Hey, Lady Gang, welcome to Flashback Friday,
where we bring some of our favorite Lady Gang episodes
from the vault to you in the feed.
We have over 600 episodes of this podcast,
and whether you're an OG and you've heard this episode before
or you're a new listener and we're just bringing this up
and you had no idea we had this person on our podcast,
well, you're welcome.
Small caveat here.
We are an imperfect group of trio of ladies,
and we've been podcasting for almost six and a half years.
If something we said in this podcast doesn't align,
with Lady Gang 2020. Please give us grace. For instance, there was a period on Lady Gang where
I was not into Taylor Swift. It was the reputation era. I wasn't feeling what she was begging, but now
I'm like a Swifty again. And so I just don't want you to hold me to that because we're all growing
and learning and our opinions change pretty much every day. Without further ado, welcome to Flashback
Friday. Well, what is this? Welcome to the Fempire. That's amazing. Say that again. The Fempire.
Things are about to change around here.
It's time to catch up with the girl gang.
Kelty Knight, Becca Tobin, and Jack Vanek.
Honestly, guys, 2016 is amazing.
I'm just saying, this year so far has been the bees McNeese.
The bees McNeese?
McNeese.
Is that a new thing?
It is new for 2016.
I want to thank everyone and say hey, and thanks for joining the Fempire Podcast.
We're so excited to be here, and honestly, we're just having the time of our lives making
this podcast, and it's so great that you're listening to us on podcastone.com, that you're
going to iTunes, that you're leaving us a five-star review, and that you're subscribing
because what's happening is that people are listening to an episode, and then three weeks
later, they're like, oh, there's another one?
Yes, bitches.
There's one every Tuesday.
You get a new episode of the FemPyre Podcast, so subscribe, and then it'll automatically
come to your podcast on your little smartphone, and it'll be awesome.
And follow us on at FemPyre Podcast on Instagram because Jack has been posting redonkulous
photos of her bangs, and it's amazing, and who doesn't want to see that on their feed?
When everyone's taking selfies, we just post very embarrassing things about ourselves.
So, on that note, we're very excited about our guest, who's coming up in a minute, minute, minute.
But, Becca, what should we start with?
Okay, it is time for...
Good Week.
Yes, it is.
Bad Week.
Oh, no.
Okay, to kick off Good Week, Bad Week, I'm going to start this week.
I will never start.
I love this.
I'm looking up something on my phone currently because it's part of my Good Week, but I think I'm actually going to start with Bad Week.
Oh, no.
I was wondering why you're on your phone.
I'm like, Becca just doesn't care anymore.
I just I've given up I'm over it I'm on tinder no I'm just kidding um okay so I promised myself
I wouldn't go online and like read our reviews right oh god oh that's Kelty's job um so I got
I got on there and I found myself reading some reviews and um there was one that was like a
little bit upsetting to me and it was hosts are trying way too hard to be relevant oh yeah I saw
that one there's a couple not great ones but i just have something to say to you kitty cat 69
that's not her name i'm protecting her identity even though i shouldn't but everybody can go find
it okay if you may be right if by relevant you mean like succeeding in this industry sure and
you know what i'm sorry if you had told the 18 year old becca that by going to school for singing
and dancing later on in life the only way that you could be relevant is to like make a sex tape
with ray j or start a podcast i think that it's kind of rude that you are you know bagging on our
hustle yeah i don't come to your office and yell at you for trying to just make a buck so please
don't come into my space and you know champagne drinking yeah this girl with a shitty education
has no other like tools and or skills so like yes i'm trying to be relevant and i'm sorry
also i had an instagram picture that had 782 likes so who's relevant now bitches that would
be like my worst instagram picture hey jack shut up okay so that was the bone i had to pick
listen guys if you want to go on there and like talk shit fine but i'm gonna bring it up on the
podcast and we're gonna say your name next time and i'm gonna make fun of you what are you doing
with your life huh i wish there was a link that we could like go to them yeah right okay but here's
my good week okay we have some really fun fans out there who tweet us all the time i love it so much
it makes getting shit talked on the internet worth it so these two girls sent me a screenshot
did you guys get this what a screenshot of their conversation texting with each other oh my god
wait was it their good week bad week no it was them talking about one of our episodes and how
we were talking about placenta yeah with leah michelle we were talking about eating your
placenta so these girls are going back and forth they sent me the whole conversation on twitter
and this one girl writes that's so nasty did you guys know it's said that if you make your
significant other eat slash drink your period blood he'll be in love with you for like ever
i think you just put it in their spaghetti or something oh my god wait who said wait but like
who said this like a scientist no fans i know but who said i don't know someone someone's teaching
them these things i don't know but i just really really appreciate i think her name is tamera
and her saying she's gonna put it in their spaghetti tamera you need to write us and let
us know how this spaghetti situation turns out it's so good i mean that's disgusting but that
was my good week it really really no we do have pretty much the best fans ever like the tweets
and them following along oh it's amazing they're so happy everybody is as funny as us which is
like that's a thing it kind of makes me sad it's rare we're funnier than everybody else but i
maybe we're not really no no maybe we're not that funny okay kelty um should we ask jack about her
interesting oh damn it yeah damn it you do should i go first so we end on jack i don't know no i
want to get into the jack juice do you want to ask me questions what's your good week no good
week bad week okay well so my good week is basically that i am not the token single girl
in the vampire anymore which i'm like i'm happy for you the main reason i'm excited about this
is because these two bitches have talked about having a significant others episode
and invite our boyfriends, and it'll be so cool.
