SOUTHAMPTON, NEW YORK: Melissa Gorga celebrated Pride Month by wearing a rainbow crochet outfit on June 28. However, the internet quickly accused 'The Real Housewives of New Jersey' star of inviting paparazzi on herself.
Melissa recently made news for her fashion choices after viewers realized she was wearing the same trousers as Teresa Giudice, her estranged sister-in-law and 'RHONJ' co-star. The Envy boutique owner was spotted wearing striped Amanda Uprichard trousers to her daughter's high school graduation last week - the identical trousers Teresa wore to her daughter's convocation just a few weeks previously. Since Melissa joined the successful Bravo program during Season 3 in 2011, the two have been accused of copying one other's ideas. Despite their similar thought patterns, the 'Rockstar' singer and Teresa haven't spoken in nearly a year.
Melissa pumps gas in sexy monokini and see-through rainbow gown
Melissa left very little to the imagination in a see-through, $269 rainbow net dress from Pitusa over a monokini paired with a a yellow Chanel bag as she stopped to get gas in Southampton, New York. The floor-length dress was color-blocked in pink, orange, yellow, green, and blue and in keeping with the weekend's Pride theme in the Big Apple. The 'RHONJ' star looked fit and slim with her long dark hair parted in the middle and flowing down her back as she flashed her cleavage, taut abs, and honed legs.
Melissa wore oversized round-lensed sunglasses on her sun-kissed face, carried a large, yellow tote bag, and slipped her feet into wedge-heeled sandals. Her son Gino Gorga accompanied her on the errand.
'Never known paparazzi to just hang out at the gas station pumps'
On Twitter, fans shared their theory that, "She’s really losing it omg like you are in New Jersey paparazzi aren’t coming unless you call them." Others reacted to the tweet saying, "I have never known paparazzi to just hang out at the gas station pumps…anyone?" One quipped, "Imagine being at the next pump getting gas and watching Melissa in her fishnet dress being photographed by her hired paparazzi." "This seems so posed and fake!" wrote another.
One user noted, "I guess she thinks this is normal? You know this was planned cause honestly this isnt a normal look you see with someone at a gas station pumping gas." Some users think, "To get people to quit talking about all the lawsuits they’ve been facing. Big yikes." Another confused fan asked, "Whatever this is I don’t understand. She’s actually an attractive person- but this get up, at this gas station- I’m just feeling confused. What is this? Is this real?" One also added, "Except she’s posing. Look at her hands. She’s not pumping any gas. Anything for attention." Another user tweeted, "Hiring paparazzi to cash in on pride at a gas station is a new level of desperate."
