Good morning, Millennials, and welcome back to the Toast.
Happy Monday, which should be just terrible.
But here's why it's not, Jax. Ready?
I think I know why.
One, we're together.
And like, seriously, how bad can life be when I'm sitting here with my sis?
Life's good.
Two, it's a short week.
We've got a holiday weekend, a bank holiday,
whatever you want to call it this weekend.
Don't fret.
It's really,
if you think about it, Tuesday. Technically speaking. Yeah, if you want to get technical.
Yeah, no, it's very, very exciting to be embarking on a shirt week. Is that what you thought I was
going to say? No, we have a really exciting afternoon planned. Oh, we do. So that just puts
a pep in the step. Yeah, it's a big BHD. I don't know if you guys know what that is, BHD.
A big Harry day.
We got big plans with Harry today.
Yeah, Harry kind of like scheduled time with me last week today.
I cleared my schedule and I kind of got like extra dressed up.
I showed a little leg for Harry.
Harry loves a little leg.
I think he'll find, I feel like he could play with the prickly hairs on my legs.
They're like fascinating.
I feel like he could play with that for like 30 minutes.
We'll give him a shot. Yeah. We'll see what he what he says it's gonna be his first time at the studio it is and I don't know I guess we should have like cleaned up or something
like gotten some balloons I don't know yeah no he he loves cords and he loves lights he's gonna freak
he loves cords and lights feels like maybe he's taking after his auntie and wants to work in I.T. Maybe you are kind of been his mentor.
Like, yeah, I would say muse.
But sure.
Yeah.
His what is that called?
Inspiration.
Like a person, I guess a mentor.
Yeah.
But like it's not a strong enough word for what Harry and I have.
Yeah.
Do you have a mentor?
That's a really good question.
I think I would say it's not in all walks of life, but in many walks of life, I would consider Brian a mentor good question. I think I would say, not in all walks of life,
but in many walks of life, I would consider Brian a mentor of mine.
Yeah.
Like about business and money.
But I feel like when you have a mentor,
it's like establish that they're your mentor.
Like when I think...
I'm going to text Brian and say like,
do you think you're my mentor?
No, no, that sounds like you're accusing him of
considering himself the mentor.
I'm going to say that...
Would you say you're my mentor?
Would you say that you're my mentor?
Like, I kind of feel like when people have a mentor,
it's like a conversation they have.
Like, will you be my mentor?
Right, no, there's like an interview.
Like, there's like a declaration.
And you're like their chosen one and vice versa.
And it's very flattering to be someone's mentor,
but it's also a huge opportunity to be a mentee.
I also feel like in a lot of ways, like, you mentor because when I think about like okay if I have a decision
to make who do I call yeah like you mom Brian but like a mentor is someone who is like intentionally
shepherding you through the workplace really and your career and like I'm just your big sis and I
love to give you advice that's why I didn't say you at first because it's like so obvious like my mentor I feel like Brian honestly yeah but he's also your
friend like do you I think that's the best type of mentor mentee relationship for sure but he's
like not textbook mentor no no we're but we've never been traditional girlies me and Brian you
know that's true just breaking you know glass ceil and such. I feel like people don't have mentors anymore in shows.
I think it's definitely like an outdated concept.
But it's a nice one.
But I just, I don't know how to get linked up with a mentor.
I certainly don't have a mentor.
No, I think it's definitely hard to find a mentor,
which is why when you have one,
it's like such a sacred bond and relationship.
Yeah.
You don't go through mentors like you go through bosses.
Yeah, no.
And like whatever company you go to, like they still...
Menting.
Even if you met at one company, like they're still your mentor.
They're still menting.
They kind of mentor you forever.
It's a lifelong thing, I feel.
It's kind of a really sweet relationship.
And I feel like there should be more of them.
Well, I'll keep you posted.
Brian hasn't answered me yet.
So I'll keep you posted on whether it's a mutual...
But it's like if we needed...
If we got
mentors they would have to be like kind of big wigs in entertainment or podcasting yeah
who's your dream mentor oh my dream mentor dead or alive Joan Rivers alive
Kelly Clarkson yeah my dream mentor.
Like Taylor, like obviously, but it's like such a lame answer.
No, no, but like really, like Kelly works in every space that like I would want to work in.
Yeah.
Furniture.
Furniture, including talk show.
Right, right.
You know what I mean?
I actually think that she could be of service to me.
I don't know.
I don't really feel like there's anybody out there who I would want to be my mentor.
Thus, just kind of propelling me forward to be the mentor I wish to see in the world.
That's beautiful.
Like, I hope there's millions of young girls out there saying,
my dream mentor is Claudia, you know?
Would you mentor anyone?
Sure.
I feel like I dabble.
I feel like you dabble too, because you are...
Shut up.
What did I call you? The influencer mentor.
The influencer mentor.
Yeah, Jack can basically just call me old, but.
No.
I've gotten comfortable with the title.
But that's really like actually what you were just referring to.
Yeah.
When you said you dabble.
Yeah.
You are kind of an influencer mentor.
There are like a bunch of girlies who I think seek out my advice pretty frequently.
And I'm more than willing to give.
Yeah.
I feel like I've actually made some really,
like especially Remy,
like when Remy has an issue,
I feel like she actually comes to me a lot.
And I feel like I give very sound, sage advice.
The influencer mentor.
Yeah.
That should be.
You kind of spoke it into existence.
Well, I was just picking up
what you were already putting down.
Right.
Still no response from Ryan Just checking
I feel like a mentor
Should respond sooner
Yeah no I agree
It's kind of like
Well
I guess not
Maybe he's so busy
Responding to his actual mentees
Perhaps not
Perhaps not
I feel like he actually
Is a certified mentor
To other people though
For sure
Like because he comes
From the corporate world
Definitely
Definitely
So it's so great
To be back with you, Jax.
It's such a crazy busy weekend because I watched everything on the face of the planet.
I watched American Idol last night, which we're going to talk about.
Because we have it as a story.
It was the finale.
I watched, I started Queen Charlotte, the Bridgerton prequel.
It's very good.
I watched Succession.
Zach watched Succession while I read
So I caught bits and pieces
But I didn't watch last week either
Because I'm out and I'm done
There's no such thing as a spoiler in a show
Where nothing happens
It's horrible
Last night was the funeral
I caught bits and pieces
Never ending
Yeah well at least it ends next week
Oh is it ready?
Next week is the series finale.
The thing is, I was trying to think of this morning my thoughts on the show
so I could share them on today's episode.
And a lot of people compare it to Yellowstone
because it's about a family business succession.
And I feel like there have been times in Yellowstone
where the plot wasn't plotting.
Yeah, right now.
But the characters are so beloved
and really I could watch them do anything
and I would love it.
And I feel like every episode on Succession,
they chip away at the last few things
you might've liked about a character like Roman.
Like they just get, like they strip you of that.
So you don't even care.
