It’s been far too long since Christine Chiu has been on our screens. Christine headlined Netflix’s popular show, Bling Empire, during its three-season run. And we haven’t seen her on TV since the show ended in 2022. Now, after several years, Christine is pondering coming back to reality TV. But will she make the move? I hear there’s an opening on Real Housewives of Beverly Hills …
Bling Empire star Christine Chiu calls reality TV “its own monster”
Christine was one of the leads on Bling Empire during her time on the show. And much to her chagrin, she had felt she was cast as the villain. Ain’t nothing wrong with being good at being bad. Christine admitted, “From the production perspective, it achieved the goal, right?”
However, would Christine come back to reality TV as a villain, or at all? Christine dished her thoughts to PEOPLE. She said, “It’s its own monster, and you have to be super ready for it. And if anything is going to cause hair to fall out, I feel like that could be very inducing to a loss of hair.”
Christine teased she had been talking to some executives but didn’t spill the tea as to who. She said, “And maybe I actually have met with, I don’t want to say which execs, but it’s in the environment.”
Rumors have been swirling for years that Christine might join Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. After all, she lives there and is besties with Kathy Hilton. Christine even came to Kathy’s defense when Kathy went toe to toe with Lisa Rinna back in Season 12.
Unfortunately for fans, it might not happen just yet. Christine said, “I don’t think I’ll join [the] Housewives franchise per se, but I’m not opposed to Bravo as a whole or NBCUniversal.” She had also told PEOPLE in 2024 that she almost joined RHOBH back in 2014.
Christine shared, “I actually got the contract for it. At that time, somebody on my father’s side passed away, and then my dog was on the verge of passing away, so emotionally I don’t think I was quite ready.”
Bling Empire is streaming on Netflix.
