Teresa Giudice Ditches Interview After News Anchor Asks, ‘How Is It That a Family Doesn't Pay Their Taxes for Years?'
The Queen must not be questioned!
This morning, Real Housewives of New Jersey star Teresa Giudice was on a Zoom interview with WGN in Chicago. All was well, until they asked Tre a question that was too shady for the Jersey diva.
The video from WGN has since been removed from YouTube. Thankfully, Instagram account @nofilterwithzack scooped it up. 'What's going to happen with the reboot of [The Real Housewives of] New Jersey?' the female reporter asked. 'Are you going to be involved in it at all?'
'I hope,' she responded. 'I'm the OG, yes. So we'll see what happens.'
'You'll have to ask Bravo for that,' she added.
Then the male half of the news team (Larry Potash) dropped the bombshell. 'How is it that a family doesn't pay their taxes for years?' he wondered. In call you don't recall, he's referring to that time that Teresa and her ex-husband Joe Giudice didn't pay taxes. Subsequently, they both went to 'camp' for several months.
Teresa pretended to look perplexed as she blinked a few times and asked, 'Um, what family are you talking about?'
'Your family,' Larry said.
After fuming for a few seconds, Tre simply said, 'Okay, I'm done now.' And she turned off her phone. End of interview. That didn't go well.
Actually, I'd kind of like to know the answer to that question, too. I've always been afraid that the IRS would come after me if I so much as made a mistake on my taxes. Further, I'd be terrified to just not even file a return by April 15. It's just part of American life.
Apparently, Teresa didn't learn her lesson with Joe, because she and her second husband Luis Ruelas are also now having tax issues.
The Real Housewives of New Jersey is now streaming on Peacock in the US and on Hayu in the UK and Ireland.
TELL US – DO YOU THINK THE REPORTER'S QUESTION WAS APPROPRIATE? OR WAS IT JUST A 'GOTCHA' MOMENT?

"I like the other tight ends too, but I spent two weeks training with Sam LaPorta, and the way he moves -- oh yeah, he's got the dog in him. He's kind of quirky, he's kind of goofy, too.

Bride slams ‘disrespectful' family for poor wedding guest etiquette: ‘Very hurtful'
This blushing bride was beyond bothered after a guest snubbed her luxurious brunch spread for a bucket of fried chicken — and then rudely boasted about it on social media. Six weeks after the wedding, the newlywed took to Reddit to vent her frustration in the Subreddit r/weddingplanning, and gauge whether or not she was overreacting to the incident. She shared that she had spent eight months 'meticulously' planning the wedding with her husband and parents, and after much deliberation, they opted to celebrate the 'elegant morning ceremony' with a brunch-based reception at a venue well-known for the renowned chef's 'exquisite catering.' 'We hand-selected our menu items months in advance, including shrimp and grits, quiche, a biscuit bar with assorted jellies, sausage, and bacon, chicken and waffles, and much, much more,' wrote the bride in her post, and added that the spread cost the couple $98 per person. She also explained that early on in their relationship, she and her husband started a tradition of enjoying Saturday morning brunch together, so the reception marked their first brunch as a married couple, making it an extra sentimental occasion for the pair. As with just about any wedding, there were a few unpopular family members in attendance. 'My uncle and his wife are in the midst of a rocky separation, and his wife has a history of being rude to and taking advantage of the rest of the family. We were surprised to hear that he was bringing her with him to the wedding about 3 days prior, given the situation, but said nothing about it,' she explained. Apparently, while making the 15-minute drive from the church to the reception venue, the uncle and his wife were feeling peckish, so naturally, they stopped for a few buckets of fried chicken at a fast-food joint. The bride clarified that this wasn't the issue, and in fact, was completely fine with it — it was the wife's actions once she arrived at the venue that truly aggravated her. After entering the reception and evaluating the luxe brunch spread — which the bride clarified had plenty of options to choose from, and was even abundant enough to be sent home as leftovers with the newlyweds — her uncle's wife went back out to the parking lot, 'retrieved the leftover fast food, and then she re-entered the reception hall with it and ate it openly at one of our decorated round tables.' Still, this brazen move wasn't the boiling point for the bride. Apparently, the uncle and his wife took 'pictures of themselves eating the fast food at the table (with the brand packaging all out in the open)' and 'they have now posted those pictures on Facebook on two separate occasions,' leaving the bride and her mother, who played a large role in planning, hurt and offended. To add insult to injury, other family members commented on the chicken contrabandist's posts, writing, 'nothing classier than bringing fast food to a catered wedding!' 'I'm struggling with feeling like I was disrespected on a day that we put so much time, money, energy, and thought into planning, and every time they post about it just digs the knife in deeper,' the bride's Reddit post concluded. 'I don't want to comment on the post or anything because I'm afraid to be seen as overreacting or like a bridezilla, but it's very hurtful.' Though angry brides often take plenty of flak online — take it from this woman who demanded that her toddler flower girls all straighten their hair to match better in photos, or this ultra-specific dress code designated by a judgmental bride-to-be — the comments under this Reddit thread were staunchly on the side of the original poster. 'It's frying me that they ate fried chicken when you literally served fried chicken,' pointed out one punning commenter. 'This makes it obvious to me that she just wanted to make a scene.' 'I personally wouldn't let this one keep me up at night,' advised another. 'She embarrassed herself, not you, and the Facebook post where someone called her out is a perfect example of that. She may have laughed off their comment, but trust me when I say she is the only person who looks bad here.' A majority of the comments commiserated with the bride, and offered their own stories, ranging from a groom who wouldn't eat his own reception food and ordered McDonald's to the venue instead, to a huge group of family members who complained about the wedding menu in advance. 'It sounds like your other guests were judging them harshly too. I'd let other people stand up for you, like that family member, and you get to be the classy bride who rose above it all. Obviously, no one likes this woman, and there's no point in letting her ruin your day!' replied one wise Redditor.