And then they look at me like I'm this, like, sad, depressed little, I don't know, whatever.
And I thought I was going to have to bring a bottle of wine and, like, sit in a corner and chug it
while you guys have your lovers here.
But now, but now, I have a boy to bring.
And that's all you're telling us.
Well, I was thinking I would tell how we met because the story is kind of awesome.
Okay, yep.
and everybody knows how obsessed I am with Tinder
or was obsessed with Tinder, and we did not...
Was.
Past Tent, better close that account, girl.
It's been closed.
We did not meet on Tinder,
but if Tinder didn't exist,
we would have never, like, remet.
Sorry, my phone's going off.
It's him.
It probably is.
I love you.
Can't stop thinking about last night.
I just ate your period blood in my spaghetti.
I'm going to try that.
Well, actually, I'm not because I can't cook.
okay so how did tinder help you meet okay so i met him like a year and a half ago at the bungalow
has anybody been to the bungalow yes i have my favorite place debauchery on the face of this
earth it makes me so happy i love going there it's just a bunch of beautiful people dressed
up really nice and whatever so i met him last year because his friend was trying to tell my
girlfriends that he was patrick swayze's son and showing pictures of patrick swayze on a horse on
his phone was the way that he was trying to explain this okay so we're just like whatever
he invited us to his table we had some free drinks i saw the most beautiful man i've ever seen in my
life and it was him it was him and but we all just like kind of hung out nothing crazy whatever we
took a picture together that i did not remember taking because i usually drink like three bottles
of wine at the bungalow and you know that was it it was fun we all hung out no big deal fast
forward to like a month and a half ago i'm on tinder swiping around match with this guy and
this guy messages me and he's like oh i'm in a cab with my friend scott he says he knows you and
you're like an awesome girl and i'm like who the hell i don't know first of all everybody knows
jack no jack is so i'm famous i'm so famous oh my god i can't even walk down the street you're so
relevant uh yeah good i they must have been missing me on that word of the week
yeah um so he's like oh my my friend knows you he says you're awesome blah blah and i'm like i
don't know who the hell this he gave me his full name i'm like i don't know who that is so i like
search him on facebook and his profile pops up and i'm like oh my god this is like the hottest guy
i've ever seen in my life oh my god so i was like okay tinder guy thank you for the intro i'm gonna
message this guy now and scott's gonna be mine and i never messaged guys ever it was just it was
you know good for you now here's a question what have you slept with him
no but i don't know what is this kind of lady are you i don't know 1955 lady i'm not a lady
wow okay kind of a lady more she's more woman not yet a girl not yet a woman yeah um sounds
like you had a good week anything bad about the week i don't think you get a bad week
i mean i was going to talk about making a murderer for my bad week oh i know did you
finish it no i'm only on episode three i mean it doesn't matter we know what happens in the end
he's still in jail but it's insane and it makes me really sad and i was crying last night while
i actually got the most upset i only watched the first episode and when they talked about his iq
i was like and i'm done like it's almost like it's really it's hard but i have a question i know this
is gonna sound really lame what's like a normal iq 120 i think it's like 120 130 i don't know
high iq is like 170 right i think so he had 70 yeah which is low i think brendan not a yeah which
is like i can't right right right it's low yeah yeah yeah it's hard so he doesn't know better he
doesn't know better it's it's low no it's all so effed up it's the whole thing it makes me so angry
it makes me so i just wanted to go through the tv and punch all the cops and then hug his mom
her mom with the little doll face and the
jowls she's been frowning
her whole life and so her cheeks are like in little
waddles around her crown line
so sad
I love you Steven I think you're innocent
free Steven
alright Kelty
well you guys kind of came in
with a light vanilla good week bad week
and I'm about to throw it down
so sometimes
when you're a D-list celebrity
oh my god I'm just kidding
wait i'll start with my good list i'll start with my good week this week i was at an award show
and i wore a couture dress and i looked amazing and i ended up on one two three best dress list
that's amazing because let's be honest i've been on every worst dress list that's ever been
ever so that made me really happy now here's the bad part can we put those photos on the
vampire instagram by the way all the bad ones yeah like the time oh no good one i'll tell you
We'll put the one from like when I first moved to LA and I got invited to the HBO Big Love
premiere and I thought, oh my God, I'm so famous.
