And so when I was invited 67 00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:19,320 Speaker 1: to the Elf Musical, on Broadway. We used to go 68 00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:21,360 Speaker 1: to The Grinch one. It wasn't Broadway. It was just 69 00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:22,920 Speaker 1: like a show we used to do, The Bubble Show. 70 00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:26,919 Speaker 1: I've always been really good at that, Like I see 71 00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:29,120 Speaker 1: something and then we're going to do it, you know 72 00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:31,200 Speaker 1: what I mean.

But Lo and behold, like sitting 90 00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:16,640 Speaker 1: right in front of the Gorgos.

The people on 173 00:08:01,080 --> 00:08:04,480 Speaker 1: the streets say that they won't both be They wouldn't 174 00:08:04,520 --> 00:08:06,960 Speaker 1: have Teresa and Melissa and Joe. I guess there's still 175 00:08:06,960 --> 00:08:09,120 Speaker 1: this rift, which is crazy. By the way, it's totally 176 00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:12,040 Speaker 1: crazy that this show, which is it is the show 177 00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:13,640 Speaker 1: got in the way. And it was funny because I 178 00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:15,960 Speaker 1: explained it to my daughter. I was like, they're on TV. 179 00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:17,680 Speaker 1: They're on the Jersey Housewise and I was like, remember 180 00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:22,240 Speaker 1: bringing you met Teresa backstage at Bravo whatever, watch Rappens Live. 181 00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:23,760 Speaker 2: And I was like, so they don't speak. 182 00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:27,560 Speaker 1: She's his sister and they don't speak, presumably because Melissa 183 00:08:27,640 --> 00:08:28,680 Speaker 1: was like the new one on the show and it 184 00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:31,400 Speaker 1: was kind of Teresa's show. And then the parents died, 185 00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:34,000 Speaker 1: and when the parents die, that's the glue that doesn't 186 00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:37,760 Speaker 1: hold everybody together. And Joe was like, spot on it, 187 00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:40,040 Speaker 1: like the way I described it, Okay, no blame. I 188 00:08:40,040 --> 00:08:41,640 Speaker 1: didn't say anything like that. I'm just telling I just 189 00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:56,800 Speaker 1: was reporting the news, sports on weather. Then I was 190 00:08:56,840 --> 00:09:01,880 Speaker 1: actually thinking, like, you know, when you're casting a show 191 00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:05,640 Speaker 1: like you're casting the family. And actually in the moment, 192 00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:07,560 Speaker 1: I was thinking like, wow, like you two are one, 193 00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:11,079 Speaker 1: like you're casting Melissa and Joe, Like he's as entertaining 194 00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:13,680 Speaker 1: as any housewif to me. And I don't know how 195 00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:16,280 Speaker 1: much Teresa and her new guy because I haven't seen 196 00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:19,080 Speaker 1: it in years. I mean I was sitting with the 197 00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:22,040 Speaker 1: kid who's either the one who's fourteen or seventeen that 198 00:09:22,160 --> 00:09:24,280 Speaker 1: like he got in the fight at the christening, like 199 00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:24,839 Speaker 1: full fit. 200 00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:26,520 Speaker 2: I mean he was like those fourteen years ago. 201 00:09:26,559 --> 00:09:29,000 Speaker 1: So I guess that was the fourteen year old that 202 00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:32,440 Speaker 1: Joe Gorgo got into a physical altercation at his son's christening. 203 00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:33,040 Speaker 2: I was dying. 