Carla Facciolo

Carla Facciolo is the only sane cast member on Vh1's reality show, Mob Wives. Carla is calm and realistic. We kind of love her. Carla Facciolo says that men who are behind bars would never wait on their women if the tables were turned. Preach it!

Mob Wives Season 2 Premiere Recap: Renee Graziano's Plastic Surgery Goes Bad, Ramona Rizzo Shows Up

Renee Graziano meets with a plastic surgeon to talk about her "full body makeover" where the surgeon will be "cutting you all the way around your body, taking your skin up, taking the fat out. They inject it into your ass, sew it all together and then you're perfect." She says she's getting her body "today, and will be skinny tomorrow."

While on the operating table, Renee says that she's thinking of Kanye West's late mother. Great timing!

Carla Facciolo and Drita D'Avanzo meet up at Carla's house. They haven't hung out for a while, Drita says. But aren't they supposed to be such good friends?! Drita and Carla lay out in their bikinis, both looking smoking hawt! More T&A please. Drita says that she wants to hit the woman her husband cheated on her with with a crowbar "for general purposes," lol.

Renee wakes up from surgery talking about how bad her pain is, saying the medications aren't working. It's a little too real, a little too sad. Renee accidentally ripped her stiches open by moving in bed. She lost so much blood, she "almost died!"

Karen Gravano calls Renee to see how she's doing in the hospital. Renee says that she lost 6.3 pints of blood and her body went cold!! Damn. Renee says that Carla sent her one text on the day of her surgery and hasn't contacted her since to see if she's okay, which is unacceptable. Word! Carla says that she wishes that Renee would have gone with her to the gym because her surgery "wasn't worth it." Well that was sensitive, Carla.

Renee tells Karen that she came out of surgery looking "ugly" and that her surgery has taken her depression to a level she never thought she'd get to. Renee says that she should have just gone to the gym. This sh!t is too sad for me. I need some drama, the kind that doesn't involve any tears.

Ramona Rizzo Joins Mob Wives Season 2 Cast in Promo Shots

Ramona Rizzo is the cute girl who has joined the cast of Mob Wives. She's besties with Karen Gravano and she doesn't like Drita D'Avanzo just cause. Renee Graziano's ex-husband Junior also has a more prominent role this season, as you can see. Junior posed for the promotional photo shoot.

I know the network is keeping its mobster theme going, but the dim lighting and the costumes are too over the top. These broads only wear tank tops and jeans most of the time so they can fight someone. Like, none of these women are women are likable, which means that I'll definitely be tuning in!

Mob Wives Season 2 Premieres on New Year's Day

How ridiculous is the promo poster and ad for Mob Wives season 2? Just as ridiculous as the show! Original castmembers Drita D'Avanzo, Renee Graziano, Karen Gravano and Carla Facciolo are back, along with newcomer Ramona Rizzo.

Drita has finally decided to leave her abusive husband, who is still serving time behind bars, but she still has beef with Karen. I think Drita's jealous of Karen cause Karen has her freedom, and she didn't waste as much time with Drita's man as she did... Check it out. I think this promo is genius. The music alone reminds me that season 2 airs on New Year's Day.

Mob Wives Recap: Drita and Karen Hug it Out, Renee Graziano Deletes Online Dating Profile

The episode begins with all of the women screaming at each other in Renee Graziano’s house because her “cage fight” dinner party is “on and poppin!” Karen Gravano starts telling Drita D’Avanzo that Drita should have told her that she started dating Karen’s ex-boyfriend, Lee D’Avanzo. Drita says that they weren’t talking for years.

Renee butts in and says that Karen’s upset because “it’s about friendship” and Drita says, “Is it about friendship or is it that your new man doesn’t pound you out good enough like Lee did?” Gasp.

Renee tells Drita that she should tell Karen that she’s sorry for hurting Karen. Karen starts crying. Drita walks up to Karen, hugs her and apologizes. We’re so glad this high school bullsh!t is ovah.

Carla Facciolo and Renee then hug it out too. Renee says that she’s taking Carla’s relationship too personally.

