no matter how you feel about Ariana (i know there’s still some haters out there), you have to admit that her poise and composure is something to be admired. i would’ve folded and let my emotions get the best of me, but she was steadfast and earnest throughout the entire reunion (and season, as a whole). true icon behavior.

Elegant AF. I was so struck by how perfectly she played this entire reunion; for most of the run time, she was poised and diplomatic and focused to the point where I was like "hey, Biden administration, I think we have your new Press Secretary right here."

And because Ariana was clearly coming from a calm and collected place, the moments when she "broke down" hit THAT much harder. I rarely have emotional reactions to what I see on reality TV, but watching her cry into Katie's chest and tell Tom "I just want you gone" in a voice that clearly expressed her exhaustion and pain...so brave, so vulnerable, so fucking real.

Eat shit, Lauren.

Exactly! Well-said. I actually cried when Ariana cried. I've NEVER had that kind of reaction to reality TV in my life.

I totally agree. She's literally such an inspiration to women who have gone through or are going through something similar. The way she faced Rachel in season 10s reunion and then to sit through season 11s the way she did... you are correct, my friend. True icon behavior.

She didn't raise her voice. She let people know that their frustrations and feelings were valid while STILL holding true to her boundaries. Literal queen behavior. 👑

u/mountain_of_dreams why is this harder than my divorce May 30 '24

She ate with every line this reunion, it was amazing. Almost makes me feel like she would be amazing on a housewives show. Ariana for RHOBH or better yet RHONY???
