Just because she has a low voice and no boobs doesn’t mean crasher Michaele Salahi should make her “Premiere” party “Premier.” Jeez, buy a dictionary with some stolen funds.

Anyone who lives in DC know the Salahis are known to be stingy and broke, but now they’re crashing the White House as part of their skillful PR campaign for themselves to showcase their whirlwind and glamorous lifestyle. Unfortunately for them, they have some legal messiness to tend to, and it isn’t just because they crashed federal property and threw the Secret Service under a bus.
The Real Housewives stars (wait–isn’t Tareq a male?) have quite a few skeletons in the closet, including debt, unfiled taxes, and suing of various relatives. And, oh yeah, they aren’t even shooting the episodes in their own house, rumor has it. Oops.
For a somewhat complete list of legal/ethical/mostly hilarious issues, check out CNN’s post about the Salahis.
So here’s a question: in the day and age of hyper-political correctness, one has to wonder a few things. The White House should be privy to the most advanced security in the world. After all, the Savior, aka President Obama, is housed there, along with an inspirational organic veggie garden and Sasha Fierce and Malia. Would crashers with much less, ahem, exotic names gotten access to the Chosen One and his recession-aloof Thanksgiving Dinner? Just a thought…
The White House is supposed to be the most secure place on Earth, so why were Tareq and Michaele Salahi, “stars” of the Real Housewives of DC (to be aired next year), able to crash Obama’s invitation-only dinner honoring the Prime Minister of India?
The celebuwannabes, who are rumored to be worth a combined fortune of approximately ten dollars, did some self-promoting on their Facebook, which is likely to get them, as well as the secret security guys who allowed these famemongers into the White House, in some serious hot water.
The couple wrote on their Facebook:
“I was honored to be invited to attend the First State Dinner hosted by President Obama & [sic] the First Lady to honor India,” says Michaele Salahi on her Facebook page. “In June 2010, the America’s Polo Cup will be between INDIA & the UNITED STATES [sic].”
Still no word on if the Bravo cameramen were able to make it through the “strict security” to get the best shots. Now if only Obama could have several takes before being shown on national television. But hey, he’s a bit of a White House crasher himself, showing up without the necessary documents to gain access to the Oval Office.
