How Jackie Goldschneider’s RHONJ Gamble on Teresa Giudice Has Backfired

Jackie Goldschneider is currently playing with house money on RHONJ when it comes to her friendship with Teresa Giudice. But the dealer, aka the fans, can see this won’t end with a pot of gold at the end of the night. Jackie seemed like a strong, intelligent woman when she came on the series. But now, that intelligence is being questioned. The once proud Jackie is now looking like a pawn to Tre. And we all know this isn’t going to end well. 

Teresa’s friendship is fleeting

I thought Jackie was smart. I mean, the woman is a lawyer and a writer; you just can’t be that blind to the truth. RHONJ Season 14 shows fans that Jackie truly believed she was starting to form a lifelong friendship with the OG. But Tre had other ideas. She sets her sights on a costar who has a plethora of information and tries to shake it out of them. While at the Zentuary with Jennifer Aydin and Dolores Catania, Tre let her cards show. The ladies are at war, and the series is no longer about an actual friend group but rather clear sides.

Teresa, who clearly thinks of herself as a general, is strategically planning the methodical takedown of Margaret Josephs. During the Zen conversation, Dolo noted that Jackie isn’t as nice as she pretends to be. In this moment, Teresa reveals what her true motives are for her new blooming friendship.

“Who cares about Jackie?” Tre asked Dolores. “I just need her to take down Margaret.” She further opened up in confessional, pointing to her and Jackie’s volatile past. “Karma’s a bitch,” Teresa laughed. Checkmate, Jackie.

Jackie Goldschneider’s RHONJ intentions aren’t clear, but they feel murky

♬ Opinions About Jackie from RHONJ – Bravo

Most people back Margaret after she sent Jackie’s text message abuse about Dolores to Dolores herself. The move was savage, but it is clear that The Marge had grown tired of Jackie; someone she’d stuck by through thick and thin in the past.

I am not sure Jackie actually thought about the repercussions of befriending Tre. She surely didn’t predict Marge’s actions, despite warnings she had an arsenal in prior seasons. For me, the main issue with Jackie’s “friendship” with Teresa is that she was a fan before joining the show. Thankfully, photos last a lifetime, and we’ve all seen Jackie at Tre’s book signing.

The other bit that gets me is Jackie’s mean words for Teresa for the last few seasons. There was the time Jackie made an analogy about Gia Giudice doing drugs that didn’t land well with the mother bear. On a Watch What Happens Live episode, Andy Cohen asked Jackie, “What do you admire the most about Teresa as a businesswoman?” After an extremely long pause, she answered, “She knows how to license her name on things.” 

Andy launched another probe, asking, “Out of her four New York Times bestselling books, which is your favorite to read?” The question was a clear reference to the photo of Jackie at an early book signing. But the lawyer quipped, “I would say the last one that the ghostwriter wrote. I mean, that Teresa wrote.” So imagine fans surprise when Jackie tried to turn around this season of RHONJ, and pretend she had always had some sort of bond with Tre. The math ain’t mathing. 

The RHONJ cast has plenty of opinions on Jackie and Teresa’s newfound friendship

Fans are not the only ones confused by Jackie’s move. The rest of the Real Housewives of New Jersey cast also think the move is coo-coo.

Danielle Cabral verbalized what everyone was thinking best, saying, “After all this when Teresa is like ‘yeah Jack,’ she’s going to be left on the floor like ‘Teresa, we’re best friends.’” Dolores had more of a visceral reaction about Jackie while talking to Jen and Tre, noting, “She thought she was better than me. And she still thinks she is better than the two of you. But she needs you right now.” Most costars agree that Jackie has only made friends with Tre in order to curry favor with viewers, and sell more copies of her book.

Jackie potentially pretending to be friends with someone she despised isn’t coming across well. Viewers want authenticity, but it’s lacking. To most, what Jackie is trying to do is very obvious. And while Jackie insists she has moved on from Teresa spreading rumors about her marriage, the notion still feels laughable.

At this point, I think Jackie has drunk the Kool-Aid and truly believes that if she makes friends with Tre, she will be safe from the eventual recasting. Sadly, the gamble has backfired for her. Fans are now just waiting for the moment Jackie wises up.

