First 0:00:39.720 --> 0:00:42.720 Things First. Obviously, Brooke and Paula in Melbourne. Billy and 0:00:42.760 --> 0:00:46.239 I are in Sydney. But this show that you're currently 0:00:46.280 --> 0:00:49.280 on is all about Bondai. Obviously it's a take on 0:00:50.040 --> 0:00:52.240 you know, Made in Chelsea, which is from the UK. 0:00:52.680 --> 0:00:54.200 How did you seen that show before, Billy? 0:00:54.680 --> 0:00:57.560 Yes, I had so. I actually went to UNI in 0:00:57.600 --> 0:01:02.080 London and as I was living there, season one came out, okay, 0:01:02.120 --> 0:01:04.600 and I was in love. I'm a reality television conners, 0:01:04.560 --> 0:01:07.480 so I love it all. So yes, big Chelsea fan 0:01:07.600 --> 0:01:08.960 from from way back. 0:01:09.120 --> 0:01:09.839 What about you, Paul? 0:01:10.080 --> 0:01:13.399 I actually hadn't seen it, so I remember when they 0:01:13.440 --> 0:01:18.000 reached out. I was really excited, but I didn't actually. 0:01:18.040 --> 0:01:21.160 Watch the show watch it. 0:01:21.720 --> 0:01:24.959 I knew about the show that I just never seen it. Yeah, 0:01:25.120 --> 0:01:27.240 and then as we started filming, I was like, I 0:01:27.240 --> 0:01:32.280 think I could actually watch this show. See what I was. 0:01:32.200 --> 0:01:33.160 Like walking into it. 0:01:33.680 --> 0:01:38.080 But yeah, I never watched Maiden Chelsea Sydney though with Isabella. 0:01:38.160 --> 0:01:38.720 Did you, Paul? 0:01:39.280 --> 0:01:40.920 No? I didn't. Actually I didn't even know they were 0:01:40.959 --> 0:01:44.160 in Sydney. But then so they did like a trip. 0:01:44.480 --> 0:01:47.720 Yeah, it was like offshore season, so I should probably 0:01:47.760 --> 0:01:48.400 go back and watch it. 0:01:48.720 --> 0:01:51.480 So like Kim and Courtney take Mimi, Yes exactly that. 0:01:52.400 --> 0:01:55.680 I've heard some controversial things right, Oh yeah, well I reckon, 0:01:55.680 --> 0:01:58.280 we just dive straight into it. So what I heard 0:01:58.400 --> 0:02:00.600 is the show made in bond I was even filmed 0:02:00.640 --> 0:02:01.160 in Bondai. 0:02:01.480 --> 0:02:05.640 So this is my least favorite criticism. It was I 0:02:05.680 --> 0:02:08.960 swear there was an article in the Daily Telegraph called 0:02:09.000 --> 0:02:12.960 Made in Brightonlesands, like it's funny. I love that, but 0:02:13.000 --> 0:02:16.079 we didn't. I never personally ever filmed in Brighton less sense. 0:02:16.120 --> 0:02:17.160 I'm sure it's lovely that Have. 0:02:17.120 --> 0:02:19.800 You ever been to Brighton? No, it's a very different 0:02:19.800 --> 0:02:21.440 place to BONDI let me tell you, if you go 0:02:21.520 --> 0:02:23.680 there after dark, it's even more different than Bondai. 0:02:23.760 --> 0:02:25.760 I've driven through it to go to Cogra because I 0:02:25.760 --> 0:02:28.680 had a client in Kogra. Yeah, and it looks lovely. 0:02:28.720 --> 0:02:31.560 That's where all the jet skis are. Yes, stunning. 0:02:31.880 --> 0:02:34.359 Paul, did you film in bright Less Ends or no? 0:02:34.680 --> 0:02:37.400 Everyone keeps asking us, you guys didn't film in Bondai. 