I'm going to go.
And I was wearing a black top shop dress and one of those fur hats.
You know, when it was like, I have this picture hat with the, then you have the gloves, like
the spirit hood and a heel, not a hat.
That's basically like a hood.
It's a hood, a spirit, a hood without a spirit hood and a stiletto, honey, as my big moment
to shine.
We've come a long way, baby, but let's do the before and after Pablo Sebastian.
Thank you. Thank you. Anyway, I was very excited about that. Here's the bad week. So this is what happened. I'm on the red carpet and it's raining in LA. So it's like, it's very closed and very small. And I almost got arrested because they had put up this gate between the carpet is like on one side and then all the media is on the other side.
And this fire marshal, whoever you are, says that only a certain amount of people can be on the red part of the actual carpet and everyone else has to be behind the gate like we are cows at a farm.
Now, it is tight, so tight packed.
Like there's probably six people in my crew in a space that one person should be.
not to mention it is raining and so we are six people are surrounded by 400 other crew members
standing in puddles of water up to our ankles ruining my shoes holding electrical equipment
and wires and batteries and all the things that can electrocute you so i call the fire marshal
over and i was like listen dude here's the thing i totally understand i understand you want me to
stand behind this gate it's not gonna be good for my dress secondly it's not gonna be good for my
interviews because I'm now like five foot away from everyone, but you can't honestly sit there
and tell me that it is safer for me to be standing on this side where I can't move in a puddle of
water with this electrical wire running through it. Like you can't tell me that's safer. And he's
like, I'm not going to have to get you to leave. And I was like, Oh my God. So then dude brings
out a step stool and offers his hand to me so that I can step stool up the step stool. And then
in my couture gown that's probably worth more than my mortgage i had to one leg over and one
leg over over the gate to jump over to be in my position in media jail oh that's bad it's all
right it was nice of him to bring a stool though i thought he was just you're gonna have to continue
to stand on the stool he put you on a pedestal no it was so i just had a stool that she deserves
well then i also sell kate hudson that night and kate hudson's face and i was like
fuck you're so pretty it's great oh my god her face well when you're getting boned by like a
14 year old i'm sure you're going to be feeling all kinds of youth and beauty no that's the thing
she had a glow nick jonas kate hudson yes what hey welcome allegedly allegedly how old is she
she's like our age um older no much older she's 39 is she maybe wow hot mama at 40 ish anyway
either way she looks i'll tell you this there are two women in hollywood who look like they have had
an orgasm six orgasms every time before they come to a carpet and they are kate hudson and jennifer
aniston jennifer aniston looked looks so i just got fucked every time she comes to a carpet
anyway all right well good job guys jackson love kelty almost got arrested and i'm about to get
arrested for burning down a fan's non-fans house we're gonna find you
okay what's going on this is the vampire okay guys we're back with our guest today and i'm
very excited about this because we probably haven't had a guest on the vampire that is as
dramatic as this has ever been stassi schroeder's here you know her best probably from vanderpump
roles, but she's got a whole lot of stuff going on. She's got her own podcast straight up with
Stassi. She, um, is a fashionista. She's got a massive following on social media. And one of
the things that I was concerned about inviting you to the podcast, actually, because I saw your face
on the line, cause we've never met in real life. And I was like, well, she might be too pretty.
