Stassi Schroeder built her new show, 'House of Stassi,' without a fourth wall, but the season’s most illuminating moment is the one she never saw coming.
Stassi Schroeder wants you to know that House of Stassi isn’t like other reality shows. It’s a cool reality show that makes no apologies for being a reality show with all the narrative tricks and constant contrivances that implies. Having suffered countless indignities as a 20-something queen bee over eight seasons of Vanderpump Rules — and then being fired in 2020 when her racist actions against a former co-worker came to light — Stassi now wants to show her audience not just a different version of herself but a different version of the “docufollow”-style series that made her. House of Stassi is her rage room, and she doesn’t hesitate to smash its fourth wall into pieces.