0:02:37.480 --> 0:02:40.000 It's not in Bondai. But I think what people forget 0:02:40.200 --> 0:02:43.800 is it's a show not just about Bondai. Like, yeah, 0:02:43.840 --> 0:02:47.480 they use Bondai because it's such an iconic and like worldwide, 0:02:47.600 --> 0:02:49.880 like you know Bondai like you do know Sydney, But 0:02:50.040 --> 0:02:52.200 Bondai is like it's like Chelsea, Like it's not made 0:02:52.240 --> 0:02:56.560 in the UK in Chelsea. So I think everyone that's like, 0:02:56.560 --> 0:02:58.480 oh my god, you guys aren't even that they aren't 0:02:58.480 --> 0:03:02.320 allowed to film in Bondai. The first scene for me 0:03:02.480 --> 0:03:05.480 with Emma where we're out for drinks and I say 0:03:05.520 --> 0:03:09.279 I'm ready to find a husband that was in Bonda. 0:03:09.320 --> 0:03:12.840 Yeah, because it's like pretty much like selling a location, right, 0:03:12.840 --> 0:03:15.720 because like Maid in Chelsea is about like selling a 0:03:15.800 --> 0:03:18.720 lifestyle in Chelsea, and then I guess like Maid in 0:03:18.720 --> 0:03:20.040 Bondeau is about sort of like. 0:03:20.360 --> 0:03:21.320 Not selling a lifestyle. 0:03:21.360 --> 0:03:23.720 But you know what I mean, Like people in London 0:03:23.760 --> 0:03:25.720 will probably watch the Maid in Bondai one and be like, 0:03:25.720 --> 0:03:26.320 funk I want to. 0:03:26.320 --> 0:03:29.280 Live like on the beaches, Like this looks stunning. 0:03:29.040 --> 0:03:32.680 It's shot so beautifully and we both live in Sydney 0:03:32.680 --> 0:03:34.480 and like the way they've showed it, You're like, we 0:03:34.560 --> 0:03:35.440 live here, like this. 0:03:35.400 --> 0:03:37.960 Is so so sick. Yeah, yeah, And I think Maid 0:03:38.040 --> 0:03:40.320 in Bondau was like it was named for a British 0:03:40.320 --> 0:03:44.040 audience as well, like named in Vocalist doesn't doesn't hit 0:03:44.120 --> 0:03:46.680 with the international audience absolutely. Well. 0:03:46.720 --> 0:03:49.320 What I when I first heard the name Maide in Bondai, 0:03:49.440 --> 0:03:52.200 I thought it was about people who grew up and 0:03:52.240 --> 0:03:54.800 were born on the Eastern suburbs and maybe grew up 0:03:54.800 --> 0:03:57.240 in Bondai because you know of the title of the show, 0:03:57.560 --> 0:03:59.480 but did you grow up in bonde I w don't know. 0:04:00.200 --> 0:04:02.400 Come from? What is your background and why are you 0:04:02.520 --> 0:04:03.560 so connected to Bondai? 0:04:03.960 --> 0:04:06.839 I've been dragged for this since day one because I'm 0:04:06.880 --> 0:04:10.320 in Perth, way away from Bondi. Yeah, and then I 0:04:10.360 --> 0:04:13.000 did union in London, lived in Melbourne for five years. 0:04:13.040 --> 0:04:17.240 Now I'm in Sydney. But I feel like that is Bondai. 0:04:17.440 --> 0:04:19.720 Like no one in Bondai is from Bondai. It's such 0:04:19.760 --> 0:04:22.839 a transient place. It's like backpackers, people that have come 0:04:22.839 --> 0:04:25.520 from all over. So that kind of describes Bondai to me. 0:04:25.880 --> 0:04:30.040 But absolutely not. I was not made, conceived in Bondai, 0:04:30.640 --> 0:04:32.560 made in Perth. 0:04:32.800 --> 0:04:33.240 What about you? 0:04:33.880 --> 0:04:36.960 I was born in Melbourne. I only recently moved to 0:04:37.360 --> 0:04:41.840 Sydney in March actually, so I'm a new Sydney But 0:04:42.400 --> 0:04:44.800 she's fresh. She's fresh. 