Like, I'm not sure if I wanted to sit next to you. And now that I'm sitting next to you,
my concerns were correct my concerns were correct um i find this very interesting so first of all
hi hi i wasn't sure if i could talk about you're afraid she was mouthing to us all i wanted i just
want to know if like i look like i've had six orgasms today because i haven't i don't think
any of us have it's okay no we're all looking just like a little clearly dry just a little
bleak i'm like palm springs right now um here's the thing i wanted to to bring up that i found
so interesting about you before we get into all of the life in Hollywood stuff is I had no idea
about the hurricane Katrina story and stuff. Yeah. No idea that your family lived through this. Can
you talk about that a little bit? I mean, it's kind of depressing. I mean, you know, you woke
up, I woke up one day and my parents came into my room and this happens like every single year in
New Orleans, your parents come in and they're like, there's a hurricane warning. We need to
get out. Yeah. And nothing ever really happens. But this time we did leave and just everything
then was gone it's weird yeah it was very very weird when you say everything i mean is this is
like your yearbooks your clothing your walkman your well you're not that old but anyway when
you left you just you just left right thinking you're gonna come back home yes and you know it
was so weird and i was like you know what maybe i'll like i don't know like take some stuff down
from my shelves and like put it on the ground like oddly thinking that like the roof was gonna
come off and like somehow like my train of thought wasn't there so every i put everything on the
ground not realizing that no the water is going to like raise from the ground yeah like i don't
know what my logic was i was like it must have been like a making of the murderer like my iq
must have been like soup no like i need to take an iq test now not thinking um well it's kind of
incredible like to overcome something like that and then still keep going you know what i mean
well i i always say i was really lucky that it was i was at the age that i was because you know
you're when you're 16 or 17 years old you can bounce back so quickly you're not so tied to
everything and you're not so young that you're kind of like traumatized by it you kind of just
like roll with it you know so speaking of rolling you rolled all the way to hollywood totes so what
were you doing before you became reality tv royalty i was going to college at loyola marymount
and actually serving at sir yeah so this is real that was not like tv is real sometimes guys yeah
there you go on a scale of like what percentage is real um i mean it listen it's a reality show
it's manipulated yes like they're it's not fake but it's not you know what i'm saying yeah i just
really want to know how you dated jacks for that long i don't want to talk about it i'm so like i
i just blame it on age i blame it on age and you don't even blame everything on age it's great
you're like i was young and dumb yes exactly i see the appeal i mean it's it's like if you're
young and dumb i understand like he's he's an attractive guy he's got some charm well listen
i didn't have a show to watch to show me like what he was right like i had no idea now do you
think she was living in a hole what what i have no idea like every time every person who dates him
i'm like have you not watched your boyfriend on television that's like the best thing too it's
like yes it's the ultimate stalking you want to you know what i mean yeah like shit that we can't
see on Instagram, it's right there. Yeah. You can see all the lows. So what did you learn? This is
for all the ladies listening from that. And you did it in a very public way, but what did you
learn about yourself and what did you learn about relationships moving forward? Um, God, I wouldn't,
I feel like it just made me like a little more cynical to be honest. You know what I mean? Cause
I'm just like, Oh, if I can, like someone can like trick me for two years, like what else can
people do to me you know i guess it just made me a little tougher a little tougher for sure i love
that though that's a good honest answer it's it's kind of depressing but okay life beats you down
guys so you're on the show and then you're taking a break from the show and so when that happens i
know that you are going back we're going to talk about that but like how hard is it to go from
you are on one of the most watched reality shows of all time as a main character then
to and now i'm gonna pop back into real life um i'm gonna be honest like i really try and
and live my life while we're filming the way that i i normally would so that there's no like
on camera stassi and not on camera stassi or something like that oh i just referenced myself
and like i referred to myself in the third person but you are like shoot me like fuck okay uh so i
don't really feel like there's that big of a difference i don't know it's it's it's been my
life for so long but i'm concerned with you saying that because people you seem lovely but people say
that you were like the antagonist like you were no i'm gonna tell you as a professional reality
television watcher and analyzer i'm gonna tell you her role on the show and i think it's the
role that i've played in much of my life so i kind of could identify so you're you might be saying
harsh things but every single person is sitting there being like it's kind of true yeah i mean
you're like the truth teller truth tea thanks girl you take it to truth town and you know what
it's like everybody might be like oh what a bitch but in the back of their minds they're like well
she's kind of true it's kind of true like she's and everybody probably wishes they had the balls
to say it that's the thing and and so i think that it wasn't necessarily an antagonist i think it was
just like not afraid to speak your mind because really your observations and the way you sort of
saw people for who they are was very accurate like to me as a viewer well listen i got the
smart girls realizing that i'm the shit you know what i mean that's all that matters you've got
the relevant girls oh can i just say i loathe that word i relevant hate i get people writing
all the time on my instagram like you're just trying to be relevant i'm like who came up with
this word what does that mean someone relevant like what is it even like i don't it ill it's
the word like i'm posting pictures on instagram does that make me relevant if relevant means i
