She's also good friends with Jen on a scale of 1 through 10, Star. On a scale of 1 through 10, 10 being your best friend in the world. Where is Jen on that scale realistically? This is Joe's new favorite question. He's been putting everyone in the, yeah, he's been asking people.

like what they think about us and our friendship like I kind of like it though I feel like okay you're asking to be like honest and realistic be honest yeah be honest yeah you did just meet this person on Joey's season yeah you've only known her for like six months so if you say a 10 like I have some questions yeah that's that's that's a red flag that's a that's a red flag in the friends world is a red flag okay so no I feel like I do hold my friendships like very close to me so the people who I say like are a 10 have been there through everything but i can say that like jenn and i share this unique experience together that i feel like bonded us a little bit differently um and we were able to kind of like

build that friendship after because we do live so close to each other so she is pretty high up there i would say 10 being like my best friend in the world i would say jens jen's up there with like a seven eight okay yeah i think that's that's that's that's fair we can condone that answer seven five all right too simple well because you're in Florida and she's in Miami, right? What part of Florida are you in? I live in Delray Beach. So I'm only like an hour away from her. Okay. Is that where you're from Florida? Yeah, I'm from West Palm. So I just moved a little bit more south. And you are currently in Martha's Vineyard, you said? I am. What are you doing over there? Um, I grew up coming here every summer. So every summer I do a little girl's trip and I bring

all my friends here too. She was invited, but Jen couldn't make it because she's doing a lot of press right know um but she was invited so i'm here and i was here for two weeks i think i'm going to nice what do you have like a family house out there what is what is like the popular food in martha's vineyard if i was going to go there what do i have to get i think lobster rolls lobster rolls yeah that makes sense yeah we love a lobster roll here that makes sense nice yeah i wish we were by some type of it's a lake right martha's vineyard is a lake it's an island it's the ocean ocean okay what ocean that's such a mean question i can't will you just asked her that you could have said you could have said any ocean and joe would have believed it because he doesn't

know the answer either and neither do i i know my ocean is really what ocean is you did you thought it was a lake surrounding martha's video you're gonna tell me you know what ocean it is okay movie movie gone movie on star how did you get on joey season so i actually my friend nominated me the season before and I had got a phone call that season but I had just started my job and I was like I don't know like I just don't know if like I'm in that place right now I just moved back home from school and I started my new job and I was like I don't know and then the next summer I was like literally the most single I've ever been in my entire life and my same friend nominated me again and I got the call and that time I was like you know this is something I really

want to do and I did and that was that who was the who was the who was the bachelor before joey Zach cross okay how do you think you would have do you think you would have went further on Zach season um is he who is more your type my type I would say Joey um I feel well okay physically Joey watching this season of zax I feel like I might have meshed more with him but I feel like you honestly can't tell until like you're actually with the person and like see what the connection is so I'm not sure I feel like I agree with that yeah yeah very true would you ever do paradise if yeah I definitely that was something I really wanted to do but I did just get into a relationship so I think it's off the tables oh did you wow congratulations how'd you

meet um it was actually really interesting so him and I went to the same college but I really didn't know him and he happened to be friends with a lot of my friends boyfriends and fiancees and I don't really know how we didn't cross paths, but we just didn't. And he happened to be at my friend's birthday because he's friends with her boyfriend. And then we kind of just met and hit it off. And we went on a date and it was kept hanging out since then. He's actually on the trip now. I love that.

No way. How long have you been dating? Yesterday, March, two months. About 60 days. Okay. Okay. That's pretty. I mean, we got engaged in.

for 19 days. That's so serious. Our scale is too much. Two months is super serious for us. It's definitely something I was interested before. They're like I truly do believe in like the whole process and all of that. And I had so much fun that I would do it again. But not right now.

You're someone that we didn't really see a whole lot of you on Joey's season. Yeah, no. If you listen to our podcast, there was like episodes where the heck is you are? Like she shows up at the road ceremony. But we didn't see her. I know. No, we were looking for you. Well, you were somebody who, I think a lot of people and us, we were like, why are we not seeing more of her?