Like when crazy things are happening to them,
bad or good, you you don't even care like when crazy things are happening to them bad or good you literally don't fucking care yeah because you don't like these are morally corrupt depraved
people like they have no they have nothing like nothing even remotely you'd think okay like Kendall
something's going on with the kids like maybe that's something no that elicited a reaction for
me like why should Kendall have custody full custody of his kids of course not to even know
them no but like his kids like one of his kids? Of course not. Did he even know them?
No, but like his kids,
like one of his daughters
was like attacked or something
and he like didn't care.
So it's like even like
the last line of like.
He didn't care?
I thought he cared.
I thought I caught that he cared.
No, like the mom was freaking out
and wants to get them out of town.
He was like,
you're being dramatic
and now he wants custody.
And now he wants custody.
I feel that he wants custody.
Because like the mom
is just being like
overly protective.
Like what qualifies you
to have custody?
Literally. Like you're. No, so it's like even like the, like okay being like overly protective like what qualifies you to have custody literally like you're no so it's like even like the like okay your kids like even that
they don't care about anything they stand for nothing and so you really just you can't feel
bad for them you can't celebrate their success and that's why the show in my opinion like is a
flop because of course not every season of every show is gonna have the best writing you would hope
you know the final season it would but even on a show where like whatever the writing plot sucks you love the characters what I've seen people say
is like no we love Tom and Greg like oh no I don't that they're the beloved they're the comic relief
maybe they're a little bit funny but they too like stand they stand for less they stand for less like
they're just obsessed with like money because they're outsiders so it's like they're even more
desperate yeah for success and money and fame and like they're there's with like money because they're outsiders. So it's like they're even more desperate.
Yeah.
For success and money and fame.
And like there there's like this big scandal at ATN and like all they care about is like their names being in it.
Like they're the two of the biggest losers ever.
Like at one point I found them comical for sure.
But no, the show is so bad.
And like I will not.
People are like Claudia, you don't get it.
It's satire.
Like you just have a low bar for comedy.
Like this shit literally sucks. It sucks sucks and you literally cannot convince me otherwise
eat my ass bitch you just have a low bar for comedy eat my ass bitch yeah and that's the
succession recap oh that's all you truly need to know I'm not gonna bore you with my recap of the
most boring 90 minutes they made it it was like 80 minutes I'm like you're kidding me right I know I
saw I was like waiting for it to be over so me too bruno out and it was like still
30 more minutes yeah same i'm like i paused i'm like ben this is done in a minute you can come
back in 20 more minutes yeah but i will say your recaps of bad shows usually are some of my
favorites usually make me actually interested in the show like you actually got me watching
succession for a few more episodes because of the way you recap that letter um and then another morgan letter the morgan lat oh that
was a good that's when i thought the season was going to be good i thought like the whole time
we'd be trying to decipher this letter kind of like game of thrones energy um and then i also
watched pretty much all of that show i told you to watch what is game of thrones if not a succession
exactly i watched somebody somewhere that bridget Everett show. I told you that you
would like, you would like it. It's basically like Schitt's Creek, but everyone's depressed.
I thought you said it's depressing. It is, but it's got heart and it's Bridget Everett is great.
She's great. And it's funny, but it's like depressing, you know, everything's depressing.
And that's just not my vibe. I know. I know. I know. You got to like protect your, your peace.
Yeah. So I, I actually didn't watch a lot of TV this week and I started our book for
the Redheads, which actually it's called Advika and the Hollywood Wives. And it's like all about
Hollywood and celebrity movie stars, whatever. And this morning when I was looking through the
stories, I was like so in the world of the book that I was like, no, that this is what's happening
in Hollywood because there was like all this drama. and it really tripped me up but the book is really good so far my book club
meets tonight about the the flop of the century the flop the things in which we left unfinished
by Margot Oshry yeah that Margot Oshry recommended I like feel guilty I feel like by association like
the book club I don't know if I think I don't know if everyone hated it as much as I do but
this is the first time in book club history that we actually postponed because people hadn't finished
it yet that's not a good sign right that's not a good
sign and I don't really believe in like postponing me neither for that reason no me neither and I
think we you know the book club learned a valuable lesson because once we postponed everyone's like I
can't do this week we we plan a month in advance and everybody plans their month around it so
unfortunately Natalie's not gonna make it it tonight, which just sucks.
You know, a member of the community not being able to come.
She's on her honeymoon.
And so it's like we learned like you don't move.
Like book club is immovable because once you do, we're lucky we got another date.
Even if people don't finish the book, like they can still come and talk about up until what they read.
Yeah.
I think that also sets a bad precedent.
No, because some books like are DNFs.
I know, but I think like a prerequisite for attending book club no because some books like are dnf I know but I
think like a prerequisite for attending book club is like you just have to read the book
I think it's okay if you if you intentionally did not finish the book like you don't have to
finish every book that you start if you really don't like it and then you come in and you share
why you disliked it so much and you're contributing to book club but like that's what I'll be doing
tonight read it at all stay home yeah yeah yeah well that's what I'll be doing tonight. If you didn't read it at all, stay home. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, that's what I'll be doing. I'll be like negative queen today at book club.
Love that for you.
Me too.
Well, the Redheads were actually recording this week
instead of next week because of the holiday
and people's travel schedules.
So we're all reading the book earlier.
And it's a great book.
Great month to join the Redheads.
Always.
The Redheads book club.
TRBC.
TRBC.
TRBC. TRBC. Greater than TCBY. Beyond. the redheads book club it's trbc trbc trbc greater than tcby beyond and that's that's a high bar because tcby really is the country's best yogurt is that franchise like still intact i think in
some places i don't think we have this conversation like once a year no i don't feel that way really
we've had it in regards to trBC, TCBY? Yeah, no.
I think it's like not as prestigious as it once was and as ubiquitous,
but I think it's still around.
Brian responded.
What did he say?
I said, would you say that you're my mentor?
He said, I mean, aren't we each other's mentors in unbridled chaos?
So basically, no.
So no.
So basically, no.
Ask him, do you have like official like mentees do you mentor people
are you taking on new mentees so basically what you're saying right word is I'm not your mentee
yes it is the right word do you have actual mentees and I feel like Brian does have a mentor
I just cannot recall who it is for sure he does I'm fairly certain um his name is Rick
that's so mentor yeah he's the guy mentor he's the guy he works at Brian's parent company and
he's the one who was on Sully's flight that landed in the Hudson remember how could I forget and
Brian held an event where Rick who was a passenger on that flight and Sully
reunited and they gave him an award and it was beautiful we were there it was a beautiful night
is it just a coincidence that Brian's mentor like is kind of part of the biggest story
in the last century or it's a coincidence I believe it's a coincidence wow yeah beautiful
that's the beauty that comes from a mentor mentee relationship that's the power of sally that's the power of sally yeah so we've got a great show right anything else we need to
catch up on girly swirly twirly dirty no we had a nice weekend we spent some time together we had
brunch we had brunch it meant nothing to you no we did have brunch but also the day before that
we did something long overdue for our patreon oh my god we did i wanted to talk about that on the
show today because i took some of the tips that you gave me just really one for today which was
more blush and i'm going to get a cream contour stick. I think you should. I used to use one, but then I just felt like I would use cream contour and then bronzer contour.
