Episode Date: October 28, 2022

Audrey Peters has been called "one of the most polarizing people on TikTok" because she is a glamorous Manhattanite who is 100% honest about her lifestyle, obsession with buying designer, surgical procedures, and strong opinions on men in Murray Hill. Her honesty and openness were perfect for hell. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Welcome to Burning Eamon Hell. Okay, we are going to Ermez Hell today. Did I say it right? Armes, yeah. You said it right. I got really nervous right before, and I was like, don't fuck it up in front, Audrey. Anyway, I am with, like, the queen of, I mean, people say you're polarizing. on TikTok, but I think you're iconic on TikTok, just because she's honest and up front that

she, like, just loves doing things that make her happy and gorgeous and bring her joy. And she's also, like, super stylish while she does it. Thank you. That was my quick little thing. But, yeah, I'm known for, like, yeah, I didn't know anything about, like, fashion. I'm from Brooklyn originally, and I just, like, I was an athlete. I never got into all that stuff. And then I discovered you.

And I was like, what is going on in the Hermes collector community? And I feel like you are their spokesperson. I'm definitely not their spokesperson. But I'm very flattered that you say that. And let me tell you, my ego definitely doesn't need it. But I'll take it. I will, I'll sprint with it. No, but I feel like you're the kind of person that if I first saw,

I'd be like, we have nothing in common. Like, she's sewn to fashion and stuff. But then as I, like, listen to you because I like your personality naturally, Like, I can tell that you like to complain and shit and make fun of stuff. Next thing, no, I'm, like, I'm fascinated by it. And then I started to get more into fashion. And then also your relationship with your body and stuff. I just, like, a real bitch.

Oh, like, I speak four languages fluently and bullshit is not one of them. Like, I can't do the bullshit. Like, like, the small talk shit, like, you're either real or you're not. There's no in between for me. I don't want to chit chat. I love it. Like, be real or get the fuck out of my face. Yeah, because we're tired.

I'm tired. I'm tired. I'm an introvert. I don't get energized by talking to anybody. I get drained. So if I'm going to talk to you, it better be worth my time. I feel like I've also been seeing you do content like for a while before the TikTok popped. Like I feel like you were my algorithm like or just maybe Instagram outfits. Maybe Instagram. I didn't really join like anything until TikTok really. Like I'd always done Instagram and I had like a public Instagram but like I really didn't do like social before for the most part. Where you from originally? So I was born in my. Miami. Oh my God. Yeah. Serious curveball. Yeah. I hate Florida. Yeah. I moved here when I was 12 and then I never left except for college. Where'd you live in the New York area? Uptown New York City. Oh. Manhattan baby. Okay. So you get it. Okay. You get where it's coming from. Because it's funny. As someone who's New Yorker too, I'll see certain people and I can tell that they like grew up in New York kind of thing and it gives a different edge. A different Jeanette's what? It's funny because no one.

ever has looked at me and been like you're from miami i'm like no actually i'm so happy no one would think that no one wants to anyone from miami where'd you go to school here where sacred heart oh yes yes i think my cousin went there oh my god okay okay i'm just i'm getting there's sacred heart in miami there's sacred heart here yeah and then i went to boarding school oh yeah wow okay when did you start getting in to like brands since i was trying on my mom's dior shoes at like too. I've always been a fashion girlie. Always. It was always what I wanted to do. Before I did TikTok, I worked at Hearst Magazines for Harper's Bazaar. Yes. Elle, Mary Claire. I worked at all the fashion magazines. Okay, that is also, I feel like the dream gig of like millennial girls growing up.

You think it's the dream gig until you can barely eat dinner. Yes. True. You think it's the dream gig. You're getting paid 38K. Not even. I think, no, I'm dead ass. My salary was 33 or 34th. You're like, I went to college. No, I'm literally like I fully, what was? Cum Laude? Whatever it was. Whatever that was, I had it. You did good.

I did okay. I did okay. And I was getting paid 34 grand. I can't pronounce or spell what it was, but it meant I was smart. No, I was smart. I was smart. Okay, so can you actually explain to me the concept of Hermes? I think I said Hermes before.

Hermes. And how they just want a certain clientele. And to get it, you have to, like, schmooze them? Like, can you just explain to people what the fuck's going on? See, here's the thing. I don't think that they're discriminatory against clientele. I don't think that's what it is at all. They want someone who's invested in the brand as a whole.

So the reason that they won't just let you buy a bag, like when you walk in, is because they want you to invest in the brand as a whole so that they feel like you're truly a representative of the brand. So until it's like, it's rumored that there's like a spending mark. And that's when you get the bag, right? It's like, it's rumored that you have to. So you buy other shit at, so you could buy anything but not the bag. Correct.

They will not let you buy the bag. I'm now getting memories of your TikTok. You were, went to the most gorgeous, beautiful places over the summer. Oh, yours is sweet. But you were also, like, on hunts for certain fashion fines. Yeah. And you would be like, I did all this stuff to try to get it.

And I got. No, I straight up spent a stupid amount of money trying to get a bag in Paris. I mean, I was absurd in Paris. That was, like, not even okay. In retrospect, like, oh, my God, my poor boyfriend who I can't even... But also, you're spending your money. No, it's not even about that. It's the fact that the poor man had to sit at Armaz for two hours.

You're just testing them. Like, it wasn't... How long have you been together? A year and a half. Oh, my God, fun. Yeah. Where'd you meet? Hinge.

Oh, my God, obsessed. Okay, you should be on a Hinge poster. That's my dream collab. We'll get there one day. Yeah. Because it's funny, I did stuff with Hinge when I was, like, single. No way. And then I, like, got married.

I guess I haven't. Wait, you're married? I'm married. How did I not know that? You know, I do de-center men from my life. So, like... I love it. Every now and then I'll post something about being married and people are upset in the comment.

