Good morning, Millennials.
Welcome back to the Morning Toast.
Happy Tuesday.
Yes, that's right.
It is only Tuesday.
Only Tuesday.
Thank God the Morning Toast is here to brighten up your Tuesday morning and deliver the past
five and talk about everything fabulous.
And THO is here to make that brightness even brighter.
Even brighter.
If you thought we couldn't get any brighter, then Theo walked up and was like, what's up,
bitches?
Was like, bam.
We have a funny story to tell you.
Is it about Theo?
Kind of.
Okay.
So I told you, I saw my friends literally for the first time since quarantine was over. And we went to dinner last night and we just had like
so much. Did you go anywhere good? I'm actually went to fabulous kosher restaurant because you
know they say between Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur you should eat kosher as much as possible. And
it's 18 on 81st between second and third. Fabulous fabulous food. And then we were just like there
was so much to catch up on like and someone you know very graciously asked how Theo food. And we were just like, there was so much to catch up on. Like, and someone, you know, very graciously asked how Theo was. And I guess I just didn't realize,
like we talk about him, like he's human and it's so normal. And I've really not seen anyone except
for you, like since quarantine started. And I was talking about, you know, all these new energies
with Michaela and Margo's new puppy Magnolia and how it's, we thought it might affect his spirit,
but it turns out he's just, like, such a star.
And I was just really, really, like, leaning into talking about him
like he was a full-blown human.
Right.
And I guess, like, my friends just, like, weren't used to it.
And they, like, literally looked at me like I had eight heads.
They're like, what are you talking about?
And they were like, oh, it's, like, funny.
I'm like, no, I'm being dead serious.
Like, Theo is a star.
Doing better than ever.
And, like, his mental health is in check. And, like, they, like, funny. I'm like, no, I'm being dead serious. Like, Theo is a star. Doing better than ever. And, like, his mental health is in check.
And, like, they, like, thought I was joking.
And, like, they just did not get, like, at all, like, the vibe that Theo is a human, you know?
Yeah.
Well, you know what I'll say to that?
I feel like when you see your friends, like, you're always going to fancy restaurants or doing this or that.
And they don't actually spend quality time with Theo.
That's true.
So they don't know, like, the level of emotional intelligence that he's capable of. They haven't seen his highs. They haven't seen his lows. They haven't seen him in
the mountain air just like with a spring in his step. Right. And then they haven't seen him back
in the city with the mountain blues. Yeah we actually we can't fault them or blame them because
it's just not their fault. They haven't been privy to firsthand to the wondrous experience that is
Theo. It's so true. So it's not their fault. And I think I just
underscores that they need to spend more time with Theo. And I think everybody needs to spend
more time with Theo. Yeah. And then also right before I went to dinner, just piggybacking off
of our Zara chat yesterday, I already told you this, but I think the podcasters will enjoy this
really awkward experience I had at Zara. So like we said yesterday, you could return Zara to any
store, which is like the best store policy. So I went right before dinner just to return some of the items that we bought um and there was actually
this jacket that I had I'm so proud of you for returning so like if I don't return within the
first 24 hours of knowing that it's not gonna work bag in the corner for five years and one
day I will wear it just to make it worth the never returning yeah so um I went to the Zara
and there was actually this jacket that I really liked, but just didn't fit me. It was like meant to be cropped and that just doesn't work for me.
So I thought maybe if I sized up, it would like fit normally.
So I went searching around the store to look for an XL on the jacket and they did not have
it.
So whatever, I was like giving up.
Went to the register, returned all the items.
And the guy was like, did you want any of these in another size?
Like I could order it and ship it to your house.
I'm like, oh my God, fabulous.
I mean, yes, I need that pink jacket and in an XL and then it was like kind of quiet you know when
I say XL I'm like XL like I'm not screaming it I'm not like if I was a small I would be like
I'll have a small but no I'm like I'll have an XL and so a few seconds go by he's like doing a
little dilly-dally on his phone he was like and he said it's so loud by the way. He's like, you wanted a double XL, right? And I'm like, no, could you quiet down, please?
I wanted an XL.
And then it was just like really awkward because it was just like, I don't know if it would have been awkward if it was like, did you want a double XL, extra small?
But it was just weird.
And then he made it even weirder by like acknowledging it.
He was like, oh, I'm sorry.
I didn't mean to like assume your size.
