Jeffree Star
Hi Jeffrey Lynn. Hi Y How are you? Oh my God. Hi. How are you?
Tana Mongeau
Yes.
Jeffree Star
I needed. We really needed this.
Tana Mongeau
I am so happy. It's like just seeing you makes me really feel a type of way. It transports me to a really different time of my life having you as a guest. This is so iconic.
Jeffree Star
I really love this one. No, so when right when she said that, it triggers really good memories. I think maybe people look at us and they may think craziness, drama right away. But when every time we were together it was always positive energy. We filmed the funniest videos. All we did was laugh the entire time. So it definitely brings me back to really good times.
Unknown
It brings me back to good times because I was a fan at that time. So I feel like I was like.
Jeffree Star
And it was so cool at the.
Tana Mongeau
Time, like looking like, you know, you just think you know everything when you're young like that and it's like I definitely was that. But looking back it's like I was like, I had no money yet and I'm like this little make a wish child coming over to Jeffree star's house. And Jeffree's dressing me head to toe in Gucci and I'm playing with all the pinball machines and.
Jeffree Star
Yeah.
Tana Mongeau
Roaming around. Rest in peace. I'm kidding, I'm kidding. And all the Pomeranians and just like you really.
Jeffree Star
Oh, my God.
Tana Mongeau
I was saying I can't breathe. I'm sorry. Me just blazing over.
Jeffree Star
No, but what's crazy is in that time I was newly rich. 2013. 2013, I had $500. 2015, $50 million. So it's just like crazy. And then it just kept going and going and growing and going and going and, you know, it was a really wild ride. So Tana met me when I was in love for the very first time in a brand new house. Just figuring out who the new me was. And it was so cool to be around people that didn't give a fuck, that knew just how to have fun and didn't take me that serious because I'm so sarcastic and I think people misinterpret it all the time. Fucking idiots.
Unknown
We're the only two who have never had any sort of beef or anything.
Tana Mongeau
Yeah, that's good.
Jeffree Star
Yeah. People may think that we've had drama maybe because we haven't seen each other in a while. People do get confused. No one knows the real truth about any of their. Any of the past. I had to live it. So sadly I remember it all. But me and her.
Tana Mongeau
You have great fresher. You never forget. And I love that because I'm so the opposite. I'll call you and just be like, wait, what happened again? Like, whose drama?
Jeffree Star
Photographic memory.
Tana Mongeau
It's so great.
Jeffree Star
Yeah.
Tana Mongeau
But like, I genuinely feel like at the time it was like a whirlwind, like drama get. And everything was happening around us and everyone had beef. You know what I mean? Except for you and me.
Jeffree Star
We never did it.
Tana Mongeau
It was a bonding point.
Jeffree Star
Wendy Williams, rest in peace. She's still alive, but still recipes to her show. Shoot him. Shoot Kim.
Tana Mongeau
Clap if. What does she say? Clap if they should die. Clap.
Unknown
Clap if they should suffer.
Tana Mongeau
Oh, fuck. I was close. Oh, you know what my first, like, random thought was today that I just like, genuinely want to know, like, when is the last time you spoke to Shane Dawson?
Jeffree Star
Oh, my God. I was like, I was expecting a way crazier question. I was waiting for like, I was like, what is Tana's very first question? That's a really good one.
Tana Mongeau
Well, this is the foreplay, you know, really fucking.
Jeffree Star
I mean, listen, right now I can't believe that the conspiracy palette is about to turn five years old this week.
Tana Mongeau
I just used it the other day.
Jeffree Star
And my hair looks like, so cool. Yes. So I don't know when this is coming out, but. Right. It's in the fall and it literally came out November 1st, and then five years just blinked. Right.
Tana Mongeau
Yeah.
Jeffree Star
Me and him, we were both canceled. Can't even remember why. That time the pandemic happened. He moved to Colorado, I moved to Wyoming. We both kind of left la. He lives here again. I'm never coming back.
Tana Mongeau
He lives here again.
Jeffree Star
Yeah.
Tana Mongeau
I did not know that. Yeah.
Jeffree Star
He's raised.
Tana Mongeau
Yeah.
Unknown
When he had his kids.
Jeffree Star
Yeah. So he became a father. I have continued to just be a makeup mogul and I have no plans to have any kids. Just more dogs and a couple more husbands and athletes. Yes. We're in la. I can't wait for this to be over so I can go get.
Tana Mongeau
Oh, my God. I'm like, stop. What are you doing?
Jeffree Star
Just kidding me?
Tana Mongeau
What are you fucking tonight?
Jeffree Star
Kidding. Meaning I don't want to leave here. I'll ask him how many Super bowl season. 1.
Tana Mongeau
Then we'll stop and that's how many rounds you'll go.
Jeffree Star
Yeah. If there's not a Super bowl ring on the hand, I can't get hard.
Tana Mongeau
You are.
Unknown
That's so inspirational.
Tana Mongeau
Somebody clip that, please.
Jeffree Star
But we haven't seen each other probably in like 10, 11 months. Yeah, we saw each other at my birthday last year. And then he became a father. He has twins.
Unknown
Wait, how old are they? Have you met the twins?
Jeffree Star
Not yet.
Tana Mongeau
That is so.
Jeffree Star
Cuz I thought he was gonna stay in Colorado and I was like, baby, I'm about to be, you know, great aunt Jeffrey Lynn. And then he moved to LA to raise the kids here and I haven't seen him in a couple months, so.
Unknown
I can't imagine coming back to LA to raise kids. I feel like you leave LA to raise kids.
Tana Mongeau
Yeah. It's nice. Leaving LA was the best thing you ever did. And you were so ahead of the wave. Everyone was so almost confused.
Unknown
And now Wyoming is a trend and it's like.
Jeffree Star
Yeah, they think it is. Oh, so Wyoming. I'm December. It's my four years of living there now. Just picture four years. Isn't that crazy?
Tana Mongeau
Stop. It's so crazy. You and the ax. I have so many questions.
Jeffree Star
LA, I was really burnt out. 20 years from. You know, I'm from Huntington Beach, California. I graduated high school at 17 and I moved here and I just figured it out. I worked at the Beverly center and I was an escort. I was a hooker. I've done. I've been a makeup artist for everybody. So it was crazy to finally leave and separate. But I think that all the drama with all the people and the crazy YouTube era was really, like, the final straw for me of, like, all this is so toxic. I really want to go be at peace, away from it all. I can work and come back whenever I want, but I don't want to be around any of that.
Tana Mongeau
Yeah, fuck the hair gummies.
Jeffree Star
Fuck it. All of it. It was all so crazy. And I think when the pandemic happened, remember that old lady Tati? Remember she uploaded a second video, which is now about to, you know, be five years old. And I.
Tana Mongeau
After. Bye, Sister. Bye Sister is such a diabolical title too. Like, imagine really typing that and hitting publish. It's a Bye.
Jeffree Star
It's a really wild journey, and I think a lot of people just know a lot of, like, half truths. And I think, you know, we lived it, so we really know the behind the scenes. And there was so many. There's so many things that people don't need to know that happened before. It's all. To me. I don't want to say it's irrelevant because so many people still talk about it. It's really wild.
Tana Mongeau
It was a cultural.
Jeffree Star
It was.
Unknown
I remember where I was.
Jeffree Star
It was like the YouTube era made on CNN. 50 million views on every. It was just. It was the craziest thing.
Tana Mongeau
You and everyone who loved it felt like it.
Jeffree Star
YouTube loved it. They loved pushing out toxicity. They loved making money off of everyone's misery. They did. The old CEO at the time really pandered to a lot of that evil energy in the dark.