So, yeah, I don't know why. Do you think, was there a connection between you and Joey? You know, from my end, I really did think that we had a lot of fun and we had good conversations. There were a lot of things. As you guys both know, you were on the show. Like, not everything gets shown. Yeah. I, from my end, definitely feel like there was.

something there and I was kind of bummed because I did want to be able to see it back and be like maybe like what I was thinking like wasn't actually the case and I obviously didn't really get to see that but at the same time like I don't know I kind of like went in and I was like if this is how I'm supposed to meet my person and this is what's supposed to happen this is going to be absolutely amazing but if not it's just an experience and that's what it was and I'm fine with that but I can't answer like why the things I did weren't on there I'm not the cameraman Well, you're probably, honestly, yeah, like, I feel like that's how I would have handled it too if I was on the show because I do think there are people that kind of fall into like this, this mid group of like, you're cool with the lead, but there's not really like a super strong connection. But then you're also, you're also not the type of personality that's going to go start drama.

Exactly. And that was the other big thing too is like, I do have my opinions and I'm not afraid to say like what I want to say. like what I want to say but there were a lot of things happening that I really had nothing to do with me so I was like you can have me like I don't know like I can say something but it's not going to be what I actually think because I wasn't there I'm not that person I'm not really affected by it kind of just like having a really good time and that was that yeah when I when I got invited to the mental all on my season and I was I was I went home night once I wasn't even there and I remember like just they were talking to me like oh yeah you know speak up if you have an opinion

I was like I don't have an opinion so I was not there so anything that comes out of my mouth is going to be bullshit so I'm probably just not going to say anything but I kind of had the luxury of already doing Paradise so they're like okay yeah you could not say

you're like just sit there and like cute yeah how did your parents land on the name Star and why is there two hours at the end of it I know that's off topic but I keep seeing Star with two R's. Honestly, I don't really have like the best answer for the

two R's because I'm, I don't know. But I think they wanted to do something a little bit different. My last name. Oh, so star is not short for anything. No. Okay, I wasn't sure. What do you think it would be short for? I don't know, but I thought maybe the two R is like led into Starfish. I thought the two R's

might be like, Sterina. I don't know. Like led into something. Storina. Wow. Sterina. That's funny. Have you, have you heard? this trend of people saying like names of things

that if it wasn't what it is would be a really pretty name. Do you know what I'm talking about at a TikTok where people are like prescription if it didn't mean like what it already meant. Yeah. Prescription.

It's just the person that came to mind. Prescription does sound nice. Does it? Well, we won't be dating our child that so we can be a good. But they just wanted something unique. Yeah, my last name is Skyler, so I think they wanted something that kind of flowed with it.

They originally were on sunshine, and I'm really glad that they didn't do that to me. But I think it was too long, and I don't know, they decided Star, and that was that. Star Skyler is cute. My boyfriend's professor is way too friendly, and now I'm seriously suspicious. Oh, wait a minute, Sam. Maybe her boyfriend's just looking for extra credit. Well, Dakota, it's back to school week on the OK Storytime podcast, so we'll find out soon. This person writes, my boyfriend has been hanging out with his young professor a lot.

He doesn't think it's a problem, but I don't trust her. Now he's insisting we get to know each other, but I just want her gone. Now hold up, isn't that against school policy? That sounds totally inappropriate. Well, according to this person, this is her boyfriend's former professor and they're the same age. And it's even more likely that they're cheating. He insists there's nothing between them. I mean, do you believe him?

Well, he's certainly trying to get this person to believe him because he now wants them both to meet. So, do we find out if this person's boyfriend's, friend really cheated with his professor or not. To hear the explosive finale, listen to the OK Storytime podcast on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. I never envision being with a woman. I'll just be honest. I'm Jamel Hill, host of the Sports and Politics Podcasts, Politics.

On this week's episode, I'm joined by basketball legend, Candice Parker, who stops by to discuss her candid new book, The Can Do Mindset, in which she shares why she waited two years into marriage to come out. Like, when I close my eyes at night, every night, I was like, I need to find my prince charming. Like, it was never a princess. Like, that never entered into my mind. But, you know, as I learned, sometimes life gives you things wrapped in a package that you didn't expect it. And that was just, you know, and honestly, it took me a long time to be okay with myself.