Wait, no, I'm really shook. I'm like, we have a lot of people friends. Like, how did I not know that? No, I know. You know, it all happened very quick during the pandemic. Oh, so did you guys meet during the pandemic? Yep. It was like six months engaged, got married in West Hampton.

That's like when you know you know. Oh, for sure. And he's also older. He's 46. Oh, okay. I mean, he's a comedian, but he's, like, not about doing TikTok dances with me. I tried. I tried.

I really tried. That's why I do get jealous when I see these, like, dumb, 22-year-old boyfriends who are just, like, doing whatever the girl wants. Yeah, but why be jealous of that? They all break up. I know. You're like, he's not going to be married to me too. Like, no shade, like, Dixie and Melio, Noah, who, by the way, like, I feel so bad because I think Dixie's an icon, but, like, they're done.

They broke up. Did they break up? Yeah, they feel they broke up. Do people know that? Yeah, it's on TikTok. Oh, shit. That's how I found out. I'm behind.

That's how I found out. Yeah, young love. Beautiful young love. Young love, man. I'm like, learn what you don't want. Just keep going through. Keep researching. Just keep moving forward.

Oh, my God. So, back to MS, because I'm fascinated by it. They won't tell you the amount you need to spend, though. It's rumored that you're supposed to spend the price of the bag. Oh. But that's so like 20, I can tell you that's not true. No, the bags. I mean, the huge depends on the 20.

Yeah. It starts at like eight. Okay. But it's rumored, but I know for a fact that's not true because I didn't have to do that. It's really not about the money you spend. It's about connecting with the sales associate. It's about, but in like an authentic way, not because you're trying to play this game. Yes.

If you're playing a game, then you're going to lose the game. Yeah, because I'm envisioning a real mind-fuck. If you're actually invested in the brand, the way they want you to be, you'll get a bag. But then, you know, you can't be, like, you should get a blanket. Like, you want to be as involved as you can in the best way possible. is basically what they want that's what they want to encourage so once you get this bag how does it differentiate from other bags i mean if you have the eye you know that it just looks different than all other bags well it does have a different style yes but like in terms of the feel or how it carries

or how it's organized like does the organization of it i'm i mean it's just like a bag yeah you open it and it's empty like there's not special zippers there's no special i mean some of them have special zippers but the classic ones don't it's just hand stitch like i got to say don't me wrong. I like Chanel. I buy Chanel bags. Not really anymore, but like I buy Chanel. It's like you can tell that like the same price bag at Chanel at Armaz, the Hermes one is hand-stitched. The Chanel one is hot glue gunned. Like you can just tell. Like in Armaz, like the bags are hand sewn. They're handmade. They're just such amazing quality. Like it's not the quality really isn't comparable. So how do you make your buying decisions? Because I am,

I have shopping anxiety. I'm so the opposite. I'm impulsive. I have shopping regrets. If I don't buy something. I'm not kidding you. I think about it 10 years later. I love shop anxiety at Zara like I walk in. It's over H&M overwhelmed and then I'll try Stefan, panic, be like I'm not I shouldn't spend this money on myself like I'm the whole opposite. I have a fake Prada that I could have definitely spent

$1,500 to get an actual Prada was refused to do it. It's one of my friends at some point. It's truly iconic. I mean it's a piece of nylon slap a Prada logo on it. Because in my head I never understand. Like, how do you validate that you want to invest your money into designer? Here's the thing. It's interesting because there are certain things I invest in and certain things I don't. I'm very picky about what I buy. For instance, the Armas bag that I bought, I bought it for what? $10,000. Immediately it's worth $40. Really? Yes. I could resell that bag, which I would never, that bag is more important than my first

child. I could resell that bag for 40. Wait, you could literally just live a career reselling Hermes. You could. Or would they get mad at you? Well, you get caught and they never, they blacklist you. You can't, you can't. I love what you know all this tea about it and I don't know any. Well, Charles Gross taught me everything I know. Charles Gross, yes.

He's the real king of Armes. Like, I just, here's the thing. He's the king of Armez. I just fucking shop. Yes. Like, that's the difference. Like, he knows, if you think I know anything, he knows so much more. do you have any huge buying regrets so many i could list like 10 there's a pair of green tweed shenelle slingbacks from 2019 that haunt me in my sleep every night i look for them almost way too often how much were they

it's not that they were expensive i just couldn't get a hold of them and i they sold out and they sold out and it's so funny because when i said shopping regrets i meant like you bought it and you hate it and you're like no i wasn't able to get more oh no no no there's nothing that i bought that i regret for the most part because I'm really picky I really do and you know your vibe but I think about what I'm gonna buy how would you describe your style eclectic oh yeah eclectic oh I love eclectic yeah I'm newly designing my apartment with the eclectic vibe like I got like a cute couch I'll show you later I'll show you I'm see I am newly into like investing in myself and not seeing it as like selfish I was very like heart of myself like treat yourself exactly mind you I'm a tourist like

everything. I'm a Libra rising Torres Sun. I don't know if you know anything about astronomy. No, I do. I do. I get along with... I am like the queen of treating myself. Like everything is like, treat yourself. Yes. Steve, with me, I'm a Leo, Virgo, Scorpio. So there's a lot of negativity. A lot of negative self-talk. Oh, the Virgo. You're like my mom. My mom is Leo.

Sorry, Virgo Scorpio. Yes. Yes. So I, I'm kind of like, you don't even deserve this. Like, you need to work harder on this kind of shit. I need more of that. We both could probably use a balance. I have to read, when you Google you, not to, like, in general, it goes, people ask, who's Audrey Peters? And it has such a, like, cool, I guess Gothamag wrote it and they, like, put it up in a little thesis.

