Lisa Rinna didn’t shy away from naming her former “Celebrity Apprentice” co-stars Dionne Warwick and Star Jones as the rudest celebrities she’s ever worked with.
In fact, the “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” alum, 62, labeled Warwick as a “nasty piece of work” in her new memoir, “You Better Believe I’m Gonna Talk About It.”
“The first time I met her on a create-your-own pizza task, she barely looked at me but had the audacity to bark, ‘Go get me a Pepsi!’” Rinna recalled in the book.
“And for some reason, I ran off like a simp to get Dionne Warwick a Pepsi. She thanked me by conspiring with her coven to get me canned,” Rinna continued, referencing her early departure from Season 4 of the reality series.
Rinna was “fired” from the show after she claimed Jones “threw her under the f–king bus” in Episode 2.
Looking back on the moment in her book, Rinna reflected that she “couldn’t trust any of the women” on “The Celebrity Apprentice.”
She also thanked Jones for “being such a twat, because her viciousness prepared me for my future as a Beverly Hills Housewife.”
“I’m not sure I’d ever experienced woman-on-woman hate crimes before that,” she added.
Reps for Warwick and Jones did not immediately respond to Page Six’s request for comment.
Last Thursday, the Bravolebrity dished about her time as a star on “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills,” exclusively telling Page Six Radio that she felt her time on the series cast “a black cloud” over her family.
“I think there was a bit of a black cloud over me for a while. And I think that can affect the entire family dynamic,” said Rinna, who is mom to daughters Amelia and Delilah Belle Hamlin — both of whom she shares with her husband, Harry Hamlin.
“Once I got myself out of that situation, the cloud lifted for all of us. I really believe that,” she continued, adding that she doesn’t “have to be a ‘Housewife’ anymore.”
Rinna joined the Bravo show for Season 5 in 2014 and announced her departure from the show after Season 12 in 2023.
While her time came to a close years ago, absence hasn’t made Rinna’s heart grow fonder for some of her former “RHOBH” co-stars.
She called out Garcelle Beauvais for being “fake from head to toe” and a “huge disappointment,” and labeled her former friends Sutton Stracke and Denise Richards as “narcissists.”
She also put Bravo exec Andy Cohen on blast for publishing their private text messages about her “RHOBH” exit in his own memoir.
But the name-dropping doesn’t end there. Rinna additionally reflected on her soap opera career, labeling her former “Days of Our Lives” co-star Robert Kelker-Kelly as the “biggest bully in Hollywood.”
Elsewhere in her memoir, she admitted to having been snubbed on several occasions by Anna Wintour. However, she went on to claim that the former Vogue editor finally said “hi” to her at a recent Balenciaga fashion show.
