Mob Wives Season 4 Premiere Ep 401

Mob Wives season 4 premiered tonight and it was definitely an episode not to be missed. The show opened with a headline that came across the screen saying "Mob Wives Has Given You 3 Epic Seasons" followed by "This Season Has New Blood". Only Jenn Graziano could give us this kind of intro going into season 4 of Mob Wives. I love it! The season begins with Renee talking about how she's been busy expanding her Mob Candy shoe line by adding clothes to it. She is also working on her Mob Candy fashion show that's coming up. The BO$$ B**ch is back!!! Her baby boy AJ's job fell through in Florida so she's glad that he's home with her. Renee, calls Big Ang where they talk about going to 1920's costume party in Philadelphia that is thrown by Renee's friend Alicia DiMichele. Drita is also going too. Renee explains that she's known Alicia's husband Eddie Garofalo since she was a kid. He is allegedly associated with the Colombo crime family in New York and is currently in jail awaiting to be sentenced from everything to murder conspiracy to racketeering. Big Ang says she's known Eddie and his family for years and that they have bad blood with Karen's family. Therefore it's probably a good idea that Karen's in Arizona. Alicia was also arrested with her husband for embezzlement and plead guilty. Renee explains that her dad and Eddie were actually in the same jail together. According to the papers she's known as the wise gal. Renee thinks that the only reason that the feds are trying to take Alicia down with Eddie is so that he can become a rat which isn't going to happen.

Big Ang has Drita and Renee over to her house where she tells them that she and her husband Neil want to have a baby together. Drita and and Renee are just as shocked as we are about this. Their facial expressions to hearing this was priceless. Ang thinks that she should get a surrogate to carry the baby. Renee and Drita don't know how they feel about that. 

Renee has a model call for her Mob Candy launch party and she invites Alicia to help her.When Renee can't find the right girl to be the face of Mob Candy, Alicia suggests her friend Natalie who is also from Philly who she thinks is a mini version of Renee.

Drita tells her husband Lee who is officially home from jail living with her and their kids, that their oldest daughter Aleeyah is being bullied by some girls in school. Lee's suggestion is to break bones and ask questions later. 

Big Ang has Drita and Alicia over to her house. Alicia explains to them just what exactly that bad blood is between her husband's family and Karen's family. It turns out that Karen's dad Sammy the Bull killed Alicia's father in-law. It was known as "Gotti's Last Hit" that he ordered Sammy to do before he cooperated with the feds. Alicia says that she doesn't like that Karen wrote a book (Mob Daughter) about her dad killing 19 men (including Alicia's father in-law), without thinking about how the family members felt about it. 

Natalie kills it at Renee's Mob Candy photo shoot. In this scene we learn that Natalie runs her own funeral home in Philly. Renee calls Natalie a "mini Renee". Renee says that working with her Mob Candy has made her stay focused and want her to stay on the right track with her recovery. 

When Alicia shows up at Renee's Mob Candy photo shoot, she lets Renee know that she told Drita and Ang that she's not okay with the fact that Karen brags about her father without caring that its affecting the family members who he killed (including her family). Alicia says that she didn't realize that being around the New York girls was gonna have to make her deal with things that her husband did. Renee says that Karen has always been her friend and she helped her get through her addiction. Renee says that she's not gonna stop being friends with Karen nor Alicia's husband Eddie. Renee also says that Alicia trying to come into their group knowing that she has issues with Karen isn't going to work well.

Big Ang and Drita go to meet Natalie for lunch. In the beginning, it started to go good. That is, until Natalie has one too many drinks and started not making sense. As if that wasn't bad enough, Natalie eats off of Ang's plate. I love Drita's remark to when Natalie eats off of Ang's plate "we don't know each other like that". Drita says that if this is how Natalie's gonna be with drinking all the time, then this may not be the best idea for her to be the face of Renee's Mob Candy line. 

At Renee's Mob Candy launch Renee and AJ look on as they watch Natalie make her debut on the runway as the face of Mob Candy. Even though Natalie tripped when she walked off the runway, Renee was still very happy with the how her Mob Candy launch turned out. I'm so proud of Renee she really has come a long way these past 3 seasons (going into season 4). 

Ang tells Alicia that she and Drita had lunch with Natalie and that they were so confused by her. Ang explains that Renee is still in recovery and she needs to be around people who are stable unlike Natalie who is over hearing this whole conversation. Looks like the New York veterans aren't feeling these rookies from Philly. This is sure to be a very interesting season not to be missed. Be sure to watch next week's episode of Mob Wives titled "Caught On Tape" Thursday at 10 pm on vh1. 

Did Karen Gravano Get Kicked Off Mob Wives Because of Alicia DiMichele's Family Ties With Her Dad?

Mob Wives season 4 is just one day away and fans are all wondering why veteran Karen Gravano won't be returning this season, but it could have something to do with rookie new comer Alicia DiMichele being on the show.

