The Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills kicked off season eight on Tuesday with a champagne soaked trip to Las Vegas.

Teddi Mellencamp Arroyave, the 36-year-old daughter of John Cougar Mellencamp, made her debut as a regular cast member.

She was thrown into the fray with original RHOB cast member Camille Grammer who was back as a guest on the series.

The cast of last season was back with the exception of Eileen Davidson who did not return for season eight of the Bravo show.

It was the third straight season in which all the RHOBH stars are married.

Everyone was apprehensive about reuniting with Lisa Rinna, who had caused a stir last year by suggesting Dorit Kemsley was a cocaine user and calling Kyle Richards 'an enabler' to her sister's alcoholism.

'It's a recipe for disaster,' noted 57-year-old Lisa Vanderpump as the party got underway.

Birthday girl: Lisa Rinna arrived separately for the birthday bash in Las Vegas

Disaster recipe: Lisa Vanderpump warned Kyle Richards that hosting a birthday party for three women who don't particularly care for each other was a 'recipe for disaster'

The season premiere titled Stronger Than Ever opened with Erika Girardi creating a new ballad called Missing Piece.

'I'm going to maximize my motherf***ing time,' announced the 46-year-old pop singer, whose husband is top trial lawyer Thomas Girardi, 78.

'I'm here today because of the support of my husband,' she admitted.

Time maximizer: Erika Girardi noted that she was going to maximize her time

The diamond-clad singer later showed Kyle her 'office' that included some super bright vanity lights and a podium with multiple mirrors for dressing.

'If you look good in here you look good anywhere,' said Erika proudly.

She discussed her time on Dancing With The Stars.

Cool office: Kyle visited Erika at her office that seemed more like a giant closet

Lit up: Kyle was lit up by bright lights while sitting in front of a mirror at Erika's office

Party plans: Erika listened as Kyle told her about the planned trip to Sin City

'I was like a fish out of water,' she admitted.

Meanwhile, Lisa Rinna ordered a vitamin drip for herself and her daughters who are both budding models.

'I'm a momager…I hustle, I work hard…I am in charge of everything,' she said, noting that her husband has been less than helpful.

Budding models: Lisa Rinna was acting as momager for her model daughters Delilah and Amelia

Vitamin drip: A home visit was made to provide a vitamin drip to Lisa and her daughters

Teen model: Amelia received the vitamin drip therapy

'God love Harry Hamlin, but he's not doing s***,' she huffed.

They also took cortisone shots for pimples as Lisa claimed that she wanted to keep her daughters grounded.

Kyle then met with Lisa Vanderpump to chat about Kyle's new show American Woman, which is inspired by her life with her mother in the 1970s.

Cortisone shots: Delilah also got a cortisone shot to treat a pimple

Staying grounded: Lisa talked about making sure to keep her daughters grounded

'It's definitely real life, with fiction,' said Kyle vaguely.

Dorit was hanging out with her son Jagger, who had just started talking properly.

They met Teddi and her husband Edwin, plus their kids, for some musical playtime.

Dorit asked Jagger if he was excited to make some new friends and he sweetly replied, 'I don’t know which friends and their names.'

Teddi grew up in Hilton Head, South Carolina where 'you can't get a house for less than a million dollars'.

'But I knew the value of a dollar, always,' she added.

The horse rider admitted that she met her husband on a 'one night stand'.

Horse rider: Teddi shared that she loves horses and used to be a professional equestrian

'I thought his name was Edward, his name is Edwin,' she laughed.

On her famous father, Teddi said was 'never handed anything on a silver platter'.

'I thought everybody's dad was on the radio,' she said, noting that as a kid she was more interested in My Little Pony than her father's music career.

Famous father: John Mellencamp was shown in a photo

Family fun: Teddi was having fun with her daughter Slate and son Cruz

Dorit and her husband Paul 'PK' Kemsley chatted about the pending Vegas trip.

'Last time I saw Erika she was really horrible to me, I've listened to Rinna call me a pervert, staring up their dresses all the time,' grumbled PK, who is Boy George's manager.

'Rinna was just a joke, horrible,' he added.

At the airport Dorit dropped a bombshell about Teddi.