Oh my God, yeah, I forgot about that. It's actually cute as fuck. She's one of the most polarizing people on TikTok. I'm like, it's a little strong. I'm like, people aren't like, fuck Audrey Peters all the time. But anyway, but it's because you're very blunt about your plastic surgery, which I think makes people and comfy because you're doing what you should do? Like you're normalizing it?

Here's the thing. Like everyone is like so shocked that I'm so open about plastic surgery. First of all, I still look like me. So like I'm not understanding what the big deal is. It's not like I'm fucking Bella Hedatid up in this bitch. But. Well, thank you for calling that out.

I don't understand how it's not spoken about. And let me make myself clear. She has unbelievable plastic surgery. Go off my queen, slay the house boots, but she's plastic. Like, it's not deniable. Yeah. But it's like, As I just remember so vividly being like 13 when Instagram came out and like scrolling through

my feed and discovering like Instagram models before they were a thing now like the Insta hose and they all were perfectly symmetrical as an asymmetrical queen that was really foreign to me before my two nose jobs I was like so fucking confused you know did you ever watch Orange is the New Black? Yes I love I had Joe Caputo's nose. No like dead ass that was my nose and all I could think about was like I don't have a flat stomach like them like I don't have perfect lips like them mine are so thin like my face is so asymmetrical my nose is out of whack and I realized after college not even in college like oh bitch that's because they're getting everything done and even if it's really well done even if it's like the most beautiful plastic surgery it just looks like

them but better it's done so I felt like if I was going to do that plus the face tune but then when I her a TikTok, obviously, like, you know, things became free, like filler, you know, Botox, all of those things. Like candy. It became free for me because I had a platform. And, you know, of course, doctors don't necessarily tell you, you can do this in my office, but you have to post it. They'll say, just say you came and saw me. And you don't have to disclaim what you did, but like, you know, you know, tip for tat. And that's where you can make that decision. Do I pay for it, but not tell anyone and keep it a secret or go and be like just open about it. And that was for me like there's no way that the only reason I'm getting any of the stuff done

is because I have an audience. That's the only reason. It's free because of them. Doctors reach out to me because of them. What am I going to do? Use the platform that they gave me to be dishonest with them. Like, bitch, if I had an influencer that I was supporting and she had a fire nose job and I could tell she had a nose job or a lip filler, tell me where you got the fire nose job so I can go.

Yes. no I'm obsessed with it I because I've had a complicated relationship with plastic surgery I've been very like anti it in the past where I basically was like before you go figure out internally like why you're doing it are you insecure of things just because people are telling you and it wasn't actually you but then I like evolved to being like if you've been bullied for some shit like you fix that shit if there's something that you just like hate about yourself you fix that shit if you want and then I evolved more to being like okay it's this like fluid process that certain people I think it's like you know I will say again Belladie's just a great example I think it's just like if there's something that really bothers you about yourself as long as you look like you still why not just take care of it if you're going to be insecure about it it's and you can afford it you have those means you're privileged enough why not just take care of it it's a luxury that you're lucky to have yes that being said what I personally don't vibe with is

completely changing the way you look yes like actually the craziest transformation is Brooklyn Beckham's wife. That transformation is the craziest you've ever seen. It's crazy. I do follow all those accounts, like the, that it shows the, before or after. It's called like, shit, I forgot. But they're really good. Watch me be on there.

No, no, no, you're not on there. But it's just like. But it's good for your mental health to be like, hey, you know, it's like maybe she's born with it. Maybe it's Maybeline, you know? Maybe it's classic surgery. But, like, I don't really personally believe in changing yourself to be totally different.

what you have with, you know, incisions or like, whatever. But, like, that's when I'm like, all right, real it back in. But then do you feel like every girl, if you don't get plastic surgery, you feel behind? Here's the thing. I do, but there's no way that plastic surgery is going to go away. So it's just an unfortunate reality. Yeah. Like, I mean, listen, there are some girls.

And if they have this thick skin, I'm so proud and impressed with them that they're like, oh, I don't care. Like, it's all fake. I don't care. That's amazing. I think that there's a lot of girls who won't think that way and that they're going to feel like I need it. And as much as that.

sucks. Doctors aren't going away. Botox isn't going. It's just never going to go away. I'm not saying go do it. Either come to peace with it about yourself or do it. Exactly. And I do think it's important too. You'll see like a Victoria's Secret model is getting cheated on. You know, J-Lo is getting cheated on. These are the most beautiful women in the world. So true. Beauty does not equate. Exactly. Emerada. Beauty does not equate to like find to relationships working or you being fully happy with yourself like it's a one facet of so many different things um but you being open about it there's like a confidence to it that is like very attractive because also i feel like you got to pair your plastic surgery with good fucking energy you know i was just gonna say like you can't be a frigid bitch

and also have fake lips you can't but it's literally like going up to a girl and being i love your pants and she's just like thanks i was born with them i want yeah thanks and they're only available to me. No, I want her to tell me when she got him. How much are they? These bitches are the fucking worst where you're like, where'd you get that shirt? And they're like, oh, I don't know. Like my mom bought it for me. I know your mom didn't buy it for you. You're lying, bitch. Where did you get it from? I was with someone else the other day and we were talking about love fillers. And she was like, by the way, like, I have them. And I go, they look amazing. I can't tell at all. And she gave me all the tea. And immediately like, there's a confidence that you're just like,

it's a part of you that you did that people are doing. And I'm, what, what is like the hardest part of you being open about it online, do you think? I don't really have any... There's a reason not a lot of people are doing it. I don't have any part of me that feels like it's hard, you know? Like, because to me, it's just so fucking obvious. Like, what? I'm going to show up,

like, when I did my stomach, like, what was I going to do? Like, suddenly start doing bikini TikToks when I literally have never done bikini TikToks and all of a sudden have a perfectly flat stomach. You have to say your body looks insane. Thank you. It wasn't cheap. But the thing is, like, what was I going to do? And I do have to say, I was talking to my bestie page.

