Starting point is 00:00:02 Hello, everybody, and welcome back to When Reality Hits. This week, we have one of my girls, castmates, Jasmine Good. Hey, everybody. What's that, boo? Thanks for coming on. Yes, I'm so excited. Always has such a good time with you. Yes.
Starting point is 00:00:20 So this is a reality TV podcast, obviously, when reality hits. And you have been on many different reality shows. Yes. So let's go through. a name. Oh, God. Where do we start? Okay, these were all like a different time in life, okay?
Starting point is 00:00:37 What was your first? You started on The Bachelor, right? The Bachelor. No, actually, no, making the team. Oh, making the team. If you want to count that, it's a reality show. We are, I haven't written. But that was my job.
Starting point is 00:00:46 That was like, I mean, these are all jobs, but you know what I mean. Okay, yes. I knew that the Dallas Cowboys was the beginning. Okay, so you say the order that you're on. Okay, so I was on making the team, Dallas Cowboys cheerleaders. Do you want the years? No, I'm just kidding. No, we're not going to age myself.
Starting point is 00:01:03 And then I actually went on The Bachelor, and then I did Bachelor in Paradise. And then after that, I just needed, you know, some more, of course. So I switched on over to MTV and went on Exana Beach, and that was a shit show. And then somehow ended up on the Valley. Yay. And I think I'm done after this.
Starting point is 00:01:22 So wait, which station or which network was the Dallas cheerling on again? So back then it was on CMT. Okay, so you've been on four different. Yeah. So it changed. networks but yeah yeah but you've been on four different networks crazy right was it for yeah four different networks yeah because CMT ABC Bravo MTV and MTV yeah that's crazy that is crazy I think I've like so many lives I feel like I've lived so many different lives which is why I wanted to want to have
Starting point is 00:01:50 you want so bad I was in my 20s let me tell you girl you are like going on the bachelor bachelor bachelor and ex on a beach that was just like fun that was just like let's have a good time let's make this money and just like but still think of it like very few people get to do reality TV at all you were on four different networks crazy i never like applied for any of them that's okay so that is what i wanted to get to get to because i think it's so interesting to figure out how somebody got started on reality tv so whenever i have somebody who's in the reality tv world i like to go back and see how you very first got started so how did you get started on the dallas cowboys like i know you were you were already
Starting point is 00:02:28 cheering for them yeah so i started dancing all through high school, college, and then I actually auditioned for the New York Jets. So I danced for the Jets for two seasons. And then my coach was a DCC. She was an alumni. And I always looked up to her and I was like, oh, one day I'm going to do DCC
Starting point is 00:02:43 because they're the best, you know, America's team. And so I actually worked for Disney for a little bit for a year. I was friends with Princess Tiana. Which is also awesome. A best job ever. I love that so much. I was like, you know what? I'm going back to America.
Starting point is 00:02:56 I'm going back home and I needed something I wanted to, you know, I still wanted to dance. That's like that fire. So my best friend was like, let's go to Dallas, packed up our stuff, and we just auditioned, and boom, made the team, and we had to move there literally within a week. And I did it for three seasons, and it was the best. So was it already being on camera whenever you auditioned and everything?
Starting point is 00:03:14 No. Or you were already on the team, and then the cameras came. So when we applied, they reached out to us. CMT was like, hey, we see that you're auditioning to be a Cowish cheerleader. We want to follow some girls. You know, your friend are from New York, New Jersey, would you guys want to be featured? And we already knew there was a show. But my thing was, if I.
Starting point is 00:03:31 I'm on this show either it's going to make me or break me. Like you're going to make the team or you're not going to make the team. I'm like, because you're going to be so focused. And I was like, all right, fine. I'll do it. You know, why not? God, let me tell you. That was the most stressful thing ever because you're filming.
Starting point is 00:03:45 Also, you have to like really make, you want to make the team. So it's like, you're on the show. They want to interview you. But like, no, I have to go practice. And they're like, no, we have to come over and watch you, like, stretch. And I'm like, no, like, I actually want to make this team. This isn't like a TV show for me. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:03:58 You know, so your mind is just like all over the place. But it was honestly like the best thing ever. So it worked out. If you don't mind me asking, what do Dallas Cowboy cheerleaders make? Or at least when you did it. At least when you did it. Okay. So when I was on the team.
Starting point is 00:04:15 Hold on one second. Okay. Okay. Let me ask you that one more time. Yep. Okay. If you don't mind me asking, what does a Dallas Cowboy Cheerleader usually make? Well, I'm sure it's a little different now.
Starting point is 00:04:30 But when I was on the team, so when you make the team your first year, anytime you do an appearance, you get paid like $100. So it's like your year one, get $100 in appearance. Second year, $200. So like every year, you got $100 a game? This is appearances. So when you're going out to say go to an old home or something, signing autographs and taking pictures, that's called an appearance.
Starting point is 00:04:50 And that you would get paid like a flat rate $100 for that. Okay. Not a lot. But we weren't getting paid hourly at all. So that was the thing that was like kind of like, okay, what's going on here? Like, there's the money. We only got paid for our games.
Starting point is 00:05:02 So we get paid. There's like, what, eight games a season, home games? Yeah. Plus preseason. So you get paid, like, each game, I forget what it was. I think it wasn't a lot. Maybe, like, I don't know, maybe $300, $400 or something like that. It wasn't a lot.
Starting point is 00:05:15 Yeah. Not at all. Like, do you think they make more now that it's gone so much bigger? I think they get hourly pay now, minimum wage, which still is BS. Yeah. I think cheerleaders should be getting paid way more because, like, you're practicing from 3 p.m. Actually, all, day 3 p.m. to like 10, no, midnight, half the time. Yeah. And then you have games and they
Starting point is 00:05:34 have all these appearances. It's like, and you also have to have a full time job on top of that. It's like, how am I supposed to work? And go to school. Yeah. And go to school. Are you still in school at the time? Yeah. Like, I didn't have a full time job until like my second year. Being a rookie. Like there was no way. I was a nanny part time babysitter. Thank God for my parents helping me. But this is like my dream to be in this team. So like, think I have money saved up. But like if you don't have support or anything, like there's no way you can have a full time job because you need to practice before the practice. Well, since the TV show got so popular, do you get paid for being on the TV show? No.
Starting point is 00:06:04 That's what's crazy. What do you think about now? I think now, I'm sure, maybe, I don't know. I've heard that there's different, I've heard that different things from two-grim people that some people say they're not, but I don't know real tea, but I'm trying to find out the tea, but I hope they are because they deserve it. Like, these girls, like, you're on a show. Like, why are you not paying them?
Starting point is 00:06:25 You know, we didn't get paid for nothing. Yeah, I mean, reality TV is hard as it is. and then, you know, you're trying to make a team. You're making a hit show. You're not going to pay for nothing. But at the day, their whole mindset is you're here because this is your dream to be a reality. So they're just following.