Servers blast parents whose kids make their jobs hell: ‘It's not a McDonald's PlayPlace'
Parents are being served up some serious etiquette lessons. A server says many in the industry dislike when mindless moms and dads dine at restaurants with their unruly kids in tow. But while other patrons may direct their ire at the offspring, many professionals say parents are the ones who should shoulder the blame if their children misbehave. 'Servers don't want to shame families or discourage them from going out to eat,' Alana Fineman, a comedian and server who posts restaurant skits on TikTok, told 'Parents are usually…trying their best.' However, Fineman, who hails from Southern California, says there are some mistakes moms and dads do make in restaurants. 'The phrase, 'The customer is always right' is dying out,' the server dished. Below, the errors that reveal more about the parents than they do about their children. Part of being a kid is making a mess, but when parents leave it to the bussers to clean up, that's when it becomes a problem. 'It's one thing when a baby throws food from his high chair — it's another when kids rip open sugar packets and dump them on the floor or finger-paint with ketchup on the walls,' Fineman said. 'That usually means that a parent is not paying attention or allowing it to happen.' If a kid throws up or there's food all over the walls and floors, it's the busser that cleans it up. Most restaurants don't have the space for children to be running around wildly, which could lead to destruction. If a child runs into a server, broken glass can end up on the floor, food can fall and there's the potential of delayed orders and injuries. 'If you're carrying a tray of five martinis or plates of boiling-hot food and a child runs in front of you, you can drop it on the floor or onto a person,' Fineman said 'Kids shouldn't run through a restaurant — it's not a McDonald's PlayPlace,' she declared. During an incident at her restaurant, there were kids that 'climbed over a fence and onto the street, where they threw rocks onto the dining patio.' While no one got injured, an employee at the restaurant 'did the parenting' and lectured the children. When kids get to a certain age, they're able to express themselves and order their own food. Oftentimes, the parents will say to their child, 'Tell the lady what you want.' And while Fineman mostly finds this kind of conversation 'funny and endearing,' it can sometimes be an issue if the child won't speak for themselves — and the parent persists. 'Every so often, a parent says, 'We're not moving on until you learn to order,'' Fineman explained. 'I can't always be a part of it when I'm really busy.' Typically, picky eaters aren't a problem for servers at restaurants — unless the parent has big expectations, Fineman said. She claimed that some parents will get 'irate' if the restaurant's menu is restrictive or if the chef can't make a very specific meal. 'If it's a slow day, they might be able to…but not every time,' says Fineman. 'There needs to be a contingency plan for what your child can eat.' There's apparently a 'fascinating phenomenon' where parents don't include their children in a reservation, not realizing that they, too, count as guests — even if they'll be using a high chair, taking up the same space as a regular chair. Fineman guessed that perhaps some parents do this to not have to pay automatic gratuity for larger parties, but she believes that most simply don't realize. This could lead to a problem on busy days when the family will ultimately end up waiting longer for a table that can accommodate them. 'There can be an unfortunate domino effect in the restaurant industry,' Fineman said. 'Miscalculating three people can affect the next 45 minutes.'
