You may know Countess Luann de Lesseps from The Real Housewives of New York, but did you know she smokes weed? The cabaret star and singer was known for her polished, classy vibe in the early seasons of the hit Bravo show, but she’s showing followers a different side of herself. Lesseps recently released a witty reel promoting PAX’s new dry herb cannabis vape called FLOW.

The video starts with Luann holding flowers, promising viewers the secret to a perfect arrangement—if you hadn’t read the caption yet, you’d probably think she was talking about crafting an actual bouquet. Then, she pivots, wittily mentioning grinding the flowers and packing them “medium tight” (not too tight, not too loose).
“Next, you wanna smell the aromas and really take in those terpenes,” Luann says, confirming that the flowers she’s referring to are the ones that grow from cannabis plants.
She finishes by showing off her FLOW vaporizer—she heats up the weed that’s implied to be in the vape, takes a hit, and leaves her audience with a simple message.
“Now that’s how you enjoy your flowers.”
PAX launched its FLOW vape this summer. It comes with a hybrid heating system that uses both conduction and convection technologies to evenly heat the flower, creating a vapor of sorts. There are five heat settings, and each one allows for distinct tastes. It’s small and sleek, making it a great option for more private smokers.
The Countess is known for many things, but judging by the comments on the reel, many RHONY fans were delightfully surprised to find out that she uses cannabis.
“With Luann, we wanted to celebrate cannabis in a way that’s elegant, fun, and a little unexpected,” said Justin Tacy, VP of Marketing at PAX.
