Following his client’s confrontation with Teresa Giudice and other Real Housewives of New Jersey on this week’s explosive episode, the attorney for Danielle Staub says he plans on filing a lawsuit.
Along with assault and battery charges, the lawyer says he’ll seek damages for “defamation of character.” To this assertion, Giudice has the following response:
HAHA!
“Don’t make me laugh. I think she’s defamed her own reputation all by herself,” Giudice told Popeater yesterday, clearly referring to Staub’s history of drug use, prostitution, sex tape production and overall lunacy.
Unlike Staub, Giudice is aware that filing a restraining order against a reality TV co-star is more ridiculous than any defense of Mel Gibson.
These women are paid to interact with one another in front of the camera. They don’t just choose to do so – they profit from the confrontations!
“Believe me, if we could get a restraining order against a cast member, Danielle would have had four against her already,” Teresa said. “I never threatened her. She, however, has been on camera threatening me, stalking me and even practicing doing me harm.”
Meanwhile, while viewers may claim to be be disgusted by these women, the ratings say otherwise:
Tuesday’s episode set a record for Bravo, becoming the highest-rated non-finale of the series. A total of 3.29 million fans tuned in.