And I'm like, oh it's like it's totally
fine and I literally never wanted to die more and there were like so many people in line I was just
like I know they're all overhearing this incredibly painful painful uh social interaction and that's
my story and that's why I just shop online yeah that's really rough um it's like nice that he
apologized but I think him acknowledging and like it wasn wasn't, he didn't do anything wrong.
I know.
But you know, like he's going home, like telling his friends and going on his podcast saying
like, oh my God, I'm so embarrassing.
Like I slipped up and it's just pit inducing all around.
You know, it was really like really one of the most awkward interactions of my life.
And I'm like, not awkward.
Like, yeah, you're not.
I'm like a beast.
Like I can make a situation funny. Like there was just no salvaging this interaction it was really painful did you
get the jacket though yes it's being shipped to my house very exciting that is very exciting was
it that pink one that I pulled up for you yeah did you get the pants the pants fit fine oh you
got them but the jacket is like cropped with like an electric not electric elastic waistband that
like hugs your belly you know what I got ahirt, a last minute addition to my pile. And it has that elastic waistband that hugs your
belly. And I do wish I sized up in it. I don't think I'm going to go take it back. I'll just
wear it and you guys will see one day. Very exciting. Very exciting. Um, do you go and get
that sweater with the pockets that you want that you eyed on your way out? No, the store that I
went to was like a much smaller version. We went to one on 52nd and Madison uh and 5th and if you live in the city
it is like the best Zara ever I think it's considered like the New York flagship store
it's so big it's like triple the size of every store in the city I think that's just Zara no
no because there's also one on Lex that's super big not as big as 5th across from Bloomingdale
everyone knows like the 52nd and 5th one is best one. I never heard that. I went to the one across from Bloomingdale's because it was
near my dinner and it was tiny in comparison. It's still two floors but they didn't have half
the inventory. Interesting. So New York Steens. 52nd and Fifth Zara is the best one. Head on over
there. I'm wearing Zara today. My shirt this one's like has a little issue because the buttons like
there's a gap in between the buttons but we're all close here. You say Zara or Zara like this is like the. I know yesterday you
were saying it one way and I was saying it the other way. I can't it's like data or data. I don't
know what I say until I say it. Yeah and sometimes I say data and sometimes I say data. Yeah it just
depends on how I'm feeling. Yeah I'm updated updated to iOS 14. That's like kind of been like
the big change in my life this week and honestly I usually really really do not like updating my
phone but I would say it's a welcome change. It life this week. And honestly, I usually really, really do not like updating my phone.
But I would say it's a welcome change.
It's just refreshing.
It's very similar.
Lots of new things.
Pretty much everything's the same.
Can't recommend enough.
I need to get a Genius Bar appointment because my screen is still cracked from the day I filmed the day in the Life Log for Patreon.
Oh my god.
And I need a new screen.
But like I've been having a hard time getting appointments.
Like that's my current cross to bear.
Yeah, the Apple Store is just not a place.
That I want to be.
And I want to invest in.
No, no.
I don't want to invest my time and my energy in the Apple Store.
But I have to go.
At a certain point, you just have to go.
Or I have to get a new phone, but I just got a new phone.
So I'm not going to do that.

our exclusive members only facebook group which is the toast after dark which is a safe place on
the internet which is very rare these days very very rare very special much like thio who's just
like nuzzling in my lap. Like this
is kind of the best iteration of THEO. I've been actually watching all of our episodes when I get
home every day because. Oh, what do you think? Is it a good show? I feel like for a while I never
watched our own show, but I think that in order to like always be better and more on top of your
game. You got to watch your game tape. You got to watch your game tape, even though it's my least
favorite thing. Sometimes it's so funny. And I'm always like looking at myself in the camera like Claudia fix your hair so like maybe that's
what I let me fix my hair like just in case future me is wanting me to fix my hair okay um you've
been watching the show and I realized like Theo pretty much exclusively sits on your lap even
though he's my dog and I like lug him here every day just for you to reap the benefits and I just
think changes need to be made we're gonna have to have a meeting after this with me even Theo
I understand I think what he's trying to say, is like he knows that he spends 23 hours of the day with you.
And like, and he loves him and misses him so much.
And he's just throwing me a freaking bone here.
Yeah.
You know?
Well, you know what?
Theo really loves you so much.
It's really, it warms my heart that like he doesn't just like love his parents.
Like he loves, he loves.
He has so much love in his heart.
He loves his grandma, Ben's mom.
