Get ready for a new season of big hair and even bigger drama in the Garden State. The wealthiest ladies in Franklin Lakes, NJ — Caroline Manzo, Dina Manzo, Jacqueline Laurita, and Teresa Giudice — dropped by NBC’s TODAY Wednesday to dish the dirt on the forthcoming second season of Bravo’s ratings hit The Real Housewives of New Jersey.

Noticably absent from the gabfest was former “prostitution whore” Daniella Staub — who has refused to join her castmates on their Season 2 promo tour.

The Real Housewives of New Jersey return to Bravo in a special season premiere event on Monday, May 3 @ 10 PM.
