Jen Shah’s Top 10 Most Outrageous Moments

Jen Shah was only on RHOSLC for two seasons, but she somehow managed to pack approximately 40 Housewives lifetimes of chaos into them.

From throwing food to screaming on buses to fleeing from the feds, these are her most outrageous moments.

1. The Sprinter Van Arrest

Nothing is ever going to top this. Jen was getting ready to leave for the cast trip when she suddenly got a phone call, removed her microphone, and bolted from the van. Minutes later, police arrived looking for her. The women had no idea what was happening, and neither did we. It remains one of the most insane openings to a Housewives episode ever.

2. “I’m Innocent!”

After her arrest, Jen spent the season insisting that she was innocent and maintaining that she had been set up. Watching her continue to insist that she had done nothing wrong while the entire season revolved around her legal situation created some truly surreal television.

3. The “Shah Squad”

Jen didn’t just have friends. She had an entire entourage. Assistants, glam, security, employees — there was seemingly always somebody hovering around Jen and ready to jump into whatever crisis she had created that day.

4. Throwing the Glasses at Whitney

Jen’s relationship with Whitney went from friendship to complete chaos, culminating in Jen throwing a glass during one of their arguments. With Jen, even a disagreement about dinner could turn into a potential crime scene.

5. The $70,000 Tennis Bracelet

Jen showing off an insanely expensive tennis bracelet while the women were out ice fishing was peak Jen Shah. Nothing says practical outdoor recreation like several thousand dollars of diamonds bouncing around in the freezing Utah wilderness. The moment has since become one of the fan-favorite examples of Jen’s spectacularly excessive spending.

6. The Beauty Lab Meltdown

Jen turning up at Heather’s Beauty Lab and Laser already furious and then launching into one of her trademark screaming fits was classic Season 1 Jen. A trip to the beauty salon somehow became a full-scale Housewives emergency.

7. The Coach Shah Phone Call

Jen’s relationship with her husband, Sharrieff, produced some of the most bizarrely emotional moments of the show. Whenever Coach Shah called, Jen could go from screaming at everyone in the room to suddenly crying, apologizing and insisting that she loved her husband.

8. The “I Will Drag You” Bus Fight

Jen and Lisa Barlow’s second-season bus fights were absolutely feral. Their argument became so heated that a producer had to physically intervene and separate Jen from Lisa.

9. Throwing the Veggie Tray

Only Jen Shah could turn a perfectly innocent vegetable platter into a weapon. During one of her many explosive arguments, she launched food across the room, adding another entry to the growing list of objects Jen was willing to throw when she got angry. Fans still remember her throwing-everything era fondly.

10. The “I’ll Put Your Body in the Lake” Threat

Jen casually telling Whitney that she would dump her body in the lake was one of those moments where you had to stop and wonder how the conversation had possibly gotten there. It was delivered with the kind of terrifying casualness that made Jen Shah feel less like a Housewife and more like a character in a mob movie.
