A YEAR DOWN THE DRAIN
TMZ.com

Teresa Giudice is harboring serious resentment toward her husband, Joe, for screwing up their finances and screwing her out of her final precious months with her now-deceased mother.

The 'Real Housewives of New Jersey' star told us Wednesday ... although she served her 11.5 month prison sentence without bitching, her mom's death opened up old wounds. Now, Teresa has a different view of Joe's role in the bankruptcy fraud that landed them both behind bars.

Mind you, Joe's still serving his 41-month sentence, but it sounds like Teresa's having a hard time forgiving him.

As for whether she's waiting around for Joe until his 2019 release? Her answer might surprise you.

Kenya Moore Barred from 'RHOA' Cast Trip

Kenya Moore's husband is still MIA for the filming of "The Real Housewives of Atlanta," and it's cost her a lot of moola, a trip to Spain and maybe her gig itself.

'RHOA' production sources tell us, the cast is on its annual trip for the show -- this time in Barcelona -- except for Kenya. We're told she was invited initially and in the lead up to the trip even participated in scenes where the cast was talking about it. But then ... producers yanked her invite.

Why? Our sources say Bravo told Kenya she needed to film scenes leading up to the trip with hubby Marc Daly, but he wasn't down. Producers felt she was just making more excuses for Marc's lack of participation, so the invite got yanked.

'Housewives' get paid per episode, and now Kenya will miss out on some big paychecks.

As we reported ... producers gave Kenya an ultimatum -- get your hubby on 'RHOA' or get phased out. It seems the latter is happening.

'Real Housewives' We Want Back In ... In Florida

The 'Real Housewives' are headed back to the Sunshine State, but it won't be to Miami.

TMZ has learned that Bravo has already hired casting directors for a new franchise in Florida, but they aren't set on a location. West Pam Beach, Fort Lauderdale and Boca Raton are all on the table.

What Bravo's looking for is drama and they'll go wherever they can find good storylines. Miami had a 3-season run and produced household names like Joanna Krupa and Larsa Pippen, but the ratings were terrible.

Fact is ... Miami really is an attractive option, what with South Beach. But in the Housewives world, the city is tainted, so it's off to greener pastures, or intracoastals.

'Real Housewives of Atlanta' 'Top Model' Eva Marcille I'm A Part-Time 'Housewife'

"America's Next Top Model" winner Eva Marcille has a real chance of joining next season's cast of 'Real Housewives of Atlanta' because she's already stirring the pot with a few cameos.

'RHOA' is currently filming season 10. Our production sources tell us Eva shot with the cast last Friday at an event for Kandi Burruss and she did so well, they've made her a part-time cast member.

We're told Eva's able to throw shade with the best of them but can also put on a smile for the ladies when she needs to. Producers hope her on-cam success continues so they can bring her on full-time for season 11.

As we reported ... Eva's already filmed a few scenes with NeNe Leakes.

It's unclear who, if anyone, she'd replace next year ... but one thing is for sure ... those Housewives are ruthless.

IT'S O.K. TO BE GAY!!!
TMZ.com

'Real Housewives' star Vicki Gunvalson isn't doing a damn thing to shut down the rumor that's become a big thing on the show ... that Tamra Judge's husband, Eddie, might be gay.

The "OG from the OC" caught some heat this season when Tamra found out Vicki and other cast members were insinuating Eddie had made out with a man years ago. Vicki told us Tamra's got no one to blame but herself for this coming up on the show.

As for her real feelings about Eddie and the rumors -- Vicki had a very interesting/telling answer.

NO COMPARISON
TMZ.com

Sisters Amelia and Delilah Hamlin -- their parents are Harry Hamlin and Lisa Rinna -- have things in common with Bella and Gigi Hadid that go beyond their blonde and brunette hair, but the gals say there's absolutely no competition.

The sisters have been getting compared a lot ... both their moms are 'Real Housewives of Beverly Hills' stars and they model. In fact when we got the Hamlins -- Amelia, 16, the brunette, and Delilah, 19, the blonde -- at LAX Thursday they were off to Milan for fashion week.

