Most Fabulous Bravo Personalities: #18 - Jo De La Rosa
As part of the NaBloPoMo celebration, I’m posting my list of top 30 Most Fabulous Bravo Personalities. The points of qualification? Only one: be utterly fabulous. “Fabulous can mean intriguing, funny, hot, crazy…or all of the above. Stop back every day during November to see if you favorite star has made the list!
Today’s Fabulous #18 is Jo De La Rosa, formerly one of the Real Housewives of Orange County

Why is Jo fabulous? I’m not going to lie - too much of Jo, and the girl just grates on my nerves. You know what though? She is what this show is all about - even when someone has the “perfect” life, it is not perfect by far. Jo was born in Peru and her parents came to live in the OC when they won the lottery, and I love that about her. She wasn’t born into wealth, so she knows what it is like to work for your money. And honestly, Jo’s little freak outs were always justified. Slade was not good to her, not by a long stretch. More than one I wanted to slap him for treating her like she was three years old.
I’m not saying that Jo’s the brightest or even the prettiest - but I do think that she’s one of the most sincere. She really, really tried to do what she thought was best all of the time, and even when I did not agree with her, I understood where she was coming from. Maybe it’s because I’m so close to her age? In any case, Jo De La Rosa, You are FABULOUS. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise.
