1 00:00:04,920 --> 00:00:06,240 Speaker 1: Sauce on the side. 2 00:00:06,280 --> 00:00:06,600 Speaker 2: What's up? 3 00:00:06,640 --> 00:00:09,239 Speaker 1: It's Gandhi here with Diamond. And I say this all 4 00:00:09,240 --> 00:00:10,880 Speaker 1: the time because I'm always excited for the guests that 5 00:00:10,880 --> 00:00:13,319 Speaker 1: we have come in. We have a guy named Rob 6 00:00:13,360 --> 00:00:15,760 Speaker 1: Shooter coming in today. Rob Shooter you may have heard 7 00:00:15,800 --> 00:00:18,040 Speaker 1: on The Big Show, The Naughty Gossip. He used to 8 00:00:18,040 --> 00:00:22,560 Speaker 1: be in pr and he has all the tea on 9 00:00:22,720 --> 00:00:25,639 Speaker 1: all the people, and I know Diamond probably has a 10 00:00:25,640 --> 00:00:28,400 Speaker 1: million things that she wants to ask him. But he's 11 00:00:28,480 --> 00:00:31,000 Speaker 1: just a good time. He even just him telling a 12 00:00:31,040 --> 00:00:34,840 Speaker 1: regular story about his day walking here whatever. He's highly entertaining. 13 00:00:34,880 --> 00:00:36,560 Speaker 1: So I'm very excited to have him in here today. 14 00:00:36,720 --> 00:00:38,040 Speaker 2: I'm so excited. 15 00:00:38,240 --> 00:00:41,040 Speaker 1: What are you chompa at the bit about here? 16 00:00:41,120 --> 00:00:44,400 Speaker 3: Well? I follow him on substack number one. I don't 17 00:00:44,520 --> 00:00:46,920 Speaker 3: understand the Megan Mark will hate. But I can't tell 18 00:00:47,080 --> 00:00:51,280 Speaker 3: if he like is telling a story from a friend perspective, 19 00:00:51,400 --> 00:00:53,199 Speaker 3: or if he's trying to shit on her. Okay, you 20 00:00:53,240 --> 00:00:56,000 Speaker 3: know so, But also I don't understand why people don't 21 00:00:56,080 --> 00:00:58,880 Speaker 3: like her like I, you know. And then also he 22 00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:00,680 Speaker 3: just knows so many people, well I want to know, 23 00:01:00,920 --> 00:01:02,800 Speaker 3: you know, he does who he likes, who. 24 00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:05,520 Speaker 1: He doesn't like, he's pretty open about that stuff too. Yes, 25 00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:07,679 Speaker 1: he tries lightly every now and then, but if you 26 00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:09,240 Speaker 1: really get him going, he's like, and by the way, 27 00:01:09,319 --> 00:01:12,480 Speaker 1: so and so fucking sucks. I love it because I 28 00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:14,120 Speaker 1: want to hear those things, like when you hear it 29 00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:18,600 Speaker 1: from an everyday person that maybe ran into Jennifer Lopez 30 00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:20,640 Speaker 1: one time. And I have no doubt we're going to 31 00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:24,560 Speaker 1: talk about jay Lo a lot. You can't necessarily go 32 00:01:24,800 --> 00:01:27,080 Speaker 1: on their experience as to like who she is as 33 00:01:27,120 --> 00:01:30,000 Speaker 1: a person. You can go on their experience as far 34 00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:31,920 Speaker 1: as what she was to them at that moment. Sure, 35 00:01:31,959 --> 00:01:33,480 Speaker 1: so if she was a bitch to them, I believe 36 00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:35,640 Speaker 1: that that doesn't make her a bitch overall. But Rob 37 00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:40,120 Speaker 1: worked for these people, with these people. He's attended award shows, Gallas, 38 00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:43,440 Speaker 1: like all the stuff with incredibly popular celebrities, so he 39 00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:45,880 Speaker 1: knows them, knows them, and I can't wait to get 40 00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:49,200 Speaker 1: some of this info. I hope that you are ready 41 00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:53,080 Speaker 1: to be a part of it for this. Yeah, let's 42 00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:56,800 Speaker 1: talk about that for the second. So some of our 43 00:01:56,800 --> 00:01:59,560 Speaker 1: most popular episodes are when it's just you, Me and 44 00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:01,040 Speaker 1: Andrew and Josh. If he wants to come in here, 45 00:02:01,080 --> 00:02:02,800 Speaker 1: we've talked about this a million times, but you don't 46 00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:04,640 Speaker 1: really like I mean, I guess you'll do that. You 47 00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:06,240 Speaker 1: do those episodes of me, and you don't care about 48 00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:08,040 Speaker 1: that so much, but you never want to be on 49 00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:12,480 Speaker 1: the air, on the show, on the big show. Why. 50 00:02:12,639 --> 00:02:15,000 Speaker 3: I think that people don't realize that there's a lot 51 00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:17,960 Speaker 3: of pressure when it comes to the big show. Really yeah, 52 00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:19,920 Speaker 3: I feel like there's a lot of pressure period with 53 00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:23,840 Speaker 3: certain things, like I'm nervous. I can talk to you. 54 00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:27,560 Speaker 3: I can talk to you because I'm comfortable with you. Okay, 55 00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:31,800 Speaker 3: we chat whatever. Honestly, I don't remember half of the 56 00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:34,680 Speaker 3: things that I say. So when people are like, oh 57 00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:36,640 Speaker 3: I loved what you said or I love you on 58 00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:38,799 Speaker 3: Gandhi's podcast, I'm like, oh god, what did I say? 59 00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:39,600 Speaker 2: Like I don't remember. 60 00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:42,040 Speaker 1: People say all the time, more diamond, we want more diamond. 61 00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:43,240 Speaker 2: God, it makes me nervous. 62 00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:45,440 Speaker 3: Things just come out of my mouth, right, And so like, 63 00:02:46,800 --> 00:02:49,600 Speaker 3: I think that when it comes to the big show, 64 00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:53,040 Speaker 3: if I say something I probably shouldn't say, I feel 65 00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:54,400 Speaker 3: like I'm gonna get in trouble for it. 66 00:02:54,600 --> 00:02:57,000 Speaker 2: I probably won't Who. 67 00:02:56,880 --> 00:02:58,080 Speaker 1: Would get you? Who would come for you? 68 00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:04,680 Speaker 2: Ah? Actually, it's like our question, no our vet manager. 69 00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:09,160 Speaker 3: No, I think people maybe the people. And it's easy 70 00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:11,040 Speaker 3: to say that you don't care about what people have 71 00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:13,480 Speaker 3: to say about you, but sometimes, like I think my 72 00:03:13,520 --> 00:03:15,880 Speaker 3: biggest thing is like saying something that I don't mean, 73 00:03:16,040 --> 00:03:18,280 Speaker 3: like unintentionally hurting people's feelings or something. 74 00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:19,920 Speaker 2: Well, yeah, true. 75 00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:23,519 Speaker 1: We should get to this with Rob too. I think people, 76 00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:26,520 Speaker 1: I understand what you're saying. As someone who is shit 77 00:03:26,639 --> 00:03:29,920 Speaker 1: on often, I really don't care that much anymore. I mean, 78 00:03:29,960 --> 00:03:31,960 Speaker 1: every now and then there might be like I might 79 00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:33,640 Speaker 1: be having a bad day and you're like, ah, shit, 80 00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:35,240 Speaker 1: that was mean. Why did you have to send me that? 81 00:03:35,320 --> 00:03:37,160 Speaker 1: But I don't seek it out. I read the comments 82 00:03:37,160 --> 00:03:38,520 Speaker 1: on my page, and I think I've done a pretty 83 00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:40,680 Speaker 1: good job so far, like filtering out all of the 84 00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:43,640 Speaker 1: people who I am not interested in hearing from anymore. 85 00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:46,640 Speaker 1: But it is like, it is what it is. Right, 86 00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:48,600 Speaker 1: you have an opinion about something, You're never gonna make 87 00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:51,360 Speaker 1: anybody happy. You're never gonna make everybody happy. I should say, 88 00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:54,400 Speaker 1: hopefully make somebody happy. But as long as you're happy, 89 00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:57,960 Speaker 1: you're not hurting anybody who cares. People misspeak all the time, 90 00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:01,360 Speaker 1: people fuck things up all the time. Whatever, Hm, shit happens, 91 00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:07,000 Speaker 1: but I understand stepping into the arena. I remember, it's 92 00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:09,680 Speaker 1: a little wild. Yeah, I mean even I will tell 93 00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:11,720 Speaker 1: you this, and I think I've said this before. So 94 00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:14,680 Speaker 1: I started as an intern when I was in radio. 95 00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:16,240 Speaker 1: I was still in college, and then they hired me 96 00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:18,040 Speaker 1: full time. I was still in college. But I think 97 00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:21,480 Speaker 1: because I was so young the audience and because it 98 00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:24,520 Speaker 1: was a Midwest and they had started my journey with 99 00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:27,880 Speaker 1: me and followed along, they were super supportive and it 100 00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:29,760 Speaker 1: was like everything I did they clapped and they were nice, 101 00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:31,480 Speaker 1: and it was like, yay, oh my gosh, good job, 102 00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:34,039 Speaker 1: you're growing up. So when I moved to Boston, because 103 00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:36,479 Speaker 1: they recruited me hard to move to Boston, I just 104 00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:39,720 Speaker 1: expected that that's how everyone was gonna treat me. And 105 00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:45,640 Speaker 1: fun fact no, So that was actually my first venture 106 00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:49,240 Speaker 1: into like the rings of hell. It was so bad. 107 00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:51,040 Speaker 1: They were like whole pages. I mean, I guess this 108 00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:53,440 Speaker 1: still exists, but there was like Facebook pages about how 109 00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:55,920 Speaker 1: I've ruined everything on my first day. What I hadn't 110 00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:58,120 Speaker 1: even had a chance to like talk and get things going. 111 00:04:58,520 --> 00:05:00,040 Speaker 1: Give me a year and then tell me that I 112 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:02,920 Speaker 1: ruined it all. Fine, but day one, no, it was 113 00:05:03,000 --> 00:05:06,400 Speaker 1: so mean, and then I was like, okay, well I'm prepared, 114 00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:08,440 Speaker 1: Like now I know, I'm bracing myself. 115 00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:08,919 Speaker 2: It's okay. 116 00:05:09,640 --> 00:05:12,120 Speaker 1: And then I came here thinking it'll probably be like 117 00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:14,960 Speaker 1: the same in the beginning as Boston. But this show 118 00:05:15,040 --> 00:05:17,400 Speaker 1: is so much bigger and had such a big pull 119 00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:21,880 Speaker 1: and reach that I was not prepared for the tsunami 120 00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:25,000 Speaker 1: of mean shit that started coming my way and then 121 00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:29,480 Speaker 1: didn't stop. Well, I didn't change myself. I would drown 122 00:05:29,560 --> 00:05:32,560 Speaker 1: in that. So you just I don't care about it. 123 00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:34,640 Speaker 1: I know it's easy to say, it's not necessarily easy 124 00:05:34,640 --> 00:05:36,760 Speaker 1: to do, but I think there are four more people 125 00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:38,800 Speaker 1: who are rooting for you and who love you, and 126 00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:42,719 Speaker 1: who are more diamonding it all the time. So I 127 00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:44,840 Speaker 1: think you undersell yourself. And I think you're really good 128 00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:45,280 Speaker 1: at what you do. 129 00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:46,560 Speaker 2: Oh I think I would love. 130 00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:49,040 Speaker 1: To have more of you here and on the show. Well, 131 00:05:49,120 --> 00:05:51,039 Speaker 1: thank you that you're not going to do it. 132 00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:55,159 Speaker 2: Maybe this is the year. What yeah, I. 133 00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:57,000 Speaker 1: Maybe let's make it happen. 134 00:05:57,400 --> 00:05:58,520 Speaker 2: Let's get it popping. 135 00:05:58,720 --> 00:05:59,960 Speaker 1: You know, Elvis loves talking to you. 136 00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:04,279 Speaker 3: Scares me though, Why he's just a different type of person. 137 00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:09,400 Speaker 1: What are you scared of? Elvis, it's not the way. 138 00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:11,440 Speaker 1: At some point, guarantee he pops in here. Because he's 139 00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:13,360 Speaker 1: here today, wandering around somewhere. He's gonna come in. 140 00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:16,359 Speaker 2: Yeah, keep me on my toes. Why don't you. I 141 00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:20,320 Speaker 2: don't know. I just I'm like, oh god, what, I 142 00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:20,760 Speaker 2: don't know. 143 00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:22,880 Speaker 3: It's something about him that I'm just it makes me 144 00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:24,480 Speaker 3: uneasy when Mike's are around. 145 00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:27,200 Speaker 2: If we're just chilling, fine, I'll say whatever. 146 00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:31,000 Speaker 1: But like, oh see, I would say, of all the 147 00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:34,599 Speaker 1: dudes that I've worked with, he's the easiest one to 148 00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:37,960 Speaker 1: play back and forth with. Oh god, the easiest. I mean, 149 00:06:38,040 --> 00:06:41,240 Speaker 1: like he just he rolls with it. He's really witty 150 00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:42,040 Speaker 1: and funny. 151 00:06:42,080 --> 00:06:43,040 Speaker 4: He is and there. 152 00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:45,120 Speaker 1: I mean, I think that there have been a lot 153 00:06:45,120 --> 00:06:47,520 Speaker 1: of instances that I've been in where a lot of 154 00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:49,479 Speaker 1: it happens here all the time. I'll say something that 155 00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:51,719 Speaker 1: I think is hilarious and there's like no reaction whatsoever. 156 00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:55,200 Speaker 1: He reacts most of the time, even if it's silent 157 00:06:55,240 --> 00:06:57,599 Speaker 1: and he's like flipping me the bird. He does. He's 158 00:06:57,640 --> 00:06:59,880 Speaker 1: paying attention to like what's going on. So he is 159 00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:04,680 Speaker 1: pretty easy to interact with. You just gotta interact, Oh okay, Yeah, 160 00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:09,320 Speaker 1: So One of the things about radio is open ended 161 00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:12,760 Speaker 1: answers or long answers. I should say open ended questions. 162 00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:15,640 Speaker 1: So like, if I ask you a question, the response 163 00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:18,320 Speaker 1: should never be yes or no. Fine, it should be 164 00:07:18,320 --> 00:07:22,520 Speaker 1: a yes and or a no because we're learning. 165 00:07:22,720 --> 00:07:25,720 Speaker 2: Okay, yes, we're gonna do it is I don't know. 166 00:07:25,920 --> 00:07:29,400 Speaker 1: I mean that's better.

