Ariana Madix's (Inevitable) Garage Sale Inventory List

On May 22, photos of Queen Ariana Madix carrying boxes out of Nightmare Fuel HQ (her shared home with Tom Sandoval) surfaced online, suggesting she was dipping out for good. First I stood up and cheered, then I zoomed in and noticed the boxes were neatly labeled “finances” and Ariana was wearing a SoFi sweatshirt. Once the paid partnership post made it onto her IG grid, it was clear we were all duped. She’s not moving out (yet), but she is raking in that sweet, sweet cash only an all-in-one finance app can offer! 

Ariana-Madix-Boxes

In my goat-cheese-ball-loving-heart of hearts, I am confident Ariana’s epic move is on the horizon. And when it does happen, I’d imagine she won’t just be returning her cable box or curbing a Jax-stained futon, but deliciously purging all the Sandoval-tinged bullshit she’s accumulated over the years. Let’s just say I was born ready for what I hope to be an epic, most extra revenge garage sale for the ages. 

I imagine of swarms of garage-sale lovers and fans descending upon Valley Village, haggling over Ariana’s pit-stained SUR bartender button-downs, Tom Sandoval’s tangled wigs, and all the tasteless dead weight in between. 

I’ve composed a comprehensive list of Ariana Madix’s garage sale items that definitely don’t spark joy. Though at one point they might’ve been good as gold, now, these items need to be tossed, or at the very least, touched in public.

*Everything is under $20.
