The Bravo series itself received nods in two categories. Vanderpump Rules competed against Grey’s Anatomy, Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, Only Murders in the Building, Saturday Night Live, Ted Lasso, The Bear and The Last of Us for Show of the Year, but Grey’s ultimately took home the trophy.

Ariana Madix, for her part, won for Competition Contestant of the Year after appearing on season 32 of Dancing With the Stars.

Madix, 38, reacted to the news in January. “Can you believe?! A PCA NOMINEE?!! I am filled with gratitude for all of you — your support means everything,” she wrote via Instagram at the time. “Let’s bring it home together!”
Madix has been in the spotlight since joining Vanderpump Rules in 2013, but her fame skyrocketed after her March 2023 split from Tom Sandoval following his cheating scandal with their costar Rachel “Raquel” Leviss. As fans rallied around her, she finished in third place on Dancing With the Stars in December 2023 and made her Broadway debut in Chicago in January.
While some things never change, the cast of Vanderpump Rules is used to a shake-up … and a touch-up. Vanderpump Rules was introduced to Bravo viewers during a special episode of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills in January 2013. Season 1 starred Lisa Vanderpump, who was a Beverly Hills Housewife at the time, Stassi […]
Amid her rise in popularity, costar Tom Schwartz accused Madix of letting her success change her. “I think, for a short period of time, she might not even have been aware of it, but I think it went to her head,” he claimed during the Vanderpump Rules After Show on Tuesday, February 13. “I think she became a diva a little bit.”
Madix subsequently denied Schwartz’s assessment. “I don’t understand how working jobs translates to my ego or my personality, like, at all. Like, getting up and going to work? Don’t those people get up and go to work?” she pondered. “I don’t know what that means. Like, I don’t think I’m, like, any cooler than I was before all this.”
Madix insisted that capitalizing on new opportunities has stemmed from her strong work ethic. “I don’t think that working hard is something that typically gives people a big-ass ego. You know, I took inventory and was like, ‘I have to work my f–king ass off,’” she explained, adding that she does not “live some sort of glamorous life.”
