Original story, 8:00 a.m.:
Vanderpump Rules star Stassi Schroeder has reportedly been dropped by both her agency and publicist. The news comes after her former costar Faith Stowers revealed Stassi called the police on her. Per Variety, a spokesman for agency UTA says Stassi is no longer a client, while Metro Public Relations told the outlet, “She became a client when her publicist joined our company in July 2018. We made the decision this weekend to part ways with Stassi.”
As a reminder, Faith detailed the racism she experienced on Vanderpump Rules during an Instagram Live with Candace Renee Rice, saying that Stassi and Kristen Doute called the police on her.
“I believe it hit the ceiling for me and made me really want to run for the hills, when Kristen and Stassi decided they were going to call the cops on me,” she said. “This is when I quit—like, I left the show. I was invited back to tell my truth but decided it wasn’t going to do anything for me.”
She went on to explain the truly despicable reason why her costars called the police, saying, per Us Weekly:
“There was this article on...Daily Mail where there was an African American lady. It was like a weird photo, so she looked very light-skinned and had these different, weird tattoos or whatever. They showcased her, and I guess this woman was robbing people....The woman was at large…and they called the cops and said it was me. This is, like, a true story. I heard this from actually Stassi during an interview [....] It was just funny, because they thought it was me because it was a Black woman with a weave. So, they just assumed it would be me, and they called the cops on me...It didn’t work, so they were upset about that.”
Stassi has since been dropped by several of the brands she works with and has issued a public apology on Instagram.
