There’s no need for psychic powers to anticipate a showdown between Tiffany “New York” Pollard and Teresa Giudice on House of Villains. In a preview clip of the November 7 episode shared by PEOPLE, Victoria Larson reveals to Pollard, 42, that Giudice has plans to nominate her for the Hit List. “I know she’s eager to put me up,” Pollard responds to Larson’s warning.
When producers inquire about her decision to alert Pollard, Larson, 31, admits she was worried that Pollard’s “psychic vision” might come true—referring to the Flavor of Love star’s prediction about leaving soon.
Pollard drops a bold accusation about Luis Ruelas, leaving Giudice visibly shaken
Naturally, Pollard confronts Giudice in her usual fiery style. “You know what? F— you, Teresa, you b—-,” she declares. “You’re really coming for me? Talking about getting me out? You want me gone?”
The confrontation escalates, leaving little room for either woman to finish a sentence. Giudice starts to respond, “I never said…” but Pollard cuts her off, shifting the attack to Giudice’s husband, Luis Ruelas.
“Do you know why Luis actually sent those roses?” Pollard taunts about the bouquet Luis sent four days earlier. “Because he’s guilty! Each rose represents a time he’s cheated on you since you’ve been here.” Giudice fires back with, “You’re disgusting!”
An insider close to Giudice clarified to PEOPLE that Pollard’s accusations were just a tactic to rattle her competitor. According to the source, Luis hadn’t been unfaithful, and Pollard even apologized to him at the premiere party. The 333 roses were symbolic, meant to comfort Giudice by reminding her of her late mother.
Pollard later shared with PEOPLE that facing off with Giudice was “amazing.” She joked about the clash, saying, “If I’m going to battle anyone, it’s going to be Jersey. New York meets New Jersey!” She also called Giudice “a good sport,” noting that their back-and-forth was a lot of fun.
In the previous episode, Pollard had stirred things up by helping set up a confrontation between Giudice and Larsa Pippen during an election challenge. Pippen triumphed in the challenge with a 6-1 vote, with Pollard voting against Giudice to secure a room for herself. Pollard bluntly told Giudice, “I never gave you my loyalty,” during the October 31 episode.
Eventually, Pippen, as the Supervillain of the Week, placed Giudice, Larson, and Camilla Poindexter from Bad Girls Club on the Hit List. In the upcoming episode, the three nominees—Giudice, Larson, and Poindexter—will compete for a chance to escape elimination in a redemption challenge.
Pippen revealed to PEOPLE that she initially allied with Giudice due to their shared Bravo background. However, she kept her alliance discreet. “I didn’t want anyone to think Teresa and I were too close,” the Real Housewives of Miami star explained. Her strategy was to appear relaxed, saying things like, “I’m just here for fun, I don’t care about the money.” But her true aim, she confessed, was victory.
Describing her approach to competition, Pippen shared that she doesn’t let the game get personal. “You can argue and make up, like siblings,” she said. Living in close quarters means conflicts happen, but there’s always “a rainbow at the end of the conflict.”
