Ariana Madix performs at Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade after being eliminated from Vanderpump Rules

Ariana Madix made a stunning appearance during the 2024 Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade just days after she was eliminated from Vanderpump Rules.

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

She wore an all-white outfit with large diamond earrings and sheer white gloves. Her hair was slicked back, half up, half down.

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

The Broadway star’s bombshell appearance came after Bravo announced they were 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.

โ€œI canโ€™t thank those who shared their lives enough. How I love you all,โ€ she said. “Here’s to the next generation of ‘Vanderpump Rules.'”

However, Madix, who joined the show in season two, didn’t seem too heartbroken about the announcement. She gushed about her time on the hit Bravo series on Instagram.

“Vanderpump rules, you will forever be that girl ๐Ÿ’–,” she captioned her post. โ€œI was up until 4 a.m. searching for the right pictures and the right words, but there is no post or caption that could ever sum it all up.โ€

“I’m pleased to close this chapter and excited for what’s to come,” she continued. “I don’t know if these were the best days of our lives, but they were definitely special ๐Ÿ’–.”

โ€œVPRโ€ aired in January 2013 with the original cast of Tom Sandoval, Kristen Doute, Stassi Schroeder, Scheana Shay, Jax Taylor and Katie Maloney.

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

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

It’s unclear where the reality stars will go next, but Page Six exclusively reported that Kent is in “early talks” about joining Bravo’s The Valley.

“VPR” gained widespread attention in seasons 10 and 11 when it was revealed that Sandoval, who was Madix’s boyfriend for ten years, was having an affair with Leviss. The fallout from the scandal, dubbed โ€œScandoval,โ€ has been playing out on the show ever since.
