Speaker 2: You're listening to the Pickup with Brit Hockey.
Speaker 3: And Laura Be and you've lost it. I just was
Speaker 3: reading an article.
Speaker 1: I had my hands on the weekend.
Speaker 3: We're going to talk about it.
Speaker 1: But an article literally just popped up about my hands.
Speaker 3: And I was reading it and it says.
Speaker 4: She brandished a glass of Bubbly as she posed on
Speaker 4: the boat with a.
Speaker 3: Gaggle of her girlfriends. I'm sorry a week geese? What
Speaker 3: are we? Who writes these articles?
Speaker 1: A gaggle of girlfriends joins the fun.
Speaker 2: Oh wow, I can't wait to unpack it. Just so
Speaker 2: you do know, as Brit said, it was her hens partner.
Speaker 3: Was it loose? We'll tell you all about it coming
Speaker 3: up very soon. Were there geese on board? Apparently? Who knows?
Speaker 3: We'll unpack it. The mystery that was There's also something.
Speaker 2: That's very funny that I saw just on news before
Speaker 2: we started the show, and that is did you see
Speaker 2: the guy who tried to shimmy onto.
Speaker 3: A cruise ship? Okay, so if you haven't seen this,
Speaker 3: there's an article that's going around at the moment.
Speaker 2: This dude in Sydney tried to climb the rope of
Speaker 2: a cruise ship onto the cruise ship.
Speaker 3: I don't know what he was doing. I don't know
Speaker 3: why he.
Speaker 2: Was doing it, but he was trying to get inside.
Speaker 2: I have listened to this spider.
Speaker 5: Man, Spider friendly need or good spider Man.
Speaker 4: Who is this?
Speaker 1: Well done for not losing the pongs, mate, that's a
Speaker 1: big effort.
Speaker 2: This is just some dude who's decided he wanted to
Speaker 2: try and board the cruise ship by going on the
Speaker 2: rope that anchors it to the dock.
Speaker 4: Do you think he was trying to illegally get on there,
Speaker 4: or do you think he was a stuntman? Or do
Speaker 4: you think that he is actually just a guest on
Speaker 4: the boat that was left behind and the boat was
Speaker 4: about to lease.
Speaker 1: He was like, I don't know how to get on,
Speaker 1: and he just thought he'd spine him in Up.
Speaker 2: I think he was just really into cruise ships and
Speaker 2: he wanted a free cruise.
Speaker 3: He was just trying to get on. He had nothing
Speaker 3: with him. He could have been a guest that the
Speaker 3: gates are closed. But that's aggress here trying to.
Speaker 4: Go all right, that's enough out of you, gagglet.
Speaker 2: We had a very big weekend on Saturday, me being
Speaker 2: extremely heavily pregnant and you being pretty much sober these days.
Speaker 2: It was your Hen's party, and whoa did it go off?
Speaker 1: It was the time has finally come. Who would have
Speaker 1: thunk it.
Speaker 2: One step closer to being missus Segres with your gaggle
Speaker 2: of gals out on the boat.
Speaker 3: In the harbor.
Speaker 2: But look, I have to say, I know that I'm pregnant,
Speaker 2: so I'm not drinking at the moment.
Speaker 3: But it was a particularly tame Hens party.
Speaker 4: It was, but I expected it to be tame, so
Speaker 4: I'm not that age matters.
Speaker 1: I am soon to be thirty eight.
Speaker 3: I am late to the party for the marriage party.
Speaker 3: Though I don't think thirty eight is old to be
Speaker 3: getting married.
Speaker 1: It's not old to be getting married.
Speaker 4: But what it means is the era that you're in
Speaker 4: is the era that most of your friends are then
Speaker 4: in of pregnancy or breastfeeding or whatever it is, because
Speaker 4: like mid to late thirties, that's when that stuff is happening.
Speaker 4: So like whilst I'm just kicking off, half of them
Speaker 4: were either pregnant or breastfeeding.