0:04:45.040 --> 0:04:48.560 But you're like, from what I know of your like 0:04:48.680 --> 0:04:50.839 lifestyle and from all your work, is that you're in 0:04:50.880 --> 0:04:52.119 Sydney like every week. 0:04:52.360 --> 0:04:55.520 Well, like I remember when we would work together, just 0:04:55.680 --> 0:04:57.640 being Melbourne, I'd always be back and forth. 0:04:57.760 --> 0:04:58.839 Yeah, all the time. 0:04:58.880 --> 0:05:01.240 The move was always there, and then it just kind 0:05:01.240 --> 0:05:05.560 of all fell into place and all just felt right. 0:05:06.279 --> 0:05:08.120 Now I'm the Sydney boy. 0:05:08.640 --> 0:05:10.359 What are you enjoying your time in Sydney? 0:05:10.440 --> 0:05:12.760 I am, I love it. I'm in Surrey Hills and 0:05:12.880 --> 0:05:13.720 not Bonda either. 0:05:14.920 --> 0:05:15.919 Made in Surrey Hills. 0:05:15.920 --> 0:05:20.960 Doesn't hear Flurry Hills, that's the knockoff. 0:05:21.800 --> 0:05:25.120 Well, I want to ask how it all came about. Look, 0:05:25.160 --> 0:05:27.080 there are so many different people on this show. I'm 0:05:27.080 --> 0:05:31.280 not going to say it is the show that cast diversely, 0:05:31.640 --> 0:05:33.080 but what I will say is that there's a lot 0:05:33.080 --> 0:05:35.040 of different people on this show. How did you guys 0:05:35.480 --> 0:05:37.200 get cast? And did you know each other before? 0:05:38.040 --> 0:05:42.520 So they approached me last year to kind of there 0:05:42.520 --> 0:05:44.960 was this new show that was coming around and they 0:05:45.920 --> 0:05:49.120 really wanted me to be on it. So we started 0:05:49.160 --> 0:05:52.640 the process and then I got cast. Me and Emma 0:05:52.720 --> 0:05:57.159 Pills who's on the show. We were friends before the show, 0:05:57.440 --> 0:06:00.640 and they cast us both. The way the kind of 0:06:01.200 --> 0:06:03.360 made in Bondi and Made in Chelsea works is there's 0:06:03.360 --> 0:06:06.640 all different friendship groups and how it starts and then 0:06:06.680 --> 0:06:10.000 we all kind of meet each other and then become 0:06:10.080 --> 0:06:15.400 one big group. I'd got cast and then they I 0:06:15.480 --> 0:06:21.560 really wanted another friend kind of to be to come 0:06:21.600 --> 0:06:23.640 along with that journey with me, and I didn't want 0:06:23.680 --> 0:06:26.120 to be the only kind of. 0:06:27.600 --> 0:06:30.160 Person. Yeah he needed homosexual energy. 0:06:30.120 --> 0:06:33.120 Yeah, I certainly bring that. 0:06:33.839 --> 0:06:36.560 I think as well, Like there's so many shows that 0:06:36.800 --> 0:06:39.560 just had that one queer, all that one gay guy, 0:06:39.720 --> 0:06:43.240 that one lesbian, and it's just like it's not I 0:06:43.240 --> 0:06:44.599 didn't want that for this show. 0:06:44.720 --> 0:06:48.640 Yeah, and you have to really like amplify yourself as well, 0:06:48.680 --> 0:06:50.720 like when you are that one person who is just 0:06:50.760 --> 0:06:52.000 so frustrating. 0:06:51.600 --> 0:06:54.880 Sydney, Like it's so diverse and there's so much going 0:06:54.920 --> 0:06:58.719 on in Sydney. So yeah, I put Billy forward and 0:06:58.760 --> 0:07:02.880 then Billy was calm Billy Star was born. 0:07:04.000 --> 0:07:06.200 Well, man, let me just say before the show, you're 0:07:06.240 --> 0:07:09.600 absolutely a star because obviously you have your own PR company, 0:07:10.080 --> 0:07:12.600 you're you know, you've worked with really high profile people. 