So it just felt like an unnecessary step.
But I feel like my face could use a little more definition these days.
So like two years ago, was it?
A year ago, I think.
A year ago, Jackie and I had the idea for Patreon episodes on any given month that we would do this little series where Jackie does her makeup tutorial on me. Like I do Claudia's makeup in the style of me. And I do Jackie's
makeup using her products in the style of her. We did mine. It was such a success. I like took away
so many little tips and tricks. I loved the way that I looked. I was nervous, but it ended up being
a great piece of content. Cut to literally trying to schedule the appointment to do Jackie's makeup.
And it's been a year. It's been a year.
And this week I said, bitch, sit the fuck down.
Oh, no, it's probably been two years.
Yes.
Yeah.
I keep thinking like, like, I don't think I was pregnant.
Right.
Thank you.
Two years.
So on Friday, we actually did it.
I got to do Jackie's makeup.
It was not what I thought it was going to be.
It was an extremely tense, I would say toxic work environment.
There were scuttlebutts.
There were,
there was drama.
That's what I'll say.
There was drama.
I won't spoil it.
I feel like I've tried to tell you guys
like over the years
how I really don't like being touched.
I don't let anyone touch my face.
And like no one's really
listening,
listened,
taken me seriously,
like believed me.
Yeah. And now you know. And now you know seriously, like believed me. Yeah.
And now you know.
And now you know that I'm not joking.
Okay.
That I fucking hate when people touch my face.
But people were then saying like, how do you, you don't get facials?
Right.
No, when it is a professional, like not no shade to turdy Lou.
Wow.
No shade to turdy Lou who picked her scab before she started my makeup.
I did.
When I'm in a professional.
And I'd do it again. When I'm in a professional do it again when i'm in a professional environment like a facial and even when i get my
makeup done by a professional like i'm a normal person there's a level of you know cleanliness
that comes with like professionalism like you don't have to worry i know what you mean yeah
like they're using you know tools that have been sanitized i don't think about it also when i'm
getting a facial like i if i'm not wearing makeup I mind less when people touch my
face um and I just sort of give myself over to the process like it's really not a big deal
but the idea of friendly fire touching my face like no you guys it was the craziest thing I'd
truly ever seen in my life like you seriously need help okay fine I need help okay fine like
I'll take it it is is what it is. Yeah.
I can't help.
I yam who I am.
You yam who you yam.
And that's okay.
And that's okay.
We got it all on camera.
Patreon.com slash a toast.
I feel like I've been trying to tell you guys.
You have.
And no one understood that I was being for real.
Yeah. Like I even said last week when we had that hip story.
No not this.
Your hip.
What?
Yes.
Your toasters.
Your toasters about the husband who touches the butt and she said she
doesn't want to be touched she's touched all day and Claudia was like sometimes Ben touches my hip
and I was like yeah I hate being touched too but blah blah blah and I just feel like people didn't
hear that like everybody like hates being touched but like you you were like seriously malfunctioning
yeah you guys just watch it patreon.com slash a toast I don't know what that is it's an issue We're like seriously malfunctioning. Yeah. You guys.
Just watch it.
Patreon.com slash a toast.
I don't know what that is.
It's an issue.
You have a condition.
But like what is it about?
I don't know.
I don't know.
Maybe that'll be the next Patreon vlog.
We get you.
We take you to get diagnosed.
Yeah. Like take me to a facility.
A therapist.
To get treatment.
Yeah.
It would just be interesting to know.
I have no intention of changing.
No, no.
You've made it this far.
I made it this far.
It's cleaner this way.
Yeah.
No.
And it doesn't affect my day-to-day life except for this Patreon vlog.
Yes.
Well, it made for some good content.
So there's that.
There is that.
Patreon.com slash the toast.
for some good content.
So there's that.
There is that.
Patreon.com slash the toast.
And what else can we tell you guys before we dive in
to like the stories
like that aren't about us?
The story,
and the stories that like
we're not waiting
with baby breath.
There's no breaking news.
I mean, honestly,
my week doesn't even begin
until Wednesday night,
you know?
Waiting all week
for Wednesday night
because of Vanderpump Rules.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's like the only thing
that matters in the entire world
right now. I know. And they should really be doing
something about it. Like we need bi-weekly episodes.
We need something. Well they're going to be putting
like unedited, not unedited
but more
shit
on Peacock. Oh. The reunion.
Like the reunion's going to have like deeper
cuts. They are just firing on
all. Bravo is like milking this for all that it is.
Like getting the Watched Rebels Live interviews.
Bravo Peacock content.
They had a series high rating.
Series high ratings.
On finale.
On finale night.
Series.
Well, because when you told me that the episode after Scandival broke
was like the biggest episode in two seasons.
I'm like, what?
It's not enough.
You know, it was a slow build, like with the whole globe.
Everybody had to catch up.
So it was the highest rated episode.
Series high.
So it was the highest rated Vanderpump Rules episode ever.
That's how it should be.
As it should, right.
And I can only imagine the reunion is going to break that too.
Especially like probably part three.
I don't know.
I think the people who are not like devoted Vanderpump fans
are going to lose their patience with the way that they do reunions.'t know. I think, I think the people who are not like devoted Vanderpump fans are going to lose their patience with the way that they do reunions.
I know.
But that finale,
like not a moment,
not a minute was wasted.
Wasted.
It's true.
Any fluff.
There was no,
you know,
panning over the city of LA.
So true.
Watching people's feet walk across the street.
Fake pop music in the background.
Yeah.
So true.
Um,
so yeah.
So yeah,
we'll see you guys on Wednesday night Thursday morning but until then
we do have the fast five stories that you need to know okay just one more thing from Brian he said
he doesn't have like official ones that he has like check-ins with um but he said I think he's
like but I think we all mentor each other in ways no why do you ask Ryan that's beautiful I'll just call him later and explain that that was beautiful yeah I think
we all should be like checking in and mentoring and menteeing one another all the time I agree
with that but I also think like it's nice to have the one of course an official like the person who
picks you out of the crowd and also the person that you pick and then you go to each other will you be my mentor? I feel like there needs to be more done
in the corporate space to foster these relationships.
Yeah because it's an old-school thing.
Yeah. It's nice. It is nice. Well you know what else is nice? Today's sponsor

we all saw this weekend that they spent 200 million on the estate which is made it the most
expensive home ever purchased in California.
But it's also said to be the second most expensive in the history of U.S. real estate.
It was the first.
A New York City apartment that sold for $238 million.
Wow.
When you compare like what you got in that apartment in New York to what they got, like
I'm embarrassed for the person who bought the New York City apartment.