Make sure to listen to this week's episode of Spolitics on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcast. or wherever you get your podcast. The U.S. Open is here, and on my podcast, Good Game with Sarah Spain, I'm breaking down the players from rising stars to legends chasing history, the predictions, well, we see a first-time winner, and the pressure. Billy Jean King says pressure is a privilege, you know. Plus, the stories and events off the court, and of course the honey deuses, the signature cocktail of the U.S. Open.

The U.S. Open has gotten to be a very fancy, wonderfully experiential sporting event. I mean, listen, the whole aim is to be accessible and inclusive for all tennis fans, whether you play tennis or not. Tennis is full of compelling stories of late. Have you heard about icon Venus Williams' recent wild card bids? Or the young Canadian, Victoria Mboko, making a name for herself? How about Naomi Osaka getting back to form?

To hear this and more, listen to Good Game with Sarah Spain, an IHeart Women's Sports Production in partnership with Deep Blue Sports and Entertainment on the IHeart radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Presented by Capital One, founding partner of IHeart Women's Sports. So you, on the show, we know that you're friends with Jen.

Who else did you kind of click with? Yeah, did you guys have a group? Was there a group? I feel like in the beginning, because you're going on different group dates and like you're kind of hanging out in the house too, you kind of like start like what is that word like meshing with like the same people but I was kind of jumping around a little bit so like I was hanging out with Jen a lot we got really close on the

paintball date that we did that's when I kind of was like oh like I think this girl's like very similar to me I want to start hanging out with her day one I was always really cool with Edwina she's one of my favorite people we talk a lot um the sisters I love Taylor I love I was kind of like I feel like friendly with everyone. I talked to Kelsey a lot, both Kelsey's. But yeah, Jen was who I was kind of, like, vibing with towards the time when I, when I did end up leaving. What do you think it was that, like, made you guys click? It was easy at first because we both live in the same place. So things were, like, kind of relatable to each other. But we have very similar personalities, I feel like, like we meshed really well. We've had, I feel like in the house, like you end up

talking about literally everything because there's not much else to do. do when you're not interviewing or whatever, you just start talking. So we've had very similar, like, stories and situations, especially with, like, past relationships and things. So I think we bonded in that way. And then it was just really easy after we were both home to, like, actually see each other outside of the show, too, because we live so close. I'm going to ask this question.

I don't want to insult your current boyfriend. And if you don't want to answer, you don't have to set this up perfectly, only because you were somebody that we thought. was going to go on Paradise if they were to have one, were there any guys in Batchar Nation that you were interested in? I don't know. If you would have asked me before I watched the last season of Paradise, I probably could have like pinpointed some,

but then I watched this one and I was like, I didn't know that any of them were like my vibe. So not off the top of my head, but I would have been super open to, like I said before, I'm kind of like really all about the actual connection. I could learn to like like somebody even if they weren't my initial

like what I wanted or my type or whatever. So then for Jen when her cast got announced obviously you weren't looking for yourself but looking through the cast for her obviously we know that she was the show was already wrapped at that point

but were you kind of picking and making your guesses on oh I feel like you liked this guy or I feel like this guy is your type who were kind of like your standouts from when the cast Oh, I need to see, like, them in front of me. Okay, I'm going to look really fast.

Because there was definitely a couple where I was like, I feel like she might like that one. And we were talking after about it too. And I was like, I really want to like watch. I don't know too much. But I want to tell you like what I thought. Yeah, pull them up. I'm curious to hear your thoughts. Okay.

Right off the back, because he's like the first one or the second one, I thought that Austin might be her vibe. Okay. Um, this one, Brian, I was, like, putting up there just because location, he lives pretty close to her. And so I was like, that might make things easy. Brian. Oh, yeah, he's in, he's in Florida. Personally, I like Grant. I don't know if that's Ben or for, yeah.