Starting point is 00:06:39 They're following who's trying out in real life anyway. Yeah. They're like, we'll replace you. Somebody else will be on there. Yeah. It's 100. I'm like, oh, like, why? But you know what?
Starting point is 00:06:48 It's okay because I think I love sharing my story through that because I wasn't the best, like, technical dancer. I don't know if you even know this, but I was born with a club foot. So I had had surgery when I was little. and I had to wear like braces on my feet. And like doctors told my mom I wouldn't dance for like, I wouldn't just be a dance. Like there's no way she's going to dance.
Starting point is 00:07:04 She can barely. She's not even going to be able to walk. Oh, I didn't know that. And then all of a sudden like, you know, my mom put me in dance and boom, I'm like making all these teens. You loved it. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:12 So I just feel like for me it was like, I'm going to do this because I love to perform. That's amazing. And I think being a cheerleader. It's not just about, you know, being technical. There's like a whole round with, sorry, around a person you have to be.
Starting point is 00:07:24 Yeah. Oh, girl. I love cheerily. Yeah, I remember. It's not just about, like, technique. I love cheerleading. But it was hard for me. But go back and watch if you want to laugh.
Starting point is 00:07:31 Yeah. Because it was really funny. I want to go back and see it. Because I feel like I watched it back then, but I didn't know you back then. So I probably didn't realize it to you. Yeah. Go back. You'll laugh.
Starting point is 00:07:40 Like, because it's been so many years now. Yeah. It's been over 10 years. Yeah. So if I went back now, I'd probably be like, oh my gosh. I do know. Getting called into office every night. That was me.
Starting point is 00:07:51 Javan, you can't dance. I'm like, thank you, yes, ma'am. Oh my gosh. But it was fun. Honestly, it was the best experience of my life. I swear. That's how I got on that show. That's amazing.
Starting point is 00:07:59 Whenever I was growing up, I always looked up to the Dallas Cowboys cheerleaders. Especially being from Kentucky. Like, that was just such a good thing. Everybody wanted to be a Dallas Cowboys cheerleader. And you got to actually do it. That's so fun. It's the best experience. Okay.
Starting point is 00:08:11 So now we're going to go on to your next show. The Bachelor. How did this come about? How did it come? Like, how did you get started on The Bachelor? Yes. So my best friend, Jessica, she actually, actually applied and got asked to do it and she ended up being in a relationship at the time and they
Starting point is 00:08:29 were like okay so she was like you know what I have the perfect person my friend jazen and I just got out out of a relationship and I was moving actually back I was in san francisco at the time and I was supposed to move back home and she was like do you want me to like tell them about you and I was like what show she's like the bachelor I'm like oh I heard about it but I didn't really watch it because I was like one there's not a lot of black girls on this show like I was like who's watching the show like not my for me But then she was like, you just got to like, you know, do it. It'll be fun.
Starting point is 00:08:59 Trust me. You'll be great. And I'm like, fine. Put my name in. They literally called me like a week later. It's like, hey, do you want to come, we want to fly you out to L.A. to, you know, meet with our producers. And I'm like, sure.
Starting point is 00:09:10 Why not? Like, as I say yes to everything, like a crazy person. That's good. And flew out to L.A. Did my interview. And they were like, oh, my God, we love you. And I remember, Alon, he was at the time, one of, like, the top producers there. He was like, well, I just want to say, can you get off of work or whatever because I want you on this show?
Starting point is 00:09:29 And I was like, what? He's like, yeah, like, you're on it. Like, I want you. I was like, okay, sure, great. Like, I guess I'm not moving back to Jersey because that was my plan. Yeah, and that's how I got on The Bachelor. And my friend's kept saying, just make it to paradise. I'm like, that's where you want to go.
Starting point is 00:09:45 I'm like, okay, make it to paradise. Yeah, I mean, it's crazy because everything happens for a reason, you know, like you got, you did all that stuff and that led you into like, meeting so many different people, kind of how you probably met a lot of us even. I know. Like, is because... Really, like, if you think about it,
Starting point is 00:10:00 like the Bachelor coming, you know, off the Bachelor, moving to Cal, you know, LA, and then meeting just like, people connected, like, oh, you're in the Bachelor, meet this person. Yeah.

Did you, do you know who the bachelor is before you shoot? I don't know about that. So when they told me, they cast it me about two weeks before it was supposed to start. I was a late cast person. And they were like, okay, they called me and they're like, hey, just so, you know, I'm sorry,
Starting point is 00:12:24 you saw the news, but we changed The Bachelor. it was supposed to be like Luke or some other guy at that time. And they're like, we changed it to a guy named Nick and do you know who he is. And I was like, no. I was like, who is this? And they're like, well, we just want to know if you still want to do it because a lot of girls are backing out. Oh, shit. A lot of girls backed out.
Starting point is 00:12:40 Yeah, they told us like a lot of girls are, you know, say you don't want to do it. Have you watched it? And I'm like, no, I don't know anything about him. But I was like, you know, I'm still interested. But I'll give you my final decision tomorrow. Let me go look. So I went home, my who hell's Nick? I'm asking my friend Jessica, who's Nick?
Starting point is 00:12:54 He's the bad boy. and da-da-da-da-da. Everyone hates him. I'm like, what? And I'm like, I watched a little bit of his, like, season on Paradise. I was like, oh, he doesn't seem that bad. He seems tall. Like, good-looking. I was like, he didn't seem like that bad. I'm from Jersey. I'm like, bad boys, like, my language, you know. I'm like, let's do it. I was like, yeah, let's go. He doesn't seem like he's that, like, awful. But I didn't watch his season. I didn't watch his, like, Badgerette. He didn't watch Paradise. And that's where he, I guess, was changing and being nice. So I love it. Let's do it. Yeah. And I was like, great. So this is my bachelor. And I was like, great. So this is my bachelor. neck like but getting out of that limousine like did they tell you guys like you have to do something special like I know some yeah like dress up like how does that go it was so weird for me I didn't want to do anything I just wanted to get out and say hi hello this is me yeah but of course good old along I love him he came to me he's like hey like I have an idea like what like what if we like have you go out of the limo with Neil Lang like I have rings like you know Neil Lang he's like the ring guy yeah yeah yeah and like bring rings and just be like kind of like
Starting point is 00:13:54 cute and sassy to him like hey, this is the ring I like. I'm a size like five or whatever. And then like introduce yourself. And I was like, okay, I'll do it. Because I didn't care. At the time, I didn't really understand the Bachelor world and how it works. I just kind of watched like one or two seasons.
Starting point is 00:14:09 And I didn't get it like how important that moment was. It just like look pretty and cute. And I'm a Dallas College cheerleader. I'm like, I got this in the bag. So I was like, yeah, let's do it. Bring Neil Lang. So I'm in a car with Neil Lang by myself. But every other limo had, all the girls are together.