0:07:13.200 --> 0:07:14.680 What was it about the show that you wanted to 0:07:14.720 --> 0:07:16.000 be why you wanted to be part of it? 0:07:16.280 --> 0:07:19.760 So, as Paul said, I wasn't an original cast member. 0:07:19.760 --> 0:07:22.840 I came months later as a friend of like I 0:07:22.920 --> 0:07:27.880 was Kathi Hilton. And the way that it like it 0:07:27.960 --> 0:07:31.800 started was very much my work was involved. So that's 0:07:31.840 --> 0:07:34.120 how Paul and I know each other. We work together 0:07:34.160 --> 0:07:36.840 a lot. So it was for me it was a 0:07:36.840 --> 0:07:40.560 really good opportunity to talk about my business on an 0:07:40.600 --> 0:07:45.720 international platform. My business is only two years old, so 0:07:45.720 --> 0:07:47.880 I was like, this is great. Plus I love reality 0:07:47.920 --> 0:07:51.800 TV and the idea of going to brunch with a camera. 0:07:51.920 --> 0:07:55.080 I was like, I hate that. So there was some 0:07:55.160 --> 0:07:57.600 work stuff involved. I thought it would be great to 0:07:57.600 --> 0:08:02.680 push my work, but also just fabulousness. Yeah, I love that, and. 0:08:02.600 --> 0:08:05.040 I think we both said I think it was halfway 0:08:05.080 --> 0:08:07.600 through filming, were like, this is so crazy that this 0:08:07.880 --> 0:08:11.680 is what we're doing right now. Even if the show 0:08:12.320 --> 0:08:15.560 didn't go to air or didn't have any success, like 0:08:15.600 --> 0:08:17.160 for us, it was just like, this is such a 0:08:17.160 --> 0:08:18.000 great experience. 0:08:18.320 --> 0:08:20.720 Yeah, it was fun, and there was some really hard 0:08:20.720 --> 0:08:23.560 bits too where we were both like winging. I'm like, 0:08:23.600 --> 0:08:25.840 oh no, I need to be grateful because this is 0:08:25.840 --> 0:08:29.000 so amazing. But it was hard work, like both of 0:08:29.040 --> 0:08:31.840 us running out businesses as well as dedicating a full 0:08:31.920 --> 0:08:34.640 day to having coffee and talking. 0:08:35.200 --> 0:08:37.040 Yeah, what does the day filming look like? 0:08:37.559 --> 0:08:41.120 There were long days because obviously it's shot so beautiful, 0:08:41.200 --> 0:08:45.560 so everything's very considered, so yeah, very long hours. 0:08:46.520 --> 0:08:49.600 It's based on our lives, so like just say there's 0:08:49.640 --> 0:08:52.720 one week where Billy might be hosting his birthday for 0:08:52.880 --> 0:08:56.080 his business, then obviously the lead up to that he'll 0:08:56.080 --> 0:08:59.320 have a lot more filming days, and then if say 0:08:59.440 --> 0:09:02.840 there's a big drama scene or there's a champagne throne, 0:09:03.000 --> 0:09:04.600 then all of a sudden, it's like, all right, we 0:09:04.679 --> 0:09:07.600 need to have like a follow up because how made 0:09:07.600 --> 0:09:09.560 in Chelsea and made BONDI work. There's a lot of 0:09:09.600 --> 0:09:13.400 like breakfasts and dinners and catch ups where like you 0:09:13.559 --> 0:09:16.760 debrief about, oh my god, I can't believe that happens, 0:09:17.559 --> 0:09:19.960 and it kind of gives you depth into our characters 0:09:20.000 --> 0:09:20.439 as well. 0:09:20.960 --> 0:09:24.240 Was there any controversy with the cast, Like, were there 0:09:24.280 --> 0:09:28.520 any big fights that happened that were either exaggerated for 0:09:28.559 --> 0:09:31.400 the cameras or were they real? Like what's the gooss 0:09:31.480 --> 0:09:33.480 behind some of the tougher moments. 