Jerseylicious. This show gave us another insight into New Jersey, following the successes of The Real Housewives Of New Jersey and Jersey Shore. Who can forget the drama and entertainment from the world of hair and beauty in the garden state? The show ran from 2010-2013 and followed stylists from hair salons, including The Gatsby Salon, run by Gayle and Christy and Anthony Robert salon, run by Anthony Lombardi, plus The Glam Fairy in Green Brook Township, New Jersey.
The show showed everything from industry rivalry to their friendships, relationships, breakups, and catfights, especially between Tracy and Olivia. Almost as interesting as what would happen next in the show is who would be wearing what. From revealing, outrageous outfits to heavy make-up, spray tans, over-the-top accessories, and huge earrings, the show and its cast mates had a style all of their own. Since the show last aired, what has the cast been doing? Are they still working in the industry, have they settled down, are they on any other shows? Let’s find out.
10 Tracy Dimarco-Epstein
Tracy worked at all 3 salons featured on the show and is an owner of Princess Armor which sells an array of products including shoes, clothing, jewelry, and accessories. She also runs a podcast called Bad Examples with her friend and former Glam Fairy makeup artist, Jessica Romano-Calacione. Tracy was married to Corey Epstein from 2013-2019 and they have 3 children together; Skylar James, Jayden Gene, and Julian Chase. Julian is deaf and has cochlear implants.
9 Olivia Blois Sharpe
Olivia looks very different from her Jerseylicious days. Gone is the heavy makeup and dark fake tan. She goes for a much more understated look these days, as does Tracy. Olivia is now based in New York City and works for herself, having previously worked as the lead makeup artist for both The Gatsby Salon and Anthony Roberts. She also started her own clothing line Two Virgos. Olivia is still popular, having 285k followers on Instagram.
8 Gigi Liscio
Jelena ‘Gigi’ Liscio kept us all hooked with her on-off relationship with Frankie on the show. Gigi is still based in her hometown of New Jersey and still working as a stylist, she posts a lot of inspiration regarding cuts and colors on her Instagram page. She also has her own website, Gigiliscious, where she sells hair accessories and clip-in extensions.
7 Christy Pereira
Christy still works at The Gatsby Salon and is a happily married mom of two to Daniella and Rocco. Christy was pregnant with her daughter on the show. She describes herself as a ‘cheer mom’ and proudly supports her 11-year-old daughter who is on the school cheerleading team. Christy worked at the salon with her mom, Gayle. She posts mainly pics of her kids and family online.
6 Gayle Giacomo
Gayle still has her beautiful long red tresses, though perhaps a more muted shade than on the show. She also still owns The Gatsby Salon and posts pics of her work online. Looking at the rare photos posted of her online, it is obvious she has still maintained her youthful figure and she still looks pretty fabulous.
5 Anthony Lombardi
Anthony is the owner of his own salon and has also written a book called The Glamor State. He writes and posts about entrepreneurship. Anthony says he misses seeing his client’s smiles after he has finished their haircuts, because of the need to wear masks due to COVID. He is currently recruiting for staff and says good staff are hard to find. Anthony is also a proud father.
4 Alexa Prisco
Alexa is the founder of her own company The Glam Fairy which specializes in hair and make-up artistry. She had her own spinoff show, The Glam Fairy from 2011-2012. She is a proud mom to a 9-year-old daughter. She is also looking pretty amazing, having lost weight and trying out new looks with her hair and clothing styles.
3 Mike Aktari
Mike was the ex-boyfriend of both Tracy and Olivia which added to their rivalry and tension on the show. Sadly, Mike was found dead at his Long Island home in 2017. He was just 28. Olivia paid tribute to her personal trainer ex on Instagram in a series of emotional posts, claiming that she would always love him.
2 Corey Epstein
In 2015, Corey pleaded guilty to misdemeanor drug possession. He avoided jail under a plea deal and was sentenced to a conditional discharge after pleading guilty to criminal possession of a controlled substance, namely oxycodone. His wife at the time, Tracy, insisted that her husband legitimately used this substance following injuries from a stabbing injury two years prior.
1 Anthony Tango
Anthony Tango appeared in seasons 4 and 5 of Jerseylicious. Since the show, he has set up his own barbers business, Tango's Barbershop, and also dated an online celebrity, namely beauty influencer and vlogger Carli Bybel who is now expecting a baby due this summer. Exciting!