You're like he's my type. I don't know if he's Jen's type. Yeah. Oh, and then I think, hold on him. scroll in a little bit um john too was another one who caught my eye because he lives um pretty close to and he seemed like somebody she might be interested in it's wrong okay um yeah when you when you guys were filming in um when you guys were filming joey season was there a girl maybe it was even yourself who you guys thought who the house may have thought like oh this person could be the next lead

who was that um i don't know because for me it was it was hard because I was there pretty much in the beginning so everyone I feel like we were all on like the same playing field as far as like how we looked at each other in the house at that time um you know watching it back um we obviously have like the big personalities like I could see Maria I could see Jen Jen and I talked about it a lot um coming off the show too um I'm trying to think of like honestly I would love to see like Lauren She would be pretty entertaining. In the house, I feel like there was nobody. Like, I wasn't really thinking about that at that time. So this was more like my thoughts after the fact. Yeah. Yeah.

And I feel like it's different now. Like we were watching, Caitlin Bristow's. Lauren would be so good. Don't even get me started. But Caitlin Bristow's Night 1 where it was between her and this other girl, Britt. And at that time, she was saying, you know, everyone on the cast really thought it was going to be Brit. because she really fit like this mold of what the bachelorette usually was. But I feel like in the last few years, it's deterred from that in a good way of like there's

every bachelorette that we've seen is very different from one another. So I feel like it becomes harder to predict who it's going to be. Yeah. It was funny because like when we came back, obviously at that point like we weren't going to be with Joey. We were back home. And so Jen was like, I kind of like don't want this to be over. Like what if it was me? and then I was like I feel like you know you got a shot and we would talk about it and it wasn't like this like it was just something that would come up and so when you know I found out that it really was her I was like I feel like we kind of like spoke this into existence and like I think that she's going to be an awesome lead like she has so much energy and she has um like I feel like pieces of like what we said like was that original mold that is now forming into like what the newer seasons are like and I feel like she's just going to bring a lot to the table and she's going to what are some of what are some of the

of Jen's qualities that you feel like you're going to really shine through and make her a strong bachelorette? I think like the main thing is like she knows how to have fun and she's funny and she's not like I feel like no conversation that we're going to watch is going to be boring. Like she can have a deep talk where she can get super personal and deep and deep and she cares about those things and she can also switch up and have, you know, your really lighthearted fun talk. And in all moments, like it's a good conversation. Like I've never, Like, we have sleepovers all the time. I've never once, like, slept over and been like, it was kind of boring.

Like, we always just have fun. And I think that that's what she's going to bring. And I feel like she's going to be able to bring that out from all of the different personalities of men. What would you tell her to be careful for, something that you think she would? Because she says she's come out and say that she falls for, like, toxic men. So, like, what advice would you give her? I think like honestly to go with her gut and if her gut is telling her that toxic guy go the other way because I feel like well so are you telling her are you telling her to fade her

gut because she may not know the guy's toxic and if her gut is exactly so we've talked a lot about is like I feel like because I've had similar situations too and I feel like we resort to that because that's what we know. And so it's like if your gut is telling you that because that's what you're used to, let's go the other way. But if it's because in your heart you really do feel this way about this person, then like trust it because you never talk better than anyone else. I feel like that's really good advice.

Like analyze if you like this person because it feels familiar or if you just, they have a really good heart. Because if you're just like, oh, something feels right, it might just be like, oh, this actually just feels familiar. Like it just feels like what I'm used to. Exactly. That's easier said than done, especially when you don't have your friends to go back and talk to you. Exactly.

That's true, too. That's like gambling when you're like, okay, I always bet on, I always bet the sucker bet. So go the opposite. But then if you start going the opposite, then you'll still fall into the same trap. Okay. So you also use the day toxic men. I don't have the best track recognition. no star

no i'll be the first to admit it i don't and that's why like i really was so excited about the show because i was like this is somebody who you know i obviously saw on tv and was interested in but i don't know this person i don't know their background i don't know anything i'm really just going to go off of like what's happening in front of me um and so that was one of the things that like really intrigued me about going on the show is like i was like having to get out of something like that because i didn't know the person anyways what do you think some like red flags or warning signs are early on that a guy might be a toxic dude coming from you and Jen who have dated toxic guys in the past yeah I think the main thing is like being over-controlling