I mean, I think that that most expensive apartment is in that new building that's like an eyesore
and is having all these problems.
Like it's going to collapse any minute.
There's a couple of those.
They're like these huge, tall residential buildings
that like are in the,
they're so random.
Yeah, they're in the most random areas.
They're having enormous issues
like with electrical and plumbing.
And it's like these people
live in $200 million apartments
and they can't flush the toilet.
Yeah.
That's why I choose to rent, you know?
Sources close to the deal told TMZ
that they bought the all-concrete home
from William Bell,
who's one of the biggest art collectors in the world,
who took nearly 15 years to build the mansion.
The 30,000 square foot property
was designed by Japanese master architect
Tadao Ando,
who was also behind the $57.3 million mansion
that Kanye bought
during his divorce from Kim.
Remember he bought a mansion in Malibu that literally looked like-
Yes.
A garage.
Yeah.
Same architect.
Originally, the home was listed for $295 million, so they actually got a deal.
I have a lot of thoughts.
My first is, I cannot believe they paid all cash, because one of my favorite things that
I ever learned, and probably one of the only things I ever learned from Chrissy Teigen was when
she did a Q&A on Twitter she was like do you have any questions about like what it's like to be a
celebrity and be rich and famous and someone asked about mortgages like you guys are so rich do you
still get mortgages and she was like yeah we just do like you guys put you guys put down like a
hundred thousand dollars we put down 10 million dollars and we get a 50 million dollar house yeah
and I was like oh I actually really never thought
celebrities or people of like enormous wealth
got mortgages, but why spend money
if you can get it free from the bank like everyone else?
So this is shocking, because when I saw this at first,
my thoughts were, oh, they definitely got a mortgage.
So they probably put down what, like 30 million?
Yeah, perhaps, but interest rates are so high right now,
it's really not the time.
Right, that's true.
So maybe that's why they thought it was better to invest their money like they're not wrong
than to pay like especially at these numbers and those interest rates it would be an insane monthly
nut okay so that's just crazy because like that means they gave up 200 million dollars and they
still have like other hundreds of millions to live it's really not that crazy because I feel
like either one of them could have bought this house and they bought it together you know what i mean like
they're both so he's net he's valued at 1.5 million dollars billion 2.5 billion sorry 2.5
million billion dollars and last she was had a net worth of 450 million but she just started her
tour and she's about to start her hair brand allegedly so I think those numbers will go up yeah yeah that's just fascinating to me
um also like I just don't believe that people even know what their net worth is no me neither
because also I do believe that Jay-Z's net worth is higher but I feel like in terms of like cash
accessible to them Beyonce like does a show gets
paid releases a song gets paid everything Jay-Z does is like business I feel like everything he
has is like stock I don't think he has like hundreds of millions in cash lying around but
I feel like Beyonce actually does right he has like business ventures and things that are worth
a lot of money but I think Beyonce probably has a lot of like money yeah not like value I agree
with that. Well the
house is beautiful. It is but let me just say one thing because you know I gotta critique the 200
million dollar house. If I was buying a 200 million dollar house like I would want it to feel like a
house. This whole house is made of concrete. I know that's like a very LA aesthetic but it's
very modern, very cold. Like if I really could build any house like my house would not be like
insanely modern. It would be like very Nancy Meyers like tufted couches linens like it would be huge and
everything would be the best of the best but the kitchen would look like a kitchen where you're
like gonna raise a family not you know cook meth like these like crazy gray surfaces like it's so
cold it's very cold it's not my style either modern homes in general especially like these
futuristic I'm just I'm in the past. It's basically like every house on Selling Sunset.
Beautiful. Really I don't think I would ever live in any of them except I remember literally they
got one house in Beverly Hills that was like old school and had a tennis court and like it was my
favorite house. Yeah. That's more like houses that look like homes are my style of living.
Yes I agree. This doesn't look like a selling sunset home to me though
because those ones are like super modern
in the sense that they're like all glass.
This is, you know, obviously futuristic.
Yeah, I think a lot of people thought at first
when this house came out
that it was a $75 million home Divina never sold.
It does kind of look like it, but it's not.
No, but that was a home.
That was a homey home.
Yeah, it had like a lot of yard.
And it was in like Bel Air, Beverly Hills.
Where is this house?
This is on the beach.
In Malibu?
Yes.
And so that, the land itself, I wonder, is worth how much.
Yes, that's true.
Well, I'm happy for them.
May they all, you know, grow old there.
Yes.
And I do think California is their like primary residence.
So this will be like their home.
I think their kids like will live here full time, go to school in the neighborhood, you know.
So it's nice.
It's nice.
I'm happy for them.
Not at all jealous.
Happy for them.
It's crazy paying all cash.
Yeah.
Are you ready for our next story?
Yeah.
American Idol has a new champion.
Oh my God.
We need to talk about this.
E.M. Tongi wins season 21. Like and to be honest who cares about
like American Idol winners but this season because of E.M. like took the world by storm. Really? So he's
this very young I think he's like 16 or 17 year old kid. 18. From Hawaii. He his audition went
completely viral. He sang this random song.
Who even knew it?
It's called Monsters by James Blunt.
And, you know, he had just lost his dad.
And the song is about like saying goodbye to your dad.
And he was like very emotional.
You know, Katie, Lionel, Luke, they're all parents.
Actually, Luke Bryan was talking about how that, you know, after his audition, he was
like, you know, I just got so choked up.
You know, the whole story with Luke Bryan, how I think his brother and his wife had passed away.
Now Luke and his wife are raising their kids.
You know, she's a mom, Katy Perry.
Like everyone was sobbing.
Vinyl is a parent.
Of course.
And he was so good.
But you just, the vocals, it wasn't anything crazy.
He was so simple and he played guitar.
And he was just this really endearing, cute kid.
It went so viral Jackie
they literally were talking about him on Joe Rogan last week what did they say so Jelly Roll
Jelly Roll was the guest and then last night Jelly Roll was on American Idol performing with
Lainey Wilson they had so three hours I saw a commercial for the American Idol finale and like all the performers 8 to 11 I'm sorry
it's a lot that's not okay um there's ads to be sold there's and you know what they did a really
good job Clay Aiken and Ruben Stoddard performed together they like harked back to a lot Keith
Urban was like they were like big return to American Idol Keith Urban was a mentor and then
all the three finalists sang a Keith Urban song and he like met with all them. And Iyam Tangi, he's like, my dad loved you so much.
Like him and my mom sang all your music, danced in the living room.
It was just, it was like really emotional.
But then honestly, listen to me.
The best part of the night was like Ben ran in because I was watching Succession.
He was like, get out here.
So he went viral for singing this James Blunt song.
And then James Blunt came and they sang the song together.
