Teresa Giudice revealed what Real Housewives of New Jersey “lacked,” shaded season 14 as “toxic,” and shared how she’s different off-camera. Plus, the 53-year-old danced on stage with Whitney Rose amid reports of her $3 million tax debt with husband Luis Ruelas.

Last season, several castmates attacked Teresa over her relationship with Luis. Some of the fights were so intense that it was hard to watch. At the time, the cast was deeply divided in a war between Teresa and her sister-in-law, Melissa Gorga.

“What we lacked on our show that [Real Housewives of Salt Lake City has] is comedy,” said Teresa, in a video shared by Centennial World Pod Network on TikTok. “You want to have fun. You wanna laugh. … You don’t want it to be so toxic and so stressful, and for what? And I feel like that’s what happened with our show.”

“It got so dark,” she went on. “I mean, you saw it … I feel like everyone that really knows me, they’re like, ‘That’s not you, the Teresa that we see on TV.’ Cause I’m so fun to hang out with. And everyone always tells me how funny I am … Where’s that Teresa?”

“That Teresa is around with my friends,” she added. “But not when I’m filming with my old cast members. Yeah, that doesn’t happen.”

Around the same time, Teresa let loose on stage at a live performance in Sydney, Australia, with Whitney Rose. In the performance, shared by @so.many.receipts via @bravosnarkside on Instagram, Teresa got down on all fours and whipped her hair in a continuous circle. She then rolled onto her neck before bringing her legs behind her head.

Later, after Whitney joined in, they grabbed hands and spun around in a circle.

Back in June, Teresa opened up about her financial situation.

“I’m not running from anything,” said the star on her Turning The Tables podcast. “There’s a lot being said lately, and I get it. Some of it is from years ago, and being pulled into the present. I’ve made changes to my team to make sure everything is being taken care of properly. Anyone that’s ever dealt with tax-related issues knows it’s not something that gets resolved overnight. It’s a long process, but I’m confident in the people around me now, and I am focused on all the opportunities ahead.”