0:09:33.640 --> 0:09:36.760 There was definitely lots of controversial moments. I feel like 0:09:36.800 --> 0:09:41.400 I didn't get involved too much with that. Some people 0:09:41.880 --> 0:09:45.400 willing to do anything for five seconds more airtime, I mean, 0:09:45.520 --> 0:09:49.160 not so much. And Paul had his own little moment 0:09:49.200 --> 0:09:53.520 of controversy which we just saw in episode nine, yeah, 0:09:53.640 --> 0:09:54.680 which was fabulous. 0:09:57.559 --> 0:10:00.760 Kind of broke up with the Jacob who I was 0:10:00.800 --> 0:10:04.000 seeing on the show. Yeah, okay, yeah, so I broke 0:10:04.080 --> 0:10:05.679 up with him and he didn't take it too well. 0:10:05.720 --> 0:10:09.559 But as you can well as you know Brooke with editing, 0:10:09.800 --> 0:10:13.040 there's so much that actually happens in that scene and 0:10:13.080 --> 0:10:17.160 you get like three minutes of it. So yeah, it 0:10:17.240 --> 0:10:20.200 was that was probably like my most intense drama. 0:10:20.280 --> 0:10:22.800 But yeah, because you guys wouldn't have seen like the 0:10:23.400 --> 0:10:25.360 edits right, you would have filmed it and had a 0:10:25.440 --> 0:10:27.760 vision of like an idea of how what what what 0:10:27.840 --> 0:10:30.200 happened and how it went down, But then the show 0:10:30.240 --> 0:10:32.680 could be like, oh, yeah, no, that's not how it 0:10:32.720 --> 0:10:36.800 went down and changed so much, especially when it comes 0:10:36.840 --> 0:10:40.719 to like drama, because like people's reactions, I think that's 0:10:40.760 --> 0:10:43.120 where they get you is like oh, but they didn't 0:10:43.120 --> 0:10:45.520 actually react like that, Like yeah, they were reacting to 0:10:45.640 --> 0:10:48.800 that way to something else, but it wasn't exactly what 0:10:49.040 --> 0:10:50.920 I was, you know what I mean, Like they changed 0:10:51.160 --> 0:10:52.760 what things all the time. 0:10:53.000 --> 0:10:57.160 I remember after I told Jacob that he wasn't the 0:10:57.200 --> 0:11:00.760 one for me. He I remember I saw Billy and 0:11:00.920 --> 0:11:03.160 I was like, what the fuck was that? Like you 0:11:03.360 --> 0:11:07.079 just yeah, but onto bigger and better things. 0:11:07.120 --> 0:11:10.080 I'd say, yeah, I was there for that when that 0:11:10.240 --> 0:11:11.920 was filmed, and I was. 0:11:11.840 --> 0:11:14.960 To repeat anything, Yeah, can you break up with him? 0:11:15.000 --> 0:11:17.559 Three or four times? Just the extra shot. 0:11:18.160 --> 0:11:20.679 Sometimes we had to like condense things down, like if 0:11:20.720 --> 0:11:24.959 we waffled on, they're like, okay, that's way too somewhat yeah, 0:11:25.240 --> 0:11:27.360 but yeah they showed me up, well, Paul showed me 0:11:27.400 --> 0:11:29.880 away when they were breaking up, Like I was going 0:11:29.960 --> 0:11:35.160 to stand there and like I loved interfering with their relationship. 0:11:35.200 --> 0:11:37.320 And then I was trying to listen at the door 0:11:37.360 --> 0:11:39.640 when they were breaking up, but the producers chased me away, 0:11:39.679 --> 0:11:42.720 so I didn't get to watch alive until when it aired. 