Just when I thought The Real Housewives of New Jersey couldn’t get any more disturbing Bravo mistreated us to a very unsettling glimpse into the world of breast implant surgeries gone wrong. The racksidents in question belong to Danielle Staub (of course) and in the most recent episode she visits a surgeon to look into getting them “fixed,” which would be her fourth surgery.
Not only do we get to see Danielle topless in the examining room, but also passed out unconscious on the operating table. Meanwhile, Bravo was pushing the envelope of what constitutes “censoring” with what must have been the bare minimum of blurring allowed by the FCC – and given the disastrous state of Danielle’s staubs, that was not a good thing.
The doctors were tossing about words like “disastrous” and scary hyperboles like “most deformed ever” as they contemplated whether or not her bubbies could be saved.
One of the doctors, Dr. Michael Fiorillo, sat down with O.K. Magazine to discuss the procedure as well as all the things that were askew with The Real Housewife of New Jersey‘s previous alterations. Fiorillo said:
“She was very upset with her breasts, she was not happy with them at all. She had them done three times already. Her problem was what is called capsular contraction. That’s when scar tissue forms around the breast implant and that makes the implants hard, cold and deformed…the right one was almost up by her neck!”
Danielle also had “scarring up by the nipple and all the way down,” Fiorillo said. But she was pleased with the results of her new soft bubbies.
Here is the good Dr. talking all things Staub stumps for the cameras:
UPDATE – Danielle Staub is none too pleased that her doctor is blabbing to tabloids about her breasts! She tells Hollywood Life, “I did not give my consent to have details of my surgery discussed other than what was shown on The Real Housewives of New Jersey episode.”
Dr. Fiorillo responded to Danielle’s outrage by saying:
“There is no HIPPA here because as you can see she showed her breasts on the show and everything I said she said,” says Dr. Fiorillo. “I would say this is absolutely fine and legally fine that I spoke about it. I have her blessing to speak about it and she spoke about it numerous times.”
Watch out Doc! I get the distinct impression that Danielle is the suing kind!
And just in case you missed it, here is the not-so-blurred-out footage from the episode:
If you’d like to see Danielle’s unedited malformities prior to her most recent surgery, she told Andy Cohen on Watch What Happens Live after Monday night’s episode that her infamous sex tape was shot prior to having the procedure. I’m sure an “after” tape is in production as we speak.
