Love your wit. Kind of reminds me a little of Bethenny. I like friends that I know where they stand. I don't need anyone to pull knives out of my back that way. : )

Tamra...
YOU say it LIKE it is..
Keep on Keepin' on!
I wasn't The LEAST bit Offended By The comments About "The M.O.B."!!!(like some of You we're) I Busted out Laughing...Truth HURTS some People...Who The Hell Carries around CASH In this day and age??? So Surprised "BRAVO" didn't TAPE her(teresa) Going to THE LAUNDRY MAT! I'm ashamed of you BRAVO!
Tamra, When you said "The Nanny"(Teresa)I again Busted out laughing..I KNEW THAT VOICE REMINDED ME OF SOMEONE!Thank You for pointing that one out!
Love You Tamra...
KEEP BLOGGING GURL!

Hahaha Tamra you are hilarious!!!!

Tamra, you're hilarious. You said exactly what I was thinking. OC is my favorite franchise. NJ is funny, but I have to say the sisters really annoy me. Dina seems to be preening for the camera. NJ accents don't bother me, but for some reason the NY accents get on my nerves. Bethenny, Jill and Ramona sound like scratches on a chalkboard. I can't take it. Bring back OC!

Love the Housewives! I am a viewer to all shows.

I don't understand why you think it's your place to be so rude to everyone! Women like you make me sick! You're two faced and ignorant! Before you say things about others you should take a hard look at yourself! You're such a wonderful role model to your children, hopefully their Dad has sense unlike you!

TAMRA BY READING YOUR BLOGS IT JUST PROVES MY POINT THAT YOU SEEM TO GET JEALOUS OF EVERYONE...GRETCHEN WAS WAY BETTER THAN YOU!!! AND YOU JUST NEED TO ACT YOUR AGE...SERIOUSLY YOU ARE GETTING OLD FOR THESE THINGS...I LOVE TERESA, DINA, CAROLINE, AND JACQUELINE...AND THERE IS NO NEED TO BE JEALOUS FOR WHAT THEY HAVE AND YOU DON'T. SERIOUSLY START TAKING CARE OF YOURSELF..BECAUSE BELIEVE ME YOU GOT ALOT OF WORK TO DO INSIDE AND OUT!!!

wow i never would have thought that my home orange county would hold some ignorant, non open-minded ppl i mean to really think that becuz teresa's husband is an enterprenuer that makes him out to be in the MOB who the hell are u to talk ur husband quit his job...and looks like an old perv u judge ppl? u consider urself the hottest housewive i think more like biggest trainwreck u didnt even know ur son got some girl pregnant, u are the biggest white trash i have ever seen in orange county i wouldnt be shocked if ur pervy husband was banging the babysitter while ur out getting ur botox and blowing up ur boobs so ur husband sticks around

I actually had to laugh out loud - SERIOUSLY - at the comments to this blog.

" Your a mean nasty and deeply ignorant woman...I only read your blog because I knew you would make an inappropriate remark about Italian-Americans. You are vile."

Hysterical. Please tell us what you know Tamra is going to do next so we can give you a little more credit.

You are AWESOME! Funny too!
Don't ever change! I understand how some people may not "get" you but I DO!
Keep on Rocking ya' hot mamma you!

These are REAL WOMEN that exist in New Jersey....Guess what....there are women just like these women who are Jewish, or Polish, Or German, or any number of ethnicities! How dare you make a comment like that! I realize what Bravo was getting at by casting a predominantly Italian-American cast but just because that man clearly needed to flash his money around to feel like a big shot doesn't mean that he is in the mob! And yes, construction businesses in NJ can be successful! even in a recession! Have you even been to Jersey? You are vapid.

Tamra,
On behalf of the Jersey girls and guys, I'm offended by you. Do you know what profiling is? Judge not, girl.
I'm still unhappy with you for being mean to Gretchen. I was hoping you'd leave OC, actually, because I cringe when you say mean things. And here you still are, saying mean things about people a continent away from you. This is the last time I'll read your venom, I mean blog.

