Should Andy Cohen Force Teresa & Melissa to Interact?

12

Julia Fox isn’t feeling the fractured cast on RHONJ and wants Andy Cohen to force Teresa Giudice and Melissa Gorga to interact on camera.

On the Monday, May 20th episode of Watch What Happens Live, the 34-year-old was asked to share her two cents on Teresa Giudice and Melissa Gorga’s frosty attitudes toward each other in season 14 of RHONJ.

“Is it refreshing to you that Teresa and Melissa are basically just being very clear that they hate each other?” Andy Cohen asked.

The actress and model replied, “No. I think you need to step in and say, ‘I’m your boss, and we have a show to run.’”

According to Julia, she wants to see Teresa and Melissa  “just be on screen together … if they’re fighting, we want to see it. If they’re crying, we want to see it.”

Andy Cohen recently teased that a major casting shakeup for season 15 is in the works.

 A few weeks back,  Entertainment Tonight’s Brice Sander appeared on the Gabbing With Gib podcast, where he reported that Andy Cohen said the zero interactions or communication between RHONJ stars Teresa Giudice, Melissa Gorga, and Margaret Josephs throughout season 14 will NOT work for future seasons of the series.

The Watch What Happens Live host later clarified his comments on Sirius XM’s Andy Cohen Live:

“Want to clear something up or want to add to a comment that I made that has made some news this week and I don’t know when I said it, but apparently, I said it to Brice from Entertainment Tonight, and I don’t know when. I haven’t seen him since BravoCon, I don’t think. Apparently, I told him and it got picked up all over the place that Jersey, the idea of having both Melissa and Theresa on the show, that it’s not sustainable because they’re not speaking and there are kind of two camps on the show. What I want to clarify is that I maintain that statement.”

“It isn’t a sustainable universe to have kind of two camps on the show and I think you see that with Potomac this season and why a lot of viewers, including me, were frustrated with it, but I will say this. It somehow worked this season. We got through the season and it worked and it’s interesting and as I think you see from the trailer, the season is not about Melissa versus Teresa and I think that’s great, yet they’re both still on the show and we want to see them on the show.”

Andy concluded by saying while the divide among the RHONJ cast worked this season – it won’t work in the future:

“They’re both, you know, they’re both stars, and they’ve been on the show, you know, forever, so it worked this season, but I stand by what I’m saying that for the future, it’s not sustainable. I don’t want you to think that what I said was a condemnation on this season.”

RHONJ airs on Sundays at 8 pm on Bravo.
