Less than a week after she was outed for gettin' tipsy and grabbing crotch at the high-profile wedding of Blue Star Jets owner Todd Rome, "Real Housewife of New York" Countess LuAnn de Lesseps can't stop bragging about how she is working on a book deal on ... wait for it ... etiquette.

"I am working on this book deal and I am going to be the new Emily Post," de Lesseps has been babbling to pals. "I will be giving people advice on my experience being a countess."

De Lesseps is something of a countess by marriage. Her husband, Alexandre Count de Lesseps, is a French aristocrat. A rep for the roaring royal confirmed that she is shopping a manners tome and that there is "a lot of interest, but nothing has been signed yet."

Bless her for trying to make a career post-reality television, but maybe she had to tweak that proposal just a bit from proper politeness to how to save face after making a fool of yourself in public. Now that one would fly off the shelves. Emily Post for a whole new generation of trash!