WOW! NOW WE KNOW WHICH OF THE OC HOUSEWIVES HAS NOTHING TO DO ALL DAY! TAMRA THE SNOB! UR THAT BORED...U LITERALLY HAD TIME TO ANALYZE EACH OF THE NEW JERSEYS WIFES LIFESTYLE AND WRITE BOUT IT? LOL! OMG! YOU SOOOO HAVE TO GET A LIFE AND STOP BEING SUCH A HATER JUST CUZ THEY LIVE A WAY BETTER LIFE THAN U! UR SO PATHETIC AND IGNORANT.....XOXO

Tamra, I really hated the "I'm so hot" stuff on the OC season but I must say after reading your blogs, I think you are a real cool chick...someone I would love to have margarita's with!

Seriously it's a toss up between you and Bethenny as to who is my favorite blogger--you're both so honest and I LOVE it.

Keep blogging and I'll come back to read it every week!!

Tamra,
I (in the words of Theresa...) LOVE LOVE LOVE your blog!!! I always save it for last when reading it because I always get a good laugh from it! I think your witty and sharp and have some of the best one liners (you and bethenny should go head to head sometime). I don't always agree with everything you say but I love the way you say it!
You were by far my favorite housewife on RHOC. And for everyone leaving nasty comments here i have to ask...if you don't like tamra's blog then why are you reading it?!?!

Honestly,
Each housewife group is picked for a certain reason. Teresa shouldn't be flashing all that cash around-has the IRS contacted your husband yet? I never watched the Atlanta group. It appeared to be a big turn-off for me, watching clips, so I never paid any attention. I think the NYC Housewives are the ones that really rock it. Yes, there is money, back talking, nonsense but they have an air of class to them that cannot be matched by any of the other groups. I own a home in a very prominent area in NJ but I do not act like that and I do not come from Jersey or live there full time. My NJ girlfriends are well-educated, indulgent but not to excess-including to their kids/spouses/b/f's. And I would bet that most of make more money than money then what is shown on Bravo. I do not really watch the Millionaire Matchmaker often but when I do, it's to watch Patti in action. She calls it like she see's it. She once made the comment, while combing over a group of girls, some of who were educated either at an Ivy League institution on the EC or came from the EC, and that how you could tell a difference between East Coast and West Coast women. East Coast women are more refined for the most part due to education and placing intelligence, looks in a completely different category. Unfortunately, sans Caroline's son who is attending Fordham-good for you!!! And Caroline must be doing something right because her kids seem to be more well-adjusted, even the "uneducated" one. And families can be "thick as thieves" regardless of one's nationality. I think it's too soon to judge this new group of housewives fully. Although, aside from Caroline, I don't have much of an interest. Reality tv is reality tv. You get watch you pay for, I suppose.

Your disparaging remarks about Italian Americans just demonstrates your ignorance. Your remarks are not clever or funny, there just plain stupid and vicious. You referred to Caroline as an "enabler". I find that statement full of irony from a woman who raised a wastrel son that would prey on an inebriated woman you personally invited to your home. You are nothing more than a “near do well” pretender. A fake in the highest order. Your not even worth the effort I’m expending to post this message.

MOB Money!! That's exactly what I thought when Theresa wanted to pay for all that stuff in cash. I think in an upcoming episode Joe pulls out another fat wad of cash. I don't know... I think he's a nice guy but he's probably connected!

I have a bit of an issue with everyone piling on Danielle. She's sad and pathetic and needs a therapist much more than friends like those on the show.

Waiting for the OC to come back to Bravo!!!

With your gutter mouth and vindictive ways, you should move to Jersy. You and Danielle could make your own show called Housewives with no friends.

Tamra-you are my favorite house wife! I loved your blog!! Why do so many people take life to seriously?!? You were obviously just being funny and anyone who watches OC gets your sense of humor. All the people on here who are just soooo offended. Come on. Italians are favored in these states that are united. I always date italian men and none of them would find this insulting. I am German and if someone made a sterotypical comment to me I would laugh at it and make one of my own. Come on people. Lighten up. Its reality TV after all.

Tamra, Right on! Glad I'm not the only one to see through the BS. I think there is more to Jacqueline than Jacqueline is comfortable admitting to. I guess there always has to be one man out, and RHNJ has Danielle. Can't wait to see the next season of RHOC!