They were super cool when we asked about the comparisons, and while Amelia's hoping to follow Gigi and Bella's footsteps on the runway, Delilah points out she's got aspirations that set her apart from the Hadids.

Mohamed Hadid A Star is Born!!! Big Screen Debut as Travolta's Co-Star

Gigi and Bella can have modeling ... their pops, Mohamed Hadid, is busting into movies, and the way he managed to land a debut opposite John Travolta is a classic Hollywood tale.

"The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" alum had never done any scripted acting, but that changed last year when Mohamed was "discovered" while eating at Il Pastaio in Bev Hills, of course.

Sources close to Hadid tell us ... "The Merchant of Venice" producer Andrea Iervolino was eating at a table next to Mohamed and noticed a magnetic guy with charisma -- but had no idea who he was. He asked an employee for an introduction, then dropped the classic "you oughta be in pictures" line.

We're told Andrea asked Mohamed to be in his next film, "Trading Paint," starring Travolta and Michael Madsen. They've been filming in Alabama and Mohamed has a handful of scenes playing a rich client of Madsen's character.

It's not out until 2018, but we're told Iervolino thinks Mohamed's a natural and wants to hire him again.

Gigi who?

NeNe Leakes Sorry, Jennifer Lawrence ... You Don't Call The Shots in Atlanta

DOES IT LOOK LIKE I CARE?
TMZ.com

NeNe Leakes isn't afraid of Jennifer Lawrence giving her two cents on who should be fired from 'Housewives' ... in fact, she says when it comes to Atlanta, the actress has no pull at all.

You'll remember -- Andy Cohen told us Lawrence is an enthusiast of the popular show -- even advising him on who to fire. However, when we spoke to NeNe at LAX Thursday she made one thing clear, J Law certainly isn't calling any employment shots.

Leakes didn't totally turn the cold shoulder on Jennifer though -- saying she'd be open to the possibility of working with her in Hollywood one day -- just don't ask her what her favorite Lawrence movie is.

The shade ...

TMZ.com

Jennifer Lawrence's self-appointed producer role on the 'Real Housewives' franchise is just that, according to the franchise's honcho Andy Cohen.

We got Andy at LAX Wednesday where he called J. Law more of a 'Housewives' enthusiast than anything else. She told Jimmy Fallon on 'The Tonight Show,'  she gives Andy "a lot of advice" on the series.

Andy says it's true, although it sounds like it's more than just friendly suggestions.

In fact, his description of Jennifer's influence makes us think Lisa, Kyle, Bethenny, Ramona, Sonja, Phaedra, Kenya, Vicki and the rest of 'em ... might want to start kissing her ass.

Scottie Pippen & Larsa Marriage Back On ... Move to L.A. Together

RIDIN' TOGETHER
TMZSports.com

Scottie Pippen is back with his wife Larsa -- and they just moved to L.A. as a family to "figure things out" ... TMZ Sports has learned.

In fact, the two are already having couples outings in Beverly Hills -- where they got his and her manicures on Monday. Doesn't get more "together" than that.

Here's the deal ... it's been almost a year since Scottie filed divorce docs after 19 years of marriage. Since then, the two have been on-again, off-again in an effort to work things out.

It seemed things were finally dunzo in April when they mutually decided to move forward with the divorce -- but once again, things changed.

The two recently moved the family from Miami to L.A. -- in part due to the fact their basketball star son Scotty has transferred to Sierra Canyon, one of the top basketball programs in the country.

Fun Fact: Kenyon Martin's son also hoops at S.C. and it's also where the country's #1 high school player, Marvin Bagley, played ball.

We're told both Scottie and Larsa are really trying to make things work this time around.

Good luck!

Joanna Krupa Baring Ass & More For Lions, Tigers and Bears

Joanna Krupa definitely knows how to get her point across -- place said point on a sign next to her naked ass cheeks. Works every time.

