Career

Singer studied marketing at the Fashion Institute of Technology, where she was the first female graduate of the four-year honor program.[1] After graduating college, Singer took part in a traineeship program at Macy's and later became a buyer for the department store chain.[2][3] She also worked in sales management for the fashion companies Calvin Klein and French Connection.[3] In 1986, Singer started her own wholesale clothing business RMS Fashions, Inc.

Singer joined as a cast member on the first season of Bravo's television show The Real Housewives of New York City. She remained on the show for thirteen seasons.[6][7] Singer's thirteenth season, which aired in 2021, drew the lowest ratings in the show's history.[7] In 2022, Bravo announced it would reboot The Real Housewives of New York City with an entirely new cast, while simultaneously greenlighting a separate series featuring some of the original cast members.[8] Behind-the-scenes tensions during and after the thirteenth season, including allegations of racially insensitive comments by cast members during filming, contributed to the network's decision to move forward without the original lineup.[9]
