A new brunette bombshell has entered the villa.
Ariana Madix unveiled her fresh new hairstyle, featuring rich, dark chocolate tresses, during the broadcast of Love Island USA on June 12th.
On the night an episode of the reality dating show aired on Peacock, its host, Ariana, shared a surprising hairstyle change – a departure from her usual blonde locks – in a sizzling Instagram video. The video, set to Beyoncé’s “Partition,” featured Ariana walking seductively in a red latex mini-dress adorned with buckled straps. She teamed it with matching platform heels and a billowy robe casually draped on her elbows. To complete the bold look, she accessorized with a hand-shaped leather purse and a ball gag hanging around her neck.
Her post was titled, “A Moment on the Dark Side,” and the former star of “Vanderpump Rules” acknowledged celebrity stylist Carl Bembridge for her bold makeover, mentioning that it was indeed a wig.
Ariana is set to host the second season of Love Island USA, following her gradual departure from Vanderpump Rules after nine seasons, where she openly acknowledged that it wasn’t her most comfortable fit.
She expressed to People magazine during an interview in March that she was never truly suited for reality TV. She believes she may not have possessed the qualities typically associated with successful reality stars. Interestingly, perhaps her lack of those traits made her a good reality star, but often, she found herself overthinking things.
Ariana also discovered that perhaps that environment isn’t ideal for her, and it doesn’t offer the space for self-expression. Consequently, when one fails to express oneself genuinely, they may find themselves in circumstances where they say or do things that they don’t truly support or identify with.
The woman, who is 39 years old and has been in a relationship with Daniel Wai for the past two years after splitting up with Tom Sandoval, has also experienced tranquility since departing from the world of Vanderpump Rules.
Ariana continued, “I’ve discovered that perhaps that environment isn’t ideal for me as it doesn’t provide space for me to truly express myself. When one fails to be authentic, they may end up in predicaments where they say or do things that they don’t genuinely support or endorse.
After being with Daniel Wai for two years, a 39-year-old woman has settled down and experienced tranquility, following her separation from Tom Sandoval. Additionally, she has come to terms with leaving the world of Vanderpump Rules behind.
She shared, “At nearly forty, I’ve finally found who I truly am. I’m surrounded by wonderful friends and family, which makes life even more fulfilling. It’s an incredible feeling to be where I am now, doing what I love and earning a living from it. After being in this industry for so long, reaching this point has taken time and patience. I consider myself extremely fortunate.
