ICE CUBES: Reality TV drama in Bensalem

Before the dreaded wooden reality of Kim Kardashian at Harrah’s The Pool and the surreality of Beyoncé at the Revel hotel, spa and casino opening (both in Atlantic City, keep your eyes out for Icepack Illustrated and additional Ice Cubes) there was the unholy "Reality TV Divas Live" thing at Parx Casino in Bensalem.

The hang, consisting of pinot grigo slinger Ramona Singer from Bravo’s Real Housewives Of New York City, queen of mean Tracy DiMarco from Jerseylicious (on the Style Network) and Drita D'Avanzo from VH-1’s Mob Wives (the original NYC one, since Mob Wives Chicago starts this weekend) would have been an inauspicious pre-arranged meeting-of-the-minds (your own joke goes here) until the visibly agitated Singer got persnickety about posing with her other two reality sisters in front of the casino plastic signage backdrop. Singer wouldn’t be in any photos and physically separated herself from the other two during the walk of step-and-repeat shame. The blond Housewives member even made a point of walking out from the scene (an interview forum) and away from the stage while seated with DiMarco and D’Avanzo after Ice photog Scott Weiner asked Singer to move over to join the other divas. “I almost had the pea brain tricked into it because she started to move over and then she realized, 'Hey, that's what I said I won't do' and got up and walked out,” says Weiner.

Maybe Ramona doesn’t like Italian girls. Anyway, the other news (ugh, not news, just stuff I suppose) is that DiMarco announced she had just become engaged and showed off a five-karot diamond ring to prove it. You really have to go out of your way to prove things when you’re talking up reality television stuff.