Tana Mongeau
Susan.
Jeffree Star
Yeah. Rest in peace.
Unknown
Did she die?
Jeffree Star
She did, yeah. Probably from her James Charles Karma. But anyway. Yeah. So four.
Tana Mongeau
Subtract the two. Yeah.
Jeffree Star
And there's just a lot of things that people don't know that I had to really just suffer through behind the scenes. So it's crazy to be here where I am now.
Tana Mongeau
And. What.
Jeffree Star
It's very weird. I'm really mentally happy. And I moved to Wyoming. I went to therapy. I sought a lot of mental health, and I really worked on myself for years.
Tana Mongeau
So you're just gonna say I saw a lot.
Jeffree Star
So a lot of. A lot.
Tana Mongeau
The country boys.
Jeffree Star
Oh, my God. So Wyoming is the least populated state, really? Yeah. But it's the 10th biggest.
Tana Mongeau
And is that what drew you? Like, did you have any roots or history in Wyoming or What was the start where you were like property value? Have you money?
Jeffree Star
I think so. The, the rumor is that I moved there for taxes. Like, girl, I've lived in California for salt. Yeah. And Kanye. Remember that the girl that licked the toilet seat on Tick Tock made up the biggest rumor?
Tana Mongeau
Ava Louise.
Unknown
She's so good at that.
Jeffree Star
So, Ava, if you are watching this, thank you for that moment. That was really great that so many millions and millions of views, dollars, followers. That was really fun. You played it and still people believe it. I've met strangers and they're like, oh, yeah.
Tana Mongeau
Have you ever talked to Kanye about it? No, never. That's surprising.
Jeffree Star
Yeah, but we've just. It was such a bizarre rumor and I'm like. And I wish it was about someone hotter, you know, and someone that didn't have a wife and kids.
Tana Mongeau
Yeah, that's fair.
Jeffree Star
But Wyoming is peaceful. It's beautiful. Remember, I used to do music and I do music now. We just had a whole fucking reunion a couple weeks ago. It's crazy.
Tana Mongeau
So fun.
Jeffree Star
It was really fun. But I used to do music and I've traveled all over the country. Right. I've been to every single state. And I passed through Wyoming a bunch. We played there once. It was just so peaceful. And I had a plan. When I was older with gray hair and like 60 years old, I was going to live on a big old farm and just be by myself. And then the pandemic and all the drama made me realize I wanted to fast track that plan. That's really what it's about. It's not about money.
Tana Mongeau
Yeah.
Jeffree Star
I've paid so many tax dollars in this state. It's annoying that people would think that I would move to a different state to escape tax dollars.
Tana Mongeau
Girl, you have all the money in the world.
Jeffree Star
That's so silly.
Unknown
I didn't even think that's that offensive though.
Jeffree Star
I'm like, yeah, but I just hate when people always make good about financial. I think maybe because I'm.
Unknown
I don't think you needed really help in that department, to be honest.
Jeffree Star
No. And it's just I really did it for my mental health. So we're four years in. I mean, it works. Yeah. And I'm raising camels and Tibetan yaks. And it's just the craziest cool experience.
Tana Mongeau
What makes a great pair of glasses?
Unknown

Jeffree Star
So different. So let's say, like, we're here or I'm. We're in Vegas last week with the Crazy Warped Tour.
Tana Mongeau
Real text from Jeffrey. Vegas had me.
Jeffree Star
Yeah, that was so fun.
Unknown
She goes, you have to hear these voice memos. And that was the first one.
Tana Mongeau
It was like, every time I get.
Jeffree Star
A voice memo from you, like it.
Tana Mongeau
I feel like I should have to pay, like a $99 for it. Like, it's. It's not real.
Jeffree Star
So when I'm living this crazy life and I'm on the road or I'm doing podcasts, or I'm at the Crazy Warped Tour reunion, or I'm. Whatever I'm doing, I'm. I feel like I'm doing a job, but I'm still me. And then I go to Wyoming, I just take it all off and I'm in my cowboy boots, just staring at a mountain, a thousand acres to myself, and it's just like.
Tana Mongeau
So is it actually just you?
Jeffree Star
Yeah, that's cool. I have a ranch manager and I have a house manager that's, you know, there's someone that watches my dogs 24. 7. You know, when I'm not in town.
Unknown
How many do you have now?
Jeffree Star
Seven? Yeah.
Tana Mongeau
Is it still all the D names?
Jeffree Star
All D's? Yeah.
Tana Mongeau
What are they?
Jeffree Star
Well, rest in peace. My oldest passed away last year. 15 years old. Yeah. Diva. Oh, my God, that was so hard. So currently we have Drizzle, Donatella, Drama, Dessert, Dominatrix, and Da Vinci.
Unknown
Those are the best names I've ever heard.
Tana Mongeau
Da Vinci.
Jeffree Star
And I'm forgetting one. And I. I just can't believe forgetting.
Tana Mongeau
What's so funny?
Unknown
I get how that could happen.
Tana Mongeau
If I woke up tomorrow.
Jeffree Star
Oh, no, it's delicious. I'm not forgetting one. I was just had. I had to go through the colors of my delicious.
Tana Mongeau
If I woke up tomorrow as Jeffree star's Pomeranian, I wouldn't ask a single question. I would be like, bring me my caviar. Let's get it pushing.
Jeffree Star
I just love animals.
Tana Mongeau
So what's up with the camels? I didn't even know that. I'm sorry.
Jeffree Star
I started with yaks.
Tana Mongeau
Yes.
Jeffree Star
And I think a lot of people were upset when I moved to Wyoming, and I was like, hey, these are my cute little pets. And they are. But they do grow to be very massive. And I went from three yaks to like 10. And now I have 500 and 500 and. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Tana Mongeau
To 10 to 500.
Jeffree Star
The problem with my brain is it's.
Tana Mongeau
Giving $5 to 50 million.
Jeffree Star
And I. And I, for some reason, always make everything to a business. And I don't mean to. I just kind of make everything business oriented. So I.
Tana Mongeau
It's my favorite thing about.
Jeffree Star
So I was traveling in Colorado, the state right below it. Right. And this lady served us yak meat. Then I was like, okay, I've heard it. Yaks great. In China and Pakistan. Yak meat is. It's the healthiest red meat you can currently have in America. Right. I didn't know anything about it.
Tana Mongeau
What does it taste like?
Jeffree Star
It's like a sweeter beef. It's so yummy. It's not gamey at all. That's our biggest question.
Tana Mongeau
Yes.
Jeffree Star
And we sell jerky snack sticks like. Like crack on the TikTok shop. People are buying.
Unknown
Yeah, people are buying yak on TikTok shop.
Jeffree Star
Yeah, they are.
Tana Mongeau
The fact that, like, things. Imagine telling a Victorian child, like, I sell yak meat on TikTok with mascara.
Jeffree Star
So I created the concept A year ago of the Jeffree star store, makeup and meat. And we opened up a.
Tana Mongeau
My two favorite things. If I like. If I have to keep it a.
Jeffree Star
Buck, like, so if you want to try Jeffrey's meat, you can come to Casper. So our newly open location in Chatsworth. Right here.
Tana Mongeau
I need to come to Wyoming. You and I have been talking about that for, like, five years. I want to do a video where I just.
Jeffree Star
It's so fun.
Tana Mongeau
Live the fantasy. I would love to.