Starting point is 00:14:24 They're like five in each limo. So they all got the bond and get to know each other. And I'm walking in by myself. Yeah. So scary. It was like the scariest thing in the world. I felt so embarrassed. But, you know, just kind of got to roll with it.
Starting point is 00:14:34 Who would be your closest friend, if any, that you have from the season that you were on? Oh, my gosh. I have like a group of like, okay. So Raven, Gates, Alexis Waters, Daniel Lombard and Jamie King and Brittany. That's it. Awesome. It was like my core girls. I can't just pick one of them.
Starting point is 00:14:52 I've met majority of them. I love Alexis. Yes. She is hilarious. I was trying to see her while she was in town recently, but I wasn't able to go. She's the best. What was it?
Starting point is 00:15:02 The chain festival. Chain fest. Yeah. I was supposed to go. Couldn't go last minute. But I was hoping I was going to get to see her. She is so funny. She's hilarious.
Starting point is 00:15:12 It has no filter. And like, no filter. Like when she, she showed up in like a dolphin or dolphin. She was a shark, shark. She was a shark, but she kept saying that she wants to be a dolphin. And everyone was like, and at first I was like, at first I was side eye. her like is she wearing like this girl
Starting point is 00:15:27 I was like whatever but again I didn't watch the show to know that that's funny and that you should do something to stand out I just thought she was being crazy I'm like we had her a girl with a hot dog and a book it was just a lot so you but you walked up with the ring to talk I walked up with fucking Neil Lang bitch
Starting point is 00:15:44 Neil Lang and it was so funny because I'm in the car with Neil fucking Lang and he's sitting with me in the car and we're not and they're giving him talk to you at all he there was a producer in the car and the limo with us and they're giving him directions and he's all like nervous and I think he's not his first time doing and he's all like sweating you know and he's all he's like so what do I do again what do I say and I'm like okay I'm like I just I'm supposed to present him and it was kind of funny Nick thought it was hilarious
Starting point is 00:16:09 okay good but like you should put a montage of all your first time entering on all these different shows oh that actually good I should do that I'm gonna hire someone to do that literally I'm telling I'm writing a book one day like yeah you should because like this is so many different like productions and different networks and just different behind the scene things that you could talk about. And I was on The Bachelor at a time before, like, social media blew up. Yeah, yeah. Like, it was just starting. So it was a different time.
Starting point is 00:16:37 Oh, yeah. Everything's different even for me. Like, as long as I've been on reality TV, like, when I first started, I think I had like 4,000 followers when I started on voter pump rules. And now, and it's just like so crazy. But it's just crazy how, like, how much social media has changed. Yeah. over all these years in very positive ways and very negative ways.
Starting point is 00:16:57 Yeah. It's so different. Like when I think about The Bachelor, too, like, I think I was on a time where girls actually really were looking kind of for a relationship or we're kind of serious. Yeah. Maybe not all of us. We're just there for fun. But like now girls are doing it.
Starting point is 00:17:09 They want, you know, they want the Instagram. They want the followers. Then we weren't thinking about that because it wasn't really that important. Yeah. You know. Do you think that nowadays it is overshadowed by that by people wanting to get famous? I do. I haven't watched.
Starting point is 00:17:23 the last couple seasons but I just feel like when I see or hear like I have my friends like semi videos in the group chat we have and they're like oh god look at these girls they're just doing it for cloud and they just you know they're not there looking for a relationship and I'm like I believe that because look at the world right now everything is about you know just try to make it right trying to get out I mean every now some people still are going to connect and find love because it's people like minded I mean you're both going for a show like that you know what you're doing you're putting yourself out there in that way you could possibly no you can't yeah but I
Starting point is 00:17:53 get what you're saying where social media has changed so much. I mean, because the bachelor's been on for years. I mean, Tristan Ryan, I watched that. That was the first one, right? I know who they are. Yeah. They're like the OGs. I think that was the first and the last one I've ever watched all the way through.
Starting point is 00:18:08 Like, I know so many bachelor people, but it's because of my team, like, works with a lot of Bachelorette bachelor people and they're my actual friends. But they're, yeah, it's like, it's such a different experience, I think now. Yeah. If I talk to it, if I talk to someone right now, that's on the Bachelorette. that when I was on it, oh, it was fully different. Yeah. Oh, I can 100% understand.
Starting point is 00:18:28 We were wild. I understand. Like I said, even for me, it's changed so much. And it's also hard with reality TV because I've noticed even with like some of our cast, like being on it for the first time. Like that could be a lot. And then, you know, a lot of times people live in the comment section and they take it too serious. And even me being a quote unquote veteran, I still get in my head at the comment section. Yeah, we all do.
Starting point is 00:18:53 It could be like, it can be really tough and it can make you like kind of monitor yourself. And whenever in reality, being your true self, it makes for better TV and makes people relate to you more than if you try to like limit yourself. Yeah. Just because of what people are saying online. That was me. I didn't really pay it. At that time, again, social media was in my mind. There was in like comments wasn't a thing I was worried about.
Starting point is 00:19:14 Like I got a little bit on DZC. But like, it was like through Facebook back. Yeah, yeah. And so going off the batch, I was like, whoa, this is a different world. I was like, I have the block people. I'm like, what is a block like button? I didn't, the mental health. I was like sad.
Starting point is 00:19:28 I'm like, wow, because at that time I was just being myself and I didn't realize, oh, shit, I should have pulled back. I thought, you know. No, I think now people are like very censored. Yeah, I think it's always better to be yourself. But it can be hard because you see what everybody's saying and then you start thinking like, oh, I am the villain or I am the dumb one or I am the one or I am the drunk one or I am the stupid.
Starting point is 00:19:48 Like, you just start like thinking about that. But really, like, there's so much more love out there than there is hate. And we're so lucky that the Valley took off and like how great our fans are. Like it's like very, it's amazing how much success it's had. And we're so grateful. Yes. So before we get into the Valley and stuff, we got to go on to your next one. We're going in order.
Starting point is 00:20:06 This I love this. This is great. We are going in order. The history of Jasmine. Okay. So that was your Bachelor. Now next is, I keep calling it Love and Paradise. I don't know why.
Starting point is 00:20:17 Bachelor in Paradise. But Bachelor in Paradise. How did you get chosen for that show? So normally they take the like popular. I don't say popular. I don't want to say popular. That's kind of bad. But like the ones from the previous season from Bachelor and Bachelor and the Bachelorette.
