NEW JERSEY, CALIFORNIA: Melissa Gorga from 'Real Housewives of New Jersey' faced criticism for her response to a minor earthquake, with some fans perceiving her reaction as exaggerated.

Despite the earthquake being relatively mild, Gorga called 911 in response to the tremor. Taking to Instagram, she shared a home security video seemingly poking fun at the situation.

In the video, although the house didn't visibly shake, rattling noises could be heard, along with two audible screams from the reality star. Many fans questioned the necessity of her reaction, as they believed the earthquake didn't cause significant movement or damage. "EARTHQUAKE in NJ! Omg!!” she captioned the post. 

Fans didn't hold back in mocking Gorga for her exaggerated reaction to the minor earthquake, noting that nothing inside the house appeared to have moved during the tremor.

"Really y'all? Cali reporting here! There is NOTHING MOVING! Ur camera isn't even shaking. The door barely opened. The wine bottles seem perfectly fine. We are very fortunate in America with our earthquakes when other countries are left with devastation and collapsed buildings," a fan wrote on Instagram.

"Am I the only one that doesn't see anything moving," said another. "You called 911....for an earthquake?" asked another one.  Some pulled her legs, calling her house too strong to withstand such a huge earthquake. "GORGA, come build my house.....not even a centemeter of movement. Gorga builds STRONG....." "That's really just Teresa banging the door," added another. "What was all that noise and nothing moved," asked one more.
