Tracy Tutor sided with Lala Kent regarding her feud with Love Island USA host, Ariana Madix, the feud the former friends had over personal boundaries while filming reality TV. The Million Dollar Listing Los Angeles personality thinks it’s time for Broadway’s triple threat to move on from Vanderpump Rules.
Has Ariana out-grown VPR?
Bravo TV‘s high end real estate agent began, “You have a responsibility when you sign up for a show like this to show up and be accountable, vulnerable, and aware. If there are certain people that aren’t willing to do that, then perhaps it’s time for them to make a decision to walk away from the show. Or, the network to say, ‘If you can’t give anymore and you have these boundaries that are now in place, then maybe it’s time for you to move on from the show.”
“I’m not speaking to anyone directly. Obviously, as it relates to Vanderpump [Rules], I very much understand and relate to what Ariana has been through. I’ve been there myself. I totally get it. But, maybe it’s no longer the best avenue for you and maybe it’s your time to say, ‘I’m signing off.'”
Team Lala:
“Then, there’s other people like Lala, for example. She’s got a baby to raise. She’s going to have another one that just landed. Like, she’s a single mom. With all due respect, she brought it this season.”
“Don’t forget, Ariana literally was cameras down for like 10 minutes to process what she just went through on live, national television watched by millions and millions of people. They were like, ‘Oh. PS … Whatever, we’re going to start shooting in three weeks. Mind you, for all of us by the time it aired, it had been months. So, we’re like, ‘Get over it.’ Like, she did live that. Cameras were up a month after the [show’s] finale. That must have been incredibly hard for her. Of course they wanted her on the show, but perhaps – at this point – [Ariana] is ready to move on. She’s incredibly talented [and] a gifted actress. That’s her wheelhouse. She can do other things. Booked and busy!”
Author’s note:
As a person who has enjoyed Pump Rules since the moment Scheana Shay seamlessly transitioned from a scene on Real Housewives of Beverly Hills to a staff area at SUR, I couldn’t disagree with Tracy more.
The audience aren’t the only ones that have grown in the last 11 rules of VPR. The cast (hopefully) has evolved as well. As a person who is trying to grow and do better for myself, my family, and my friends, it’s hard to watch petulant adult-babies have hissy fits when something doesn’t go their way. These are grown adults in their 30’s and 40’s. We are the same age. It’s time to grow up and do better, if not for yourself, for your children.
What really grinds my gears is the stance that Lala needs this because she has a kid (and another on the way.) The entitlement parents have is infuriating to me, as a person who chose not to have children. Are my and Ariana’s lives aren’t as valued as others as we chose not to procreate? Does this mean we don’t deserve nice things, too?
Also, should Lala get rewarded for not being talented by getting gigs on reality tv? In turn, because Ariana has talent and marketable skills, she doesn’t get to do reality TV?!?!
Make it make sense …