See Rob? 174 00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:56,720 Speaker 1: Okay? So, Rob, every time you come in and you 175 00:07:56,800 --> 00:08:00,080 Speaker 1: talk to us for maybe twenty minutes, I have a 176 00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:02,920 Speaker 1: billion more questions about what is going on in the 177 00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:05,160 Speaker 1: world of celebrity and specifically with like you as a 178 00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:09,960 Speaker 1: human being, how your life as a publicist for celebrities started, 179 00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:12,600 Speaker 1: some of the juiciest things that you've seen and done, 180 00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:16,080 Speaker 1: and just in general, like what is your life like? 181 00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:19,160 Speaker 4: That's why you have this podcast? See because the what 182 00:08:19,200 --> 00:08:20,680 Speaker 4: do you call it? The Big Show? I like that. 183 00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:23,640 Speaker 4: So the Big Show, it's brilliant, But that Big Show 184 00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:26,040 Speaker 4: is a machine and it has to move at a 185 00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:29,160 Speaker 4: certain pace and there's technical stuff that I didn't realize 186 00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:31,040 Speaker 4: until I got my own TV show. You have to 187 00:08:31,040 --> 00:08:33,120 Speaker 4: throw the commercial break, you have to pay the bills, 188 00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:36,280 Speaker 4: and so that Big Show, even though it sounds like 189 00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:38,120 Speaker 4: it is all spur of the moment, a lot of 190 00:08:38,120 --> 00:08:40,360 Speaker 4: it is sort of mapped out. That's the genius I 191 00:08:40,360 --> 00:08:42,840 Speaker 4: think of Elvis and the team is that you have 192 00:08:42,880 --> 00:08:45,640 Speaker 4: to sort of like put this jigsaw puzzle together or 193 00:08:45,640 --> 00:08:47,719 Speaker 4: playe together the while you're flying it, and you can 194 00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:49,800 Speaker 4: do both at once. But that's what I love now 195 00:08:49,800 --> 00:08:53,400 Speaker 4: about your podcasts and people's podcasts. You can take those 196 00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:57,120 Speaker 4: little nuggets, which are delicious. I'm not criticizing the Big Show. 197 00:08:57,120 --> 00:08:58,360 Speaker 4: I'm a huge fan of it. I've been doing it 198 00:08:58,360 --> 00:09:00,560 Speaker 4: for decades. But you can take those little pieces of 199 00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:03,440 Speaker 4: conversation and you can expand them, and that's what you 200 00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:04,520 Speaker 4: do better than anybody else. 201 00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:06,720 Speaker 1: I love you, and I want to expand on so much. 202 00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:08,880 Speaker 1: I know Diamond has some questions because she subscribes to 203 00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:11,680 Speaker 1: your substack, which, by the way, if people want to 204 00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:13,240 Speaker 1: do that, Rob how can they do that? 205 00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:16,560 Speaker 4: Yes, so sub sex this amazing platform that I didn't 206 00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:19,280 Speaker 4: really know much about it. So people are no longer 207 00:09:19,320 --> 00:09:22,079 Speaker 4: going to websites. Nobody goes to people dot com or 208 00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:24,480 Speaker 4: a stock that. People are not going to websites anymore. 209 00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:26,680 Speaker 4: What's happening is and I love this. We have to 210 00:09:26,679 --> 00:09:29,600 Speaker 4: come to you. Yeah, so my website Lazier every day 211 00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:34,400 Speaker 4: exactly knocking on your door. I think it's six months 212 00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:38,719 Speaker 4: for people now want information in newsletters, and you've got 213 00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:41,120 Speaker 4: to change with the times. Ten years ago I was 214 00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:43,640 Speaker 4: waking up every morning and watching the Today Show. I 215 00:09:43,679 --> 00:09:46,280 Speaker 4: love it. My habits have changed now, and so I 216 00:09:46,280 --> 00:09:48,440 Speaker 4: think we get our news in a different way. And 217 00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:52,160 Speaker 4: the smartest business people I know have changed with the times. 218 00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:54,400 Speaker 4: And I think part of my success in this business 219 00:09:54,559 --> 00:09:58,520 Speaker 4: is I've constantly reinvented myself. Not necessarily the content of 220 00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:01,960 Speaker 4: the work. It's always been, you see, naughty but nice gossip, 221 00:10:02,160 --> 00:10:04,079 Speaker 4: but the way I deliver it is something that I 222 00:10:04,120 --> 00:10:06,040 Speaker 4: think about a lot. So about a year ago, a 223 00:10:06,040 --> 00:10:08,160 Speaker 4: friend of mine is telling me about substack and this 224 00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:10,600 Speaker 4: is the new thing, and I played with a little bit. 225 00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:13,160 Speaker 4: And whenever you start something, you're not going to be 226 00:10:13,200 --> 00:10:14,960 Speaker 4: good at it. So that's why a lot of people 227 00:10:15,040 --> 00:10:19,080 Speaker 4: don't start, because they're frightened of being criticized. I don't care. 228 00:10:19,440 --> 00:10:22,240 Speaker 4: So I started it and I was awful, but after 229 00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:25,120 Speaker 4: about six months I got really good at it. And 230 00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:28,120 Speaker 4: now my substack is on fire. And so each day, 231 00:10:28,760 --> 00:10:30,840 Speaker 4: if you sign up for it, get a substack Rob 232 00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:33,280 Speaker 4: Shooter and type in my name and you just put 233 00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:36,120 Speaker 4: in your email address, and then throughout the day, every 234 00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:38,920 Speaker 4: time a really big story breaks, two three times a day, 235 00:10:38,920 --> 00:10:41,040 Speaker 4: you get a really short email. And at first I 236 00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:43,560 Speaker 4: was like, gosh, am I overloading people? And the answer 237 00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:45,880 Speaker 4: is yes, I was. It was Elvis who said, you 238 00:10:45,920 --> 00:10:48,120 Speaker 4: are blowing up my own box. He said four a 239 00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:51,080 Speaker 4: day unless like something tragic happens, and he gave me 240 00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:54,600 Speaker 4: a very tragic story that I won't repeat. So four 241 00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:56,760 Speaker 4: times a day, I picked the biggest story, four times 242 00:10:56,800 --> 00:10:58,240 Speaker 4: a day, and I give you some insight, I give 243 00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:01,760 Speaker 4: you some exclusive information, and people are eating it up. 244 00:11:01,840 --> 00:11:05,200 Speaker 4: I feel like I always felt a little bit in 245 00:11:05,280 --> 00:11:08,920 Speaker 4: the shadow of pres Hilton. He got there first. He 246 00:11:09,080 --> 00:11:12,120 Speaker 4: really owned the blog, he owned that world. I thought, 247 00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:15,839 Speaker 4: I know, I'm a bete, which I wouldn't do. I 248 00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:18,600 Speaker 4: knew as a better columnist. I knew I was a better, 249 00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:20,920 Speaker 4: better writer. I knew I had better sources, but he 250 00:11:21,040 --> 00:11:22,840 Speaker 4: got there first, and I tipped my hat to him. 251 00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:24,520 Speaker 4: I have so much respect that he did it. But 252 00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:26,400 Speaker 4: I was always a little bit in his shadow. He 253 00:11:26,559 --> 00:11:29,400 Speaker 4: was my Britney and I was Jessica Simpson like I 254 00:11:29,520 --> 00:11:35,640 Speaker 4: just I wasn't quite the star Stack. For the first 255 00:11:35,640 --> 00:11:40,320 Speaker 4: time ever, I feel like the star. I'm really killing it. 256 00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:42,000 Speaker 4: So if you if you want gossip, if you love 257 00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:43,480 Speaker 4: a celebrity gossip, and you don't want to get to 258 00:11:43,520 --> 00:11:48,360 Speaker 4: websites anymore, then then sign up and you literally get 259 00:11:48,360 --> 00:11:50,839 Speaker 4: a substack and then it will say sign up, and 260 00:11:50,880 --> 00:11:52,920 Speaker 4: you type in rob Shooter and it brings you to 261 00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:54,679 Speaker 4: my page. And then you put your email address in 262 00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:57,680 Speaker 4: said s h u t e R rob R A 263 00:11:57,720 --> 00:11:59,040 Speaker 4: B s h u t e R. If you want 264 00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:01,240 Speaker 4: a short go or a B s h u t 265 00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:04,400 Speaker 4: e R dot substack dot com. All right, I'll take 266 00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:06,680 Speaker 4: it right there. Put your email addressing and it's really 267 00:12:06,720 --> 00:12:10,320 Speaker 4: simple too. I think this is a real lovely thing 268 00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:12,679 Speaker 4: about substack. You know, sometimes when you sign up for something, 269 00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:17,719 Speaker 4: you can't subscribe unless you go down a rabbit hole 270 00:12:17,800 --> 00:12:20,360 Speaker 4: up and lad down. It gives you ten steps and 271 00:12:20,400 --> 00:12:22,520 Speaker 4: then I'll still get your emails this If you get 272 00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:25,040 Speaker 4: bored of me, and you won't, you just hit one 273 00:12:25,080 --> 00:12:26,640 Speaker 4: little unsubscribe and I'm gone. 274 00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:28,520 Speaker 1: Are you selling our information to a third part? 275 00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:32,280 Speaker 4: I'm not. Yeah, no, not yet. But it is lovely 276 00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:35,560 Speaker 4: to see you build something. You're doing it with this podcast. 277 00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:39,680 Speaker 4: We've been both of us. We've been parts of massive organizations, 278 00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:42,760 Speaker 4: so big brands, which I'm so lucky at as being 279 00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:45,440 Speaker 4: part of it, and they're great. But it's also lovely 280 00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:47,800 Speaker 4: to have your own little piece of the pie. It is. 281 00:12:47,880 --> 00:12:50,400 Speaker 1: It's nice to do something creatively that is just you 282 00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:52,560 Speaker 1: and it's just what you want to do. Nobody's forcing you, 283 00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:54,920 Speaker 1: nobody's telling you what you can and can't say. You're 284 00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:57,839 Speaker 1: not really taking off clients. We don't have any. It's great. 285 00:12:58,120 --> 00:12:59,960 Speaker 4: How long before this show hit its strung? 286 00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:01,480 Speaker 1: This podcast? 287 00:13:01,559 --> 00:13:04,080 Speaker 4: Yeah? When we like this is the show, you know, 288 00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:04,520 Speaker 4: I don't know. 289 00:13:04,480 --> 00:13:07,439 Speaker 1: That it has yet rights, we're working on it. We 290 00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:10,280 Speaker 1: So what's really interesting is I love having guests on 291 00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:12,400 Speaker 1: because I say this all the time. There are things 292 00:13:12,400 --> 00:13:13,920 Speaker 1: I want to do with this podcast. I want people 293 00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:17,360 Speaker 1: to learn something and get information from this right in 294 00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:20,240 Speaker 1: some capacity. And that's why I like having guests, because 295 00:13:20,240 --> 00:13:21,800 Speaker 1: I feel like we can learn something from every guest 296 00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:24,079 Speaker 1: who comes in. You can learn something from everybody every day. 297 00:13:24,360 --> 00:13:27,480 Speaker 1: But our most popular episodes, once people love the most, 298 00:13:27,520 --> 00:13:30,480 Speaker 1: are when it's just Diamond and Me shooting the ship 299 00:13:30,840 --> 00:13:32,640 Speaker 1: talking about nothing with Diamonds terrible. 300 00:13:32,679 --> 00:13:37,360 Speaker 4: I get the same on my show. On my podcast 301 00:13:37,760 --> 00:13:40,439 Speaker 4: Naughty but Nice, I used to have a celebrity guest 302 00:13:41,559 --> 00:13:44,280 Speaker 4: maybe two or three times a week, normally a housewife, 303 00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:48,120 Speaker 4: someone related always to a Kardashian, somebody that was involved 304 00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:50,560 Speaker 4: in the world of royals. And what I figured out 305 00:13:50,640 --> 00:13:54,120 Speaker 4: very quickly is they necessary didn't necessarily want want guests. 306 00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:59,839 Speaker 4: They wanted me. Your listeners want you. Well, that's it's 307 00:14:00,040 --> 00:14:00,720 Speaker 4: so flattering. 308 00:14:00,880 --> 00:14:03,320 Speaker 1: It is very flattering, it's super nice, and it's just 309 00:14:03,320 --> 00:14:06,600 Speaker 1: a fun thing to do. It's a creative outlet. I 310 00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:08,959 Speaker 1: was a producer my whole life until I came here, 311 00:14:09,280 --> 00:14:10,920 Speaker 1: and now I've been here for long enough that maybe 312 00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:13,000 Speaker 1: I should have shaken it a little bit. But it's 313 00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:14,320 Speaker 1: really tough for me to just sit in the seat 314 00:14:14,320 --> 00:14:16,440 Speaker 1: and only talk and not do all the other things around. 315 00:14:16,480 --> 00:14:18,680 Speaker 4: Don't shake it. Honestly, if you've got a skill out there, 316 00:14:19,000 --> 00:14:21,600 Speaker 4: whatever you're doing right now, you did something before this, 317 00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:24,200 Speaker 4: and if you enjoyed it, you can bring it all together. 