and how we talk about it we're talking about something and I go oh my god do you have to see this girl Audrey her stuff was amazing so that's what ends up people saying people aren't talking shit about people like unless she got work done it's like what's really funny

is that you never believe how many people have texted me asking me what it was like being like I want it and I'm like oh so I was thinking what everyone else was thinking I just actually did it and I'm the one who's talking about it

but it was just kind of like what was I going to do like show up on TikTok start doing like summer get ready's with me with a bikini and have a perfectly flat stomach when it was very clear I didn't have one before with kind of like a pooch

with like my pants before like there was no way like it would be honestly more embarrassing for me in my opinion to be dishonest about it like that's so much more embarrassing so like for me it's not hard it would be more embarrassing to be quite about it I mean it's like Kylie Jenner for like

bro like Chloe Kardashian having like her seventh face of the week no I know but that's what's crazy is influencers who are the biggest in the world have not gotten to the point that you're at where it's like people aren't following you guys because we think you're genetically gifted we're following you for like a lot of other things like I'm sorry like Kim yeah I mean I can tell you right now she's gone through it like having done it myself and having seen my body in the mirror every single day I know what lipo looks

like I can tell you wow it's just so obvious Chloe has gone through at least I would I would argue you three rounds. No tea, no shade. My question to you is, how do you get to the point where you don't look in the mirror and go, but I want more, but I could do more, but I could do more. And I feel, if you asked me in a year, I don't know. Because my question, because I actually, I haven't, I haven't done anything yet. It is addictive.

That's the thing. It's addictive. I want those people like, I've never smoked a cigarette. Like, I don't trust myself. I don't trust myself. What's the best case? I start liking cigarettes. Reds. Here's the thing with plastic surgery. So I've only ever gone under anesthesia for plastic

surgery twice because of my nose. For the lipos I've done, it was not, there was no anesthesia. It was laughing gas. Here's the thing. You know, it's not like it's painless. It's not like it's like you walk in and out and you're like, oh, I'm a new woman. I've a flat stomach now. Yeah, you don't just like pay a couple thousand dollars and boom. Listen, it wasn't painful. It wasn't pain less like it's here's the thing the reason that it could never like listen like I'm not black china like yeah like black china's out here probably on like her six db out like girl you must have some thick skin I'm tired like I'm fucking tired also surgery scary like going on very when you have to say it's like it's really I don't know if it's there's two reasons I don't think that it'll ever get taken too far one

it's fucking expensive so unless you're actually Kim yeah like are you just going to keep dropping 20K on surgeries? You'd never be able to afford to MS again. Right, literally. Like at that point, it's going to be the bagger of the surgery. Like, and quite frankly, I'd rather have the bag. I'd appreciate some price immediately. Like, I'm just going to keep sagging as I get older.

That, but also, like, it's unsafe to go under anesthesia a certain amount of times in your life. Like, past a certain amount of times. For sure. It's really unsafe. And then as you get older, you're really not supposed to get under, go under anesthesia. In fact, you're actually supposed to, save the times that you need anesthesia.

I do have an issue with Bella Hadid. I have a real issue. And because people are just like, they like love her as a person and they don't know her. I feel bad because her mom made her eat in almond a day. The abuse that that girl had to go undergo. That's why I justify her plastic surgery. I do. My thing is if all these people are looking up to you and they want to be you and everyone's like,

she's iconic in every way. It's like, and then you have to be honest. Then you lie. I'd rather her not say shit. I'd rather her be like, I don't want to comment on it because that's saying, look, I'm going to. I don't disagree. I think that Kim is worse. Yes.

I think the Kardashians are not even like uncompably worse. Also, Kim is 40. It's just so. Like there's 40 old women looking at her being like that's what I should look like. If you want to keep getting your BBL reversed, like go by all means queen. But like to be the most influential. Like to be the most influential family in the world. and not say anything about it when you know millions and millions of little girls are looking up to you

wondering why they don't look like you like I wouldn't be able to live with myself you're 100% right I guess that's I positive surgery gives me a lot of different emotions that I feel and one of them is like that's why I appreciate what you do so much and that it's like it's it's a reality it's happening like bro I'm not on my like eighth boob job man like if I was Kim I'd probably be embarrassed to say I'm on like my fifth round of lipo true you know what I mean like it's easy for me because I'm like, yeah, like, go to Dr. Miller, get your nose done. Like, that's so easy for me. Yeah.

If I was on, like, my fifth fucking nose job, like, they must actually, in retrospect, because, like, listen, I don't, I'm a very secure, confident person. I tweaked things about myself that I didn't like. But I'm, like, I'm done. Like, I'm good. Like, I'm over it. I, you have to be unhappy and insecure to be that deep into it to continuously do it. You know what I mean?

And that's probably why they don't share it. it's like any addiction where it's not about the addiction anyway it's like something internal but also you talked about like how you had hardships with your nose job and I feel like so many people related to that I don't know anyone who hasn't had two nose jobs like if you have one you usually have two because it's like it's no one ever gets it right the first time so when you got it you hated it so here's the thing to be fair my first nose job I didn't realize I hated it until TikTok I knew I knew that something was wrong like so the whole thing was that he was supposed to make it straight shave the bump down I had a bump a Middle Eastern bump which I kept actually but um I wanted him to shave it down a bit

I wanted to keep the character but I'll still be a Greek goddess literally um and I was supposed to breathe right so straight you know shave and then breathe I'd prefer breathing but if it looks better without I'll figure it out fully but I mean he basically did none of the above like the straight it was not straight the bump um he just didn't do he just didn't really do anything the surgery was 45 minutes 45 minutes no jobs are typically like three to four hours yeah where'd you find him um he's a friend he's a family friend yeah and my mother and i have had screaming matches about how i want to docks him and she's like you cannot do that and i'm like i want to fucking burn his establishment to the ground i know it's a hard place to be because you kind of want to warn people but

You know it's a harder place to be when your mom is fucking mad at you. True. When mom's happy, everyone's happy. I'm not dealing with that. So unfortunately, he will go unnamed. But I just didn't even really notice that it didn't get straighter. I think everyone just told me it looked good. And I was 18.

