10 facts about 16 and Pregnant’s Cleondra Carter

On Tuesdays I normally provide a background post about the star of that night’s episode of 16 and Pregnant – thanks in large part to these girls being social media mavens, which provides lots of information to work with. Unfortunately, this week’s mom – 18-year-old Cleondra Carter of Horn Lake, Mississippi – was a little slow to the social media game and as a result there just wasn’t enough information to put together any sort of biographical overview.

So instead I thought I might employ the age-old blogging tactic of a list of ten – in this case a list of ten facts about Cleondra Carter! Now don’t be too saddened by the news because if you read through the ten things you will discover there are numerous facts lumped together so you’re actually gonna make out like a bandit with superfluous information all over the place! (You already know her age and where she’s from and we haven’t even started the list yet – see what I mean?)

UPDATE – Thanks to a fake Twitter account and a gullible blogger there’s really only seven facts. They’re good facts though!

Ashlee Holmes working for infamous publicist Lizzie Grubman?

Maybe the biggest shocker on the third season premiere of Real Housewives of New Jersey is that Ashlee Holmes has an internship with public relations powerhouse Lizzie Grubman.

PHOTOS Jersey Shore cast puts the T in GTL in the ITL (Go to a tanning salon in Italy)

The surreal confluence of Jersey Shore meets Italy continues as the cast gets acclimated to their new Tuscan digs – or perhaps it would be more accurate to say “as their new Tuscan digs get acclimated to them.”

One thing America’s favorite Guidos and Guidettes will not allow is for a trip to Florence, Italy to interfere with their acronympho mantra, GTL! The boys and gals were photographed earlier on their way to a tanning salon – and from the looks of them and their attire it seems the G and the L are safe as well! (For those of you in Florence or other remote regions of the world not yet familiar with the Guidocabulary, GTL stands for Gym, Tan, Laundry.)

Teresa Giudice’s feud with sister-in-law Melissa Gorga and brother Joe

Teresa Guidice lost her arch nemesis Danielle Staub from the cast of Real Housewives of New Jersey, but the show’s producers used their magic to pull not one, but three antagonistic rabbits out of their hats to make up for it. The rub is they’re all related to Teresa (brother Joe Giudice, and his wife Melissa are joining the show, along with Teresa’s cousin Kathy Wakile), and Teresa had to find out from the media and Bravo, not the family members themselves that they were on the show. Throw that in with the stress of spending money like it’s growing on trees planted in your over-sized, ornate house and then finding out that your husband had been lying about the state of your finances, forging your name on legal docs, filing for bankruptcy behind your back, and committing fraud, it’s really a wonder Teresa isn’t in a mental institution somewhere. How did things get so bad?
