In response to a meme circulating on social media that referenced Vanity Fair's recent exposé on Bravo's Real Housewives franchise, late-night host Andy Cohen expressed his amusement over the allegations of racism made against Real Housewives of New York (RHONY) star Ramona Singer. The meme account @watchwhatcrappens shared a video clip, with the caption "Vanity Fair breaks the news that adults drink and Ramona is racist," to which Cohen responded with a single cry-laughing emoji.

The controversy stems from Vanity Fair's allegation that Singer used a racial slur during a conversation with a Black crew member while filming RHONY's 13th season. However, Cohen's reaction suggests he is taking the situation lightly.

While some fans criticized Cohen for seemingly laughing at racism, others continued to show their support for him and the Bravo network in the comments. Several Bravo viewers pointed out that the Vanity Fair exposé didn't reveal anything new to them, as they claim to have been aware of the allegations made in the article beforehand.

Singer herself has adamantly denied using the racial slur and has stated that she has always had a positive relationship with fellow housewife Eboni Williams, who claimed she considered leaving the show over Singer's alleged racist remarks. The reality star was recently axed from Bravocon and also lost her job as a real estate agent at Douglas Elliman following the allegations.

Sources close to Singer have stated that the issue was already investigated by the Bravo show's production company earlier this year, and she was cleared to continue working on the series. It remains to be seen how this controversy will impact Singer's future on the show.

Andy Cohen is currently in Las Vegas for BravoCon, a three-day event centered around the network's reality TV shows and stars. He shared footage of himself being driven around the city on Instagram later in the day.

As the fallout from the Vanity Fair exposé continues, the Real Housewives franchise faces increased scrutiny over its handling of diversity and racial issues among its cast members. The controversy surrounding Ramona Singer serves as a reminder that discussions about race and discrimination within the reality TV realm are far from resolved.