318 00:14:24,560 --> 00:14:27,160 Speaker 4: For a long time, when I was a publicist, I 319 00:14:27,200 --> 00:14:30,560 Speaker 4: didn't really like being a publicist. I didn't really want 320 00:14:30,600 --> 00:14:32,640 Speaker 4: to do that job. I wanted to say something myself. 321 00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:35,520 Speaker 4: It was very difficult to walk red carpets and not speak. 322 00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:38,120 Speaker 4: I wanted to be talking and that didn't necessarily want 323 00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:40,440 Speaker 4: to be famous. But I had a voice, and so 324 00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:43,600 Speaker 4: that's why I made a pivot. However, all the skills 325 00:14:43,640 --> 00:14:46,800 Speaker 4: I learned as a publicist I now use and that 326 00:14:46,840 --> 00:14:49,680 Speaker 4: has really helped. So don't ever think like because you 327 00:14:49,800 --> 00:14:53,280 Speaker 4: were something, it doesn't it doesn't affect you anymore. It 328 00:14:53,320 --> 00:14:54,600 Speaker 4: actually makes you who you are. 329 00:14:54,520 --> 00:14:57,200 Speaker 1: Right, That's my foundation. And I actually think and Diamond 330 00:14:57,200 --> 00:14:59,040 Speaker 1: could probably attest to this in one way or another. 331 00:14:59,080 --> 00:15:02,520 Speaker 1: I think it drives people around here nuts because everybody 332 00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:04,640 Speaker 1: has this one position that they do, this one thing 333 00:15:04,640 --> 00:15:06,800 Speaker 1: that they do all the time. But from where I came, 334 00:15:07,240 --> 00:15:09,640 Speaker 1: I did all of those jobs. So it kind of 335 00:15:09,680 --> 00:15:11,440 Speaker 1: turns into a situation every now and then where I'm like, 336 00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:13,040 Speaker 1: don't piss on my leg and tell me it's raining. 337 00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:16,200 Speaker 1: I know how this works, I'll do it myself. And 338 00:15:16,240 --> 00:15:17,800 Speaker 1: then you know that's not really how. 339 00:15:17,680 --> 00:15:20,120 Speaker 4: People want to I started as a receptionist in my 340 00:15:20,120 --> 00:15:22,440 Speaker 4: first job in America. I answered the telephones at this 341 00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:25,200 Speaker 4: big PR company BNC, Bragman I mcafarelli. One of the 342 00:15:25,200 --> 00:15:28,560 Speaker 4: biggest would be Goldberg, Cameron, dis Kate Hudson. They had 343 00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:31,960 Speaker 4: superstar clients and big corporate clients too. And it's back 344 00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:34,040 Speaker 4: in the day when we didn't have cell phones, and 345 00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:35,840 Speaker 4: so you had to phone the main number to get 346 00:15:35,880 --> 00:15:39,520 Speaker 4: your publicist. And so every celebrity, every client would come 347 00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:42,640 Speaker 4: through my switchboard, would come through the reception And I 348 00:15:42,760 --> 00:15:45,560 Speaker 4: learned everything doing that job. And if somebody had said 349 00:15:45,560 --> 00:15:47,880 Speaker 4: to me, like Rob on your resume, it's a good 350 00:15:47,920 --> 00:15:50,640 Speaker 4: resume now, and there's some pretty impressive stuff on there, 351 00:15:50,920 --> 00:15:53,400 Speaker 4: the one where I learned everything was the reception desk. 352 00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:56,520 Speaker 4: I'm so glad that I wasn't one of those privileged 353 00:15:56,600 --> 00:15:59,360 Speaker 4: kids that got to miss that beat of life, because 354 00:15:59,360 --> 00:16:01,520 Speaker 4: some people go into companies and your dad's famous at 355 00:16:01,520 --> 00:16:04,200 Speaker 4: your mum's reach and you go straight into hot I 356 00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:06,280 Speaker 4: started at the bottom of the ladder and I'm really 357 00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:09,880 Speaker 4: grateful about that, because saying the skills you learn, you 358 00:16:09,880 --> 00:16:10,680 Speaker 4: don't get so much. 359 00:16:10,680 --> 00:16:12,840 Speaker 1: You learn about people, You learn how to interact with people. 360 00:16:12,880 --> 00:16:15,440 Speaker 1: You see the ship that rolls downhill, And how when 361 00:16:15,440 --> 00:16:18,120 Speaker 1: somebody at the top just you know, is feeling whimsical 362 00:16:18,120 --> 00:16:19,880 Speaker 1: one day and they just don't want to do the 363 00:16:19,920 --> 00:16:21,880 Speaker 1: thing that they said they were going to do, how 364 00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:25,080 Speaker 1: that impacts every other person down the road. So like, 365 00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:27,640 Speaker 1: I try really hard not to do that. Even though 366 00:16:27,960 --> 00:16:32,280 Speaker 1: I did cancel a guest recently because everyone was saying 367 00:16:32,280 --> 00:16:34,400 Speaker 1: how much I was going to love this woman and 368 00:16:34,680 --> 00:16:35,960 Speaker 1: it was going to be wonderful and I need to 369 00:16:35,960 --> 00:16:39,160 Speaker 1: watch this show. And then I watched the show and 370 00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:41,880 Speaker 1: I was appalled, and I was like, I don't I 371 00:16:41,920 --> 00:16:42,960 Speaker 1: don't even want. 372 00:16:42,800 --> 00:16:45,120 Speaker 4: That, But is that lovely on this show? You to 373 00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:48,440 Speaker 4: get to make that decision on the big show. If 374 00:16:49,040 --> 00:16:50,920 Speaker 4: a whole celebrity turns up, we were not going to 375 00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:52,240 Speaker 4: name them. We're not going to get in trouble here 376 00:16:52,280 --> 00:16:54,120 Speaker 4: at iHeart, but we all know who you are. You've 377 00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:56,480 Speaker 4: still got to do it here. You don't have to. 378 00:16:56,520 --> 00:16:57,120 Speaker 4: It's your shirt. 379 00:16:57,160 --> 00:16:58,560 Speaker 1: You're right, And by the way, you're not gonna get 380 00:16:58,560 --> 00:17:00,400 Speaker 1: in trouble for any things you say on this part, 381 00:17:00,480 --> 00:17:04,240 Speaker 1: you are safe. We call this the immunity room. Oh, 382 00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:06,960 Speaker 1: because at some point I'm gonna want you to name names. 383 00:17:07,560 --> 00:17:09,240 Speaker 4: I'm pretty I'm pretty open. 384 00:17:09,400 --> 00:17:13,000 Speaker 1: Okay, So first up, Diamond has a question about what 385 00:17:13,080 --> 00:17:15,960 Speaker 1: she's constantly seeing in your sub stack. Someone to let 386 00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:16,439 Speaker 1: her ask it. 387 00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:20,600 Speaker 4: Go Diamond, Hello, what is the. 388 00:17:20,480 --> 00:17:23,040 Speaker 2: Real issue with Megan Mark? 389 00:17:24,080 --> 00:17:24,480 Speaker 4: Why? 390 00:17:24,760 --> 00:17:27,639 Speaker 2: And I want to say, does she deserve it? But 391 00:17:27,640 --> 00:17:29,960 Speaker 2: according to your substack, sometimes you make me feel like 392 00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:31,680 Speaker 2: she does. I don't know what I'm. 393 00:17:31,480 --> 00:17:34,399 Speaker 4: Missing Meghan, Like everybody is really complicated. And when you 394 00:17:34,440 --> 00:17:37,040 Speaker 4: tell a story about a friend or a celebrity, it's 395 00:17:37,080 --> 00:17:39,040 Speaker 4: easy to do black or white. It's easy to do 396 00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:41,359 Speaker 4: one or a hundred. That's not true of anybody. We 397 00:17:41,400 --> 00:17:44,040 Speaker 4: all have our good days, we all have ha bad days. 398 00:17:44,480 --> 00:17:49,520 Speaker 4: Meghan has this ability to just make terrible decisions, business decisions. 399 00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:52,119 Speaker 4: I think she's made a really good romantic decision and 400 00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:55,200 Speaker 4: she's got the life partner that she loves. But if 401 00:17:55,200 --> 00:17:58,400 Speaker 4: there's a way to mess something up, they'll do it. 402 00:17:58,760 --> 00:18:02,080 Speaker 4: And I think part of it is what makes Meghan 403 00:18:02,160 --> 00:18:05,360 Speaker 4: a superstar, what makes her so interesting, what makes Harry 404 00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:08,360 Speaker 4: a superstar and so interesting is the one thing they're 405 00:18:08,359 --> 00:18:10,719 Speaker 4: trying to run away from, which is that they were 406 00:18:10,760 --> 00:18:13,000 Speaker 4: part of the royal family. So if you don't want 407 00:18:13,000 --> 00:18:15,680 Speaker 4: to talk about that, Harry, Meghan, then you're going to 408 00:18:15,880 --> 00:18:18,320 Speaker 4: go away. You've got to find something else to talk about. 409 00:18:18,520 --> 00:18:21,520 Speaker 4: And they've not been able to figure that out. I 410 00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:23,560 Speaker 4: say to friends all the time, if you don't want 411 00:18:23,560 --> 00:18:25,600 Speaker 4: to do this anymore, then what are you going to 412 00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:28,840 Speaker 4: do instead? If you pull a weed out of your garden, 413 00:18:29,240 --> 00:18:32,359 Speaker 4: unless you stick another plant into that hole, that weed's 414 00:18:32,400 --> 00:18:35,240 Speaker 4: going to grow back. So Harry and Meghan have become 415 00:18:35,280 --> 00:18:38,320 Speaker 4: famous through now talking about the royals, and it's such 416 00:18:38,320 --> 00:18:40,520 Speaker 4: a contradiction because if you spoke to Meghan or Harry, 417 00:18:40,520 --> 00:18:42,840 Speaker 4: they'd I don't want to talk about that, want my privacy, 418 00:18:42,920 --> 00:18:45,919 Speaker 4: don't But then they talk about it. Meghan gave us 419 00:18:45,920 --> 00:18:49,040 Speaker 4: all a lecture about social media and the dangers of it, 420 00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:51,840 Speaker 4: and I think she's actually probably right in a lot 421 00:18:51,840 --> 00:18:54,240 Speaker 4: of it. And then we see her children pop up 422 00:18:54,440 --> 00:18:56,760 Speaker 4: on her Instagram accounts, and it's always when she wants 423 00:18:56,840 --> 00:18:59,520 Speaker 4: to sell us something. So I wish they put better 424 00:18:59,560 --> 00:19:02,560 Speaker 4: people around them. Harry, I understand why when you when 425 00:19:02,600 --> 00:19:04,760 Speaker 4: you grow up entitled. When you grow up in a palace, 426 00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:07,560 Speaker 4: you have the best team in the world, but you 427 00:19:07,600 --> 00:19:10,200 Speaker 4: don't know that because you've never not had them. You 428 00:19:10,240 --> 00:19:12,280 Speaker 4: lose a good hairdresser and then you realize how good 429 00:19:12,280 --> 00:19:16,879 Speaker 4: they are. You don't know how good your nail salon 430 00:19:17,080 --> 00:19:20,320 Speaker 4: is until he or her quits. And that's what happened 431 00:19:20,320 --> 00:19:23,439 Speaker 4: with Harry. He just thought he could turn up and 432 00:19:23,480 --> 00:19:26,520 Speaker 4: whatever he touched would turn to gold, because that's what 433 00:19:26,600 --> 00:19:29,880 Speaker 4: happened his whole life. Without the infrastructure of the palace, 434 00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:33,280 Speaker 4: that's very, very difficult. So I have her love hate 435 00:19:33,520 --> 00:19:37,320 Speaker 4: with Meghan. I've met her several times. She's charming, she's funny, 436 00:19:37,680 --> 00:19:40,600 Speaker 4: she's witty, she's pushy, But so are a lot of 437 00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:43,200 Speaker 4: men like you know, so I don't want to fall 438 00:19:43,200 --> 00:19:46,840 Speaker 4: into that trap of just beating up Meghan. But even 439 00:19:47,240 --> 00:19:50,720 Speaker 4: me and the Ally, I'm like, oh, girl, did you 440 00:19:50,920 --> 00:19:55,600 Speaker 4: have like did you have of all the decisions? Like 441 00:19:55,680 --> 00:20:01,240 Speaker 4: the jam magnet? It was runny badly many you couldn't 442 00:20:01,359 --> 00:20:04,080 Speaker 4: order it. And then I bought my mom for Christmas 443 00:20:04,320 --> 00:20:06,919 Speaker 4: and Megan Candle it turned up and it didn't have 444 00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:07,520 Speaker 4: a wick in it. 445 00:20:07,760 --> 00:20:13,840 Speaker 5: Oh my god, I don't love Megan together. And when 446 00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:16,119 Speaker 5: you mess with people's money. It's fine if I'm just 447 00:20:16,200 --> 00:20:19,240 Speaker 5: giggling at you as a real housewife, but when I'm 448 00:20:19,240 --> 00:20:22,240 Speaker 5: buying your products, And the Kardashians know this better than anybody. 449 00:20:22,359 --> 00:20:25,200 Speaker 4: Their products are good. Karlie Jenner is a billionaire because 450 00:20:25,200 --> 00:20:29,080 Speaker 4: they're good. Jessica Simpson's billionaire because there's slutty shoes she 451 00:20:29,200 --> 00:20:35,000 Speaker 4: sells are fabulous, like the p So I just want Megan, like, 452 00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:39,199 Speaker 4: make it about the work. Do the work? Does that 453 00:20:39,280 --> 00:20:40,080 Speaker 4: answer sort of? 454 00:20:40,359 --> 00:20:42,520 Speaker 3: I mean, yeah, But then I want to know why 455 00:20:42,560 --> 00:20:44,639 Speaker 3: what's going on with the publicists? 456 00:20:44,680 --> 00:20:47,040 Speaker 2: Like why have they? I read the other day that 457 00:20:47,080 --> 00:20:47,679 Speaker 2: they it's. 458 00:20:47,520 --> 00:20:50,080 Speaker 4: Like the twelfth the twelfth run. Yeah, And then but. 459 00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:53,639 Speaker 3: Then they're also like they try to tell the publicists 460 00:20:53,640 --> 00:20:57,520 Speaker 3: what to do. So that's why the public what is happening. 461 00:20:57,760 --> 00:21:01,160 Speaker 4: It's very difficult to run a big business like markle Ink, 462 00:21:01,280 --> 00:21:06,960 Speaker 4: like Sussex Inc. Without learning that craft and not Harry. 463 00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:10,560 Speaker 4: But Meghan went from zero to one hundred on the 464 00:21:10,640 --> 00:21:14,359 Speaker 4: day she got married, and suddenly she was operating in 465 00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:18,640 Speaker 4: a capacity where she was in above her head, and 466 00:21:18,760 --> 00:21:22,240 Speaker 4: rather than listen and learn and figure out how to 467 00:21:22,280 --> 00:21:26,240 Speaker 4: do that, she turned away that advice and a lot 468 00:21:26,240 --> 00:21:29,240 Speaker 4: of people quit. But we were talking about this earlier 469 00:21:29,280 --> 00:21:32,240 Speaker 4: in the show. It's got to be a progression. I'm 470 00:21:32,280 --> 00:21:34,040 Speaker 4: good at what I do now because I was a 471 00:21:34,080 --> 00:21:37,280 Speaker 4: receptionist twenty years ago. Meghan I feel bad for because 472 00:21:37,280 --> 00:21:41,200 Speaker 4: she went from here to there. She went from just 473 00:21:41,280 --> 00:21:44,119 Speaker 4: being on a hit show. I raised my hat, tipped 474 00:21:44,119 --> 00:21:46,359 Speaker 4: my hat to her, but she went to having a 475 00:21:46,400 --> 00:21:48,879 Speaker 4: billion people watch her wedding. She went from that to 476 00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:51,320 Speaker 4: being on the cover of magazines. She wasn't prepared. A 477 00:21:51,320 --> 00:21:53,199 Speaker 4: good example of this is I used to work for 478 00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:58,399 Speaker 4: Ashley Simpson. Ashley's first ever live performance on television should 479 00:21:58,400 --> 00:22:01,440 Speaker 4: have been New York One. Should have been a local fair. 480 00:22:01,680 --> 00:22:04,360 Speaker 4: It should have been like just Taylor Swift learned her craft. 