Teresa Giudice might only be making only 12 cents an hour behind bars in the Danbury Federal Correctional Facility, but she may soon bank the big bucks again.

Despite reports indicating that Teresa Giudice was denied early release, she might be on the books for Dancing With the Stars once she gets out!

“She said she was asked to do Dancing With the Stars,” an inmate who was recently released from Danbury reports, without saying if she accepted.

Would DWTS really go there? We know Teresa probably would.

Although her 15-month sentence will postpone her appearance on the show until the fall 2016 edition, she is bringing in the bucks however she can.

An inmate confirmed that Giudice sold her prison photo for a substantial amount:

“She was talking to one woman about it and she said ‘We sold [the photo] for $75,000,’” the inmate claims.

Teresa denies selling the photo because such an activity is illegal. That hasn’t stopped her before…

The insider claims, “’Teresa quickly said, ‘Oh no, we gave it to them.’”

The source adds, “I don’t know how they got away with it."

"She wanted that photo out there, absolutely.”

But Giudice isn’t the only one making money in jail. There are rumors that fellow inmates are trying to snap photos of her. Hey, at least everyone benefits. 

“An inmate did have a phone and was trying to take photos of her,” the source says.

“Someone ratted her out and Teresa was like, ‘They’re taking photos of me doing yoga!’ She was upset about that.”

We don’t blame her, but on the bright side, she’s only got another 8-9 months to go, and plenty of stars who have been to prison have come back strong:
