Tom Sandoval made serious waves in 2023 when it came out that the Vanderpump Rules star had been unfaithful to his partner of many years, fellow Bravolebrity Ariana Madix, with their Vanderpump Rules castmate Raquel Leviss.
The subsequent fallout from the affair, dubbed “Scandoval” by fans, resulted in a redemption tour by Sandoval, a departure from the reality show by Leviss, and new career opportunities for Madix, including a hosting gig on Love Island USA and a Broadway run in Chicago.

While none of them are expected to return for the show’s 12th season, they’re all still in the public eye, and fans are divided by Sandoval’s latest venture.
The reality star took to TikTok on March 23 to tell fans that he’s available to record personalized videos through Cameo. The site allows fans to hire celebrities and internet personalities to record a video message for a set fee. Users are asked to provide facts about the recipient so that the person recording the video can be specific in their message.

Sandoval rattled off a long list of events for which he could record cameos, from birthdays to bachelor or bachelorette parties, weddings, engagements, or if “you need a pick-me-up.”
He then explained that on previous cameos he has played trumpet, sharing with a laugh that he’s “played some guitar, I’ve been asked to sing some lullabies,” and urging fans to book through the website as opposed to the app because “it is so much cheaper to book online.”

Fans quickly took to the comments to share their opinion, with many teasing the Bravo alum, writing, “This is like a parody of Tom Sandoval,” and stating that he “still gives me a giant ICK.”
Other fans loved the idea, commenting, “Well, I have to honestly say it’s very refreshing to see you smile I think the world has been so cruel for too long and it’s good that you’re finally getting back to being the Tom we love.”
“I think you’re pretty awesome! Yes you’ve made some mistakes but you’ve kept your sense of humor and I support grabbing every opportunity that is out there! Good for you!” wrote another.
Others were more neutral on the topic, writing, “He is unapologetically himself,” and “One thing I can say is Tom is funny.”
One fan said it succinctly, noting that “the hustle is real.”
