14 Real Housewives Who Had Real Jobs Before Reality TV

Bravo’s reality series known as the Real Housewives has now been around for over a decade. It started out with just The Real Housewives of Orange County, but became so popular that it spawned more shows focused on other big cities like New York, New Jersey, Atlanta and Beverly Hills (just to name a few), and even a few spin-offs! It’s grown into a full blown franchise with a fan base that just keeps growing. Despite its success, the show is definitely characterized as a “secret guilty pleasure” because of it is full of cat fights, drinking, drama and lavish parties. The Housewives definitely fulfill that trashy reality television we all crave and even some of Hollywood’s biggest stars indulge a little! Here’s a list of 14 celebrities who have spoken about their love for the Real Housewives reality series:

14. Christina Aguilera

The “Genie in a Bottle” singer and Voice coach has professed her love for the women on The Real Housewives of New Jersey on multiple occasions and it seems her love for the Real Housewives franchise only continues to grow as she’s now also a fan of The Real Housewives of New York! She recently tweeted: “Love @Bethenny back on #RHONY. Best season ever…the show needed you back!!! Missed you! And Dorinda is a great addition!!”

13. Eddie Redmayne

It’s pretty surprising when any serious Hollywood actor admits to watching trashy television, but it seems to be even harder to believe that Eddie Redmayne is one of them! This Oscar winning actor admitted during his press tour for The Theory of Everything that he’s secretly not as perfectly cultured as the characters he plays in his movies. He told US Weekly that he would “come home from trying to pretend to know about astronomy and physics all day and turn on the Real Housewives.” I don’t think anyone would have suspected that!

11. Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi

Despite being a Jersey girl from MTV’s Jersey Shore, Nicole Polizzi has said her favorite Real Housewives show is The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills because Housewife veteran Kyle Richards reminds her of a guidette. In an interview with TV Squad she said, “I think Kyle Richards is my favorite. She reminds me of like a guidette. And her husband’s hot. And she has an attitude, so I like her a lot.” Richards and Polizzi have been seen tweeting back and forth and Richards even gave her a shout out on Twitter for her birthday! It’s not that surprising that ‘Snooki’ would be interested in watching reality television considering she’s a product of that genre, but we’re thinking this fiery Italian reality star must also like watching The Real Housewives of New Jersey!

Back in 2014, the Oscar winning actress admitted in a Vanity Fair interview that she sometimes skips out on the Hollywood big screen flicks for some small screen reality television.

Miami is really special,” said Lawrence.

He tweeted: “Krazy @KenyaMoore was bullying @Porsha4real went she got the wig snatched, she should have no regrets about that wig snatch #RHOA @Andy.” Of course, Kenya wasted no time when she responded with: “@MichaelRapaport u are pathetic & ignorant 4promoting violence on any level. Please get a job 2 keep ur cable 2 watch me every week #RHOA.” Rapaport has also been spotted hanging out with the ladies of RHONY. In an interview with the Daily Dish he said, “I’m getting closer to the inner circle and trust me, it makes me way more excited and happy than I should admit. If I was able to be the first male Housewife, I don’t know if I could actually be called that, but I would take that being bestowed upon me.”

4. Mila Kunis

Mila Kunis from That 70’s Show told Conan O’Brien that she enjoys “hate-watching” The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. She thinks the cast members are the “worst” people on television (alongside Tori Spelling), but she gets sucked into watching it while she’s walking on the treadmill at home. She also admitted that her husband Ashton Kutcher wastes no time making fun of her for it, but she doesn’t care. “These women are horrible…Cat fights happen, weaves are being chucked, the women look like they just got beat by a drag queen and they have so much make up on. It’s amazing. It is one of the greatest things on television,” Kunis said.

The two reality stars even gave him birthday gifts. In an interview with Wendy Williams, he said. “I pulled up next to Nene Leakes in a car in Atlanta where I was shooting a movie and I freaked out.

During an interview with E! News about collaborating with Bravo’s Real Housewives for a holiday campaign to promote responsible drinking, P. Diddy confessed that he was a closeted reality show junkie. “My favorite Housewife, hands down, is Nene [Leakes]. I’m an Atlanta Housewives fanatic and I do love the New Jersey Housewives, too. I like the family feud thing…I’m not even embarrassed to say it. You’ll even find me in chat rooms.” We’re thinking he’s probably tuned into The Real Housewives of New York City as well since one of his former employees, Heather Thomson, joined the show for a few seasons.
