These Women NEED To Be On 'RHONJ' Season 7

by Marenah Dobin

My life has been seriously lacking due to the absence of Real Housewives of New Jersey. But obviously, I would have been angry if Bravo had the nerve to film a season while Teresa Giudice was locked up in prison. I stand by my opinion that Real Housewives of New Jersey would be nothing without her and we all know that I am right. So thank god she is back with her family and filming RHONJ again. So far, Bravo has confirmed that Teresa Giudice and Melissa Gorga are back and that Jacquile Laurita is returning. But the network isn't letting any other information slip just yet. What's up with that? I just need some answers!

I desperately want to know who else will be a part of the cast for Season 7. Sadly, I have no inside scoop, but I have some brilliant thoughts of my own. I have a really good idea of which ladies would make up the ideal Real Housewives of New Jersey cast next season.

RHONJ is my jam, but it could definitely use a shake up. And by shake up, I mostly mean a return of some old familiar faces. It is time for Real Housewives of New Jersey to have the ideal cast by hiring these ladies as full-time Housewives.

I want Season 1 Dina Manzo back. It was great seeing her all zen and whatnot last season, but I would die to get back the Dina Manzo who we first met. Even as a viewer, I was both scared of her and desperate for her approval. She was sassy and had no qualms standing up for herself or anyone else. I would love to see her on RHONJ in fighting form and preferably with a love interest. I didn't like how private she was on the last season. I need to see more Dina and I need it now.

Danielle Staub will always be iconic in my eyes. I know she was polarizing back in her day, but she made the show. Danielle is smart enough to know how rile up the other women and cool enough to play it off. There was never a dull moment with Danielle. Plus, Danielle has a history with this group and got the boot way too soon. Her story lines seemed very unfinished to me. The OG fans need her back on television.

3. Rosie Pierri

Why hasn't this happened sooner? All of the ladies know Rosie Pierri, and Melissa and Teresa are related to her. Oh, and the viewers all LOVE her. She is fun and feisty, but relatable. Plus, it's about time for a lesbian Real Housewife. It's a prime opportunity to diversify while still being authentic with the story lines since Rosie is already a part of the clique.

I know that this seems a little out of left field, but Snooki would be a great addition to the squad. Obviously, she is a reality TV veteran, and she has really evolved since her Jersey Shore days. She's now married with the cutest kids ever. Snooki already lives in the area and knows Melissa, so it would make sense for her to brought into the group. She's is super likable and could bring a much needed sense of comic relief to the series. I already know that there is going to be a lot of heavy emotion with Teresa's return, so Snooki would be a breath of fresh air.

These are women who have connections to the existing Housewives so their presence would be authentic and much needed for the viewers. Real Housewives of New Jersey would really be in its prime if Bravo took my advice and made these casting decisions!
