Is this the battle of the children turned model?

We begin with Teresa being the ultimate stage mom for Gia (we love you anyway!). Gia gets selected to be in a runway show during fashion week.  Hmmm – we’ll have to wait to see what this means.  But you can see that Teresa is truly happy for her daughter and it’s what Gia really wants.

Meanwhile, Danielle’s daughter Christine gets a modeling gig with IMG.  Danielle does not even try to hide to fact that she is ecstatic over all the $$$ they’ll have and how they can buy a bigger house!!!     Hopefully Danielle will at least hire a decorator so her garish taste won’t ruin whatever she buys.  Not to be horrible, but I’ve seen 1 bedroom apartments that look waaay better than her tacky 20 room house!!!

Now, did Christine seem excited to you?  The only time she got excited was when Danielle was planning their ‘celebratory lunch’.  That is until, Danielle told her that Christine and her sister were not invited.  The party was to be for Danielle to celebrate and brag to her friends.  Boy, that took the air right out of Christine’s balloon!

But can Danielle even enjoy her celebratory lunch? NO. She had to embarrass one guest and make her swear she wasn’t a friend of Caroline’s and then she had 2 empty chairs that she had ‘reserved’ for Jacqueline and Dina. Who of course had told her before the lunch that they would not be attending. Does she think people will think ‘poor Danielle’. I don’t think so… more like ‘psycho Danielle’.

We’ll have to see what the season holds. I just hope a lot of that stuff is ‘staged’ and that Danielle’s daughters aren’t really at the mercy of mommy dearest!
