'Vanderpump Rules' stars get quizzed on everything from hairstyles to favorite cast members

Would taking a shot really be a punishment for the hard-partying cast of Vanderpump Rules? If it’s a shot of ginger juice, the answer is a resounding yes.

On the latest episode of Yahoo Entertainment’s Reality Star Showdown, Vanderpump stars Tom Sandoval and Ariana Madix went head-to-head in a game called Shot Clock, hosted by The Ellen DeGeneres Show producer Tracy Gold.

As one might guess, the coupled-up reality stars faced down tough questions against a ticking clock. Failure to make the cut resulted in a shot of pickle juice, ginger juice, celery juice or tequila.

When Ariana was asked to “name five things Tom needs in order to do his hair” in under ten seconds, she couldn’t quite get to the finish line. She rattled off hairspray, velcro (Tom’s explanation: “it pushes it, like, up and forwards”), blow dryer, and his hands before getting buzzed out.

Ironically, the co-author of the new book Fancy AF Cocktails demurred on the tequila, instead opting to happily down some pickle juice.

Later on, it was time to play favorites. Ariana was tasked with ranking several female Vanderpump cast members from favorite to least favorite. Her order? Scheana Shay, Katie Maloney-Schwartz, Kristen Doute, Stassi Schroeder and Lala Kent. Let’s hope they weren’t watching.