got paid then hell i'm trying i'm trying so hard i'm so thirsty for that sorry sorry my relevant
social media life is making me bills okay um how is this double-edged sword though of these two
things like you can't go whole foods people say can come on we're talking like i'm like a z-lister
you know what I mean no no no no I'm on the z-list and you're not there you're not at the
same parties you're definitely listen she was not at the gifting suite that we went to today
that was the z-list um so what's happening you're going back I am going but you said I'm never going
back I know like oh so embarrassing it was like I like see that's when this becomes a problem when
like my mouth becomes a problem because i don't filter myself and i'm like everything that i'm
feeling i'm just gonna tell everyone and then my feelings change in a week and then i look like i'm
bipolar like i have problems that's just because everybody else is insane and they're the ones that
are like freaking out but you're like dude i just changed my mind i just changed my mind god so
you're going back and lisa is your boss well not anymore not anymore yeah but she's on the show
yeah so i guess she's kind of a boss yeah jinxie the dog that always has coats on because it has
bad skin yeah it's like me it is true becca you're the same i wish i could wear a jacket on my face
are what are you scared are you nervous what are you feeling do you have a new love interest
i've been in a relationship for two and a half years so the same guy that he doesn't want anything
to do with television so it's probably no one knows who he is but um mystery man no yeah coming
back was actually super scary yeah i will say and i took a like quite a few beatings like i kind of
resolved that like i'm coming back they're not gonna like it you know i'm gonna go to each of
them i know i'm gonna have to go to each of them individually and just kind of like just sit there
and like take it you know what i mean so yeah it wasn't the most fun was that your choice to go
there and and sort of work it out with each person or was it sort of like the producers being like
you need to have a resolution um well i came back for the show to the show for a specific
person or a couple of people that i felt like i um i didn't handle the friendship the way that
i feel like i should have and maybe i cut things off way too quickly but with coming back to the
show means that you have to deal with everybody else that's around it so then you know right yeah
all right hollywood heartbreak what is the moment since this has all happened in hollywood
that you thought this is too hard this is too much crap this is too much drama i'm out like
back home um the vanderpump rules season three reunion like last reunion tell me about when
kristin had sex with jacks and it came no not even that one wait tell us tell us for those who
didn't see it well i just think because all last season i was just like i'm so done with this like
i'm not this isn't my life like i don't i don't fight about this shit you know what i mean like
what are you guys doing to each other and then i alienated myself on the show so then when the
reunion rolled around everyone was just like waiting to pounce and it was so miserable i went
home and just i was like i'm not gonna cry during the reunion and i went home and sobbed and took
like a million xanax you know mixed it with some you know and uh yeah i was just like i that's when
i realized like i don't want to come back like i don't want to do another season but then and then
i like had a break and then you did and then i was like well you know what like i built this show
like i built this yes boss lady so i'm like i i have to come in and you know stir shit up listen
everyone everyone's jobs are hard um right you're like everyone's jobs are hard so may as well just
go back to that one that's kind of fun right that's so bad i'm getting paid to drink so god
that's all you ever want um your ish what is your ish moment where you were in hollywood and you
thought i'm the shit like this is it right now the paparazzi chase you someone was outside your
house someone sent you a free pair of jeans like what's the moment where you're like hollywood
um it's gonna be it's gonna be a super boring answer but like fashion week being accepted into
like shows and stuff like that and like having them be like okay yes we want you to come it's
like that's all i've ever wanted that's all i've ever wanted is it as fun as it looks for me because
i just love that stuff but like when i like make my friends come with me and they're just like
not into it they're just like they're miserable so i love it because fashion week is kind of funny
because to me i always wanted to go and it looks so glamorous and like front row at michael kors
and then you go there and you're like well shit this is a warehouse and you're it's literally
10 minutes long and you go in there's so much photographers you sit the clothes come out and
then you're out like it's so fast front row pick but it's interesting because it is fun but it's
like man it's a grind it's a kind of a grind fashion week it's exhausting it's so tough it
really is we got dressed up in fabulous clothes and people sent cars when i exhausted i sound
like an ass so tired we always sound like ass so sorry no i'm like i'm like oh my god then i had
to sit front row beside heidi klum and it was like i'm just kidding that's us all the time
champagne problems we're really embarrassing that's why people talk shit on us whatever
That's true.
That's why we're trying to be relevant.
Relevant.
Relevant.
Hot or hungry?
You're hot.
Your face is like insane.
Are you starving yourself like everyone else in Hollywood?
Yes.
Wait.
Yeah.
Thank God.
Thank you.
You are the first person.
Everyone's like, water and air.
No, I really actually like trying to eat like one meal a day.
Oh my God.
Me too.
Me too.
Thank you.
I actually just had half a cookie.
It's the first thing I've eaten all day.
And I was like, I did it.
It sucks.
It really isn't fun.
It's hard to be Hollywood skinny.
Yeah, and I don't like working out.
I am a lazy ass.
It's not fun.
So you're just like, no food then?
No food.
So what's your trick?
My trick?
Yeah, I've sort of done the whole thing where I'm like, I'm going to eat one meal a day.
What meal is it for you that works?
Dinner.
Yeah.
I like get cracked out on coffee and stuff all day long.
I do that as well.
I don't want anyone to follow my...