Starting point is 00:20:35 They take like the, you know, the ones who made it pretty far. Yeah. The top gun, you know, people and put them all in a house in Mexico. So I kind of expected I was going to get asked just because I made it to the top like 10. And I was like, okay, normally top 10. My friend told me before going and out, make the top 10. top 10. So you get on Paradise. That's all you need. I was like, yes,
Starting point is 00:20:55 I'll do whatever it takes. So I love it. So I made it to Paradise. I think because just being one of like the top 10 popular girls, whatever, um, and Paradise was so much fun. I think that was more my vibe, my speed because you're not just fighting for one guy.
Starting point is 00:21:11 You're just having a good time with your friends and we shut it down. Like literally shut it down. Because that was a crazy year. Isn't that really nerve-wracking though? Because you have to, well, I've, I've, only seen like one season of it because I had to do an interview with like Tanner. Oh yes. You know. And so I like watched like a couple of episodes that he was on because I'd never seen love and paradise before. Bachelor. Oh my God. Why don't you do that? I think there might be a show call
Starting point is 00:21:36 Love and Paradise actually. I've never seen Bachelor in Paradise before. I can't do it. I think I did that even whenever Tanner was on the podcast. But um yeah. So I like watched a couple episodes and like he had to like walk down and introduce himself and like pick people to go on the date and like right away like that is nerve-wracking because he wasn't the OG so he came in like after yeah so if you come in later they give you a date card did you come in late I haven't seen in your season okay so you were already down there yeah they basically bring yeah they bring everybody comes in like go down on the beach and everybody starts rolling in and you see all your friends from your season and all the boys from the other season you're like ah you know and it's like game on but then at the end it's like you
Starting point is 00:22:14 have to still wait for the freaking rose. Oh my God. And you still have a rose ceremony. But this time, every, like, it goes girl, boys back and forth. So, like, I got to give out a rose and then the boys get to give out roses. So it was fun. I was tracking up because, like, people would go on one day and then they would be, like, mad. You know?
Starting point is 00:22:30 And I'm like, wait, you just go out one day. That was me. I was the same person because you do. You don't understand. Like, in that world, like, it's not like our show where it's, like, real day, life. Yeah, yeah. You were stuck in a resort in Mexico. One day feels like a week.
Starting point is 00:22:44 Because you can't have phones or TVs or TVs or anything, right? No TVs. You can't read books. You just have to talk to music. You're hanging out with your friends and you're talking. So all one day is literally like a week long. So, you know, you go on a date. You think you dating this person for a week now.
Starting point is 00:22:57 So another girl comes in. She's like, I want to take the guy you're talking to on a date. And you're like, wait, what? You're supposed to be my friend? Like, I had a friend do that to me. And I was like, piss. You had a friend asked somebody that you want to date with on a date? Yes.
Starting point is 00:23:10 Shut up. I was dating, I was dating, whatever you want to call it, this guy on the, on my, on Paradise. And I knew my friend, my friend was coming and I knew she was. We talked about like that she was coming. And so she gets there. And I'm telling her like my experience with this guy.
Starting point is 00:23:24 I'm like, yeah, I'm dating, you know. You told her before. Yeah, we're all talking about our date. Yeah. And we went on and she's like, okay. And then she has to pick who she wants to go on a date with. And I'm like thinking, okay, she's not clearly going to ask the guy I'm with.
Starting point is 00:23:35 She does, of course. And I'm so pissed. But I'm trying to be cool. But you know Alexis is asked. Yeah. She's like, they're all egging me on. Alexis and Raven. And well.
Starting point is 00:23:44 the bar, because Wells is the bartending. I've had a valve on here, too. I'm cool. I'm chill. Like, let's just take shots. She can go ahead. She can have him. And they're egging me on. Like, you should go say something at her.
Starting point is 00:23:54 And I'm like, so that was the moment where I stormed down the beach. And I'm like, you want the TV, ABC? Like, I'm okay. That was so pissed that, like, she would do that to me. Yeah, because, I mean, you were just talking to her about it. Yes, girl. We all were, like, telling each other, like, who were, like, matched up with. Did she pick two guys or just the one guy?
Starting point is 00:24:11 I think, I'm not sure if she got to pick two dates. I think it was one. But still, that's even worse. I was just like, damn, girl. And did he went? Yeah, he went. And which I thought he wasn't going to go, but he did tell me he was going. Hey, I'm going on this dealer.
Starting point is 00:24:25 I'm like, whatever, get out of my face. And I was like, you know what? I'm over this shit. But that's what happens. Like, you get so like wrapped up in it. Yeah. But in real life, like, you wouldn't even care. Yeah, you wouldn't.
Starting point is 00:24:38 But like there, it was like you spend one day with somebody. You think it's like, oh, I'm going to get married. very competitive person, so I feel like I would feel the competition. And be like, oh, hell no. Like, I'm supposed to win this or something, you know. I'm like, I got this going well for me. I'm like, first of all, I had all the guys after me. I thought I was like, kill.
Starting point is 00:24:56 I was like, I'm the queen of powers. They actually were calling me to print queen of powers with all the boys. I was like, yes, I got them all. And then I decided to pick the one that was going to stray. I'm like, damn, I'm just ruining my chances here. That's hilarious, the one that was going to stray. I should have picked the one that was like literally like bringing me. breakfast every day, but I'm over here like, oh, that's what happens when you're young.
Starting point is 00:25:17 Oh, yeah. We ignore all the red flags. I'm like, dang. I had one guy who's like literally begging at me to give me as a rose. And I was like, oh, gosh. Like, I'm telling you now in my new dating life, like, if I start seeing red flags, I'm just going to be like, nope. Girl, see, now you're done.
Starting point is 00:25:31 Yeah. You learn in your 20s, you go through it and you learn now you're 30s. Like, listen, I know what to do. I had one little, like, secret rendezvous that the whole world has to find out about it. It's like, you know, what most people if they most people if they like hook up with somebody the whole world doesn't find out
Starting point is 00:25:48 about it exactly like I did everything in private it was just a like hookup thing after my divorce to like make me feel better as you should I knew somebody I liked that I thought I could trust I found out a lot of things later on can't go into too much detail you'll find out all about this soon but trust me
Starting point is 00:26:06 there was a lot of things that I found out later on and it's just like if I ever see red flags now you know I'm like No. Goodbye. But you should be able to do your thing, though. So let me just keep that. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:26:16 I'm going to have fun and do whatever. But the whole red flags thing is like, I don't even think that term was invented whenever I started dating. I don't even think so. Right. When you started taking drugs, there was no like, right, no term for red flags. It was just deal with it. I don't know. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:26:32 Just go with the flow. Exactly. And now I'm like, oh, okay. Yeah. But that was my bachelor paradise life. Mental health is so important. and there have been so many times where I have needed people to talk to. I have been through a lot over the past couple of years and, you know, dealing with breakups,
Starting point is 00:26:53 dealing with heartbreak, dealing with stress, dealing with anxiety, dealing with life, dealing with everything.

