The ladies of Bravo's The Real Housewives of New Jersey might try to live lavish lifestyles with diva personalities but new reports reveal their salaries are seriously slacking when compared to the other Real Housewives franchises.

Dina Manzo & Jacqueline Laurita Go to War on Twitter

A source told Radar Online Wednesday, "Dina Manzo is earning $100,000 for this current season, with an option to return for another run, with a salary increase. New cast members Nicole Napolitano, Teresa Aprea and Amber Marchese are earning $60,000 for their work. Amber has been telling friends her salary wouldn't even cover her clothing allowance for one year!"

For show veteran Melissa Gorga, she makes $250,000 for the season.

Head honcho Teresa Giudice once made the most out of all of her cast mates with $650,000 per season, according to All Things Real Housewives. It's not clear how much she is bringing in this time around; but while that's pretty generous, it is minimal when it comes to The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills and The Real Housewives of New York cast, with the exception of Giudice.

A production source shared the salaries of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills stars.

"Lisa Vanderpump, Kyle Richards, and Yolanda Hadid are each earning the most at $500,000. Kim Richards and newcomer Lisa Rinna will be making $450,000."

The insider added that while Bravo is not open to coughing up tons of money for its reality stars, it would have been possible for the New Jersey ladies to bring in more money if they had strategized.

"It's no secret that the network pays very little to new cast members because there are no guarantees that it will work out. Furthermore, Bravo is very cheap when it comes to pay for the reality stars of the Housewives franchises, and doesn't want to pay more than they have too in order to keep someone. The housewives from New Jersey could have gotten a lot more money if they had brokered the deal as a group instead of individuals."
