Let’s talk about it — I don’t know why some Housewives act like being a friend of the show is some kind of punishment. Baby, it’s not jail time, it’s screen time! And let’s be real… some of these ladies should be thanking Bravo for still calling their phones.
Every season, there’s at least one Housewife crying in a confessional about being “demoted.” Meanwhile, I’m over here thinking — girl, you just went from a full-time headache to part-time stress with a check attached. That sounds like a promotion to me!
🎥 The Truth About Being a Friend
Let’s break it down. A “friend of the show” still gets to film, go on trips, and show off their glam. You’re just not forced to carry the storyline or fake a fight at every dinner table. You get to pop in, drop your shade, and exit like a legend.
You might not have a tagline, but you’ve got peace of mind — and that’s priceless. Plus, the real fans know that some of the most iconic moments in Housewives history came from the friends, not the full-timers. (Marlo Hampton and Shamea Morton, we see you!)
💰 The Smart Move
Friends get paid per episode, they don’t have to show their whole life, and they can still land endorsements or spin-offs if the audience loves them. That’s the ultimate side hustle! Why stress about carrying the season when you can just sprinkle a little drama and collect your bag?
If Bravo called me today and said, “We want you as a friend,” I’d be like, “Where do I sign, and do I bring my own champagne or y’all got that covered?”
🗣️ Final Word
Ego ruins opportunities. Some Housewives can’t handle being “supporting cast” because they need the spotlight 24/7. But being a friend of the show is the sweet spot — you get the fame, the followers, and the fun without the full-time chaos.
So next time you see a Housewife pouting about her “friend” status, just know this: I’d happily be that friend. Let me film a few confessionals, sip my drink, stir a little pot, and peace out before the reunion wigs start flying.
Because one thing’s for sure — I’m not allergic to a Bravo check. 💅🏾✨
