Last week, we got the call to cover Ocean Drive’s red carpet event for the Miami debut of blk. water, which we thought sounded interesting. Then we remembered that Real Housewives of New Jersey boys, Albie and Chris Manzo, represented the product. We knew if we were lucky, the guys…

It’s Semi-Finals week here on Dancing With the Stars and we have to admit that we are sort of relieved. Because boy was this week a snoozer! There are four couples left and unfortunately they are all the least interesting couples on the show. We don’t even have Nancy Grace anymore, who…