Speaker 2: There was two pregnant women on the boat, and I
Speaker 2: do not recommend being pregnant and getting on a boat.
Speaker 2: It's very hard having morning sickness and being on a
Speaker 2: moving boat with everyone drinking.
Speaker 4: And my sister was she was like sending it, but
Speaker 4: she was also off to the corner pumping milk as well.
Speaker 3: She's got a baby.
Speaker 1: She's like, she's gotta go pup my boob's gonna explain.
Speaker 3: It was so funny.
Speaker 1: I have this one video of her over in the.
Speaker 4: Corner, these two pumps on both bibs, but she's like
Speaker 4: rocking out from the corner.
Speaker 3: She was expressing.
Speaker 1: But that's a part of it.
Speaker 4: That's the era that we're in, and I am so
Speaker 4: happy with that.
Speaker 1: I'm not a huge partier.
Speaker 4: For me, the ideal hands is like to kick start
Speaker 4: at eleven, go hard till two, slippery, slope downwards till five,
Speaker 4: quick little dinner.
Speaker 2: At six having do you know what, I think we Okay,
Speaker 2: not that we went wrong, but I think that we
Speaker 2: kind of structured it a little bit more for people
Speaker 2: who were like really on the booze train, because at
Speaker 2: eight pm we had a limo that came and picked
Speaker 2: us up, and this was like, you know the party limos,
Speaker 2: the limos that you get to your year twelve formal
Speaker 2: that have like the lights on the ceiling, the pulsating music,
Speaker 2: like it's a.
Speaker 3: Vibe and if you've had a waste, if you've had
Speaker 3: a few drinks, it is a vibe.
Speaker 2: If you were stone cold sober at eight a eight
Speaker 2: pm getting in a limo that's pumping what was it,
Speaker 2: Taylor Swift songs, It's it's a different experience.
Speaker 4: You're dancing and you're singing along, but it hits different
Speaker 4: when you're sober to when you're off your chop.
Speaker 3: I have a question for you. Though.
Speaker 2: We had a lot of conversations back and forth. We
Speaker 2: even talked about on the show strippers at Hens Parties. Now,
Speaker 2: you had made it very clear that unless we could
Speaker 2: get the Channing Tatum look like you didn't.
Speaker 3: Want to stripper.
Speaker 1: Yeah, hot chanting Tatum will two point zero.
Speaker 3: Go find him on Instagram. He's very good looking, looks
Speaker 3: identical Channing Tatum. We couldn't get him, he's not in
Speaker 3: the country, as.
Speaker 2: Much as we tried our absolutely hard, as he's simply
Speaker 2: not available.
Speaker 1: No, my fiance Ben told me he booked him out
Speaker 1: for the entire month.
Speaker 2: Did you feel as though, now, looking back, you wish
Speaker 2: you had a stripper?
Speaker 3: Are you glad that there was no striper?
Speaker 1: I'm happy it was too much for pause. I was like,
Speaker 1: this could get me a new trouble. No, it would
Speaker 1: have been fun, but it was.
Speaker 4: It was stripper Channing will or no one like. I
Speaker 4: was never gonna just have You don't have a strip
Speaker 4: of the sake of having a striper, you do?
Speaker 3: I think for the sake of having us. What's the
Speaker 3: what's your sake there?
Speaker 4: Well, Channing Tatum used to be my hall pass, so
Speaker 4: having Channing tat two point.
Speaker 1: Zero strip would have just been funny.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 4: True, But I would have loved to striper there, to
Speaker 4: see like Channing there, to see you guys with him.
Speaker 4: I don't want a lap dance. I don't want to
Speaker 4: see it, but I would have loved to have seen
Speaker 4: the pregnant Momers getting up in the grill like I
Speaker 4: would have loved to have seen.
Speaker 3: That, Grace. Is it too late for us just to
Speaker 3: organize it when he's back from tour.
