Danielle Staub

She's already a Celebrity of the Year Finalist, but Danielle Staub craves more.

The former Real Housewife of New Jersey is in the process of filming Social, the most ridiculous concept for a reality TV show since whatever aired on E! last night.

On the upcoming WealthTV program, Staub will act like a modern day Robin Leach and give viewers a look into the luxurious lifestyles of the extravagantly rich. Because, let's face it, who doesn't want to watch a former drug-dealing call girl hanging out with a slew of spoiled billionaires?

Check out the following behind-the-scenes video of Danielle visiting record producer Prince Malik. This nauseating series makes Bridalplasty look like an Emmy winner...

Danielle Staub Reality Show: Behind the Scenes

The celebrity sex tape. It's become as common as a Lindsay Lohan trip to rehab.

As has been the case ever since Paris Hilton experimented with a camera and a dream, 2010 was yet another year filled with aspiring amateur porn stars, all of whom used the power of their genitalia to make headlines and increase bank accounts.

Below, we present the first-ever THG Sex Tape Awards, handed out to the real, the rumored and the downright disgusting...

Most Despicable: The year kicked off with a rumor that John Edwards actually filmed a sexual encounter with Rielle Hunter. We scoffed at first, but it was then proven true. Horribly, depressingly, incomprehensibly true.

Most Likely to Involve Roses, Drama: Bachelor castoff Rozlyn Papa was kicked off the show for fondling a producer. No surprise that she likes it in front of a camera.

Least Clothed Use of Performance Enhancement Drugs: Mindy McCready, Baseball Mistress.

With 2010 drawing to a close, it is with much pride that THG unveils its 10 finalists for its prestigious, Fourth Annual Celebrity of the Year award.

These stars all gave us their best, their worst, their nude pics (sometimes) and their scandals (often). This month, THG honors that greatness. Following the posthumous ranking of Michael Jackson, we present Celebrity of the Year finalist #9...

... Danielle Staub!

It's important to get something straight, of course: we despise Staub. She's the epitome of everything that's wrong in our celebrity-obsessed culture.

Talentless, promiscuous and attention-starved, Danielle is solely famous because she has no shame. She'll do anything for publicity. But it cannot be argued that this strategy has made her a major player in the gossip game throughout 2010.

We all know Danielle Staub is an expert at getting naked. But telling the truth? That's another story.

Following a successful defamation of character lawsuit against this reality star - in which Staub settled the day before she was scheduled to be deposed - Kevin Maher is at it again.

The ex-husband of this former drug-dealing call girl has filed a lawsuit against publishing company Simon & Schuster, claiming it knowingly published false information about him in Staub's new memoir "The Naked Truth."

In documents filed last week, Maher states Simon & Schuster, "failed to use reasonable care to determine the truth or falsity" of allegations Staub brings against him in the book.

Notably, he takes issue with Staub's assertion that Maher beat her so badly, she had to be hospitalized for a concussion and "assorted contusions." Maher tells TMZ he's asking for $10 million in damages.

We're asking both of these people to go away forever, but we're unlikely to get our wish.

In July, we asked whether Lori Michaels was the girlfriend or the publicity pawn of Danielle Staub. Turns out, the answer lies somewhere in between.

Sources tell Radar Online that the insane former Real Housewife and the openly gay singer were never an official item - but they did get "physical" together (yech!) and they did have a "connection."

"Lori was never going to put herself in a place where she was going to run away with Danielle," says the insider. "It became a complicated relationship."

Interesting. Tell us more, anonymous source!

"Lori doesn't do crazy. It's been a series of things. The truth is they both tried to make the relationship work on many levels... Danielle does her thing and Lori does hers. Lori appreciates the goodness when Danielle was able to give it, and I'm sure she appreciates what Lori has done."

Forget those gay teens who have recently committed suicide due to extreme bullying from classmates.

