lauren manzoEven though The Real Housewives of New Jersey reunion was two days ago, I can't. Stop. Thinking about it. It was hands-down the most insane reunion ever, and let's be honest, it made The Real Housewives of New York finale look like a fireside chat. I feel like I could write a book on the insanity that was Teresa (and Caroline, and Jacqueline, and Kathy -- honestly? Melissa's the one who came off half-normal!), but I'm only allotted a certain amount of words here, so let's just talk about how Lauren Manzo confessed that Xanax was being passed around behind the scenes like "candy."

Glittery, tanned, fabulicious candy.

Manzo said to Us Weekly: "Xanax was being passed around like candy. There was so much yelling, Andy Cohen was shouting at everybody to be quiet!"

Yeahhhh, nothing shocking there! I felt like I needed a Xanax after the show. It was so intense! The lies, the yelling, the j'accuse! I would have had to down an entire bottle of Ramona pinot grigio before setting foot on to that set. But the scary thing is -- this is what these women were like with Xanax! Imagine them without! Heavens to Bravo, the Earth might swallow itself whole.

I'm seriously waiting with bated breath for parts II and III of the reunion, as clearly they're only going to get more intense. (Teresa walked in on Juicy Joe with another woman -- what!) But good god, can we get these women something stronger.

Thoughts on the reunion? Whose side are you on? Are you looking forward to Sunday? Ahh, so much to discuss!