So I was like, oh, whatever. The breathing will improve in time. The breathing never. It is the center of your face. So sometimes, like, it not changing that much was probably better. Totally. Not in this case, but yes. Yes.

But it was just kind of like, I, I thought, lot of time went on, the breathing would get better. It did not. But I forgot about it. And then I forgot about how it's not really straight. And I was like, oh, the bump's kind of gone. Then when I got on TikTok, all anyone talked about was how crooked my nose was, how crooked it was, how he's symmetrical I was. And it didn't bother me for a long time. And to be clear, I didn't get my nose done because of TikTok. That's not what I wanted to do. I couldn't breathe in the first place. Like, I really couldn't breathe. I actually started reading this book about how you're not supposed to breathe through your mouth. And it really freaked me out.

that I can't I could not at the time breathe through my nose so I was like all right what really pushed me to the edge is that you know I don't want to be an influencer forever like I will always have a platform hopefully but like you want to ranch in Montana eventually with no I want to be on TV I was like oh we're getting away from the line we're not we're not doing that we're not no one's slowing down here it's like we're going to be upstate New York with a cabin I could I'd rather die than be in a mountain mountains are not for me. I do want to be, I don't want to be an influencer forever. Like, I want to expand. I want to grow. I want to be bigger. I want to be on TV. And, you know, the camera not only adds 10 pounds,

but it really isn't that flattering on a TV style camera. Like, if I'm not looking like great on, on like a shitty iPhone quality camera, like, what am I going to fucking look like on TV? Do you want to do, like, talk show type stuff? I don't know what it's going to look like. I just know I want to be on TV. It's funny because I manifested, I was like doing marketing and stuff after college I hated my life and I done I done some sports broadcasting college and I was like I think I just want to do video like I live like I just want to be on camera and in like two years I was on a cable TV reality show and I'm so I'm telling you keep manifesting that kind of shit and then you will evolve towards like where you work best because reality TV is an ideal for certain for some I would do it

it just it would be dependent on like the circumstance I could see you doing like in a professional type upsetting like business women type thing or like lifestyle type stuff. I'm obsessed with Morgan's doer. So anything. So is Paige. I'm obsessed with her. And she's like then by the way, the nicest person I've ever met. You met her. So we became mutuals. She followed me and I actually almost fainted. What do you do when like someone you love follows you? Um, I try to keep it cool, but with her I actually could not contain myself. Did you message her? Fully. Now she like responds to my stories and I actually, I hope she, she follows me. She's going to see this on the film fair. I melt every time.

No, you're giving her fucking crud. I melt every time she does because if my, like, 13-year-old self in 2011 when Rich Kids of Beverly Hills came out, or was it 2013? 2013. In 2013, when Rich Kids of Beverly Hills came out and I was like 15 years old. What a great castage show. If I had known that she would follow me on Instagram, oh, my God, I'd be hospitalized. I'd go into a, I'd go into, like, I'd have a conipion.

And she's literally, I had a phone call with her, like asking for career advice. And when I tell you, she is like, you know, they say to never meet your heroes because some people can be real assholes. And then all of a sudden, that image of them that you had in your head is destroyed. Yeah. I was so nervous to get on the phone with her because I was like, man. I mean, the fact she even agreed to that. If she's a bitch, this is just going to fucking suck.

Yeah. She exceeded my expectations. She was so kind. Wow. So genuine. So kind, so authentic. When did you know that you liked being on camera? I've always loved being on camera.

So you know. I always know. You know. I always know. Yeah. And it's funny. That's what I feel like I've, I feel like I've, I feel like, it's like the YouTube of our generation. Yes. Where like people who have a lot of talent that haven't been like picked by an agency or whatever can get. It's like an audition. Yeah. Totally. Yeah. And it's like the people choose what they are. It's not the industry, which can be like so complicated. It's such an interesting shift in the industry that now it was like this quote I saw ages ago that was like for the first. time in the history of entertainment, the audience gets to pick who is famous opposed to, you know, people within the industry, which is really crazy. Yes. And who has better pulse on what's going on than people who are consuming? Totally. A little pivot, how's your mental health? How's the anxiety? How's the depression? Are we both? Are we neither? Are we one or the other? You know, they're always creeping around. Okay, cool. You know, I mean, as a New Yorker. Yeah. Never 100%. you can't also have a sense of humor without a little mental illness no that's what builds character yeah

yeah do you feel like buying designer helps your mental health huh um i would say for a second i get a high for a second i'm like i feel complete and then i feel empty again yeah later yeah i hang it up in my closet and then 10 minutes later i'm like well back to square one are you in therapy always oh good for you always when did you start i'm like when i was six years old my parents thought that they really fucked me up by getting divorced at six months old so you're like i didn't know the moment they were like ah man this girl's mentally ill they put me straight into an office good for them no sleigh like literally great for them my mom says to this day she's like the best thing i ever could have done for you is put you in therapy but it's also the worst thing i ever could have done for

myself because it's not possible for me to win an argument because I'm so logical and rational and you like probably understand how she works in and out. I'm a very empathetic person. It's really for the most part easy for me to read people. There are some wild cards, but like for the most part I can and even if I don't understand someone, I'm really receptive. Yeah. So I can really process things well. Wow. How when do you decide when to like take therapy breaks? Do you ever take therapy breaks? Yeah. Um, funny enough, I felt like I was doing really well, uh, when I feel like I don't have a lot to talk about when I feel like I'm doing really well and things are going really well

