If you thought Rihanna was just busy being a billionaire, slaying red carpets, and running Fenty everything—think again. Apparently, in between world domination, she’s glued to Real Housewives like the rest of us. And she’s got opinions, hunny.
The 36-year-old icon has been stanning The Real Housewives for years, to the point where she once joked that she’s ready to channel Teresa Giudice’s “flip-a-table, do-what-you-gotta-do” approach to parenting. Yep, Baby RZA better watch out—Mama might serve time for throwing blocks across the playroom.
In a recent interview, Rih gave us the lowdown on which franchise she’s living for right now. Spoiler: It’s not what you expected.
Salt Lake City? Really, Rih?
When asked which city has her heart, Rihanna didn’t hesitate: “Always Salt Lake City.”
Girl, what?? Salt Lake City is not exactly where we thought our fave pop diva would vibe, but here we are. “They had such a swinging opening season, it knocked me off my feet,” she gushed.
Apparently, the Utah ladies brought the drama hard from day one—no warm-ups, no introductions, just straight chaos. “Usually you need time to figure out who the villains are,” Rihanna explained, “but these women? They said, ‘Surprise! We’re all a hot mess.’ And I respect that energy.”
We get it, Rih. Sometimes you want your reality TV like your eyeliner—sharp, messy, and slightly unpredictable.
New York’s Revamp? Rih Approves.
Rihanna also shared her love for the revamped Real Housewives of New York City. She admitted that people don’t give the new crew enough credit, saying, “People really don’t appreciate their flight.” (Is she lowkey throwing shade at the Hamptons drama? Probably.)
Leave it to Rihanna to find wisdom in petty brunch fights and passive-aggressive lunch dates.
And Her Favorite Housewife? The Plot Twist We Deserve.
Now, for the moment of truth: Who is Rihanna’s ultimate fave? Out of all the iconic Housewives—NeNe, Teresa, Lisa Vanderpump—who reigns supreme in Rih’s world?
“Jenna Lyons,” she revealed. Jenna Lyons?! Yes, the 56-year-old ex-J.Crew mastermind turned RHONY star. “I don’t want to be generalized,” Rihanna said with a smirk, “but I love her.”
Because of course Rihanna’s favorite Housewife would be the chicest, coolest, most unconventional one. No shade to anyone else, but Jenna Lyons is like the artisanal cheese plate of Housewives—an acquired taste but worth every bite.
Rihanna loves her Housewives with a side of chaos, a pinch of glam, and a whole lot of unpredictability. BRB, we’re off to binge SLC and see if we can feel the same Rih-magic.
