John Edwards Mistress Rielle Hunter Desperate To Rehabilitate Image By Going On Reality TV
Aug. 1 2012, Published 7:30 a.m. ET
John Edwards' scandalous mistress Rielle Hunter is so desperate to change her tarnished reputation that she's decided the best way to win people over is to go on a reality show!
48-year-old Rielle is trying hard to land a gig and has approached producers for the Celebrity Apprentice, Dancing with the Stars and even The Bachelorette.
"Rielle admires Donald Trump and says that if he could turn villains like Real Housewives stars NeNe Leakes and Teresa Giudice into lovable TV personalities, then maybe he could do the same for her," a source told the National Enquirer.
Rielle and John broke up this year after she published her book - What Really Happened: John Edwards, Our Daughter, and Me - in which she slammed his deceased wife Elizabeth Edwards.
The book was a major failure, selling a measly 6,000 copies and she was apparently shcoked and disappointed by the poor sales. Rielle was called a heartless schemer by the ladies of The View on her press tour. But none of that is sinking in and she's determined to try and change the public's opinion about her.
"Rielle’s reputation is pretty much mud in the public eye, but she’s delusional enough to think she can turn that around. And the truth is that if anyone can make Rielle Hunter likable, it’s Donald Trump."
Apparently Rielle doesn't understand how much she is hated across the country.
"She seems to have no clue about how the public perceives her. After what she did to Elizabeth Edwards, she’s delusional to think that America would ever tune in to see her dance, let alone find love," a source told the Enquirer.
Shockingly, when a source from Celebrity Apprentice was asked whether Trump would consider Rielle for the show they replied: "Anything's possible."