Speaker 2: No, I'm going to come into the studio just a
Speaker 2: lap dance because she missed out.
Speaker 3: Yeah, we couldn't.
Speaker 4: We couldn't make it happen, not having a sober radio
Speaker 4: at three pm afternoon.
Speaker 2: Only if you get it to be fair, I'll go tribute.
Speaker 4: If you, I'll take it for Laura goes home to
Speaker 4: her husband Matt.
Speaker 1: She's like, well, Matt, you'll never leave what I had to.
Speaker 3: Do at radio today.
Speaker 2: The thing that's different though, about your hands bre it
Speaker 2: is like you're sober by choice. You've had like this
Speaker 2: existential moment in life where you've decided to stop drinking.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm not completely sober, but I've had three drinks
Speaker 4: this year, which just where the world's taking me.
Speaker 3: Yeah, mine's also by choice.
Speaker 2: I've also had about three drinks this year, but it
Speaker 2: wouldn't normally be it's only because I'm up the duff, so,
Speaker 2: like you know, it's a change in situations for me.
Speaker 4: No, and just to really like double down and set
Speaker 4: the scene here, so you know who I am at
Speaker 4: my court. To kick off the hens, I organized a
Speaker 4: tarot reading, like for.
Speaker 1: People, That's what I did. That's that's what gets me going.
Speaker 1: I love the taro reader.
Speaker 2: What this is how you and men get things going
Speaker 2: in the night time. You're like, read me my fortune.
Speaker 2: He's like, give me a palm and okay. Was there
Speaker 2: anything that came from the tarot reading that was a
Speaker 2: revelation for someone who is very soon to be married.
Speaker 4: She did say that someone was gonna stab me in
Speaker 4: the back, which I found interesting because I thought they
Speaker 4: were only supposed to really positive.
Speaker 1: I didn't think it was supposed to be like these
Speaker 1: glowing reviews. But daggers kept coming up.
Speaker 4: So daggers would come up in the cards that she
Speaker 4: would pull, and daggers would come up in the visualizations
Speaker 4: we were doing, because we did a bunch of different stuff.
Speaker 2: Did she say anything positive about the wedding, We're just daggers.
Speaker 1: No, wedding didn't come up.
Speaker 3: There's a lot of knives, a lot of sword fights,
Speaker 3: So I don't know what to do with that.
Speaker 4: I might spend a little bit more time doing some
Speaker 4: research on the old sword fight but no, she did
Speaker 4: say I was a very lucky person. The last cards
Speaker 4: that got pulled, she said. She ended with a positive like,
Speaker 4: whilst I may have a knife in my back, she said,
Speaker 4: I'm a very lucky person and a lot of good
Speaker 4: things are going to come my way.
Speaker 1: So I'll hold on to that.
Speaker 2: Now we're talking about plastic surgery, which there's a couple
Speaker 2: of reasons for this.
Speaker 3: Firstly, do you know who Jamie Lee Curtis is? Yes?
Speaker 2: Everyone does, right, So Jamie Lee Curtis has come out
Speaker 2: recently and she spoke about very candidly about how she'd
Speaker 2: had plastic surgery in her early twenties. However, it was
Speaker 2: very refreshing to hear her talk about this because she
Speaker 2: didn't speak about it in terms of like having a
Speaker 2: positive outcome. She spoke about her regrets around plastic surgery.
Speaker 3: Have listened to this and.
Speaker 5: Was like, yeah, I'm not shooting her today. Her eyes
Speaker 5: are baggy and I was twenty five. For him to
Speaker 5: say that was very embarrassing. So as soon as the
Speaker 5: movie finished, I ended up having some plastic surgery.
Speaker 1: How did that go?
Speaker 5: Not? Well, that's just not what you want to do
Speaker 5: when you're twenty five or twenty six, and I regretted
Speaker 5: it immediately and have kind of sort of regretted it
Speaker 5: since even now. Way so now because I've become a
Speaker 5: really public advocate to say to women, you're gorgeous and
Speaker 5: you're perfect the way you are, so oh yeah, it
Speaker 5: was not a good thing for me to do.
