Remy Ma Was Up for ‘Real Housewives’ in NYC, Screwed by Geography

Remy Ma was in early talks to become the first rapper-turned-‘Real Housewife,’ but she ran into a major problem — because as any realtor would tell her, it’s all about location, location, location.

Sources familiar with the situation tell TMZ … ‘RHONY’ star Eboni K. Williams brought up Remy’s name to casting several months ago for the Bravo reality series … suggesting Remy would be a great addition to the show.

We’re told the casting team had a virtual chat with Remy and the conversation went really well … but they hit a huge roadblock when they found out the Bronx-born MC now lives in New Jersey full-time.

Our sources say the rapper used to have an apartment in midtown Manhattan, but she doesn’t anymore. At the time she was recommended to casting it was still believed she had ties to NYC.

While the Bravo series is historically loose about the cast’s “wife” status, they’re pretty strict when it comes to geography — so all convos with Remy about “Real Housewives of New York City” ended.

We’re told well-known NYC newscaster, Tamsen Fadal, from the CW affiliate PIX11 was also being considered, but ultimately that didn’t work out, either.

Bravo hasn’t officially announced the new cast for season 14. As we reported in April, housewives honcho Andy Cohen announced the network is completely rebooting and recasting ‘RHONY’ after 13 seasons.
