3 Ice Cubes

  I'm going to be real right now- I never cared for Vanderpump Rules until January 2020. Despite being a huge housewives fan, VR never caught my attention. Maybe it was Jax...I don't know but finally, after seeing some of the cast on RHOBH , I finally gave in and decided to watch the first episode. And then I watched the next. Then the next. By that time, Season 8 was just beginning and I had become addicted.