Starting point is 00:29:25 I love that. Also, Bachelor in Paradise, so like, are you allowed to, like, drink, or do they limit everything? Girl, we, so again, I was on it at a different time. Yes, things are different now. So I think my season was when they stopped the free, for all, open bar. situation. On The Bachelor, we got to drink whatever you want. I remember waking up, making mimosas, and we were drinking at 11 a.m. because there's nothing to do. Yeah. Hinking at the pool. Liquor everywhere. Bachel in Paradise, that was the same until that whole crazy
Starting point is 00:29:57 scandal thing happened. You don't have to talk about it, but you can Google it and look it up my year. And then they went to a whole to drink an hour. Okay. Yeah. And then you had to sign like a book every time we got a drink. We're like waiting at the bar. Okay. next drink please I'm like damn my signature drink please yeah but before we got there we were like
Starting point is 00:30:18 going at it everyone's drinking crazy yeah it was just like insane well another thing about it too it's like reality TV is intense and like you want to have drinks because you want to be able to loosen up
Starting point is 00:30:30 yeah I don't think people realize that like like a lot of people were like Brady will take a lot of shots or blah blah blah I'm like I don't I'm not upset at home drinking just so you guys know Do you guys understand what's happening here? Like, I'm walking into the death fire pit. Like, you'll see, there's some moments of season.
Starting point is 00:30:46 I was almost saying. I'm like, I have to drink right now because you need to like, I mean, not everybody needs to drink, but for me, it helps me loosen up. Relax a little bit. Yeah, relax. And 80, I need that, like, calm. I don't know. I agree 100%.
Starting point is 00:31:00 Because it can be tough. I mean, we're facing things that most people wouldn't always face whenever you do reality TV. Like, if I got mad at you, I wouldn't normally the very next. day. I mean, maybe I would, but depending on what happened, I wouldn't have to, like, come and confront you the very next day. Yeah, it could be like a week or a month path. Yeah, or we can
Starting point is 00:31:17 like text each other or whatever, but no, it's got to be to each other's face. It's got to be, you know, it's like different. Like, it's a different type of, like, beast and world. Yeah, it can be, it's amazing and like, you know, it is our real lives, but you also, it can be intimidating. Yes. So, yeah, so whatever
Starting point is 00:31:33 you need to help you I need that shot. So, yes, I was definitely drinking on. I'm like, Give me a tequila shot. Right. Give me a tequila, please. All the tequila. Okay, so up next then is whenever you moved over to MTV.
Starting point is 00:31:49 Oh, my God. How did that happen? We have to talk about. Just a little bit. Okay. Oh, God. I want to like, erase that from my brain. Like, it's not even, is it even a show anymore?
Starting point is 00:31:58 I don't know. I don't know. So after Paradise, I was working with the new manager at this time, and he was getting Chase from the Bachelor. on this show called X on the Beach. And he was like, hey, they're paying really well. And I was like, you know, I was like 20. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:32:16 I was like, I was like young still. And I was like, you know what? It's like, why not? I'm single. Like, I'm already off the show. My contract's up with ABC. And I was like, let's make some money. Let's make a good TV show.
Starting point is 00:32:25 And it was a hit show in like the UK. And I was like, oh, that's cool. Let's do it. So I'm like, fine. I'll sign up for it. So I end up on Ex on Libby. Who came on there with you? And that was, that was the hard part.
Starting point is 00:32:38 So my ex. This is where I hate explain this story. He wasn't really my ex. He was like a guy dated for a little bit in L.A. My friend Marco, he just dated for a little bit. But they needed me to have an ex. And I was like, all my real exes would never. Because they only had about like four guys I dated before that and like two girls.
Starting point is 00:32:55 And I was like, none of them are going to come on this show. And so they were like, well, you got to find somebody. I was like, well, I dated this guy. He's like an actor, comedian. And I'm like, he'll do it. And he was like, yeah, I'll do it. And I was like, perfect. Let's go.
Starting point is 00:33:06 Just rummy my money. And I regret doing it because when I got it. there, I wanted to come home so bad. Oh, really? Yeah, I call my, threatening, call my manager, like, two days in. Why were you wanting to come home so bad? Because MTV people are crazy. Like, I'm coming from ABC,
Starting point is 00:33:21 you know, conservative, no fights, like physical fights. Oh, they were physical fights? I mean, I'm coming in a house where people are spinning on each other. Like, I'm talking, girls from the bad girls club. Oh, yeah. That type of. Yeah. I'm not about it. Oh, that would scare me. I was like, I want to leave.
Starting point is 00:33:37 Yes, I was like, I want to live. I was like, I'm like, I want to leave. I'm on my phone, my manager. I'm like, I just want to get out of here, please. And he's like, Jasmine, it's only a month. He's like, just make your money. Just lay low. Do you have to stay the whole time?
Starting point is 00:33:47 I don't really know much about that show. I technically could, well, yeah, so X, like, it's like a month long. You post this, you're supposed to stay. But if you leave, like, I mean, I think I still would have got paid about love. I can't remember. But he's like, just stick it out. But it's not like a get knocked off show. Oh, no, the OG.
Starting point is 00:34:01 So, yeah, you can. But the OG is, like I was an OG. so we got to stay as in our contract, but anyone else that floated in, like the exes, they can get kicked off. Okay. So I knew I was getting kicked off,
Starting point is 00:34:11 but it was just like, so he's like, just stay there, you know, go through the motions, get your check, and I'm like, fine. So I just like went through it,
Starting point is 00:34:18 didn't like anybody. They made me go on dates. They're like, jazz, we've got to take this guy on a day. I'm like, fine. I'm on the date. Do it for TV. I'm like,
Starting point is 00:34:25 I'm an entertainer. I can do this, go this, but it was just too much. Like MTV people are props to them because you know how to fight. Yeah, I didn't think about that.
Starting point is 00:34:35 Like, going from ABC to MTV. I'm used to, like, little catty fights. Like, oh, my God, you stole him and I wanted to talk to Nick first. To, like, girl spit in your face. Like, I mean, I was scared. Yeah, I would be, too. Yeah, it was. That's why, like, going on, like, one of these, like, huge competition shows would be so scary to me.
Starting point is 00:34:55 I mean, I would probably do it just for, like, the experience because, like, I want to push myself. Yeah, you should. But it would still be, like, so intimidating. That's what it felt. I could never do like the channel. Just so many different personalities. And these people were like, you know, from are you the one and challenge? And I was like, woo, it's scary.
Starting point is 00:35:11 I was like, oh, I thought I was big and bad. No. I was like, day, I want to leave. This is so bad. Oh. The girl, the mean girls. It was really bad. Well, and now, of course, you are on the Valley.
Starting point is 00:35:25 So I took a break. I took a long break between that. I was like, after XM and I'm never doing reality TV again. That's how I was cursed. And like, not curse. I was scorn. And I said I would never do any more shows. I was done unless it was like Survivor.
