The 2010 hit Money Can't Buy You Class by The Real Housewives of New York City's Countess Luann de Lesseps inspired a 2023 remake of the song for [Uber Eats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/uber-showcats) titled Money Can Buy You Class. This ad for the holiday season reminds shoppers that all of their last-minute needs are covered, and it helps people avoid faux pas like showing up to a gathering empty-handed. Candles, champagne, chocolates or even a gift card promise to be crowd-pleasing gifts to make any party-goer feel classier without having to invest more time or effort in securing the perfect holiday present.

In the ad, RHoNY fans will spot Sonja Morgan, as well as a Jovani jumpsuit that inspired a storyline of its own. With Money Can Buy You Class, Uber Eats taps into a fanbase that loves to host Real Housewives watch parties, share refreshments with friends and relish life's luxuries like on-demand deliveries.
