People have a hard time saying no to me, and that's just been my blessing.
Michaele Salahi is a model and socialite, who is very active in the Washington, D.C. social scene. Michaele and her husband, Tareq founded America's Polo Cup, one of the highest profile polo events in the United States. They also claim to be owners of the Oasis Winery in Hume, Virginia, but there has been discrepancy and lawsuits over who the true owner is. During the series, Michaele claimed to be a former Washington Redskins cheerleader, but this was also proven to be untrue.
Michaele and Tareq are most well known for being the infamous "White House Crashers." On November 24, 2009, during the filming of The Real Housewives of D.C., they went to a White House State dinner without invitations and managed to be photographed with President Barack Obama. Three days later, the United States Secret Service publicly stated the Salahis had not been invited to the event and should have been prohibited from the event altogether. The Salahis claim no wrongdoing but pleaded the Fifth Amendment and refused to testify to their story during the subsequent investigation. The other Real Housewives were annoyed by the negative attention and press the Salahis brought to the show and the issues was heavily addressed during the reunion.
