The name on everybody's lips is Ariana Madix after she made her Broadway debut as Roxie Hart in "Chicago" Monday night.
Madix traded in the drama of "Vanderpump Rules" and the "Dancing with the Stars" ballroom to step into the spotlight onstage in the iconic musical, in which she will star through March 24.
"When the reality is even better than the dream," she captioned an Instagram post ahead of her big debut, adding that "this journey has been nothing short of amazing."
