The matriarch of the Manzo’s of New Jersey, and the central character on the Real Housewives of New Jersey , Caroline Manzo made a stunning appearance on “Who Wants to be a Millionaire” earlier today. The woman she was assisting, Nina, made $50,000. Andy Cohen mugged for the camera as a Lifeline, and Sheree Whitfield asked a question. About what? She by Sheree, of course.
LuAnn Countess de Lesseps( her post-divorce “honorary” title) appeared in a magenta dress, looking elegant as always, but her segment will air tomorrow.
The stars of The Real Housewives franchise are briefly leaving their gated communities for a chance to compete for the big million-dollar payout. Next week, from Monday, February 22 to Friday, February 26, some of Bravo’s controversial housewives will be participating on Who Wants to be a Millionaire, the TV quiz show hosted by Meredith Viera.
Don’t expect any hair-pulling or table-flipping drama, though. The Real Housewives of New Jersey stars Caroline Manzo , Dina Manzo ,Jacqueline Laurita and Teresa Giudice , New York stars Kelly Bensimon , LuAnn De Lesseps , Ramona Singer Alex McCord and Jill Zarin , and Atlanta’s Kandi Burruss will all be paired with real housewives from all over the country.
Other housewives who aren’t pairing up with contestants, including The Real Housewives of Orange County ‘s Vicki gunvalson, Jeana Keough, Tamra Barney and Lynne Curtin , New Jersey’s Danielle Staub and Atlanta’s Sheree Whitfield and Lisa Wu Hartwell will be reading the questions.
Also gracing this special housewives-studded edition is Bravo ‘s Andy Cohen exec producer and host of Watch What Happens, who will serve as the expert lifeline via Skype all week.
‘Real Housewives’ Stars Appear on ‘Who Wants to Be a Millionaire’
Real Housewives on “Millionaire”
Actually, it’s oxymoronic to compare Lynne Curtin to Caroline Manzo, since all they have in common is age. Common sense ain’t common, and it’s on a respirator in the Curtin household.
I never write about “Real Kids” under 18, which is why you see no mention of them on my websites. But the powers the be at Bravo are throwing Alexi Curtin in our faces …….and under the bus.
I just don’t understand why the Curtin’s thought they could be friends with their children. When they grow up and are out of your pocket, sure, not before. Alexa’s and Raquel’s problem began long before we met them…they were getting away with stuff for years.
Which does not excuse Alexi from calling her mother a bitch. She seems a little smarter than Raquel ( or Lynne and Frank, for that matter) so she knew what kind of trouble they were in financially, and she couldn’t play it off like the others. To have all your shit air on national TV, at 17. Poor kid.

The Real Housewives of New Jersey may flip tables, they would never do what the White House crashers did last Tuesday.
When USmagazine.com asked the Bravo stars what they thought of Michaele and Tareq Salahi — the fame-seeking couple who successfully made their way past security at a White House state dinner, coming face-to-face with President Barack Obama and Vice President Joe Biden — they were none too pleased.
“It’s a little crazy,” Teresa Giudice told Us at the My Hero Gala in NYC Tuesday. “I wouldn’t go to any place I wasn’t invited to. It’s poor etiquette. It’s not my style.”
The Salahis, who are reportedly aspiring cast members of the upcoming Real Housewives of DC series, have allegedly been shopping their story to networks for hundreds of thousands of dollars, the Associated Press reports.
“There are plenty of ways to get your 15 minutes,” Caroline Manzo told Us. “I thought it was irresponsible — very irresponsible. We are at a time of war and what message does that send to those who want to do us harm?”
Caroline’s younger sister Dina Manzo agrees.
“I don’t care if it’s the White House or your next door neighbor and you’re not invited, you don’t show up,” she told Us. “It’s really not the right thing to do.”
The Secret Service is still considering launching a criminal investigation against the crashing couple. They refused to appear before Congress to answer questions. All the balls in the world..those Salahi’s