He adores. Like literally you have to pry him away from her house i think it's because
she gives him extra treats but whatever i don't i don't do like cheap toys like that no but she
a theo he loves you so much and so you know what i have no choice but to accept it oh my god and i
love and you know i love him so much i know i know and it's like how can i get in the way of that
i would literally throw myself in front of a bus. 100%.
I would run into traffic if it meant to like save his life and mine.
I would take a bullet for him.
100%.
A thousand percent.
A thousand percent.
Love you, TH.
Love him so much.
Last night I finished the book for the Redheads, The Unraveling of Cassidy Holmes.
It was so good.
It's like so pop culture centric.
It was kind of like dark and depressing, but the imagery that's like the scene, the picture that's painted, it's like so early 2000s, like girl band.
Oh, cute.
You know, VMAs, music videos, etc.
And it was a really good book.
So I'm really excited to talk about it with the Redheads.
And you know, it's never too late to become a Redhead.
New episode drops next Thursday.
That is so much time for you to read a good book.
So check it out.
And then check out all of our other TNN shows.
Lauren Elizabeth has constantly dropping new episodes.

And The Snatchler comes back in October.
Wow.
I'm excited for The Snatchler to re-snatch.
Yeah.
Re-snatch your hearts.
She's snatching hearts all over the nation.
That also means that The Bachelor comes back, which I'm also excited for because as I've
been watching Love Island and they've really created like a bubble there where
I'm watching it and it no longer, they're filming it like yesterday, but it doesn't feel like it's
in a pandemic and it's really nice to watch. It's making me excited for The Bachelor. Because
they're in a bubble. Yeah. And because it's like real shows getting back to what they do. Yeah.
You know? Yeah. I'm like really not looking forward to the Claire part of the season, but
very much looking forward to the Taysh Claire part of the season but very much
looking forward to the Tayshia part of the season yeah I think it'll be interesting yeah so and
it'll be something to talk about that's not housewives yes we're gonna ease up on the housewives
talk as promised um and deliver the fast five do you say it's time to dive right in I think it's
time to get right into the fast five stories that you need to know before you wake up and take a bite out of your morning toast. And Jackie, I know that you
have this platform and you have your job to do, but I don't want to get emotional, but
I have something to say. And if I may just grab the floor really quick. Use your voice.
Today's episode is brought to you by NuX. At NuX, our mission is to provide our customers with the highest quality products at a reasonable
price.
With years of experience in sourcing, manufacturing, and development, their goal is to make CBD
accessible to the masses.
We never sacrifice quality, and all of their products are natural, pure, and tested.
So I've actually been in the CBD game for like two years, and I've been taking the NuX
gummies like, I don't know, maybe two months, And I feel as though they're my favorite product so far.
They're very effective. I take CBD a few hours before bed. I find that like my anxiety is at
an all time high before bed because you're just like left with your thoughts like laying around.
So I take it a few hours before bed and I feel like I'm so calm before bed. I like watch my
shows so peacefully. And then having trouble falling asleep
is like one of the worst things ever.
So the CBD gummies really just like
check all the boxes for me.
They taste really, really good.
They have 15 milligrams of broad spectrum CBD per gummy.
They're vegan and they're made with all natural ingredients.
They have no artificial colors, flavors, or sweeteners.
They are THC free.
They're grown in the USA with USA grown hemp. They are lab tested
and they're under $10. So it's really fabulous for anyone who's looking for a fun and unique way to
take CBD. They're really sweet and actually very, very delicious. Very tasty. They're $9.99 for the
pack of gummies and they're a consistent dose every time. So like when I've been on my CBD journey,
it's like some of the products like are just not very well made and it's like there's a whole can of gummies and like they all
have different doses so you don't know like what you're taking which is really really frustrating
but NuX each gummy is perfectly dosed the exact same amount which is I feel like really really
important so you know what you're putting in your body agreed visit NuX.com to go purchase some of
their great products you can use the discount code toast 20% off, but just for a limited time.
The website is nu-x.com and the promo code is TOAST for 20% off for a limited time.
It's a fabulous product, fabulous brand.
Can't recommend it enough.
I've been taking CBD for a while and these stand the test of time.
They really do.
They really do.
I was enjoying them last week.
Like take one a few hours before bed, read for me.
Oh, that's nice.
And it's just like, that's how you find your inner peace in the city.
And that's how you wind down.
Like, yes, you can't just like go from like a mile a minute, bed, computer, everything,
TV, and then just like expect to fall asleep.
