Stassi Schroeder came out of hiding to try to repair her reputation on Tamron Hall today. It was a live interview. That was a risky choice. It’s also an interesting choice for her agent choose a talk show with a black host to interview Stassi over her racist comments. The first package lists pretty much all the horrible things she ever said on her pod cast or social media including the horrible comments about victims of the #metoo movement, black people in general, calling her outfit “nazi chic” and the final straw…when she and Kristen called the police on Faith Stowers and identified her as a crime suspect. It’s a rough introductory package.
Stassi Is Unhappy People Might Think She Is Racist
Did Tamron just say Stassi is five months pregnant? I guess that is about right but she looks like she is going to pop. Stassi says the reason she is talking now is because she needed time to “process her feeliings.” Tamron then says perhaps the weirdest thing ever. Stassi told her staff that she doesn’t want to be portrayed as a victim. Why would Stassi think anyone would see her as the victim in this situation? Stassi says she is someone “who messed up quite a few times.” Oh I see it now, she is trying to take responsibility for her actions while at the same time bringing up that “others” see her as the victim of “cancel culture.”
Tamron says the feedback on her shows social media refer to her as a racist. Stassi says that has been the hardest part for her. Tamron replies, “It should be.” Apparently, Stassi has been going out to restaurants during a pandemic worried that people were thinking she is a racist. Stassi says she was not racist, she just wasn’t anti-racist. Um, this is not going well. Tamron starts to go in on the whole situation with Faith Stowers. She asks Stassi why she thought the person in the tabloid story was Faith. Or did she really even think it was her.
Stassi Is Not A Good Liar
Stassi says she did believe it was Faith and it was more than just the photo. She claims lots of people texted her about the photo. Tamron wants to know who those people were. Stassi claims that they were “friends of Kristen” and that part doesn’t really matter. Tamron schools Stassi on why it matters and how calling the police could have ruined Faith’s life.
I really expected Stassi to come out and say something like, “I am not a racist. But, I have in my past done some terrible things that were racist. After some refection, I recognize that now and am embarrassed and remorseful and have learned my lesson.” That is not what she is doing. She’s now saying that being on Vanderpump Rules there is a need to have conflict with others on the show. So when something like this comes to her attention, she sees it as storyline. I’m paraphrasing. She’s actually coming off even worse than that.
Stassi Schroeder Says She Believed Faith Stowers Was The Criminal
Stassi says “Don’t get me wrong, this is completely my fault, BUT, it wasn’t just a photo that they saw.”It was texts from people who the actual suspect had stolen from identifying Faith as the suspect. There needed to be a period after the word fault, not a “but.” Tamron gives her another landmine to step on. The podcast that she mad laughing at and mocking Faith and bragging about reporting her to the police was a year after she called the police. Tamron points out that even if she ever really thought it was Faith, a year later Stassi would have known for sure it wasn’t her. Yet she kept on slandering Faith on her show. Stassi says she though they were solving crimes. Tamron and I are both amazed at her apparent delusions. Plus, she’s a terrible liar.
I am shocked that Stassi didn’t bail during the first commercial break. Tamron let’s Stassi know that the Internet is buying what she is selling. Tamron says she is more concerned that Stassi doesn’t really understand the impact she could have had on Faith’s life. Stassi’s “diversity person” needs to go over that chapter with her again. This is getting worse and worse. Stassi has been taking a “how not to be racist” class or something. I don’t get the feeling she passed it.
Stassi Goes To Don’t Be Racist Class
Tamron points out that Stassi grew up in Louisiana. She seems to think that this would have taught Stassi something. It seems what it taught her was to be racist. Tamron wonders if living in LA might have made her more “woke.” It has not. We move on to the Nazi Chic incident on her Instagram which her team would not let them use on the show. Frankly, that is the least of her worries. Again, Stassi says she didn’t know any better at the time, but she does now.
So off we go again to podcast where she complained about all the speeches at the Oscars in 2017 when everyone was hashtagging #OscarsSoWhite. Stassi was complaining that all the winners were bringing it up in their speeches and said she is really sick of everyone making everything about race. And, “Why is is always just about African Americans?” Stassi says she really wanted to talk about that because now that she has gone to racism class and “learned about black history.” She is really embarrassed. I hope in her next semester of racism school they get to the social justice movement we are having now that she seems to be unaware of. Tamron just said that she is shocked by Stassi’s level of ignorance.
Lift Every Voice And Sing Stassi
Stassi practically out in the chorus of Amazing Grace…”I was blind but now, I see.” Sing it with me Stassi! Lift Every Voice and Sing, Stassi. I really do not know what I am watching here. Tamron asks Stassi to comment on Black Lives Matter. I don’t know who Stassi’s “how not to be racist” teacher is that she keeps referring to, but I don’t think she is passing the course.
