Riley Burruss on Casual Chaos: Here are some highlights
Gia’s had almost the whole cast on at this point and I really respected how honest Riley was. She didn’t dodge anything. It’s insane that people would sent her hate texts over a show, I feel awful for her but anyways here’s a recap…
• Gia asked if she’d change anything about the season and Riley just went “I would do everything differently.” Not a single attempt to defend it lol
• She said she watched it back and looked like a spoiled brat.
• Okay the actual big reveal: her phone number got leaked after her episode aired and people were texting her racist stuff. She had to shut her phone off for a whole week
• So that’s why she never hit up Ariana after. Everyone thought she was being shady but she was literally just offline
• She was really clear about where the line is. Drag her for the show, call her spoiled, whatever, she gets it. The racism is what she’s not taking
• Been filming since she was SEVEN years old on RHOA. Says the plus side is she already heard every mean thing anyone could say before she hit adulthood so comments barely register now
• Best line of the whole thing: “I have to be okay with making other people uncomfortable so that I can have good mental health.” She said out loud that she knows that sounds bad and then said it anyway
• Started therapy really young because of the TV stuff. Said it took her forever to get to a place where she could put herself first
• She’s STILL applying to law school. Her LSAT tutor watched her hop on Zoom five minutes late and was basically like girl how are you doing law school and filming at the same time
• Her actual dream though is her own marketing firm. Says people already come to her for business advice
• On not following in Kandi’s footsteps: she said the singing is not it 😭 loves her mom, just isn’t trying to be her
• She DJs and straight up used the episode to say she’s open for bookings.
• Christian’s (her BF is also a Christian lol) private but she talked about him a bit. Said what easy looks like is waking up happy and not stressing. Sweet