Like you really need to invest in winding down.
I think it's like a huge wellness thing.
I'm just very into wellness now.
Yeah, you are.
You're really the face of wellness, would you say?
You're the face of inner peace.
Well, that's true.
Yeah.
Okay, first story is such exciting news.
Vanderpump Rules stars Jax Taylor and Brittany Cartwright
are expecting their first child.
There's another Vanderpump Rules baby on the way.
Jax Taylor and Brittany Cartwright are expecting their first child.
The couple, who wed in Kentucky in June 2019,
announced the baby news on Monday on Instagram. Holding up several sonograms in the photos she
shared on her social media, smiles while she and Jax hold her baby bump together.
Quote, mom and dad, the love of our lives is coming soon, she captioned the post.
She said to People Magazine, quote, we've been trying for around five months and we just can't
wait to grow our family. I had the ovulation sticks and all the apps. We were ready to go, said the mom
to be who is currently 11 weeks into her pregnancy. I woke up super early to go to the restroom and
just had a feeling I should take a test. And it was positive. I cried. I laughed. We were just so
happy. Then I took three more tests and cried some more. By the way, I cannot believe how much
has changed within the Vanderpump Rules universe,
like, in the last six months, like, in quarantine.
Like, a couple people got fired.
Three people are now pregnant.
It's just, like, a completely different show.
And, like, quarantine affected it so much, you know?
It really did.
Because I feel like most of these people got pregnant in quarantine.
Yeah.
I'm so happy for Jax and Brittany.
Like, I feel like they've been talking about starting a
family for a long time I think for a while people thought that Brittany was going to be the first
of the group to have kids because at one point it felt like they were just going to be kids forever
right um so I'm really so happy for them yeah I actually texted Brittany and I was like mazel tov
and she was like so happy she said she's like wanted to be a mom forever like more than she
even ever wanted like to be married like she always wanted to be a mom and that's just like what else could
you ask for I feel like we could feel that on the show yeah and you know Jax has had like a very
tumultuous time with the you know passing up his dad and I feel like this is one of those things
that like really brings you full circle in grief and I'm sure they'll do something to like name the
baby after Jax's dad and I don't know I feel like this is just a great path for them to be on like they really are grown up I know they're like 40 so it feels weird but
like they're like kids because they've been on the show for so long it's hard to like break out of
like the box that you became famous in especially when you became famous for being like a wild wild
adult you know it's it's hard to enter the next stage of your life but I'm really happy that a
lot of them are yeah doing that and that they'll all be pregnant together and then have babies and it's
just a whole new generation and I'm just this this news warms my heart yeah and it's just it's like
ideal to be pregnant like when literally all your best friends are pregnant like for the first time
I get I'm sure it makes it like much less intimidating and like scary and it's just like
a nice thing like you and your best friends who have all grown up together like now your kids will grow up together it's so crazy and
they all live in like the same neighborhood like the same house it's it's actually so crazy yeah
no it's even though I don't know if all of them will stay in LA forever but just it's crazy I feel
like if Vanderpump Rules like ever does come to an end I feel like Jax and Brittany will probably
be the first ones to leave like first of all Brittany is just like so connected to Kentucky and like the south and I feel like we've heard Jax complain about LA
like a million times on the show and he's not from there yeah but you never know like now that
they're putting down roots and they have a house and they have friends and the friends that are
gonna have kids like plans change plans change really really beautiful congratulations I don't
know why like this story shocked me even though like they're married and like I've everyone's
pretty much like been waiting for this when I saw it I was like oh my god I was
surprised. I was surprised too and I was really happy. I know what you mean it was kind of
surprising even though like it's the next logical step for them it's just good happy news. Yeah I
guess because there have been already two Vanderpump Rules pregnancy announcements and if
you would have asked me who would have been I would have said Jax and Brittany about both of
them like I really would have never suspected Stassi or Lala.
So now I guess it's just like I forgot, you know?
Yeah.
No, it's very exciting.
It's happy news.
Okay, next up, Emmy 2020 ratings.
The awards viewership sank to an all-time low.