And neither of them like could stop crying they literally it was silent like they
did not sing they were just like shaking and crying obviously I'm gonna assume James Blunt
wrote that song about his father passing away and it was just such an emotional night for EM I think
he knew he was gonna win it was just everyone was in tears like it was so beautiful you have you
will sob you have to watch his audition it's truly the saddest thing of all time um because I'm not your son you're not my father we're just two grown men saying
goodbye and then when James Blunt came back to perform I'm like oh my god EM's version is so
much better I had never heard the original song um but they really you know that's what American
Idol does they tug at the heartstrings
they're me and ben were like sobbing it was a really good episode and then of course em won
which was not shocking the other girl was actually extremely talented and if it were any other person
she were up against like i think she knew the nation has like fallen in love with em and there
was no way that he wasn't gonna win yeah you know um that's beautiful i didn't know any of this yeah
no it was really he really made the season like extremely relevant i mean they were talking about joe rogan and then jelly roll
was like you have to watch this and explain the whole background and then they sat there and
they're both sobbing joe rogan is crying yes i swear to god you know they're both dads like
it was like em every person who watches the video, like, is touched by him.
He's, like, a very special person.
Oh, and the best part, they do this thing where, like, all the finalists have, like, a hometown parade.
And he went back to Hawaii.
And, like, they're so proud of him.
And, like, when he got off the plane, they were giving him lays and doing the dances.
And they had this whole concert for him.
And Jack Johnson showed up.
And, like, they hold a moment of silence for his dad.
Like, it was, really, it was A-plus TV.
Yeah, wow.
It was really well done. Wow. And I think he's gonna be a star I mean obviously people are making you know immediate comparisons to him
for him to Israel comma Kawe because they're both Hawaiian and they play guitar and they have like a
they do have like a similar very soft spoken I think it's like a like very traditional Hawaiian kind of vibe
and he's gonna he's he's gonna be huge I'm telling you okay I'm gonna have to watch that video you
know you're not gonna be okay like make sure your makeup is off my makeup will be you are alone
this mascara runs just be alone with your thoughts like once Harry's down for a nap like you are not
gonna be fucking okay okay the song itself was also just so sad and I hadn't heard it.
And actually what makes me feel like really kind of special
is me and Ben, we haven't kept up with the whole season,
but every now and then, like when we're bored,
we'll watch American Idol.
And we watched his thing live and we knew in that moment,
we didn't even need to-
You were witnessing history.
Yeah, we knew he was gonna win
and we knew he was gonna be special.
And we were right not to make everything about us.
But Ben's obsessed with him.
Ben was crying.
Well, I'm so glad that he won and that people are glad that he won.
Yeah.
No, it was a real celebration.
I felt for the other girl.
She was a very talented country singer.
But, you know, you don't need to win these shows.
Winning is like a nice thing.
Once you make top four, you either are going to be famous or not
gabby barrett who literally is a grammy winning or nominated country star didn't even win like
yeah and the other guy who win i ain't seen him since i don't know when i don't even know there
was like two other people maddie and caleb and then they were like dating and i don't know if
they went who cares like winning really actually means nothing yeah but I'm sure in that moment like you're on a high and then
it comes down and she was great she was really talented and they both came out with original
songs like really American Idol's kind of killing it wow I wonder how many I do wonder like how many
people watch American Idol because they were saying when they were introducing Clay Aiken and Ruben Studdard,
they were like, you know, 17 years ago on this very stage,
40 million people tuned in to watch Clay Aiken and Ruben Studdard.
40 million people.
That's like how many people now watch the Super Bowl,
which is like the biggest event of the year.
Yeah.
Isn't that crazy?
We're all splintered off doing our own thing, siloed, watching alone, binging.
Binging.
But also like there's the voice. We're not a part of something not part of something no we're not no i don't think it's the
other competition shows i just think it's the nature of how we watch tv now our behavior yeah
yeah no you're right you know it used to be like this is the one thing that's on at eight o'clock
and we're all gonna tune in for it oh and it's good right right i mean the three hours was like
truly out of fucking control yeah nevertheless. Nevertheless, we persisted.
That's beautiful.
Thank you.
I'm glad to know about EM.
I watched the 90 minute episode of Succession and I still had an hour left of American Idol.
Isn't that fucking crazy?
Yeah.
Nuts.
But a 90 minute episode of Succession
like is also crazy.
That's no commercials.
It's actually the same length.
Oh my, you're so right.
No commercials.

Strice Bro approved. strice bro approved strice bro approved and that's not a label that they just give out loosely no it means something it means
something next story taylor swift says she's never been this happy in all aspects of her life during
the eros tour stop this weekend it It was a crazy weekend Arras tour.
It was.
I mean, every weekend Arras tour is kind of crazy.
I know.
Boston is the Gillette Stadium,
has a special connection with Taylor.
I think it was the first stadium she ever played after arenas.
It was the first time she ever did a rain show,
and then that's when she fell in love with playing in the rain.
She just has a unique connection to the community over there.
She did get a rain show on Saturday night.
I think it rained a little Friday night,
but like Saturday was torrential downpour,
three and a half hours.
She didn't stop the whole time.
They got some amazing secret songs.
It was, it was tough.
But I feel like every city like has something special about it.
That's true.
Every city's felt that way.
Like last week was Philly, her hometown before.
That was Nashville, her other hometown.
Like there's always an argument to be made. Then like New York is going to be,
welcome to New York. I just really hope that's not the show I'm at like I don't
really love that song but it's so obviously gonna be one of them yeah I think it'll be the first
night which night are you going I don't know because I'm still waiting to get my tickets
hopefully not the first night yeah okay well anyways she took a moment before performing her
track Midnight's her track question from Midnight's.
Which was like such a crazy surprise song.
I feel like.
That was the surprise song?
Yeah.
I feel like songs from Midnight's like are really not,
except she did You're On Your Own Kid,
which everyone was like crapping their pants over.
But it just felt random.
I feel like Midnight's are not contenders.
Like I feel like we're going deep on like deep cuts with the surprise songs.
And to get a song that came out two months ago, it's like weird. No.
