Real Housewives of New Jersey Cast News: Teresa Giudice Did Not Pay for Daughter Gia’s 3KT Girl Group Music Videos
Teresa Giudice's eldest daughter Gia, 13, created a new all-girl singing group over the summer with friends Cristianna Cardinale, 14, and Alexa Maetta, 16.
The group, named 3KT, released their first music video Oct. 31 covering Britney Spears' "Circus" and Sunday launched a music video for a holiday song called "Season of Joy," reports People magazine.
The all-girl group scored management from Xist Model & Talent in Montclair, New Jersey, and they've been in the studio busy recording their first tracks.
In September, Teresa announced 3KT on Instagram, posting, "So proud of my baby Gia and her new girl singing group @3ktofficial."
The group's new "Season of Joy" music video depicts the girls singing the catchy holiday tune while dressed in different festive attire and synchronized dancing in a number of locales, including inside a holiday decorated home, New York's Sweet Shop and outside at Bryant Park.
What may come as a surprise to most is that Gia and the girls of 3KT actually have good singing voices.
The dancing in "Season of Joy" is tame compared to 3KT's more provocative music video performance for their cover of Britney Spears' "Circus."
The girls funded their holiday music video, in part, using Kickstarter.
Although there are two other young women in the group from financially capable families, the media targeted Teresa with a ton of criticism that she funded her daughter's music videos while she and husband Joe Guidice owe the government restitution to the tune of hundreds of thousands of dollars.
But TMZ reports Teresa didn't pay one cent for the 3KT videos. Gia's manager, Xist Talent, told TMZ the videos were funded by the management company and private investors.
The videos, according to the manager, cost $5-$8,000 each.
Earlier this year, Teresa and her husband were convicted of bankruptcy fraud charges. Teresa has been sentenced to 15 months. Joe faces three and half years in prison and possible deportation.
