Real Housewives and RuPaul’s Drag Race fans have a reason to celebrate!
Michelle Visage is officially making an appearance on Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alongside her longtime friend, new Housewife Leah Remini.
Leah confirmed the exciting news during an appearance on Entertainment Tonight, revealing that Michelle filmed with her during her freshman season on the Bravo reality series.
The casting crossover is sure to excite fans of both franchises, given Michelle’s longtime connection to the Drag Race universe and her close friendship with Leah, who starred on the sitcom King of Queens for almost a decade.
Leah, whose BFF is Jennifer Lopez, has added the RHOBH cast members to her irl friend group. She’s grown closest to Kathy Hilton, but said acclimating to the group with the other women wasn’t “as easy” as she thought it would be.
Leah noted she made friends “individually,” but not as a group.
ICYMI, Kathy Hilton recently spilled that Leah and her fellow newbie, Tracy Tutor, “ruffled” the feathers of the tenured RHOBH cast members. “First, with the new girls. I have to tell you, I admire them,” Kathy told Us Weekly. “They came in strong.”
“They’re not intimidated by these girls that have been there for years.” Kathy “loves” the new additions and believes the rest of the cast feels similarly. Kathy suggested Leah and Tracy’s confidence may have caught some of the veterans off guard. “I think they’re a little shocked.”
“Let’s just put it this way. Every single person’s feathers are ruffled [and] tied,” she added.
