The Traitors season 4 star Lisa Rinna is sharing her hot takes on what went down in the castle as the competition reaches a boiling point.
“I’m gonna start with this, Rob R. He’s super smart,” the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alums, 62, said in a TikTok video shared ahead of the Thursday, January 22, episode of the Peacock reality show. “What I’m realizing is, he’s so good looking that people are too afraid to look at him for very long. They just can’t.”
Lisa said the former Love Island USA star’s good looks are “such a bonus,” but hotness isn’t the only thing working in his favor.
“I mean, he’s totally smart. He’s playing the game, like, unbelievably, right?” Lisa continued. “But he’s so good looking that nobody suspects him because they can’t clock him for very long because it’s too uncomfortable because he’s so gorgeous.”
Lisa and Rob, 27, were chosen as Traitors at the beginning of the season alongside The Real Housewives of Potomac‘s Candiace Dillard Bassett. The trio were able to stay under the radar early on, but Faithfuls Colton Underwood and Monet X Change later began to question whether Lisa could be trusted.
Monet, 35, was murdered before Thursday’s episode, but Colton, 33, didn’t let up on his suspicions. The former Bachelor confronted Lisa — both in private and at the roundtable — leaving Rob torn over where his loyalty lies.

According to Colton, Lisa voting to banish The Real Housewives of Atlanta‘s Porsha Williams in episode 2 didn’t sit right, because he expected the Housewives in the castle to stick together. Lisa defended her decision in her TikTok on Thursday.
“Porsha did herself in. I’m sorry, but she did,” she said, claiming that the evidence brought against Porsha, 44, was “too good to pass up” when the Secret Traitor was still at large. “That’s why I voted for Porsha. And truth be told, I am not a Housewife anymore. … I’m a Traitor. I am there to be deceitful and murderous. I am not there to kumbaya with Housewives.”
Lisa reminded fans that decisions made during the competition aren’t “personal,” adding, “I just thought she was an OG of the Housewives. She’s Porsha. I didn’t know she was dumb. That’s what everyone’s saying. ‘Oh, you should know that, Porsha’s just dumb.’ Well, I’m sorry. That doesn’t work for me.”
The Porsha vote was brought up yet again during the roundtable on Thursday as Colton doubled down on his suspicions of Lisa. Colton also argued Lisa’s low-key demeanor in the castle was a red flag.
“I’m not going to dance on the table,” she replied. “I’m not going to break a wine glass, I don’t have to.”
While recapping the competition for her TikTok followers, Lisa called Colton “a big fat problem” for her and the other Traitors.
“I wonder if somebody’s feeding this information to him, then he runs with it,” she theorized on Thursday. “I’m actually wondering if Rob is feeding this information to him. … It’s so much harder to play this game than it looks on TV.”
Rob committed the first Traitor-on-Traitor crime of the season, voting to banish Lisa in order to publicly protect his alliance with Colton. Lisa was ultimately safe, with Ron Funches being sent home.
After the roundtable, Lisa reminded Colton that she’s “so much more” than a Bravolebrity. “I’ve been in this business for 36 years. … Don’t expect me to be a Housewife, because I am Lisa f***ing Rinna,” she announced. “I was Lisa f***ing Rinna before Housewives and I am Lisa f***ing Rinna after.”
New episodes of The Traitors air on Peacock Thursdays at 9 p.m. ET.
