Kathy Wakile and Melissa Gorga: New, Real Housewives of New Jersey

Danielle Staub may be gone, but the drama will still be boiling over every week on The Real Housewives of New Jersey.
The series returns on May 16 with a special 90-minute episode, during which viewers will meet two new cast members, both with connections to Teresa Giudice: Melissa Gorga is the her sister-in-law, while Kathy Wakile is Teresa's cousin.
Bravo has released the first promotional shots of these new stars.

Wakile (right) is married with two children. Her official Bravo profile makes no secret that this is a woman "who loves to party and have a good time."

Gorga, meanwhile, has three kids and is married to a successful real estate developer. You won't believe this, but she does not get along with Giudice at all. Why would Bravo possibly cast her on the show in that case?!?

Dina Manzo to Star in Reality TV Show

Dina Manzo, who left The Real Housewives of New Jersey halfway into season two in order to get away from Danielle Staub, has landed her very own reality show.
We'll give you a few moments to calm down over this exciting news...

In her new HGTV series, Manzo and the rest of her Design Affairs company will put together lavish events inside the houses of their clients' homes. Yes, it's a weekly program centered around rich people throwing parties. It will premiere in September.

Said the network's general manager, Kathleen Finch:"Dina is an accomplished interior designer and also runs a thriving event planning business - her Real Housewives fans will be surprised to see this side of her."

Jersey MORE: MTV Confirms Pauly D, Snooki-JWoww Spinoffs

MTV today announced that the network is set to build upon its smash hit Jersey Shore by giving the green light to TWO spinoffs slated to air in early 2012.
Paul “DJ Pauly D” Delvecchio will get his own series, while Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi and Jenni “JWoww” Farley will team up for the other with 495 Productions.
Both begin production later this year after Jersey Shore Season 4, the filming of which was just pushed back due to permit, contract and scheduling issues.

AWWWW YEAH! Pauly D's got his own show, yeah.

No one has more swagger, one-liners or more distinctive hair than DJ Pauly D. Set to air for 12-episodes, the as-yet-untitled series follows Pauly D’s jet-setting and often hilarious life on the road as one of the country’s most in-demand DJs.
Aiming to become one of the world’s most successful and recognized names in music, viewers will get to see Pauly D chase his dream, with the help of some the best friends he grew up with in Rhode Island by his side.

Meanwhile, viewers will get to see how Snooki and JWoww deal with life and love when the vacation is over in a 12-episode series of the ladies' very own.
Always inseparable and ready to get the party started at the shore, the locale may be different this time, but the friendship is sure to remain the same.
Are you stoked for even more Jersey Shore? Or has it jumped the shark with the announcement of these spinoffs? Or have you always hated it so hard?

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.