That is the least shocking thing ever because after our discussion yesterday, I went on YouTube and watched like a bunch of people's acceptance speeches and unfortunately I was forced to watch like the
little gimmicks they did on stage with Jimmy Kimmel um and there were a few things I did like I think
when Dan Levy won um they did like a UPS partnership like thanking essential workers and they had like
a real UPS driver give the um announce who won which I thought was very very sweet but like with like this Jennifer Aniston
and like Jason Sudeikis like garbage that they were putting the skits they were putting on stage
like with the fire extinguisher and the Lysol like it was so incredibly stupid and I hope that
they have bad ratings so they know to never fuck like do that again yeah and I know that you had
to get creative because of quarantine and I respect that but there are other award shows who were not nearly as shitty I completely agree there's no
excuse none an average audience of 5.1 million viewers watch the socially distanced ceremony
that's down from last year's already record low of 6.9 million it's a lot of people but like these
award shows are supposed to be like big football games or like you know they're supposed to be like
10 million they should be 20 million everyone watches these shows these celebrities like think
that everyone cares about them but not everyone's watching the award shows I guess it just feels
like a lot because my frame of reference for like ratings is housewives um and I follow like a bunch
of housewives accounts that like always are circulating the housewives numbers and for the
most part each franchise reaches about two million viewers every week and that feels like a lot um and then so it's
like to me everyone in the world watches housewives so it's like if the emmy's got five million wow
that's double you know yeah no i don't think of it that way at all not everyone watches housewives
to me and also housewives aren't on basic cable that's true so it's just yeah I guess five million is really low it
should be similar to like football when you think about the amount of viewers who watch these top
shows like when there was game of thrones on and like how many was a million wow so if those people
care about these actors like what do they tune in to see if their favorites won right like these
shows are nominated because they're so big and they have millions and millions of followers
so wouldn't that translate to the emmys that's a really good point I guess that's how much people hate the Emmys
and and we are those people yeah I can understand I mean not only I feel uh are the you know the
integrity of the Emmys on the decline but given the current you know situation and there wasn't
really like a quote-unquote real award show um it was just less and less people who needed to watch
it by the way what you said yesterday about um how they must have known who was going to win if they brought the trophy to them i guess like
the hazmat suit people went to everyone's house and when they didn't win they walked away with
the trophy so like everyone had a trophy waiting for them at that at their house oh that is so
awkward so like you literally put it in there like you could almost get it in their orbit and then
they didn't get it interesting okay i like that like to me the best part of award shows is truly the element of surprise
which is why like I find regular not this year but most like VMAs to be so meh because I feel
like the artist knows and like it's so coordinated it's like a PR thing um I love like the legit
awards because I love seeing celebrities kind of in that vulnerable position like really wanting
to win and like having to clap when they don't and then being genuinely
surprised that's like one of the best parts of award shows yeah um also next story very funny
Zendaya fans mistake the meaning of upset after historic Emmys 2020 win oh my god okay so I
followed this saga on Twitter because at first New York Post or Page Six released an article. Yes, New York Post released an article.
The tweet was, biggest upset.
Zendaya wins Emmys 2020 over Jennifer Aniston, Laura Linney.
And then her fans, who didn't understand the meaning of upset in this context,
were like, I wasn't upset.
Zendaya's performance in Euphoria was phenomenal.
Oh my god. Okay, so I literally... I literally and someone else no one's upset someone else would hate to see a powerful woman winning an award she deserves I see
oh my god literally so I was following the saga because the tweet was up and I follow
page six and New York Post and there were so many replies and I'm like this is an insane number of
replies for like a regular article and all these kid like stan accounts were freaking out like really trying
to take down page six like thinking that they were coming for Zendaya and I was laughing so hard and
then I love that page six like turned around and made it a story because it's so funny it's so
so funny this is like where like stan twitter is like so toxic sometimes like this is where it's
so funny because at the end of the day it's like just so toxic sometimes like this is where it's so funny
because at the end of the day it's like just a bunch of kids no but also it's like we reported
yesterday like zendaya is the youngest person to win this award and like that's what you get when
a young person wins this award for the first time their young fans don't understand the
miscommunication the language like about them this is just like one of those internet things that i
live for yeah it was a really funny story still really happy for Zendaya yeah fabulous fabulous but
it wasn't upset like going against yeah some of the biggest names in the industry who have been
acting for like a million and who have been nominated multiple times and she won I think
she told I didn't watch I didn't finish Eu, but like that was a show that just like totally took over the conversation. You know what I mean? It was a cultural reset. And a show like that deserves to
win. I feel like that way about Schitt's Creek too. Yes. You know, I don't think the morning
show really did anything of the sort. No. When the morning show like first hit the scene, it was
like such a big deal just because it was Jennifer Aniston and Reese Witherspoon and like a dynamic duo on the same show. And I guess they like alluded to a lot of
like real life things that had happened like within the Me Too movement. But I feel like the
rise and fall of Morning Show was real fucking quick. Yeah, I agree. I never even saw a lick of
it and I'm proud of that. I never finished the first season. It's okay. Okay, next story. Some
exciting interesting news I thought. Mario Didionovic
debuts cosmetics brand Makeup by Mario, and his first launch is all about eyes. So Makeup by
Mario, Kim's makeup artist, is launching a cosmetics brand called Makeup by Mario in
partnership with Sephora, and I just think this is so on point. Yeah, I mean, I'm honestly shocked
that it kind of took him so long to get his own makeup line
because he's kind of been the end-all be-all of like the makeup industry
and just makeup, like celebrity makeup artists.