0:11:43.559 --> 0:11:45.000 You would have seen Brook break up with a lot 0:11:45.000 --> 0:11:47.920 of people on The Bachelorette, So did you have that 0:11:47.960 --> 0:11:49.720 in the back of your mind of like, Okay, well, 0:11:49.760 --> 0:11:52.920 I'm doing exactly what I've seen happen on reality TV before, 0:11:53.600 --> 0:11:56.000 and you understanding that there's going to be an edit, 0:11:56.040 --> 0:11:57.520 so you're choosing your words wisely. 0:11:57.720 --> 0:12:00.400 Well, for me, it was that I went on date 0:12:00.440 --> 0:12:04.160 with Jacob so like and for me, I was just like, 0:12:04.200 --> 0:12:07.040 this is going to be really seamless, like it is 0:12:07.040 --> 0:12:10.480 what it is. You not everything always works out, and 0:12:11.520 --> 0:12:15.080 it is that case of I've met someone else and 0:12:15.720 --> 0:12:19.840 he's my person and unfortunately doesn't brown. 0:12:20.040 --> 0:12:23.480 You don't get the last roads because I set Paul 0:12:23.520 --> 0:12:24.000 on Jacob. 0:12:24.000 --> 0:12:28.520 But can I see what's Jacob fail? 0:12:28.600 --> 0:12:31.520 I think you know him. He's got long hair, curly hair. 0:12:31.360 --> 0:12:32.040 And what does he do? 0:12:33.040 --> 0:12:35.880 He works with me. He works for Edwards and Coach, 0:12:35.880 --> 0:12:37.160 which is one of my clients. So him and I 0:12:37.240 --> 0:12:39.560 have worked together in an office like five years. So 0:12:39.640 --> 0:12:40.960 I was like, get married. 0:12:41.120 --> 0:12:43.040 Oh that's kind of cute. 0:12:43.040 --> 0:12:46.760 But also throughout the whole season, Billy and Emma medal 0:12:46.800 --> 0:12:51.480 in My Love Life, which is metal. Yeah, on the 0:12:51.520 --> 0:12:53.520 first episode, Billy's got me on the edge of the 0:12:53.559 --> 0:12:57.920 cliff screaming, oh yeah, demons out. But yeah, I know, 0:12:58.000 --> 0:13:00.959 I'm very happy in a relationship and ship now, so. 0:13:01.240 --> 0:13:03.120 Yeah, it works out everything. 0:13:03.200 --> 0:13:06.640 So Jacob was having drinks in Surrey Hill and Paul 0:13:06.720 --> 0:13:11.520 walked by holding hands with the new one. I'm like, 0:13:11.600 --> 0:13:13.840 that's so but that wasn't on the show. But I'm like, 0:13:14.320 --> 0:13:16.480 the real life drama's juicier than the show. 0:13:17.160 --> 0:13:19.640 That would have been such a good moment to capture. 0:13:19.679 --> 0:13:21.720 It was Paul was going to yell at me later. 0:13:25.120 --> 0:13:27.600 Well, Paul, I always thought that you were like more 0:13:27.679 --> 0:13:30.240 shy and more like of an introvert. But to go 0:13:30.280 --> 0:13:31.880 on a show like this, you have to be out 0:13:31.920 --> 0:13:34.480 there you have to be like a bit of an extrovert, 0:13:34.480 --> 0:13:36.280 don't you sow How has it been for you to. 0:13:36.240 --> 0:13:41.440 Be more ext For me, I've obviously been being a stylist. 0:13:41.520 --> 0:13:44.120 I've always been the guy behind the scenes, and then 0:13:44.559 --> 0:13:48.040 as of recent years, I think I've kind of that's 0:13:48.080 --> 0:13:50.520 kind of shifted a little bit too, and it's been styling. 