Jeffree Star
So I wanted to do, you know, as a makeup artist and someone that used to work in the malls as well. You always see women come in the store and their husbands or boyfriends immediately want to die. They're so bored. They don't know anything, and they don't care, and they're not interested. So they usually end up waiting around the store outside or just being on their phone cheating. That part. Oh, my phone just went off. So I decided to create that's somebody's husband settings is texting me. So I created the concept to sell my entire brand. The skincare, the makeup, and all the yak meat. So we sell frozen meat, we sell jerky. We sell snack sticks. We sell summer sausage. All of it.
Tana Mongeau
So Hickory farms is out of business.
Jeffree Star
There's taxidermy to look at. There's things to play with. So when the wives are getting mascara, the husbands can go try some jerky.
Tana Mongeau
That's so it's really cool.
Jeffree Star
And then I also have some of my car collection in there. It's like a Museum. It's 7,000 square feet.
Unknown
We have to. So I at least need to see it.
Jeffree Star
Yeah, it's really cool. It's in the heart of downtown. We have the best spot. So the husbands get to look at the cart collection, taste the jerky, and their wives can shop.
Unknown
And they want to come back.
Jeffree Star
They all have a good experience.
Tana Mongeau
That's so smart.
Jeffree Star
So the yak turned into pets, and they're still my pets. And I breed them for genetics. And just.
Tana Mongeau
If one sassy, we might make him a burger.
Jeffree Star
The mean ones go to the freezer. Don't you wish that was like the beauty community? Yes, I know. I know, but you. But we wouldn't. We wouldn't even want that meat.
Tana Mongeau
You were at all. You were cracking me the other day when you were. And I'm so. I do I. But I have to get messy. Jeffree Star is here. I don't give a. When you were coming at Michaela saying she had a teemu spray tan. I damn near passed out I needed air like and so because I'm teemu like spray tan. So coated. But like. Yeah, but.
Jeffree Star
But you look like a normal human skin tone. She like she looked her. I mean literally her spray tan.
Tana Mongeau
No, don't.
Unknown
Please don't show him that.
Jeffree Star
It looks like you stepped in oil though. Like a. Like a.
Tana Mongeau
Maybe you have like a good Jeffree star remover.
Jeffree Star
We do our makeup removing bomb. I think my problem is is what started it is that mascara gate.
Tana Mongeau
Right?
Jeffree Star
Yeah. That was a year ago.
Tana Mongeau
And I can understand because obviously we.
Jeffree Star
Should we get down and dirty about this because it's only happened a couple days ago.
Tana Mongeau
Yeah. I am down to talk about.
Jeffree Star
I haven't really.
Tana Mongeau
I can understand how that would piss you off though, in such a visceral way. As someone who has been. You are known for being genuinely honest about quality of product and not scamming your followers and no one else is. And like I know all of that.
Jeffree Star
I see these people main issue was. Is a year ago. Well, first of all, we all know that I stepped down like 10 years of doing beauty content. I basically quit YouTube. Right. I barely upload. Please come back was somewhere where I really found home. And I really think Dramageddon, whatever everyone wants to call it really was the final straw for me of like I really want to remove myself.
Tana Mongeau
When something makes you hate something, you love that part.
Jeffree Star
Yes. So when I went to TikTok, I wasn't fully immersed in it because remember during the pandemic I was like, nope, we're still full YouTube everyone.
Tana Mongeau
You don't want to let go of that too. Such a like.
Jeffree Star
But I also I felt as I was getting older, I didn't want to make content that I didn't enjoy. And people were just dancing all day. The dances Renegade and I have never done the walk like babe back then. I never did a dance. I never did a little skit. I never did choreography with anyone. And I just felt like, wow, this is where social media is at. I've been online for 20 plus years, like 10th grade till right in the second.
Tana Mongeau
Yeah.
Jeffree Star
And I was not inspired. I was so bored of the dancing. So as the app started to evolve into more beauty and more content and fun lip syncing stuff and quick beauty transitions. I was like, oh, who's on this space? And I had heard of her. Obviously. I know who she was. We had spoken before and I think it's the integrity of the app that people don't care about the integrity anymore. I think that's really to the Core of it, of what's shocking to me, the audience knows she's a liar, doesn't care, and they like watching the train wreck. And I'm sure she does have hardcore fans that do believe her and buy the stuff that she's saying is great.
Tana Mongeau
Yeah. Would have never slid back in the day. Like, remember when Jacqueline Hill had hair in her lipstick and people were like.
Jeffree Star
They wanted her to die.
Tana Mongeau
Yes.
Jeffree Star
They literally wanted to cancel her forever. So it's crazy.
Tana Mongeau
And now it's like everyone can do anything.
Jeffree Star
Yes. So when the mascara thing happened, it inspired me to get back to full time reviewing and I've never let up since that video.
Tana Mongeau
And I.
Jeffree Star
And I've just been inspired ever since. And I love TikTok. I like that I can film it myself. Remember Christian, my video guy? We love him. So we still. We're about to see him this week, finally. But I don't have a videographer anymore. I don't film YouTube videos that need to be edited for hours. You know, I film a review and I move on and I.
Tana Mongeau
No one will ever review product like you. Yeah.
Unknown
Because I feel like you're unbiased probably because very. I feel like you're not money motivated because you've got it. I feel like, like the beauty community especially, like you make so much more money and makeup videos than any other.
Jeffree Star
And Michaela, obviously, I don't know her exact dollar amount, but I know the brand deals I was getting and I know what it's worth now and it's astronomical. And if the typical viewer knew how much money she was making off of telling the truth or lying, they would really throw up in their mouth.
Tana Mongeau
Yeah.
Jeffree Star
So I was very offended by the lack of integrity and the not acknowledging it. I really think that her and L'Oreal had a deal or whether she lied or. I mean, we all know she lied. She put on a false lash Ardell whisper, but she never acknowledged it. And I think L'Oreal got a really great viral moment and they were thankful for it. Whether it was staged or not, we'll never know. I've asked her in a DM to respond to me of how it happened. She refused to respond to that. Looking back a year later, the mascara is great. She didn't need to lie and she didn't need to put on the falsie. And whether it was a marketing scheme or she actually got caught in a lie, we'll never know because she won't acknowledge it. So the other day. So I do live stream on tick Tock. Now let's talk about that. Because I've been scrolling a lot and I see a lot of people hating on other creators me.
Tana Mongeau
So I just have. I got to put this out on the record.
Jeffree Star
Let's hear it. Come on.
Unknown
Apologize.
Tana Mongeau
Well, here's what I'm going to say. Okay. I. It is. And I stand on this. Seeing Jason Ash panhandle was maybe one of the highlights of my year. Hilarious. The trajectory of the. You know, cheers to the fall of the Dobrik alumni. Right.
Jeffree Star
It is wild as a viewer to see someone that was so far up David's ass just sit on TikTok in their kitchen.
Tana Mongeau
Yes. And you know, obviously like hi. And it's just. It's all insane. And I stand on that. And I see. I just see so many people who have like flight now resorting to that.
Jeffree Star
Yeah.
Tana Mongeau
But then I opened my fucking for you page and there's Ms. Jeffrey Lynn in a battle with four people in Middle America.
Jeffree Star
Yep.
Tana Mongeau
So clearly there's something we're missing. And I need cuz now I'm like did I up. Did I go too far against this? Because you're doing it if you're doing it.
Unknown
Some people are.
Tana Mongeau
Am I missing out on a business opportunity? Like suddenly I want a galaxy.
Jeffree Star
So you. That's only $10.
Tana Mongeau
But have you seen me? I've been tipping you. It's my new bit.
Jeffree Star
It's. I've been going in Jeffrey R. So let's deep dive into it real fast.