And like Kim and him like really created this like whole celebrity makeup artist like relationship.
And people respect him so much.
And he's done a bunch of collabs and he did like a Sephora brush collab but I'm just like surprised that it took until
2020 for him to have his own line because for the last I would say like five years he's been at the
head of the makeup industry yeah I think for a while he was consulting with Kim on KKW Beauty
and I think like he's been working really hard and this is like just a really exciting thing for him. The culmination.
The culmination of all of that but I think he's like between his work like he started out working
at Sephora then he's like the biggest celebrity makeup artist in the world then he's kind of
consulting for a huge celebrity makeup brand so like this is the next logical step and I feel like
he has all of the experience for this to be like a major major brand and I love the name because
it's so perfect. It's so perfect and the packaging is so cute it's like a black and white like monochromatic theme um I will
definitely be purchasing I just you'd love to see it like people who just work really hard and get
successful you know yeah I I do really love to see it and it'll be successful because like Kim is
just like obviously going to support it because they both have done so much for each other and
you'd love to see like friends supporting friends yeah you really do I don't know I just thought it was a
really great story I feel like everyone really comes out with a makeup brand these days some
hits some don't but I just feel like this is one that's a no-brainer yeah um I feel like Mario's
actually someone who I wouldn't mind seeing like a YouTube documentary on I feel like he like leads
a very busy life yeah very busy I don't understand how certain makeup artists like at
the height of, you know, when we were doing things, like how they have enough time in the day for all
of the people that they work with. Well, so I feel like when you get to that level, there's such a
high bar. Like I remember one of someone I knew had reached out to like a Mary Phillips or like
one of them, one of the Kardashian makeup people to do them for their wedding um just
like to see what the price would be and not only was like the fee absolutely insane i think like
twenty thousand dollars for the day what you have to pay in like agency fees because they all have
agents now and then the travel for them and an assistant and five-star hotel for like it's insane
like celebrity makeup artists have they themselves become celebrities and the cost of doing business
with them is like i don't think you get someone to do your makeup for without an all-in cost of like $50,000 yeah that eliminates the amount of people
who you can realistically do I don't think Mario is doing like people's wedding makeup but like
he does so many celebrities yeah and he like I don't see do he does Gabrielle Union yeah I don't
know I also think about like Chris Appleton like yeah are we doing like Kim and JLo like don't they
each of them just I don't know how you do both of them I don't know how you could do both of them but like my dream is I mean
I guess like he was here and like he did touch our hair but like I should have taken advantage
of that because ever since like meeting him and then like really starting to follow his work like
he is literally one of the most talented people I would die for him to do my hair okay if you could
have a celebrity makeup artist and hairstylist like like do your thoughts for like the biggest event,
who would you have?
I would definitely do Chris Appleton for my hair.
And I would either do makeup by Ariel
or makeup by Mario to do my face,
like Kardashian, Glam, Galore.
What about you?
I would do makeup by Ariel for my face.
And I would do Justine Marchand for my hair.
Oh, that's a good one.
Or Patrick Ta for my face.
He's like really, really talented.
And he did Addison Rae's and she looked amazing.
Oh, and he's always doing that eyebrow thing.
He does Madelaine's eyebrows and they look so good.
And that's what I need in my life.
It's just so funny how like this industry like created like celebrities from it.
It's fascinating.
But I do think so much of that is on the Kardashians for making like glam,
like the process of glam, you you know an activity in itself like
yeah like the glam rooms in their house yeah and the supporting the filming of glam and it's just
like it's not just something you do in the dark and then you show up in your glam like it's like
a whole process yeah and it's not like I feel like for a while celebrities used to show up at red
carpets like would spend eight hours to get ready and just like show up looking effortless and
wanting people to think like they just like really truly woke up like this.