The Real Housewives of New Jersey is available to stream on Peacock.

Watch What Happens Live’s 15th Anniversary Special: Every Bravo Star Appearing

Photo Credit: Charles Sykes/Bravo via Getty Images

It’s hard to believe that Andy Cohen has been gracing us with his late-night show, Watch What Happens, for the last 15 years. Andy has had some mega stars on the show, like Jennifer Lawrence and Patti LaBelle. Naturally, almost every Bravoleb has also crossed the clubhouse threshold. The show is where fans go to tune in to the latest drama. Andy has a knack for getting some of the hard-hitting questions answered, and we love him for that. Let’s take a look at who will help him ring in his big anniversary below!

Andy’s late-night pop

View this post on Instagram

A post shared by Bravo (@bravotv)

Andy has always had the 411 and has been the king of midnight fun for some time. Reigning supreme, Andy has built up quite the Rolodex of guests and friends. In a Bravo release, fans learned that the network would be rolling out the red carpet for some of its special guests. In a released statement, Andy gushed, “Fifteen is my new lucky number! I can’t wait to celebrate the WWHL legacy. Thank you to Bravo for always having faith in our little late-night show that could—allowing me to ‘go there,’ play ridiculous games, host incredible guests, and generate endless watercooler talk.”

For Andy, Watch What Happens Live has been a “dream job,” noting he “never wants to wake up.” Over the years, WWHL has won a Webby and been nominated for a Primetime Emmy, the GLAAD Media Awards, the MTV Movie Award, and the Critics Choice Award. The series has found a cult following who tune in every night, ensuring not to miss any drama. 

The who’s who

Drum roll, please. The lineup for Watch What Happens Legacy is set to include Bravoleb stars Teresa Giudice, Milania Giudice, Sonja Morgan, Luann de Lesseps, Phaedra Parks, Porsha Williams, Jeff Lewis, and Dwight Eubanks, as well as VIPs Jerry O’Connell, Evelyn Cohen, and Lou Cohen, Andy’s parents. 

Bravo noted, “The anniversary special will feature hilarious hijinks, unpredictable surprises, and a jam-packed lineup of celebrity and Bravolebrity guests. What could we possibly come up with next? You’ll have to watch what happens.” Needless to say, there will most likely be a few pop-up guests to keep the night entertaining. I would bet that a housewife from the original franchise, the Real Housewives of Orange County, might also make an appearance. As Vicki Gunvalson likes to point out, it was the show that started it all. 

Andy has loyal followers

The guest list is perfect, and personally, I am thrilled to see Frick and Frack back together. Most of these Bravolebrities have become an integral part of Andy’s life. And he calls them friends. Andy and Jerry have been long-time pals with the Bravo executive, even giving Jerry a hosting gig on Bravo’s Play-by-Play. Andy has also grown close to Tre, whom he has favored for a long time. Even though he was absent from her recent wedding due to an already-planned Montana trip, the two remain close. 

Luann and Sonja have famous connections, and they don’t mind doing whatever Andy asks of them. Whenever either has set foot in the Clubhouse, they have delivered great ratings and memorable moments. It is easy to see why Andy would want them as part of his big day. As for Jeff, the two have a genuine friendship. Frankly, they are one iconic duo.

Jeff has never had an issue calling out Andy for shady moves, and the host seems okay with that. The two have had a rollercoaster of a relationship and even argued on live shows. The TV special will undoubtedly touch on all his relationships with his guests and leave fans wanting more, I suspect. 

When does Watch What Happens Legacy air?

Earlier this year, the network confirmed that Watch What Happens Live had been renewed through 2025. The series airs Sunday through Thursday on Bravo, with episodes available on Peacock the next day to stream. For those wondering, the TV special will air primetime on Sunday, June 30th, at 9/8c.

The Latest Shocking Allegations Against Luis Ruelas Explained

Photo Credit: Rich Polk/Bravo via Getty Image

It is safe to say that Luis Ruelas is not one of the most popular stars on the Real Housewives of New Jersey, and these latest allegations against him won’t do anything to help that. The businessman came in as a knight on a white horse, swooping Teresa Giudice up in a love bubble. But shortly after his grand entrance, some claimed to notice red flags.

