Fewer Sparks With DiMarco Absent on 'Jerseylicious' Reunion
The reunion show continued with DiMarco backstage for most of it.

The drama was slightly more toned down this week, but that doesn't mean there weren't plenty of sparks flying on the second part of the "Jerseylicious" reunion Sunday.
With Tracy DiMarco and her fiance having walked off the stage after an explosive (and violent) fight with Gigi Liscio, hostess Jessi Cruickshank moved on to discuss the implosion of the Lombardi-Giove partnership.
The partnership dissolved after Kathy Giove's son, and Anthony Lombardi's salon manager, Filipo Giove, opted to pose for "Playgirl" magazine. Lombardi said Giove could not pose for the magazine and remain salon manager.

Although Lombardi maintained his position, and said it was not on his to-do list to see the photos, Cruickshank showed the photos to the entire cast—much to Lombardi's disgust and Filipo Giove's delight (including the delight of every woman on the stage, even, strangely, his mother).
Discussions later centered on Frankie Buglione's new girlfriend, Brooklyn, and Liscio's reaction—which considering her blatant disregard for people's feelings in the past, was strangely passive.

Olivia Blois Sharpe had the chance during the taping to play host, asking questions of the cast, but the tension rose again during the episode when DiMarco returned to the stage.
After Liscio said she hopes her safety would be considered for the remainder of the taping, DiMarco returned, and began an intense argument with Sharpe concerning whether or not they can really get along.
Ironic much?
The two women discussed how they thought they could start to get along, maybe be friends at some point. DiMarco said she had started to respect Sharpe, but she knew they would never be friends.
Sharpe said she doesn't think DiMarco should treat people the way she does.
And that ends another reunion show, and although Sharpe never confirmed she was taking Filipo Giove up on his offer to go out to California for business, we all know she is a Jersey Girl at heart.
And really, what would the show be without Sharpe's trademark admissions like the fact that she participated in putting together Lombardi's infamous book, but she can "barely speak English?"