for consistent periods of time, right? Like a couple weeks isn't going to cut it. Because I don't like when I get to the point where I'm like, let's, let's think of a problem because it's not like. Right. Then I take a break. Then I go away for like however long. And then of course like anxiety creeps back in. I have trouble like telling therapists I need to break though oh my therapy really does your is your therapist not like welcome to breaks i haven't even brought it up i haven't even brought it up see my therapist will literally be like you shouldn't be in therapy like call me when you need something like i'm being your crutch right now and i'm like claudia sleigh i do think i really relate to those memes that are like the therapist

being like okay is this like a dark trauma dump or is it a gossip session and like i fully like when i was in reality tv i was like okay get your no pet out because there's a lot of dramas that just went down and I was like I was just so in crazy drama all the time and then as that calmed down then I was just like you have trouble cleaning my room no it gets to a point where like you don't have that much to talk about and you don't want to create issues when there aren't totally which I'm capable of and you might have had the same problem for ages and she'll look at me and be like you know how to fix the problem yeah you're not fixing the problem yes you can pay me to talk about this but you're wasting your money literally

I'll be like, I'm so tired. I overbooked myself and she's like, yeah, we've spoken about this. You keep doing every week. So to answer your question, like, no, I'm not afraid. But she's also not afraid, which I really appreciate her. Yeah, I've had some that are like, I don't think you should stop. And I'm like, really? Because I feel fine.

I feel fucking epic. And it's like two days later. Have you ever broken up a therapist? Yeah. I've never broken up a therapist. That's, I've, it's more like I was with someone during like specific time and then I like to move on to the next. interesting to like get a new perspective from people so okay actually that's not true i've broken up the therapist because it's not like i've been the same fucking therapist since i had this one i it wasn't

so much a breakup it didn't feel like a breakup because for me it was simple like my therapist from when i was six until i was like 18 he was a guy and i started having like girl stuff that i was like we're not gonna discuss like coochy problems like we're not we're not talking about this and he was like i've we've done good work here yeah like i i think you're i'm confident and you have to be comfortable right and he was like I so get you on a woman he referred me to who I have now we love a referral yeah he was great but I've never had an experience with therapist and a lot of my friends had where they're like I think you're kind of stupid and I don't want to be your patient yeah you know what I mean like I don't think you're helpful yeah I don't want to be

your patient yeah I've never had that I'm trying to think of like my worst therapist experience okay well I did have this like older lady who was amazing but I literally was like okay at work this girl's like not tagging me and she's tagging other people and insa stories and I was like it was all like I was working a social media company and she was like I don't understand any of this and I'm like and then like they like sub tweeted me and she's like she just didn't understand any of it and I'm like it's real fucking drama so at some point I was like I don't think she like gets the magnitude of like social media problem right that I was dealing totally so sometimes you sometimes I do like of a younger, like, person. I remember with my therapist, I was like, well, you don't understand. Like, I did a close friend's story, and I put him on the close friend story, and he didn't watch it. But, like, my circle was green. So that means he was, like, either purposely avoiding my stories or, like, he just, like, didn't want to watch my stories. And she was like, I. Most of our anxiety is stemming from social media. So if your person doesn't get it. I was

like he didn't click the green circle and she was like I feel like there needs to be like therapists who specialize and influences because there's some therapists in the city who like all the comedians go to and I'm like you guys you're all just trying to make him laugh and you're competing over who can make him laugh wait I'm dying that's so funny I'm saying it I don't think he's a good therapist I've dated guys who went to him it's not working and you all just like are getting your egos fed by him but um yeah I it's finding a therapist is is difficult, but I do think, like, you know in your gut, but it's hard interviewing because you have to, like, trauma dump to everyone.

Totally. It's exhausting. It's exhausting. But it's awesome that you've had, like, a little mental health partner with you. Okay, we're going to play a game. Okay, let's play. You're doing amazing. It's called The Seven Deadly Sins.

Seven Deadly Sins. What are you greedy about? Everything. Mm. I'm greedy I'm greedy I'm greedy Mm-hmm

You're just like yes Like just overall I'm greedy Do you money Money You love making it It's never enough Yeah I don't know if that's ambition

Or greed But it's funny Because you started With a gig That didn't pay a lot Yeah Did you see kind of long term I always knew

I'd make a lot of money But like I didn't Know in what magnitude I had no fucking clue Like I had no idea I feel like you kind of Have this attitude too Like

You're not afraid of spending it and not having any? Do you feel like the more you spend, the more you make? Did I make that? So I have, I mean, I have a really unique situation in that if I buy a Kelly, my video gets 8 million views and all of a sudden the Kelly paid for itself. And I have like 100,000 more followers, you know what I mean? You're so right.

It's like. But that's like very intelligent thinking. Someone could not think that way. And that's why I justify a lot of my purchases. But at the same time, like, it's just like for me, it's not so much in the shopping. It's like, yes, I'm greedy in shopping. I love to shop. I can always shop.

But like, at the same time for me, it's like, okay, let's say I get a brand deal for X amount of dollars. And then I hear someone else got a brand deal for X amount of dollars. I'm so happy for them. I'm not a jealous person at all. Actually, that's one of my strengths. I'm really not a jealous person. I'm the biggest cheerleader.

But I'll hear one of my friends get a brand deal with X, Y, and Z. And it was for X. And I just thought I had a great brand deal. And I'm like, next thing you know, I'm calling up a manager. And I'm like, why could, knowing that she got me the best possible rate. Like my manager is the. Like, there's no way she didn't get me the best possible rate. But all of a sudden I'm like, well, now my new goal is this.