During his first season on RHONJ, a video started to circulate showing Luis crying on the beach. Since then, many of the cast and fans have kept one eye on Luis. So when news broke recently about a new set of allegations, viewers wanted to know what was going on.

What are the latest allegations against Luis Ruelas?

It’s her party, and she will call out Luis if she wants to! A party planner recently took to social media to call out the Bravo star and his latest business venture, Vinivia, for supposedly failing to pay more than $300,000 last year after she planned the company’s launch party.

The woman of the hour, Loriann Serna, posted an Instagram Story directed right at Luis. The Wife of the Party founder wrote, “Luis Ruelas, how do we get paid?!” The photo posted featured Luis, Teresa, and their blended family attending the event. 

In another post, the Wife of the Party account shared responses from followers. One fan wrote, “Everyone remember that big launch for Louie with Vinivia? Well, Louie hasn’t paid the women who put it together. She is being silenced, too, but just wait. Team Teresa will label her crazy and obsessed, too; it’s how they operate.” 

Wife of the Party isn’t backing down

Loriann continued with an onslaught of posts. She even added a Q&A segment, writing, “How will you pay us the $300,000 plus you’ve owed us along with all the other vendors that are waiting? It’s been 60 days and a lot of excuses.”

The party planner took her to IG Live to further her case, arguing that they had a contract in place. Loriann claimed that she was being silenced. “I’m being told to stand down and shut up. Have grace while owed what some people pay for a home. I’m sick of shutting up,” she said.

Loriann continued: “I’m sick of the lies. I’m an honest businesswoman, so it’s my responsibility to be transparent after I’ve given so much grace to @vinivia.live just to be continuously lied to.” 

She went on to also call out Stefan Graf and Marcello Genovese, Luis’ business partners, for alleged fraud. Loriann noted, “And this isn’t a dispute, to be clear, about vendors or a miscommunication or a line item because that’s a completely different thing than someone having a contract and promising to pay for services rendered and asking if they can delay the payment until Monday because a wire didn’t come in.”

The party planner added, “I want to be very clear that as this project went on, everything was requested and approved, and I have everything to show that. This wasn’t a surprise number. Marcello Genovese fully agreed and just kept giving me excuses.”

The video solidified that she was still not being paid for her work. One of the last posts showed Vinivia’s own post, tagging her as the hired party planner, writing, “When Vinivia says they can’t pay you because their investors aren’t paying them.”

What has Luis said?

A post shared by VINIVIA (@vinivia.live)

In April, Luis spoke about his new venture and hinted that his entire family supported it. Luis spoke with TMZ. “This is a live-streaming platform that’s being launched on April 4, 2024, solely for creators and influencers around the world. That’s what I do for a living.”

Luis later promoted the app on social media. In a video he said, “Augmented reality and artificial intelligence is one of our specialties here at Vinivia. Bringing your followers and your audiences down a beautiful consumer journey with product placements behind you, and they may not seem placed in other environments. Do it live. Vinivia now. Let’s go!”

As for these new allegations neither Luis nor Teresa have spoken out about the matter.

Has 90 Day Fiancé’s Big Ed Moved on From Liz Woods?

Photo Credit: TLC via YouTube

Ed Brown is one of the most infamous figures from the 90 Day Fiancé franchise. Ed started his journey on 90 Day Fiancé: Before The 90 Days, where he flew to the Philippines to meet Rosemarie Vega. The former couple’s relationship quickly fell apart, mainly because of Ed’s actions. Ed insulted Rose and told her that she had hairy legs and that her breath smelled bad.

Later on, during 90 Day: The Single Life Season 1, Ed met Liz Woods. Ed had a crush on Liz, and the two eventually started a rocky relationship. The pair broke up and got back together numerous times, which made their relationship exhausting to watch. After appearing on 90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After? In Season 7, Ed and Liz began planning to marry.