I'm not giving advice right now.
everyone knows that this is a terrible idea it is a terrible terrible idea and i'm probably
gonna look like i'm 80 in three years but at least she'll be in a size 25 jean yes
um is there a celebrity that you sort of stalk that you follow that you love that you haven't

you just referenced her kate hudson you kind of look like kate hudson that is so nice i have
never gotten that in my life no you do you kind of look like her yeah yeah thank you guys yeah
amazing yeah she's amazing right i just think she is so funny i really love when girls have like
just like such good comedic timing and she seems like she's just like a fun girl to be around she
seems like a girl's girl yeah her body's also like really stupid see she works out though guys
did you fabletics apparently yeah she says yeah you know what's interesting she um has a new motto
for 2016 with her mom why not why not why not i love it i love that too should we only eat dinner
why not should we drink champagne and make a podcast why not it's like you're like a yes man
but in the new like why not i went through a phase of being a yes man i ended up really drunk
i was gonna say i did it i do like specific nights i'll be a yes man and every night i
blackout yeah no i like puked in so many bathrooms and then rallied like what i have to say that's
just saying yes we'll get you i want to take you to an inspirational place yes oh no we don't like
this place is there a do you have a mantra kate has why not but i like to write that like the
goals i'm gonna have for the year and the mantra is like you're so beautiful i'm like keep your
chin up on my mirror do you have a great do you have a mirror message um they make fun of me
because they're jake kelsey is like way too much and becca and i are just super cynical and like
yeah yeah i see i feel like i'm more on like on their side you know like i really don't like
quotes i don't like any of that like cutesy shit like i don't know it's just like it makes me feel
weird so you so you're with us yeah and then it's just how about the girl we all know her we all
have her on our instagram feed the girl who takes endless selfies and posts an inspirational
and then the inspirational quote is the comment and i'm like girl it's the word but that's me
you're describing me it's me because here's the thing okay you're probably a happier person
help me right now okay social media wonders there's two things i want to do every day
one is post what i wear on the show because people give me the free outfits and i want i
have to credit them secondly i want to inspire people to have like a nice life and think about
what they're doing how do i do them both in one post i think you can inspire people without using
some generic like lame ass inspirational no i don't write a generic today she did oprah it was
really good i have to say can i see it i want to see it ask me my phone what i'm talking about is
like at least with the outfit photo you're kind of being like hey girls here's a cute idea for
an outfit okay that's at least like helping because you know i wear bargain basement clothing
like I'm not wearing shit you can't afford I'm talking about the girls who literally like takes
photos from like cleavage yeah and it's always like big boobs in your face right and there's
when you're in a string bikini and they're using facetune so everyone looks like a Kardashian
and it's like so you want to show us this amazing picture that you created of yourself but you want
to make it look like there's a depth there that's true but it's like literally your tits in your
face it starts way in on my thing okay first of all nice outfit so love that um yeah when people
write quotes like this it honestly just like makes me feel like more depressed like why are they so
much happier than i am you know what i mean i'm gonna read you say the quote yeah yes is this
oprah lots of people want to ride with you in the limo but what you want is someone who will take
the bus with you when the limo breaks down don't forget the b emoji like what what is
Why is there a bubble emoji?
Oprah's always like, this is going to tell you stuff.
No?
Anyway.
All right, listen.
Wait, Saucy, I love you because you give her just as much shit as we do.
You can be in the vampire.
Just kidding.
I'm leaving.
You know what?
You do you.
You do me.
No.
And since I have the least amount of followers and likes, obviously what I'm doing is working.
You just got to be a cynical bitch like the rest of us.
I guess.
Am I supposed to be more of a dick?
Yeah, but then you don't get the husband.
See, it's a real – you either have a really strong social media presence or you have a husband.
You can never have both.
Oh, my God.
I don't know which one I want more.
I don't either.
It's a really hard choice.
Last thing I want to ask you is what is the misconception?
Like right now, you're going back on the show.
So many people are talking about it.
The blogs are talking about it.
Clear it up.
Like what is the thing you want kind of everyone to know?