Tana Mongeau
Yes.
Jeffree Star
Why do you think before I answer any questions about me. Why do you think people are so triggered by Jason and make a joke of it? I feel neither way. I think it's funny. There's no. It doesn't matter. There's 60 year olds that cook on livestream and they're making a lot of money, I think.
Tana Mongeau
And that feels wholesome to me. That's no longer funny.
Jeffree Star
But I'm going to answer a question. Even though I asked her the question, I'm going to answer it. So fucked up. Only child and Scorpio.
Tana Mongeau
No, I love it. I love it.
Jeffree Star
And 80% sociopath.
Tana Mongeau
And save me from answering like I love 80%.
Jeffree Star
80%. Yeah.
Tana Mongeau
I'm like 20, 30, 40.
Jeffree Star
So the problem is he doesn't do anything.
Tana Mongeau
Yeah.
Unknown
That's what I was gonna say. If you're cooking, it's one thing.
Tana Mongeau
You're begging children to swipe their parents cards and they are children and all of the things that he's done wrong over the years.
Jeffree Star
You legally have to be 18 or up to gift. You do whether. Yes.
Unknown
Can they tell though?
Jeffree Star
No.
Unknown
Well, I've been 18 since like 11 on like MySpace.
Jeffree Star
I can't breathe. But I think the problem is I, I am an Internet dinosaur. So my logic, because people are, you know, majority people, get it. Because I am an e commerce store. So my TikTok page, minus all the fun lip syncs and makeup reviews, I am a e commerce store. Right. So when I go live, a lot of the times I am selling products for hours. QVC is what our parents used to watch when we were little kids. They turn it on. There are some old ladies showing off a diamond bracelet. 79.99.
Tana Mongeau
Absolutely diamond.
Jeffree Star
Or the face cream and the Mar k and all that. So now it's Tick tock. And if anyone's making fun of me, they're a fucking fool. Because this is the future of beauty, 100%. So we'll get into the battling and what else the app has to offer. Yes. But I, at the core of what I do, if people don't know, because there's new people that are gonna watch that maybe don't know who I am, Tick tock is I was trying to be modest, but like, it's really. People are there. There's, I mean, 3 million people go live a day and there's millions and millions of people. Yeah. Whether they have one viewer or 10,000, that app is booming and they make so much money off these creators. But we are a store. So when I'm live selling, whether I'm with a co host or I'm by myself, I mean, people are ordering. I give really crazy discounts that you're never going to see on my site.
Unknown
I was in there last night.
Jeffree Star
Instagram.
Unknown
He's handing out free palettes.
Jeffree Star
Yes. Buy a palette, get a palette free. And it's only for that five hour moment. One time a week. You got to fucking be there or you're not going to get it. And there's a lot of people that don't even watch my TikToks don't know we do deals. So it's a niche market, but it's massive. The money is there. It's huge. We sell products. We are the number one or two beauty store this week. Number one again on the number one app in the world. I'm fucking so proud of it.
Tana Mongeau
At the end of the day, you make the best makeup.
Jeffree Star
So then let's, let's, let's switch to. I'm also an Internet character. I've been around For a long time. I want to learn everything. Just like the YouTube and the beauty world. I fucking immersed myself and I took that bitch over. So I'm like, okay, what are the daily ranks? What are people doing? People will do a six hour face paint on TikTok. They'll battle for 12 hours. I have a friend.
Tana Mongeau
What is a battle? Should have asked that before. I. Yeah, I don't know.
Unknown
I completely understand.
Jeffree Star
So, yes. So I live for you.
Tana Mongeau
So uninvoiced.
Jeffree Star
So when people. I don't get called a panhandler because I'm a real business and I show people how to make money on the app and it's really great. You can really make a really good income. Right. My friend's mom cooks.
Unknown
Oh, shit.
Jeffree Star
And she makes money just cooking instead of working, you know, as an insurance agent. She now makes way more money. Five times the amount per month. People are watching her cook and gifting and engaging with her and her chat really loves her and people really engage and they come view you every day. I probably go live four or five times a week. People look forward to it. It's entertaining. What do I do on live? I'll make bacon in the morning and make 50,000. I mean, you're so fucking.
Tana Mongeau
There's money there. Yes, $50,000. $50,000 alive.
Unknown
Well, so.
Jeffree Star
So that's why I'm going to say whether people want to say I'm a. Well, I don't get called a panhandler. I think that the.
Tana Mongeau
You're not giving.
Unknown
I think if we were to do it, we might be panhandling because we don't have a business that like, we're not driving people to buy from our business the way that he is. You know what I mean? So it's like if we were to do it, we're not making $50,000.
Tana Mongeau
Well, are you making that in sales or in gifting?
Jeffree Star
Both. Oh, it depends. So there's sometimes where. I don't know. No, no. There's some times where I don't sell it all and I'll just make bacon in my kitchen, in my bathrobe, in my little slippers. Mink, Louie.
Tana Mongeau
And I was waiting for it. I was. I knew it was going.
Jeffree Star
We'll just hang out and I'll just chat and I'll do a Q and A and I'll just talk about my Vegas trip and what I did and. And people will gift and support. But I'm also known as one of the biggest gifters on the app. So if you deep dive and open up the live. Everyone has a gift or badge number by their name. So I'm not. We all know I give back. And I've been giving back since the day I was blessed to ever have a dollar, right? So I support small creators. I'll go in and I'll drop $5,000 on someone that's sleeping in their car on live. And like, I love to give back, right? Always. So the battling world is really interesting. So what I'm getting is I can cook bacon. I can do a. So I also do my makeup reviews live. So all the. All the tick tocks you see, I.
Tana Mongeau
Film those brands, I just know they're shaking.
Jeffree Star
Oh, they do. I tag them every time. They sit there. Yes. No, they do. Yes. Yeah, yeah, they sit there. I was reviewing rare beauty last month. Selena Gomez came in the chat and she sent me her first ever gifts. I was like, it was sickening. Yeah, it was sick. Yes.
Tana Mongeau
She's slamming the credit card like, please love my blood.
Jeffree Star
So what I do now is YouTube days, right? I would go film for a couple hours. Christian would have to drive home, edit it, show me a Preview, upload the YouTube video, do the thumbnail, do the description. Girl. We're in a different fucking time now. No one's attention spans are like that, right? So I just filmed a video and I'll do it live. So I'm live streaming on the iPad, filming it on my phone and I'll just be like trying new rare beauty powder, girl. They're all glued to the screen, like, oh my God, is he going to hate it?
Tana Mongeau
Yeah.
Jeffree Star
And it's really engaging and people gift while I'm sitting there. And I've made myself a part of the daily ranks now. Me and soldier boy are the only celebrities on there. And he makes a killing, killing it. Making money like this, Lynn. Yeah.
Tana Mongeau
Oh, I'm gonna be live on.
Jeffree Star
So fun. But you have the personality. A lot of people make no money and they sit there all day and they just kind of don't do anything. And they have like 10 viewers and I just.
Unknown
Me.
Jeffree Star
I clicked that. But you have to be in the mood, like you're entertaining. And it' you know, one of my friends, she makes, you know, six figures a month and that's her entire job is battling and being a makeup artist. So the. So TikTok created battles where you could join the screen with 1v1 or 2v2, like me and you versus two other people. I'm sure you've seen the clips of Jason with on A four way or one versus one. And essentially, and this is where a lot of people. It's a. It's not controversial to me at all, but to normal folks, you know, controversial. It is controversial that two people are sitting on a screen and strangers are throwing money at them. And whoever makes the most money that battle, you obviously both get the money. But whoever gets the most points, which essentially is dollars, you win that match. Oh, TikTok has made a human video game. They are geniuses.