Tamron asks if she thinks Jax Taylor should also be fired for his comments and his involvement with the Faith Stowers incident(s). Stassi says she doesn’t want to see any of her friends fired. Tamron asks Stassi how much what Stassi is doing now is because she has been fired from everywhere and she needs to work. She is not letting up on Stassi at all and I am here for it. Stassi says she wants to be a better person. She’s pregnant and she wants her daughter to be proud of her. #GENDERREVEAL She’s been a part of the problem and now she wants to be part of the solution.
Stassi says she doesn’t think she will ever be on Vanderpump Rules again. She also says she is entering a new phase in her life where “getting drunk and starting conflicts” just isn’t her journey anymore. And that is the merciful end of the very long interview.
I still love Stassi. People make mistakes all the time…big ones and they should not have to pay for it for the rest of their lives. Stassi, move on from Vanderpump and just be the best Mom and wife you can be. That’s more important than being in the limelight,
U r as much of an IDIOT AS SHE IS!!
SHE SHOULD SHUT HER MOUTH BEFORE SHE LOSES ANY SHRED OF SELF DECENCY SHE MIGJT HAVE LEFT!
That’s uncalled for
I agree.
💝
I absolutely agree, Lisa.
Hopefully she will learn from this
Seriously? She’s such an entitled, insecure, hypocritical, racist mean girl. She thinks she’s entitled to her luxurious life, instead of it being in the right place @ the right time. She doesn’t have any actual talent, her style sucks, she isn’t funny, interesting, the only thing stands out is being a basic bitch. She treats her friends, boyfriends-basically everyone in her life like shit, doesn’t even try to hide how much better she thinks she is. How many years have we watched her treating her birthday like a national holiday & bitching thru the entire week long affair, “it’s my birthday”? Puke.
I know reality tv stars have to be kinda obnoxious, or have a “loud” “hey look @ me” type of personality to be interesting to watch & we all have our faults but Stassi is just an all around asshole. But I don’t think she should’ve gotten fired when she did, she’s always been racist, her racist comments were @ least a year old. Being an all around bitch w/no filter is why she got famous & Bravo encouraged her behavior to all a sudden fire her because that’s what everyone else is doing? It made Bravo look worse, like they’re just doing it to save their asses, not because they actually care about racial equality. If they really did care they would’ve had more minorities on the show as full cast members, never would’ve put up with her & everyone else’s racist behavior from the start & would’ve been outraged by what they did to Faith when it was happening. Sorry for the long rant, I do love hearing everyone’s opinions & if we all agreed, why comment so I appreciate your comment even tho I rage responded!
I never liked Stacci. I think she is a very selfish & a cruel person. Its always good to see when someone like her falls on her sword. I feel bad for Faith & the whole episode reeks of white privilege. Hopefully as she ages she will mature & change her behavior. Everyone deserves a second chance. If anything her arrogance will be conquered & she will think twice before being so smug & hateful. I do wish her well & hope she had a healthy baby & a good marriage to Beau Vanderpunp Rules was always a guilty pleasure ( much lime RHONJ ) but she deserved to get fired.
That first season of VR she was such a horrible person, just nasty. She sort of made up for it about as much as one can I suppose and my distaste for her sort of abated, and it really did when Beau came into her life, but on second thought maybe my thinking she was a better person was a secondary manifestation of my man crush on Beau. That guy comes off as such a decent human being so I figured there must be something positive about her. Bit she manages to disappoint rather regularly. Not going to miss her. Hope she does well now that there’s a child involved. Also hope she doesn’t come back home she’s a freaking embarrassment to the city.
TT, You’re my sister from another mister.
And Stassi did not come off as sincere or believable, her diversity coach and her acting coach need more time to work with her, and I need to see her out here doing something…take an interest in poor children in the inner city, visit kids with cancer, raise money for the UNCF….anything other than flapping her lips and saying “I’m healed!”
MAYBE after she has her baby she can DO something to raise some MONEY for #BLM — because she isn’t raising any consciousness. Wait, who am I kidding … Bwahahaha…
Stassi is from New Orleans. She knows exactly what she was doing. She just didn’t think she’d get fired.
And didn’t for a long time.
^^^ yup
She was no friend to any Black or Asian classmates at Dominican, trust me. I’m surprised the things she said and did back then haven’t been publicized. She knew exactly what she was doing, she just never had any consequences.
But, but, but… Tiff.. she’s REFORMED! lol. She was paid a lot by Bravo for her white privileges’, she posted from her fancy pants house. It’s disgusting.
They finally removed her from the *notable alumni* ledger at the school. There’s a wall at Dominican with past attendees that have high profile jobs, until earlier this year Stassi was on it. The school is incredibly racist and had a scandal last year about Black girls wearing their natural hair & comments from white students about it. I’m surprised they removed her tbh, she fits their demographic.