481 00:22:04,560 --> 00:22:07,400 Speaker 4: She was in Nashville, nobody was there. She played bar, 482 00:22:07,640 --> 00:22:10,240 Speaker 4: she played nightclubs. She learned how to be Taylor's I 483 00:22:10,560 --> 00:22:13,640 Speaker 4: used to work for Alicia Keys. Alicia Keys played every 484 00:22:13,960 --> 00:22:18,439 Speaker 4: crappy piano bar in the world. She played, but she learned, 485 00:22:18,480 --> 00:22:22,280 Speaker 4: she learned, She learned her craft. Megan Ashley Simpson didn't. 486 00:22:22,560 --> 00:22:25,639 Speaker 4: Her first TV appearance was SNL and we know you 487 00:22:25,760 --> 00:22:29,480 Speaker 4: were working and we know what happened. She should never 488 00:22:29,560 --> 00:22:31,639 Speaker 4: have done that show, and I was the one I said, no, 489 00:22:31,760 --> 00:22:34,600 Speaker 4: she should not. She shouldn't have done that show with Megan. 490 00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:36,920 Speaker 4: You can't say she shouldn't do it because she's such 491 00:22:36,960 --> 00:22:39,320 Speaker 4: a star now she's going to be just thrust into it. 492 00:22:39,359 --> 00:22:43,119 Speaker 4: But she's so ill prepared and she hasn't picked the 493 00:22:43,200 --> 00:22:45,600 Speaker 4: right people or she's not listening to the right people. 494 00:22:45,680 --> 00:22:48,520 Speaker 4: It's a skill everybody. If you hire, if you hire 495 00:22:48,520 --> 00:22:51,280 Speaker 4: an expert and then you design your own house, when 496 00:22:51,320 --> 00:22:54,040 Speaker 4: it falls down, you can't blame the architect, like you 497 00:22:54,080 --> 00:22:57,320 Speaker 4: know some people. I know what I don't know, and 498 00:22:57,600 --> 00:23:00,919 Speaker 4: I think that's a skill. Learn it. I don't know 499 00:23:00,960 --> 00:23:03,680 Speaker 4: how you learn it though, When when you're when you're 500 00:23:03,720 --> 00:23:05,160 Speaker 4: when you've got the spotlight on you. 501 00:23:05,280 --> 00:23:08,000 Speaker 1: So, if given the opportunity, would you be her publicist? 502 00:23:08,080 --> 00:23:10,720 Speaker 4: No, because I forget No, I'll get fired and lets 503 00:23:10,760 --> 00:23:12,560 Speaker 4: me no, I'm being kind here, and let's be honest. 504 00:23:12,800 --> 00:23:15,520 Speaker 4: There's clearly something that's difficult about them to work for. 505 00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:18,000 Speaker 4: We have friends, you know people, If you're on your 506 00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:20,440 Speaker 4: fifth assistant, if you're on your fifth publicist, if you're 507 00:23:20,480 --> 00:23:23,080 Speaker 4: on your fifth of our team, you're probably a mess. 508 00:23:23,440 --> 00:23:26,560 Speaker 4: And so like you are difficult, and so I get it. 509 00:23:26,600 --> 00:23:29,360 Speaker 4: They are difficult. They don't really know what they want. 510 00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:31,439 Speaker 4: And the reason they don't know what they want is 511 00:23:31,480 --> 00:23:33,680 Speaker 4: because they don't know who they are. My first book, 512 00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:36,880 Speaker 4: The Forward Answer, it really told people, if you want 513 00:23:36,880 --> 00:23:39,560 Speaker 4: to be successful, know who you are in forwards or less. 514 00:23:39,600 --> 00:23:43,359 Speaker 4: Who are you? I'm funny, I'm naughty, I'm nice, I'm gay. 515 00:23:43,520 --> 00:23:46,560 Speaker 4: Like pick your words. And if I said to Megan, 516 00:23:46,760 --> 00:23:49,320 Speaker 4: who are you? In four words? Shore and have a clue, 517 00:23:50,560 --> 00:23:52,760 Speaker 4: look in the mirror tonight, like everybody listening, look in 518 00:23:52,760 --> 00:23:54,440 Speaker 4: the mirror when you clean your teeth, and say who 519 00:23:54,440 --> 00:23:56,120 Speaker 4: am I in four words? And then write them down 520 00:23:56,119 --> 00:23:58,560 Speaker 4: on a poster and stick them on your mirror. And 521 00:23:58,600 --> 00:24:01,359 Speaker 4: then every opportunity that comes through your life, if he 522 00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:03,240 Speaker 4: doesn't match three of the four words. 523 00:24:02,880 --> 00:24:18,960 Speaker 1: Pass WHOA. That is really good advice. I have another question, please, 524 00:24:19,320 --> 00:24:21,960 Speaker 1: I want you to ask all the questions. 525 00:24:22,280 --> 00:24:24,600 Speaker 3: I really were you working for Alicia Keys when she 526 00:24:24,640 --> 00:24:26,360 Speaker 3: decided to ruin that man's marriage? 527 00:24:26,600 --> 00:24:26,760 Speaker 4: Oh? 528 00:24:27,760 --> 00:24:31,600 Speaker 3: Because this is something and the reason why. Okay, I 529 00:24:31,640 --> 00:24:34,119 Speaker 3: know a lot of homeworkers. I know a lot of 530 00:24:34,200 --> 00:24:37,600 Speaker 3: people who have ended up falling in love with people 531 00:24:37,680 --> 00:24:41,080 Speaker 3: who were in complicated relationships, let's put it like that, 532 00:24:41,200 --> 00:24:45,520 Speaker 3: or relationships that were ending. None of them have so 533 00:24:45,760 --> 00:24:52,800 Speaker 3: publicly try to portray themself as a woman empowerment leader. 534 00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:56,880 Speaker 3: Remember she was like helping women in Africa while stealing 535 00:24:56,920 --> 00:25:01,440 Speaker 3: somebody's husband. And then when it came that this was happening, 536 00:25:02,080 --> 00:25:07,080 Speaker 3: she was quiet. And then Swiss Beat's ex wife, who 537 00:25:07,080 --> 00:25:08,080 Speaker 3: now they're all besties. 538 00:25:08,119 --> 00:25:09,040 Speaker 2: I love that for them. 539 00:25:09,080 --> 00:25:13,160 Speaker 3: But when Mashanda decided that she couldn't take it anymore 540 00:25:13,160 --> 00:25:16,640 Speaker 3: and she decided to go on at on Twitter, Alicia 541 00:25:16,760 --> 00:25:20,760 Speaker 3: was quiet, and I'm like, you're a woman who wants 542 00:25:20,840 --> 00:25:23,720 Speaker 3: to empower women. What's going on now? So for that, 543 00:25:23,920 --> 00:25:26,239 Speaker 3: she's never been forgiven. I feel like her voice has 544 00:25:26,280 --> 00:25:27,680 Speaker 3: even taken a hit because of it. 545 00:25:28,760 --> 00:25:29,240 Speaker 1: She is. 546 00:25:29,359 --> 00:25:30,679 Speaker 2: She grinds my gears. 547 00:25:30,960 --> 00:25:34,000 Speaker 4: I can hear it, I can hear it. But for it, 548 00:25:34,160 --> 00:25:38,359 Speaker 4: I think it's because it touches you, because it's something 549 00:25:38,359 --> 00:25:40,720 Speaker 4: that could potentially happen in your own life. That the 550 00:25:40,760 --> 00:25:46,360 Speaker 4: best stories, the biggest stories I break are divorces or weddings, 551 00:25:46,359 --> 00:25:48,560 Speaker 4: are births of funerals, which is the same in your 552 00:25:48,600 --> 00:25:50,600 Speaker 4: regular life. If a friend has a baby, you want 553 00:25:50,600 --> 00:25:52,640 Speaker 4: to see the pictures. If a friend gets married, you're 554 00:25:52,680 --> 00:25:55,640 Speaker 4: really excited. I always get a spike in traffic when 555 00:25:55,640 --> 00:25:59,280 Speaker 4: these really human stories come about, and that there's something 556 00:25:59,280 --> 00:26:02,080 Speaker 4: about betraying that touches all of us because we've all 557 00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:04,000 Speaker 4: been betrayed, and we've always we've all got a friend 558 00:26:04,200 --> 00:26:06,200 Speaker 4: that has been betrayed. I broke the Hugh j Ackman 559 00:26:06,320 --> 00:26:09,399 Speaker 4: story dating Sutton Foster, and it was a really tough 560 00:26:09,400 --> 00:26:10,960 Speaker 4: story to me because I know dead but the wife 561 00:26:10,960 --> 00:26:13,719 Speaker 4: a little bit and they've been together thirty years. And 562 00:26:13,800 --> 00:26:16,600 Speaker 4: I get it. We're allowed to fall in and out 563 00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:18,719 Speaker 4: of love with people, but don't be messy. 564 00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:19,119 Speaker 3: Now. 565 00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:22,080 Speaker 4: You don't have to be cruel, like you can't divorce happens. 566 00:26:22,119 --> 00:26:25,600 Speaker 4: I'm not Pollyanna, I'm not naive. I get it couples 567 00:26:25,640 --> 00:26:29,480 Speaker 4: fall apart, but I hate the messiness. Ariana Grande with 568 00:26:29,600 --> 00:26:32,840 Speaker 4: Ethan Slater. That time line is very fuzzy. Brad and 569 00:26:32,880 --> 00:26:36,760 Speaker 4: Angelina insist that they didn't get together until after Jen, 570 00:26:37,119 --> 00:26:40,520 Speaker 4: but that's a very fuzzy timeline. So these celebrities who 571 00:26:40,640 --> 00:26:43,159 Speaker 4: think that we don't have a calendar or a Google 572 00:26:43,280 --> 00:26:47,119 Speaker 4: search are so crazy. We see what you're up to. 573 00:26:47,320 --> 00:26:49,480 Speaker 4: You're allowed to fall in love. You're allowed to fall 574 00:26:49,520 --> 00:26:53,399 Speaker 4: out of love, but don't be sloppy or cruel about it. 575 00:26:53,440 --> 00:26:56,360 Speaker 4: And there was a cruelness I think to Julia Roberts, 576 00:26:56,560 --> 00:26:58,600 Speaker 4: her husband was married, he was a camera man on 577 00:26:58,680 --> 00:27:01,760 Speaker 4: Julia's movie, and she and like, how can you compete 578 00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:04,639 Speaker 4: with Julia Roberts. If my husband made a movie with 579 00:27:04,760 --> 00:27:08,200 Speaker 4: Julia Robbers, I'd lose him to and he's gay. It's 580 00:27:08,280 --> 00:27:11,520 Speaker 4: just it's like, it's unfairness to it. I think you're right, though, 581 00:27:11,560 --> 00:27:14,080 Speaker 4: I think Alisha didn't handle this well. She didn't get 582 00:27:14,080 --> 00:27:17,440 Speaker 4: in front of it, and ultimately too. We talk about publicists, 583 00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:20,840 Speaker 4: we talk about managers like they have a magic wand 584 00:27:21,240 --> 00:27:24,359 Speaker 4: if you do something shitty, if you do something bad, 585 00:27:24,840 --> 00:27:27,400 Speaker 4: you did it like, thank you, you did it. 586 00:27:27,840 --> 00:27:30,399 Speaker 1: Okay. So from a publicist perspective, because I say this 587 00:27:30,440 --> 00:27:34,439 Speaker 1: all the time, I understand people are going to suck up. 588 00:27:34,480 --> 00:27:38,120 Speaker 1: It happened, happens, we all do it. I don't understand 589 00:27:38,400 --> 00:27:40,800 Speaker 1: when pr people sweep in to try and make it 590 00:27:40,840 --> 00:27:43,160 Speaker 1: look like something that it wasn't. What is the problem 591 00:27:43,200 --> 00:27:45,840 Speaker 1: behind being like, yeah, fucked up, I'm so sorry. 592 00:27:45,960 --> 00:27:49,080 Speaker 4: The troubles been really briefely honest. Here is I can't 593 00:27:49,160 --> 00:27:51,159 Speaker 4: charge you ten thousand dollars a month for that advice. 594 00:27:51,280 --> 00:27:54,639 Speaker 4: You might. It's a business and you have to follow 595 00:27:54,640 --> 00:27:58,439 Speaker 4: the money. And often we see businesses that thrive in 596 00:27:58,520 --> 00:28:01,640 Speaker 4: drama and crisis. Pr only exists if there's a crisis. 597 00:28:01,720 --> 00:28:04,560 Speaker 4: They don't create the crisis. But sometimes I question the 598 00:28:04,560 --> 00:28:07,159 Speaker 4: advice they're giving. My advice always to my clients, and 599 00:28:07,640 --> 00:28:10,359 Speaker 4: the agencies I worked with probably were annoyed with me 600 00:28:10,400 --> 00:28:13,080 Speaker 4: because I was like, own it, right. You wouldn't put 601 00:28:13,080 --> 00:28:14,840 Speaker 4: me on retain if I said, if I've got to 602 00:28:14,840 --> 00:28:17,240 Speaker 4: be on retainer for a year, I'm not doing a 603 00:28:17,240 --> 00:28:20,040 Speaker 4: really good job. Own it. You messed up, you did 604 00:28:20,040 --> 00:28:21,960 Speaker 4: something bad. But it's the same in my life and 605 00:28:22,040 --> 00:28:24,680 Speaker 4: your life. We all do bad things. Like I try 606 00:28:24,680 --> 00:28:27,400 Speaker 4: not to judge myself on my worst day, but we've 607 00:28:27,400 --> 00:28:30,560 Speaker 4: all had horrible days. I own it, and I say sorry. 608 00:28:30,640 --> 00:28:33,200 Speaker 4: Sorry is so important. I know in this political climate 609 00:28:33,480 --> 00:28:36,560 Speaker 4: were taught not to say sorry. I don't buy that 610 00:28:36,600 --> 00:28:40,400 Speaker 4: in the long run, if you do something and you didn't, 611 00:28:40,640 --> 00:28:42,520 Speaker 4: you didn't mean it, and you know it was bad 612 00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:45,880 Speaker 4: and we all know the truth, say sorry, own it. 613 00:28:46,040 --> 00:28:49,240 Speaker 4: I own my mistakes, and I wish more celebrities. I 614 00:28:49,280 --> 00:28:52,320 Speaker 4: wish more friends, I wish more colleagues. I wish they 615 00:28:52,400 --> 00:28:55,880 Speaker 4: owned it. They don't. It's that's that Elton John song 616 00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:59,680 Speaker 4: I love. Sorry is the hardest word. It's really hard 617 00:29:00,200 --> 00:29:03,240 Speaker 4: for some people to say sorry. Don't be one of 618 00:29:03,240 --> 00:29:03,760 Speaker 4: those people. 619 00:29:03,880 --> 00:29:05,640 Speaker 1: I don't think I would ever be one of those people. 620 00:29:05,640 --> 00:29:08,239 Speaker 1: I think my publicist will probably hate me because I 621 00:29:08,280 --> 00:29:10,560 Speaker 1: would just, like we were just talking about, I think 622 00:29:10,560 --> 00:29:12,000 Speaker 1: I would just be the person that'd be like, shit, 623 00:29:12,240 --> 00:29:12,800 Speaker 1: yeah I. 624 00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:16,040 Speaker 4: Did do that kind of that. I know. I know 625 00:29:16,240 --> 00:29:18,440 Speaker 4: I can spin myself. I'm good at like, oh, well, 626 00:29:18,480 --> 00:29:19,800 Speaker 4: they deserved it. On line said. 627 00:29:21,280 --> 00:29:21,960 Speaker 1: They deserved that. 628 00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:26,400 Speaker 4: I didn't want to do that as forced into this decision. No, 629 00:29:26,760 --> 00:29:30,280 Speaker 4: you weren't. You made your choice, and leader, if you're listening, glolo, 630 00:29:30,440 --> 00:29:32,720 Speaker 4: if you're listening, you made your choice. And we all know. 631 00:29:33,200 --> 00:29:36,680 Speaker 4: The thing is, though, I think I might be wrong here. 632 00:29:37,000 --> 00:29:41,200 Speaker 4: Had Alisha said sorry, had Alisha admitted that she broke 633 00:29:41,360 --> 00:29:44,280 Speaker 4: the girl code, you you might still listen to her 634 00:29:44,320 --> 00:29:46,520 Speaker 4: music today. There's a chance you might have forgiven her. 635 00:29:46,640 --> 00:29:49,600 Speaker 4: But because she didn't, you're done and there's no going 636 00:29:49,680 --> 00:29:52,320 Speaker 4: back now. And so learn that in life, we're not 637 00:29:52,360 --> 00:29:56,280 Speaker 4: all Alicia Key is, but we all make mistakes. Say sorry. 638 00:29:56,480 --> 00:29:58,880 Speaker 4: I'm the king of sorry. I sometimes they say sorry 639 00:29:58,880 --> 00:30:02,320 Speaker 4: when I just see people walking up something terrible, like 640 00:30:02,440 --> 00:30:04,560 Speaker 4: I know, like because of what I do for a living. 641 00:30:04,600 --> 00:30:05,920 Speaker 4: If I'm not in a restaurant and I see a 642 00:30:05,960 --> 00:30:08,360 Speaker 4: high sife, I'm like, oh, this could get me the 643 00:30:08,360 --> 00:30:10,400 Speaker 4: way they could throw a drink at me, like I 644 00:30:10,400 --> 00:30:13,160 Speaker 4: don't know what I've said, I don't remember what I've said, 645 00:30:13,760 --> 00:30:16,880 Speaker 4: but they're coming towards me.