But that and that you have to have the attitude to like grow. Yeah, but it is greedy. But I do think that in the women will be called greedy. Like think of color daddy. Like they were called greedy being like, we're getting so many views. We're not going paid this amount of money. And Joe Rogan's getting paid that. Yeah.

And they were getting paid nothing near. And people like, they're greedy. Where like a dude would be like, I want to be paid the rate that people are paid. Yeah. And I also feel like, again, how you're. so open about your plastic surgery girls being open about like good deals or like sometimes i've told multiple people they've been like is that a good like deal and i'm like absolutely not absolutely not but if people aren't communicating they'll no you have to be open about it also think about how much

brands used to pay for like a tv spot insane they're saving money with us they're saving saving um it's funny you said you aren't envious of people but if you had to who are you envious of or what kind of type of person do you have envy towards um no there's definitely people that I'm envious have I'm just trying to think you know what I'm envious have people who aren't materialistic someone who's not materialistic because listen I love nice things I wish I was less materialistic it's just not it's about something about myself I've accepted it's not going away but I wish I was less materialistic it's so funny the concept of being materialistic you wonder like I guess it could be like where you're from or like what you saw your parents liked

or your friends around you because like I was never materialistic in that I but I was a tennis player so I was like I was I was focusing on like I need to win all my matches right so it's like you find a different obsession but recently I've become more materialistic and I've become overwhelmed by the amount of things right do you have a good organization process when you're like collecting all your shit oh I'm the most organized person you've ever met so it's a thing I'm creative crazy Leo so like I started accumulating shit and then I literally had a mental like breakdown and I was like I need to be a minimalist I need to go back to like jeans and a t-shirt I'm definitely I know. For me, I'm, like, the most eclectic, like, everything. I, like, I feel like shit,

but I'm very, but you don't get overwhelmed by it. I'm so organized. Do you have a good closet? Oh, insane. I want to see you do more stuff of that. So it's unsafe. I want to. It's unsafe. I know people who've gotten robbed because they've done like closet stuff. Oh, shit. I would love to. Are you kidding me? Because I'm thinking more like, you know, like, you know, for my 29 when they're like, come look in my closet. I would die to do that and I would do it for like architectural digest. But, yes. Or maybe even like smaller, like just organizational stuff, like how you do your, I can do it like pieces by pieces. I could never do one big one because I'm scared of it.

Or like how you organize like your serums. Right, right, right. Yeah. Look at me. I'm trying to figure it. I'm trying to. Yeah. But I, it's funny because I want a little more of like, you in my life.

Oh, you're sweet. I can live like. I need more of you. I'm in, uh, I mean, uh, people thought I lived in like a hospital room in the past because of they were like, it's just white and there's food on the floor. Well, it's the last time you experienced extreme. wrath or anger? Extreme. Like two weekends ago. What happened? I've always suffered from anger issues. Oh, I love that. You're like, I'm a... Here's the thing. We love. Here's the thing. I've gone anger

management so as a kid. Wait, what's your nationality? I'm half Lebanese, half American. Spicy. So that Middle Eastern spice. Yeah. Here's the thing. It takes a lot to get me mad. like I don't get mad easily in the slightest I had a huge fight over towels with my boyfriend huge you go for me to get mad it has to be a serious topic and these towels I wanted a lavender color and they were tan

and I lost my shit it's a long story but I got really upset over towels and it was justified I don't take it back okay so you won the argument I obviously won the argument. But I was very upset. But that's some like... All is well. There are new towels.

That's fine. That like year and a half relationship type fights like when you've been with each other for a long time and you're like, I have a bone to pick. I felt bad exploding at the end because I was like, I did warn. I did. You don't know the whole background of the story. Yeah. You didn't just snap immediately. It wasn't just like an immediate snap.

Like I was upset about the towels. But here's the thing about me. I also cool off really quick. Like I'll snap. It'll be 10 minutes of. absolute hell. Yeah. And then I'll be like, do you want to go good ice cream?

I have a friend like that. I'm really, I just get exhausted. To the point where when they like lose it, I'm literally like, don't even react, guys. They'll be fine. They need to do this. They need to let it out. And then I cool off. And then five minutes later, I'm like, okay, like, want to snuggle.

Yeah. Like, let's go get ice cream. For me, it takes forever to ever get actually mad. But once you get me to that point, it's like, I'm half Sicilian. So I'm like, you're done. I'm never speaking you again. I don't trust you. I never forgive you.

And it's over forever. I'm dead. No, I mean, I'm quick, but I also forgive quickly. I forget and forgive quickly. That's good. That's actually healthy. When was the last time you were a sloth? Every day.

Oh, I love that. I'm a bed queen. Do you have a pet? I don't. Okay, I don't, you're going to, I don't know how you're going to react. You need to get a cat. Oh, no. You need to.

I don't want a cat. You're afraid it's going to get, like, dirt stuff. I don't dislike cats. I just don't want a cat. Do you want a dog? I would love a dog. But it's not fair to not be home. I'm never home.

True. You don't understand. You travel a lot. My friends call me the grandfather from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory because you know how he like never gets out of bed and then miraculously he can walk. Yeah, that's me. Well, that's like me too. I feel like I'm either 100 or zero.

Like I'm either all over the fucking world or I'm in my bed. I don't want to sit on my couch. Why would I sit on my couch when I could get in bed? So you work in bed too. I do all my editing. I do everything in my bed. Yes, horizontal life. I'm a bed queen.

I need to be horizontal. But then you love traveling. I love traveling. How do you decide in your year, now that you're an entrepreneur, like fully, when you're traveling, how do you, like, how do you decide with that kind of freedom? For me, it's kind of simple because, like, I live in New York City. It's kind of, I actually think New York City in the summer is really fun. If you stay, there's a lot of fun things to do.