Tana Mongeau
Yeah.
Jeffree Star
America is so threatened, they want to try to remove this app because it's whatever they saying it is. It's like, no.
Tana Mongeau
Do you think I would die?
Jeffree Star
I don't know. That's the scary part. I really don't know. We're in a very scary time, right?
Tana Mongeau
Oh, my God, the lights would go off.
Jeffree Star
I would kill the world's fuck.
Unknown
I would just be stupid. I feel like everything that I know today is because of TikTok. Like I'm learning so much and.
Jeffree Star
And I think the government may not want us to learn all those.
Unknown
Making everybody.
Jeffree Star
You can type it in. Here's a. Want to get really fucking wacky. People don't like this at all. All you got to do is search. Have we ever been to the moon? Why is that such a hot topic? Yeah, of course we fucking haven't.
Tana Mongeau
I know. I agree. I don't think we've ever been to the moon. Can I say that?
Jeffree Star
Of course you can. Anyone with common sense could tell.
Tana Mongeau
I don't think we've ever been to the moon. Who the fuck was I can fighting?
Jeffree Star
So here we go. So that we have to stray away from that because we'll go down that hallway too long. But the problem is, is to America, it's not a problem. It's education. And you can now go in and see old clips that old people are finding and they're uploading to the app and old footage of things from the seven and you can really learn and see. Oh, wow. Like, this is all.
Tana Mongeau
And people don't want that. And they don't even this Menendez brother should I think if it wasn't for Tick Tock.
Jeffree Star
But same with Free Britney. Tick Tock and Twitter got that.
Tana Mongeau
Gypsy Rose Blanchard it is.
Jeffree Star
Gypsy Rose went live with me until now.
Unknown
Did she battle you?
Jeffree Star
No, we just had a good conversation. People kept being like, she wants to collab. And I'm like, jeffree Star Cosmetics is not collabing with a murderer. We're not. We're not doing it this year.
Tana Mongeau
I need to. I need, like a list of iconic things you say on today's episode. And that's one. I want her on Canceled regardless, so bad.
Jeffree Star
So.
Tana Mongeau
But I need to. I like, do.
Jeffree Star
So here's my issue. I'm very sarcastic and I battle and I'm live all the time. I say really crazy, funny jokes. I should have been a comedian, right? So we go. So we go live together. We have. We have a good time. I'm not gonna collab with her. She's like. I don't know if she's hinting at it, but like. And she's also learning TikTok. And imagine you're in prison for so long and the phone is so new.
Tana Mongeau
Oh my God.
Jeffree Star
It's like, it must be such a trick.
Unknown
Imagine what that even feels like.
Tana Mongeau
Yes.
Jeffree Star
So my issue is, is that she thought I was all great, and then a couple weeks later, someone sends her a clip of a joke I made. Unfollow. She can't handle the humor.
Unknown
Aw, boring.
Tana Mongeau
Yeah, I was talking to her on FaceTime and I was like, slay mother. And I was like, wait.

But Also, like the YouTube drama era, the lie is always more entertaining than the truth. Why?
Tana Mongeau
That's all of the media.
Jeffree Star
You want to really switch and be bipolar. Why did her second video hit so hard?
Tana Mongeau
I loved this. I loved this transition. We went Straight from.
Jeffree Star
I want to ask you. Why did you woman to man when she. Yes, I want to know. I've never asked anyone this question. Because you're making Tati West. Yes. You're making me reflect on a lot.
Tana Mongeau
What was the title of the second video? Before I speak on.
Unknown
In the second video, she's blaming me and Shane. Shane for influencing her to make.
Jeffree Star
Here's the thing, just for the record, I don't feel like I need to prove myself to anyone ever. But I don't think or talk about these things often. So when I do, a lot of memories flood in. I've put a lot of this behind me. I don't think about it. It was a very dark time. My question is all. And I've never got to ask anyone this, even as a fan or a viewer, because we're both viewers of what all happened, even though we're. I was a part of it. Why do you think her second video hit? Did they just want me and Shane to be the villain for the hundredth time?
Tana Mongeau
I think people, even just the viewers watching the fans of Dramageddon happening, were enamored by the idea of all of YouTube's hierarchy being even. I don't want to compare it to anything that's like happening right now in the media with, like the Diddy stuff. But people are glued to the idea of the takedown of a hierarchy of anything like all the Kardashians, everyone that's going to be taken down with Diddy. People. People love to see that.
Jeffree Star
I was never there. By the way, I like straight rappers. I was never there. I was never there. No bunch of fucking.
Tana Mongeau
Honestly. Good spot. To clarify, I was gonna ask you that.
Jeffree Star
I think what was bizarre is me and Shane and I've never even said this on camera before. We were busy filming the conspiracy documentary we were filming for 10, 11 months. How to create a product. Our lives, all the newness of my life, my love life, my dogs, my channel, my exponential growth of my channel. The fact that anyone believed that we were bored to try to ruin someone's life on the side. When we're living our dreams, our financial dreams are. I mean, the viewers were so crazy. It was the biggest, most exciting thing me and him have ever done career wise and the most successful. I couldn't believe I woke up and people believed I'm the villain for the hundredth time. I couldn't believe it.
Unknown
But I think there was like a convenience and like you guys being so powerful at that time. And like, of course, on you Guys.
Jeffree Star
That'S why I wanted to ask you. Let me. Let me be quiet. So what do you think?
Tana Mongeau
She was always threatened as well. Like, even just with the sugar bear hair, like, all of that. Like, James, my gummy this. It felt like she was insecure in her spot.
Unknown
I was gonna say I thought that to be strange. Like, I think about it now and, like, if I had, like, a hat brand and then Tana stepped out and, like, a different hat brand because they're sending her to Coachella. Be like, slay.
Tana Mongeau
Yeah, who gives?
Unknown
Like, I don't. I didn't understand, like, why it was such a serious thing. I guess, like, people are different. But.
Tana Mongeau
No, but it's serious that you hold.
Unknown
A grudge that makes you make a bye sister video. I was, like, rooted in insecure.
Jeffree Star
There was a lot more to it.
Tana Mongeau
I think you also just think she was dumb and just straight up did not know how damaging it was. Maybe the first video and then was manic.
Jeffree Star
And I think she's one of the worst people I've ever met. So I'm not trying to say anything for her.
Tana Mongeau
I don't know if I've ever met her.
Jeffree Star
But it was more than the gummies. I think when you're telling a stranger, if you were to tell a stranger the story, the gummies seemed to be, like, people's catalyst of, like, this was.
Tana Mongeau
The root, when in reality, it was very anecdotal.
Jeffree Star
It was way more than that. And we were all spending a lot of time together. We learned a lot of things about a lot of things. Yeah. And me and Tati traveled to James, and we really saw.
Tana Mongeau
I did it at my birthday dinner.
Jeffree Star
Yes.
Tana Mongeau
Were you at the birthday dinner?
Jeffree Star
Yeah, I was sat right next to him. I was here. James was there.
Tana Mongeau
What? What?
Jeffree Star
And it's funny. It's a crazy meme of this because of her. No one ever heard my version. They just hear. They saw Tati's video, the birthday dinner.
Tana Mongeau
What actually happened at the birthday. Birthday.
Jeffree Star
It was the height of. It was her birthday, so it was like her friends and family and a lot of normal people. Not YouTubers, not people with a lot of money. And to me, it was that height of James's new fame, new money, going batshit crazy and not knowing how to handle it all. And it turned him. And it turned him into a monster, or he already was that. And the money amplified it, and he really thought, I have money. You're gonna sleep with me. It was very disgusting. Doesn't matter who you were. You want him you hear that creek? That's.
