'Real Housewife': Sunny-Side Up

Wearing a perky red bikini, "Real Housewives of New York" star Bethenny Frankel soaked her skinny girl bones in the sun while out on Long Island yesterday.

If the 38-year-old -- and her fellow "RHONY" cast mates -- don't resolve their salary disputes for the show's next season, she'll have even more time to work on her tan.

Sometimes a Popsicle Is Just a Popsicle

Sucking down a Popsicle can be risky business -- especially with a photog around. But "Real Housewives of New York's" Bethenny Frankel knows how to do it right -- aka corncobbin' it -- because clearly she's all about class.

'NJ Housewife' -- Reality Show Good, Sex Tape Bad

"Real Housewives of New Jersey" star Danielle Staub has no problem putting the most intimate moments of her life on display for the world to see -- except for when she's getting intimate.

Staub is trying to block the release of a sex tape her former boyfriend is trying to sell. Her lawyer filed a complaint today in Passaic County Superior Court alleging Stephen Zalewski, who also appeared on the reality show, invaded her privacy and has caused her and her young daughters emotional distress.

Also causing Staub's young children emotional distress -- seeing their mother on "Real Housewives of New Jersey."

Zalewski told Star magazine, "I'm definitely weighing my options as far as selling [the tapes] and getting them out there ... She cost me so much money, why shouldn't I make a few dollars?"

UPDATE -- Staub won round one. A judge granted a temporary injunction against the tape. The order could become permanent at a hearing next month.

Outside court today, Bensimon claimed she was only protecting her family and "justice was served" -- but inside, the judge ruled that while Kelly can contact her ex, she can't harm or threaten him in any way.

Kelly's misdemeanor assault charges will be wiped clean if she completes her service and keeps out of trouble for a year.

'Real Housewife' -- Real Small Paycheck

Real Housewife of Orange County Lauri Waring is demanding more cash from her ex husband -- and it's probably because she claims to only make 400 bucks a month.

In legal papers filed in Orange County Superior Court, Waring claims she has over $12,000 in expenses per month, and the money she's already getting from Phillip Waring just ain't cuttin' it.

Lauri claims she's tryin' to help out, stating in the docs that she's working two jobs -- insurance agent and actress. Yeah, actress. Right.

BTW -- Lauri estimates Phil pulls in around $360,000 a year.

UPDATE: We just talked to Lauri, who gave us a completely different side to this story. Lauri says her ex is the one trying to modify how much money she's getting -- not her -- meaning he doesn't wanna pay her at all any more. She says because of this, she had to turn in an expense report -- which is the document that said she only makes 400 bones a month.

'Real Housewives' to Invade, Exploit Beverly Hills

The producers behind the "Real Housewives" shows are hunting for their next attention-whoring lineup of women to cash in on -- and this time they're setting their sights on Beverly Hills.

TMZ has stumbled upon a brand new casting ad saying:

"Bravo is looking for outgoing, exciting, strong, focused women who reside in and around the Beverly Hills area that want to share their lives.

"We are looking for women who are lively and energetic, with defined opinions and views. Our featured women should have busy lives, be involved with the community, have a strong work ethic, and an active social calendar."

Translation -- They want some unbeweaveably crazy, catty, standoffish quasi-rich chicks who are willing to drum up enough faux-drama to keep people glued to their TVs. It's Bev. Hills, people... they shouldn't have too much trouble.

O.C. 'Housewife' Fights Dirty Over Topless Pic

The bell has rung and the gloves are off for Round Two of Gretchen Rossi vs TheDirty.com -- and this time it's over a topless photo instead of compromising bathroom pics.

TheDirty posted a photo yesterday of the "Real Housewives of Orange County" star riding topless in the passenger seat of a car -- and now Gretchen has tagged the Costa Mesa Police Department in to join her in the fight against the website.

We've obtained a letter the CMPD fired over to TheDirty's lawyers, saying they've now launched an investigation over the origins of the photos -- which still remain on the site.

It's the most "real life" drama Rossi has ever been a part of.
