new buddy, Kim DePaola — a troublemaker and s**t stirrer — to this salon she’s never heard of, and it just so happens to be this guy for the salon, and it just so happens he knows me?” she tells the mag.
While it’s unclear if this was in fact a setup, one thing is for sure: Melissa says she definitely wasn’t a stripper!
“I was a bartender. Lookers [where she knew Angelo] was not even a strip club. There was no nudity. It was girls wearing bikinis. There were no lap dances, no back room. I wore black shorts, a white tank top and sneakers,” she says.
Hmm! It’s safe to assume what’s going to happen on the Sept. 23rd finale won’t be pretty!
What do YOU think, HollywoodLifers? Do YOU think Teresa set up Melissa on the Sept. 16th episode? Weigh in and vote below.

I used to enjoy Teresa and her innocent like antics. The last two seasons I have lost any joy in watching Teresa. I cannot belive the ego on Teresa,,, the things that come out of her mouth about her being THE star of the show are completely laughable. At this point, Teresa is an annoyance that you turn your head from when on screen so that you can enjoy the real people on the show. The thing that got me the most was Teresa’s statement that all Jaculine has in her life is to worry about Teresa… OMG what a thoughtless and cold thing to say after Jac just recently broke down over what is going on with her son, I have never heard a more idiotic statement or seen such heartless behavior as Teresa showed on the reunion. I am a fan of everyone on that show EXCEPT the Guidice family.
