Beverly Hills may be filled with the sound of chirping, but not the type one would first think of!
Former "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" star Teddi Mellencamp and "Real Housewives of Orange County" veteran Vicki Gunvalson had some words over at 'the bird app' last night, and tensions quickly got ugly.
The Twitter exchange was inspired by Gunvalson's, who appears as a cast member on the second season of "The Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip," response to a question that had been asked of Tamra Judge while the two ladies were being interviewed by Entertainment Tonight.
What Went Down?

Gunvalson, 60, did not mince words when she expressed her opinion of Mellencamp, who co-hosts a podcast with Judge.
The "Two T's In A Pod" podcast was also brought up during Judge and Gunvalson's interview, and it turns out Gulvalson is not a fan of the show either!
According to Us Weekly, Gunvalson said, "Something about her bugs me," in reference to Mellencamp. Gunvalson also used some pretty colorful word play when referencing the podcast, calling the show "Two T*its" and "Two Ps In A Todd."
Taking The Drama To Twitter: What Happened Next?
Any other Bravo fans watching I Love That for You on Showtime with Vanessa Bayer? It’s about a girl who scams her way into a job by lying about having cancer. Just feels so familiar.

Mellencamp, for her part, was not about to let Gunvalson's criticism go on without a response.
Mellencamp found a way to sneak in a reference to Vanessa Bayer's latest TV show "I Love That For You," and tie it to an oft-discussed component of Gunvalson's career.
"Any other Bravo fans watching 'I Love That For You' on Showtime with Vanessa Bayer?" Mellencamp asked in a tweet. "It's about a girl who scams her way into a job by lying about having cancer," she continued before adding, "Just feels so familiar."
The familiar common aspect Mellencamp was referring to pertains to Gunvalson's ex Brooks Ayers. 'Housewives' fans may remember when Ayers decided to alter official medical documents pertaining to his cancer diagnosis, in 2014.
Ayers attempted to clear Gunvalson's involvement in his actions by telling Entertainment Tonight, "Vicki was not 'in on any cancer scam or created storyline.' There is no scam."
Gunvalson defended herself in Mellencamp's thread, responding, "Wow... low blow! You know nothing about what transpired with my [e]x. That's why you only lasted 3 years... ME... 14!"
Mellencamp then unleashed a response for the ages. She asked Gunvalson, "Well if we're talking numbers, could you let us all know where you were on January 6th?"
Mellencamp was referring to the attack on the United States Capital building that took place on January 6th of last year.

Mellencamp's mic drop moment may have been the last word in the pair's Twitter fight, but Gunvalson is still dealing with her fair share of drama involving her fellow 'Housewives.'
She is also currently at odds with her "Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip" co-star Dorinda Medley.
This time, Gunvalson took to Instagram to call out Medley for comments she had made wherein she had alleged Gunvalson had sent her 100 text messages and had also left "a very long voicemail" for Medley, according to Page Six.
Gunvalson called Medley "an absolute liar" in her Instagram comment, and also denied Medley's allegations about the high number of text messages.
"I don't have time to text anyone 100 texts," Gunvalson said.
Viewers will likely get more insight into Gunvalson and Medley's extremely far-gone relationship on "Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip," which is now streaming on Peacock.