0:13:50.559 --> 0:13:54.640 But then also Paul Visaci as me and like kind 0:13:54.640 --> 0:13:57.320 of getting in front of the camera has kind of 0:13:57.400 --> 0:14:00.000 kept growing. And then I remember when the show came about, 0:14:00.040 --> 0:14:01.600 I was like, you know what, this is something that 0:14:01.840 --> 0:14:05.079 I feel like is part of where I should be going, 0:14:05.160 --> 0:14:07.280 and like, I like that it was an experience that 0:14:07.360 --> 0:14:10.520 I just never thought i'd do. But yeah, and even 0:14:10.600 --> 0:14:13.880 after doing the show, I see it in myself. I'm like, wow, 0:14:13.960 --> 0:14:16.840 I'm so much more like now when it's a piece 0:14:16.840 --> 0:14:18.960 to camera. I just had the brown Low this whole 0:14:18.960 --> 0:14:22.760 week in Melbourne and doing interviews and stuff, You're just 0:14:22.800 --> 0:14:26.040 so much more like, okay, like let's practice, and like 0:14:26.760 --> 0:14:30.920 just getting comfortable with being like camera on camera, I think, 0:14:31.080 --> 0:14:33.360 and like not being so critical of being and like 0:14:33.640 --> 0:14:35.760 seeing watching back and being like, oh, I remember when 0:14:35.800 --> 0:14:38.040 me and Billy watched the first episode back, Billy was 0:14:38.080 --> 0:14:39.520 spiraling for about a week. 0:14:39.960 --> 0:14:40.400 Oh not. 0:14:42.040 --> 0:14:45.000 Just because his skin tone changed in every scene. 0:14:45.920 --> 0:14:46.440 You know what? 0:14:47.200 --> 0:14:50.160 And you know what me too. Yeah, when they grade 0:14:50.560 --> 0:14:53.400 and they grade for a certain skin type, gee, all 0:14:53.440 --> 0:14:56.240 the rest of using we. 0:14:56.280 --> 0:14:59.840 Go red, I go orange, I go brown, I go blue. 0:15:00.080 --> 0:15:01.800 And it was really warm and I felt like my 0:15:01.880 --> 0:15:05.400 teeth looked yellow. Oh, because the warmth was really borough. 0:15:06.320 --> 0:15:07.160 I was devastating. 0:15:07.200 --> 0:15:10.320 I think definitely using the same fake tan throughout the 0:15:10.360 --> 0:15:12.880 season is a tip. Hey, Billy, shut up. 0:15:13.680 --> 0:15:15.840 So when you were spiraling, and when you first it's 0:15:15.840 --> 0:15:17.960 probably your first time seeing yourself in that light, Like, 0:15:18.000 --> 0:15:20.800 what does that? What goes through your head? 0:15:20.400 --> 0:15:20.520 Oh? 0:15:20.840 --> 0:15:22.200 Are you like? Is that what I really looked like? 0:15:22.400 --> 0:15:22.640 Yes? 0:15:22.840 --> 0:15:24.760 Very much so, because, like you know, when you hear 0:15:24.800 --> 0:15:28.520 your voice back, yeah, yeah, like seeing your voice and 0:15:29.000 --> 0:15:31.640 hearing your voice and seeing your face talking was so 0:15:31.760 --> 0:15:35.320 confronting because I don't see that. I haven't done any 0:15:35.600 --> 0:15:37.200 camera work before, so I was like, is that what 0:15:37.240 --> 0:15:38.960 I look like? Surely that's not what I look like. 0:15:39.240 --> 0:15:41.280 But I had to keep reminding myself, like that's what 0:15:41.320 --> 0:15:44.440 people have seen me as all along. Yeah, I only 0:15:44.480 --> 0:15:46.800 see that The curated Instagram billy face. 0:15:46.880 --> 0:15:47.840 Yeah. Absolutely. 