But the weather is not it. So, just in terms of the temperature and the humidity. Yeah. So for me, it's pretty simple. Like summer, I dip. Fall is important for events and work to be here. So I stay in the fall. and then spring I'm here as well

because also important for work events blah blah blah and then winter gets frigid and no one leaves their house anyway so I like to go to somewhere warmer or like you know something fun like L.A. Obsessed. Have you been going L.A. a lot?

My best friend lives there so I get to go all the time. Oh, that's fine. And you could like do pods and like... Yeah, it's fun. Oh my God, that's so exciting. Okay. What was last time you let you're proud of your ego in the way of something? How's your ego?

huge huge I love your honesty my head is so far up my ass I do say when I first started going viral on TikTok I was just joke I'm like I've changed since TikTok Oh it's not about that

It is not about internet fame It is not about internet fame What is it about? I just think I'm such a bad bitch Yeah You go honestly The internet fame is low key embarrassing It's everything

No seriously it's like TikTok's like I couldn't imagine being on a dating app now because when I met my boyfriend, I was still working at the magazine. I still working at hers. And if someone who goes to you, they don't see anything. Right. There was nothing there. Like I still very much had a platform when we met. But like on my hinge, it said like, you know, assistant at Hearst Magazines. Like he knew I had my platform and he loved it. He thought it was hilarious before we even went on the date. Like we were DMing and like blah, blah, like we were back and forth and he knew. But it was not like when people would ask me what I did.

I was like, oh, I work here. Like, and then they were like, oh, but she also does TikTok because she's so funny. Like, now I'd have to be like, influencer, content creator? I end up saying like content creator more. I don't know what's worse. I can't decide anymore. I used to think it was better. I don't know how I feel anymore.

Now I get to say I'm a comic, but I used to have to be like, I'm on reality TV. And that was so, you had to answer so many questions about that. But I feel like everyone who has a following is an influencer. Yeah. And we just have to kind of accept. accept it. No, you're an influencer. But to say I'm an influencer, I've never said out loud. No, I have and it's embarrassing. It's embarrassing. Like, God help me if I'm ever on Hinge again. When was the last time you lusted over someone? So besides your boy toy, do you have like a

celebrity crush? I do. Oh my God. I was just thinking of him the other day. Who was it? He's so hot. Fuck. I literally was like, he's so hot. Feeling like a TV show? Yes. No, he's famous. I'm not a really celebrity-oriented at all. Who was it? Very New York of you. We're bored by celebrities. I'm so bored. I don't care. We're like, how many time is Leo going to walk his dog in the West Village? Literally, he's with Jihad Snoose Fest.

Like, I'm trying to think, who was it? He's so hot. Let me get back to me on that one, I'll tell you. And with your current guy, is he the kind of guy you thought you'd be with? No, I never thought I'd be with a guy who has Navy sheets. I'm obsessed. I love that. That's why I love him. Oh my God. It's so cute. We also, yeah, Navy Sheets and that's a joke. He's the most kind, thoughtful, amazing boyfriend I literally could ever ask for. He's like just the kindest soul, the sweetest soul. So I always knew I wanted someone really, really kind. I didn't

think that they would be like a beer drinking Navy sheet sleeper. Is he kind of? Did he live in Mary Hill? Yes, he did. Wow. The devil was working on you. It's like our joke. It is a joke. He'll be like, yeah, like, it's a joke amongst, like, him and his friends that he ended up with me or I ended up with him because he's everything that I used to make fun of.

He doesn't go on your TikToks either, right? Very much offline. Obsessed with that. Yeah. There is something hot about keeping your man mystery. Yeah, I just, it's not his thing. I don't want. It's, first of all, my thing.

The attention's on me. First of all, first of all, get out. Spall hits on me. But more importantly, like, I would never, he didn't sign up for this. I did. I never want to breach his privacy, none of that. What is more unattractive than meeting a guy and him being like, can you tag me in that? That's never happened to me, but I actually just threw up in my mouth a little.

Literally. Yeah, that's awful. So we love a, like, behind the scenes. No, he'll be like, can you take that down? I don't like that. I'm in the background of something. And I'm like, oh, I'm so sorry. Yeah.

okay final question what advice would you give to the little devils on when you're in your hell and it's dark and it's scary how to cope every single day it gets a little bit better and you don't realize it gets a little bit better and one day you'll wake up and you'll feel more yourself than you ever have before oh i love that because you know when sometimes you'll play that game with yourself like before i went through that horrible thing i miss her i miss that innocent girl yeah when it's like you're actually so much more yourself after you've gone through that. It's so true. Like the best breakup advice I ever got from a breakup I had in college was from a friend of

mine and she was like, you know, cry as much as you want. And it's not even about a breakup. Like if you're going through a tough time, this applies to like anything. Cry out your eyes. Be miserable. Let yourself feel. Watch movies. And every single day you'll cry a little less.

Every single day you'll feel a little bit better. And one day you're just going to wake up and feel so much more whole than you ever have in your whole life. Because, yeah, it's almost like how pressure makes diamonds. It really, like, does create a you that you, a strength that you didn't even know you had. Yeah. Oh, I love that so much. Audrey, where can people follow you, watch you? Give me all the goods.

I'm on TikTok at Audrey Peters and Instagram at the Audrey Peters. I'm not a narcissist. Audrey Peters was just taken. And I've tried bribing her. and she won't give me the handle. She's like, give me the armeh. No, she, first of all, doesn't answer, but she will not give me the handle.

Rude. So rude. Literally so rude. The real Audrey Peters, at least you didn't say real. It would have been too many letters. I'm not that much of a loser. Thank you guys so much for coming to hell, and we'll talk to you later.

Bye!