Drita shows up at Carla’s house the day after Renee’s dinner to talk sh!t with Carla. Drita says that she did not even get to eat at Renee’s dinner! Carla’s so annoyed about the situation that her Jersey (but she says she’s from Brooklyn) accent is now coming through more than ever.

Carla Facciolo talks to husband

Drita says that she’ll just shoot them all the next time there’s drama like this. 'Guns! Bullets! Murder! Muahahahahaha!' Violence is funny to these chicks.

Karen and Renee meet up for lunch. Renee says that she will have her ex-husband Junior handle Carla’s boyfriend if Carla’s boyfriend upsets her again. Renee says that her ex-husband is living in her house right now to spend as much time with her son as possible before he’ll be sent to jail soon.

Renee also reveals that she “should be in a sexually active relationship.” WHO SAYS THAT?! Renee claims that dating is difficult, but anyone can see that part of the reason why it's "difficult" is because Renee is clearly not over her ex-husband and she’s not even trying.

Carla goes out with two of her friends. She says that she never knew her husband would go to jail and that heir marriage looked perfect from the outside.

Back at Renee’s crib, she’s giving online dating a try and Drita is there to help her set up a profile. Renee brags that she’s going to put her boyfriend through a lot of drama before looking at website members and claiming that they all “look like cheaters.”

Mob Wives Recap: Renee Graziano's "Cage Fight" Dinner Party

For those that love an intense catfight, this week’s episode of Mob Wives did not disappoint! Like many fights between females, the source of the ongoing conflicts - Renee vs. Carla and Karen vs. Drita - all boils down to two men. Chicks before dicks, ladies!

The episode begins with Drita D’Avanzo telling Carla Facciolo about Karen Gravano showing up at her house and talking sh!t about her husband Lee D’Avanzo. Carla calls the Lee situation “ancient history.” Karen says that there’s no coming back from that fight.

Karen meets with Renee Graziano to tell her what happened at Drita’s house. Renee adds fuel to the fire, saying that Karen should have called Drita a coward and demanded an apology. During her confessional interview segment, Karen continues to talk with her hands like she’s a rapper flowing on the mic.

Lee D’avanzo calls his sexy wife Drita who STILL blushes every single time she mentions her husband's name. Drita says “Once Lee and I make up, the phone’s ringing off the hook!” Lee tells Drita to get a new tattoo on the back of her neck before asking her to send some photos of her “tits and ass.” Drita tells him not to hurt himself and she agrees to send ‘em.

Carla meets up with Renee, but the ladies aren’t seeing eye to eye on Drita and Karen’s “Your-husband-is-my-ex-boyfriend-you-should-have-told-me-you-were-with-him” high school drama. Renee tells Carla that Carla deserves to be with a better boyfriend. Carla defends her man and then Renee tells Carla that she’s having a dinner at her house on Sunday and she doesn’t want any drama. Translation: Drama’s goin’ down! Or “It’s on and poppin!” like Drita and Carla said.

Renee says that her ex-husband “really loved my lettahs” and she wants to create a website where people log on, submit their info, and she sends cards to inmates so that her site’s users don’t have to worry about corresponding with their locked up loved ones. It’s a good idea EXCEPT for the reality that receiving cards sent from a company isn’t going to feel nearly as personal as letters and packages that don’t come from a third party. How disappointing for the inmates!

Drita says that her abusive husband bought her a lot of things and she blushes again. It’s equally as endearing as it is disturbing. Drita’s 3 year-old daughter Gizelle is too cute for words! Theree’s no way that I can capture how cute Gizelle was during a scene where Gizelle is dressing up in her mom Drita's clothes and telling her mom that she looks beautiful whenever Drita tries something on.

Carla tells Drita that Renee is talking about Carla’s man and Drita says, Renee is “DJ I Contradict Myself. She speaks of loyalty. You leave the room, she talks sh!t about you.” Um, okay.

Drita gets in a white bikini and goes to a photo studio to pose for pictures for her incarcerated hubby. Drita looks at the photos and says “Damn, my body looks good. WTF!” Lol. She doesn’t own a mirror.

Mob Wives Catfight Video: Drita D'Avanzo Takes Her Heels Off!

