Earlier today Real Housewives of Attention Whoredom husband Tareq Salahi contacted the authorities several times when his wife Michaele Salahi didn't return home after being gone for a day and she didn't take any personal belongings.

When the news first broke TMZ confirmed they had been talking with Tareq on the phone and the guy was actually crying and extremely upset at the thought that his wife was kidnapped. I believe she missed a hair appointment. My husband would fire up the space ship if I missed a hair appointment because alien abduction would be the only reason.

Then when the authorities were involved and said they spoke with Mrs. Attention Whoredom they confirmed she is safe and sound. Mr. Attention Whoredom didn't believe it and believed she was under duress during those phone calls and forced to say those things. 

Well it turns out that Michaele Salahi is boning Journey's lead guitarist Neal Schon, who she also happened to date back in the day. This is the reason she didn't want her husband to know where she was and had no plans to return home. 

Part of me really feels for Tareq (the part that is hoping that this story is true and that he was genuinely upset), but the jaded side thinks this is all for publicity sake. Who can believe anything these two say? 

They crashed a White House party and told a bunch of lies after that just to get themselves in the press. 

What do you think? Publicity stunt or she's turning her whoreish attention elsewhere?
