Not all Housewives are created equal, nor are their musical careers.
There are a few Real Housewives who were celebrated musical talents before their time in Bravo TV’s spotlight. However, the majority of Real Housewives who make music lean into their onscreen personas … and auto-tune.
Without further ado, here are all the Real Housewives who have original music available for purchase and/or streaming.
