Ariana Madix: Smarter and Prettier than You!

I don't think Arianna's attitude and behavior is doing her any favors, either. I found myself getting annoyed when Schwartz invited everyone to Lisa Vanderbuck's Lake Tahoe bar/club and Arriana decided she would speak for everyone. 

OK, but as was pointed out, no one there disagreed.  I suppose they could have feared disagreeing.  But think about it - if, say, Lala did, you really think she would have stayed silent, let someone speak for her in a way she disagreed with?  Who in that group can you see having some issue with what Ariana was saying to Schwartz?  Honest question - hard to see who would have.

Listen, I would love to have some kind of sympathy for Schwartz, but he has no leverage or history as a decent, thoughtful person who should be given any credit, and this isn't just Scandoval, he's always been a joke.  Look at his eating off Katie's plate or the whole armpit thing.  He's a dick, and tries to get away with it by playing stupid even while he's actually stupid.

The group allowed Ariana to speak for everyone.  They spoke their pieces to Schwartz.  All Ariana did was open the discussion.  Everyone else stood behind her.  Unless the producers force them, no one is going to Tahoe with Schwartz.

Except that no one in this group is afraid to speak for themselves and/or allows anyone speak for them like that if they didn’t already agree.

Both of the Toms are disgusting. They’re even more cringier on the after show, which I didn’t even think possible.

Honestly, the idea that she would have Schwartz invite all of them to LISA's event seemed beyond weird and made the whole bar scene a bit sus, IMO.

Haha in a regular season they would approach Lisa and ask to come; she would act shocked that they even wanted to, followed by reluctant to agree, but they would beg and promise to "behave" and she'd finally, grudgingly allow it (See:  Scheana's proposal from Shay, Tom and Katie's engagement party, her officiating their wedding, every birthday party/shower they invite her to, etc.) 😂

Now that no one cares about her or their castmates, Lisa has to keep the show on the road!!

I just have to say, Ariana is really good in Chicago. I was very impressed. Now, the crowd was immature and hooting like idiots to the point that security had to shut some of them up, but she was fantastic. 

[hoodooznoodooz]

I am watching the Hawaii trip. Scheana says that Ariana has changed since she started dating Sandoval. Ariana has become very negative. Sandoval always pressures Ariana to do what he wants. Scheana is not wrong.

She's just gonna film with Katy forever and ever AMEN??

Girl went thru her partner of 10 years cheating on her. Maybe in time she’ll film with him, but it’s only been a few months. I couldn’t stand being in the same room with my ex, and it took a long time to get to a civil place. It’s disappointing to see all the anger going her way for something Sandoval did.

Yes, the affair was exposed on the 1st of March, the reunion aired in May, and filming for S11 started in late June, so this was probably filmed in July 2023.

Ariana bought a house, sounds like she will be moving out soon.  (Ben from Buying Beverly Hills sold it to her)

 I believe she brought the pets with her to NYC while she's working on Broadway so I'm pretty sure they'll be coming with her to the new house. 

[Carolina Girl]

And she's in the Hollywood Hills.

Sandy's still in the Valley.  And I don't care how much they try to play it off, it's still "the Valley."  And all I can think of when I hear "the Valley" is Moonunit Zappa.

I think Ronnie and Ben remarked that Sandoval is probably not affectionate with the pets. He entered the kitchen in one scene last season. Mya did not run to him. Most dogs will hope that the human will offer a treat in the kitchen. But Mya knew better than to expect a treat from Sandoval.

Thank goodness Ariana's clever enough to say Yes, and jump on any and every opportunity that arises. She could of hidden herself away to lick her wounds, but she acted like a boss bi++h.

I'm reminded of Luann from RHONY as she is always hustling and agreeing to every role and attending events even if it's just to the opening of an envelope. LOL

I gather Ariana doesn't care if they're filmed at the same function, she just doesn't want to interact with him. I don't blame her. Now that she's moving out, she won't have to see if her friends visit with him, because she's not in the house. I also understood when she said she knows Tom will manipulate any friend of hers to get information on what's going on in her life. Nor will she have to listen to anyone relaying "a message from Tom".

[Kiki777]

I’m glad that she is getting all of these opportunities- they probably won’t keep coming but she can still build experience and a good reputation which leads to even more offers.  I’m loving how jealous it’s making the others 😜 I can even see her leaving the show to devote more time to real jobs, leave the rest to their Bravo ‘fame’ and raggedy podcasts.

I think they are walking on eggshells around her, which isn’t healthy for her or for her friends.

That said, if she did get on another show, she can walk away from Vanderpump Rules and not look back.  She won’t have to interact with any of them or them with her.  Hopefully, that contract comes with a bit better money for her too.

This all leaves Katie in a lurch and she hasn’t done much to endear herself to the rest of the group.  Constantly sour-faced and acting the sycophant to Ariana isn’t a story line.

I think Katie's comradery with Ariana comes more from a place of "misery loves company." They are both jilted ex's. Different circumstances but still, deeply hurt by the guys they spent years with.

They have every reason to feel the way they do. I'm just getting so tired of this stale, rehashed scandoval crap. 

[Kiki777]

Yeah Ariana and Katie are the only ones not drinking the Sandoval Redemption Kool-Aid and they are being penalized for it.  I am interested to see how the animal neglect issue plays out, as LVP is team Sandoval (well really team ‘anyone who is not female’) but also claims to be an animal lover.

As someone who went through what Ariana did, I sympathize way more with her than with her 'friends' who can't understanding why Ariana doesn't want to hear about Tom and how he seems sincere, or whatever. 

And I can't get over how people are expecting Ariana to move on and be less bitter after approximately FOUR MONTHS. Shit takes time.

The others are probably overwhelmingly jealous that Ariana has been given yet another opportunity to shine. I'm hoping she also gets some chorus line opportunities, which she would love.

Indeed.  She may be the ONLY one who realizes that this show is on it's last legs.  It was mentioned that contracts had not been distributed and signed as yet.  If I'm reading the ratings properly, this show is DYING in its time slot.  

Maybe Scheana can get a Las Vegas residency for a couple of month.  God, if they'll give one to that grifting, no-talent soft-core porn purveyor from BH, she's got a shot.  The rest of them will need to get jobs.  REAL ones.  Better get that sandwich shop opened, Katie.

Praise the Lawd!!  This is what she 's needed to do for a while now.

Scheana's gonna crap her pants though, because while being on DWTS was her FIRST thing, being a host on Love Island was second...

Didn't we ALL think we were gonna see SCHEANA SHAY on DWTS this year????

A new Million Dollar Listing LA season filmed a long time ago, and was supposed to air this spring, but I didn't see any promos yet. It wouldn't show this sale, first of all because it just happened, and secondly because the agent was from Mauricio Umansky's The Agency realty. It's possible it will be shown on Mauricio's Selling Beverly Hills on Netflix.

I will say this:  My brother had a long history of treating our sister rather poorly, and she finally noped out of their interactions altogether except on the most basic family gathering requirements.  They've really don't actually speak, so I'm going to give Ariana the benefit of the doubt here, even if I think many won't.

He appeared on the show many times. He was friends with Lisa Vanderpump's son at one point. He even dated Billie Lee when she was on the show the first time as a hostess.