And like, doesn't she do a lot of Midnight midnight songs so if like it didn't make the the cut
yeah that's interesting but everyone loves that song yeah no I just thought it was crazy
but before she I mean since she gave them questions she also gave them you know a fun fact about
herself um she told the crowd quote I've just never been this happy in my life in all in all
aspects of my life ever and I
just want to say thank you for being a part of that it's not just a tour I just sort of feel
like my life finally feels like it makes sense so I thought I'd play this song which brings me a lot
of happy memories I just feel like it's such a crazy thing to say that after being in a six-year
relationship like oh I'm out I'm so happy like it's so funny first of all second of all I feel like it's so
interesting to me because I could have guessed that this would have been one of the happiest
times in Taylor's life just like based on like as an observer um and I feel like there were so
many years where all Taylor wanted was like what she has now like that 1989 era which was iconic
but she was like trying really hard to have like a million friends and be like the biggest thing
and the best thing and have everyone love her and once she had like the the show outdo itself every
single night with all the guests that she was bringing out yeah exactly and it was really big
and hype but this is like happening in such a natural organic way right so it's like once she
stopped trying to be that bitch she became that bitch which I feel like is just a good lesson for
everyone you know yeah but it took some time like it wasn't just she went from 1989 trying and then to eras no no organic like she
did reputation which was like the opposite of 1989 which is like I hate all of you yep you get
nothing from me except what I give you and you'll like it yep scraps love that for her yeah and then
lover which was I don't I feel like for me I love the songs from lover but I really do feel like
that era was so put on like no it's such a shame because the more I think about it the thing with
Taylor's music which is so iconic is really you need to spend time you need to like get far away
from it in order in my opinion to like really appreciate it like every time an album comes out
like by the next album I'm now hyper fixating on the one prior you know and with lover I'm now in my era where we don't
like respect lover enough because it was packaged in this like really kind of corny corny perfect
word aesthetic where you thought it was just going to be like dreamland fairy cloud pop music
and I believe it's some of her best work there are like probably five or six songs on there that
are probably her best songs ever but we never like give it the attention because it's like silly lover.
And I agree with what there is something.
There was something inherently wrong with the way lover was promoted because I don't think it was taken seriously.
And it just felt like so inauthentic at the time.
But like Death by a Thousand Cuts, Miss Americana, Cruel Summer, Daylight, Afterglowglow the archer like those are literally
some of the best songs ever and nobody thinks of it because it's just like lover you know yeah
yeah but i also think then like folk more and ever more like she had to go through that it
kind of freed her yeah like it showed her that she could put out whatever she wants and that
it's going to be like so loved she doesn't have to do all the marketing she could drop like that
was the first time she like dropped an album the day after she said she was gonna yep and it was her biggest and it was
her biggest and like everyone just totally fell in love with it and so then she was able to start
kind of like a new and fresh and and that brings us to where we are now yeah yeah so back to where
she can also like celebrate herself like this is a celebration of her and her history yes yes you
mean the tour? This tour.
Yes.
And so to hear that she's the happiest she's ever been, like I could have guessed.
Yeah.
But I also feel like, yes, it's shady to Joe because I thought I was, you know, the one.
Right.
Literally.
But I feel like in a lot of her relationship with Joe, other aspects of her life were not
as happy as they are now.
Like her career, like she was with him with him you know when she was canceled and reputation and then reputation wasn't nominated for the Grammy and
lover wasn't and lover was only nominated for a pop vocal not like overall so I feel like those
were some harder years career-wise and she's saying like on all aspects of her life that
things are really good and I don't think it's just shady towards Joe it just no me neither I just
thought it was like hilarious no I know I know but like i actually think there's been so much discourse around her relationship
with maddie like you know sensitive like distressed millennials being like i'm so disappointed
and i think this was like a very like subtle way of her saying like i'm really happy
fuck off like i got it under control. Like I'm 32 years old.
Like I know what I'm doing.
You know?
Yeah.
I think there was definitely an element of that.
And I like that.
Because I like it.
But why do you think this song brings back happy memories?
What is it about?
What is this song about?
I thought it was about Justin and Celine.
No, here's the thing.
The way I have no fucking idea what question is about.
Can I ask you a question?
Have you ever had someone kiss you in a crowded room
and every single one of your friends was making fun of you
and 15 seconds later they were clapping too?
What did you do?
What the fuck does that mean?
I don't know.
And who?
Who's kissing who?
Who?
Good girl, sad boy, big city, wrong choices.
We had one thing going on.
I swear that it was something
because I don't remember who I was
before you painted on my nights
a color I've searched for since.
But one thing after another,
fucking situation, circumstances, miscommunications,
and I have to say, by the way,
I just made like some explanations.
I have literally no idea what's going on.
I have no idea.
It's such a confusing song to me.
It's a bop,
but I don't get it.
If somebody could,
you know,
drop in the comments,
like,
what the fuck is this song about?
I had heard it was about
Selena and Hailey.
I mean,
not Selena and Hailey,
Selena and Justin.
I still don't get it.
Maybe she just has fun memories
of like writing this song,
you know,
with Jack.
Okay.
Maybe not like the memories
from the song, but the memories of writing it and like being in the studio and just like vibing out
with her besties asking questions maybe that just happened to be like a really particularly fun day
at the office sure sure i like that let's go with that so then some of the other secret songs
should have said no everyone's marking themselves safe safe, which is so funny. I think you guys are sleeping on red.
No, that's really like an amazing song.
That was tough.
No, but you were like with your tongue out,
like I'm fine.
I am fine because I'm waiting for peace.
And so any song,
and you know why else I'm fine?
Like I am a part of like a very blessed
group of individuals.
Like I got Out of the woods and 15 like I am a
probably that's probably one of the top three surprise song combos like I feel blessed you
think so what are the others there was one this weekend that was the Friday night one let me find
it hold on was really it was really kind of next level stellar there's this Instagram account that
like posts them all let Let me just find it.
I think Snitch tagged them today.
I'm literally on Snitch's thing.
When she marked herself safe.
Yeah.
Because she's waiting for long live, which was supposed to be last night.
People just made that up.
I don't think.
I'm sorry.
No one's getting long live.
Do you know what I mean?
You feel?
No one's getting it.
Like to give it to one group.
It's like the fact that it's not in the set list means it's not coming at all.
I think someone's getting it. I don't.
I think they are.
You see people are selling the rainwater on eBay?
I did not see that.
People are not okay.
You saw people selling their contacts when they saw the show?
That I would buy.
These lenses have seen Taylor.
Okay, like why am I having to-
So you're saying these lenses have seen Taylor?
Okay, no, wait.
So that's,'s sorry I'm like
really having a hard time this Instagram account's really on point take your time um I am
oh oh oh oh this was tough for me on Friday night they got better man that was on my list that was
like because one thing about me and why I feel like better and it's been more special
than everyone
is like,
I have loved that song
long before Taylor
ever even released it.
It's LBT.
And I like looked past
my hatred of Little Big Town
and I saw the song
for what it was
and I've had a connection
to it ever since
and I used to watch,
she had like one lowly performance
in this like documentary
about Bluebird Cafe
that was on YouTube.
And Scott Borchetta is like talking over her in the documentary, whatever.
I lived with that like YouTube video for so many years.
Now I have obviously other things thanks to her re-releasing it.
But like that was hard for me.
And but the other song that night was.
Shoulda Said No.
That's a really good song.
And she recreated.
So she has this like turnt performance at the ACM Awards.
Like when she was 11 years old.
No, like 16
of should have said no um where she's like standing in the rain like she doesn't sound her best but
she's having fun and she does this thing where she changes the octave of the chorus to a higher key
and she did it and everyone was like creaming their pants you should have said no you should
have gone home you should have thought twice before you let it all go. It's really good.
Oh, that's cool.
Yeah.
And then Question and...
Rhett, no.
Invisible.
That, honestly, like justice for those people.
