So Relatable
An extremely unscientific investigation.
It can be hard to discern fact from fiction in todays media landscape.
Are they merely claiming Bravo viewer status to seem likable and relatable to the masses?
Until Andy Cohen installs a lie detector in theWatch What Happens Liveclubhouse, we may never know for sure.
But wecanspeculate wildly, based on nothing but hunches and vibes.
Jon Hamm
Lets begin with Jon Hamm.
Plus, hisJames Kennedy impressionwas impeccable.
Ruling: Jon Hamm is telling the truth: He sometimes watches Bravo with his wife.
I’m into a lot of reality shows, she said.
I love theReal Housewives especially the Beverly Hills one and I loveTop ChefandIntervention.
(The preferred nomenclature is merely Beverly Hills.)
Well need more information to decide whether Deschanel was being dishonest.
Luckily, she brought up Bravo againon the podcastBitch Seshin March 2023.
I recently got intoVanderpump Rulesbecause of Scandoval; it is quickly becoming my life, shereportedly said.
It’s all I care about.
Unfortunately, the fullBitch Seshepisode is not available to listen to online.
Neither is particularly specific.
The season shes referring to is Season 10.
Aside from the hastily filmed final episode, was that season great?
In my opinion, it was not.
And I dont think a true Bravo viewer would say otherwise.
If its any consolation, though, she will nod along enthusiastically whenever Bravo is being discussed.
“It’s life.
It’s right now.
It’s happening right now, she said.
And what do I do?
I go in and watch [Real]Housewives of Beverly Hills.
The confession spawned countlessbreathlessheadlines it seemed Meryl Streep was truly just like us.
Jennifer Lawrence, herDont Look Upco-star and a very vocalHousewivesfan, was also a part of that Zoom interview.
In response to Streeps admission, Lawrencegasped and clutched her chest.
If you ask me, if Streep actually watchedHousewives, Lawrence would have already known.
They would have spoken about it at length.
Plus, like… its Meryl Streep.
Ruling: Meryl Streep does not watch Bravo.
Florence Pugh
Heres an odd one.
Florence Pugh and Lisa Rinna met at a fashion show in 2023.
Returning the favor, Harry Styles sent Lisa Rinnaa birthday message on Instagram.
Ruling: I mean, I guess he must watch?
Again, why would he DM Rinna?
What hold does Rinna have over celebrities, particularly those who starred inDont Worry Darling?
Oh man, you know, I wanna sayPotomac, she said, about which she preferred.
(She added that its OK if white women fight.)
A ruling here is difficult, but not impossible.
Ruling: Michelle Obama does not actively keep up with anyHousewivesfranchises.
But weve all seen therecent Coachella photofeaturing Swift and New Jersey housewife Teresa Giudice.
If true, this would prove that she at least knows whatReal Housewivesis and thats not nothing.
If Taylor Swift hasnt watched aReal Housewivesfranchise, she should; she would like all the subterfuge.
