Michelle Buteau let her hair down on Sunday night’s (March 30) episode of Watch What Happens Live. Between sips of champagne, the actress gave her unfiltered thoughts on The Real Housewives of Atlanta, Garcelle Beauvais‘ exit from The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, and rapper Lil’ Kim.
Buteau appeared on the Andy Cohen-led talk show with Real Housewives of Atlanta newbie Kelli Ferrell, who joined the show in Season 16. Since Ferrell is known for her short height of only 5 feet, Cohen had the ladies play a game of “Are They! Shorter! Than Kelly?”
When Cohen asked the duo to guess if Lil’ Kim is shorter than Ferrell, Buteau hit back with some shade.
“I mean, with the new butt or the old butt?” she asked, before adding, “Shorter.”
After a moment of awkward silence, Buteau realized what she had said and quickly walked back her remark.
“Oh no, I’m gonna get so much — OK, I love Lil’ Kim, everybody,” Buteau told the audience, while Ferrell added, “I’m not coming for the Queen … I actually met Kim and she’s shorter than me.”
Before Cohen could move on to the next person, Buteau asked, “Can we edit? I just want to know if we can edit my Lil’ Kim comment.”
Elsewhere in the episode, Buteau praised her Survival of the Thickest co-star Garcelle Beauvais for her decision to quit The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.
“Good for her. She’s so talented,” Buteau said. “I call her the Beyoncé of Haiti. She can do so many things and I’m just like, OK, let’s move on, you know? I’m gonna miss her, though. Because she has a lot of value.”
Watch What Happens Live airs Sunday through Thursdays at 10 p.m. ET on Bravo. New episodes are available to stream the next day on Peacock.