204 00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:35,880 Speaker 1: So anyway, I was thinking, like he's as entertaining. And 205 00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:37,400 Speaker 1: I don't know how much the kids are in the show, 206 00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:40,240 Speaker 1: but I was thinking, it's Teresa's new guy entertaining. He 207 00:09:40,280 --> 00:09:43,440 Speaker 1: looks entertaining. He seemed nice, you know, these two of them. 208 00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:44,800 Speaker 1: Sure they were an opinion of him, but like when 209 00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:47,240 Speaker 1: I met him, he seemed nice. But the internet has 210 00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:49,840 Speaker 1: a lot to say about him too, and are her 211 00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:51,440 Speaker 1: kids on the show. So if you had to cast 212 00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:52,839 Speaker 1: only one of the two, I don't know what you 213 00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:55,240 Speaker 1: would do between Teres, Teresa's old school, Melissa and Joe 214 00:09:55,280 --> 00:09:58,320 Speaker 1: are one one dog like Bigian Smalls. I don't know, 215 00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:00,640 Speaker 1: but I enjoyed hanging out with and if it was 216 00:10:00,679 --> 00:10:02,160 Speaker 1: Teresa and the other guy behind me, I would have 217 00:10:02,160 --> 00:10:03,880 Speaker 1: been excited as well. 218 00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:05,680 Speaker 2: But I was excited for these sale. It was great. 219 00:10:06,160 --> 00:10:09,839 Speaker 1: So now it brings me to talk about it's kind 220 00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:12,160 Speaker 1: of it can't go on. They'll have to mix in 221 00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:13,920 Speaker 1: the old with the new, or just the old. But 222 00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:17,320 Speaker 1: it's funny how things have to be timed right. I 223 00:10:17,480 --> 00:10:19,800 Speaker 1: talked about the announcement when they announced the new cast 224 00:10:19,840 --> 00:10:21,559 Speaker 1: and the legacy, and I thought it sounded boring. I 225 00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:25,040 Speaker 1: didn't understand it. It was confusing. Evidently I was right, because 226 00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:27,120 Speaker 1: the announcement was boring and the show is boring. It 227 00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:30,400 Speaker 1: didn't make any sense. It was like just rints, like 228 00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:33,920 Speaker 1: it never happened. All these women and now the new 229 00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:37,240 Speaker 1: women just don't land. The new show is obviously terrible, 230 00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:39,280 Speaker 1: because the whole entire internet has spoken about it. I 231 00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:42,679 Speaker 1: have not seen it since the first one, but I 232 00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:45,079 Speaker 1: don't know. I think there's some indication for a network 233 00:10:45,080 --> 00:10:47,280 Speaker 1: that got really big for their bridges didn't treat their 234 00:10:47,320 --> 00:10:49,440 Speaker 1: talent properly, got in a lot of trouble for many 235 00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:53,360 Speaker 1: different things as that's a completely coarse correct and redirect 236 00:10:53,559 --> 00:10:57,040 Speaker 1: and Shift has put all of its eggs in basically 237 00:10:57,040 --> 00:11:00,079 Speaker 1: a housewives basket with the exception of anderprom rules and 238 00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:02,640 Speaker 1: a little below deck and now is to make a 239 00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:06,079 Speaker 1: real adjustment. But they definitely have never been a network 240 00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:09,120 Speaker 1: that has been known for treating their talent properly. That 241 00:11:09,280 --> 00:11:11,640 Speaker 1: is something that is widely known. It's a very big 242 00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:15,880 Speaker 1: deal with culture at networks and some networks. Some networks 243 00:11:15,880 --> 00:11:18,720 Speaker 1: don't pay well, but they treat their talent right. Some 244 00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:22,360 Speaker 1: pay really well and treat their talent right. It's always 245 00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:26,200 Speaker 1: a financial discussion, but there's such a haphazard way with 246 00:11:26,280 --> 00:11:31,960 Speaker 1: which housewives are paid, not paid, treated favored in the 247 00:11:31,960 --> 00:11:34,720 Speaker 1: good box in the bad