• 'LHH' Mendeecees Harris Headed to Prison After Pleading Guilty to Drug Trafficking

    Fans of Love & Hip Hop NY have been wondering for the last year whatever became of that drug trafficking case that left Mendeecees Harris locked up for more than a year until Yandy Smith was finally able to bail out her man last spring. Harris was originally charged with running a drug ring between NYC and Rochester from 2005-2012 with his brother, Tyrus Harris and good friend, Ronald Walker. Both have plead guilty to the charges and as of now, Walker is serving 10 years in federal prison. While Harris has maintained his innocence since being released on bail, he recently struck a deal with prosecutors that was hinged on him entering a guilty plea.
  • Melissa Gorga Fears She'll Be Fired From 'RHONJ' Without Teresa Giudice to Fight With

    Could Melissa Gorga's days on "RHONJ" be about finished? Well, there are several things pointing in that direction. Gorga's storyline on the show for the last few seasons has been her constant feud with sister-in-law Teresa Giudice. By now everyone knows Giudice is in lockdown at a federal prison in Connecticut for the next year, and before leaving she demanded the Gorga's not discuss her family in the media in any way. Without Giudice, let's face it: There is precious little going on in Gorga's life. She fears sh'll be fired from the show.
  • Could LiLo Be Headed to Jail for Failing to Complete Community Service?

    It is sad that we all kind of expect Lindsay Lohan to screw up, and what is sadder is probably the fact that she always delivers. In November, she was granted an extension because she had 138 hours of community service to complete out of an original 240 hours that were handed down to her in connection with a 2012 case. At that time of sentencing, community service for the often-in-trouble Lohan seemed like a gift, but she apparently has not seen it that way. Lohan does not have her hours completed yet and that could mean jail time for the fallen star.
  • Gia Giudice Offers Up Heartfelt 'Just 13' While Teresa Screams at Joe From Behind Bars

    When Teresa Giudice turned herself in a few weeks ago to begin serving a 15-month prison sentence in Connecticut, she left behind her admittedly irresponsible husband, Joe Giudice, to handle their four daughters. In the last week we have learned that 13-year-old Gia Giudice has really stepped up to take care of her sisters, and the fact that it has been a necessity rather than a choice has left her mother absolutely furious.
  • 'RHONJ' Gia Giudice Takes Care of Sisters as Mother Teresa Spends Next Year in Jail

    So much attention has been placed on Teresa Giudice in recent months, especially after she was sentenced to time in federal prison. Fans of "The Real Housewives of New Jersey" kind of knew the star was a bit shady, but it was not until she pled guilty to fraud that it became apparent just how deceitful she really was. For weeks now we have talked about the fact that Teresa will spend the next 13 months behind bars in Danbury, Connecticut, while her admitted alcoholic husband Joe Giudice steps up and takes care of their four kids for the first time. What that means that a lot more responsibility is inevitably landing on the shoulders of 13-year-old Gia Giudice.
  • Joe Giudice's Wedding Ring's Off as He Juggles 4 Kids While Teresa's in Prison

    It only took Joe Giudice about 24 hours to ditch his wedding ring after his wife began serving her sentence at a federal prison in Danbury, Connecticut. Hours after Teresa Giudice turned herself in, Joe was spotted out and about in New Jersey without his ring. It has been widely reported that their marriage was in trouble, even before they were sentenced to serve prison time for purposely shady business dealings. Once jail time became official, with Teresa going away first, their marriage reportedly hit the skids hard. Fans of "The Real Housewives of New Jersey" already know the Giudices have had separate bedrooms for the last few years because the kids actually talked about it on camera. Now The Hollywood Life is reporting that Teresa may have agreed to an open marriage while she spends the next 13 months in custody. The one stipulation supposedly made is that he be extremely discreet in whatever he decides to do.
  • 'RHONJ' Teresa Giudice Had No Family Visit Yet Because She's in Drug Detox

    When Teresa Giudice turned herself in to begin serving her 15-month sentence at Danbury Federal Correctional Institute, the focus was initially on the family that she was leaving behind. "The Real Housewives of New Jersey's" husband Joe Giudice is now in charge of taking care of their four daughters, something he has never done before, and the media began speculating on Teresa's life without hair extensions and a new chore list. As it turns out, an even bigger problem is plaguing the reality star: an addiction to prescription pills. According to a report by Radar Online, Teresa has been using Xanax and Valium for the last five years, and she has also dabbled with human growth hormones to put muscle on her lean frame. That means she is now experiencing some major detox behind bars. According to the source, Teresa could be afflicted with symptoms for as long as two weeks as everything leaves her body. "Teresa would get things through her friend whose husband is a doctor and two other doctors. It's going to be a [major] detox. I warned her about that. It's going to be hell. It's a cold withdrawal. You just detox. It's a really brutal withdrawal. She'll get sick. She will get diarrhea. She'll have actual DTs [delirium tremens, aka 'the shakes']," said the source.
  • Teresa Giudice's Friends Abandon Her as 'RHONJ' Inches Closer to Being Shelved

    After years of playing people against each other, it looks like Teresa Giudice is the one left in the dust. "The Real Housewives of New Jersey" star has famously manipulated Melissa Gorga, Jacqueline Laurita, Kathy Wakile and basically every other friend or family member whom she has crossed paths with, and now it is Giudice who is alone. After turning herself in to the prison camp in Danbury, Connecticut, that will be her home for the next 13 months, the reality star realized that even before she left no one was reaching out to her. According to a report by Radar Online, in the past these women would have been there for Giudice, in spite of how vicious she has been toward them, but now things are different. They realize that it is time to back away and save themselves from the toxic and even criminal behavior she has brought into their lives. While Giudice is away, it seems Bravo producers are inching closer to shelving "RHONJ," at least until she is released from prison. Like it or not, Giudice has always been the centerpiece of the show, and without her it is just unlikely that enough people are going to tune in to get the ratings to where they would need to be. Needless to say, the rest of the cast wants to believe that they are more than enough to keep the show going. The fact that they might need a shady, admitted criminal to keep them relevant and on television is no doubt a shot to their egos, but it does seem to be the bottom line.
  • Teresa Giudice Called Melissa, Joe Gorga Before Turning Herself In to Blame Them for Her Situation

    For a while it looked like Teresa Giudice might have finally made peace with her brother and sister-in-law, Joe and Melissa Gorga, didn't it? The last season of The Real Housewives of New Jersey showed the formerly estranged family getting along and acting normal. The Gorgas were constantly showing support for Giudice, but in the months since she was sentenced to 15 months in prison, there has been silence. As it turns out, things were not quite as cool as it seemed when they were filming, and in her final weeks of freedom Giudice started blaming everyone for her fate, including the Gorgas. According to a report by Radar Online, Giudice made a number of calls before reporting to prison early Monday morning, Jan. 5, and one of those was to her brother and Melissa: "Teresa called many people the night before she went to prison. Two of the people she called happened to be Melissa and Joe. She was insistent that they were partially to blame for her jail sentence because they came on the Real Housewives of New Jersey and made her look bad. The conversation did end amicably. However, it obviously wasn't a positive thing to have her pointing blame for her legal issues in their direction."