Great blog! Very funny. Who pays cash for items that cost 120k? I don't think that was racist at all, you're just making an observation. #1 We are in a recession, a construction company could not be doing that well in NJ
#2 To carry cash for all of your spending purposes is ridiculous!
#3 Generally speaking most money is washed through companies like this, cmon they had two office employees

Dina, just irritates me, her voice and snobbish ways are annoying.

Not sold on her sister either, she plays the "thick as thieves" thing too far. Way over the top!

Jacqueline-no comment except stay on your daughters ass! She is a gorgeous girl and needs to have a clear sense of direction.

Danielle-give the woman a break, shes in a bad transitional period. She does make poor choices when dating men though.

Teresa just bugs me with those spoiled little girls who are going to drive her nuts when they grow up. Please instill some values, and people why are you promoting this behavior? Her kids are beautiful, but that does not warrant spoiling them beyond belief. Shopping twice a week? C,mon!!!

All in all the worst Real Housewives yet!

Why doesn't Bravo do a show in Dallas, seriously? COME TO DALLAS PLEASE. Why not toss it up too? You know some Black women, Latina women, and White women? You can cast my mom and some of her friends. :)

Oh, come on, People!! I have lived in NJ my whole life and I was not offended by Tamra's comments. It's a stereotype...just like the Botox and tanning of the OC wives. Bravo set up the premise by choosing women with husbands who are Italian, have jobs in construction, etc., paying with cash, tight knit family, etc. Tamra did not say anything that all of America wasn't already stereotyping with this crew?? We all watched the Sopranos and Bravo chose this family that mirrored this lifestyle. NOT all of NJ fits this at all. but, they did it for the drama.Tamra is just commenting on what mist of America thought when seeing this scenario.

Tamra u are awesome. I thought i was the only one to notice those things. Mob?? I would say 99% looks like it. Danielle pisses me off. HAHA Thats it!!

Well our Tamra hasn't softened at all. Still mean and nasty. The mob comments were uncalled for. You will never learn. I have to say you should honestly move over there to New Jersey because you and Dina were made for each other. Both ultra snobs and both trouble makers.

Does Bravo pay you extra money to stir things up??

reading your blog just made me realize how much i don't miss watching you on the orange county version.

Very funny Tamra...hilarious!

LOL
You rock!

Your a mean nasty and deeply ignorant woman...I only read your blog because I knew you would make an inappropriate remark about Italian-Americans. You are vile.

Tamra, you should proof your work before posting. Otherwise, I enjoyed your blog entry.

Someone posted earlier that the lifestyle portrayed on the show is inauthentic. Every state has its good parts and bad; the previous statement includes New Jersey. The wealth and lifestyle are real. Some people have money like that. Money is not limited to geographical borders, so why couldn't NJ have its fair share of millionaires, billionaires who would lead an indulgent and arguably leisurely lifestyle as one would in Los Angeles or New York, per se? Do the women and their families on The Real Housewives of New Jersey represent high class or high society individuals with money? NO, not by any means. Does that preclude the rest of NJ residents from being classy, just as classless, or worse? No. Further, the neighborhood they live in is real. And, unbeknownst to many US residents that have only experienced the NJ Turnpike, New Jersey is in fact the Garden State not because it's called that but because we have great land, estates, parks and attractions. NJ's inhabitants may come from any extreme of the socio-economic spectrum, as one would expect from in any other state.

For those wondering, yes, I was raised in NJ and love it.

Honestly???
I think its funny that you talk about the Jersey Wives like that.
I attribute your plot/story line to me having to force myself to watch the last episodes of Orange County...ugh!!!

Your comments are harsh(and hurtful) and a waste of time...
New Jersey is great so far!!!!but nothing can beat NY

Love your comments! Totally true! can't wait until you guys are back! I really hope Gretchen isn't on the show though!

Tamra,
Who are you to put the housewives of New Jersey down? You behaved badly on the housewives of OC and you are continuing to show your bad side. I know what your motives are. You want to be the one to be remembered no matter what it takes. You will be remembered but not in a positive way.

tamra im not with you oc is good but you are some whinning chicks who just shop and spend money all day get a real job

WOW!!! what a mean comment about the m-o-b. how about nothing spells snob like t-a-m-a-r-a. I still cant figure out where you came from, you act like you are related to the royal family one minute, but no offense, your side of the family looks like one step away from trailer park trash. there are good in bad in every walk of life, race and religion but you are one judgemental person coming from someone that wasnt born into money. Simon cant buy you the one thing you need CLASS!!!