And I don't 661 00:30:52,320 --> 00:30:54,400 Speaker 3: think that you should ever let a man or whoever 662 00:30:54,480 --> 00:30:57,040 Speaker 3: that person is, who left the relationship make. 663 00:30:57,000 --> 00:31:00,000 Speaker 2: You look like the man Yang because there is fifty fifty. 664 00:31:00,840 --> 00:31:04,400 Speaker 2: But the fact that you literally. 665 00:31:04,400 --> 00:31:07,800 Speaker 3: Preached woman empowerment before a lot of people were you weren't. 666 00:31:07,840 --> 00:31:12,640 Speaker 3: She was like the face of woman wearing makeup that 667 00:31:12,800 --> 00:31:13,920 Speaker 3: was a lie was. 668 00:31:16,600 --> 00:31:19,480 Speaker 4: Lighted. I think you hate it on something so so important. 669 00:31:19,560 --> 00:31:21,920 Speaker 4: Here it's the phoniness of it. And that's what hurt 670 00:31:21,920 --> 00:31:24,200 Speaker 4: about Ellen. We all knew in the business that Ellen 671 00:31:24,320 --> 00:31:26,959 Speaker 4: was not a pleasant person. Ellen's a very difficult person. 672 00:31:27,560 --> 00:31:29,640 Speaker 4: And there's a lot of very difficult celebrities out there, 673 00:31:29,680 --> 00:31:34,840 Speaker 4: Andy Cohen, there's a lot really do gold people, but 674 00:31:35,040 --> 00:31:42,280 Speaker 4: nobody pushed kindness more than Ellen, And don't do it 675 00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:46,400 Speaker 4: like be authentic, be the best version of yourself, but 676 00:31:46,720 --> 00:31:49,680 Speaker 4: be yourself. If you're a bit moody, you should be 677 00:31:49,680 --> 00:31:52,240 Speaker 4: a moody celebrity. If you're funny, you should be a 678 00:31:52,240 --> 00:31:55,280 Speaker 4: funny celebrity. If you're critical, you should be the villain. 679 00:31:55,480 --> 00:32:01,200 Speaker 4: Like you play your role, you play your role. And 680 00:32:01,240 --> 00:32:03,920 Speaker 4: so that's what I think annoyed you the most about Elisha, 681 00:32:03,960 --> 00:32:06,320 Speaker 4: And what annoyed me about Ellen is I just hate 682 00:32:06,400 --> 00:32:09,200 Speaker 4: Phone's like that there's a place in this world goodness 683 00:32:09,200 --> 00:32:11,760 Speaker 4: knows when you see on reality shows. Er Morosa made 684 00:32:11,800 --> 00:32:14,360 Speaker 4: a lot of money being the villain on The Apprentice, 685 00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:17,040 Speaker 4: and she was really good at it because it was true. 686 00:32:17,600 --> 00:32:20,280 Speaker 4: I have no time now for celebrities that pretend to 687 00:32:20,280 --> 00:32:20,960 Speaker 4: be something they're not. 688 00:32:21,600 --> 00:32:24,520 Speaker 1: It's kind of tough though, because everybody says like, oh, 689 00:32:24,560 --> 00:32:26,560 Speaker 1: you have to build a brand, and with a brand 690 00:32:26,640 --> 00:32:29,440 Speaker 1: comes a personality type, right, and then we expect that 691 00:32:29,480 --> 00:32:31,440 Speaker 1: personality type from that person all the time because that's 692 00:32:31,480 --> 00:32:34,040 Speaker 1: a brand, when in reality they are human. So is 693 00:32:34,080 --> 00:32:36,320 Speaker 1: there a chance you know this obviously far better than me. 694 00:32:37,200 --> 00:32:39,400 Speaker 1: Is there a chance that Ellen did do a lot 695 00:32:39,480 --> 00:32:41,960 Speaker 1: of kind things, but when it came to her professional 696 00:32:42,040 --> 00:32:44,800 Speaker 1: show and getting stuff done, she was a tyrant about 697 00:32:44,800 --> 00:32:47,080 Speaker 1: doing it or her to do the nice things. 698 00:32:47,280 --> 00:32:49,120 Speaker 4: Yes, she would argue, Yes, she would say, I gave 699 00:32:49,120 --> 00:32:50,640 Speaker 4: a lot of money to charity, but. 700 00:32:50,600 --> 00:32:51,920 Speaker 1: I think that doesn't make you a kind person. 701 00:32:51,960 --> 00:32:53,560 Speaker 4: The nice thing is what you do to people every day, 702 00:32:53,800 --> 00:32:56,160 Speaker 4: like that's who you are. It's the small gestures. If 703 00:32:56,200 --> 00:32:58,040 Speaker 4: I write a check to a charity doesn't make me 704 00:32:58,040 --> 00:32:59,520 Speaker 4: a nice guy. It makes me a guy that gave 705 00:32:59,520 --> 00:33:03,440 Speaker 4: a great check to a charity. Kindness exactly. Say that again, 706 00:33:03,480 --> 00:33:04,720 Speaker 4: that was really smart. 707 00:33:04,400 --> 00:33:06,560 Speaker 1: Generosity and kindness are very different saying. 708 00:33:06,400 --> 00:33:08,480 Speaker 4: Read that should be the title of your book. I 709 00:33:08,480 --> 00:33:09,320 Speaker 4: could sell that. 710 00:33:09,280 --> 00:33:10,520 Speaker 1: Or would we give it away for free? 711 00:33:11,800 --> 00:33:16,440 Speaker 4: No no, no, no, diamond about twenty percent fronts to 712 00:33:16,520 --> 00:33:20,400 Speaker 4: get it. It's a small decision to make every single 713 00:33:20,480 --> 00:33:23,040 Speaker 4: day that make you who you are. It's not those big, 714 00:33:23,120 --> 00:33:26,760 Speaker 4: glamorous moments. And celebrities are people that they're regular people 715 00:33:26,920 --> 00:33:28,760 Speaker 4: and it's the decisions they make every single day. 716 00:33:28,840 --> 00:33:29,960 Speaker 1: So she was just a big old bitch. 717 00:33:30,120 --> 00:33:31,440 Speaker 4: She was not a very nice person. 718 00:33:32,280 --> 00:33:34,440 Speaker 1: Who do you think in the celebrity world right now 719 00:33:34,840 --> 00:33:36,960 Speaker 1: needs pr more than anyone else. 720 00:33:37,000 --> 00:33:39,200 Speaker 4: I think Bethany Frankle just needs to be like, just 721 00:33:39,280 --> 00:33:42,680 Speaker 4: shut up.

