The folks at Bravo have taken their popular Real Housewives franchise and sent it on the road. The Real Housewives Live Tour launched on Saturday at Caesars Hotel and Casino in Atlantic City. The show consisted of Watch What Happens Live producer John Jude interviewing Cynthia Bailey of The Real Housewives of Atlanta, Caroline Manzo of The Real Housewives of New Jersey, LuAnn de Lesseps of The Real Housewives of New York City, and Vicki Gunvalson of The Real Housewives of Orange County. Cynthia was a last-minute replacement for The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Kyle Richards.
Audience members who were pre-selected before the show were able to ask the Housewives questions. Caroline and LuAnn received the most attention from the audience, but no shocking secrets emerged during the event. The show lasted an hour and forty five minus with a fifteen minute intermission. Spotted in the audience were Lauren Manzo, Caroline’s daughter, as well as Cynthia’s husband Peter Thomas.
Tickets for the show ranged from $37.50 to a deluxe VIP package for $170 that included preferred seating and a meet-and-greet cocktail reception with the Housewives.
The next stop in the tour is October 8 in Chicago, featuring Sonja Morgan from The Real Housewives of New York City, Gretchen Rossi from The Real Housewives of Orange County,Lisa Vanderpump from The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills and Phaedra Parks from The Real Housewives of Atlanta.