i mean i don't what are people saying i don't know stassi they're saying you're a bitch i'm okay with
that that's fine that's that's okay like that's true yeah i mean come on it's a reality show and
you're only seeing like five minutes of like 500 hours that i filmed and it's like if i hey better
to be the bitch than to be like the wallflower don't be the boring girl i'd rather be a bitch
than be bland yes totally for sure that'll be my mantra someone once said to me someone once said
to me you want to have everyone like you but you want to have a couple people hate you you've
already used that one i think um well i'm very excited that you stopped by and you're gonna
hang out i have one more question yeah go we're not done there is something that is baffling
blowing my mind on this season of vanderpump rules is it the same thing that's like baffling me
james yes who's sleeping with him uh i don't know i am like convinced that he is like a member of
isis like i i am convinced seriously i don't even think that's an outraged i don't think it is
either i don't think anyone should be shocked by that i don't understand it i don't know what's
her name lala whatever lala what yeah that's her name like she's hot yeah very beautiful very
beautiful girl like i know that she's getting she could literally go to one oak and have sex
with leonardo dicaprio tomorrow but like she's having sex with james listen does he have a huge
penis no i think you find out i think it's a show thing okay yeah i mean i think she's like oh james
is on the show she was dating he was dating kristin like let's stir some shit up like right
come on you know what i mean i guess like he looks like the guy from like you know in the mask like
when he puts it on but not him but the bad guy puts it on he looks like the bad guy who just put
on the mat he does he does well you know that's all i wanted to know do you need any more time
i wanted to talk to you about kristin also i because i heard is there going to be a spinoff
a spinoff yeah no one's told me about it i read on some blogs that people are talking about maybe
a spinoff for the two of you you and kristin no one told me that the reality tv blogs no would
you do one uh yeah i mean there's only you know so much longer like i can like film around a
restaurant that i don't work at right you know what i mean like i just like my job yes i need
to stay relevant and hovering around the restaurant like just being in like the back corners like yeah
i'm here did someone just start a fight you know what i mean like um i really appreciate also just
one more thing take your time back on my personal fan meme wait when sheena did her performance
a cup i think season two her pop performance on the on stage at or at sir at sir at her
engagement party you're in your commentary you had a you had like a confessional where you
comment you were commenting on the performance so it might not have been the engagement party
okay but whatever you said i really wish i could pull quotes from the internet right now
it was like the greatest grilling of reality television history like i haven't heard that
wait you you i'm gonna i'm gonna pull it up okay i'm back we'll come back stassi's gonna
stick around and help us all figure out your lives for you during our ask the vampire series
hey ladies funky ask the vampire all right guys welcome welcome back um this is my personal
favorite favorite part of our podcast and it is called ask the vampire and it's when you
users fans are tweeting in users you robots a bunch of robots are tweeting in fake questions
All of our fans are tweeting in questions about their lives, and we are trying to help
you with the best advice that we can give as three blondes having a podcast.
Can I just say, though, it's getting almost insane the amount of people that are writing
in using hashtag Ask the Fempire and writing into our Fempire on our website.
It's crazy because they all come to my phone, and I'm trying to work, and then it's just
like question.
Like I'm, it is making me very excited that so many people are invested and we don't have
time to do all your questions, but we're picking out the best ones.
So write.
Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
It's like now the ante has been upped.
So write some good questions guys.
Okay.
So the first one is from Maria via email and she says, what is the key to achieving your
dreams?
Having a rich dad.
Opening your.
You had that one.
Kelty knew.
That is such a good answer.
having somebody just throw money boning the right person yeah having a sex tape or a sex tape i mean
this is sick but it's true only in hollywood that is yeah that is true i would say um not giving up
at the first no i would say not giving up at like the hundredth no right and i think sometimes how
many times honestly in the past three weeks i've had multiple people come up to me and say i'm
obsessed with the fempire podcast i had that idea with my girlfriends i had that idea i want to do
a podcast with my girlfriends and no one actually put the grind in to make it happen and i think
sometimes everyone has good ideas but can you actually turn an idea into a reality and make it
your dream walk the walk a lot can you move to la and audition and become a famous actress can you
start a clothing line at the warped tour and then turn it into a multi-million dollar brand kelsey
is insane no but like it honestly success doesn't get handed to anybody on a silver platter and i
feel like some people kind of assume that that will happen and you just have to work your ass
off and not give up it's like cheesy and stupid saucy do you have a rich dad well i mean define
rich i guess that's why stassi's been quiet no but what's your key what's your secret you think
i don't know because sometimes when people ask me that i and and i have to be reminded
so hot by the way everybody wait what the hell can i see a pic i'm gonna pull up a picture it's
so weird like a silver fox okay so gross um uh i sometimes feel like things were handed to me
because i love what i do so much and i forget that like no it actually is a job and i grind and like
i've started a website and like i started a podcast and like i forget that it's hard work
you know what i mean because you're having so much fun yeah because i love it that's the key
it's like you just have to find what you love to do and then it doesn't feel like work well i feel
like in order to be successful yeah you have to just like find what's so you you know what I mean
like what are you good at what is like where you shine and like I guess like I shine in terms of
like being cynical and people like it you know being a total bitch someone has to be that that's
a good answer okay so next question is from twitter from melissa loves leah um when you're
feeling confident and someone tries to bring you down how do you handle that and stay positive and
confident well i mean this is you probably i so you i get instagram comments all the time like
you're fat you're ugly you're this you're that you kind of just have honey you have to be
delusional you know what i mean like you have to just like convince yourself that like you are like
a dime the hottest shit you know what i mean like i just have to live in delusion yeah so but i think
it's also you have to understand and this is so your fourth grade you know health coach wording
but anytime i've ever had anyone come at me in a negative way it's always been out of jealousy i
was just gonna say that always because yeah when you're not confident when you're confident with
yourself and what you're doing people can't stand it but you don't talk shit on other people that's
not true that's all no talking is different but i mean like actively going out to a stranger
and like what's wrong with your brain that like you felt like i am going to take the time to type
this awful comment to someone i've never met i think there's a difference between gossiping
talking shit there's such a big difference and being really really cruel and malicious
there is social like for sport girls commentary all the time and then there is like malicious
you go after someone to make their life a living hell and those two things are very different like
i'm gonna be like hit hudson but i think that's for sport which is maybe awful too i don't know
That's for sport.
