Andy Cohen Addresses RHNJ Rumors

Leave it to the king of all the Real Housewives franchises to come out and give us the news straight up. Lately, the rumor mill has been turning about one of these in particular -- New Jersey. Both rumors about casting and rumors about postponing the show until Teresa's return have been circulating, causing a bit of an uproar withing the fandom. Luckily Andy, being as vocal as always, has a few things to say to fans about these issues.


First of all let's give all the fans of the show a huge sigh of relief that Snooki, MTV's reality star cash cow from Jersey Shore and Snooki And JWOW, will not be on Bravo for Real Housewives of New Jersey. Thank God. I was very concerned when I heard this, but via Twitter, both Polizzi and Cohen have confirmed that she will not be a part of the casting process. "She ain't joining" was what Cohen responded to a fan on Twitter. And suddenly the world sighed in relief.

On the other end of the spectrum, a much larger and more likely rumor has been going around the internet, hitting all the major blogs that follow the franchise. This rumor looks at not only the survivability of the show without breakout star Teresa Giudice, but also the likelihood of it being postponed until next year when she is released. Andy's response to this was much less concise.

"I can't imagine not filming The Real Housewives of New Jersey. It's a big franchise for Bravo, and I think whatever we do, we're going to do it the right way," he explained to Us Weekly in a recent interview, "So we're still figuring that out right now."

It looks like things are still very unsure for the time being. We know that no official decision has been made just yet, but it's clear that the void will be large without Giudice. Perhaps they can bring back Jacqueline and Caroline Manzo to keep fans interested while the resident crazy lady is away. All we are left with is a vague yet hopeful quote from Andy. "Anything is possible."