Unknown
Loud.
Jeffree Star
And.
Tana Mongeau
And that's.
Jeffree Star
It had been so often weeks of buildup of the ego getting so dark and crazy and just so many weird things and stories coming out to us and really bizarre things. And the dinner was him at his most disgusting. And there was a 19 year old waiter who he tricked into his room later that night. And the guy said he wanted to leave. And James is like, I. I paid for this. Yeah, you have to hook up with me. I bought the room. But everyone just makes it about sucking and the memes and her stupid ass video. But it was really as someone that was there and I'm all about shock value. I'm crazy. It was just disgusting to witness because.
Tana Mongeau
It'S one thing to say something family there.
Jeffree Star
And we all know we're shocking and we can say whatever we want, but when you're at that environment, you don't say crazy. It was all just too much and it just bubbled up crazy. And we all flew home just horrified by this person. Disgusted. And I think she really felt like in her heart that exposing him as a alleged predator and all these things was going to teach him a lesson and remove him from the platform. It really wasn't about gummies. I. I think that was the start of it because to me, the gummies was loyalty.
Tana Mongeau
Yeah.
Unknown
Expect.
Jeffree Star
I'm gonna speak for her stupid ass talk to you. I'm gonna say, let me say, Let me say one thing for you before you die, you old witch.
Tana Mongeau
I just wish more people would come on Canceled.
Jeffree Star
She is one of the darkest people. One of the darkest people I've ever met.
Tana Mongeau
Really. I don't think I've ever met her.
Unknown
So got me with the, like the guys of being like, you know, this like a sweet older woman, middle aged. Yeah.
Tana Mongeau
Yeah.
Jeffree Star
I'm only being funny because people will say I'm age shaming. We're. We're really close in age. We're not. I'm not. No. Her aesthetic was the mother of YouTube and why would she be a part of any drama? And because she found out a lot of stuff about him. She knew he was evil and she wanted to remove him.
Tana Mongeau
But I.
Jeffree Star
But the gummies was about loyalty. So I think back then it was bizarre because we all kind of had each other's backs. We were all promoting each other. We all. But it was organic. It wasn't like. It was just like, we all know she's gonna come out with a beauty line. I'm gonna be the first one to let y'all know it's fucking amazing if it is. And I just think that it was bizarre for him to take a quick check when he was raking in so much money to promote something when he's did her makeup at the wedding. So it was bizarre to switch up and not promote her products. I did think it was interesting.
Unknown
Okay.
Tana Mongeau
Yeah.
Jeffree Star
Because they were.
Tana Mongeau
They were deep and we're different. Like, it's like, I guess they're in.
Jeffree Star
Hawaii and he's doing her makeup at the wedding. Like, she deeply immersed herself with this kid and then found out later on. Wow. I think he's evil, Chucky.
Unknown
So, yeah, I get. I guess I get, like, why she'd be her. I don't know. I experienced it, like, firsthand as a, like, completely removed, like, bystander. I was a. I. Every single video, I was like, okay, wait, maybe I believe this person. Like, now I believe.
Tana Mongeau
And that's what it ended up becoming. Is this just cluster no one knew spider web of.
Jeffree Star
And we're over here. Like, we just launched the biggest makeup collection in makeup history. The most palette sold in one hour, in one day. Me and Shane Dawson. What two dudes? Like, that's so crazy and beautiful. On the documentary in the second one. Right. Both of them were such massive hits. And I couldn't believe. We're in the middle of a pandemic and it's all these crazy things happening with our culture and the planet and earth and the presidency and everyone's angry. They wanted me and Shane to be the villain.
Unknown
Do you think it hurt? It hurt your, like, launch, or do you think it helped it?
Jeffree Star
The launch had already happened.
Unknown
It had already happened.
Jeffree Star
Yeah. So this is so November 19th.
Tana Mongeau
Do you believe. And then, like, too close to the sun. Like, do you believe that when people fly too close to the sun? Like, you know what I mean?
Jeffree Star
Like, what, we got too successful.
Tana Mongeau
Yeah. Do you just believe in that, like, Karmatic. Like, you know what I mean?
Jeffree Star
With me and Shane, specifically, from the dawn of Tumblr to MySpace to this very moment, this has been our careers for some reason. Right.
Tana Mongeau
And I feel that on a smaller ways. Yeah.
Jeffree Star
So I feel the same. And it's the roller coaster of she's the villain. They're awful. They're this. Never mind. They're great. We were wrong. And it's just been over and over.
Tana Mongeau
And I feel like it's so crazy mentally. Like, I. I see why you would go to Wyoming for your mental health, because even I. I struggle with that so heavily.
Jeffree Star
Couldn't wake up her anymore.
Tana Mongeau
Trying to find a way to be calm while on that roller coaster. I always use that analogy. Like, I've learned how to, like, fall asleep on a roller coaster, like, emotionally.
Jeffree Star
Like, we were used to it. We woke up every day not knowing what was going to happen. That fear of, like, what's going to happen today? It was awful. So I just couldn't believe that we woke up and people believed it. It was. It was crazy to me. And then it all just got so big. And it's on the news and it's on cnn and it's everywhere.
Tana Mongeau
I'm like, I guess Shane's cancellation. He ended up having another one later. Right.
Jeffree Star
And, like, the cat stuff, Our situations were so different.
Tana Mongeau
Do you hate that he left the Internet, though? Do you hate. Like. Like some people would argue that it defeated him. Do you wish it. Do you know what I mean?
Jeffree Star
Do you wish he and I. I partially agree. I took a few weeks off and was like, wait, what did I do? Yeah, I'm not a bad person. I didn't try to take down James Charles. I haven't talked to Tati in months. He weaseled his way back in, got her to make a video about us to try to get back at us.
Tana Mongeau
Oh, you think he was behind video two?
Jeffree Star
Yeah, that's what she's told people. Yeah. That he manipulated her. It's also. It's. These people are so twisted.
Tana Mongeau
But your memory is so great, and.
Jeffree Star
I wasn't a part of any of it. That's the problem.
Unknown
But you got dragged.
Jeffree Star
So you're. So now we're five years later, you're telling me that me and Shane called her on the phone and coerced her into me? This has to be a joke. That's what I'm like. How could anyone believe that was real?
Tana Mongeau
Would you ever.
Jeffree Star
I'm over here, like, living my rockstar dreams where I'm opening up Morphe stores around the world. There's 30,000 people coming to these malls while I'm doing the ribbon cut. I don't give a. About anyone but my empire. Everything's growing. We have. I mean, it was all so beautiful, and I couldn't believe they wanted to ruin it all. Because we got so successful, the two underdogs became the biggest. We went to Walmart. 50 million views. It was untouchable. And they were so mad that the two won. It's so crazy. It's crazy. Yeah. And yes. So to answer your question, I am upset that Shane disappeared for over a year. He. He I don't know. He couldn't handle it mentally. I don't know. I'm not. I don't want to speak for him, obviously. Obviously.
Tana Mongeau
I would love to get him on this.
Jeffree Star
He's a really great speaker. Have you, have you invited him here?
Tana Mongeau
I've like hinted at it. I. I think I'm gonna cold open, ask him again. Maybe I'll be like, hey, Jeffrey, I.
Unknown
Feel like you're gonna be helpful.
Jeffree Star
Like people just facetime him when this is over and. But it would have. Yeah, it's. If he. But I don't think he wants to talk about any of this.
