The real estate reality TV community is getting catty.
After Josh Flagg, star of “Million Dollar Listing Los Angeles,” called Christine Quinn and Maya Vander, of “Selling Sunset” actors pretending to be agents, the women clapped back at him, DailyMail.com reported.
Last week Flagg posted a video to his Instagram that he captioned, “If you’d like to watch a real estate show with licensed agents, make sure to watch last night’s episode of MDLLA on Peacock. If you want to watch actors pretend to be agents, tune into my newest YouTube video … where I review ‘Selling Sunset’.”
In the comments, Vander, who left the Oppenheim Group and the series last year, responded to Flagg’s criticism, saying, “Haha, at least I do.. and I sell. Your comments are funny,” the outlet reported.
Below that, Quinn, who also left the cast at the end of the show’s fifth season, appeared to throw a veiled shot at her former team and the show. “The joke is on y’all if you think Selling Sunset was ever about real estate,” she wrote.
When another commenter asked Quinn if any of the “Selling Sunset” stars were actually licensed agents, she responded, “I can’t speak for the rest of the extras, but I can speak on my friends who I know do in fact have their licenses.” She went on to say that herself, Vander, Davina Potratz and Chelsea Lazkani were licensed agents.
Last year, Flagg’s co-stars, Josh and Matt Altman slammed “Selling Sunset” in an interview with The Kyle and Jackie O Show on the radio.
“It’s good entertainment,” Josh Altman said in the interview. “I mean, they’re not real realtors…”
When asked by hosts Jackie “O” Henderson and Kyle Sandilands if the stars were “more like actors,” he responded, “Well, I know they’re models. It’s entertainment.”