Drita D'Avanzo is ready to break someone's face or leave the place covered in blood as she rips her heels off and jumps in the fight between Renee Graziano and Carla Facciolo. Vh1 crew members quickly intervene (the thin chick is seriously dangerous). A security dude is contractually obligated to make sure Karen Gravano isn't killed on his dime, so he holds Karen back. Meanwhile Karen becomes bold all of a sudden and tries to fight Drita?! If you haven't watched Mob Wives, now would be a good time to start. This fight was cut off in the middle. The drama resumes next Sunday at 8 PM on Vh1.

Mob Wives Fight Video: Carla Facciolo Calls Renee Graziano a B!tch

Tonight's episode of Mob Wives featured the fight from the promo video, which was the main reason why I wanted to watch the show. Catfights are always entertaining because b!tches really do go for each other's hair... Oops! I just said "bitch," which is what pushed Renee Graziano over the edge. Renee doesn't like Carla Facciolo's boyfriend and Carla doesn't care. Renee thinks she's in the right for letting Carla know what she thinks of her boyfriend, but Carla disagrees. Then Carla drops the B-bomb on Ms. Graziano...

Renee Graziano Cooks on GMA For Mob Wives Cast Special

Mob Wives would be nothing without "Anthony Graziano's daughter," Renee Graziano. The star of Vh1's new hit show shared a kitchen with Good Morning America correspondent Lara Spencer where they cooked Renee's secret meatball recipe. Unlike most of her scenes on the show, Renee wasn't screaming or crying during this segment. Drita D'Avanzo also talks to the host about wanting to protect her kids, and Karen Gravano mentions the lame book she's writing. Carla Facciolo also gave an exclusive. Enjoy!

Mob Wives Recap: Drita D'Avanzo is Drunk, Lee D'Avanzo is Upset About Karen Gravano's Book

All of the girls are having a girls' night out in NYC. Renee Graziano says that she thinks she deserves the best and she only rolls VIP when she goes out. To prove it, she proceeds to tell her waiter that she’s spoiled and all of his attention belongs on their table.

Karen Gravano says “it’s actually kind of annoying” that Renee likes to be the center of attention. Karen speaks the truth! Before we know it, Renee is introducing herself to a table of men as “Anthony Graziano’s daughter,” before she throws her entire body on a dude on the dance floor. He needs to go home and soak in sanitizer.

Hold on, lil dude. Renee is a whole lotta woman!

Back in Staten Island, Karen and Drita D'Avanzo meet up at a restaurant. Karen says that the first time she met Drita, Drita said that she was going to kick Karen’s a*s. We’re being reminded that Drita likes to fight. Again.

Renee brings one of her girlfriends along to a “favorite place” of hers, which is really just code for a plastic surgeon’s office. Renee’s going for “a chemical peel, with lasers.” Carla Facciolo later shows up to Renee’s house because she heard that Renee had a face peel. Renee opens the door and her entire face is fire engine red, literally. Renee's new face in progress was HIDEOUS!

Carla tells Drita that she’s been with her boyfriend for over a year. Drita asks if Carla thinks Lee would be okay with Drita dating. Carla’s like, ‘um, NOOOO!’ Drita claims that the cops come when she and Lee fight because they “go to war.” Poor thing has no idea that abusive relationships are NOT healthy.

Drita D'Avanzo drunk birthday party

It’s Drita’s birthday! Drita, clearly still very bat sh!t in love, blushes when she talks about her locked up loser. “Lee was excellent when it came to my birthday!”  To numb the pain of his absence, she begins drinking in the limo and has “intentions on getting f*cked up.”

Carla’s boyfriend sits next to Renee at the bar at Drita's party and he tells Renee that he would be with her if he wasn’t with Carla. Renee freaks out and tells him to stay away from her. Renee was drunk. I don't know if I can believe Renee.

Drita is now completely effed up and she falls down in the middle of the dance floor, in heels. Looks like a typical night while clubbing in Hollywood to me! The next morning, Drita’s laying in bed saying that she wants someone to put her out of her misery. “I think of the men that bring hot chicks home and then they wake up and see sea monkeys in the bed.” Love her.