Didn’t she go by “Stacy” at Dominican ? 🤔
I am so glad that Tamron held Stassi accountable for her actions. In my opinion Stassi still hasn’t grown and still doesn’t realize what she has truly done. Sorry not sorry but I am glad that she was “cancelled” and I wish that she didn’t land back on her feet so quickly.
How has she landed on her feet. She is being demonized. She needs much growth but let’s extend some appreciation for her completing an interview with a woman of color. She could have soft-balled her first interview. I hope she continues to educate herself and grow.
One that was arranged and heavily calculated yet still missed the mark. I don’t think she’s due credit at this stage.
I read that she was offered another reality show, that’s what I am referring too.
Stassi interviewing with Tamron was intentional.
@ Ellen-Evolution Media is in talks with Stassi for another reality show. Google and you will find out.
I had read that and saw that LVP saud no truth to it. If its true I think it’s a bad decision. Stassi needs to educate and show growth first. However, I felt Tamron was ruthless. Neither Stassi nor Tamron ( In what she did in colkege) thought about the ramifications. I am just wishing all peace and more importantly tolerance.
As Ariana said about Jax… and I’m paraphrasing this is not a mistake. This is not an error. This is a personality. This is who Stassi is. She knew what she was doing. The ignorant Oscar statements were blatantly racist. She knew better but she felt privileged enough to get away with it, like all her other stupid commentary and actions taken against a Black woman because of spite. She wants her career back. She deserves the backlash she gets. I don’t believe she’s learned a thing.
Am not in favor of this cancel culture that we are living inn , believe on second chances and the opportunity to give people chance to educate themself …I had said before here is a great opportunity for the networks like Bravo to improve their platform, have a season of V R with them addressing this issues..Hey I Love the series and watched Religiously Vanderpump Rules, Nobody born Racists is a learn behavior, but you can unlearn this thru education… let me leave this here is getting long, am sure people will get my point… very sad for Stassi Kind of like the mean girl personality…
And that’s why she continued to escalate. People liked that mean girl personality so long as it was aimed at someone else, or particularly someone they didn’t like.
Stassi needs to try to use her two degrees to get a regular job. She won’t be able to get sponsors to promote baby stuff on her social media for her income. She needs to come to terms that she isn’t going to be on TV and she really is now a basic bitch. Babies are expensive.
What are her two degrees in I don’t think I ever knew that
B.A in dipping pizza in ranch.
Masters in demonology.
My guess would be fashion & journalism.
bwahahahaha
I mean, clearly it wasn’t Black History or Divinity.
I think ( can be wrong) that she has a Bachelor’s degree and I remember her saying on an earlier episode of VRP that she went on to get her master’s in English or something like that because her parents would support her financially as long as she was in college. If she did complete a Master’s in English, she has a very wide area where she can apply for jobs. She just needs to realize that TV is done for her, and she should be happy about it. She can probably work from home without putting her child on social media. If she is as smart as she thinks is, she can figure it out. She just needs to shut the fuck up.
I could have sworn that on one reunion Raquel said that she was the only one of the cast to actually have a college degree.
I have never been all in with Stassi. I began to tolerate her more but I don’t know why there was something I just couldn’t quite wrap my heart around. I am glad that I did not. Instincts are a powerful thing. I hope that she does come to realization and grow from all this or our world and country will just keep on at this horrific level of immaturity. She is ignorant and stupid. AT 32 years old if you are not aware of your impact with action and words I fear that it will be a long and difficult road for you in many ways. I am so sick and tired of the people who still just don’t get the terrible impact all of this hate has on us all. I am sick and tired of listening to her and wish she would just go an live her life with her baby and Beau and hope I NEVER hear her name again.
You took one for the team! There’s no way I could’ve watched Stassi’s lies and ignorance. I’m glad to hear Tamron asked her real questions. And if you have to attend a class about how to not be a racist c u next Tuesday, you’re 100% racist all day everyday.
Just think, LVP said she would have never fired Stassi.
Listen I totally agree that Stassi is a extremely uneducated. What she has said in the past was as ignorant as anyone can be. And I find her statements and treatments are beyond wrong. And this is not a excuse for any of her actions. But if you step back and think of her family they are part to blame for how she sees and treats others. Also the world even 20yrs ago was on the racist side and put you in the south where they still don’t get it. Her actions and thoughts have a lot to do with where and how she was raised. The south still has a lot of problems. John Oliver did a great piece on race if you have the time. And TT you are amazing.
When one has lived an unapologetic life funded by Bravo, it’s hard for one to suddenly have to apologise free of charge.
