Struggle Bus Chronicles: Miami Trip and Met Gala Thoughts

Stassi and Lo are back from Miami! Is it age, is it kids, or is it just the content creator grind? Stassi's hitting her breaking point explaining why those 'vacation' photos are actually WORK trips involving press tours, insane scheduling, and just trying to keep her eyes open. Plus, Stassi actually enjoyed Miami this time?! She's spilling all the tea about her surprise meetup at the F1, the exclusive parties, and how she FINALLY sees the city's charm. Stassi gets real about the tug-of-war between motherhood and her career, the guilt of leaving her kids, and the desperate need for a couple of lymphatic massages. And because they can’t help themselves, they’re giving their unfiltered opinions on the Met Gala's fashion. Who were their favorites, who were the duds?

Stassi sits down with one of Vanderpump Villa Season 2’s breakout personalities, Hagen Bach, for a no-filter convo that takes you behind the scenes. Hagen shares how he landed the role—from getting scouted via email to leaning into his past housekeeping experience (yes, he actually scrubbed toilets in an Italian castle—24/7 cameras and all). Stassi opens up about her social anxiety and awkward first impressions. They dive into spicy hypotheticals about the Villa cast (who wouldn’t Stassi save?), toxic traits, the Gen Z vs. millennial debate (RIP crying laughing emoji), and Hagen's incredible dream collab with… Princess Diana? There’s gossip, TV hot takes, eyebrow appreciation, and even a sweet moment where Hagen reassures Stassi —despite that b-day moment still haunting her. Come for the behind-the-scenes gossip, stay for the laughs—and meet a Gen Z star who lives to press your buttons. What a time to be alive.Thanks for supporting our sponsors:Progressive: Visit Progressive.com to see if you could save on car insurance.Hiya: Receive 50% off your first order.
