Fans hail 'RHOBH' alum Lisa Rinna as she makes 'killer' debut in 'American Horror Stories'
BEVERLY HILLS, CALIFORNIA: Lisa Rinna recently made her debut on 'American Horror Stories', and fans couldn't help but gush about her performance.
Though the 'The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills' alum has a background in acting, having previously worked in NBC's 'Days of Our Lives' and Fox's 'Melrose Place', she is mostly known for her reality TV meltdowns.

However, she seemed to fit right in with the eerie spin-off of 'American Horror Story', 'American Horror Stories', the third season of which was recently released on Hulu, and it might lead to a new chapter in her acting career.
Horror enthusiasts have four new spooky episodes to feast on post-Halloween, and Lisa appears in the one named, 'Tapeworm'. While she did state that it would take "a lot of cash" for her to return to reality television, based on her success in 'American Horror Stories', her future may not be in reality television at all.
Under Lisa's Instagram post about her debut on the show, one fan wrote, "Post housewives Rinna is EVERYTHING! 🙌," while another added, "LISA BOOKED AND BUSYYYYYY."
Already asking for her return to the Hulu show, another fan wrote, "Ok, I don’t miss Rinna from RHONY anymore. I want her in this instead!!!!!!!! ❤️👏." "The Jennifer Coolidge of American horror stories, bring LISA back each season!!! 🔥," commented another follower, praising Lisa's acting skills.
One more wrote, "This is the WILDEST episode ever ! I was scared to drink my tap water after 😂 soooo good Lisa!!!!"
Another stated, "Yassssss! Thespian Rinna is BACK!" with a person chiming in, "THIS IS EVERYYYYTHING 👏👏👏 you killed this role."
Denise Richards refuses to be friends with Lisa Rinna following 'negative experience' on 'RHOBH'
After Denise Richards and Lisa Rinna participated in the 'RHOBH', their relationship took a serious hit, and the former recently opened up about the problems.
"We would still be friends — Lisa Rinna and I — if we weren't on the show. I think you learn a lot about people when you live with them, travel, or work with them. I had never worked with Rinna before, so we worked in the same movie — ironically, my ex-husband was in it," said Richards.
She added, "I didn't have a scene with her, and I didn't work with her," on Bethenny Frankel's podcast, 'Just B with Bethenny Frankel'.
"For me personally, would Aaron and I be married if we were on the show in 10 years? Absolutely. The show itself — that environment can change people itself," remarked Richards about her husband, Aaron Phypers.
About Lisa, she continued, "Absolutely. I do think Lisa Rinna — people knew who she was, but she didn't have the fame she has now. I will never be friends with her ever. How she could sacrifice a friendship for a friend that isn't going to last forever — at what cost."
"I also had a negative experience. My experience with Lisa Rinna was so bad that I thought, 'OK, what would happen next season?' I don't know if they will ask me back. I just did a few episodes. I didn't call to say, 'Hey, can I come back?' I have no ego, either," stated Richards.
She further said, "After my second season, because I wanted it to be real, I said, 'How would it make sense if all the women f------ hate me?'."
"Almost everyone did except for Garcelle [Beauvais] and Sutton [Stracke], but everyone else was such an a------ to me. I thought, 'How would it make sense for me to come back?' That's where you learn the process of what the show is," mentioned the 'Wild Things' star.
She also talked about returning to 'RHOBH' now that Lisa is no longer a part of it.
Why did Lisa Rinna leave 'RHOBH'?
In a May 2023 interview with ES Magazine, Lisa Rinna disclosed that she departed from 'RHOBH' following a dream she had that her late mother, Lois Rinna, who passed away on November 15, 2021, had advised her to leave the program.
"Who wants to leave a job?" stated Lisa, adding, "But I think we all knew it was time."