Speaker 4: This is really tricky because no one should ever be
Speaker 4: felt or forced into getting plastic surgery. I can't imagine
Speaker 4: what it's like at twenty five years old to have
Speaker 4: someone say you are not even good enough for me
Speaker 4: to shoot today.
Speaker 1: Change your face.
Speaker 2: But they didn't say that that's the thing, right, They
Speaker 2: didn't say change your face. They just said, oh, you've
Speaker 2: got to like, you look too tired, your eyebags are
Speaker 2: too bad.
Speaker 3: I'm not shooting you today.
Speaker 1: Is this subliminal message. Absolutely.
Speaker 2: But I really related to this because after I came
Speaker 2: out of the whole Bachelor, like that whole thing, which
Speaker 2: was like, you know, eight years ago, now the Bachelor finish,
Speaker 2: You're spat out into the world after being on a
Speaker 2: reality TV show, and the amount of negative feedback you
Speaker 2: received from people who comment on things on social media
Speaker 2: was just not something that I was mentally prepared for
Speaker 2: at all, and people would say things about the way
Speaker 2: that I looked, which were things that I had never
Speaker 2: not liked about myself, Like I would have people talk
Speaker 2: about my nose, or people talk about like saying that
Speaker 2: I was looked older than mad, like things that I
Speaker 2: just had never even for one second looked in the
Speaker 2: mirror and disliked about myself. And then I found myself
Speaker 2: looking in the mirror and critiquing all these things that
Speaker 2: I started to hate about myself because of the things
Speaker 2: that have been said. There are so many times where
Speaker 2: I would lay in bed and I would look at
Speaker 2: before and afters if people who had had nose jobs,
Speaker 2: which is crazy now to think that I my brain
Speaker 2: went down that route. But the reason why I want
Speaker 2: to talk about this is because I do feel like
Speaker 2: having celebrities who haven't been happy with the outcome is
Speaker 2: kind of the antidote for the world that we're in
Speaker 2: at the moment, where all we see is the success
Speaker 2: stories around plastic surgery.
Speaker 4: Yeah, but I think the difference here is we need
Speaker 4: younger celebrities to be having those conversations. I love that
Speaker 4: Jamie Luke Curtis is having it, but she's sixty six
Speaker 4: and she got the plastic.
Speaker 1: Surgery at twenty five.
Speaker 4: No other twenty five year olds are going to listen
Speaker 4: to that, unfortunately, I think and say, oh, she's right,
Speaker 4: we'll regret this. It's like you need other young celebrities
Speaker 4: to come out and admit they've done it and say
Speaker 4: maybe that they wish they didn't do it, because I
Speaker 4: think we're then showing people like Chris Jenna, who we
Speaker 4: did just mention has she's in her sixties. She just
Speaker 4: unveiled her new face like she's had a face lift
Speaker 4: to be fair, looks incredible, like she looks so young
Speaker 4: and youthful again. And then that pushes and reinforces the
Speaker 4: point of we shouldn't be aging gracefully. Like if these
Speaker 4: people that are successful women that are a bit older
Speaker 4: are in the public eye, it's sort of reinforcing, oh
Speaker 4: my god, she's taking years off her.
Speaker 2: She's totally But also like this whole new trend of
Speaker 2: like unveiling your new face like normal, but it's not
Speaker 2: just like people who are in their sixties who are
Speaker 2: doing it.
Speaker 3: It's not Chris Jenner's.
Speaker 2: It's like the Lindsay Lowens, you know, all of a
Speaker 2: sudden one day popping up and looking fifteen years younger
Speaker 2: than what you did several months earlier. Don't get me wrong,
Speaker 2: I see those photos as well. Like I remember when
Speaker 2: Lindsay Lowen first came out and I was like, Wow,
Speaker 2: I don't know who her surgeon is, but I want
Speaker 2: to find them that I want to book myself in.