Vh1 released another sneak peek clip tomorrow the premiere that shows Alicia DiMichele explaining to Drita and Big Ang why she has a problem with Karen. Alicia says that Karen's dad killed her father in-law. Alicia also explains that Karen's book Mob Daughter is glorifying the 19 men that her dad killed including the murder of Alicia's father in-law.

@KarenGravanoVH1 @ChiaraSoprano1 The truth is I was only asked to be on the show after you were fired.This is not the storyline,it's history

@AliciaDiMichele @ChiaraSoprano1 and that was not the truth honey you were not allowed to be on the show if I was able to voice my side
— Karen Gravano (@KarenGravanoVH1) December 4, 2013

Both these ladies took to twitter today to try to talk about Karen wasn't on the show anymore. Karen believes it was Alicia's husband Edward Garafolo (who's currently away in jail) who made the decision to only let his wife be on the show if Karen was off it or else he was going to sue vh1. Alicia says that she was only asked to be on the show after Karen had already been fired from vh1. Personally I hope these two can work this out. It would be great to see Karen come back on the show. This is definitely going to be a very interesting season not to be missed. Don't forget to tune into Mob Wives season 4 premiere tomorrow on vh1 at 10 pm.

Mob Wives Season 4 Premiere Ep 401 Sneak Peek

In just 3 more days Mob Wives season 4 (New Blood) will return and vh1 has just released the sneak peek to the episode.

The sneak peek begins with Big Ang and Drita meeting one of the new girls named Natalie Guercio at lunch. First impressions are always tough when you meet anyone whether it's someone who's in the mob or just some regular joe. In the beginning of this scene, we learn that Natalie owns her funeral home in Philly. Right away Big Ang and Drita get a bad vibe from Natalie. She orders two drinks and goes off about how she has a couple of ex's and one who's a "rat". Drita notices that Natalie's stories about her ex's arent making sense and that she may have had a little too much to drink. To make matters a little worse, Natalie eats off of Ang's plate. By the end of this scene, Big Ang and Drita aren't too sure if Natalie's the right fit to be Renee's Mob Candy model. Tune into the season 4 premiere of Mob Wives this Thursday on vh1 at 10 pm. 

Renee Graziano EXCLUSIVE Interview About Season 4 "NEW BLOOD Is More Like BAD BLOOD"

There's been so much buzz about the new season of Mob Wives scheduled to air Dec 5th on VH1. A few weeks ago VH1 released a short video teaser of season 4 titled New Blood Who's In? Who's Out? that left fans wanting to see than just wine glasses clicking together and splashing everywhere. A few days later, a photo below of the season 4 cast was released on VH1's site that left fans with so many questions. What's NEW BLOOD mean? Where's Carla, Karen and Ramona? Who are the two new girls?

Renee Graziano reached out to me on twitter and wanted to me to do an interview with her about season 4 of Mob Wives for the mob wives sit down blog. I always love talking to Renee. She is always so much fun to talk to. She's one of those people who tells it like it is no matter what. She speaks the TRUTH 100% whether you want to hear it or not and I love that about her. When fans last saw Renee in season 3 of Mob Wives, her house had been robbed, she had received a disturbing letter from her ex husband Junior from an unknown address. Not knowing where the letter came from or if Junior was out of jail (and fearful for her life), Renee made the decision to move into a new house with her son AJ to start a new beginning for the both of them. As if making one move wasn't already a good thing for her to do Renee made another BIG move, but it turned out to be another good decision that she made for herself. She decided to go to rehab and get clean and sober from taking prescription pain pills. Once she completed her rehab in Florida, Renee came back to the island a brand new woman ready to develop her own shoe line called Mob Candy. By the end of the season her baby boy AJ (who was with her all along the way to support her through her journey) made the decision that all moms out there hate to see happen for their kids which was to leave the nest and move not just out of her house but out of the state and down to Florida. The interview that Renee gave me (seen below) was in true RENEE fashion, REAL and straight to the point.

Can you tell us anything about what's to come on season 4 of Mob Wives?

What I can tell you about season 4 is it def won't be boring...Lots of Bullshit n Dirt flying just hope one of the new girls don't end up with it on their face

For some of us die hard Mob Wives fans a lot of us want to know what "NEW BLOOD" means for this season?

New Blood...Its more like Bad Blood if you ask my opinion lol.

Many people want to know why Carla, Karen and Ramona are not coming back? There's been so much buzz online about them lately. Can you tell us anything about why they're not coming back for another season? How do you feel about them not returning?

All I will say about the girls that aren't returning is its a shame but there's no love loss I'm sure BUT I DO MISS KAREN LOTS at least she was ALWAYS LOYAL TO ME...

What can we expect to see from you and/or AJ this season?

As for me and AJ- we are back at being the awesome mother and son team!! He's my buddy and I love him as a mother loves her child but also as a best friend. 

