Is Danielle Staub really a cocaine-snorting former stripper with a criminal record? We don’t know for certain.

But is this Real Housewife of New Jersey a perfect pitchwoman for her reality show? No doubt about it.

Interviewed on The Today Show this morning, Staub didn’t shy away from stories in Cop Without a Badge, the 1995 memoir that allegedly details her shady life in Miami under the alias “Beverly Merrill.” Instead, she used the book as a means to promote tonight’s new episode.