Like those songs are fucking horrible.
I love Invisible.
So do I, but like, come on.
But they got the rain show.
Yeah, so they're fine. And then last night was I Think He Knows But they got the rain show. Yeah, so they're fine.
And then last night was I Think He Knows.
We got a rain show when we went to Reputation.
We did.
And it was like light drizzle.
It was like a mist.
It wasn't bad.
And our secret song was Enchanted.
Was it?
Mm-hmm.
I think she just played Enchanted.
No, I remember.
Like, I'm not as attuned to these things.
And I just remember, like, that we got Enchanted.
Something special.
I think so. No, that we got Enchanted. Something special. I think so.
No.
I remember hearing Enchanted.
Let me know if that was part of the rep tour set list.
I don't think it was because I've watched Reputation documentary like a thousand times.
And Enchanted's not in it.
No.
So that's what we got.
Wait.
That's like so crazy.
I know.
Because it's like not a song you get.
You know?
Right.
That's like a long live.
Yeah.
Right.
Right.
Right.
I think someone's getting
long live i don't like i really don't you think there are some that like i don't the thing is
it's like that would be like her not playing like shake it off it's like do you know what i mean or
that's like okay no sorry that's the wrong it's like her not playing all too well 10 minute version
and then giving it to one show but it's not no it is it's like a special song for the fan base so like why isn't it in the tour
i don't know because she only sings one fucking song from speak now which also makes no goddamn
sense maybe she's trying to build up hype for speak now no but like that's seriously like if
i could ask her if i ask you a question if i could ask her one question and be like what the fuck with speak now literally like your best album
like we all like love speak now everybody's about to speak the hell out of now no i know but like
so what we all went to the eras tour and we didn't get one era like we all all we got was enchanted
which is amazing but like what the fuck like i seriously like i have questions huh okay it's an
intentional thing
but you do still think that peace could happen no one thing about me is like I know peace is
not happening you know it's too personal to her no and there's like there are songs that are about
joe and like she's not singing them and peace is literally like the one it's so sad so I'm just
like being delusional so what's your second I'll read you my list yeah read me your list but honestly I should make a list my list is kind of like thinning out because Better Man was
on there the other side of the door is on there and Forever and Always and those have all been
played um but I would say my second like I would really not be okay if she sang You Are in Love
like I love that song okay um long story short well, because if I'm in the presence of Taylor when she says,
Pass me.
I want to tell you not to get lost in these petty things.
Your nemeses will defeat themselves before you get the chance to swing.
I'll pass away.
Okay.
And The Way I Loved You.
That's a great song.
So those four songs, I do believe we will get You Are
In Love and if you watched my patreon vlog you know that when she sang Out of
the Woods she gave like a little speech before she told us what song it was and
she literally described You Are In Love and I thought we were getting it. Because
she was like it's from 1989. It's a song where the chorus repeats itself. You can
hear it in the silence silence silence silence. It's a rep's literally a rapid, and I was so, I was screaming.
I thought that was it.
But out of the woods, it's just as good.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
No, I'm not complaining.
But like I was like, like I thought, you know.
Got it.
Okay.
Well, Taylor's really happy.
And that's our Taylor talk for the day.
Yeah.
And it was plenty.
Yeah.
And there's going to be Taylor talk every day because Taylor's in her Taylor era.
One thing, one thing about me, I'm talking about Taylor now.
I spoke about Taylor yesterday.
I will be talking about Taylor tomorrow
Yeah because Taylor is the news right now
Taylor is the moment
She is the music industry
Yeah
Like and it constantly cycles
And this is Taylor's turn
Yeah it's Taylor's turn
So we talk about Taylor
It's Taylor's turn
So we talk about Taylor
So we're taking turns with Taylor
And she'll be back in New York this week
I know
Oh my god
I have to hit the town every night this week
I totally forgot
You gotta get dressed and stay alert
I gotta get dressed and stay alert.
I got to get dressed and stay alert.
But like I can't.
I'm so tired.
No seriously.
I'm making dinner plans.
Like now.
Oh yeah.
We have our big dinner plans in two weeks.
Yeah.
Jackie and I like have a double date that we literally scheduled three weeks in advance.
Like she made a Google calendar invite and everything.
I'm excited.
But.
It's a good way to make sure we get together. Yeah.
No.
It's just kind of crazy.
Yeah.
The Google calendar. Yeah. Just like to go to dinner. It's crazy. But you know what? But we'll You know, it's just kind of crazy. Yeah. The Google calendar.
Yeah.
Just like to go to dinner.
It's crazy.
But you know what?
I'm glad we did it.
But we're doing it.
We're doing it.
Okay, our next story, some hosting news, some switch up,
because Beat Shazam has a new host and DJ,
because Jamie Foxx is going through an unspecified health crisis.
He's reportedly out of the hospital and on the mend in physical rehab.
So we haven't spoken about Jamie Foxx because nobody knows what's going on with him. And I
just hope he's okay and takes the time that he needs to get better. But usually he hosts
Beat Shazam and his daughter DJs Beat Shazam. So the new host while he's out is Nick Cannon.
And filling in for the DJ spot is Kelly Osbourne. Kelly Osbourne is a DJ?
She's a DJ now.
She said, I've done DJing before, but it was more like making a playlist and hitting play
and dancing around.
Oh, so we're all DJs.
I can't claim to be a good DJ at all.
The house DJ, DJ Irie, was showing me a few things.
It took me a minute to get across all the equipment, but by the end, I had it under
control.
So now she's the DJ.
Okay. I want
to say like Nick Cannon is a professional host he'll do a great job like perfection um question
mark question mark can I ask you a question why is Kelly Osbourne DJing a TV show no like why does
Kelly Osbourne like look I'm trying not to be like a hater but like why does she like keep getting
like good gigs like why was she on Fashion Police I don't know I mean not to be like a hater, but why does she keep getting good gigs? Why was she on Fashion Police?
I don't know.
I mean, it's obviously like a little nepotism.
Yeah, of course.
But also...
I'm not against nepotism-ism.
But there's also like,
there's plenty of nepo babies in the industry
who are out here hustling and...
Who are DJs.
Literally.
And she's just always chosen.
Like, maybe people just really love her.
Maybe she's like a good agent.
Maybe she has a good Q score.
Yeah, I don't think so.
Yeah, I don't feel one way or the other.
No, have you seen that clip of her saying
like Spanish people are like cleaning toilets all the time?
Like she's like really like woke whatever.
And then she like accidentally exposed herself
as being like incredibly like,
she was like talking about like- When is it from? From when she was like talking about. When is it from?
From when she was on The View.
When was she on The View?
Like as a guest.
Okay.
And she just like, she got herself in like a heated political debate and she was like,
well, if we don't let in Mexicans, who's going to clean the toilets?
Like she was trying to like, yeah, no.
And it was really bad.
And it's like a clip.
It's like one of those clips that goes viral like every day.