So true. Well said,
Exactly. Andy Cohen treats Kenya as Manmy ( Hattie McDaniel love her ) as he does his best St. Louis Scarlett O Hara impression. We see you Andy ! We see each other. Kandi has the most iconic reads ! My personal faves quote
Claudia is reading Nene like hooked on phonics ! 😂🤣😂
Dumb and ignorant. I have met zillions of females like her.
Racists and people who are NOT anti-racist suck. I’m so glad she is canceled.
Stassi works with an “Anti-Racist ACCOUNTABILITY Coach!” Didn’t she help her name her new daughter?
Stassi’s new show: “We live in my ex’s POOL shed!”
“Stassi Gets Schooled” Each episode will focus on her one hour Zoom meeting with her Racism Deprogrammer. We’ll see her make a black friend, attend an AME church service (all five or six hours of it), Write a book report on the 1977 miniseries, Roots, write a book report on I Know Why The Caged Bird Sings, take her kid on a playdate with a single black mother and her child… I can see it all now.
NOT.
LOLOLO! I see an online cooking segment featuring collard greens slathered in ranch dressing. (LOVE you TT!)
To be honest I was ready to toss her many seasons ago. Black folks are just the last in a history of her being an asshole to everyone in her path from day one. I would bet that many castmates Are not so sorry to see her go. Wretched creature.
I don’t know who this girl is and never watched VR, but i have followed the story here on TT. She is a POS. “I just wasn’t anti-racist” LMAO FOH she deserves to be cancelled. All of this is just her true colors.
Stassi has talked with pride before about how dark she can be when she’s cutting someone off at the knees with her words. She thought being a bitch made her a bad ass. She just got showed how sick of her nasty ass people are. I hope she’s a better mother than she is a person.
omfg. “I’m wasn’t being racist, I just wasn’t anti-racist.” ARE YOU KIDDING???? Does she think anti racist action is simply not calling the cops on on innocent black people? I would have thought she’d at least have good enough publicists to convince her to pretend to have had a reality check but… Nope. I’m sad she’s having a baby. The last thing we need right now is people like her raising future generations.
There is actually a difference. Check out “How to be an Anti-Racist” by Ibram X. Kendi. Her de-programmer is probably using it while working with her.
Um, JUST DON’T be racist? It’s kind of easy.
Lol. It really really is.
First off that bitch didn’t finish high school, second she is a class a moron. Listening to her on any subject will cause loss of brain matter. Gawd I’m so glad she is gone, and her boyfriend needs a bath , so maybe she should go tend to that.
Brilliant recap, thanks so much for that because I feared watching the interview out of concern that the interviewer would go easy on Stassi. Stassi just doesnt get it. She did intentionally hurt a Black woman based on race. She will never take ownership of that, and Stassi is looking for her entree back into Hollywood. I don’t believe she’ll ever work again, and I can’t believe her enabler husband is presently working at a major casting company given his closes to ties to an active racist.
Ok apparently I have the unpopular opinion on this. I haven’t heard the podcast about her bragging about turning Faith in so maybe I need to listen to that. However if it’s really true that one of the victims identified Faith was it then reasonable she reported it?
I am not ready to brand someone a racist because they were privileged to not know the dangers of what a black person deals with. What other evidence is there that she’s a racist? I can’t assume she is because she reported a black woman to the police. I can say based on watching her throughout the show (VPR) she’s a mean girl. This is based on numerous comments or actions. I am not a fan of cancel culture with the exception of Epstein. The Networks suddenly growing a conscience is waaaayyyy past due.
Stassi is a big girl and while I don’t believe she had a racist intent when she did what she did maybe the universe sent her this karma for being a mean girl.
She’s a racist.
I see that the majority of people on here think so too, I just don’t see it so I am wondering what am I missing?
I want to say this..I do support and believe sone people grow up and out of ignorant, immature and petty behavior. Yet some people don’t…they just never have been put through enough bad consequences to change…some people are less selfish and eventually see their ways and change…some people refuse to look and deal with it. This interview was a good one in that Tamron didn’t let her wiggle out of any of her excuses. These are the consequences of acting (and possibly thinking) you can say or do mean girl crap and get away with it.
I’ve never liked her. Sick of her making it all about herself and acting like a bitch to her friends. Insisting that her friends listen to her mean girl opinions and heed them…or else! After the first season…when I excused her behavior bc of being so young and dealing w Jax…I got sick of her antics. I say….karmas a bitch. What goes around…will come around eventually. I don’t feel sorry for her. Bragging about attempting to ruin someone’s life bc you were told faith was the one that did the crime? No ma’am….that should never fly. She’s too old for that high school crap.
I can’t say that I disagree. I detested her her first few seasons. She was horrible person, but eventually her boyfriend came into her life on the show and I started to like her, but knowing what she did … I just can’t forgive that. I can’t. I feel sorry for husband at this point. I really do.
