All the Tea You Missed at DIRECTV, PEOPLE and EW’s Starry Reality TV Party ArticlePure

The stars are out in Hollywood!

From the Real Housewives ladies to Dancing With the Stars’ finest cha cha-ers, dozens of reality stars gathered under one roof at the DIRECTV Gets Real party hosted by DIRECTV, People and Entertainment Weekly on Thursday, Sept. 26.

Ariana Madix has proven her hosting chops on the hit Peacock series Love Island USA — and at the Aster Hotel in Hollywood, she assumed emcee duties once more, kicking the night off with a special toast.

“As the host of Love Island USA, I want everyone to know that there will be a recoupling,” she joked to the crowd as they gathered on the rooftop lounge.

Madix was a social butterfly throughout the night, chatting all things Dancing With the Stars with current contestant (and recent Bachelorette) Jenn Tran. Madix finished in third place last season, and was also seen catching up with The Brady Bunch star Barry Williams, who competed on the same DWTS season as Madix.

Williams proved he’s still got moves as he gave Kathy Hilton a spin and a dip on the dance floor, which played throwback tunes like “Rock Your Body” by Justin Timberlake and “Shape of You” by Ed Sheeran. RuPaul’s Drag Race alums Salina EsTitties and Kerri Colby also tore up the dance floor.

Meanwhile, over at the bar, Bachelor Nation held court as they sipped the event’s signature cocktails (aptly named Drama on the Rocks, The Final Rosé, Sip Happens and Plot Twist Punch). Justin Glaze, Susie Evans, Demi Burnett, Joey Graziadei, Tran, Jonathon Johnson, Dylan Barbour and Hannah Godwin and Love Is Blind’s Marshall Glaze were all seen hanging out together by the bar as the night went on.

Though Glaze and Evans told PEOPLE in August they’d broken up, the pair arrived together, as some of the final arrivals on the blue carpet. Graziadei eventually made his exit with current Dancing With the Stars partner Jenna Johnson by his side.

Elsewhere, Barbour and Godwin greeted The Valley star Brock Davies with hugs, and asked where his wife Scheana Shay was. Their Valley costar Kristen Doute was also photographed showing off her new engagement ring from fiancé Luke Broderick while posing with Broderick, Davies and Vanderpump Rules star Tom Schwartz.

Over in the photo booth, Real Housewives stars (both current and former!) Meredith Marks, Marlo Hampton and Karen Huger struck a pose as they sat together for pics — and Marks later had the velvet blue couch to herself for a sexy solo shoot.