The duo made their next appearance on 90 Day: The Last Resort, where they attended couples therapy. Despite making progress on The Last Resort, their relationship plummeted when they returned for Happily Ever After? Season 8. After abruptly canceling their wedding, it appears that Ed has already moved on from Liz. Did the infamous Ed Brown really move on so quickly? Or is his new relationship just for clout?

Ed blindsided Liz during Happily Ever After? Season 8

Ed and Liz were happy at the start of Happily Ever After? Season 8, and their break-up came almost out of nowhere. After moving to Arkansas together, Liz felt that her relationship with Ed was finally on track. Liz’s daughter Ryleigh was staying with them for the summer, which was supposed to conclude with their wedding.

However, after a huge fight over taco pasta, everything came to an abrupt end. Liz called out Ed for telling Ryleigh to “stop being a baby”, which he didn’t take well to. Shortly afterward, Ed called their officiant and canceled the wedding. To make matters worse, Liz didn’t find out about things until the officiant called her to apologize.

Ed and Liz’s Season 8 storyline wrapped up when Liz and her mom went to move out her things. As usual, Ed acted immature and even claimed that Liz’s mother had “abandoned her”. This caused one last fight between Ed and Liz, which caused the latter to leave in tears.

Ed recently hard-launched a new relationship

A post shared by Edward Allen Brown (@thisisbiged)

Ed surprised fans when he posted a video with a mystery woman on his Instagram page earlier this month. The video consisted of several photos as well as short video clips of Ed hanging out with the woman in New York City. While the woman doesn’t look as young as Liz, she still appears to be significantly younger than Ed. This isn’t a surprise, given the fact that he tends to gravitate towards younger women.

Although Ed hasn’t officially stated that he’s dating this new woman, it seems pretty obvious that they are a couple. Ed is hugging the woman in several of the photos, which implies a romantic relationship between the two. Furthermore, Ed has made a couple of posts that all include videos of this new mystery woman.

Liz also has a new boyfriend

A post shared by Elizabeth Marie (@e_92_marie)

Shortly after Ed posted pictures with his alleged new lady, Liz also took to Instagram to show off her new boo. Several pictures of Liz and her new boyfriend had been leaked previously, but this was the first time she posted him. Liz’s new man is evidently much closer in age to her, and seems to be making her very happy. A series of photos also showed him smiling alongside Ryleigh, as well as Liz’s mother and grandparents.

Ironically, Ed and Liz both launched their new relationships within days of one another. Perhaps this could be due to their Season 8 story wrapping up, which confirmed that there was no further future for them as a couple.

Despite their relationship coming to an end, it will be interesting to see what Ed and Liz have to say at the Season 8 Tell All. There’s clearly no chance that things rekindled between them, but they may reveal more about what led to their split. After all, there must be more to the story than the silly taco pasta!

Survivor 50: New Era Players That Should Return

Photo Credit: CBS via Getty Images

Survivor Season 46 recently wrapped up, which symbolized the sixth season of the show’s New Era. It was recently confirmed that Survivor Season 50 will consist of only returning players. Season 50 will most likely have a mix of players from both the New Era and the original run, which is only fitting. The following five players from the New Era would be a great addition to Season 50, so please consider CBS!

Venus Vafa – Season 46

Venus Vafa got the short end of the stick during Season 46, and as a result deserves a second chance on Survivor 50. From the jump, Venus played a strong strategic game and did well during challenges. However, her social game struggled. After the merge, no one wanted to work with Venus although it wasn’t clear why. She genuinely tried to make alliances, but was ultimately blindsided and voted off during the final seven.

Sometimes Survivor cast members get hate from their competitors despite not really doing anything to them. Unfortunately, this was the case for Venus who was outed by many of her fellow castaways for no evidence reason. Venus brought total girl boss energy to Survivor 46, and we really hope to see her return for Season 50!

Q Burdette – Season 46

Quintavius “Q” Burdette is another player from Season 46 who is a perfect choice for Season 50. Q played an interesting game to say the least. At the start of the season he helped to carry his Yanu tribe, and later made it to the merge. This is where things started to get messy for Q, who even asked everyone to vote him out at tribal council one night. Ultimately, Q finished in sixth place, and left with an immunity idol in his pocket.

