Brandi Glanville has Jill Zarin’s back.
The “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” alum defended Zarin after her fellow Bravolebrity was axed from E!’s “Real Housewives of New York City” reunion show, “The Golden Life,” due to her scathing take on Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl 2026 halftime show.
Glanville, 53, defended Zarin via X on Tuesday — but made it clear she is a big fan of the Grammy-winning singer.
“OK #1 I have a HUGE crush on BadBunny I wanna be his Mrs. Robinson,” she gushed, adding that his performance on Sunday “rocked.”
Glanville continued, “My friend @Jill Zarin has her own opinion & I don’t agree with it AT ALL but opinions aren’t wrong, they’re subjective.
“I want to watch Jill on TV explain herself & hopefully learn something,” she concluded. “Or we can just keep watching ‘yes people’ afraid to share.”
Zarin, 62, railed against the firing to InTouch that same day, saying the network “didn’t even give [her] a chance.”
The entrepreneur told the outlet, “I took [the post] down right away. People make mistakes. I’m human.”
Zarin made headlines Monday for blasting Bad Bunny’s record-breaking performance at San Francisco’s Levi’s Stadium, which she dubbed “the worst halftime show ever” in an Instagram rant.
Over the weekend, Zarin told her followers, “I just don’t think it was appropriate to have it in Spanish. … I don’t speak Spanish. I would’ve liked to have known the words he was saying.
“To me, it looked like a political statement because there were literally no white people in the entire thing,” she claimed. “I’m not taking a side, one way or the other. … I think it was an ICE thing. I think that the NFL sold out, and it’s very sad.”
Zarin also took aim at the songwriter “grabbing his [groin] area … every five seconds because he’s so insecure.”
Backlash was swift, with Zarin Fabrics denouncing their founder’s since-deleted social media upload.
Zarin’s daughter, Ally Shaprio, disagreed with her mom via Instagram Stories and called Bad Bunny’s performance “the best halftime show in years.”
She pointed out, “It was, like, a true performance with a story line and actors and the direction, lighting everything was perfect.”
Andy Cohen, for his part, took a swipe at Zarin and Taylor Armstrong, who also slammed Bad Bunny, on “Radio Andy” Monday.
“Call E!” he said. “[Those are] two people who are not employed by Bravo anymore.”
“The Golden Life” is set to start filming this spring, with Kelly Bensimon, Sonja Morgan and Ramona Singer taking part.