about things like when I'm saying like I'm going to do this like when you start questioning me or you start saying like oh when are you going to be back to you you should be back at this time you should do this like I feel like that's like the first no and I feel like that comes out really fast on the Bachelorette because they have, as a contestant, you have very, very little control. So the minute you start trying to, like, grab onto anything, it's

obvious. Like, there's no subtle way of doing it. Exactly. So something to keep an eye on viewers. So the guy that you're dating now, are you seeing any... Don't put her new boyfriend in the hot seat. Yeah, he's not here right now. So

he is my first, like, sweet boy, I would say. And I think that my initial, like, when we first met, I was like, I could tell that he was very different. And I remember, like, saying to my friends, like, it's not like, like, I don't know, he was just nice. Like, I just, like, liked talking to him. And then when we had met and then, like, there was a little period and then we had, like, gone on a date. So, like, in that period, in between then, I was like, maybe this is what it's supposed to feel like. Like, I should actually be like, wow, I liked talking to him. And that was that. Like, just like spending time.

with him and I wanted to see him again and I think that's when I like knew it wasn't he's a sweet boy you're not what what like what draws you in what's the first thing attractiveness um yeah I mean I would like be lying if I said like physical didn't matter to me because it does this isn't love is blind that's fine yeah I think that um you know that was obviously the first thing and then to me it's like the conversation like if I feel awkward or if I feel like I'm having to like talk to you to keep your company or like it's trying to like keep something going that's what I'm like I don't like that anymore and that was like something I really liked about him was we were talking like the whole night and then I realized after I was like well I like enjoyed that like

that wasn't you feel like work yeah my boyfriend's professor is way too friendly and now I'm seriously suspicious oh wait a minute Sam maybe her boyfriend's just looking for extra credit well Dakota it's back to school week on the okay story time podcast so we'll find out soon This person writes, my boyfriend has been hanging out with his young professor a lot. He doesn't think it's a problem, but I don't trust her. Now, he's insisting we get to know each other, but I just want her gone. Now, hold up. Isn't that against school policy?

That sounds totally inappropriate. Well, according to this person, this is her boyfriend's former professor and they're the same age. And it's even more likely that they're cheating. He insists there's nothing between them. I mean, do you believe him? Well, he's certainly trying to get this person to believe him because he now wants them both to meet. So, do we find out if this person's boyfriend? really cheated with his professor or not.

We have to talk about a certain TikTok that you and Jen put out, but essentially the TikTok is saying, you know, why don't you tell us about the TikTok? So it was the one, we're referring to the one where she put the duct tape on my face. It's for your mouth, so I keep my mouth shut because in the caption, it did say that I was the only person who knew what happened at the end. So Jen's essentially making a joke, like putting duct tape over Starr's mouth, being like, don't tell anyone because she isn't saying that she told Starr how the whole season ends, which is kind of like the biggest teaser of the show.

Yeah, I know. But to be fair, we've talked about it. I do know, you know, what the outcome is, but there was a lot, like, on both of our ends where I was like, I actually want to watch. And she wants it to be fun. And she wants, like, to be able to watch with me, too. So there is a lot about whatever happens in the finale. I really don't know. I just do know the outcome. Like, I don't know the whole plot. That's kind of fun, though, because I mean, it is hard to keep such a big piece of news from your closest friends, especially the ones that were on the show with you and can understand what the experience is like. But at the same time, you

want to be able to watch the show unfold and enjoy it. So you're the only person that she told. I believe so. So you can't. So you're probably a higher than a 7.5. She probably has you at like a 10. I feel like you're comparing her to like childhood friends who I've known forever. That's the only reason she wasn't a 10.

But as far as like. Well, no, I am. I am. That's the scale. The scale is it's scale is from childhood. So your best friend ever. how you have to raid her. Yeah.

So, like, loyalty-wise, that's why she's up there. Like, we're 7.5 to me is like, we trust each other. We have fun together. She's one of my go-to people. Like, I literally texted her the other day. And I'm like, are you alive? I haven't heard from you. I'm like 24 hours.

