Of course the newest Real Housewife arrives with a screenshot cliffhanger.
Influencer and comedian Claudia Oshry says incoming Real Housewives of New York City cast member Hailey Glassman spent years dropping snide DMs about her body and voice. On Monday, Oshry posted a video montage of alleged messages dating back to 2017. My read: it’s 2026, and while shade is the Housewives’ house wine, body-shaming is a stale pour.
“Shade is a sport; body-shaming is a foul.”
The Moment
In a TikTok and Instagram Reel posted Monday, Oshry (best known as Girl With No Job) held up what she says are direct messages from Glassman: “Omg your voice is so annoying. Like Janice from Friends,” plus a run of comments focused on Oshry’s weight and GLP-1 use. She also read alleged lines like “Skinny minnie, now… you gotta own you’re on wegovy,” and a pitch-y note about a “30s neck lift” tagged “#GlassmanPlasticSurgery.”
Oshry added that the messages spanned years, even showing a Mother’s Day note paired with another body remark. The timing? The posts hit just as Glassman – a public relations pro who once made tabloid rounds for dating Jon & Kate Plus 8 alum Jon Gosselin – was named among the new RHONY faces alongside Erin Lichy, Jessel Taank, Sai De Silva, and newcomers Erika Hammond and Daisy Toye, per Bravo’s official channels.
As of publication, Glassman hasn’t issued a public response on her verified accounts. Bravo hasn’t addressed the DMs specifically.
The Take
Housewives runs on conflict, but there’s a difference between zingers and zeroing in on someone’s body. We’re in the GLP-1 era, where people’s weight-loss journeys are treated like public property – and still, consent and context matter. Oshry has already said she used Ozempic in 2023; policing how frankly she discloses it isn’t noble, it’s nosy.
From a casting perspective, this is a headache before taglines roll. Yes, messy backstory drives viewership. But recruiting someone now tied to a breadcrumb trail of body digs is like hiring a sommelier who keeps spitting in the decanter: you’ll get drama, but it sours the whole bottle.
Also, for fans 40+ who watched the franchise grow up with them: the culture has shifted. Body talk used to pass as “just Housewives being Housewives.” Today, it reads meaner and lazier – the reality-TV equivalent of rerunning a joke that already got booed.

Backstory (For the Casual Reader)
Claudia Oshry, 31, built a massive audience as Girl With No Job and welcomed her first child, Reuben, last May, sharing updates with fans. She’s been open about using a GLP-1 medication, saying in August 2023 that she had used Ozempic. Hailey Glassman works in public relations and previously made headlines years ago for dating Jon Gosselin, the reality dad from Jon & Kate Plus 8. RHONY – one of TV’s most durable reality franchises – has been mixing legacy personalities with new faces to refresh the format, and the incoming season aims to keep that balancing act going.
Where’s the line for you – clever shade that makes great TV, or body talk that should be benched for good?
