Rumors have been spreading like wildfire about Kanye West's ex, Julia Fox, joining the famous reality show, 'The Real Housewives of New York City.' Julia, who is known for her role in 'Uncut Gems,' and for being director Josh Safdie's muse, spoke about these rumors after she was linked to the next season of popular reality series. It was revealed that someone brought Julia's name to the production team and said she was interested.

The production company is currently active in New York City, talking to various groups of friends. But there is no news about the company even approaching Julia Fox for a conversation. Meanwhile, Julia Fox, 32, who seems to live her life as a piece of performance art, denied rumors about her joining the show. She said, "This is false." Julia Fox is on good terms with 'Housewife' Leah McSweeney, whom she met through Alcoholics Anonymous.

" But there were a few supportive tweets like this one that stated, "leah, julia fox, eboni and tinsley for rhony 2.0 … slay.'