0:15:47.960 --> 0:15:50.000 I think it's a shock. No matter no matter how 0:15:50.040 --> 0:15:51.760 long you've been in the business, when you see yourself 0:15:51.760 --> 0:15:53.720 on TV, you still get that little moment of like, 0:15:53.920 --> 0:15:55.560 oh I thought I was so much prettier than I've 0:15:55.600 --> 0:15:56.320 been fash. 0:15:57.800 --> 0:16:01.400 Yes, yeah, and it's just seeing every angle of yourself 0:16:01.440 --> 0:16:02.680 as well. 0:16:02.000 --> 0:16:03.440 And it's not fun. 0:16:04.120 --> 0:16:04.360 Guys. 0:16:04.400 --> 0:16:06.560 I had my own fucking TV show. It's not fun. 0:16:06.880 --> 0:16:07.240 Yeah. 0:16:07.560 --> 0:16:09.560 So is it true that you're the only cast member 0:16:09.600 --> 0:16:10.240 that did an audition? 0:16:11.000 --> 0:16:14.280 I think so. Well. I don't know if they auditioned, 0:16:14.480 --> 0:16:17.560 but like it had like a casting process, but yeah, 0:16:17.600 --> 0:16:19.800 because I was a friend of and then came later. 0:16:20.040 --> 0:16:21.280 Mine was yea different. 0:16:21.400 --> 0:16:24.560 Yeah. I feel like most of the cast, well I 0:16:24.600 --> 0:16:27.320 can't speak for everyone, but I think a lot of 0:16:27.320 --> 0:16:30.160 the cast were kind of it was like, we really 0:16:30.200 --> 0:16:34.400 want that person. Then they would figure out like the ties, 0:16:34.760 --> 0:16:37.360 so like, yeah, everyone's always that it's all fake, like 0:16:38.120 --> 0:16:41.760 Lawson and Lawson was never with Molly. That was all produced, 0:16:41.760 --> 0:16:45.040 but they actually did sleep together and then that's how 0:16:45.080 --> 0:16:47.640 their characters kind of joined the show. It wasn't like 0:16:47.680 --> 0:16:51.160 the producer was like, loss in your cast, go sleep 0:16:51.200 --> 0:16:52.400 with Molly. 0:16:52.360 --> 0:16:53.640 Yeah, we'd actually. 0:16:53.360 --> 0:16:55.000 Want it on the show, and it was like even 0:16:55.040 --> 0:16:57.520 with me and Billy, it was like, all right, we 0:16:57.560 --> 0:17:00.320 need another quear.

Yeah, especially if you're not 0:17:34.320 --> 0:17:34.679 used to it. 0:17:34.920 --> 0:17:36.560 Do you ever have a producer in your ear going? 0:17:36.720 --> 0:17:38.560 I would like you to say this just to put 0:17:38.560 --> 0:17:41.320 some tension in there or to make something a little 0:17:41.320 --> 0:17:44.119 bit worse that it possibly is in real life. 0:17:44.240 --> 0:17:46.080 Not so much like I would like you to say this, 0:17:46.240 --> 0:17:48.879 but they would be like, have you considered this like 0:17:49.160 --> 0:17:52.440 plan to thought in your head?

And I feel like Paul has probably been 0:18:11.840 --> 0:18:13.919 in a similar situation where it's like so focused on 0:18:13.960 --> 0:18:16.359 your dating life in this experience where it was so 0:18:16.440 --> 0:18:19.040 focused on mine, and it's like so hard when you 0:18:19.080 --> 0:18:21.040 have so many voices like coming at you. 0:18:21.240 --> 0:18:25.719 It's like, my like line in all the press is 0:18:26.080 --> 0:18:28.479 Paul is not going to stop until he finds a husband, 0:18:28.480 --> 0:18:31.120 and it's like I have been dating, like yeah, this 0:18:31.160 --> 0:18:34.200 isn't my first time, but first radio for a show. 0:18:34.240 --> 0:18:36.760 It's like I'm this hopeless romantic. 0:18:37.040 --> 0:18:37.840 That's your character. 0:18:37.960 --> 0:18:42.920 That's my character trying to find a husband. But like yeah, yeah, 0:18:43.040 --> 0:18:45.320 that stuff's always confronting too, because you're like, wait, am 0:18:45.359 --> 0:18:45.960 I this guy? 0:18:46.440 --> 0:18:47.679
