Who is Next Gen NYC star Gia Giudice, daughter of Teresa Giudice from RHONJ? She has a criminal justice degree from Rutgers and has dated Christian Carmichael since 2020
Real Housewives of New Jersey (RHONJ) star Teresa Giudice's mini-me daughter, Gia Giudice, grew up in front of the camera thanks to her mum's role on the reality show. Now, she's taking centre stage as one of the stars of the new Bravo show Next Gen NYC.
Premiering on June 3, the show, according to its press release, 'follows a tangled web of friends raised in the spotlight – or at least close enough for good lighting – as they stumble into adulthood one brunch, break-up and spontaneous decision at a time'. And already in the trailer, Gia seems to be in a heated exchange with another cast member. It looks like viewers are in for a good dose of drama.

With a degree in criminal justice from Rutgers University, the young diva is both beauty and brains. Here's everything we know about Gia Giudice.
She wants to become a lawyer (in time)

In May 2023, Gia graduated from Rutgers University with a criminal justice degree. Proud mama Teresa celebrated her daughter's milestone with an Instagram post: 'I am so proud of my devoted and intelligent daughter, Gia, for graduating [from] a stellar university, a huge milestone to accomplish in life,' she wrote.
In February 2023, Gia landed a job with Kathleen Martínez, an attorney specialising in immigration law, per People. The decision might have been influenced by Gia's father Joe, who was deported to his native Italy in 2019 after he and Teresa were indicted for fraud in 2013.
With the new show, however, it seems that Gia may be putting law school on hold. 'Law will always be my passion, and I'm honestly just having fun right now with my influencer career and just doing things with you guys. So I'm really happy, and I am living out this part of my life right now,' she said.

Colorado firebomb suspect planned attack for a year, prosecutors say as charges laid
An Egyptian national charged with tossing petrol bombs at a pro-Israeli rally in Boulder , Colorado, injuring a dozen people, planned his attack for a year and used Molotov cocktails instead of a gun because his non-citizen status blocked him from buying firearms, prosecutors said on Monday. Advertisement Mohamed Sabry Soliman, 45, told investigators that he wanted to 'kill all Zionist people' but had delayed committing the attack until after his daughter had graduated from high school, according to state and federal court documents charging him with attempted murder, assault and a federal hate crime. Police and FBI affidavits quoted the suspect as saying he took firearms training to obtain a concealed-carry permit but ended up using Molotov cocktails because of his immigration status. Soliman told investigators that he had learned how to make the fire bombs from YouTube. Federal authorities said Soliman was in the country illegally, having overstayed a tourist visa and an expired work permit. Trump administration officials immediately seized on Sunday's violence as an example of why they are cracking down on illegal immigration.

Why Cambodian-American chefs want to share their cuisine and stop talking about the past
Chef Phila Lorn was not necessarily aiming for authentic Cambodian food when he opened Mawn in Philadelphia, the US city where he was born, two years ago. So when he approached some Cambodian teen patrons he braced himself for questioning. Advertisement 'Someone's going to say something like, 'That's not how my mom makes her oxtail soup',' Lorn says. 'So I walk up to the table. I'm like, 'How is everything?' And the kid looks up at me and he goes, 'It doesn't even matter, dude. So glad you're here'.' It was at that moment that Lorn realised Mawn – the phonetic spelling of the Khmer word for 'chicken' – was more than a noodle shop. It meant representation. In June, he will be representing his dual cultures – Cambodian and Philly – at his first James Beard Awards as a nominee for best emerging chef. In the food world, it is akin to getting nominated for the Academy Awards. Phila Lorn and Rachel Lorn opened Mawn restaurant in Philadelphia two years ago. Photo: AP Cambodian restaurants are not as common in the United States as Chinese takeaways or sushi spots. Cambodian food is often lazily lumped in with its Southeast Asian neighbours, despite distinct differences. But in recent years, enterprising Cambodian American chefs have come into their own, introducing traditional dishes or putting their own twist on them. Advertisement Many of them were raised in families who fled the Khmer Rouge's reign of terror, which began 50 years ago and killed about 1.7 million people. Since then, the Cambodian community in the US has grown and put down roots.