Speaker 1: I did find them in Dubai.
Speaker 4: I found them, really, Yes, I know exactly where they
Speaker 4: I haven't gone there, but I'm stucking that one away.
Speaker 2: I'm not saying I'm immune to this at all, but
Speaker 2: I do think that the more that you see these
Speaker 2: success stories, all it does is reinforces this kind of
Speaker 2: this mentality that it's accessible and that it's something that
Speaker 2: we should potentially look at doing.
Speaker 4: I personally do not have an issue with plastic surgery,
Speaker 4: and I don't have an issue with anyone having it.
Speaker 4: I've always said that I think it's absolutely fine. I
Speaker 4: just think the conversation needs to start become publicly more balanced.
Speaker 1: Yes, that's more honest, That's what I think.
Speaker 4: It is.
Speaker 1: More exposure, more rawness, more openness.
Speaker 4: And that's from the everyday people and from celebrities, Because
Speaker 4: every celebrity most of them won't admit to what they've
Speaker 4: done until later in life, but they don't want to
Speaker 4: be known for their beauty being fake when they're younger,
Speaker 4: and so once that conversation flips and becomes more balanced,
Speaker 4: I think it's fine.
Speaker 3: I agree with you completely, Brit.
Speaker 2: But in saying that, you know Chris Jenna quote unquote
Speaker 2: unveiltun you face, so is Lindsay Lowen. But no one
Speaker 2: talks about what the steps are in order to achieve that.
Speaker 2: No one talks about the surgery. No one talks about
Speaker 2: the recovery process. And it's very few people who are
Speaker 2: in the media Lime Ladder who are celebrities who actually
Speaker 2: show what it is like to go through this process,
Speaker 2: because it is not pretty and it is incredibly grueling,
Speaker 2: not only as expensive, but it is such a major surgery,
Speaker 2: some of these cosmetic surgeries, and I think that that's
Speaker 2: just completely brushed under.
Speaker 3: The carpet as part of it.
Speaker 2: Britt, are you somebody who gets road rage, like on
Speaker 2: a scale of one to rage, where do you sit?
Speaker 4: I'm probably too under raging. I do get road rage, yes,
Speaker 4: but only when it's warranted, not unnecessarily. If you put
Speaker 4: me off if you did drive dangerously, you're going to
Speaker 4: know about it.
Speaker 2: I have vague memories of one of our friends telling
Speaker 2: me a story about you, like hanging out a window
Speaker 2: screaming at.
Speaker 3: A man with your finger.
Speaker 1: Deserved it, jerk off, he deserved it.
Speaker 3: He deserved it. I see.
Speaker 2: I feel like when you're in a car, the car
Speaker 2: becomes like your safe bubble. Oh you walk the door,
Speaker 2: and people who are like normally calm and pleasant in
Speaker 2: normal life become insane. I've told you guys a story
Speaker 2: before about how I yelled at a man in a
Speaker 2: car park through my window with my kids and.
Speaker 3: My mother and my mother in law in the car.
Speaker 2: Wasn't proud of it, but I will admit that sometimes
Speaker 2: road rage gets the better of me. But I would say, like,
Speaker 2: since becoming a mum, I'm much better at metering when
Speaker 2: I am annoyed by something like I don't swear around
Speaker 2: my kids, even though I would swear normally in my
Speaker 2: normal life. I know when I need to be mum appropriate.
Speaker 3: Right.
Speaker 2: Also, I think, so, We're in the car the other
Speaker 2: day and the woman who was directly in front of me,
Speaker 2: who was driving, she was like oncoming traffic, but there
Speaker 2: was roadworks on the road. She pulled over to the side,
Speaker 2: but she hadn't pulled over far enough for me to
Speaker 2: be able to get my car passed anyway.
Speaker 3: She was then distracted.