Despite being a bit of a wildcard at times, Q was extremely entertaining all season long. At one point, Q suggested a game of hide and seek for the sole purpose of finding out everyone’s strengths and weaknesses. It would be a ton of fun to watch Q on another season, as he is one of the most hilarious players in recent Survivor history.

Julie Alley – Season 45

Photo Credit: Robert Voets/CBS via Getty Images

Julie Alley played a great game during Survivor 45, and we would love to see her return for Season 50. Ironically, Julie is 50 herself, and was the oldest contestant on her season. Julie’s age didn’t stop her from dominating the game, where she did well in challenges and formed strong alliances.

Julie also pulled off some impressive blindsides on Survivor 45, and her game was well rounded. If Julie comes back for Survivor 50, she would certainly be a big threat. Please bring her back CBS producers!

Carson Garrett – Season 44

Carson Garrett played a clever game on Survivor 44, where he ended up placing fourth. Unfortunately for Carson, his fire making skills were ultimately what took him down. Carson played an excellent social game, and made allies with almost all of his fellow castaways. His strategy was near perfection from start to finish, and there’s a good chance he would’ve won if he made it to the final three.

If Carson returned for Season 50, he could have the opportunity to redeem himself after Season 44. Hopefully Carson’s fire making has gotten stronger, as it was really the only flaw he showcased all season. Carson’s social game is a big threat, and he could have a lot of influence on Survivor 50 if he is cast.

Ricard Foye – Season 41

Photo Credit: Robert Voets/CBS via Getty Images

Ricard Foye was a highlight during Survivor 41, where he finished in fifth place. While he didn’t make the final four, Ricard still got pretty fair and played a great game. Ricard was a pro at individual immunity challenges, and won immunity more times than any of his fellow castaways. In addition to being a physical threat, Ricard was fairly decent with strategy and pulled off some impressive blindsides.

After finishing in fifth, Ricard deserves another chance at winning Survivor. Ricard would be a great choice for Season 50, as he is well rounded and has a decent shot at going far in the game.

Survivor 50 should include New Era, but not rely on it

Photo Credit: Michael Tullberg/Getty Images

Some would say that Survivor 50 should ignore the New Era, but that would feel unfair. There have definitely been players who should get another shot. While there is a lot to fix in regards to the New Era, there’s plenty that has also worked. That’s why we’ve highlighted these five players.

What Survivor 50 also needs to do, however, is lean on its incredible roster of players from the 40 seasons before the New Era hit. We may have seen many of them return multiple times in the past, but there’s a reason for that. They make great television. And as viewers, that’s exactly what we need. Both heroes and villains. As well as all of those in the fuzzy area in-between.

Survivor is available to stream on Paramount+.

Tom Sandoval’s Best Friend Kyle Chan: Everything You Need To Know

Photo Credit: Barry King/WireImage via Getty Images

Tom Sandoval’s close friend Kyle Chan made headlines earlier this month for speaking out in defense of Sandoval’s girlfriend, Victoria Lee Robinson. The Jeweler appeared in an interview alongside Victoria on YouTuber Adam Newell’s platform, where they responded to Billie Lee’s recent podcast episode detailing her friendship breakup with Sandoval. 

Kyle has become more integrated into the Vanderpump Rules gang’s drama in the last few years. He made frequent appearances in Season 11 of VPR, mainly in the company of Sandoval. The season finale centered around a cast trip to support his jewelry business in San Francisco.
Now that Kyle has become a more central character in VPR, fans may be wondering, “Who is this guy?” Don’t worry, we have you covered. 

Here is everything you need to know about Kyle Chan:

He got his start in a hospital

According to his website, Kyle’s interest in jewelry began in a Los Angeles hospital in 2010. At the time, his boyfriend was receiving cancer treatment. He began making Wish bracelets while at the hospital, sometimes spending upwards of 8 hours a day on his jewelry.

He spoke to Page Six about his business origin story in a January 2019 interview.

