Teresa Giudice from The Real Housewives of New Jersey went super dark and smokey in a black mini dress. Her hair was teased into a sky-high ponytail and she was wearing thick black eyeliner and silver shadow.

Joanna Krupa from The Real Housewives of Miami wore a colorful hot pink satin dress with pink leopard chiffon detailing. The Miami sun gave her a sun-kissed look, as she wore her hair in big, beachy waves. A subtle smokey eye brought the attention to her blue eyes, while her pink lips looked full and shiny.

Brandi Glanville from The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills stole the spotlight in her plunging-to-her-bellybutton red mini dress. She magnified her lashes, and rocked a defined pink bush and slightly red lip. Her blonde hair was slightly curled with her dark roots peeking out. Her deep tan was accented with gold shoes.

Melissa Gorga from The Real Housewives of New Jersey wore a sexy green dress. Her long brown hair looked gorgeous with subtle highlights. She rocked a center part and soft waves. Her makeup look was subtle with a nude lip and luxe, long lashes. A soft pink blush highlighted her cheekbones.

HollywoodLife.com spoke with ‘Real Housewives of Orange County’ star Tamra who tells us that she and Eddie are slowing planning their big day — Plus, she reveals what her three kids think!

Tamra Barney is planning a wedding! The Bravo reality star says that since announcing her engagement this past March, her life has been a whirlwind. But she says even though she and fiance Eddie Judge are “taking things slow,” she knows she wants it in Italy!

“Honestly we’re talking about February,” she told us of her upcoming nuptials. “We have a lot going on, a destination wedding maybe in Italy?”

But she did add that she and Eddie aren’t in a huge rush because she wants to make sure her kids can adjust.

“We are just taking it slow,” she says. “We just combined our families together back in February, so it’s a whole process. I said I’d get married when the kids are ready.”

So are her kids with ex-husband Simon Barney: Sidney, 14, Spencer, 12, and Sophia, 6, ready for their mom to say ‘I’do’?

“Divorce is never easy and it takes a long time for the kids to adjust,” she says. “I don’t know if the kids will ever be completely ready. They still in their minds hope and dream their parents will be together. So we are just taking it slow one day at a time. It’ll happen when it happens.”

But one things for sure, her kids will definitely be involved in the ceremony: “Sidney has a lot to say about the dress, my six-year-old definitely wants to be a flower girl and my 12-year-old son could care less.”

'RHONJ': Teresa Giudice's Brother Joe Begs Her To See A Therapist

Chloe Melas — Mon, 04 Jun 2012 05:00:25 +0000

Joe finally decides that he wants to make amends with his big sister but she isn’t excited at all about going to counseling — Plus, Caroline Manzo’s brother marries his partner and reveals how hard it was to admit he was gay.

Teresa Giudice is one tough lady! After fighting for the past several episodes of the Real Housewives of New Jersey, Joe Giudice accepts the fact that his relationship with Teresa Giudice will not get better — unless they seek family therapy! But on the June 3 episode of RHONJ, Joe begs Teresa to see a therapist, but what does she say?

Joe sends Teresa a long and heartfelt text about how he wants his sister back in his life. But she starts laughing when she reads the text and is offended that he’d ask her to go a therapist. Instead, she thinks he should go alone because she doesn’t have any problems!

Meanwhile, Caroline Manzo‘s brother finally decides to get married. The entire Manzo clan, with the exception of Dina Manzo, head to Chicago for the union. But even though Caroline’s brother invites Teresa and Joe — Caroline still isn’t ready to forgive Teresa for causing rifts in her own family.

Caroline is doing her best to not get into a huge fight with Teresa because she doesn’t want to overshadow the wedding. She actually calls herself a “ticking time bomb” and is hoping she doesn’t have to encounter Teresa much at all.

There was a running theme in the show — don’t hide who you really are. Kathy Wakile‘s sister talked about how she told her family she was a lesbian and she got very emotional at one point. It was a refreshing episode because it was a change from the normal petty banter.

At the end of the episode Teresa still isn’t sure if she should go to counseling — should she?

Rosie Pope: If Your Child Can Say 'Boobies' Then Don't Breastfeed

Chloe Melas — Mon, 14 May 2012 20:07:54 +0000

HollywoodLife.com spoke with the ‘Pregnant in Heels’ star about the controversial cover and she says breastfeeding is a good thing but why it shouldn’t go through kindergarten!

Rosie Pope is the ultimate mom! The Bravo reality star came to the HollywoodLife.com offices right before giving birth to her third child, a little girl named Vivienne Madison Pope, and she gave us her strong opinions about the TIME breastfeeding cover.

“Breastfeeding in the United States has been a controversial issue for some time,” Rosie tells us. “Particularly breastfeeding older children. It’s without a doubt … breastfeeding is really great for babies. It really helps them help their immune system in so many ways. But the question is ‘how long is it good to breastfeed?’”

Drumroll please …

“My opinions are that in America … if your child is walking around, going to school, and can say the word ‘boobies’ … it’s probably time to stop!”

Bravo Host Andy Cohen Wants To Distance Himself From 'The Real Housewives'

Hollywood Life Staff — Thu, 10 May 2012 16:37:40 +0000

Andy Cohen is sick of the petty drama brought on by The Real Housewives and wants to cut them out of his life.

Bravo’s Andy Cohen is tired of being the referee in The Real Housewives‘ cat-fights! And who could blame him?!

Even though the franchise has made Andy a household name, the Watch What Happens Live host is ready to leave the drama behind and be taken seriously as a talk-show host.

“Andy has been trying to distance himself from ‘Housewives’” a source tells the Daily News.

With the exception of former RHONY Bethenny Frankel, Andy finds the other cast members too déclassé to run in his high-powered social scene.

“He wants to have his fancy celebrity friends and the girls don’t fit,” the source reveals.

CNN’s Anderson Cooper threw a swanky soiree to celebrate the release of Andy’s memoir, Most Talkative: Stores From the Front Lines of Pop Culture, on May 5 — but aside from Bethenny, none of the Housewives made the guest list.

Instead, Andy celebrated his book’s publication at Anderson’s converted west village firehouse with other established TV personalities, including Jimmy Fallon, Kelly Ripa and Gayle King.

Though Andy still depends on the Bravo socialites to boast his ratings, the source reveals that he ”ultimately wants to compete with Chelsea Handler and Jimmy Fallon.”

A rep from the network denies that Andy wants to separate himself from the Housewives, adding, “Bravo is throwing a party for Andy [on May 14] and every Bravolebrity is invited.”

Do YOU think Andy is warranted for wanting to distance himself from The Real Housewives?
