Page Six’s second-annual Virtual Reali-Tea’s Awards are upon us — and you can make your voices heard by picking the reality stars you think deserve to be honored at our live event on Oct. 6.
Voting is now open for each category, including “Musician of the Year,” “Best Reunion Performance,” and “Hot-Tea of the Year,” among others, as the full list of nominees has been revealed.
Personalities from a slew of reality shows across multiple networks including Bravo, ABC and Peacock landed themselves a spot on this year’s list of nominations.
From quotable fan-favorite “Real Housewives of Rhode Island” star Alicia Carmody and “Love Island USA” breakout Trinity Tatum, to conservationist-turned-dancing king Robert Irwin and OG heiress Paris Hilton, this year’s nominees run the gamut of stardom, but were all fixtures in viewers’ homes and hearts.
“VRT” hosts Danny Murphy and Evan Real will announce winners live on Oct. 6 at NYC’s Edison Ballroom, where countless favorite reality television stars will come together to celebrate the biggest and best moments from the year.
E!’s “The Golden Life” stars Luann de Lesseps, Sonja Morgan, Ramona Singer, Dorinda Medley and Kelly Bensimon will be in attendance to accept the coveted Golden Kettle (Lifetime Achievement Award), presented by Tri-State Cadillac.
De Lesseps, “Real Housewives of Potomac” star Ashley Darby, “Vanderpump Rules” alum Scheana Shay and “Real Housewives of Atlanta” star Drew Sidora are also slated to perform live at the gala-style event.
“The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City” star Whitney Rose and “The Traitors” Season 4 star Candiace Dillard Bassett are among the confirmed presenters, while “Summer House” veteran (and “Hot-Tea of the Year” nominee) Kyle Cooke will be on hand once again to deejay the show and VIP after-party.
Tickets to the VRT Awards, sponsored by Kahlúa and Tri-State Cadillac, are available to purchase now.