“My boyfriend was actually diagnosed with leukemia, so he was literally in the hospital for about nine months,” he told the outlet. “[He] went for six months of chemotherapy. So during that time, I was managing [my old] company [and] trying to build my own company … when I was in the hospital for that nine months, I just kept making bracelets.”

From there he began selling jewelry out of local boutiques in the LA area.

He’s worked with the stars

The cast of VPR aren’t Kyle’s only celebrity clients. The Hong Kong native has worked with several A-list stars, including Miley Cyrus, Beyoncé, and Taylor Swift. He also provided pieces for the Oscar-winning film LaLa Land. His green moss aquamarine necklace was featured in the film.

When he’s not making pieces for his celebrity clientele, he’s helping out his friends. According to Bravo.com, Kyle designed Katie Maloney and Scheana Shay’s (second) wedding rings. He also helped with Jax Taylor’s ring for Brittany Cartwright. A couple of those marriages may not have worked out but the rings were stunning.

His love for jewelry started young

In his interview with Page Six, Kyle opened up about how his love for jewelry began. He told the outlet he’s had an interest in the craft since high school.

“When I was 14, during high school, I needed to take an art class and I didn’t want it to be a boring [class] like painting or carpentry,” he shared. “So I saw jewelry making, jewelry class. So I took the jewelry class and I literally thought that I’m just putting some beads together, but it wasn’t. It was like a full-on metalsmith … surprisingly I’m still into it.”

He knew about the affair

Kyle’s name was thrust into the spotlight when it was rumored that he knew about Sandoval’s affair with Rachel Leviss months before it became public knowledge. Rachel confirmed that Kyle had knowledge of her and Sandoval’s secret rendezvous on an episode of her podcast Rachel Goes Rogue. Fans criticized him for being silent since he is also close friends with Ariana Madix.

Kyle explained his reasoning for hiding Sandoval’s secret during his interview with Adam Newell.

“What he did to Ariana, I think everybody knows is not defendable. I was not ok with it,” he said. “I was pretty honest with Ariana after [she] found out. I did apologize to her and I told her I [would have] really liked to tell her but I really [didn’t] think it was my place.”

Kyle added he isn’t the type to “out” his friend but he did suggest Sandoval come clean in the private conversations.

He’s feuding with Billie Lee

Kyle made it clear he is “Team Victoria” in his interview with Adam. He dismissed Billie’s claims, accusing her of being untruthful in her recent podcast episodes about Sandoval. Billie didn’t appreciate his comments and responded by throwing a few digs of her own on her podcast.

“I don’t think positive of him,” she told listeners. “I’ve always thought he was fake.”

Yikes. Shots fired!

TELL US – DO YOU THINK ABOUT KYLE KEEPING SANDOVAL’S SECRET? SHOULD HE HAVE TOLD ARIANA ABOUT THE AFFAIR?

Report: Kelly Bensimon’s Ex Scott Litner Trying To Save Relationship After Canceled Wedding

Photo Credit: Sara Jaye/Getty Images for ABA

Real Housewives of New York alum Kelly Bensimon was preparing to say ‘I do’ once again. So, fans were shocked when she called off her wedding to Scott Litner. After all, Kelly pulled the plug just days before the couple was set to wed. It seemed like the mom of two was finally getting her happily ever after. And after all this, her former fiancé is allegedly hoping to win her back.

Why did Kelly pull the plug on her wedding to Scott?

Photo Credit: Clifton Prescod/PEACOCK

Kelly revealed why she nixed her plans to marry Scott. “I understand that there is speculation and gossip, and I want to put an end to all of it. To be clear, he refused to sign a prenuptial agreement, and I refused to marry him,” Kelly stated. “Full stop.”

But is Scott ready to give up on his relationship with Kelly? Nope! He allegedly wants her back. An insider told Daily Mail, “Scott still wants to marry Kelly and though it will not happen in a few days as originally expected, he believes they can get back to a place where it does happen. Though Kelly mentioned the reason being the lack of a prenup, Scott feels that is just an excuse and that it had to be something else,” the source added. I mean, I think her reason was pretty clear. And somewhere her former RHONY co-star Bethenny Frankel is probably cheering Kelly’s decision.