Starting point is 00:35:37 Yeah. That's fun. That wasn't drama involved. Yeah. Because this is not worth it. Yeah. Because this is not worth it. But yeah, now I'm on the Valley.
Starting point is 00:35:45 How is being on the Valley different than these like competition type shows that you've done? Oh my God. It's just your real life. It's real. You know, I think the Valley is harder because I think the Bachelor, you know what you're there for. You're like, okay, I'm here to. try to win a guy's heart.
Starting point is 00:36:03 Yeah. Ex-a-be-jured. I'm here just to, like, fight with my ex. Like, this is, like, my life. Like, we're not in Mexico. Exactly. Filming. Like, this is every day here. You're dealing with your real friends, real emotions, real life things that are going on besides, like, you know, what we're filming in the show.
Starting point is 00:36:19 So it's, yeah, it's definitely harder, I think. Yeah, because you're putting yourself out there in a much more, like, real and serious way. Yep. Yeah. Yes. I think it's definitely, uh, it was a, it was, for me, a struggle at first to see how. how different it was. I was like, whoa, I got this.
Starting point is 00:36:34 I've been on TV. No, no, no, no. It's a different type of like filming TV. It is. Yeah, because I feel like in all the other ones, except for Dallas Cowboys cheerleaders, you were like in a house, in a mansion, in a, you know,
Starting point is 00:36:46 like. I was in Mexico. Yeah. Hawaii. Like, that's like, you're there in a house and your whole job is just to sit and talk about love. And now it's like, no, I got to go to work. I got to go, you know, go spend time with my,
Starting point is 00:36:57 my girlfriend, give her, you know, time and do all these talk to be with my family. It's just all these other. there are life things that are going on while you're filming a show. And so people don't understand that like give us grace sometimes because we have a lot of things going on and it's not just sitting down having fun all the time. Yeah, exactly. But I think that's what is so great about the Valley is that we are all so real.
Starting point is 00:37:16 And like people can relate to our what we go through. Like I think that's why it took off so well. Oh my God. Because I think we were just like ourselves. Like I really was nervous. I always thought like when we start our show like, oh, we're going to be like people. I think we're like Vanderpump are trying to be like them. but we were honestly just
Starting point is 00:37:34 It was like weird. Yeah, it was so different. I was like, okay, we're just being ourselves. Like, this is really how we would be if there was no cameras here. Yeah. I mean, Jackson and I wanted it to be all people that we actually liked
Starting point is 00:37:46 and that we knew and that was real because that was also why VaynerPump Rules was so good. Yeah. Because it was all real friends from the very beginning. They all worked together at serve, blah, blah, blah.
Starting point is 00:37:56 I remember. And I think that that's like a recipe for like a good show. Whenever you start trying to throw people in and cast people. Unless it is a competition show, it doesn't make as much sense. 100%. I think that's why the Valley's so great.
Starting point is 00:38:09 And, like, we get to go to work and have fun. Yes, I love my job. Yeah. This is the best job ever. It is. Why would you do it? I'm like, because it's fun. But I just know it has to be a lot different for you compared to the other types of shows
Starting point is 00:38:21 that you were on. So different. Also, you worked at Sir. I don't know if most people know that about you. Yes. You worked there after I was not working there anymore. Yeah, so you weren't working there. Jacks was working there a little bit.
Starting point is 00:38:34 He would come in and do some. Every now. She was working there. James, Hill. I don't know if Tom was there a little bit. Katie wasn't. Yeah. So I was there when like you guys were, this is pre before the baby.
Starting point is 00:38:47 Yeah, yeah. This is before the baby. This is like, but it was after I stopped working there. Yes. But before like COVID and stuff. And Lala wasn't working there at the time. Yeah. I think she, I know she did it.
Starting point is 00:38:58 Yes. Right before COVID, I was working there. How did you get started working there? Honestly. I'm trying to think. Okay, when I go back, so when I moved to L.A., I met, you probably remember Hope. It's a girl named Hope. I met her.
Starting point is 00:39:16 She was from Kentucky, too, yeah. So I moved in with her. Her brother Justice was friends with Blake. She was, Hope was one of the people that we knew that James was cheating on Raquel with, by the way. Yes. Which is very much a true story. They denied it the entire time, but it was 100% true. I didn't sad because I kind of knew.
Starting point is 00:39:34 Because I knew because I didn't really know all y'all. But I knew what was going on. Yeah. I mean, she told us all to our face. No, she hoped told us all that they hooked up. But like James, I think, and Raquel, they always denied it. Like, no, this was a long time ago. I think we even like hit on this on Vayner Pupperels.
Starting point is 00:39:49 I'm pretty sure Hope was all a couple episodes. Yeah, no, she definitely filmed because she did she's like, I have to film. And I was like, what? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It's because we were trying to like let Raquel know that we knew. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:39:57 But I mean, she says it's true and you know it was true, right? Yeah. Yes, it was. It was. But guess what? I wasn't friends with anybody. Like, well, I wasn't friends with James at the time. So just through her.
Starting point is 00:40:08 But so that's kind of how I knew the group through like Sheena. And so I met Sheena through Jesse and then kind of just that world. Not our Jesse. Yeah. Not our Jesse. So how did it work that, sir? How I got the job? Yeah, you just met.
Starting point is 00:40:26 Yeah, I met. It was through, oh, man, I think it was through Jesse. I met it because he was friends. Chasina and then they were you know he was like hey we need a host I can get you try to get your job and Danica whoever yeah and they you know just started working I was host at serve and and then that's how you got to know all of us yep and now all you guys and that led to the valley years later I know so wild I'm telling you everything happens for a reason no it really does because I don't know if you know maybe you know this they were trying to get me on
Starting point is 00:40:54 Farner Pump I think when they were trying to get a bunch of new people oh yeah yeah and I was like no I just want to work here I like working here Don't want to do any more reality TV. I'm scared. I don't want to do anymore. I was like, I need a break. Like, you know. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:41:07 But I'm glad I didn't because kind of all. Now look. Yeah. Because who knows if that would happen, you would, even would have worked out. If it would have been like a one and done, like some of the other ones that came on. Exactly. And then you wouldn't be on the valley now. Like, you just never know.
Starting point is 00:41:21 It worked out perfectly. Yeah. I'm happy about that. And I love you on the valley so much. I love you. I love you. I love you. I love you.

Starting point is 00:44:08 So I get her my Instagram and then I'm like, come here. So I try to like kiss her and like, because I was like, fuck your girlfriend. I'm like, you came outside and it threw her. And then she pushed back. So I got like played and I was like, oh, she played me. She didn't kiss me. But I was like, all right. So I ran away, went home.
Starting point is 00:44:25 And then we just kind of kept in contact for four years after that. Four years just DMing and one. whatever. And then the pandemic. Being friends. Yeah. Pandemic happened. She's like, hey, I'm coming out to L.A.