Danielle Staub says she deserves your sympathy because she took so much abuse from cast members on The Real Housewives of New Jersey.

“The way they treated me was bullying and it was hate,” Staub told TooFab. “I have to say shame on [Bravo.] Shame on you for not dropping the cameras when I was being bullied. I was hiding from [my castmates], and then I’m physically attacked. Being attacked and having hate done unto you is a crime... It was horrifying."

The slight difference, of course, is that a gay people are bullied simply because they are attracted to certain body parts.

Staub was bullied as part of a scripted reality show because she is a former drug dealing liar who falsely accused her ex-husband of rape.

Danielle Staub has narrowly avoided the worst day of her life.

The psychotic reality star has reached a settlement with ex-husband Kevin Maher, the day before she was scheduled to be deposed as part of Maher's defamation suit against allegations that he played Russian Roulette inside Staub's vagina and murdered her dog.

In anticipation of Staub answering questions under oath about these accusations, Maher had told the world he would destroy Danielle on October 5. Instead, he just took her money quietly.

The terms of the settlement are confidential, but a source confirms that cash was involved, while Maher told TMZ:

"The matter was resolved to the satisfaction of both parties... It's interesting that the case gets settled the day before Danielle was supposed to be deposed... it was going to be the worst day of her life."

When you're someone like Danielle Staub, isn't everyday the worst day of your life?

She's a prostitute, she's a porn star, and she's also the mother of two. - Kevin Maher on ex-wife Danielle Staub

On her upcoming WealthTV show, Danielle Staub will take viewers into the lives of the ultra rich and famous. But, in reality, no series could possibly be any more interesting than the life of Staub herself.

The former Real Housewife of New Jersey is being sued by ex-husband Kevin Maher because he's upset she accused him of rape and other evil deeds. In an interview with E! News, Maher said October 5 will be Danielle's day of reckoning, as her court-mandated deposition will expose the truth about this "pathological liar."

Now, Maher is saying A LOT more about his ex.

"It's not safe being around her," he told that same network, referring to the fact that Staub turned on a member of a Colombian drug cartel. "She's a very dangerous woman. I am of the belief that she will get murdered."

We're just a couple weeks away from the day of reckoning for Danielle Staub.

So promises Kevin Maher, this reality star's ex-husband who has sued her for defamation of character because Staub has accused him of such acts as raping her on a bed of broken glass and sticking a loaded gun up her vagina.

Following Staub's hilarious motion in a pre-trial hearing on Tuesday - where she asked a judge to exclude "any evidence that the Defendant was a prostitute, or a stripper, or is promiscuous, or has been featured in sex tapes" - Maher has fired back and let the world know just what he plans to expose about this certified nut job.

"Since this woman put these serious rape and molestation charges against me, [information about her past] is relevant... What this woman has done to me... I can't even describe how she has ruined my life. She's without conscience," Maher told E! News.

But with her very own new series, sadly.

Caroline Manzo hates Danielle Staub. Don't we all.

Until now, we've never heard her explain how she feels in this kind of detail, however. In a recent court deposition for Staub's legal war with her ex-husband Kevin Maher, her Real Housewives co-star Caroline tore her a new one.

TMZ's new footage of the Jersey housewife absolutely berating Staub, who she calls a "deranged, pathological liar, sociopath, con artist" is classic.

Kevin Maher is demanding $10 million for alleged defamation by Danielle, and Manzo was testifying before the court. Let's just say she didn't hold back.

Caroline Manzo claims Staub told stories about her alleged abusive past with Maher - including situations in which Maher allegedly raped Staub on broken glass, killed her dog and "inserted a pistol up her vagina" to play Russian Roulette.

Manzo sarcastically muses if those events all took place simultaneously. Staub has claimed Maher has "no evidence" she made those remarks ... sure.

Later, when asked about Staub's "propensity for truthfulness," Manzo unloads. It's worth following the link to watch the three-minute clip, trust us.