And the reason it is so 744 00:34:42,760 --> 00:34:47,640 Speaker 4: good is that they don't really allow managers or publicy. 745 00:34:47,640 --> 00:34:50,840 Speaker 4: It's a small room. So the Oscars, everybody gets a ticket. Here, 746 00:34:50,880 --> 00:34:52,319 Speaker 4: you don't get a ticket, and you have to show 747 00:34:52,360 --> 00:34:54,800 Speaker 4: your ticket.

I 818 00:38:13,080 --> 00:38:14,600 Speaker 4: think Bethanie needs some help, and I think it because 819 00:38:14,600 --> 00:38:16,799 Speaker 4: she hasn't figured out who she is and firing off 820 00:38:17,160 --> 00:38:20,640 Speaker 4: twelve tiktoks a day, It's just overwhelmed me, like I 821 00:38:20,680 --> 00:38:23,160 Speaker 4: would have to block her, Like it's just like every 822 00:38:23,200 --> 00:38:26,920 Speaker 4: and she's always so outraged.

No, 824 00:38:30,120 --> 00:38:34,839 Speaker 4: everything is four outrage exhausting. So I think Bethanie needs 825 00:38:34,840 --> 00:38:37,879 Speaker 4: a little bit of help. And I think Reality Star 826 00:38:37,920 --> 00:38:39,680 Speaker 4: US in general, this is going to be a tricky 827 00:38:39,719 --> 00:38:43,040 Speaker 4: year because their shows are not what they were.

And I feel like all the new 836 00:39:05,880 --> 00:39:07,680 Speaker 4: people who are signing up, A couple of people I 837 00:39:07,760 --> 00:39:10,359 Speaker 4: know are auditioning right now to be on the New 838 00:39:10,440 --> 00:39:13,080 Speaker 4: New York Housewives that they're recasting the New York one, 839 00:39:13,560 --> 00:39:16,960 Speaker 4: and they're all trying to be the new Bethany or 840 00:39:16,960 --> 00:39:19,880 Speaker 4: the new and I was like, be you.

And so Nini was really on his 858 00:40:07,360 --> 00:40:10,240 Speaker 4: shit list and told Bethany tried to burn that Bravo 859 00:40:10,640 --> 00:40:12,600 Speaker 4: And so now all these people that he didn't like 860 00:40:12,800 --> 00:40:14,959 Speaker 4: now were like Oh, they're not so bad, so. 861 00:40:15,280 --> 00:40:17,839 Speaker 1: Real quickly on that what did they both do to Andy? 862 00:40:17,880 --> 00:40:18,400 Speaker 1: I don't know this. 863 00:40:18,440 --> 00:40:21,080 Speaker 4: Struggle being accus him. I think of drugs, of cocaine, 864 00:40:21,120 --> 00:40:25,160 Speaker 4: of being a sloppy boss, Bethany, racism and racism she 865 00:40:25,840 --> 00:40:28,680 Speaker 4: said yes, she said and so, and then Bethany tried 866 00:40:28,680 --> 00:40:31,120 Speaker 4: to burn down Brava. She tried to get lawyers involved, 867 00:40:31,480 --> 00:40:33,279 Speaker 4: and she wanted to be victuals. She said it was 868 00:40:33,320 --> 00:40:36,240 Speaker 4: like an exploitive environment, and she threatened stuff on tiktop 869 00:40:36,239 --> 00:40:38,520 Speaker 4: that she never followed through, but the threat was enough. 870 00:40:39,040 --> 00:40:41,400 Speaker 4: And it's like, wouldn't you bite the hand that feeds you? 871 00:40:41,120 --> 00:40:44,040 Speaker 4: You don't go back.

It's 875 00:40:51,320 --> 00:40:54,440 Speaker 4: interesting because a really senior person at Bravo said to me, 876 00:40:54,760 --> 00:40:58,560 Speaker 4: what makes Bethany such great reality TV also makes her 877 00:40:58,600 --> 00:41:03,160 Speaker 4: just a terrible person, Like it's just what is fabulous? 878 00:41:03,480 --> 00:41:07,400 Speaker 4: What is fabulous on television?