And it comes across my TikTok all the time. Okay. Next time you see it send it to me i've never seen it she was
like saying she was like talking about like immigration with trump and she's like well who's
gonna clean the toilets at your hotels that's what she said it's like uh anyone can clean the
toilet like it was like a crazy fucking thing to say and ever since then that's like that's where
my mind goes when i think of kelly osborne where does your mind go it goes into a fog yeah of
different hair colors and different jobs yeah hair colors and jobs I like that you know what I mean
yeah and to me she's not just one thing no you can't put Kelly in a box no it just goes to like
her sitting at like a pre pre-red carpet table yeah yeah talking about what she thinks someone's
gonna wear that's pretty much it.
That's where my mind goes.
We have got to go on Beachazam, you and I,
because like we know the lyrics to every song
and we would be so good at it.
I used to think like I was really the perfect person
for Beachazam, but I've watched a few episodes
and it's really hard.
It is hard because they choose like oldies.
They choose, they don't choose Taylor Swift.
Yeah.
They choose like random like bat mitzvah songs
like Earth, Wind & Fire and stuff.
But it's a great concept for a show.
It is.
I still think we would do a good job.
I think we could hold our own.
Yeah.
But I don't think I would be like the Ken Jennings of Beachazam.
No.
And I think like if we go on as a duo like we probably shouldn't go on together.
We should go on with like someone else maybe someone older who you know because we cover
the same.
We cover the same.
Bases.
It's so true.
Yeah.
But it is a dream of mine. I feel like manifested sis. That's what they say Basis. It's so true. Yeah. But it is a dream of mine.
I feel like manifested sis.
That's what they say.
Yeah.
That's what the kids say.
Yeah.
There's like this thing on TikTok where people are like I manifested this brand partnership.
And it's like no you didn't.
You like tagged the brand a thousand times.
Like manifesting has just become code word for begging.
They're like I manifested this invite to this event.
It's like no well the last time the brand had an you were like, I want to go tagging the brand.
So they invited you, you know?
Right.
It didn't just happen from the universe of manifestation.
It didn't, like, seriously materialize right in front of you.
Like, you worked for it and you got it.
Yeah, you achieved it.
You didn't manifest it.
Right.
Yeah, that's another word, means nothing.
Means nothing.
I don't like to use the word manifest.
And whenever someone's like, now, like, it's a good way to end a conversation.
Oh, just manifest it. Is that what you were doing to me yeah yeah cool cool no
but I also think I guess manifest means to like speak into existence yeah or it means like a piece
of paper with names on it or it's like some I feel like there's so many things that people manifest
I'd love to see the list of things that didn't come true uh literally my life like literally
everything but it's like the one thing that says manifestation really works i'm like i hate the word manifest if i see there's like a content
creator who like i'm thinking about following and then she's like i manifest but you know our
little sis sometimes says it well she's young and she'll learn she'll learn it's true i did silly
things when i was young all the time that i regret and she'll she'll come to regret this this time in
her life she will are you ready for our fifth and final story? Is it the fifth and final story that's brought to you by Perfect Bar?

Our fifth and final story
is a rumored romance
that may or may not be
totally true
or totally false,
but just worth discussing.
It's worth hypothesizing.
Harry Styles is reportedly getting close to Victoria's Secret model Candace Swanepoel.
The crooner has reportedly grown close to Candace, according to The Sun.
Quote, Harry is one of the biggest music superstars,
so it's not surprising supermodels are lining up to date him, a source told the outlet.
What grandma wrote that?
He's got history with Victoria's Secret models and has been linked to six others who have all walked in their fashion show.
But who's counting?
The insider added that Candace is one of Victoria's Secret's most successful angels and Harry would be lucky if he managed to woo her.
So let me say, I actually do think this is true.
It's very believable.
It's on track with like clearly his taste in women who
are older than him and taller than him um I just want to say and I don't know if it's because like
I wish this was me you know I am constantly like uninspired and let down by Harry's choice in women
okay I agree like he has yet to be with someone that I'm like that's it that makes sense this is
so obvious I just I don't know it's like who do you want to see him with that's not you because
you're married so that's why he's not asking you out you like I don't know just somebody
on par in terms of age somebody like different I don't know like another model she's like so
and there's nothing wrong with
models I'm sure Candice is great personality it's just like come on it's so unoriginal it's just not
creative it's not inspiring but wasn't he dating like some food chef Instagrammer at one point
I remember reported on it um 500 years ago and she had like 10,000 followers yeah and like that
was different I don't remember that's not what I mean when I say different. And you know what I'm saying. Okay. Like, I don't know.
I don't even know who I ship him with. I just want him to surprise me.
Like the reason I believe this is because it's so predictable, you know? Yeah.
I agree with you. I just, I don't know. I want something like fun and fresh and exciting, like a,
like a Sydney Sweeney type. I don't know. You something like fun and fresh and exciting like a like a
Sydney Sweeney type I don't know you know and I know there's a million reasons that that can't
happen but I don't know so someone his age or younger yeah someone who's like having a moment
and also like he would someone like young Hollywood like together they would just rise
like Kaia Gerber if she were single no kaya gerber like it's like a
little boring for me oh okay and she's a model and you're not into that yeah i just i'm nothing
against models honestly i just feel like the list yeah i don't think there's anyone on like
our list is a little more mature because it's like eligible people for marriage it's not really
everyone's single in young hollywood right Camille Marone love love
Camille Marone and Harry Styles love love love I'm just gonna leave it like
leave it but that's it there we go manifest it I love that's a good couple
and I feel like it'd be honestly a step up for her it's very hard for who she's
gonna date next like everyone knows her and she's very accomplished on her own but you know obviously a lot of her
fame comes from being Leonardo DiCaprio's long-term girlfriend and where do you go from Leonardo
DiCaprio Harry Styles Harry Styles that's really like the perfect way out of like that trope for
her yeah it's kind of how like when Gigi Hadid broke up with Joe Jonas we were like oh my god well what's
Joe Jonas gonna do and he actually ended up with somebody on Gigi's level like somebody better
suited for him you know yeah like it was the perfect way out he could have gotten pigeonholed
like as that guy who once dated Gigi Hadid yeah but no he got the perfect girl for him that is
Cammie Marone no Harry Styles is Cammie Marone's ticket out yeah for him too. His ticket out of just like relationships that aren't working for him.
No.
This is like.
He needs a little bit of stability.
He's always on tour.
He's the biggest rock star in the world.
She's very artistic.
He needs a little bit of grounding.
I think that the right relationship could do that for him.
And she's like a nice girl.
I feel like she's always you know hanging with her mom.
She's family oriented.
I like it.
I love it.
Because I like it.
I like it. I love it. Because I like it. I like it.
I love it.
I want some more of it.
I try so hard.
I can't rise above it.
That's our show.
That's a beautiful way to end this show
with a manifestation of a beautiful couple
and a beautiful song from a beautiful girl.
Stop.
Keep going.
