Ariana Madix, Scheana Shay, and Katie Maloney enjoyed a girls’ night out in Hollywood on Friday, where they shaded Ariana’s ex-boyfriend, Tom Sandoval, as he performed with his band, Tom Sandoval & the Most Extras, in nearby Montclair.
Amid rumors claiming Ariana will be featured as a celebrity contestant on the upcoming season of Dancing With the Stars, Sandoval faced backlash from fans as he performed shirtless — although insiders suggested he didn’t mind the hate.
In a series of posts shared by Bravo Snark Side on Instagram, a video was seen of Sandoval being taunted with “Ariana” chants. However, it was also noted that, amid the cries of love for his ex, Sandoval’s ego was “fully intact.”
In another post, shared by Bravo Breaking News on Instagram, a Reddit account of Sandoval’s performance was seen.
“I didn’t personally go, but I’m part of a Facebook group in which a few people went to the [Tom Sandoval & the Most Extras] show last night. It was his first show since the night the scandal broke, and by all accounts he’s loving this!” the Redditor stated. “He referred to himself as the artist formerly known as Scandoval and thanked the crowd for the high ratings of season 10.”
Amid Sandoval’s show, Ariana and her Pump Rules castmates were caught chanting “f-ck Tom!” during Emo Nite in Hollywood.
According to a report from Daily Mail on April 9, Ariana, Scheana, and Katie were seen on stage at the event, where Ariana threw her middle fingers in the air as she enjoyed time with friends.
Even Emo Nite founder TJ Petracca gave the ladies a shoutout as he said, “God, he wishes he was as cool as these girls,” seemingly in reference to Sandoval, whose affair with Raquel Leviss was exposed just over a month ago.

During their time on stage, Ariana, Scheana, and Katie sang along to Kelly Clarkson’s “Since U Been Gone” and The All-American Rejects’ “Gives You Hell” while wearing black sweatshirts that said, “Every Nite Is VPR Nite.”
As for Ariana’s potential role on Dancing With the Stars, she’s expected to be featured on season 32, which premieres this September.
“ABC is in late stage conversations with [Ariana] to be a contestant to join DWTS this fall,” an insider confirmed to Page Six on April 9. “[Ariana] has already received all of the approvals and sign-offs from NBC Universal.”
Vanderpump Rules season 10 airs Wednesdays at 9/8c on Bravo.
