Who Are Kristina Kelly and Ariana Madix From Vanderpump Rules?
After a couple of seasons of success as a Real Housewife, Beverly Hills’ Lisa Vanderpump was given a spin-off show based on the lives of her staff at SUR Restaurant and their relationships with one another. The show, which was titled Vanderpump Rules, was an instant hit and within months of its finale episode, Bravo announced that the gang would be coming back to Bravo for a second season.
Now that the premiere is less than one month away, Lisa and the gang have began promoting the new season and last night, the restaurateur spoke with Too Fab about what is to come on season 2.
“Vanderpump Rules is pretty fast and furious, I have to say that,” Lisa explained. “I feel like when I even see the footage, I’m thinking, ‘Oh no,’ but it is funny television and these kids really just don’t have any filter at all. I don’t know if it is the new generation coming along, but it’s fun to watch.”
As for the new additions to the cast including Kristina Kelly and Ariana Madix, Lisa claims that they were brought aboard because of a referral given by another one of her employees which isn’t surprising considering Kristina’s closeness to Stassi Schroeder and Ariana’s friendship with Scheana Marie.
“You know what? It’s really funny because it seems like nearly everybody that’s worked for me over the years, especially on the show, has worked for me for 4, 5, 6 years,” Lisa said of her staff. “So, normally at SUR the kind of [hiring] process is that it was a friend of a friend. I don’t know why. It’s like a family, so that’s probably why they are all so familiar with each other.”
Below are photos of the two new girls as well as a few details on who they are:
Ariana Madix is a model/actress who has been seen in several films as well as TV series including Dead End, Single Siblings, and Dads. Ariana also has a movie coming out next year titled Dirty Dealing 3D in which she stars alongside Michael Madsen and C. Thomas Howell.

Kristina Kelly would seem, according to her social media pages, to be a model as well as a photographer, but since there isn’t a whole lot of information available regarding Kristina, fans will have to wait to find out for sure when the second season of Vanderpump Rules premieres next month.
