She's caused one of The Real Housewives of New Jersey to quit the show and is raising eyebrows with her just-released sex tape. Now, Danielle Staub is teasing lesbian fans with the idea that she might, indeed, be in a relationship with a woman.
Staub appeared on the Bravo show Watch What Happens Live on Monday night with lesbian singer-songwriter Lori Michaels. The two performed a duet of the love song "Real Close" while seeming to get awfully close.
After the performance, host Andy Cohen asked Staub if the song meant she and Michaels were in a relationship. Leaning into Michaels with her arm around her, Staub answered, "We're not saying anything other than we're together doing this song, 'Real Close.'" Staub then continued to get close to Michaels and at one point started running her fingers through her hair.
On Tuesday, Staub posted a thank you to her fans on Twitter for "supporting me with love and kindness in my song 'Real Close'; bless my gf Lori Michaels."
Earlier this year Real Housewives of Atlanta star Kim Zolciak announced that after pairing with DJ Tracy Young for her song "Tardy for the Party," the two started dating.
Watch the performance and the interview clip here.
