Lisa Vanderpump hits back at Jax Taylor’s claim ‘Vanderpump Rules’ is scripted
Lisa Vanderpump shut down Jax Taylor’s claim that only the early seasons of “Vanderpump Rules” were “organic” and “real” while the recent installments are “fake” and “scripted.”
“I think it’s absolutely ridiculous to say ‘scripted.’ Nobody can write a script like ‘Vanderpump Rules,'” the “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” alum told “Entertainment Tonight” in an interview published Thursday.
Vanderpump, 63, quipped that perhaps what Taylor, 44, said and did during his eight seasons on the Bravo reality show was “scripted,” but that does not apply to the rest of the cast.
“Maybe he sits at home in his little bedroom and writes his own scripts. Well, what do I know?” she said. “Anyway, for the most part, anything Jax says doesn’t make any sense to me.”
Taylor made headlines earlier this month when Page Six obtained a video of him slamming the series that put him on the map.
“Show me a scripted show, and I’ll show you f—king ‘Vanderpump Rules.’ Scripted! Scripted! I’ve been on this show for nine f—king years … this is scripted,” he said while holding a microphone at his new bar, Jax’s in Studio City, Calif.
Taylor went on to claim that the current “Pump Rules” cast members do not “even hang out with each other” when they are not filming, calling the show “disastrous” and “fake.”
“Don’t get me wrong: When we started, it was awesome. Seasons 1 through 6 [were] organic; it was real,” he said.
Notably, Taylor dubbed his new “Vanderpump Rules” spinoff, “The Valley,” a “real show.”
The bartender later backtracked on his comments and admitted he was “embarrassed” by his public outburst going viral.
“I have a big mouth, and it gets me in trouble from time to time. I regretfully went on a rant about how ‘Vanderpump Rules’ is scripted. I’m incredibly embarrassed by that,” he said in the April 11 episode of his “When Reality Hits” podcast, which he co-hosts with his estranged wife, Brittany Cartwright.
Taylor then took back what he said and called “Vanderpump Rules” the “most authentic” reality TV show.
He and Cartwright, 35, announced in 2020 that they were leaving the series. “The Valley,” which also stars fellow “Pump Rules” alum Kristen Doute, premiered in March.
