Lisa Rinna, television personality, actress, and entrepreneur, recently sat down for a playful and revealing conversation with Katya Zamolodchikova, a popular drag queen and RuPaul’s Drag Race alum for Grindr’s Am I The A**hole podcast. The two discussed a wide range of topics, from Rinna’s ideal cast for a biopic about her life, to relationship dynamics, and advice for those navigating the world of online dating.

Casting Her Biopic: Rinna’s Dream Picks

The iconic drag queen asked Rinna who she would choose to play her in a biopic, suggesting three different actresses for various stages of her life—young, middle-aged, and older. Lisa Rinna was quick to offer her picks, starting with Selena Gomez for a younger version of herself, a choice Katya enthusiastically endorsed. ā€œOh, hell yeah,ā€ Katya responded with a smile.

Rinna then considered ChloĆ« Sevigny for her middle-aged years, admitting that Sevigny’s distinct style would suit the role perfectly. Katya agreed, saying ā€œSevignyā€ in approval. For an even younger version, Rinna opted for Jenna Ortega, best known for her portrayal of Wednesday Addams. ā€œYeah, I think she’d be great,ā€ Rinna said with a nod.

Katya then offered her own picks for a potential biopic. She suggested Amanda Seyfried as a middle-aged version, noting that while Seyfried is typically seen as a blonde, she would make an interesting choice for the role. Rinna seemed intrigued by the idea, saying, ā€œI like it.ā€ Katya also threw in ChloĆ« Grace Moretz, and for the older version, she chose none other than Angelina Jolie.

Rinna was impressed by Katya’s choices, replying, ā€œWell, that’s lovely. I wouldn’t even touch that,ā€ before adding an amusing twist to the scenario. Katya suggested that the movie could include a scene where both Rinna and Jolie, playing versions of Rinna, engage in a dramatic fight with chainsaws. ā€œBejeweled naked. I agree,ā€ Rinna quipped, embracing the fun and chaos of the idea. Katya elaborated, suggesting that both heads would be chopped off at the end in a dramatic flourish. ā€œThat’s so cunt. That’s cunt,ā€ Rinna laughed.

Relationship Realities: Advice for Dating and Marriage

The two also delved into more serious territory when Katya asked Rinna about her thoughts on relationships and marriage, particularly regarding men on dating apps like Grindr. Rinna began by questioning whether people on Grindr were actually seeking marriage or simply casual encounters. ā€œI don’t know how you look for marriage material,ā€ she admitted, suggesting that the traditional playbook for finding a life partner may not exist.

Katya agreed, saying it’s tough to gauge whether someone is ā€œthe oneā€ right away. Rinna echoed this sentiment, pointing out that many people rush into marriage without truly knowing one another. ā€œI think a lot of people rush into it,ā€ Rinna said, adding that it often takes a lot of time to truly understand your partner.

ā€œHow many dates do you think it takes to tell if someone is the one?ā€ Katya asked. Rinna responded that she thinks it takes at least two years to truly understand someone. ā€œYou have to live with somebody,ā€ she continued, explaining that it’s crucial to see a person’s habits and how they adapt to different situations. “When things are nice, they’re nice. But what happens when things are really bad? You want to see how they react.”

Katya agreed, quipping that living in separate houses on separate streets might be the secret to maintaining a healthy relationship. Rinna laughed, noting the difficulty of keeping a long-term relationship intact. ā€œI think what we’ve done and been together for 32 years has been… it’s remarkable. We didn’t kill each other, first of all,ā€ Rinna reflected, sharing her appreciation for her long-standing marriage.

Rinna also acknowledged the challenge of keeping the spark alive in a relationship. ā€œWe still like each other,ā€ she said, before adding, ā€œWe’re still attracted to each other. Sometimes we’re like, ā€˜What? How?’ It’s a miracle.ā€

Katya agreed, noting that lasting relationships are rare, and Rinna’s 32-year marriage is nothing short of extraordinary. ā€œIt’s amazing,ā€ Katya remarked.

Navigating Marriage: Keeping Things Fresh

Rinna shared her thoughts on the secret to keeping her marriage alive and thriving, joking that good “porn” can sometimes help maintain a healthy dynamic. She emphasized the importance of maintaining attraction and mutual respect in long-term relationships, acknowledging the challenge of making it work despite external pressures.

As the conversation continued, Rinna revealed that she has observed a troubling trend among couples who post excessively about their relationships on social media. ā€œI see it every day—people posting all these lovey-dovey photos,ā€ she said. She noted that the public display of perfection often signals trouble ahead. ā€œI think it’s a setup for failure,ā€ she added, cautioning against oversharing on social media. Katya agreed, suggesting that keeping some parts of your life private is the best approach.

Rinna also advised against renewing vows, a practice that some couples do after a significant milestone. ā€œNever renew your vows,ā€ she insisted. ā€œIt’s a kiss of death, honey.ā€ Katya quickly added, ā€œDon’t renew your vows or you’ll get divorced,ā€ emphasizing Rinna’s point.
