Caroline Manzo and Teresa Guidice Won't Support Young Boy with Cancer Without Getting Appearance Fee?!?


NYDailyNews.com:
Talk about cold-hearted! “The Real Housewives of New Jersey” cast members Teresa Guidice and Caroline Manzo won't support a 6-year-old boy with cancer — who likely has just months to live — without their hefty appearance fee.

This Friday, Prudential Realty’s Lyndhurst and Rutherford offices are hosting a Halloween party that will raise funds for Christopher DiMartino, a New Jersey tyke who’s suffered from cancer since the age of 3 and will lose the battle soon if he doesn’t receive money for chemotherapy. Salvatore Scirica, the real estate salesman hosting the dinner, thought to bring in “The Real Housewives” stars to attract more donors.

After all, the DiMartinos had relied on Manzo’s family before: In 2009, they held a fundraiser at the Brownstone, the restaurant co-owned by Caroline’s husband, Albert, and featured on the Bravo show.

Scirica asked Metropolis Nights editor Chaunce Hayden to reach out to Manzo and Guidice. Both requests were ignored by the reality stars. “It was crickets,” Hayden told Confidenti@l. When he asked a mutual friend for an explanation, Hayden got the hard truth. “They don’t do anything anymore unless they are getting paid,” the mutual friend told Hayden. “End of story.”

But providing “The Real Housewives” stars with their fees is out of the question.

“We’re not gonna pay them. We’re gonna give the DiMartino family the money,” Scirica told Confidenti@l. “They lost the house over this, and insurance won’t carry the chemo.”

“They’re from New Jersey; they’re 10 minutes away from the restaurant!” Scirica added. “Sometimes, the fame goes to their [Manzo and Giudice’s] heads.”

A source told Confidenti@l that appearance fees for “The Real Housewives” cast members can be anywhere from $3,000 to $30,000.

The venue, Euro Lounge Cafe, is providing the space and catering for just part of the revenue, and Ciroc (which Sean (Diddy) Combs has stake in) has agreed to provide the vodka. Tickets can be purchased by calling  (201) 494-0679 .

A spokesperson for Manzo said, “She has never been contacted by these people.” A rep for Guidice did not respond to a request for comment.

  1. This was all over twitter and both (Manzo and Giudice) said this was false. Who knows what's true anymore.

  2. Give them both a break. They have every right to pick and choose which charities they want to participate in. I think it's horrible that the charity in question used this as ammunition against them when they allegedly weren't responsive.

  3. I think they did a lot last year to help. It is not there reaponsibility to do it every year. Yes it is tragic for this little boy but we all can't save the world all of the time.

  4. Caroline is having event at the Brownstone and this is such a false story about her. As for Teresa that fool pimps her daughters out to magazines for a fee so I can see her not doing this for the boy unless she gets paid. Teresa is disgusting.

  5. Oh come on! Why would she go to the Brownstone and bring more stress to the environment? If it is true and Caroline is hosting then that is fab and should be enough. Not necessary to call names Theresa has her own problems and she is obviously desperate to stay above water. Caroline should stop being mean to her and take own advice and "walk away". Practice what you preach Caroline!!

    3. This has to be the Gorgas writting this stuff. Theresa does very well with all her successes. Go on line and see for youself you might be surprised, but one would think you all would know this stuff, since your so brutal towards her talk about being stupid!!!! And as far as Bravo getting rid of the Giudices they will not be the one's removed sorry! Whether you want to except it or not they make the show without them Bravo knows they don't have this show. Bravo would have to start all over with a whole new cast maybe that would be good.

  7. If they appear at this party without being paid other charities will expect not to pay fees.

  8. Bet that "Bitch Sandy" the storm cancels the whole event!
    I suspect this story is false. Caroline is a great person and she would help those in need. As for Teresa...she's like Sandy the storm.

  9. Caroline is a good person,but so is Theresa just not to these women and vise, versa. Theresa is known for giving to various charities that's why she was asked to support this one, but just like Caroline has declined. But to compare Theresa to this horrific storm that killed 70 plus people is despicable you are lead with as much hatred in your heart towards a women that you have judge to be full of hate, but yet you display the same hearts intent by referring to her as the sandy storm sheer evil!!!
