Ariana Madix Performs at Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade After Being Canceled From ‘Vanderpump Rules’

Ariana Madix put on a show-stopping performance at the 2024 Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade — just days after she was dropped from ‘Vanderpump Rules.’

The reality star was spotted singing and dancing to a rendition of The Cardigan’s 1996 song “Lovefool” in front of the iconic Macy’s Herald Square location in New York City on Thursday.

She wore an all-white outfit, accessorized with large diamond earrings and sheer white gloves. Her hair was pulled back into a half up, half down look.

Earlier this week, Madix was seen in a video posted to TikTok rehearsing for her performance, wearing a furry black and brown coat and knee-high white boots.

The Broadway star’s stellar performance comes after Bravo announced they would be axing the entire cast of “VPR” for season 12 and replacing them with a “new group of tight-knit SUR verse.”

The show’s frontwoman Lisa Vanderpump celebrated the sales and the “last 12 years of filming” with the original cast in a statement announcing the news.

“I can’t thank those who shared their lives enough. How I love you all,” she said. “Cheers to the next generation of ‘Vanderpump Rules.’”

However, Madix, who joined the show in Season 2, didn’t seem as heartbroken about the announcement. She took to Instagram to enjoy her time on the hit Bravo series.

“Vanderpump rules, you will always be that girl 💖,” she captioned her post. “I was up until four in the morning looking for the right pictures and the right words, but there is no message or caption that could ever sum it all up.”

“I am at peace with closing this chapter and excited for all that is to come,” she continued. “I don’t know if those were the best days of our lives, but it was definitely something special 💖.”

“VPR” aired in January 2013 with Tom Sandoval, Kristen Doute, Stassi Schroeder, Scheana Shay, Jax Taylor and Katie Maloney as the original cast.

Over the years, the series has added several new cast members, including James Kennedy and Lala Kent. Tom Schwartz and Raquel Leviss.

Schwartz hinted at the cast overhaul earlier this month during an exclusive interview with Page Six, saying that “all good things must come to an end.”

It’s unclear where the reality stars will go next, but Page Six exclusively reported that Kent was in “early discussions” to join Bravo’s “The Valley.”

“VPR” gained traction during seasons 10 and 11 when it was revealed that Sandoval, who had been Madix’s friend for 10 years, had an affair with Leviss. The aftermath of the scandal, dubbed ‘Scandoval’, has played out on the show ever since.
