Melissa's book is getting slaughtered in the amazon reviews. 28 total reviews, 6 are 5 star, 22 are 1 star. Nothing in between. Caroline's book only has 108 reviews after 6 months on the market. LOL!!!! |

I don't know how accurate that is. It looks like Teresa first filed to trademark Skinny Italian on 5/25/11 but then abandoned it on 3/15/12. http://tess2.uspto.gov/bin/showfield?f=doc&state=4805:6a6a0u.2.2 She finally did trademark it on 12/7/12. http://tess2.uspto.gov/bin/showfield?f=doc&state=4805:6a6a0u.2.1 The oldest Skinnygirl trademark I can find was filed in 2008. It shows it's owned by Jim Beam now so that has to be Bethenny's original trademark. http://tess2.uspto.gov/bin/showfield?f=doc&state=4805:6a6a0u.3.27 So that blog's argument about the trademark just doesn't make sense. Teresa didn't trademark anything "skinny" before Bethenny did. |

Good research, WW. Still, I love all the speculation. There's no question Bethenny is pissed at Tre, and it's got to be about that word "Skinny." And Beth and Andy are sthicksthieves, no? What about all that stuff about Jonathan Cheban? |

I don't know who that guy is other than what was said in that blog. I never really followed any of that Jill Zarin stuff back in the day. But I do remember Bethenny using the Skinnygirl name back during her RHONY days, long before Tre ever started using it. If anything I'd believe it more if the blogger had said that Bethenny was pissed that Tre stole the "skinny" name from her. But I can't imagine that Bethenny would still care that much about Tre. Bethenny already has made a name for herself separate from the HW stuff. If the HW were to end I don't know that Tre could keep up a fan base unless she could manage to get some kind of show but I just don't see Tre pulling something like that off. Can you imagine her trying to host a talk show? Plus, Bethenny seems to have at least run her businesses in a legit way. I do think she has business smarts and can think on her feet. Tre has neither attribute. I also find it bizarre and fascinating that some bloggers and fans try to blame Tre's legal problems and downfall on anyone and everyone EXCEPT Tre and Joe. Do they think Bethenny typed up the fake tax returns herself? |

I know! Interesting take on the battle of the PR firms, but I don't think Bethenny really concerns herself anymore with RHONJ. And for sure, Bethenny's fans didn't suddenly all flock over to support Tre. Or at lest this one didn't. There isn't a single NJ ho-wife I really support, although I do enjoy Miliania. Out of all of that, I liked this quote, supposedly credited to one of Bethenny's blogs a few years ago:
because I think that sums up Tre pretty well. Her philosophy of doing whatever she likes and then denying it all or somehow just not thinking about it is amazing to me. I read some other article here claiming Clownie's Hoboken hideout was for Big Al to establish residency there and now this one says they originally bought it for CIITR. Clearly, she isn't going anywhere so that's weird too. That they all share a PR firm once used by Jill Zarin doesn't surprise me though. I hope Jill got her money back, lol. |

It was like fanfic -- someone who (obviously to me) hates Bethenny and loves Tree. Bethenny was saying Skinnygirl Margarita back on RHONY before RHONJ really got going, so that's bullshit. Mondo, why would it be scrubbed? Freedom of the press, there's nothing confidential exposed because the client lists are public or have been told ... I dislike having no captions -- is the guy in the bottom two pix the PR guy ? But that was enjoyable, because I do enjoy a good bullshit artist. They're so creative! |

Well said Icy. I agree completely. No photo captions, no sources cited. Good story though. |

I like anything that purports to be "behind the scenes." I also enjoy conspiracy theories. This blogger's real target seems to be Jonathan Cheban. |

Melissa is coming on Hoda and KLee. DD was her and thought she was really pretty. I need to disinherit her now. Actually I guess she is pretty on the outside after all the plastic surgery |

I think that blog could have some element of truth to it. Bethenny did go after Teresa hard so I believe that completely. I wish they used spell check though, it made it hard to read. |

Jonathan Cheban? Isn't he Kim Kardashians BFF? He's always up her ass on KUWTK. I think he has a PR company but spends more time with Kim. HE maybe out on his ass now that Kanye is on Kim's ass. Rumor is he wanted to be godfather to North and Kanye isn't having it. |

I posted about him on another thread. He is or was besties with Lizzie Grubman. He also opened a stupid expensive t-shirt company. I assume his PR company is still open. He is the biggest slime. Cannot stand him. Haven't seen him in years but I'm sure he doesn't change. ICK |