Whereas the Kardashians were the first people to open up and be like, no, it actually takes
me a full day to look normal.
Yeah.
Yeah, and I also think that plus the advent of Instagram where it's like all the tagging
and the looks and Instagram makeup, like it's just this whole ecosystem now.
And it's one that I truly enjoy.
And it's one that a lot of people are cashing in on.
So many celebrity makeup artists.
I haven't tried anything from Rare Beauty,
but I actually have been watching so many tutorials.
Well, because she's been really hitting the circuit.
Yeah, and I've been watching so many reviews,
and I didn't want to watch only people who she collabed with,
because of course they're going to say only nice things.
I wanted to get some Rare reviews from people with tons of different skin tones
and different needs for products. And honestly, for the most part people really like it it looks
really nice the commercials are great and yes I've been seeing commercials on my tv which is like
crazy next time I casually go into Sephora like maybe I'll pick up a lipstick yeah I feel like
though like at the end of the day like in terms of celebrity makeup like Fenty is always going to
reign supreme and like they were the first to do it with like the most inclusive foundation line.
And everything they released is just like so bomb that.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's it.
That is it.
Fifth and final story.
A little cosmetic news.
Liam McSweeney reveals she got a nose job.
Oh wow.
Liam McSweeney is owning up to her plastic surgery.
The Rahoni star took to her Instagram story on Sunday night to reveal she had a nose job
and show off her bruises.
That's so interesting.
I would never. I never even noticed her nose. I actually noticed her nose only because
she has the exact same nose as her mom and her sister. Oh. And when you're like watching them
together, I don't even know why. I'm not someone who notices noses at all. Me neither. Someone who
get a nose job and I wouldn't know. But I was just trying to find the resemblance between all three
of them because people always were saying that her and her sister looked alike. And then when saw it it was in the nose got it but I thought that she had a nice nose
but I guess it bothered her so she said people are damning me like crazy inquiring why I have
black eyes and asking if I got a nose job asking if I got beat up I'm not trying to hide anything
from anybody I got a rhinoplasty and a septoplasty I could not be happier I just love people who are
transparent about plastic surgery I've been wanting one for so freaking long and now I can also breathe which is great yeah I love people who are transparent
about plastic surgery and I'm excited to see like the genesis of her nose on the next season yeah
well so I actually was talking to you about this off camera yesterday but I wanted to say it on
the show because we had a really long discussion last week about Liam McSweeney um not being able
to negotiate yet her salary with Bravo
because she wanted like some kind of outrageous price jump for a first-time housewife even though
she is a fan favorite and the more I thought about it I changed my mind on it because if we really
want Leah McSweeney like I loved everything about Leah McSweeney except for the fact that like she
doesn't really live like the typical life of what you consider to be a real housewife which is like
big fancy apartment and so you know what if she doesn't have that like Bravo needs to give it to her so that she can have that one
thing that she's missing yeah okay whatever it takes for you to come around yeah but she also
I've heard that she has like not started filming yet because they still haven't negotiated oh no
well sorry there's an article on page six this morning and I saw on Instagram that she responded
to a comment saying like she's coming back there's no and I don't think I ever questioned whether or
not she would come back she was never gonna like walk away after one season, but she is going to get as much
as she can.
Good for her.
Yeah.
She said, she replied to an Instagram comment saying, I'm coming back.
My work here isn't done yet.
No, it's definitely not.
It's definitely not.
So I'm, I'm, I'm happy with that development.
I think that, that they're going to start filming like any day now.
We always say that about
New York like even last year we'd be like it's like they're gonna start filming to next week
well they film at the end of summer I know but I just feel like it's always the end of summer yeah
I just feel like you know and also like with everything getting pushed back they really
should start filming like at the holidays if we're honoring the pushback oh I guess yeah yeah yeah
yeah but I don't think that's I I think they're going to start filming soon.
And then following up
on a story,
I know we said we wouldn't
talk that much about Housewives,
but just one other thing.
We were talking about
that Tali Mellicamp story.
We reported Daily Mail says
that she's going to be
fired this week.
And when we wrapped yesterday,
Page Six was also reporting that.
But now a whole day
has gone by
and there's been no news.
Interesting.
I just took it as fact
after Page Six reported it
that she was gone.
No, I know,
but it's not fact.
