"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.
