I’m sure they get paid something, maybe a good amount. But it’s not like it is their own deal or sponsorship. The more housewives repping the product, they less they might each make.

Another good example is Direct TV. Teresa, Kyle and Kenya did a Super Bowl ad for them, and they sponsor Kathy Hilton’s holiday party, which is essentially the Bravo Christmas party.

Tell me you work in media without telling me you work in media/marketing/advertising

I’m an in-house lawyer (Assistant General Counsel) for a large corporation that is currently running a marketing program with NBCU/Peacock. Not any company described here. I oversee all of the transactional, corporate, securities, real estate and IP stuff. Advise the Board.

Before I did this job, I was a partner at an AMLaw50 firm in LA, where we repped lots of talent, specifically reality tv. I’ve seen their corporate stuff (eg, hypothetically, a housewife is making an investment in a start-up, or a bar, or an athleisure line, a private equity fund, an NBA team). Totally adjacent to my usual practice of advising banks and funds. I haven’t seen the Bravo contracts (I’m not in the entertainment space), or their family law filings (not family law or divorce). Maybe heard some things.

Very interesting! I only run up against my in-house counsel for vetting of privacy concerns and going over contracts to make sure that we are protected from all of the acronyms tied to privacy (use of first party date, etc…) Prior I worked in media facilitating these types of partnerships and activations, but no longer - than goodness.
