Last week Kiki Barth answered which housewife bought their social media followers. Kiki said,“You know, that lady. I’ve seen it myself. Not Teresa, the other one.” Andy replied, “Melissa?” Kiki continued, “Yes, Melissa. I’ve seen it myself.”
Andy then reminded the ladies that this isn’t the first time Melissa Gorga was accused of buying followers. Alexia Nepola also insisted Melissa buys her social media followers. Chanel Ayan also has accused Melissa of buying Instagram followers. On Instagram, Melissa Gorga is one of the most followed Real Housewives with nearly 3 million followers, landing her under Lisa Vanderpump.
Melissa went on a rant denying she buys followers on her podcast on Thanksgiving.
She said, “She’s (referring to Kiki) seen that I buy followers and I’m like, like, it’s like they’re bothered that I have more. I don’t understand. It’s like, like, let’s just be like, like, funny about it for a second. I’ve been on TV for 14 years. Right? I mean, I don’t know. Maybe it’s a cute family I have. Maybe they wanna see, like, my cute hubby and my kids since, you know, they watch them grow up. Maybe that has something to do with it.
Or, you know, maybe it’s the extremely successful boutique that I own, that I have a huge customer base from, like hello that all buy from me and follow me. First of all, envy has 200 and over 250,000 followers. Envy by itself. Okay? I don’t know. Maybe listen to this podcast, Joe. Maybe they’re big fans of On Display, so they follow me. I mean, what the heck do they talking about? I have multiple brand partnerships. Right? I don’t know. Maybe my followers just like, they like my singing. They follow me because I sing on display.”
Melissa has been getting called out for years in regards to buying followers even back during twitter days. Melissa also opened up an Instagram account earlier this year. When Melissa opened up the On Display podcast Instagram account, viewers said they’d be paying attention to her follower count and if her followers were robots. Melissa shares the podcast page on her main account that has nearly 3 million followers weekly and collabs with the page and is at over 9,000 followers.
