When White House-crashers Michaele and Tareq Salahi ditched the other "Real Housewives of DC" for their own premiere party for the show two weeks ago, Michaele explained, "This is for the troops. My dad was a part of the US Army. We wouldn't be here without the troops." Guests were told proceeds from the Salahis' party would go to the charity Honor & Remember, but a charity organizer tells us they're not getting squat.
Tickets for the bash held at a DC gay bar ranged from $25 for general admission to $500 for access to the VIP room. The organization said it was promised 40 percent of the profit but was told recently the packed, cash-bar event didn't make any money. A rep for the Salahis claims they were merely guests of honor: "This was not a Salahi event. They were not privy to the operational and management aspects of this event, nor were they compensated for their appearance."