Speaker 2: I think she might have been on a phone or
Speaker 2: she was doing something with the radio, but she was
Speaker 2: not paying attention to the fact that I could not
Speaker 2: get through. So we were both just kind of standing there,
Speaker 2: like in our cars playing a game of Chicken, waiting
Speaker 2: for the other person to do something. And so I
Speaker 2: mumbled something under my breath, and I've got Marley and
Speaker 2: Lola in the back seat, so Marley's five lollas four and.
Speaker 3: Mally says like, Mommy, what's going on?
Speaker 2: And I was like, oh, just this woman's not moving
Speaker 2: a car, so we can't go, and she goes we
Speaker 2: just why don't you bip her? And I was like,
Speaker 2: I'm not going to bip her. She'll figure it out
Speaker 2: in a second. We're also basically on my home street.
Speaker 3: So I'm so sorry.
Speaker 1: Like, when if you not wanted to beat someone you love.
Speaker 3: A bet you're a beeper.
Speaker 2: I'm not going to beat someone on my street, Like
Speaker 2: entering near my house could be a neighbor anyway, so
Speaker 2: I was like, well, wait, we weren't in a rush.
Speaker 2: It's a Saturday, We're having a leisuredly day. I wasn't
Speaker 2: angry about it. I did mumble something about her not
Speaker 2: being able to though.
Speaker 3: Anyway. A couple of minutes past, she finally realizes.
Speaker 2: She moves it card to the side, and I was like,
Speaker 2: for God's sakes, as I.
Speaker 3: Pull around her and Lola in the back seat goes,
Speaker 3: don't worry, mummy, I stuck my rude finger up at her.
Speaker 3: I was like, sorry, what she's four? I was like,
Speaker 3: what did you do? And she goes, I stuck my
Speaker 3: finger up hurt her, And I was like, why did
Speaker 3: you do that?
Speaker 1: Does she know the right finger?
Speaker 3: Yeah, she's she's all over it. She's all over it, savage.
Speaker 3: And I was like, I'm.
Speaker 2: Sorry, sweety, why did you do that? And she goes,
Speaker 2: because that's what you do, That's what you would do.
Speaker 2: And I was like, I don't stick my finger up
Speaker 2: at people. Not only did she perfectly like she remembers
Speaker 2: every single time in recent times that I've done that.
Speaker 2: She was like, remember the time that we were driving
Speaker 2: to Arnie Alex's house, you stuck your finger up at
Speaker 2: the black car.
Speaker 3: Remember when we were going to this place at this time,
Speaker 3: She's like, you stuck your finger up at the blue car.
Speaker 2: She remembered everything that I had done and just hadn't
Speaker 2: said anything at the time.
Speaker 1: Is she like rain Man?
Speaker 3: Probably? But what is okay?
Speaker 1: You need to rein it in.
Speaker 3: I didn't know I was doing it.
Speaker 4: I told you you love a beep, You love a beep,
Speaker 4: you love a little slipped finger.
Speaker 3: I think it's not a beep.
Speaker 2: I think I just thought that not verbalizing it and
Speaker 2: just sticking a finger up was like a calmer way
Speaker 2: of doing it.
Speaker 4: But she also knows, like she reads the situation. Now,
Speaker 4: that's the problem. She uses it at the right time,
Speaker 4: like some people don't know what it means and when
Speaker 4: to use it. But as a four year old, she
Speaker 4: has like interpreted that situation that this is the crucial
Speaker 4: time just to give your.
Speaker 3: Name with the finger.
Speaker 2: Imagine driving pass after doing something like a bit shitty
Speaker 2: and you're driving and.
Speaker 3: The four year old in the back seat sticks their
Speaker 3: finger up.
Speaker 4: Well, guess who's not getting invited to the street Christmas
Speaker 4: party this year?
Speaker 2: Laura's Lola.
Speaker 3: All right, Well, look guys, that's it. From US