Reportedly, “Scott didn’t want a prenup because he considers himself more traditional, and having a prenup makes it feel to him that you are already putting a damper on a lifelong relationship. He didn’t want to make the marriage a business deal,” the insider continued. “He is looking to figure out where it went wrong and is looking to right any of this.”

The source noted that family and friends of the couple were “surprised” by the sudden turn of events.

Real Housewives of New York and Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip: RHONY Legacy are both streaming on Peacock.

EXCLUSIVE: DWTS Pro Emma Slater on Historic Routines, Favorite Celebs and More

Photo Credit: JC Olivera/Variety via Getty Images

Having been on Dancing with the Stars since Season 17, Emma Slater is nothing short of a seasoned pro. Just seven seasons after her debut, Emma won her first Mirrorball. And seven years on, Emma’s still dancing just fine, despite the sometimes-frequent foot pain. But that’s why she teamed up with OOFOS. Emma spoke with us about all things DWTS – partners, dances, stars, and hours spent in narrow high heels.

Emma confirms she’s still in touch with Mauricio

When asked about her previous partners, Emma revealed, “I keep in touch with almost all of them! The ones that I still stay in good contact with are James Van Der Beek, Rashad Jennings, and Mauricio Umansky. And Bill Engvall always holds a special place in my heart!” Bill was Emma’s first partner in the show’s history.

Fans will recall that Emma placed fourth with Bill, fifth with James, and won with Rashad. Speaking of Rashad, Emma revealed that her all-time favorite performance on the show was her contemporary alongside the athlete. “It still gives me the chills,” she said, “because he dedicated that dance to his late father and so every ounce of it felt special and delicate. It really meant a lot to him. I remember dancing it with Rashad and it felt like we didn’t breathe the whole time!”

As for her favorite star on the show who wasn’t her partner, Emma enthusiastically replied, “Alfonso Ribiero! No brainer. Him and his wife are family to me, he’s like my brother.” Indeed, everyone loves Alfonso.

Emma reveals her thoughts on VPR and Ariana Madix

As most reality TV fans are aware, a good chunk of Vanderpump Rules Season 11 drama revolved around DWTS. What did Emma think of it all? Well, she admitted, “I must confess I do not watch the show! But I love Ariana [Madix], she was a firecracker on the show! Her week one tango was insane!”

“I think it’s important to welcome the natural dance ability of all types of celebrities on the show,” Emma later said regarding those stars who come in with natural talent. “It’s a very welcoming and encouraging dance environment we have, and the variety makes the show so entertaining. Some celebs just naturally have more prior dance experience than others. I personally think the competition is fun!”

Regarding other potential stars, Emma also laid out the traits that her dream star would have. “Well, honestly I’m so ready to be creative and to bring the heat. So anyone who is ready to create magical dances, athletic, hopefully can move well, has rhythm, and has no fear! And a good performer!”

“I spend a lot of time in dance shoes, with narrow toe space and 3.5-inch heels! After being in these every day for hours, my feet feel the impact. After I started wearing OOFOS immediately after my rehearsals, I noticed that my feet would recover far quicker, I would get less cramping in my foot arches, and the foot pain from holding my weight in heels all day would disperse. OOFOS are so soft yet supportive in all the areas I need, it is bliss for my feet!”

Emma’s new shoes also affect her life out in public, with folks approaching her saying, “‘I love OOFOS, I wear mine all the time’ or ‘Where did you get those, I’ve been looking for something just like that!’ and I light up when I hear that honestly! I feel Iike OOFOS is such a community, it’s fun to get excited about them with people who love them too. I think it’s because they are so cute to wear everyday so not only set trends but look and feel like clouds for your feet. Who doesn’t want that?”

She continued, “I have two styles that are my particular favorites, so I would recommend both of them. They are OOmega OOlala sandals in black and the OOmega OOahh slide sandals in Nomad. The OOfoam technology helps absorb impact for all-day recovery – I’m wearing the OOmega OOlala Sandals right now!” To get shoes as stylish and comfortable as Emma’s, be sure to check out OOFOS.
