Ariana Madix Shares Some Exciting Career News: "I Am So Thrilled..."
The Vanderpump Rules cast member will be showing off her acting chops on the small screen very soon.
Ariana Madix will be returning to TV very soon. The Vanderpump Rules cast member announced on Tuesday, Oct. 29 in an Instagram post that she will be making a guest appearance on the small screen and you can bet that she could not be any more excited about this.
Variety was the first to report that Ariana will be playing herself during a special guest appearance on a Season 3 episode of Will Trent. In an Instagram post to her feed announcing the news, Ariana took to the comments, where she revealed that she is ready to go. "I'm so excited," she commented, alongside a heart-eye emoji and several red hearts. "See you soon."
Ariana then took to her own Instagram Story, where she added, "I am so thrilled and can't wait to work with everyone," she wrote, also tagging one of the writers and noting that they need "to come to set."
This will be Ariana's latest small screen job this year. Earlier this year, she hosted Love Island USA Season 6 on Peacock.
Ariana Madix "wouldn't change anything" about her career
Acting is something that Ariana has always wanted to do. After receiving her Bachelor's degrees in Theatre and Broadcast Communications from Flagler College, Ariana moved to New York City to pursue her dreams of becoming an actor. After landing a number of roles (more on that later) and moving to Los Angeles, she became a full-time cast member on VPR in Season 3.
But, she told Vanity Fair in January, that she was always working towards her acting goals and wouldn't change anything about her trajectory. "My goal was to always be a working actor," she said. "It's something that took, for me, outside of Vanderpump, between 10 and 20 years to have steady work."
"You know how in movies when you go back in time and you change something, and then everything else is different?" she continued. "I wouldn't want to change anything."

Ariana Madix's Latest Update on Something About Her Sandwich Shop
But acting isn't the only exciting thing going on in Ariana's life. Ariana also has a sandwich shop — Something About Her — which she co-owns with her BFF, Katie Maloney. The West Hollywood eatery has been a hit among celebrities and patrons alike, and has now introduced a tea service.
After Ariana teased "Something About Tea" earlier this month, the sandwich shop held its first tea time on Sunday, October 27. The tea time menu, posted to the café's Instagram Story, features their take on tea sandwiches, including a cucumber and whipped chive goat cheese sandwich. Tea time guests can also choose from an assortment of scones and sweet treats, and sip on several loose-leaf tea blends, which includes the Something About Her signature herbal tea blend.
It's unclear if tea time will become a reoccurring event at Something About Her, after they host an upcoming tea time on Sunday, November 3. But, judging from the menu, it seems great.
