Judge Stops Release Of 'Real Housewives' Sex Tape
PATERSON, N.J. (CBS) ―
One of the stars of Bravo's "The Real Housewives of New Jersey" has stopped an ex-boyfriend from releasing a sex tape -- at least temporarily.
A judge on Wednesday ordered an injunction banning the release of any sexually explicit video or pictures of Danielle Staub and her former boyfriend Stephen Zalewski pending a hearing next month.
Staub, of Wayne, said Zalewski is trying to get back at her because she broke up with him last year. She said she was videotaped without her knowledge.
Staub filed a lawsuit Wednesday in Paterson that alleges invasion of privacy, defamation and intentional infliction of emotional distress.
A call seeking comment from Zalewski was not immediately returned Wednesday.
The show premiered on Tuesday, May 12.
