Ariana Madix Says Talking to Lisa Vanderpump About Her Frustrations Was a "Completely Pointless Endeavor"

The Vanderpump Rules SURver says she realizes she will always be one of Lisa Vanderpump's "minions."

By Hannah Fusaro

On the Season 7 finale of Vanderpump Rules, Ariana Madix approached boss Lisa Vanderpump and admitted that she was disappointed by Lisa's remarks insinuating that Tom Sandoval and Tom Schwartz were being negligent by going on vacation to Mexico soon after opening Tom Tom. Lisa assured Ariana it was a joke and implored her to lighten up. But while the two seemed to end the conversation on good terms, Ariana opened up more about the interaction on the Vanderpump Rules After Show.

How to Watch

Watch Vanderpump Rules on Bravo Tuesdays at 8/7c and next day on Peacock. Catch up on the Bravo app.  

"Literally as the words were coming out of my mouth, I realized that it was a completely pointless endeavor," Ariana said. "She'll never take what I'm saying seriously; I'll always be her minion. What is the point? All I'm going to do is make her mad. She'll get vindictive; she'll try to get back at me for having this opinion and these concerns, so, you know what, screw it. I'll just go back to my f--king corner and stay out of it and live my life."

So what's the worst that could happen if Ariana decided to revisit the topic with Lisa? Well, she, Stassi Schroeder, and Kristen Doute agree: "Nobody wants to be treated the way Lisa treats me," Kristen said.

"She can do no wrong in anyone's eyes and so it's really hard to have a difference of opinion with her," Ariana added.

Sandoval also weighed in on Lisa and Ken Todd's style of management and how it differs from his own, and you're not going to want to miss what he has to say in the video above. And make sure to tune in to the Vanderpump Rules reunion Part 1 on Monday at 9/8c. Preview, below.