box. You know me, I 248 00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:38,520 Speaker 1: left after three seasons. I left, went back and then 249 00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:42,360 Speaker 1: guess what I left again. I went and came back 250 00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:44,760 Speaker 1: for like that connection with the audience, No, and I 251 00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:48,120 Speaker 1: went back for the benjamins. I went back for the Benjamins, 252 00:11:48,400 --> 00:11:51,839 Speaker 1: and I stayed for the Benjamins. And when I left 253 00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:56,080 Speaker 1: it just my soul. I left the first time, because 254 00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:59,120 Speaker 1: my soul felt crushed and toxic, and that was ballsy 255 00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:01,720 Speaker 1: to leave a show a seasons when you're nobody, like, 256 00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:03,200 Speaker 1: who the hell do I think I am. I always 257 00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:05,600 Speaker 1: had faith in myself, but you have to make an 258 00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:07,640 Speaker 1: exit to make an entrance. I did not intend to 259 00:12:07,640 --> 00:12:12,040 Speaker 1: ever come back. I left, and I was convinced because 260 00:12:12,040 --> 00:12:14,520 Speaker 1: I was made an offer I couldn't refuse. Monetarily, it 261 00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:17,480 Speaker 1: was also a good ego flex. It made me the 262 00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:21,360 Speaker 1: highest paid housewife in history, and no one ever knew, 263 00:12:21,360 --> 00:12:23,120 Speaker 1: and no one to this day knows what I got paid, 264 00:12:23,920 --> 00:12:27,160 Speaker 1: and that number was a baseline, so it kept growing 265 00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:31,080 Speaker 1: and I stayed for all those years, and I remember 266 00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:34,840 Speaker 1: talking to someone really high power up and power in 267 00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:37,040 Speaker 1: the industry who basically said, there's gonna be a moment 268 00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:39,240 Speaker 1: which we passed where it's gonna be like why is 269 00:12:39,320 --> 00:12:42,079 Speaker 1: she here? Like with all that you have going on 270 00:12:42,320 --> 00:12:44,000 Speaker 1: and everything you're it's gonna be weird. 271 00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:44,640 Speaker 2: Why there. 272 00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:47,360 Speaker 1: We had passed that point, and then I got to 273 00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:49,240 Speaker 1: that point for myself because it was like even my 274 00:12:49,280 --> 00:12:51,840 Speaker 1: business managers, You're like, this is months of your time 275 00:12:51,880 --> 00:12:53,599 Speaker 1: for all this money, millions of dollars, And I was like, 276 00:12:53,640 --> 00:12:55,080 Speaker 1: I got to get the fuck out of here, and 277 00:12:55,120 --> 00:12:56,760 Speaker 1: it was the best decision I ever made, which is 278 00:12:56,800 --> 00:13:01,680 Speaker 1: to tell you that you should always go with your soul, 279 00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:05,160 Speaker 1: how your gut and your soul feels. Not you can't 280 00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:09,880 Speaker 1: make decisions out of money or fear. You know your fomo. 281 00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:14,360 Speaker 1: You've got to be truthful, and it's never failed me. 282 00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:16,960 Speaker 1: First time I left, I was able to get millions 283 00:13:16,960 --> 00:13:19,319 Speaker 1: of dollars as a result of leaving and coming back 284 00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:21,000 Speaker 1: just a couple of years later, because they got to 285 00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:24,200 Speaker 1: see my value. Second time. I you know, when I 286 00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:27,280 Speaker 1: came back. The second time I left changed my entire life. 287 00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:31,280 Speaker 1: I created an entire business which is three times as 288 00:13:31,320 --> 00:13:33,280 Speaker 1: lucrative as what I was getting paid at my highest 289 00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:36,680 Speaker 1: day on Housewives. So fear will hold you back, you jump. 290 00:13:37,559 --> 00:13:39,800 Speaker 1: And what I was going to say also is that, like, 291 00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:43,040 Speaker 1: I have a different relationship to it now. So when 292 00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:45,720 Speaker 1: I'm seated in front of any housewife, for the most part, 293 00:13:46,240 --> 00:13:50,000 Speaker 1: I am happy, I am positive, I smile. There's no competition, 294 00:13:50,040 --> 00:13:52,559 Speaker 1: there's no angst. It's not me against them. I'm happy 295 00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:54,040 Speaker 1: for them. I want them to thrive. I hope they 296 00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:56,800 Speaker 1: pay Melissa Gory a ten million dollars a season. Same 297 00:13:56,880 --> 00:13:57,280 Speaker 1: with Joe. 298 00:13:57,360 --> 00:14:01,520 Speaker 2: I support the four women who can't stand me. 299 00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:04,360 Speaker 1: From duringda you know, from during the Durna is fine 300 00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:08,480 Speaker 1: with me, and Sonya loves me, and Luanne it is 301 00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:11,600 Speaker 1: probably right down the middle, and so is uh Ramona. 302 00:14:11,640 --> 00:14:15,840 Speaker 1: And it doesn't even matter because I can still acknowledge 303 00:14:15,840 --> 00:14:18,040 Speaker 1: that they were good housewives and that they held the 304 00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:19,640 Speaker 1: show on their back and would have stayed to the 305 00:14:19,840 --> 00:14:21,400 Speaker 1: dying last day. 306 00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:22,760 Speaker 2: That's the thing. 307 00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:27,920 Speaker 1: About Luanne, Sonya, Ramona and Durnda. They would never have left. 308 00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:30,520 Speaker 1: They've all said they would leave. Not one of those 309 00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:35,000 Speaker 1: four would ever leave. Very few people and I've I 310 00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:38,120 Speaker 1: know the list. It's like three people that have maybe 311 00:14:38,120 --> 00:14:40,520 Speaker 1: three to four that I've ever really left the housewives. 312 00:14:40,920 --> 00:14:44,360 Speaker 1: People say they've left, they haven't. They've been let go. 313 00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:48,440 Speaker 1: And people have said to me personally, if I've ever fired, 314 00:14:48,440 --> 00:14:50,840 Speaker 1: I'll just walk out gracefully, and none of them have 315 00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:53,320 Speaker 1: done that either. They all really want back in because 316 00:14:53,320 --> 00:14:56,440 Speaker 1: they just get that high and they get that relevance 317 00:14:56,480 --> 00:14:58,480 Speaker 1: and they're getting older at the same time, and they 318 00:14:58,520 --> 00:15:01,560 Speaker 1: just crave it because it's we lack purpose as we 319 00:15:01,560 --> 00:15:04,080 Speaker 1: get older, and it's a it's a slice a humble pie, 320 00:15:04,120 --> 00:15:06,280 Speaker 1: and I would be lying if I said I didn't. 321 00:15:06,280 --> 00:15:06,680 Speaker 2: I didn't. 322 00:15:07,600 --> 00:15:10,640 Speaker 1: I didn't think it's a little like karmic. And I 323 00:15:10,720 --> 00:15:14,160 Speaker 1: love when people say that back in my day it. 324 00:15:14,040 --> 00:15:14,920 Speaker 2: Was, it was the best. 325 00:15:14,960 --> 00:15:17,320 Speaker 1: But I also love when people don't even really remember 326 00:15:17,400 --> 00:15:18,920 Speaker 1: me on it because it was so long ago, because 327 00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:21,720 Speaker 1: that means the Rinse is complete. Like now I'm gonna 328 00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:23,400 Speaker 1: point where I can talk about this because I feel 329 00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:25,480 Speaker 1: like I'm so separated from it and people don't think 330 00:15:25,520 --> 00:15:29,600 Speaker 1: about me connected to it anymore and the Rinse. So 331 00:15:29,640 --> 00:15:31,480 Speaker 1: when I that's why when I I deleted the video. 332 00:15:31,520 --> 00:15:33,280 Speaker 1: Sometimes my public is to be like, please, you can 333 00:15:33,360 --> 00:15:36,440 Speaker 1: want to be a wave dumpster and like rinse it off, 334 00:15:36,520 --> 00:15:40,160 Speaker 1: but you can't forget where you came from. And I 335 00:15:40,240 --> 00:16:00,560 Speaker 1: also do have an opinion on it. You've got the 336 00:16:00,680 --> 00:16:02,280 Speaker 1: balls to pick up there