If 886 00:41:23,280 --> 00:41:27,359 Speaker 4: you reward people for bad behavior, then they'll keep being bad. 887 00:41:27,880 --> 00:41:32,120 Speaker 4: Who's naughty to me?

Yeah, it's like he was three names 946 00:44:36,719 --> 00:44:39,040 Speaker 4: in like it definitely. I don't quite remember what name 947 00:44:39,080 --> 00:44:40,920 Speaker 4: I left on, but it was definitely a couple of 948 00:44:40,960 --> 00:44:44,520 Speaker 4: names in. But it wasn't what it was now. And 949 00:44:44,600 --> 00:44:47,120 Speaker 4: so I think you see people change. I saw it 950 00:44:47,160 --> 00:44:49,279 Speaker 4: in just the few years I was with him. He 951 00:44:49,480 --> 00:44:52,400 Speaker 4: he changed, and then he got entitled, and then he 952 00:44:52,440 --> 00:44:55,879 Speaker 4: got psychotic. And now he's in jail. I'm glad he's there. 953 00:44:56,040 --> 00:44:57,640 Speaker 1: Is there anything going on with that right now? 954 00:44:57,880 --> 00:45:00,920 Speaker 4: He's going to have a big comeback tour, Like I know, 955 00:45:01,000 --> 00:45:03,000 Speaker 4: it's amazing that this might make him. When I was 956 00:45:03,000 --> 00:45:06,239 Speaker 4: with Diddy, he's Achilles heel. And what he didn't like 957 00:45:06,840 --> 00:45:11,040 Speaker 4: is that he really wasn't street. He was a guy 958 00:45:11,120 --> 00:45:14,200 Speaker 4: from a kind of a middle class upbringing. He was 959 00:45:14,239 --> 00:45:18,360 Speaker 4: well educated, and so he was always intimidated by the 960 00:45:18,440 --> 00:45:21,800 Speaker 4: rappers out there who were more authentic. And to be honest, 961 00:45:21,800 --> 00:45:23,520 Speaker 4: the rap community thought did he was a bit of 962 00:45:23,560 --> 00:45:26,720 Speaker 4: a pussy. They thought he was all just make believe, 963 00:45:26,800 --> 00:45:30,880 Speaker 4: he was all hype. Now he gone to jail, he 964 00:45:30,960 --> 00:45:34,560 Speaker 4: now can say he the real I think did he 965 00:45:34,600 --> 00:45:37,799 Speaker 4: will be planning a comeback, I'm told already there's talk 966 00:45:37,840 --> 00:45:40,120 Speaker 4: about a show at the Garden. He will come out. 967 00:45:40,280 --> 00:45:42,320 Speaker 4: He has got hours and hours of video when he 968 00:45:42,360 --> 00:45:44,800 Speaker 4: worked with did He. There is just footage his camera 969 00:45:44,840 --> 00:45:48,799 Speaker 4: crews with you, clearly, clearly, clear, with you constantly. So 970 00:45:48,840 --> 00:45:51,200 Speaker 4: I think there's a place for him now. And it's 971 00:45:51,239 --> 00:45:53,640 Speaker 4: a shame of American culture, but he'll end up on 972 00:45:53,840 --> 00:45:59,480 Speaker 4: Rava with the bad behavior is rewarded in America. It 973 00:45:59,560 --> 00:46:01,600 Speaker 4: really is, like it really is when you think of 974 00:46:01,640 --> 00:46:02,399 Speaker 4: some of the people at. 975 00:46:02,280 --> 00:46:04,440 Speaker 1: There, like our president really did people get. 976 00:46:04,239 --> 00:46:07,200 Speaker 4: Away with stuff? And so I think there's a future 977 00:46:07,239 --> 00:46:09,640 Speaker 4: for did Hey. I know, and there's people out there 978 00:46:09,680 --> 00:46:12,400 Speaker 4: that I went down to the courthouse during the trial. 979 00:46:12,680 --> 00:46:15,200 Speaker 4: I've never I hadn't seen this passion for him in 980 00:46:15,280 --> 00:46:16,359 Speaker 4: twenty years. 981 00:46:16,640 --> 00:46:17,640 Speaker 1: And find that bizarre. 982 00:46:17,760 --> 00:46:19,920 Speaker 4: But I think it wasn't about him. It was about 983 00:46:19,920 --> 00:46:22,600 Speaker 4: a person of color beating the system or being tied 984 00:46:22,680 --> 00:46:24,880 Speaker 4: up in a system. And I understand that narrative, and 985 00:46:25,120 --> 00:46:27,360 Speaker 4: it's there's a lot of truth to that narrative. He 986 00:46:27,520 --> 00:46:30,960 Speaker 4: was the wrong messenger, but but there is like hear 987 00:46:31,160 --> 00:46:32,880 Speaker 4: I was like all a lot of him, but I 988 00:46:32,920 --> 00:46:35,640 Speaker 4: was like, the story is a great story, really dead 989 00:46:35,719 --> 00:46:38,120 Speaker 4: that we don't need him, but we don't need him. 990 00:46:38,000 --> 00:46:41,160 Speaker 1: And he's good, but the characters that are not so. 991 00:46:41,200 --> 00:46:43,920 Speaker 4: Great, right, So I think Denny's gonna have come back. 992 00:46:44,000 --> 00:46:46,560 Speaker 4: Jessica Simpson's trying to come back, but I think that 993 00:46:46,560 --> 00:46:49,799 Speaker 4: that ship has sailed, you know, is it okay? It's 994 00:46:49,840 --> 00:46:51,920 Speaker 4: just that level of thing, you know, God bless Jennifer 995 00:46:52,040 --> 00:46:54,600 Speaker 4: j Lo. She'll never stop. I just I saw her 996 00:46:54,640 --> 00:46:57,080 Speaker 4: at the Golden Globes in that dress, and I just 997 00:46:57,480 --> 00:47:00,880 Speaker 4: I love her. I just she is our fall on 998 00:47:00,960 --> 00:47:03,680 Speaker 4: drag queen. And she would say to herself, it is 999 00:47:04,040 --> 00:47:07,560 Speaker 4: ruble is She's just the year that I went with 1000 00:47:07,600 --> 00:47:09,600 Speaker 4: her to the Golden Globe she looked as ridiculous in 1001 00:47:09,640 --> 00:47:12,239 Speaker 4: the fabulous way. She's like Jessica Rabbit. She looked like 1002 00:47:12,320 --> 00:47:13,880 Speaker 4: just so. And she got out the car and I 1003 00:47:13,960 --> 00:47:16,480 Speaker 4: did chuckle. I was like, oh gosh, and we brought 1004 00:47:16,480 --> 00:47:19,200 Speaker 4: down the carpet and everybody went nuts except the other 1005 00:47:19,239 --> 00:47:22,160 Speaker 4: celebrities who didn't really like her. Oh and they were 1006 00:47:22,160 --> 00:47:25,000 Speaker 4: all a bit mean to her. And Jennifer's spoken about this. 1007 00:47:25,120 --> 00:47:27,680 Speaker 4: She's like, they don't really like me. They look down 1008 00:47:27,719 --> 00:47:29,760 Speaker 4: their nose in the same way that the movie stars 1009 00:47:29,760 --> 00:47:32,040 Speaker 4: look down their nose at TV stars, and TV stars 1010 00:47:32,080 --> 00:47:34,440 Speaker 4: look down their nose at reality stars, they sort of 1011 00:47:34,440 --> 00:47:35,880 Speaker 4: look down their nose a little bit at jay Loo. 1012 00:47:35,960 --> 00:47:37,440 Speaker 4: And what I learned from Jennifer, and it's such a 1013 00:47:37,440 --> 00:47:40,640 Speaker 4: good lesson, is screw them. I'm Jayla. She doesn't care. 1014 00:47:40,960 --> 00:47:42,040 Speaker 1: Why do they look down on her? 1015 00:47:42,120 --> 00:47:47,759 Speaker 4: I think I think that she's so theatrical, She's so confident. 1016 00:47:48,200 --> 00:47:51,480 Speaker 4: She makes them feel very vulnerable in her sexuality, like 1017 00:47:51,520 --> 00:47:54,520 Speaker 4: the boobs and the hips, and you know before before 1018 00:47:54,600 --> 00:47:57,240 Speaker 4: Kim people, Kim Kardashian people were not doing this. Julia 1019 00:47:57,320 --> 00:47:59,279 Speaker 4: Robins did not do that. Meryl Street Plane doing that, 1020 00:48:00,480 --> 00:48:04,120 Speaker 4: like Jennifer turns up as a full on theatrical production, 1021 00:48:04,480 --> 00:48:06,200 Speaker 4: and I think that bugs them. I also think too 1022 00:48:06,560 --> 00:48:11,040 Speaker 4: there's questions about her talent versus her success, and her 1023 00:48:11,080 --> 00:48:14,200 Speaker 4: success is so large, and I think these actors that 1024 00:48:14,239 --> 00:48:17,200 Speaker 4: went to Julia hard and went to training in classical 1025 00:48:17,520 --> 00:48:19,319 Speaker 4: environments and probably there's a bit of jealousy there. There's 1026 00:48:19,320 --> 00:48:20,000 Speaker 4: a bit of jealousy. 1027 00:48:20,080 --> 00:48:21,560 Speaker 1: I can see that. I mean, I think that she 1028 00:48:21,680 --> 00:48:25,600 Speaker 1: is very much a testament to hard work WORRD. She 1029 00:48:25,680 --> 00:48:27,640 Speaker 1: looks amazing every day. 1030 00:48:28,040 --> 00:48:30,520 Speaker 4: Christmas Day, like she's beautiful to begin with, assuming, but 1031 00:48:30,719 --> 00:48:33,040 Speaker 4: she I went to the gym with her once. What 1032 00:48:33,200 --> 00:48:39,160 Speaker 4: a mistake. After twenty minutes on that rowing machine, I 1033 00:48:39,280 --> 00:48:41,600 Speaker 4: was ready for Margaritea. 1034 00:48:44,160 --> 00:48:46,319 Speaker 1: Despite the fact that she puts in the work talent wise, 1035 00:48:46,360 --> 00:48:47,560 Speaker 1: I could see why some people. 1036 00:48:47,520 --> 00:48:51,160 Speaker 4: Be modest talent like her talent is being Jennifer Like. 1037 00:48:51,400 --> 00:48:54,400 Speaker 4: What she's done is she's created a character of Jlo 1038 00:48:54,520 --> 00:48:56,759 Speaker 4: that is far more interesting than any character she'll ever 1039 00:48:56,760 --> 00:48:59,400 Speaker 4: play on a film, and so that bugs them, and 1040 00:48:59,400 --> 00:48:59,799 Speaker 4: that's why. 1041 00:48:59,680 --> 00:49:01,200 Speaker 1: It was a banger. 1042 00:49:01,560 --> 00:49:04,600 Speaker 4: I loved it, and that's why it's difficult to like 1043 00:49:05,160 --> 00:49:08,440 Speaker 4: to really go and see a JLO movie and believe 1044 00:49:08,440 --> 00:49:10,920 Speaker 4: you're watching anybody but Jaylo. Like the movies that work 1045 00:49:10,960 --> 00:49:13,680 Speaker 4: best for Jennifer made in Manhattans when you see when 1046 00:49:13,719 --> 00:49:16,439 Speaker 4: you see Jennifer in the character like because then then 1047 00:49:16,600 --> 00:49:19,040 Speaker 4: then it makes sense. But it's like it's like Madonna, 1048 00:49:19,040 --> 00:49:21,719 Speaker 4: and Madonna's way more interesting than any character she's ever 1049 00:49:21,760 --> 00:49:23,919 Speaker 4: going to play, and so it's hard to look past them. 1050 00:49:24,160 --> 00:49:27,000 Speaker 4: So I get it. I get why Jennifer annoys them, 1051 00:49:27,200 --> 00:49:29,879 Speaker 4: and I love that she's in another joke. Like Jennifer said, 1052 00:49:30,560 --> 00:49:33,000 Speaker 4: a lot of those Hollywood people take themselves so seriously. 1053 00:49:34,200 --> 00:49:35,640 Speaker 1: We've had her in here a few times. She takes 1054 00:49:35,640 --> 00:49:37,960 Speaker 1: her soul seriously. At least when she was in here, 1055 00:49:38,040 --> 00:49:39,240 Speaker 1: she took herself very seriously. 1056 00:49:39,840 --> 00:49:43,160 Speaker 4: I like work seriously. But yeah, they've all come through here, 1057 00:49:43,200 --> 00:49:43,680 Speaker 4: they've all come. 1058 00:49:43,800 --> 00:49:45,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, they really have. I haven't been here for a 1059 00:49:45,520 --> 00:49:47,279 Speaker 1: lot of it, but I love picking your brain about 1060 00:49:47,320 --> 00:49:52,040 Speaker 1: your favorites. So, Jennifer Lope has one of your great. 1061 00:49:50,960 --> 00:49:53,239 Speaker 4: Spade changed my life. I was Kate Spade's publicist. Makes 1062 00:49:53,280 --> 00:49:56,920 Speaker 4: you rest in peace and just quality and smart and decent, 1063 00:49:57,040 --> 00:49:59,359 Speaker 4: and she'ld say thank you notes. And she taught me 1064 00:49:59,680 --> 00:50:01,960 Speaker 4: how you can get your own way by being nice 1065 00:50:02,000 --> 00:50:05,880 Speaker 4: and being kind and being decent is part of life. 1066 00:50:05,880 --> 00:50:08,719 Speaker 4: And so I learned a lot from from her. I 1067 00:50:08,800 --> 00:50:12,640 Speaker 4: really enjoyed Tyra Banks The World End of Tire. Oh 1068 00:50:12,680 --> 00:50:20,400 Speaker 4: there's a lot of choss. Oh she's a whacker dottle. 1069 00:50:20,520 --> 00:50:24,960 Speaker 4: I love her. I loved her. I really liked Jessica Simpson. 1070 00:50:25,080 --> 00:50:27,680 Speaker 4: Like Jessica made me giggle. Jessica was so generous. If 1071 00:50:27,680 --> 00:50:29,600 Speaker 4: you went for dinner with Jessica, she was not a 1072 00:50:29,600 --> 00:50:31,799 Speaker 4: real housewive. She paid for the whole restaurant, but she 1073 00:50:31,920 --> 00:50:35,160 Speaker 4: was so generous and then after work if we were 1074 00:50:35,160 --> 00:50:38,560 Speaker 4: out at NAWD show and she'd give me her driver 1075 00:50:38,680 --> 00:50:40,440 Speaker 4: to take me home afterwards, like she was that girl. 1076 00:50:40,560 --> 00:50:43,279 Speaker 4: She was like she was really grateful about the money 1077 00:50:43,320 --> 00:50:45,799 Speaker 4: and the success. And when she got divorced from Nick 1078 00:50:45,800 --> 00:50:47,920 Speaker 4: and she had to write a massive check, she was 1079 00:50:47,960 --> 00:50:49,920 Speaker 4: like cool, She's like, I'll make it back. But she 1080 00:50:50,000 --> 00:50:53,000 Speaker 4: was not that money or yeah, she certainly did. She 1081 00:50:53,320 --> 00:50:56,239 Speaker 4: was really really cool. I loved working with John bon Jovi. 1082 00:50:56,480 --> 00:50:58,640 Speaker 4: I love the big hair, and I liked all that, 1083 00:50:58,760 --> 00:51:05,359 Speaker 4: like all the hands and ladies. I loved John Clear. 1084 00:51:05,480 --> 00:51:07,920 Speaker 4: I had a concert once don't know where. We got 1085 00:51:07,920 --> 00:51:09,840 Speaker 4: off a plane and you land in a city and 1086 00:51:09,880 --> 00:51:11,239 Speaker 4: you don't really know where you are, and you went 1087 00:51:11,239 --> 00:51:13,360 Speaker 4: to the venue and I saw out the corner of 1088 00:51:13,360 --> 00:51:15,160 Speaker 4: my eye just two minutes before the show started, and 1089 00:51:15,160 --> 00:51:17,520 Speaker 4: I'm in the pit with the photographers because I my 1090 00:51:17,560 --> 00:51:19,640 Speaker 4: whole job. I was paid a fortune to work for 1091 00:51:19,640 --> 00:51:22,839 Speaker 4: about six minutes. Because the moment John's hair flopped, I 1092 00:51:22,840 --> 00:51:25,680 Speaker 4: had to get the photographers out of the pit.