Starting point is 00:44:36 I can work remote. I got a place. I will love to take you on a date. And I'm like, sure. Why not? Like, let's do it. And then we want one date and then we never left each other side. It was like from that date, every day we were with each other.
Starting point is 00:44:47 Crazy. Oh, I love that. I love that. And now you've been together for literally four years. Four years. Like, yeah, this past. Yeah. October.
Starting point is 00:44:57 That is crazy. October 10. And also, I mean, I'm sure a lot of people. People do know this, but some people probably don't. Melissa was also on Netflix's Squid games. And she made it pretty far. Yeah, there's 465 of them. She made to like top 60, which is in scene.
Starting point is 00:45:13 I was so proud of her because the stuff she told me and the things I were like, I can't even believe, like seven hour long red light green light. Oh my gosh. You try stand still. She said it was bad. People were going to pull down stretchers. Like you could talk to her by it. But she said it was insane.
Starting point is 00:45:29 I'm sure because they were trying to make it as real. as they could, right? You see like five, two minutes of it, though, when they show it on air. She was like, there was a girl like holding a squat and I guess and people were like, why, I could hold a squat and red light green light. They're like, no, not for 25 minutes. No. Heck no.
Starting point is 00:45:45 Like, it was bad. She said people were like, had a seizures. Like, it was. Golly, I bet. Because it's hard. Yeah, but she played D1 lacrosse. She's like so good at that stuff. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:45:56 That's her vibe. You guys are super athletic of her. I mean, I guess a lot. a little athlete she's the real athletic one i'm more like stand the sidelines you know you're like run go girl yeah well yeah and a lot of people wondered like why she couldn't be on the show so much and there was a lot of that because she was already under contract with netflix and we didn't know like she only did the netflix one she loves that stuff yeah yeah didn't know like what was going on with the valley at the time it was all new and we're like just you know do what you got to do live your life because you know you never know
Starting point is 00:46:29 one chance lifetime. She's like, I'm going to do it. And it all worked out, though, because now she came in part of it. And hopefully we'll get to see her a lot more next season. Stay tuned. Stay tuned. Wish we could talk about stuff. But obviously, you guys know once the show airs, I will be giving all the tea on this podcast.
Starting point is 00:46:48 Oh, heck yeah. Because me and you also. Yeah, we'll be back. Yeah, I know. I already know what you're thinking about. So we'll be back. Yeah, we will be back. We're not going to say why because we're not.
Starting point is 00:46:59 not trying to get in trouble. We love you, Bravo. Yes. Okay, so it is obviously October, spooky season. Ooh, Halloween. I am all about Halloween. You see my house.
Starting point is 00:47:12 Jasmine here sitting on my couch. I'm a huge decorator. I've got every single room decorated. I've probably got 50 pumpkins around my house. She does. No one. I mean, just bats everywhere.
Starting point is 00:47:24 Literally. Chinks. Yeah. Freaking bats. It's cute, guys. I've got bats everywhere. ghost everywhere, witches everywhere.
Starting point is 00:47:30 I mean, just the whole thing. I just love Halloween. And I feel like you and Melissa always, like, get into, like, costumes and get into different things.
Starting point is 00:47:40 What would be your favorite Halloween costume that you've ever done? Just maybe in case somebody's listening, like, I want a little bit of Halloween info. I mean, this is kind of basic, I guess,
Starting point is 00:47:50 but I was Buzz Lightyear, but a sexy one and Melissa was Woody, and I thought that was the cutest thing. That is cute. So, like, that year was, like, so cute. Yes.
Starting point is 00:47:58 Okay, I love that. I had Cruz at Buzz birthday party before. I thought it was so cute. There's so many answers. I love it. Yeah. I like,
Starting point is 00:48:05 that was a cute one. Yeah. Halloween is just like, great time of year. The pumpkin patches. Yeah. The pumpkin patches. I have something I want to ask you.
Starting point is 00:48:15 Yes. Okay. I saw in Jackson's Instagram that like you were all over it, all over the story. I mean, I get it. You guys are co-parenting and stuff. But like, what's that about? Well, how many videos of me did be post? I swear it was all you and just you and Cruz.
Starting point is 00:48:31 Okay, because I haven't blocked on Instagram. I'm pretty sure. We're blocked on each other's Instagram. So, yeah, a lot of people have actually came to me and said that I was all over Jackson's Instagram and stuff. And then, of course, like the people start writing articles and start doing these different things, like thinking that everything's fake and that we're back together and that blah, blah, blah. Let me explain what this was. This was my son's first all school field trip. So the entire school was there.
Starting point is 00:48:57 Sheena was there with summer. Everybody from his class was there. Not even just everybody from his class. Everybody from his school was there. The entire school was invited. It didn't look like that. So if you saw mine, I just posted Cruz and like a picture of me and him together because it was so cute. Like he had the best time ever and it was a great day.
Starting point is 00:49:15 And but Jack's like just posted me. Like I think that he just wants everyone to think that everything is just okay. But like we are trying to co-parent. So like at situations like that that we both are going to have to be at like, like, fine he begged me to go to the field trip and I'm like okay fine like of course like this is for cruise yes I'm all for that like at the end of the day me and him being able to co-parent is the goal yes for all of this and I saw that was like that's great but that does not mean he'd have to every video yeah but I just I just want people to realize that like I see that I know that but that's not
Starting point is 00:49:46 always the story like yeah it was it was his field trip and like I just feel like it sucks that I even have to like defend that because I don't want people to think that I'm not being genuine like I went through a lot you don't want to think that I'm not being genuine like I went through a lot You don't want them to think, oh, Britney is out here now. She's pretty okay. She can be on its Instagram. Yeah, it's like, no, I didn't even know that he posts me. I found out, I found out this stuff later on.
Starting point is 00:50:05 Yeah, it was all from the back. Yeah. Like, I find out later on about this stuff. And again, we are going to co-parent for Cruz. We both, that's both of our top thing. But, like, I never want anybody to think I'm being fake or that I'm lying about something or anything. Because that is not what was happening there. I was literally playing with my son at the pumpkin patch.
Starting point is 00:50:24 Yeah. That his whole school was that. He should just put himself in the video. I know. Yeah. But a lot of people got confused about that. So I'm glad that you asked me because it was just kind of like, okay, I probably need to have a conversation because I'm not trying to put like false narratives out there.
Starting point is 00:50:37 Yeah. Because I, like, I feel like whenever this season comes out and everybody sees what I've went through, there's going to be so many people that relate to what I'm going through. And I don't ever want people to think that I'm just like going do. That you kind of like, yeah, for show. No. Absolutely not. This is a co-parenting situation.
