Last night on the Bravo TV show Watch What Happens Live, The Real Housewives of New Jersey star Danielle Staub performed LIVE a new single titled Real Close and managed to actually impress the hell out of me. Now, it wasn’t the best live performance I’ve never heard but the fact that Danielle not only sang live (a feat not accomplished by any of the other Housewives stars who are peddling their own songs) but sang fairly well. Danielle dueted with “lesbian superstar” singer Lori Michaels and, well, you’ll just have to hear it to believe it:
First came “Tardy for the Party.” Then came “Money Can’t Buy You Class.” And now there’s “Real Close,” the first song from Danielle Staub — and the third single originating from a Real Housewives star. Unlike Atlanta‘s Kim Zolciak and New York City‘s Countess LuAnn de Lesseps, the New Jersey star skipped the kicky dance track in favor of a more melodic tune. Calling the love song a “tortured lullaby” before debuting it on Watch What Happens Live Monday night, the reality star sat down at an electric piano next to songwriter Lori Michaels, who composed the ballad, played the piano and even shared vocals with Staub. As the song ended, Staub leaned in for what looked like was going to be a kiss. How did the performers fare? After the final notes faded away, host Andy Cohen described the performance as “really big,” then invited the ladies to join him for a (very) brief chat. Noting their apparent musical chemistry, he asked if the women were more than just duet partners. But Staub wouldn’t say. Instead, she said they got close writing and performing the song. Added Staub: “Were you tortured?”
OK, putting aside the obviously fake lesbian romantic tension Danielle and Lori tried to pull on camera, I think Danielle did a great job with this performance. Considering how low the bar has been set by the other singing Housewives, I wasn’t expecting much from Danielle‘s performance last night but … she did impress me. No, it’s not like I’ll run out and buy any of her music but she deffo has won my respect as the best singer of the Housewives ilk … now that is quite an accomplishment.