Like, it's kind of weird. But, yeah, she's. Oh, so you guys are like that. You guys are, like, texting every day. Well, so they're girls. Boys are different. Actually, you call your friend every single day. I have friends that I talk to multiple times a day.

Yeah. So there you go. Yeah, but they're, they're tens. They're not, you know, they're not seven point. I'm not talking about seven point five. Joe, you're really holding this one fun question against Stahl. You have to let it go. I'm going to have to let it go.

No, you don't. Jed, don't interrogate Starr, okay? This is Joe's fault. I love you. I do think it also helps, though. Like, I am a counselor. I, like, for a living, I have to keep people's information private. it and I talk and listen for a living.

And so I think that naturally, like, I always say this all the time. I don't know what it is, but people, like, love to tell me things. Like, I know a lot of things about a lot of people that I'll just kind of like say here. So I think that part of like how we speak to each other, like the conversations we have, like naturally we're really good friends and like girls talk. Well, she obviously feels like if she's only going to tell one person, she can trust you with that important information because that is a skill that you have and something that you do on a day to day and I mean if you're going to confide in someone we'll see we'll see yeah if the news

comes out we know where it came from it was star guys I promise you have my word Jen do you have a crazy horrific dating story that you would like to tell um why is that funny we ask that on every episode I feel like it's those are hard I was actually asked that before like before I went on the show and I'm very like if I don't like you I'm not we're not going to talk again so like I feel like I've been in a situation where I was like you're kind of weird and then you just never hear from me again so like I feel like we don't get to the point where it gets super crazy because like I know when I'm like done with it maybe like before when I was dating like weird people I kind of lost my life though like I don't know okay wait back to Jen's finale though

what can you tease if you were to do a little tease without giving anything away what would you what would you say i do okay because i feel like from my perspective too she told me like i don't want to tell you everything because i want you to be like oh my god that's what happened so it has to be i feel like the teases is like it has to be something that's a big deal if like she told me the outcome but didn't tell me how that happened right so i feel like that's the tease is like like it's more than what we all think. It's more than just the outcome. It's about like the journey there.

Exactly. That's like the bigger part of the story. I like that. That's a good to you. Yeah. That's good. Any, before we let you go, you're in Martha's Vineyard right now. Do you have any trips coming up for the summer?

I do. So, yeah, I work in a school. So it's kind of nice. I have all summer off. I was just in Puerto Rico. I'm in Martha's Vineyard now. And then actually on Monday, I'm going to be in New York with Jen for her premiere.

So that's something I'm excited about. Oh, so exciting. Where are you guys going for the premiere? I think that she, I think some space, I don't know, like a lounge area. I don't know the name of it. How long are you in town for? How long are you here for? I'm only going to be there for a couple of days.

I have some other friends like from my sorority and stuff who are there who I'm going to go see to. And then my boyfriend and I are actually going on a trip like right after. So I got it. Oh, my God. You're traveling like crazy. That's a step. It is. Where are you guys going?

St. Lucia. Oh, so pretty. I'm very excited. Joe's like really messed in your relationship, Star. You are. Yeah, no, I am now. I'm here for it.

Thank you. Starr, thank you so much for coming on Bachelor Happy Hour. This was a lot of fun. And anything you would like to say about yourself or Jen before we let you go. Yeah. What are you most excited about

for this upcoming season? I'm most excited for people to really see Jen and like for her to really shine. I feel like she just has such a big personality and I feel like she's really going to wow people and it's going to be fun and it's going to be exciting. And I'm excited for people to like love her as much as I do. So I think it's going to be good. I'm going to be fun. I like that. Okay.

Well, before we let you go, I have to play, we have to play one game. Okay. All right. No. I'm scared. What? Why, do you have an issue with this fucking game? Every time I'm like, all right, you ready?

It's not hard or weird. It's just this game that Joe has made up. I didn't make it up. You say I don't know TikToks. It's all over TikTok. It's like the French guys do it. He loves it and he's been playing it with all the work guests, but has nothing to do with dating or The Bachelor.

It's about food. Okay. Okay. All right. Lobster roll or sushi? Sushi or cheese. burger sushi sushi or pizza