On the stage, they had little pits on 1110 00:52:21,160 --> 00:52:24,439 Speaker 4: the stage, and you couldn't buy a ticket for the pit. 1111 00:52:24,920 --> 00:52:27,600 Speaker 4: You had to be given a wristband by normally a 1112 00:52:27,640 --> 00:52:30,359 Speaker 4: security guard and they called it forgive me you might 1113 00:52:30,400 --> 00:52:33,080 Speaker 4: have to bleep me here.

I was in their 1131 00:53:35,200 --> 00:53:37,759 Speaker 4: lives like we're text with email. I've bumped into a 1132 00:53:37,800 --> 00:53:39,879 Speaker 4: few of them at parties, and it's so interesting because 1133 00:53:39,920 --> 00:53:41,920 Speaker 4: some of them pretend they don't know me. I know. 1134 00:53:42,200 --> 00:53:44,880 Speaker 4: It's almost like, well the staff, it's free down to abbey. 1135 00:53:45,040 --> 00:53:45,640 Speaker 4: I've seen too. 1136 00:53:45,640 --> 00:53:48,839 Speaker 1: Much behind the curtain. Also is a little embarrassing for them. 1137 00:53:52,160 --> 00:53:54,160 Speaker 4: I'm careful what to saying, not because I'm trying to 1138 00:53:54,160 --> 00:53:56,400 Speaker 4: be evasive, but I think you can tell stories with 1139 00:53:56,440 --> 00:53:58,600 Speaker 4: a bit of love. Like it's a love letter to celebrity, 1140 00:53:58,680 --> 00:54:01,919 Speaker 4: my life, my calor, my substack. It's a love letter 1141 00:54:01,960 --> 00:54:04,080 Speaker 4: to celebrities.

But I don't like a punch. You can't punch, 1144 00:54:09,960 --> 00:54:13,440 Speaker 4: but you can pinch. You're a picture. You're a good picture. 1145 00:54:13,760 --> 00:54:17,120 Speaker 4: You're a good picture. I like a pinch like my 1146 00:54:17,200 --> 00:54:20,160 Speaker 4: friends for drigs. Honestly, if you're listening to love alone, 1147 00:54:20,280 --> 00:54:24,000 Speaker 4: my nicest friends are a bit dull. My awful friends 1148 00:54:24,160 --> 00:54:28,319 Speaker 4: are wildly entertaining in the middle. If you could be 1149 00:54:28,400 --> 00:54:30,319 Speaker 4: naughty but nice, then you've won. 1150 00:54:31,040 --> 00:54:33,759 Speaker 1: So you're winning. And I love the celebrities that you loved. 1151 00:54:33,800 --> 00:54:35,600 Speaker 1: And I will end here because I know everybody has 1152 00:54:35,640 --> 00:54:40,520 Speaker 1: to go, but celebrities who are menaces and real life 1153 00:54:40,800 --> 00:54:43,759 Speaker 1: that you are. Like absolutely, if I saw someone I 1154 00:54:43,840 --> 00:54:45,920 Speaker 1: knew dating this person, I would break that up. 1155 00:54:46,000 --> 00:54:47,719 Speaker 4: Oh such a good one. I mean, I think I've 1156 00:54:47,719 --> 00:54:50,640 Speaker 4: already given it away with Bethany. Bethany is just a bad, bad, 1157 00:54:50,960 --> 00:54:54,120 Speaker 4: bad human being. I worked for Lara Spencer and Good 1158 00:54:54,120 --> 00:54:56,879 Speaker 4: Morning America, and that was not pleasant. Lara's a tough, 1159 00:54:56,960 --> 00:54:59,719 Speaker 4: tough devil. That was not a fun experience. 1160 00:55:00,160 --> 00:55:00,360 Speaker 3: You know. 1161 00:55:00,640 --> 00:55:04,040 Speaker 4: I love the the glamour of it, but being Naomi 1162 00:55:04,080 --> 00:55:08,560 Speaker 4: Campbell's publicist wasn't easy either. That was allegedly that was 1163 00:55:08,600 --> 00:55:10,520 Speaker 4: a lot. That was a lot. That was a lot 1164 00:55:10,560 --> 00:55:13,040 Speaker 4: of drama that that I don't think I want to 1165 00:55:13,080 --> 00:55:15,360 Speaker 4: be part of, you know.

I've 1167 00:55:18,600 --> 00:55:20,640 Speaker 4: seen it, like it didn't happen to me, but I've 1168 00:55:20,640 --> 00:55:23,680 Speaker 4: been at events where I've seen her people be really 1169 00:55:23,760 --> 00:55:27,120 Speaker 4: nasty for no reason.

I want to hear more about Bethany Frankel. 1268 00:59:56,480 --> 00:59:59,240 Speaker 3: You know she started a new app for what a 1269 00:59:59,320 --> 00:59:59,960 Speaker 3: dating app? 1270 01:00:01,160 --> 01:00:01,960 Speaker 1: But is she dating? 1271 01:00:02,520 --> 01:00:02,760 Speaker 4: Yes? 1272 01:00:03,240 --> 01:00:06,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, she's back out there. I don't know her billionaire 1273 01:00:07,200 --> 01:00:09,640 Speaker 3: producer boyfriend. They broke up. Remember that was a big deal. 1274 01:00:09,680 --> 01:00:12,640 Speaker 3: That was probably like two years ago. Now she's been 1275 01:00:12,680 --> 01:00:14,680 Speaker 3: reeling from it. I don't care what anyone says. 1276 01:00:14,480 --> 01:00:18,200 Speaker 1: Okay whatever. Breaking up with a billionaire myself, I. 1277 01:00:18,160 --> 01:00:20,840 Speaker 2: Know, and he seemed like cool for her. 1278 01:00:21,000 --> 01:00:24,480 Speaker 3: You know. But she started this new dating app and 1279 01:00:24,520 --> 01:00:27,360 Speaker 3: she claims that she has like a small society of 1280 01:00:27,400 --> 01:00:29,919 Speaker 3: people that she's tested it on and they all love it. 1281 01:00:30,200 --> 01:00:33,040 Speaker 3: But people are saying that it's horrible. So I'm like, 1282 01:00:33,240 --> 01:00:36,560 Speaker 3: what's different about it that it's like a closed society. 1283 01:00:36,600 --> 01:00:39,000 Speaker 3: And also, I guess they do some type of vetting 1284 01:00:39,040 --> 01:00:42,800 Speaker 3: process to make sure you're serious, like elite dating. Yes, 1285 01:00:44,240 --> 01:00:46,120 Speaker 3: I don't know all that, all the details. Yeah, but 1286 01:00:46,200 --> 01:00:48,040 Speaker 3: she tried to make it seem like the vetting is 1287 01:00:48,120 --> 01:00:51,720 Speaker 3: so intense that like you will find someone because everyone 1288 01:00:51,760 --> 01:00:54,560 Speaker 3: is serious about finding somebody. I don't think that that's 1289 01:00:54,600 --> 01:00:56,480 Speaker 3: the way that you sell something because there's always going 1290 01:00:56,560 --> 01:00:58,040 Speaker 3: to be someone who slips between the cracks. 1291 01:00:58,080 --> 01:01:00,640 Speaker 1: And also terrifies me. Yeah, I like, I like, you 1292 01:01:00,680 --> 01:01:03,120 Speaker 1: know me, I like to play it my ear easy breezy, 1293 01:01:03,160 --> 01:01:05,040 Speaker 1: fly by the seat of my pants. Someone comes out 1294 01:01:05,040 --> 01:01:07,200 Speaker 1: and be like, I'm here for it, let's go.