Joanna took her stand against circuses holding animals captive by getting an elaborate tiger body paint job ... and posing in front of the Houses of Parliament in London. Politicians over there are considering a bill to ban wild animal circuses.

We're pretty sure the Members of Parliament will absolutely take notice ... of Joanna.

We can hear the debate in the House of Lords now: "Tiger?? We barely know her!"

Danielle Staub 'Racist' Rant Pisses Off 'RHONJ' Cast ... They Want Her Gone!!!

Some of the 'Real Housewives of New Jersey' want Danielle Staub edited out of the new season because they just found out about a racist rant she went on years ago ... TMZ has learned.

Cast members are demanding a meeting with producers after someone on the crew pointed out the audio footage existed. The audio recording is reportedly from a fight Danielle had with an ex-bf in 2015. She can be heard calling him a "stupid f***ing Mexican." She also dropped the n-word several times.

Danielle was not on 'RHONJ' at the time of that recording ... she left after season 2. But here's the dilemma -- she's back now for season 8, which has already wrapped, and we're told she has an enormous amount of airtime. Cutting around her would be no simple task for producers.

Still, now that they know about Danielle's rant ... we're told several cast members are disgusted they shot scenes with her. They're worried it will hurt their reputations and the show's ratings.

CATCHIN' THE HOLY SPIRIT
TMZ.com

Phaedra Parks channeled her inner Whoopi Goldberg and rocked her little heart out in the house of worship.

The 'RHOA' star hit up the Atlanta Dream Center for a Friday night service that also doubled as the album release party for her friend and gospel singer, Tasha Cobbs Leonard ... who, btw, is taking heat from the gospel community for featuring Nicki Minaj in one of her tracks.

More than 500 people packed the center, many of whom got down to the holy rhythm. Phaedra was there with friends and is clearly washed over by the Holy Spirit.

Don't fight the feeling ...

Lisa Vanderpump No Tomfoolery Opening Restaurant with 'VR' Stars

Lisa Vanderpump is expanding her empire, and she's counting on a couple of Toms to make it happen.

Our "Vanderpump Rules" production sources tell us ... the groundwork's been laid for Lisa to open up a new dining spot in West Hollywood, the same block on which SUR and PUMP sit. We're told she's enlisted fellow show stars Tom Sandoval and Tom Schwartz to help out.

It's interesting -- the Toms are best buds and tossed out the idea of opening a joint with Lisa last season called Tom & Tom ... and it looks like she's making their dream come true.

Our sources say the plan is to open the new restaurant in November ... right around the same time the new season of 'VR' debuts.

We're told Lisa's still working on a possible deal with Sandoval and Schwartz regarding ownership and management.

Joanna Krupa Breaks Bread W/ Ex Hours After Divorce is Final

How does Joanna Krupa celebrate her divorce becoming final? Dinner with her ex, of course!

The model and her ex, Romain Zago, were in the mood for some Thai and hit up NaiYaRa restaurant in Miami, just hours after finalizing their divorce. Some very close friends were also in tow for what we're told was essentially a farewell toast to their 4-year marriage.

Joanna and Romain remain friends -- their drama-free divorce is proof of that. We're told they may also be business partners down the road because they discussed as much over dinner.

And how friendly are they really, ya might ask? Romain picked up the entire tab.

Kim Zolciak Surprises Son with Puppy ... 3 Months After Dog Attack

Kim Zolciak's adamant her son's not terrified of dogs 3 months after he was attacked by one ... and that's why she got him one for his birthday.

Sources close to the 'RHOA' star tell TMZ ... Kim and the family recently fostered 3 puppies from a pitt lab mix litter of 9 while they searched for their forever homes. The fam kept one puppy, Sage, but as Kash's 5th birthday approached, Kim surprised him with Sage's puppy bro, Sailor.

Kim insists Kash is not scared of dogs and he has no recurring issues following May's attack. As we reported ... a dog bit Kash in the face which required surgery. Kim said Kash healed up fine and has perfect vision in his left eye ... even after getting stitches on his water line.

And despite all that ... we're told Kash remains an animal lover.