Tana Mongeau
Yeah, that's true. And I understand.
Jeffree Star
I think maybe. Yeah.
Tana Mongeau
It's just there will never the good stuff and the bad stuff. I think that the way that the Internet is now. Tick tock. The short form content. There will never be a time like that again where singular YouTube videos are like.
Jeffree Star
I think. Why do you think people are so obsessed with all of our old clips? Even the ones with the alleged.
Tana Mongeau
Yeah, with James, that Jack in the Box video. It's so funny because I want to go back and re watch that video.
Jeffree Star
They were really good, great times.
Unknown
I love that video.
Tana Mongeau
I don't remember that night. I remember you putting the Gucci shirt on all. So like, do you like what was our vibe? Because I was reading comments the other day of people saying the tension's kind of palpable. Right. Like between all of us. I like, I just don't remember that night. But I always see clips.
Jeffree Star
We saw each other as mutuals and he wanted to be the star of the show and he was younger and this is all so new to him and we were just there to fucking laugh and be wild and silly. And that's why we always had the best chemistry on camera.
Unknown
Do you think that. Well, I was gonna ask a stupid question. I was gonna say, do you think his age has anything to do with it? Like coming into success so quickly? But you did the same thing. You were really young when you.
Jeffree Star
But everyone handles it differently and I think the ego is his worst enemy. And I don't want to sit here and harp about this fucking idiot.
Tana Mongeau
I suck my own. But I do think my leading emotion genuinely from my career from the day it started to now has always been gratitude. And I was going to say that.
Unknown
I feel like you didn't. You like, didn't feel any sense of like, entitlement when everything was given to you because you had had nothing.
Jeffree Star
And I was always very humbled and it saved Me. But a lot of times you didn't.
Unknown
Feel like you deserved everything that you got.
Tana Mongeau
Yeah, it saved my life. I was like, how the fuck did this anomaly happen to me and get me out of this? Like, he grew up with loving parents and money and.
Jeffree Star
Yeah.
Tana Mongeau
You know what I mean? It's. It's very different when, yeah, I feel.
Unknown
Like somebody like that, like, kind of just feels like deserving when. When they find the success that they, like, wanted 50% or more times when somebody becomes super successful.
Jeffree Star
The city's evil.
Unknown
Yeah.

Seattle, Washington all right, we are back at it with David. We've talked about it before, but honestly, once you've had David, it is hard to stop. But it's not for everyone. David is huge if your hands are small. No, but seriously, if you missed that episode, here's the scoop. David has 28 grams of protein, 0 grams of sugar, and is only 150 calories. If you're looking for a sugary dessert disguised as protein, David is not it. But if you're looking for something that actually fuels your muscles without making you crash, David is a pretty good bet. No gimmicks. It's just a solid protein bar that works. It is the least calories for the most protein that you will ever find in a bar. You guys, like I told you, I had these so often on tour and I actually love them so much. Seriously, contrary to what some people think, protein alone does not make you bulk up. You also don't need a workout to feel the benefits of more protein in your everyday life. Protein makes you feel more full, which helps you consume fewer calories throughout the day, contributing to fat loss. My go to is the cookie dough flavor. So if you're curious, try it for yourself@davidprotein.com youm'll get why we're still talking about it, guys.
Tana Mongeau
It's the only David I'll put in my mouth. How do you feel now walking around la?
Jeffree Star
Uninspired.
Tana Mongeau
Yeah, I agree.
Jeffree Star
I used to just hit Sunset Boulevard and just be like, wow. And it was all like. It was just so many hopes and dreams here. And the city used to be so.
Tana Mongeau
Beautiful and so fun, Genuinely fun and.
Unknown
Cool to be a part of.
Jeffree Star
That's a Big question.
Tana Mongeau
It's a great question.
Jeffree Star
Yeah, it's a really great question.
Tana Mongeau
Thank you.
Jeffree Star
For some reason, it was like the 2020. Like 20. 2012. 2012. Yeah. That. I don't know. Remember when, like, everyone just stopped being funny? That's when the cancel culture really started to creep in and no one was allowed to say jokes anymore.
Tana Mongeau
And phones just like I.
Jeffree Star
And the phones blew up.
Tana Mongeau
Everyone had way more. Out in LA with Paris Hilton in a flip phone. Good God. Like, best.
Jeffree Star
Yeah, Me and Paris Hilton and Kelly Osborne at the Spider Club. And we have our T mobile sidekicks.
Unknown
I miss my little.
Jeffree Star
And it was just such a different time. It was so cool.
Tana Mongeau
I genuinely think that I should have been in that time.
Jeffree Star
It was epic. And I was really young, so that's what I was. I was her age back then. I was 19 years old. Doing Kelly Osborne's makeup and going to all the clubs with the fake ID and the pink mohawk and just like. Like, it was all so new and.
Unknown
Crazy about how lucky you were to experience it because so many people now, like, that's what you come to LA for. And it's just not here.
Jeffree Star
It's not there.
Tana Mongeau
I remember the last time you and I went out, we went to Bootsy Bellows. This is probably like three or four years ago. And you and I were having a night like it was 2012.
Jeffree Star
Yeah.
Tana Mongeau
And I remember you and I just looking at each other and looking around and you were like this. Like this used to be, you know.
Jeffree Star
Like it used to be so fun.
Tana Mongeau
Yeah.
Jeffree Star
And I just. I don't know, it's just weird. So. It's weird that Tick Tock is here and I. And all those old people that we've been talking about, we've had each other blocked forever. So are they running Tick Tock? I heard Tati's trying to do live stream. It's flopping.
Tana Mongeau
I don't.
Unknown
I've never seen it.
Tana Mongeau
Yeah.
Jeffree Star
And James. And James has a makeup line now, 100 years later. Oh, I guess. I guess only because I'm the queen of reviewing and so many people.
Tana Mongeau
Have you reviewed painted?
Jeffree Star
I can't review.
Unknown
It would be so viral.
Jeffree Star
I really. Yes, it would. But at the end of the day, it's a Patrick TA rip off. There's nothing new or inspiring about it. The packaging of his blushes are identical to Patrick T and Tom Ford O. It's boring. It's really uninspiring from what I've seen.
Tana Mongeau
Who does inspire you?
Jeffree Star
Oh.
Tana Mongeau
Whose makeup lines? Tell me what you. What's Jeffree star approved. What's getting you going?
Jeffree Star
My favorite thing is, I love that whether it's celebrity or fashion, makeup artists have makeup lines. Pat McGrath, number one. Amazing, right? I used to be little kid opening up magazines to shoot, and she. All her makeups were there. Interview magazine, the full rainbow eye. And I'm like, oh, my God. So people like her. Patrick Ta make it by Mario. I love that artists get to have their own brands now versus all these dumb celebrities. Everyone around the corner, listen, it's worked for Gaga. She's genuine, right? Selena Gomez, huge hit. Some of these people. JLo Skincare Line.
Unknown
What's her heart?
Tana Mongeau
Jayla has a skin.
Jeffree Star
I don't think anyone's bought it but her assistant. No one knows about it. Selena Williams.
Tana Mongeau
Serena Williams.
Jeffree Star
Serena.
Tana Mongeau
I gotta go. Me correcting you is also just as if.
Jeffree Star
Selena Gomez. No, no. Serena Williams launched a line in Ulta. A makeup line. None of y'all have tried it or heard of it, have you?
Tana Mongeau
It's like tennis ball packaging. Like what?
Jeffree Star
All hot green.
Tana Mongeau
Is it like tennis? Okay.
