We're finding out an awful lot about Stassi Schroeder this week, and the Vanderpump Rules star's long-awaited memoir is still two weeks away.
In the past 24 hours alone, we learned that Stassi flirted with Scientology when she first got to LA and that -- like Kristen Doute -- Ms. Schroeder can be a bit of a "problem traveler."
Stassi Schroeder drops major bombshells in her upcoming tell-all book which hits the shelves on April 16.
Next Level Basic: The Definitive Basic Bitch Handbook offers girls advice on the importance of taking an extra pair of panties on a date and spills the tea on some of Stassi's most bizarre experiences.
On Monday night's episode of Vanderpump Rules, there was a good deal of talk about James Kennedy's drinking problem.
And while it certainly seems as though James has some serious issues with the sauce, it's important to bear two things in mind:
We can safely say this about Vanderpump Rules Season 7 Episode 1:
It did not lack for drama.
Vanderpump Rules star Stassi Schroeder has been notoriously unlucky in love.
Sadly, Stassi typically attracts guys like Jax Taylor and Patrick Meagher, who are almost impossibly douchey, even by the standards of GNC-junkie West Hollywood Zoolander types.
By the time they reach their sixth season, most reality shows are beginning to show their age.

If you watched last night's episode of Vanderpump Rules, you may have been surprised and disappointed as several cast members engaged in the egregious practice of victim-shaming in an attempt to bury some unsettling allegations.
What could have served as an edifying reminder that the lessons of the #MeToo era often force both men and women to confront uncomfortable truths was instead a painful lesson in how not to handle an accusation by a woman who has been mistreated.
If you've been watching the current season of Vanderpump Rules, you know that former SUR girl and reigning controversy queen Stassi Schroeder is having a tough go of it.
Granted, many of Stassi's problems are self-created, but it's still jarring to see the former queen bee take such a tumble from the top of the social ladder.
On last night's Vanderpump Rules, sh-t got real.
And we don't mean "drunk people yelled at each other about pasta" real - we're talking "actual social issues of consequence were discussed on a Bravo reality show" real.
There are certain words in the English language that should never go together:
Donald Trump and genius. Justin Bieber and humble. Ryan Gosling and ugly.
