Long Island Medium Theresa Caputo is going back on the road, with 13 new tour dates announced, as the TV star faces a scandal threatening her credibility.
Beginning in April, the You Can’t Make This Stuff Up! author will take her act through the Southeast with dates in Florida, Georgia and Alabama; onto the Midwest through Indiana, Ohio and Michigan; and north of the border for three dates in Ontario, Canada.
As RadarOnline.com previously reported, Caputo, 47, took more than a month off the road after a Dec. 17 show in Westbury, New York, when her show was picked apart in a newspaper review from the Long Island Press.
In a Dec. 21 review, reporter Jaime Franchi said she had major doubts about Caputo’s authenticity after watching her botch a reading.
"I wasn’t buying it, any of it," Franchi wrote. "For me, this unbelievable experience was simply that: not to be believed. In my humble opinion, Caputo is a damn good performer, and she’s got undeniably likable sass and charisma.
"I just don’t think she speaks with the dead."
It was the latest in a series of hits for the TLC star, who was skewered by fans and fellow celebrities skeptical of the schtick that’s landed her a plum spot on the network.
