Katie Ginella might have gotten some new Instagram followers courtesy of Jennifer Pedranti after she suggested they take any racist comments and negativity to Katie’s page (and Tamra Judge’s, too!)
Jen accused the sophomore season Real Housewife of “running a Race PR campaign” at her expense.
Zen Jenn:
Jennifer gave some of her IG followers a suggestion. “[Here’s] a little tip,” began the Real Housewives of Orange County personality.
“There’s a thing on my Instagram where you can click ‘unfollow.’ If you want to tell me I’m a sh*tty person, I’m racist, I’m a sh*tty mom, and a bad mom, please, by all means, unfollow.”
To the people who think Jenn didn’t navigate her friendship with Katie correctly … “I feel good about my friendship with Katie; I tried in my friendship with Katie; I tried to communicate things in my friendship with Katie. It didn’t work out.”
Jennifer made it crystal clear, “I didn’t lie.”
“I believe that everything that I said is exactly my truth.” Jenn tagged Katie’s IG account to make it easier for people to comment on her Insta page rather than hers.
Jennifer couldn’t resist throwing shade at Tamra Judge during her rant. “There’s also a long-running, thirsty housewife who would LOVE to hear all of this. I don’t want to hear it anymore.”

Re: Katie’s “Race PR campaign” …
Jenn took to her IG comments to redirect those who wanted to engage in Katie’s “Race PR campaign” to Katie’s page.
Re: the racism accusations …
Gretchen and Jen posted a video directed at Katie that they quickly removed after receiving backlash.
Katie explained, “There’s a very inappropriate video going around where two girls are pretending to fight, squinting their eyes and making Asian faces to Asian sounds.”
The video shows the busty blondes at the gym pretending to do martial arts. They used sound bites from Asian films.
“I’m back on Housewives,” said Gretchen, who previously left the franchise in 2013 after five seasons, before Jen declared: “And we’re ready to defend ourselves.”
They then began to punch and kick a boxing bag as they mouthed along to a track of what some interpreted as Asian voices. At the end, they high-fived each other and walked away.
