Hulu knows how to throw an epic house party.
Taste of Reality scored an invite to the hottest house party thanks to our friends at Hulu and their effort in making the streamer the reality TV Mecca.
The ultimate crossover event gathered over 150 unscripted TV icons and creatives, including Khloé Kardashian, Travis Barker, Lisa Vanderpump, Heidi Klum, Maura Higgins, and more.
Here’s a taste of the event!

Vibe Check
The Casa Lago mansion was the perfect backdrop for the second annual Get Real House party.
Once entering the gates and taking a 2 mile journey up the winding hills, guests were greeted by a gorgeous staff à la Vanderpump Villa.
The hospitality one could expect from an LVP affair was front and center — from the passed hors d’oeuvres to the themed cocktails (hello Stassi Spritz & Mirrorball Margaritas)!
In addition to the open bar, 7brew coffee popped up, Guillermo’s Salsa and Casamigos Tequila had a stand, and even Wendy’s was in the house!
Photo ops were available throughout the mansion grounds, with a vintage photo booth.
Hulu Gets Activated (literally)
Each corner of the house was a portal into one of your favorite reality shows.
Guests had the opportunity to fully immerse themselves and possibly hang with the stars who bring these worlds to life.
Glambot
THE iconic glambot operated by filmmaker Cole Walliser was a major slay for reality stars and guests alike. We captured Sasha Farber doing his very first Glambot, though he looks like a seasoned pro.

DWTS —
Speaking of Hulu’s iconic dance competition show, the party’s Dancing with the Stars dance studio was built from real set pieces. It came equipped with a videographer to make guests feel as if they’re in the ballroom!
Dancers were sent a thirteen-second video of their performance (here’s the least embarrassing second of mine!), earning the simulation 10s across the board.
Love thy Nader —
Brooks, Grace Ann, Sarah Jane, and Mary Holland‘s room was staffed by three southern gentlemen who served homemade gumbo from the loving kitchen of Holland Greene Nader, their mom! BTW, the gumbo was rich, hearty, and delicious, and YES we are available for the next family crawfish boil!
The Kardashians —
No one understands branding like the Kardashian/Jenner family.
Of course, the family’s signature aesthetic was on full display, as were each of the family’s products that were gifted to Hulu‘s party guests.
Secret Lives of Mormon Wives —
The SLOMW room brought together the saints and sinners.
There were selfie opportunities, a cellphone charm bar, as well as a fruity pebble stash … for in case of emergency of course.
Fur Real —
Hulu thought of everything.
Fur the dog-and-puppy lovers, there was an activation from Ollie where we could take a break from people and snuggle with Molly the pug and all of her adorable friends.
There was a personalized puppy art station to keep the memories alive!
Love Overboard —
Hulu brought the whimsy, and we are here for it!
There was a nautical-inspired bounce house that house guests got to jump in.
Here’s one of our favorite creators, tismejackieg, enjoying the installation.