Hmm. Because the Housewife always announces she. No, I know. But like, it's not fact. Hmm.
Because like the housewife always announces when she leaves, you know.
Interesting.
I guess maybe she'll wait till.
Oh, no.
Reunion ended.
I don't know.
Something to think about.
Something to think about.
Anything else we want to discuss?
There was no TV on last night.
And no, I watched Love Island.
Now I'm like officially caught up so I can watch the episodes live um and it definitely feels like the last day of camp now that like I don't know ever
since Mackenzie left I just feel like I'm waiting for the show to end and how long does it go on I
don't know I just feel like it's going on forever and I feel like the couples that are together like
are going to stay together and then everyone else just sort of like you know is always head turned like their heads are being turned and there's just no like at a certain
point the show kind of gets over and I feel like that's where we're at um but so I was telling
you about Connor and Mackenzie and he got eliminated last night and then he facetimed
her and like he's gonna go to Arizona and see her. Do they have their phones in the? So yeah they have
phones in the villa because they get text messages from producers that like tell them what they're going to be doing
next but and they are able to take pictures that they like can use on social media and stuff but
I don't think they have like text messaging and and like can make phone calls from it. It's just
like a prop for. Right. For communication with like within the island. Yes. Interesting. And they're
always walking around with the phones which just confuses me like couldn't like they're they're
carrying them at the most inopportune times.
Like, if producers want to reach them, can't they see, like, who has the phone on them
and then just text that person instead of everyone having to carry their phone at all times?
Yeah, these types of shows, like, interest me in terms of the logistics.
Like, how do you logistically keep all these people, like, on an island?
Well, not this time.
But is it usually filmed on an actual island?
Yes, like in Fiji.
Like in Fiji.
Oh, fabulous.
Yeah, and also the logistics of the show
are really interesting.
And then after season one,
you weren't here to stay,
but we had Alex from season one
who was the runner up of last season.
And I literally like 20 questions
just about the logistics of the show.
So if you want to know how the show works,
I would go back and watch that episode
because she answers like all of these questions
about like the texting.
Do they always have to scream?
I got a text.
Why do they scream it? right just all of these really interesting
things that I found to be interesting okay fabulous um I didn't watch anything yesterday
like I had the busiest day of my life just like work work work being a blogger so many emails so
little time um so I didn't get a chance to watch anything Dancing with the Stars was not on last
night it's on tonight but I'm not sure if I want to commit to the season. It is such a big commitment.
Like, it's really like committing to The Bachelor.
Like, it's two hours a week.
Sometimes they do twice a week.
And to be honest, I'm just, like, in this nice period where, like, Real Housewives of
New York is over.
Real Housewives of Beverly Hills is over.
Like, I'm enjoying my evenings.
And now that, like, indoor dining is about to return to New York and outdoor dining is,
like, in full effect, I think I need to start, like, freeing up my life and saying yes to
life and no to TV. I know. I know I think like we need to start hitting the
town no I know yeah and I think like it really hinders my nights out when I know I have to come
home and watch two hours of Dancing with the Stars oh yeah so I think I'm so you need to take the
nights off that you can get like because Wednesday and Thursday or whatever night is always gonna be
rony now and now with Kardashian. So Thursday nights,
Sunday night,
Potomac.
Yeah.
So like if you can get a Monday off before the bachelor comes back,
I would do it.
I think that's off.
I would do it.
I think my journey,
the inner peace doesn't include me watching dancing with the stars,
but it does include me like watching the performances on YouTube later.
You know,
I can commit to that.
I like,
I like that for you.
Yeah.
It's just,
if I've learned anything from this,
you know,
trying and unprecedented time,
it's to take time for yourself and it's okay to be selfish. It've learned anything from this, you know, trying and unprecedented time,
it's to take time for yourself.
And it's okay to be selfish.
It is okay to be selfish.
You know, Ben doesn't really agree, but I do.
No, I think that it is.
It's definitely a grit. And you know who agrees?
T.H.E.O.
Well, he's been really focusing on kind of his self-care routine and just his version of winding down.
Yeah.
And he's always wound down. Like, look at him. He literally lives in a his version of winding down. Yeah. And he's always wound down.
Like, look at him.
He literally lives in a constant state of wound down-ness.
And that is so wonderful.
I'm so jealous of him.
I love him so much.
I think that's all she wrote, though.
Yeah, short show because there was no TV on and, like, no major breaking news.
