Jacqueline Laurita Denies Call Girl Past, Supplies Proof

"Real Housewives of New Jersey" star Jacqueline Laurita is so sick of the rumors that she worked as a Las Vegas stripper in the early-'90s that she's now fighting back. The Jersey girl is shedding light on proof that she worked hard to pay her bills in Sin City in a daycare -- not on a pole.

"I swear on the life of myself, my husband and my children that I was never a call girl or ever got paid for any sexual favor of any kind, either," Jacqueline told me.

Now, evidence has surfaced that she made her living in a legitimate way as a daycare worker. HuffPost Celeb has the exclusive photo of her 1993 child care professional license. If the "Housewives" star was a stripper, why would she also have a day job?

"Do you honestly think that I am the kind of girl that lies?" Jacqueline asked. "Honestly? Lying is my biggest pet peeve. I am the biggest open book there is. Almost to a fault."

With another season of "Housewives" already filmed and ready to go, Jacqueline insists that the truth about her co-stars will eventually come out -- a fact that should worry the others, not her.

Keeping your mouth shut is always a good option when you have nothing constructive to say.

Why is everyone so willing to believe she was a stripper or call girl? Her husband seems like a straight up guy and rather conservative. I doubt he would marry someone with that kind of past. Why are people not willing to believe she worked hard as a child care worker. Remember she was a young mother and that would seem the best type of job for her so she could take her child to work and still earn a living. Also, even IF she was a stripper does not make her trash. Many college students work as strippers to help pay for school. As long as there are men who want to go see strippers, there will be strippers. I believe she is showing proof because of Teresa who I believe accused her of being a call girl. Teresa is trashy and she would be one that I would most likely suspect of being a call girl at one time. Her husband likes that kind of girl. Jacqueline has a nice marriage and nice family life and I think Teresa is very jealous of that. Jacqueline seems to be the one who most acts like a lady on this show. I wouldn't be so ready to believe she is lying about her past. But who cares? I like her.

Why is this important? What? Who cares. Post a story about people in the world that made a difference.

This might be an oversight on her part, but the article says there are rumors of her being a Las Vegas STRIPPER in the early 90's, and she swears on her husband's and children's lives that she never worked as a CALL GIRL or got paid for sex. Aren't strippers and call girls two completely different things? Is she mincing words or is this just an honest mistake?

There are strippers that work as nurses, clerks or teachers - living a double life. So, what? Besides, that license also expired in 1993...

Not only that, but she was a minor. Obviously, that was a long time ago. It doesn't mean she couldn't have been a call girl at some later point in her life. But, who knows? And who cares?

exactly...I don't get why she's making such a big deal about it...!

RE: the statement:
" HuffPost Celeb has the exclusive photo of her 1993 child care professional license. "

Ummm.....Having proof that a license EXISTS.....is NOT proof that someone
actually utilized that license by working in the daycare field....

One can have a driver's license.....a fishing license.....a daycare license.....
and NEVER......drive....go fishing or .....work in daycare.....

RE: the statement:
" If the "Housewives" star was a stripper, why would she also have a day job? "

Wellllll.......stating you have a job in daycare would lend itself more
to "respectability" than stating your job is a "stripper"......in SOME
situations......and in some "circles".........

I don't know and I don't care.....BUT.....if you're going to state that
you have "proof"......at least have PROOF.....
