Bette Midler Shoots Her Shot to Join ‘The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills’

Bette Midler

Bette Midler had what some fans felt was a fantastic casting idea for The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.

The Hocus Pocus star is shooting her shot at joining Bravo’s hit reality TV series—and her idea didn’t go unnoticed.

The award-winning actress made the seemingly humorous suggestion on Saturday, March 30, and responded when a few notable X accounts weighed in on the idea. While several celebrities have in the past made cameos on Real Housewives shows, Midler, 78, seemed to have a more significant role in mind.

“Is it too late for me to become a Real Housewife of Beverly Hills?” Midler tweeted. “I’ve never watched it, but I am in the mood to talk some sh*t. And to get paid for it? A dream!”

Following her pitch, Bravo tweeted a response from its official X account. “Talk about a glorious crossover,” the tweet said. It included a winking face emoji paired with a diamond emoji.

Andy Cohen, who serves as the Real Housewives franchise’s executive producer, also shared his thoughts on Midler joining the cast. “It’s time!” he wrote on X in a tweet that, like Bravo’s, included a diamond emoji.

Midler then took her idea one step further as she seemingly realized that any quality reality TV star needs a catchy tagline.

“I think my tagline should be, ‘Those Beaches don’t know what’s about to hit ‘em!!’” she tweeted. Bravo responded on X with a few emojis indicating applause.

RHOBH first launched in 2010, about four years after the Real Housewives franchise kicked off with its first show a bit further south in Orange County, Calif. With RHOBH’s 13th season over, fans of the show are already looking forward to its return in Season 14, though little is currently known about which cast members will return.

Filming for the popular Bravo show hadn’t started as of mid-March, indicating that the earliest the show could return would be late 2024 or early 2025.