Listen.
That's the best talking shit
Back up anything.
I mean,
the younger me
would have answered
this question very differently.
You know,
I had some haters in high school.
I peed in their purses.
However,
Wow.
Did you really?
I did.
The aim and stuff
that you had to have.
I peed into a Poland Springs
water bottle
and then I took it
and dumped it
into the girl's purse.
So just a whole
You are terrifying.
in the bottom of her purse.
You were like,
were you a mean girl in high school?
Oh my God.
No, I wasn't a mean girl
but this girl ratted me out did you make them drink your blood your period vagina blood no
but like I made a really nice pasta you want some that would have been a better idea I know
you know what upset me though I hope the people listening though you were brilliant it was kind
of brilliant but what upsets me the most is this was like 10 years 10 plus years ago and like I
didn't get to witness the reaction of her realizing there was piss in her purse so if there was anyone
at pebble brook high school in 2004 at the christmas concert and you were there in the
girl's dressing room i won't say the girl's name say it don't say it don't i'm not gonna say her
name however and maybe she doesn't even know i mean she might not have even known i mean you can
spell or that it was urine until right now you're welcome she was like i thought my purse snitches
get stitches or just pee in their purse so dark okay so that's what i did the old me what's new
what's new you i'm a much more evolved person and i think that the only people's opinion i really do
care about are people who i also respect so my friends my family you know if they have something
kind of like rude to say to me i'm actually going to take that into account and be like maybe i am
being a cunt today however if you're like sarah from michigan who's telling me on my instagram
that my face looks like a turkey like i don't really care i don't know you melissa and maybe
it does you know drop the mic okay all right so renee via the fempire email says i've been sick
i had my bladder removed and will need a full hysterectomy by age 30 i haven't dated anyone
because i feel embarrassed how do i bring up these topics in discussions that's a good question wow
first of all renee you're crazy brave yeah you know that's hard how does that work to get a
bladder removed and then like where does it probably have a colon colonoscopy bag what do
you call it no that's uh do you have a catheter catheter full-time catheter then not sure she
didn't give us details um hysterectomy means you won't be able to have kids probably uh okay i just
feel like we should stop complaining about shit right now probably true renee really brought us
back down to life real life um you know i'm gonna just say get a little deep here and i'm gonna say
life sometimes hands you some very challenging things to deal with and they may seem super
unfair at the time however there's a silver lining everywhere which means the people that
are going to come into your life especially men are going to be incredibly quality people
that's so true yes so you know what you kind of have this automatic filter of douchebags
and really great nice guys because you're not the only person going through this and there are other
people i'm sure who have found love with this or more challenging situations and um you know just
stay positive you're alive you have love on the horizon and i think it shouldn't stop you from
trying to put yourself out there and do things because like you said it's like everybody
everybody's dealing with something different and you never know what that could be with somebody
and i think people are way more open-minded than you would think that they are in situations like
that for sure and also you have to just be honest yeah and to bring it up is awkward but the things
that are so uncomfortable in life are always the things that after you say them you're like oh i'm
so glad that is out yeah and your responses are usually the most rewarding because if you're
honest like that to somebody from in the beginning and their response probably goes above and beyond
what you thought then it's like but also you can't use it as a crutch for your life you know
you have to go out there and and live your life and be your person and don't let that thing you
know put you in a corner and make you feel a way about yourself like you have to be in spite of
the challenges you can't you know you know be the person that's always like well this that's why
nothing will work out for me because this happened you have to be above it you know wow those are
you some great answers i don't even know if i could follow that up like you know what wow
sometimes guys you do you there's some depth there is a little depth not a lot though not
not much that's as much as we can take for one episode for probably the rest of the um