Anything else you want to tell us about season 4 of Mob Wives?

Season 4 hasn't been easy for me and although there are times I would like to walk away from it all because of all the drama and bullshit I do it because I'm not a quitter and there are things people can learn from experiences.

Thanks again Renee for doing this interview. You're the first person that I've done an interview with for this blog. This is so cool!!!

Anytime!!!

Mob Wives Season 4 SUPER TRAILER SECRETS, LIES, BETRAYAL & WARS

Secrets, lies, betrayal & wars is what you see roll across the super trailer of Mob Wives season 4. Fans have been eagerly waiting for vh1 to release this super trailer ever since they released the photo above and the promo video of the new blood (or new girls) driving in on Renee, Drita and Big Ang. 

After watching this super trailer all I have to say is that producer Jenn Graziano has another hit season on her hands. The promo starts with Ang saying "maybe she's not the girl we knew, maybe she's a completely different person". Next, we see one of the new girls, Alicia DiMichele listening to something on her video and Renee saying "I'm on the f**king tape" and Drita saying that she's not scared of nobody. My first reaction to this was "omg these girls are back to being the ones we love again". Drita being that fiery red head that we all know and love who wants to beat everyone's face in the ground (which I love by the way). Renee being the boss's daughter ready to kick anyone's a$$ if anyone ever tries to disrespect her or her family. And of course finally we have Big Ang back with her funny one liners that we all know and love trying to keep the peace amongst everyone. With the new girls from philly coming onto the island trying to be like them it is bound to be a shit show or as I like to call it the veterans vs the rookies. Looks like the girls Alicia and Natalie who hail from the city of brotherly love aren't so brotherly after all. Take rookie Natalie for example, she makes it very it clear to the veterans where she's from and that people from south philly don't stand down to people like Drita and Renee and Big Ang from Staten Island. She also calls Renee a rat. We also get to see the girls find out in the paper that Alicia and her husband were arrested for embezzlement, racketeering extortion, and murder conspiracy. Alicia thinks that Renee is leaking stuff to the media about her and her husband being arrested. You don't want to miss season 4 of Mob Wives when it premieres next Thursday at 10 pm on vh1.      

Mob Wives Season 4 New Blood Premieres Dec. 5th Video

Take a look above at your new Mob Wives season 4 cast. Back in August Mob Wives Sit Down previously reported that Carla was not going to be part of the season 4 cast. It was also previously reported on the sit down blog that Karen Gravano will also not be returning for season 4 as well. Also not returning for season 4 is Ramona Rizzo. While it is not yet known as to why Ramona won't be on the new season of Mob Wives, we wish her and Karen and Carla all the best in whatever they decide to do in the future. The theme for season 4 is new blood meaning out with the old and in with the new (sort of). As you can see from the picture above, the only two original cast members from season 1 that will be on season 4 of Mob Wives is Renee Graziano and Drita Davanzo. The only cast member from season 2 that will be on Mob Wives season 4 is everyone's favorite Big Ang. Some of the new blood cast members that make up this season are Alicia DiMichele and a girl named Natalie Guercio (who is the face of Renee Graziano's Mob Candy line) round out the rest of the cast for season 4. Below is a teaser sneak peek for it.

Mob Wives season 4 will premiere on December 5th on vh1. Check back at the mob wives sit down blog for the latest news about the Mob Wives.

Karen Gravano Says She Will NOT Be on Season 4 of Mob Wives (Physically)

Earlier this week a fan tweeted me about how they heard that Karen Gravano wasn't going to be a part of the Mob Wives season 4 cast because "one of the new girls" supposedly kicked her off the show. I had heard a rumor that Karen wasn't going to be on season 4, but I didn't believe (and still don't believe) that the part of this fan's story where they said that one of the new girls kicked her off the show. The fan told me to look up the video interview that Karen did recently "with some radio thing" (the fan didn't tell me where to go to find it so I had nothing to go off of) to watch what she said. I finally came across the interview that this fan was talking about (posted below).

Even though Karen couldn't go into much detail (due to legal confidential things) in the video above as to why she won't be on the show this season, the video wasn't as bad as the fan claimed it to be. All Karen said was that Alicia's DiMichele's husband (who's in jail for something else) talked to the producers and asked that Karen physically not be on the show anymore because her dad Sammy "the bull" was responsible for killing his father. With that said, Karen did say that even though she won't be on the show physically, its her father's history that he has with Alica's father in-law that will be played out on season 4 of Mob Wives. So basically, it was not Alicia herself who wanted Karen off the show it was actually an agreement between her husband and the producers. Karen said that if she's ever able to be brought back on the show, it would be under certain agreements. So I guess it goes to show you that not everything that you read about on twitter is true. Be sure to watch Karen's interview above (she's only in the first 10 min). Don't forget to tune into an all new season of Mob Wives Season 4 on December 5th on vh1. This is certainly going to be a great season.
