Danielle Staub Makes Russell Armstrong Suicide All About Herself
In the wake of Russell Armstrong's suicide, numerous past and present members of the Real Housewives family have spoken out, sending their thoughts and prayers to this troubled man's loved ones.
Danielle Staub? She's taken the opportunity to bring the focus back to her and her own painful struggle.
If Danielle Staub needs help, we hope she gets it. Away from the camera and the spotlight.
"I was very close to taking my own life - not just on one occasion," Staub told Entertainment Tonight this week. "And what always saved me was the thought of my children living with that for the rest of their lives. I didn't want them to have that memory of me. I wanted them to remember me - even if I'm going through my struggles - alive."
So, just to read behind the self-serving lines: Danielle Staub is a stronger, more thoughtful person than Russell Armstrong.
Danielle Staub on Heidi Montag: Not Smart!
You asked for it (okay, probably not) and now you've got it. Reality TV's most notorious hair-pulling, table-flipping, prostitution-whoring villain is back.
Danielle Staub is cooking up drama on VH1's Famous Food.
Seven celebs - well, six celebs and one actual prostitute (Ashley Dupre) will battle for an ownership stake in the LA-based Dolce restaurant group.
In a promo for the show, which premieres Sunday, Danielle offers five reasons to watch the series and gets in some quality digs at her co-stars.
Heidi Montag, for one, is "not the sharpest tool in the shed." Which we've known for years, but good to know. Check out Staub's Famous Food promo here:
Danielle Staub: Sued by Strip Club
Danielle Staub has admitted that she needs psychiatric help.
But she may soon need monetary assistance, as well.
The former Real Housewife of New Jersey was paid $25,000 to strip for one night at Scores, an establishment in New York. That venue is now suing the reality star for breach of contract, claiming she reneged on a three-year deal and owes it $375,000.
Telling TMZ this is a "crystal clear breach of contract," a rep from Scores say Staub has not said a word to the club after telling the world she's no longer working for it.
We'll have more on this story as news breaks - and, hopefully, as Staub's clothes remain in.
Danielle Staub: I Need Help!
Danielle Staub is going from the pole to the couch.
A day after naked photos of the reality star stripping at Scores hit the Internet, Staub says she's walked away from that gig and is seeking professional help for problems anchored in childhood sexual abuse.
"I have addictions with love and low self-esteem, and I need help," Danielle tells People. "For years I have had the suicide hotline on my cell phone and would like nothing more than to free myself from this constant pressure."
While we don't doubt Staub has issues and we hope she solves them soon, it's a bit hard to take the former Real Housewife of New Jersey seriously when she's filming a reality show right now with Heidi Montag and Jake Pavelka - and when she says she has "sought out" Dr. Drew for assistance.
Danielle Staub: The Naked Stripper Pics
Danielle Staub has left The Real Housewives of New Jersey, predicted the demise of that franchise and moved on to greener pastures.
Or naked, seedy, degrading pastures, to be more accurate.
The former reality star and current Ray J sex partner has signed a three-year deal with Scores, a strip club in New York. The contract calls for Staub to do one live appearance and occasionally appear on the establishment's website.
Want a sneak peek at (for some reason) at the ex-Real Housewife getting real naked on stage? Read on...
Danielle Staub to The Real Housewives of New Jersey: Good Luck Without Me!
Danielle Staub has taken time out from planning prepping her Ray J sex tape to comment on the upcoming season of her former show.
New episodes of The Real Housewives of New Jersey kick off tonight, but Staub - who exited the series a few months ago - doesn't have high hopes for her ex-castmates.
"It's not going to have the ratings," Staub told E! News. "I brought the [drama]. People either loved me or hated me, but they were paying attention. This [season] is just full out nasty family fighting. Everyone's got that. Where's the element of surprise there?"
Danielle says she won't be watching season three, but there is one thing that would draw her back to the series: "Money, money, money."
Visit THG first thing tomorrow morning for a complete rundown of the craziness that is The Real Housewives of New Jersey.

Danielle Staub and Ray J Sex Tape: Coming Soon?
Move over, William and Kate. Two people truly meant for each other have reportedly come together.
According to Media Takeout, Danielle Staub was caught locking lips with Ray J this week. In the photo posted on the site, Brandy's brother is leaning down to lay one on the former Real Housewife of New Jersey, who responds by raising a champagne glass.
THG's research shows this to be the first time in recorded history that two people with separate sex tapes have found love. (Vomit from Staub's naked images HERE and re-familiarize yourself with Ray's work HERE.)
It's clear this pair is meant for each other. The only question remaining: what will they title they own intercourse video?
Heidi Montag, Jake Pavelka, Ashley Dupre and Danielle Staub Team Up For Reality Show
Who are Danielle Staub, Ashley Dupre, Heidi Montag and Jake Pavelka?
I'll take people who totally need to star in a reality show for $800, Alex.
Yes, this is really happening. The Real Housewives of New Jersey prostitution whore, actual prostitution whore, former Hills star and former Bachelor are filming a show called Cafe Med. They were seen on Sunset Plaza in West Hollywood, Calif.:
The premise for this ridiculousness? They are going into the food business together. Sort of. Cafe Med puts these reality stars under the pressure cooker!
"They are revamping a restaurant from the ground up," says a source on the set of the new VH1 series. "They started shooting it this past weekend."
The cast will be tasked with opening a restaurant in just 28 days.
Not a very long period, that's for sure. It's around the length of time Heidi Montag between plastic surgeries, or that Jake was engaged to Vienna Girardi.

Late last week, Kim Kardashian destroyed every eardrum in Las Vegas with the first rendition of her single "Tune It Up." It was seriously atrocious stuff.
But was it the worst song ever unleashed? That remains to be decided.
Kim has serious competition from an assortment of other reality stars who were convinced the public needed to do more than just watch them recite scripted lines on television. Below, starting with Kardashian's foray into the industry, we've compiled a quintet of truly awful tunes. Listen to each and then vote on the worst of the worst...
