Bravo’s well-known singer, actress and unassuming personality on Bravo’s “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills,” Evo Jayne has recently made headlines – but this time around. , not for sparring with Lisa Vanderpump.
In November, Jayne, 49, announced that she would file for divorce from her husband, 81-year-old power attorney Tom Girardi, after 21 years of marriage, citing differences to -believable. Girardi has been in legal hot water with former clients who claim he has been robbed of millions in settlement money. “At one time I had around 80 million or 50 million in cash. That’s all gone, ”Girardi acknowledged as evidence of this fall. “I have no money.”
As Matt Hamilton and Harriet Ryan told the Times on Thursday, “Where all the money went is still a matter of intense deliberation, and neither Jayne nor Girardi’s representatives responded to requests for comment. Some creditors have noticed his much younger wife. Girardi has made Jayne ‘s efforts famous as a recording artist with songs titled’ PAINKILLR ‘and’ XXpen $ ive ‘and as a true TV fan who wants to drop $ 40,000 a month. on clothing, hair and makeup. “
The two met while Jayne, then a single mother at 28, was working as a cocktail waiter at Chasen’s in West Hollywood, where Girardi was a regular. After playing the role of the wife of a high-profile lawyer, Jayne launched a successful career as an electro-pop diva; she spent the late 2000s and 2010s churning out house tours such as “Pretty Mess” and “How Many F—,” which climbed to No. 1 on the Billboard Dance Club song album. She had captured seven of her nine total No.1 club beats before joining the “Real Housewives” team in 2015. “Some people call me cold,” she said in the show’s intro reel . “But that’s not ice – that’s diamonds.”

The Real Housewives franchise has a stellar history with vanity pop projects. Few will forget “Tardy for the Party,” a 2009 novel by Atlanta alumna Kim Zolciak, produced by her Grammy-winning co-star Kandi Burruss; then “Money Can’t Buy You Class” in 2010, a tragedy on New York’s top society, came from Vice-Countess Luann de Lesseps.
But unlike the other women from “Housewives,” Jayne’s train never stopped. In 2018 she published “Pretty Mess,” titled New York Times; and in early 2020, she played Roxie Hart in the Broadway production of “Chicago.”
Here’s a quick recap of Jayne’s musical oeuvre:
“Roller Coaster” (2007)
Like beginners? The singer’s debut single, “Roller Coaster,” hit No. 1 on the Billboard Dance Club’s album – the first of nine songs to top the chart. Fill it, smoke it up, pump it up.
“Pretty Mess” (2010)
Despite her club reputation, Jayne doesn’t sing as loud as she shouts; and in “Pretty Mess,” the title track of her first LP in 2009, she convinces her fans that if she’s joking, she’s already there. (“Everything I bought,” she complains in the racy video.) Also on the record is Sheila E., who is credited as a drummer on the track “Time to Realize,” which as well as producers and co-writers Peter Rafelson and Eric Kupper, who had previously worked with pop legends Madonna, Britney Spears and Cher.
“Ignite the World” (2011)
Then the president of the Italian Lawyers of Assn., Tom Girardi presented the music video for “Party People (Ignite the World)” during the organization’s annual Supreme Court Night in 2011. The participants, many of prominent members of the Southern California legal community, they were less than happy. According to a report published in the Metropolitan News-Enterprise, one described Jayne’s inspiring dance routine as “rock and soft porn.”
“Get it tonight” activity. Flo Rida (2013)
By the late 2000s, house music had been a staple for rapper Flo Rida, who performed pop-dance gold with Kesha on “Right Round” and “Feel It” with DJ Felli Fel, Pitbull, Sean Paul and T-Pain. Neither Rida nor Jayne have seen so much success with their only partner, but at least their memories will always be there.
“How many F—” (2016)
“Hollaback’s Daughter” for nouveau riches, “How Many F—” looks like it was specially designed in a lab to be polished with lips on “RuPaul’s Drag Race”. It also happened that this is Jayne’s first release since he made a shower on “Real Housewives” – and it flows with both bubblegum and poison.
“XXpen $ ive” (2017)
Jayne is the first to confirm in the video full of profanity: “It’s expensive to be me.” Tom Girardi said in a program of “Real Housewives,” “I like that he’s named‘ XXpen $ ive. ‘”He said cautiously:“ It kinda suits you. ”
