Heavy/Bravo Kyle Richards.
Kyle Richards took a page from Lisa Vanderpump’s party planning book for “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” season 13 finale.
In the February 21, 2024 episode “Soirees and Separations,” Richards hired Vanderpump’s longtime celebrity party planner, Kevin Lee, to help curate her annual White Party. The RHOBH OG also secured SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California, for her bash, noting that she “did a DirectTV commercial” there and had connections.
“I learned about Kevin Lee from Lisa Vanderpump,” Richards shared in a confessional. “And if I’m going to be doing a party that is so over the top that it’s at SoFi Stadium, I need an over-the-top party planner.”

Lee has appeared on past episodes of RHOBH and “Vanderpump Rules” as Vanderpump’s luxury event planner. He even planned the wedding of Lisa Vanderpump’s daughter, Pandora, in 2011, per Wedding Style magazine. Fans may recall Lee’s catchphrase, “Shi shi shi shi, Beverly Hills,” and his penchant for “bling bling bling.”
While meeting with Lee for her White Party event, Richards asked about the possibility of having some cheerleaders make an entrance on the field.
“They’re going to be here just for you,” Lee replied. “Just when you’re walking out, they’re going to cheer you.”
Richards then cracked, “No wonder you do Lisa Vanderpump’s parties! This is sounding very Lisa Vanderpump.”
The “Halloween” star then used her best British accent to do an impersonation of the SUR owner. “Cheer me on,” Richards said as she mocked Vanderpump. “Oh, no, I would never let them do that for me. Please oh, no, please. I want to be humble. Stop, stop, stop, stop,” she added as she waved her hands in mock protest.
