Hmmm…something’s going on, and we’re not talking about these custom Chuck 70s with Lala Kent’s face painted on them. Bravo revealed on November 26 that the upcoming 12th season of Vanderpump Rules will feature an entirely new cast of characters, still composed of SUR and TomTom staff. Lisa Vanderpump, as the show is titled, will stay. We don’t yet know what the cast will look like differently. “I have such mixed feelings right now,” Lala posted in response to the news on Instagram. “It’s no secret that I don’t like change. This is the exception. I want to thank you for being with us for so many years. This show changed my whole life.” What stands out here is that she is so… calm. That’s not the Lala we know. Taken in conjunction with Jax and Kristen’s new reality TV series on Hulu, The Valley Getting a second season feels like something else is brewing. Like…another spin-off show? Two spin-off shows? Bravo couldn’t let go of a star like Ariana Madix.
