All the best pop songs are about failed romances. There is no better muse for music than heartbreak. In the same vein, relationship drama makes for great reality television. Bravo relationships, like pop anthems, are all about drama.
In honor of this natural pairing, we’ve compiled a list of pop songs that perfectly sum up some of Bravo’s most notorious relationships.
Please, please, please – Sabrina Carpenter – Ciara Miller and West Wilson
Lyric excerpt: Heartbreak is one thing, My egos another, I beg you don’t embarrass me, motherf*cker
Ciara Miller found love (or at least a summer fling) with West Wilson in Season 8 of Summer House. The newcomer had no trouble adjusting to the group and was easily embraced by his housemates and viewers. He was so popular that viewers were delighted when fan-favorite Ciara became interested in him. We were excited to see her with someone new after witnessing her trainwreck romance with Southern Charm’s Austen Kroll.
She approached the romance with caution and took things very slow. After all, she was burned by a Bravo star in the past. Fans had high hopes that the relationship would continue but unfortunately, West couldn’t play the long game. At the reunion, Ciara tearfully explained how she felt played by her co-star, who continuously downplayed the seriousness of their relationship even after they slept together. Not cool, dude.
I think Sabrina Carpenter’s single “Please, Please, Please” perfectly sums up West and Ciara’s romance. She wanted him to prove that he wasn’t like the others but in the end, he couldn’t live up to the hype.
The Grudge – Olivia Rodrigo – Ariana Madix and Rachel Leviss
Lyric excerpt: And I doubt you ever think about the damage that you did, But I hold onto every detail like my life depends on it, My undying love, now, I hold it like a grudge
Olivia Rodrigo’s 2023 song “The Grudge” is about feeling betrayed by someone you felt close to. The song immediately made me think of Scandoval. The lyrics question how a person could be capable of such a betrayal, which I’m sure Ariana Madix can relate to.
Many fans have speculated that the tear-jerker is about Taylor Swift and the infamous copyright battle over Olivia’s song Deja-Vu. The song does feel like it is more about a friendship betrayal than a romantic one. The lyrics made me think about Ariana and Rachel Leviss’ friendship, especially because of one lyric that says, “Do you think I deserved it all? Your flowers filled with vitriol?” In the Vanderpump Rules Season 10 episode Secrets Revealed, Rachel brought Ariana flowers the day after she slept with her boyfriend. It almost fits too perfectly.
Bye – Ariana Grande – Brittany Cartwright and Jax Taylor
Lyric excerpt: Didn’t think you’d lose me, Now it’s just too late to choose me
Ariana Grande’s 2024 hit “Bye” is about choosing yourself over your marriage. I, of course, thought of Brittany Cartwright. The Valley star filed for divorce from her husband, Jax Taylor, in August 2024 after six months of separation. I think all Bravo fans were happy to see Brittany break away from that relationship. She deserves so much better. As Ariana Grande said, “Boy bye!”
Sharpest tool – Sabrina Carpenter – Tom Schwartz and Jo Wenberg
Lyric excerpt: We were goin’ right, then you took a left, Left me with a lot of shit to second-guess, Guess I’ll waste another year on wonderin’ if, If that was casual, then I’m an idiot
Sabrina Carpenter’s song “Sharpest Tool” is about a situationship in which the line between relationship and casual is seriously blurred. I couldn’t help but think of Tom Schwartz and Jo Wenberg. In Season 11 of Vanderpump Rules, Tom Schwartz confused the hell out of the Hairstylist. One minute, he was making “jokes” about them getting married and the next, he would act like she was delusional for thinking they had a future together. I couldn’t help but feel bad for Jo. He was sending her so many mixed signals.
I knew you were trouble – Taylor Swift – Britani Bateman and Jared Osmond
Lyric excerpt: I guess you didn’t care, and I guess I liked that, And when I fell hard, you took a step back
I’m living for Britani Bateman’s relationship drama with Jared Osmond on Season 5 of Real Housewives of Salt Lake City. Jared is waving red flags and Britani is simply pretending not to see them. We’ve all been there. Their toxic dynamic reminds me of Taylor Swift’s 2012 hit, “I Knew You Were Trouble.” He’s bad news yet she can’t help but be with him.