Starting point is 00:50:52 And, you know, we are trying. Hopefully one day. we can be friends. It's just not now. It's just not right now. And, you know, I'm just trying to stick and do what's best. And I think that I'll be able to explain a lot more once the season comes out. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:51:06 But I'm glad you asked me that because I'd really get tired of seeing online about me that aren't true or being like that I don't care so much or that. You know, or like acting like I don't really care that much or this or that. It's like, no, that's not. You see, Instagram. People need to remember that Instagram is one little clip of your life. Like there's always other things going on. There's always so much more to the story. 100%.
Starting point is 00:51:27 And just little stuff like that, like really just like. It gets on your skin, I'm sure. Grind my gears, like Peter Griffin would say. Grind my gears. Okay, so again, this is a reality show podcast. So I like to ask my guest, what is your favorite reality show right now that you're currently watching? Right now.
Starting point is 00:51:47 Okay. I just finished a show called Outlast on Netflix. Outlast. What's that about? I am so weird. It's about like survivalists and they live. You like stuff like that, though, you? I was like, kids me on my edge of my seat.
Starting point is 00:52:02 Oh, they have to live in the wilderness and they're broken up with the teams and they just have to outlast. Whoever stays out there the longest. Oh, wow. They have forced for the food and it's just, and then there's drama. People like going to different camps and like wrecking it, stealing things. Like, I'm like, whoa. And then they have to flare out.
Starting point is 00:52:18 You can tap out. Like, it's a whole. It's so good. Watch your guys. There's season two right now. It's so good. Okay. Awesome.
Starting point is 00:52:24 have to check that one out. Okay. If you could be on any other reality show, what would that be in Y? Okay. Oh, I love, I would say, okay, not because I want the job, but for the travel, below deck.
Starting point is 00:52:39 I love below deck. One, I just want to, I used to work on a cruise ship so I know what it's like to travel and be out there. And like, that is so amazing to have the opportunity to work and be able to see the world.
Starting point is 00:52:49 Yeah. So I don't want to be somebody's bitch, like serving, but I'll be a guest. I'll be captive standing all day maybe because that I just ride the boat. But yeah, I'll be a guest. I would like to be a guest that is pampered on the blowneck. Yes, I will be a guest. Maybe you can do that one day.
Starting point is 00:53:05 That would be awesome. Seriously. Get the valley gas on? Yeah. Like, bring the whole valley on for life. Just one day. Bravo, listen. Season three, we would love it.

Starting point is 00:53:33 I love so many But I think I would love Like I would love to get to be like a host Or a judge On like a cooking show Or like I think I love Nailed it
Starting point is 00:53:45 That show on Netflix Where it's like all funny Yeah I like that Like I think doing something like that Would be so fun Yeah Those are good, yeah.
Starting point is 00:53:54 And then it's not drama about my life. I could just, like, have fun and I could just, like, laugh. But you never experienced that. Yeah. It's a different, yours has been all real reality life stuff. Yeah, mine's always been. Like, you need to get on, like, a competition show or something. I would do it.
Starting point is 00:54:08 I would do it just for the life experience, for sure. Like, I think that in this time of my life, with everything I've been through, I need to just say yes to a lot more things. That's my problem. Yeah. But look what you have me. Exactly. I say, that's too much things.
Starting point is 00:54:19 Yeah, I want to, like, have more adventure in my life. Okay. Okay. I'm going to finish this off, which is a couple questions from fans that wrote in. Because I love doing that. Let's see. This is from Tucker Howl. What do you hope your life looks like in five years? Oh, married to my beautiful girlfriend, Melissa.
Starting point is 00:54:44 Have a home. Hopefully have a kid in the process. It's going to be harder for us. So that is where I see myself. and just, yeah, just being happy with each other and healthy. Well, you don't have to talk about this right now, obviously, but I've heard, like, your plans for that, and it's so beautiful, and I think that's amazing,
Starting point is 00:55:02 and I hope that happens for you guys. Yeah, me too. This is from Kira, or Key Kira 8. Would she appear on Selling Sunset since she's a realtor? Oh, my God. I don't think I can handle Selling Sunset. Those girls are, like, they're brutal. Have you watched it?
Starting point is 00:55:21 Michelle got to do it, but I feel like all she has to do it, but I feel like all she had to do was show a house. Yeah, I would do like what Michelle did. Yeah, yeah. But to be, oh, hell no. Those girls, they are like, I thought we. Did they go in? I think they, like, they're like some deep stuff, like, from this past season.
Starting point is 00:55:33 Like, I don't know. Like, when it comes to the cheating, they just, they do a lot, like. See, I love Chris. She's, she's from Kentucky girls. She's so nice. She's like, I haven't really watched her on the show, but like, I know her in real life and she's so kind. Yeah, she seems so sweet. And they're outfits.
Starting point is 00:55:49 I'm like, I don't think I can dress like them. How do they do? I'm like, where do you find all these clothes? I'm like, what? But no, I would do like what Michelle did. Yeah, 100%. Okay. Jasmine was such a, oh, this is from Liz.
Starting point is 00:56:04 Lizard Tron. Jasmine was such a natural last season. Did you give her any tips? Love you both. Did I give you any tips? I feel like, I think it would begin the first, yeah, before we did season one. Yeah, because I had everybody come over. We had like pool parties and different.
Starting point is 00:56:19 Well, I don't even think you guys got to come to that. Did you? I came to one. came to one yeah and then I think that my advice to everybody was always just like be yourself don't try to like produce your own scenes just be natural and like be yourself that's what I kept telling everybody like you don't want to go in with a plan of what you're going to say how you're going to act how you're going to respond because that always and that was always in my head yeah I'm like okay brittanyar I remember you and jacks both were like just have fun with it but like
Starting point is 00:56:46 be yourself because you know fans and the viewers are going to be able to call you out on your shit. People know when somebody's being fake or somebody's trying to produce something, it's just never going to work out for you if you do it that way. Yeah. Exactly. I'm like, all right, let's do this. So I think that was my biggest advice to everybody. Yeah. Be yourself. This is the funny one. This is from J.J. Ryder 75. Are you aware that Jacks is aware he's a narcissist and is trying to spin it to get sympathy for him? Oh my gosh. Yes. Yeah, I'm pretty sure everyone's aware. I'm aware. very, very aware.
Starting point is 00:57:24 I don't know. Yeah. I don't know what. That's a given JJ. Whoever wrote in. JJ Rodder. We see it and we see it. We see it.
Starting point is 00:57:34 We hear it. We're aware. We all early. Oh my gosh. Okay. We will end it on this because it's this an easy one. This is from at Mrs. underscore huggles.
Starting point is 00:57:45 What's Jasmine's favorite thing to do when she goes back to NJ? Oh, favorite thing to do. do about I'm back in Jersey. Jersey is so amazing. I honestly like hanging out with my nephew. Every time I'm back on, that's what I'm doing. With my nephew, like picking him from school, going to the park. I don't care what is.