Tamara how can you hate on the NJ housewifes when all you did was keep up shit on the show, hating on your suppose to be friend, and by the way you can not talk about nobody boos when it look like you had yours done,and your hair looks so unhealthy so please look at your-self before you down somebody else.

Keep the blogs coming... HILarious!!!!!

Wow Tamara, thanks for telling it like it is! I agree with you about the NJ wives. I certainly wouldn't want to mess with that bunch!

Tamra, the mob comment was just out of line. Why can't Joe be a hardworking Italian-American man, successful in his own right? Are you assuming this only because he's Italian-American? I would love to call you and your husband out on your obviously bloated lifestyle. At least Joe and Teresa look like they actually have money. I can understand trying to be "witty" but to do that at the sake of enforcing stereotypes just makes you look ignorant.

Tamra, coming from an FBI (full blooded Italian), I found your blog hysterical! First calling Teresa "the Nanny", then the mob comment (not offensive, just funny)! I'll look forward to your blog all season!

I think your comments were OVERLY offensive...everyone does have a right to their own opinion, however you said things that can hurt a person's career AND you said it in a blog-open to everyone in the world to see. I know you don't care because you are so self-centered, but I just found you to be very mean and COMMON in your opinions of these women. You are simple-minded and too judgemental with the comments you posted!

TAMERAHHHH!

OK girlfriend! You need to be careful! I was pretty mad at you last season and even thought that maybe you should leave the show but not by "going missing"! LOL!
I get most of your humor, you are tongue in cheek, but still what you said was hurtful!
I like most of your blog though and hope you keep on through the season!

BTW aren't you guys starting to shoot the next OCHW season soon?
I will always be a fan of the OC wives but I am fascinated with these NJHW!
This is a REAL Soap Opera!

Take care & be real!

Bang on Tamara!

You summed that up quite well.

Tamra,

You might want to be careful about what you put in print. You just suggested a business man on the New Jersey show is a criminal!

People work years to build a business and make a name for themselves and people like you come along and throw words around that can ruin people's lives.

It seems you don't know how to show any respect to anyone or realise how your nasty words can hurt others. The man has a wife and children to think of and here you are attempting to spread more hateful rumors.

You might think it's funny in the OC to insult Italian's but most people know it's not funny in New York and New Jersey, it's rude and hurtful.

Maybe you should get out of your bubble and get to know the non plastic, hard working folks that have to put up with ignorant people like yourself.

Making fun of another woman's appearance is really low, do you ever say anything nice about anyone?

You have always been my FAV! As for the mob comment, YES you have it right on! I lived in NJ for 2 years and believe me, everyone involved in the "construction" type business, trucking, or shipping business is MOB related....99% of them. They all pay cash for everything. I love you, you speak your mind!

Tamra your hysterical your my favorite oc wife and I loved your blog you always crack me up miss ya can't wait till next season for you guys hope all is well see ya soon!!!(on t.v. I meant) lol lol

Umm, Tamra, I think you might want to think about refraining from making such nauseating stereotypical remarks as you did in this blog. Suggesting that Teresa's husband must be a member of organized crime because he's Italian and is in construction is A)offensive, B)obnoxious, and, C)ignorant. I'm not even Italian and I'm offended..damn.

Ok, I am a Jersey girl. I am also first generation Italian-American. I resent the MOB comments, as there are an overwhelming majority of Italian-Americans that have never even seen, let alone met, a MOBSTER. Why is it that we have to suffer this kind of racial slurs from non-Italian-Americans? Would you say that if the show was about Irish-Americans they must be all drunks? Would you say that if the show was about African-Americans that they must all live in the 'hood? Come on America, wake up. Successful people are from all walks of life, and having ready cash does not a mobster make.

If ya'll r big fans u would know she wasn't carrying around 120k in cash some money the rest credit. And yes i'm a jersey girl
