If you thought reality TV couldn't get any messier...think again. E! is completely changing the game and putting all your controversial faves from reality TV history under one roof. In House of Villains, these iconic stars will have to "outsmart, out-manipulate, and out-scheme each other" in a bunch of trials, according to E!.
Competing for a $200,000 cash prize (and the title of "America's Ultimate Supervillain"), the contestants will participate in a different challenge each week. The winner will be safe from elimination, but one other villain will be voted out and sent home at the end of each episode. The last villain standing wins the money.
As you can probably imagine, this show is gonna be packed full of messy drama, and I personally can't wait. If you *will* be tuning in, I've got the answers to all your House of Villains questions ahead.
Who's in the cast of House of Villains?
House of Villains has the best villains from across the reality television universe, so let's get into it:
Tanisha Thomas
Tanisha Thomas starred on season 2 of The Bad Girls Club and eventually her own show Tanisha Gets Married in 2012. She also had a podcast with Ben Aaron called Crazy Talk. She is most famous for putting out my favorite song, "I Didn't Get No Sleep Cuz of Y'all, Y'all Not Gon Get No Sleep Cuz of Me."
Tiffany "New York" Pollard
Tiffany Pollard aka New York aka Head Bitch in Charge (her words, not mine!) was in Flavor of Love in 2006, going on to star in her own spin-offs I Love New York (2007), New York Goes to Hollywood (2008), New York Goes to Work (2009), and Brunch with Tiffany (2020). If she still doesn't ring a bell, you *definitely* know her from the infamous "Beyoncé? Beyoncé? Beyoncé?!" meme.
Jax Taylor
Jax Taylor starred on Vanderpump Rules for eight seasons, and let's just say he wasn't necessarily a fan favorite after he cheated on his girlfriend and co-star Stassi Schroeder with her best friend Kristen Doute, and then cheated on his now-wife Brittany Cartwright with fellow Vanderpump alum Faith Stowers in 2017. 😬
Johnny Bananas
Johnny Bananas won MTV's The Challenge *seven times,* making him a record holder. He's earned a total of $1,184,720 from his show winnings. Probably his biggest villain move was in The Challenge: Rivals III when he kept the $275,000 prize from his winning partner Sarah Rice.
Corinne Olympios
Corinne Olympios was on season 21 of The Bachelor and season 4 of Bachelor in Paradise. She was the *iconic* 24-year-old who revealed she had a nanny who did everything for her.
Anfisa Arkhipchenko
Anfisa Arkhipchenko starred on 90 Day Fiancé in 2016 and was basically disliked and called a gold digger for wanting to be with a rich man (but i say get your bag 💅).
Bobby Lytes
Bobby Lytes made reality TV history as the first openly gay main cast member on Love & Hip-Hop: Miami for three seasons. He's known for his straight-forward, unapologetic personality.
Omarosa
Omarosa gets around the reality-verse! She was in the very first season of The Apprentice in 2004 (as well as a spinoff down the road), Fear Factor in 2005, and Celebrity Big Brother 1 in 2018. She also worked as a political aide to former President Donald Trump.
Shake Chatterjee
Shake Chatterjee starred on Love Is Blind season 2. Shake quickly became one of the biggest romance reality TV villains for the 💩 way he treated his fiancé Deepti Vempati.
Jonny Fairplay
Jonny Fairplay was on Survivor: Pearl Islands in 2003 and Survivor: Micronesia in 2008. Wondering what makes him a villain? He lied about his grandmother's death to help him win a challenge, and later said he doesn't regret it.
If you need more convincing about why this cast is 🔥🔥🔥, TikTok user @coccacocca has some great examples.
