Actress Abby Elliott just dropped a reality TV bombshell — and it involves Vanderpump Rules. In a recent interview, the Saturday Night Live alum and The Bear star revealed that one of her most intense feud scenes in the FX hit was inspired by a surprising source: a certain drama-stirring VPR cast member.
“When I was prepping for that moment, I found myself thinking about one of the women from Vanderpump Rules,” Elliott shared. “She had this ability to smile sweetly while throwing verbal punches. That energy was exactly what I needed for the scene.”
Though Elliott didn’t name names, fans immediately began speculating online. Could it be Stassi Schroeder, known for her icy clapbacks? Or perhaps Lala Kent, whose sharp-tongued confrontations have become legendary?
Elliott, who plays Natalie “Sugar” Berzatto in The Bear, said she drew from the layered reality TV persona to channel a mix of tension, sarcasm, and restraint. “Sometimes the best inspiration comes from unexpected places,” she added.
The revelation has thrilled fans of both shows, sparking hilarious crossover memes and praise for Elliott’s nod to the Bravo universe. One fan tweeted, “The Bear x Vanderpump crossover we never knew we needed,” while another wrote, “Please let Abby Elliott play a messy cousin on Vanderpump Rules next.”
As The Bear continues to rake in acclaim, it’s clear that even the grittiest dramas can learn a thing or two from the queens of reality TV shade.
