Lisa Vanderpump SLAMS Cali Governor For ‘Hypocrisy’ After He’s Busted Mask-less In Public Amidst A Stay-At-Home Order!
Lisa Vanderpump is furious with California governor, Gavin Newsom, after he was busted dining at an upscale restaurant amid the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic.
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum sounded off about the incident, calling out Newsom as a hypocrite on Twitter.
“Hypocrisy at its finest,” Lisa wrote in a since-deleted tweet. “@GavinNewsom All the staff being soooo careful. Last week, you are safe at 9*59pm but 10*00pm …no it’s dangerous. Except at French Laundry.”
Newsom was slammed last week after Los Angeles news outlet, Fox 11 snagged photos of the Democrat governor and his wife dining at the French Laundry eatery, in Napa Valley.
The photos revealed Newsom, minus a mask, dining with a large group of people.
Coronavirus cases continue to climb in California, and L.A. County health officials have suspended all outdoor dining at local restaurants starting Wednesday, for three weeks. There have been 204 identified “outbreak” locations according to the L.A. County health department, but restaurants and bars account only for 3.1%, and nearly all establishments are chains. L.A. County officials reported 9 new deaths and 2718 new coronavirus cases on Sunday.
“Don’t do as I do, do as I say,” Lisa tweeted again at Newsom on Monday, adding the hashtags #lockdown and #restaurants.
Lisa raked in over 11k likes on the tweet, but some called her out for using her large platform to bash Newsom.
“Wow super disappointing to see you use your platform in this way,” one fan wrote, to which Lisa replied— “Did you not see him at French Laundry? Hypocrisy at its finest.”
Lisa, who owns restaurants PUMP, SUR and Tom Tom in Los Angeles and Vanderpump Cocktail Garden in Las Vegas, confirmed her voter status after being called out by another commenter.
“You get what you vote for,” the follower wrote.
“I didn’t vote and can’t,” Lisa, who is not an American citizen, responded.
Lisa’s Bravo featured restaurant, Villa Blanca, temporarily shut down in March during the early months of the pandemic. It was later announced that the closure would be permanent.
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills is on hiatus.
