Uh, is Vanderpump Rules actually a spot-on representation of the millennial experience
Chrissy Teigen said she’ll never let it go off the air, Rihanna called one scene “easily the best clip on television” and Selena Gomez remade a classic moment for the ’gram.
On the surface, the show looks to be about nothing more than a group of wannabe actors and models who have gone a little heavy on the Botox. But beneath the cutting confessionals and tequila-fuelled insults is a group of people that embody the true angst of adulting. Creating maj, made-for-television drama is contingent on each cast member having a role in the service industry . While there’s little bartending or waitressing actually happening IRL, the SUR-vers are virtually trapped in their shitty server jobs, working odd hours and being reprimanded when they forget to include chipotle mayo with a patron’s calamari.
Every kind of ’ship, be it romantic or platonic, is mercurial as fuck Most of the Vanderpump cast has hooked up with one another—sound like your college friend circle?—and the entire cast is heavily invested in the romantic entanglements that make it to “steady” status. And, as evidenced by the near-constant presence of a cheating plot, monogamy is staunchly expected and defended .
Matching the romantic intensity are the vitriolic friendships, particularly between the women. They feverishly try to maintain and protect their “friendships” by burrowing into each others’ lives, making every problem a communal crisis.
