The Art of Whooping It Up

When it comes to letting loose, Vicki Gunvalson has perfected the art of having a good time. In fact, very few people truly understand the nuances of whooping it up quite like the OG of The Real Housewives of Orange County. We've watched Vicki party it up over the course of 11 seasons on RHOC, and it's pretty clear that she hasn't attended a bash without shouting, "Woo hoo!" at least once.

"Whooping it up in Mexico has always been one of my favorite things to do because I have a condo there and I've been going there for 30 years, so all the bars there pretty much make you feel happy."

5. You Can Whoop It Up Anywhere

"I've been known to whoop it up not only in Mexico, but pretty much everywhere I go," Vicki explains. "So, I think, Mexico's good but there's other places too."

6. Never Forget the Woo Hoo

Vicki's Woo Hoo!

The catchphrase is key and this is how you do it: "You've got to put your right arm above your head and and go like that [shakes it around]."
