Kim D and Kim G have returned...and not a moment too soon. Last year, it was Danielle's "square and fake tits" that pissed off Ms. Granatell. Now it's Theresa's "fat, crooked ass." Eat your heart out Jim Bellino. In just a few minutes of airtime, Kim G. has done more to reduce women to their anatomy than any misogynistic, self-important OC douche ever could.
Now, I am not a fan of Theresa's. Never was. I find her pretentious, antagonistic, completely un self-aware. I resent that she's still in that mansion driving fancy cars when she owes so many people so many millions of dollars, etc...let's not go down this road because we may never leave it. But despite all this, I have to be objective and say: what happened at the Christening was not her fault. She congratulated her brother and he flipped out and called her garbage. Melissa's sister joined in to tell Theresa off too. Now, I am sure there's backstory there, but to the extent of what happened at the Christening, you can't fault someone for coming over to say some kind words. If Bro-Joe was that pissed off, he could have said, "thanks, and we need to talk but let's do it at another time and place." I would bet Kathy, Melissa and their respective families have legitimate issues with Theresa, who seems to have numerous and deep rifts with nearly everyone who crosses her path, but it was Joe - not Theresa - who played them out at his kid's Christening.
So Kim D., fashion powerhouse, is putting on another fashion show, AKA: Bravo-funded drama platform. Funny, this closet-sized store has so much pull, reach and capital to pull-off a massive event like this. Anyway, in comes Kim G., who I want to root for, but cannot. She starts mouthing off to Theresa's sister-in-law and cousin about....Theresa!! (both of whom admirably didn't take the bait). Then she stirs shit at the fashion show. Then she asks if they should boo Theresa. See, Kim G. has legitimate beef with the mouthy Ms. Giudice but she seems intent on surrendering the moral high ground anyway. Another aside: did you see Jacqueline's face when Kim G. was brought up? What happened there?
Okay, Kathy was a little antagonistic to Theresa, but it was Theresa, not Kathy, who spilled their argument away from the private room into the main room where everyone can see them. She could have said, "Let's have this discussion elsewhere..." but she didn't. The Giudice/Gorga crew seem to be incapable of handling things in a remotely adult manner. True to form, Theresa starts yelling and screaming and acting like a petulant third-grader and can not be calmed down. Kathy wasn't blameless but Theresa never misses an opportunity to blow it up way beyond what it warrants and then blame it on others (or pretend it never happened)...a trait I would bet plays a role in her brother's uncontrolled anger towards her.
Anyone else notice Kim G's mug looming behind the melee? I hope we see more of it. For the record, as shit-stirring as she is, she was nice to Theresa last season, who made fun of Kim's age and generally ripped on her. Which is why I root for Kim G., who I think would do more good in getting airtime and friendships if she tried to quell the fire instead of constantly lighting the match and pouring gas on the fllames. Ms. Giudice may have met her match...we'll see...
