Victoria Gotti either showed her ignorance or her contempt for honesty when she talked about Lindsay Lohan with the NY Post’s Andrea Peyser. Lindsay is Victoria’s first choice to play her in a movie about the Gotti family starring John Travolta as John “Junior” Gotti. Andrea asked Victoria if she thought Lindsay was guilty of stealing the necklace. “Absolutely NOT!” declared the mafia moll. “This is a case where someone needs a lot of P.R.” she snorted, referring to the jewelry store where Lindsay was accused of shoplifting. The absurd idea that accusing a celebrity of shoplifting will enhance a store’s image or increase business has been floated by Lindsay’s defense. In fact, the LAST thing a retailer wants to do is catch a celebrity shoplifting because they WANT celebrity customers and it’s awkward and embarrassing. Remember, Saks Fifth Avenue didn’t charge Winona Ryder with stealing until she’d done it so many times they had no choice. And Barneys knew she shoplifted and NEVER reported her. Stores do NOT relish negative publicity, spending hours in court, or offending celebrities and their friends. That’s why MOST celebrity shoplifters get away with it. We commend the store for standing up for their rights!

Actually Victoria wrote a book which is more than you could expect from her pedigree,,,,there is some NY connection between the 2. I think Vicky is straight so its not like Lindsay is doing a Sam Ronson on her every night for payment!
Takes one to know one I guess
GUILTY as charged and everyone knows it!!
Lindsay should glance to her left and see her future. Yikes.
That’s a lot of hair! Does Victoria wear a wig?
For those who horror at the N word…here is how the blacks spew it out:

Walt, she has a roomful of wigs; I heard her admit it, though can’t remember where.
please BOYCOTT these people or just send them both to jail!!
Clearly Victoria has ‘connections’ somehow managing to evade ‘living off the proceeds of crime’ legislation.
An (alleged) sociopath playing an (alleged) sociopath. No acting involved.
My, my, my how judgemental all of you are.
Not one of you would turn your nose up at four or five suitcases “stuffed” up in the attic, would you?!
Peasants.
Where is REta. I am concerned.
What is Strom’s problem? Is he the reason Reta stays away? Janet, his comments are overly offensive, as in this instance have nothing to do with the subject at hand, and need to be censored. They make me cringe, which I guess is the point (Strom??? Really???).
I think playing Victoria ought to be a scary proposition for Lindsay. V had a reality show for awhile, and I watched it once. She is a walking stereotype. Does she really want this for her come-back?
lindsay’s looking old and worn out.
Yes we need Reta back, we lost our resident moron and I am getting bored. Marianne Reta is a sensitive morning flower fairy, she gets offended just by looking at swear words. Her fairy wings wilt and she starts crying crystal tears at the site of Strom.
Ha,,,,pointing out the truth in life when the articles here become very boring should not draw such flak.
Gloria James said what so many others say but it drew nary a flinch.
Alpha Femme: Mostly what pisses off Reta was when someone commented that so-and-so celeb was queer. Even the ones that are known to be queer, Reta could not stand you saying that they were. Also, she could not stand it if someone wrote 3 or 4 lines about God or anything at all about religion, as she has stated she is an atheist. But, as I have stated before, I like to read ALL comments on here, and ones that come from Reta, as she is so super intense.
Who cares…it’s not about posters, she can make her hysterical comments on the HSN for all it matters.
Kobe Bryant was fined 100K for probably calling a fag a fag….that’s not America!
