Luann de Lesseps stays booked and busy! Not only is The Real Housewives of New York City alum, 60, making her second appearance as Noelle Victoria on Murdoch Mysteries, but she’s also hitting the road for the North American leg of her wildly successful “Marry F Kill” cabaret tour.
Here, the Love Hotel star answers some fun burning questions for Star.
What kind of surprises do you have in store for the latest leg of your cabaret tour?
Oh darling, there’s always surprises! In the winter, Tilda Swinton surprised me by introducing me on stage. That was epic and so very special. What’s special about the latest leg of my tour is that we’re doing a new show called The Luniverse. It’s a way for my fans to get an inside look at never before seen stories, moments, and memories.
You’re also returning to Murdoch Mysteries — what can fans expect?
The episode will air right before my Luniverse Show in Toronto on October 9. It was a ton of fun, and an episode you do not want to miss. Murdoch has never had a guest star in a premiere episode, so I’m honored to be the first!
Fans have been thrilled to see you hanging out with your former RHONY costars Jill Zarin, Sonja Morgan and Kelly Bensimon, in the Hamptons this summer. What was your favorite memory you’ve made with them?
I love my OG girls. We truly are all friends, which is why I think the fans gravitate towards us so much. Our connections are real and that makes a big difference. We’ve been having a blast catching up over lunches, boat rides and lots of tennis matches. My girls still got game!
Are there any discussions with Bravo about the OGs coming back?
One may never know — I know the fans certainly want us back. It’s the number one thing everyone says to us.
Where do you and Bethenny Frankel stand now following your reunion in the Hamptons — and subsequent rift — last year?
I don’t see Bethenny as she now lives in Miami. I wish her and [daughter] Brynn well. I know the internet is fascinated with Bethenny eating chicken salad, but that’s about the extent of knowledge I have with her.
Fans loved watching you look for love on Love Hotel. Are you still in communication with any of your suitors?
Absolutely, I just got off the phone with James [Quine] as a matter of fact. I keep in touch with a few of the fellas. We’ve become friends, and the girls and I talk all the time.
Your sexy photoshoot for Playgirl proved you’ve still got it. Can you describe your beauty and wellness routine?
Balance is really important. A healthy diet, but don’t deprive yourself of a sweet treat. Life is too short. I do a lot of meditation, I’m very spiritual; that truly is the best wellness routine of all.
You’ve been featured on so many reality television shows — what are your five Dos and Don’ts?
DO be real
Audiences connect when you show who you truly are.
DO be authentic
If you put on an act, people see right through it.
DO be true to yourself
Stick to your values and stand firm, even when the drama heats up.
DO be fun
Reality TV should entertain, and bringing joy and laughter keeps people watching.
DO be cool
Handle the highs and lows with grace, because nobody likes it when you’re uncool.
DON’T be uncool
Trust me, it never works.