Unknown
She's committed to her.
Jeffree Star
But did you know it existed?
Unknown
No.
Jeffree Star
Exactly. But you're a consumer. Even though we get our makeup done, I'm still a consumer, and I do my own makeup all the time still. And I love buying products. I'm not on all the PR lists like the other girls. I'm on half.
Unknown
Do you think you just get marked off every time you say something bad about.
Jeffree Star
No, no, no, no. There's brands that. They love the critiques, and they can handle it. And there's a core. There's core people like ELF and Patrick Ta and people that. They're not afraid of the pretend controversy of. Oh, whatever. They just. They want to know my opinions.
Tana Mongeau
Yeah, that's true. I think you're a. You have a makeup brand you don't want. Jeffree Star. Honestly.
Jeffree Star
Hello.
Unknown
Do you find it hard ever to, like, be innovative after everybody's done everything? It feels like.
Jeffree Star
I think my approach to things are always so different that it's always fun. So for the very. So we're about to turn 10 years old and on Black Friday. Not crazy. 10 years of JSC. Yeah, that's. It's wild. I know.
Unknown
Are you gonna do something special for your 10 years?
Jeffree Star
Yeah. You coming to the party?
Unknown
Absolutely.
Jeffree Star
It's in la, so you guys.
Tana Mongeau
Oh, and I'll come these bitches up. You know, I love it.
Jeffree Star
That part.
Tana Mongeau
I love it.
Jeffree Star
I think my approach makes things really fun. I've never put out Eyebrow products. Right. So I grew my eyebrows back. It's been two years. Now we have eyebrow. Thank you. This is my natural eyebrows.
Tana Mongeau
They look great.
Jeffree Star
The whole time she knew me, I've had him shave since 10th grade. So we have eyebrow products next year. So it's like, well, how can you make an eyebrow pencil new? New shape, different packaging, different formulas. So, like, I love it. I'm. I feel like I started the brand yesterday, and we're 10 years in, and I'm just like a little kid. I'm just like Willy Wonka.
Tana Mongeau
That's so fun.
Jeffree Star
I love it. I get really giddy. I love formulating. I love flying to the labs.
Unknown
That's the thing that helps is just being, like, actually so handsome with your.
Tana Mongeau
Personality is so prevalent in your brain. Even just because I told you. I opened my conspiracy palette the other day and I was dying.
Jeffree Star
It's such a good palette.
Tana Mongeau
You gave me a shade. Crying on the couch. Couch. It's the same color as the couch. I cried.
Jeffree Star
Yeah.
Tana Mongeau
To Shane Dawson on. So I was crying about Tanacon. To Shane Dawson on this tan couch. And they made an eyeshadow that was the same color as the couch. Was Hunter's couch.
Jeffree Star
Yes.
Tana Mongeau
I opened that the other day, and I was like. And it's a great crease color. Talk about blending with. Crying on your.
Jeffree Star
Talk about wearability, honey. And then popping Trisha on the list.
Tana Mongeau
So you and Trisha.
Jeffree Star
Yeah.
Tana Mongeau
And you know, I love Trisha. I love Trisha. The people I have made it out of that time with you, Trisha, it's. It's. It's a beautiful bond that you cannot recreate. Right. And you guys have had a roller coaster of a friendship.
Jeffree Star
Haven't seen her in almost five years.
Tana Mongeau
You're about to.
Jeffree Star
Yeah, we're about to put this out.
Tana Mongeau
Later because I'm not trying to compete with that moment. Or maybe before. Who knows?
Jeffree Star
Yeah.
Unknown
This could be, like, the build that.
Jeffree Star
But yeah, we haven't seen each other in a long time. I think a lot of her new fans think I'm the devil. Love that. But the OG fans that watch both of us knew that at the heart of it all, there was really no drama. It was just a lot of speculation and other people chiming in, and there's a lot of ugliness. But we had the best times together. I rewatched some of our old clips. Oh, my God.
Tana Mongeau
So I like ours.
Jeffree Star
They're so.
Tana Mongeau
I can see you guys with the damn pink Bentley right now. I can.
Jeffree Star
Me and Esther, the Drive. Throw at Taco Bell. Her sticking her head out the window, screaming, like, so good.
Tana Mongeau
I'm excited as to see you guys.
Jeffree Star
Here's something really crazy. I haven't had Taco Bell in four years.
Tana Mongeau
What?
Jeffree Star
Yeah. I don't eat fast food anymore.
Tana Mongeau
I'm about to check your polls. That's all you and me would do. That makes.
Jeffree Star
It's horrible.
Unknown
I know, but it's so good.
Jeffree Star
Yes.
Tana Mongeau
Now you're making yak tacos.
Jeffree Star
I know. I don't want to be, like, a preacher of all that. But, like, I think when you.
Tana Mongeau
Damn.
Jeffree Star
But when you step away, my brain chemistry and how I think feels better from quitting fast food.
Tana Mongeau
Like, that's the most gag thing you said to me on this couch.
Jeffree Star
Yeah. Like, what do you eating meat from an animal that's raised outside. Eating grass only versus being pumped full of things. I mean, like, McDonald's hamburgers aren't even. It's not even real meat. It's like mealworms.
Tana Mongeau
And we don't know that and do it anyway.
Jeffree Star
Yes. Because we're conditioned. Since birth, our parents have been feeding us Fruit Loops with red eye with red dye in it. Yeah, same dye.
Tana Mongeau
I know. Those chicken nuggets are hot pink paste. Like, and I made it funny where.
Jeffree Star
We don't care, Right? Yeah. The same pigments that are in the blood sugar palette are in Fruit Loops and the thing. And you want a bowl right now. You.
Tana Mongeau
The thing is, if you cut me open right now, I'd probably bleed red 40 like it is.
Unknown
I just said that. There's Twinkies in my purse right now. Like, I have.
Jeffree Star
You want to share one? I'll eat one. I love being filled.
Tana Mongeau
So Right. You are a Twinkie, babe.
Jeffree Star
I am. Even though I'm old, I'm not a twink. I'm a Twinkie. I love that.
Tana Mongeau
I've always said that. But, like, wait, so what made you stop? Are you like me? I'm very, like, even with alcohol, with anything. I'm cold dinner year, and I'm colder turkey.
Jeffree Star
Well, I just kind of stepped away and I. And I started eating really healthy out there. And my neighbors have chickens, and we're eating eggs from the chicken. I'm making you relapse from Albertsons.
Unknown
I guess I've.
Jeffree Star
Let's go in and out right now.
Unknown
I've never gone without it, so I almost don't know how it would feel if I, like, never consumed anything like that. But it's like. You know how people say, like, oh, you feel better if you work out and everyone's like. And then you work out and you feel amazing. Yeah, I know I would feel better.
Jeffree Star
So I'm not saying I won't go have in and out right now, but I just. Just Taco bell. It's just McDonald's. I should stop McDonald's. That has the E. Coli scandal.
Unknown
I know, but it's only like in other states.
Jeffree Star
Oh, like Wyoming.
Tana Mongeau
Oh, what did you say?
Jeffree Star
Like Wyoming.
Tana Mongeau
Oh, no way.
Jeffree Star
Oh. Two people in Casper, Wyoming, where I live, got from the McDonald's 20 miles from my ranch.
Tana Mongeau
The big mack E. Coli collab is crazy. That is crazy. Crossover. Yeah, that's crazy. I never thought I'd see the day that you were not eating fast food. Like, that's just. I associate so many memories. I want to do a yak mukbang.
Jeffree Star
YouTube culture is me and you eating fast food. Me and Trisha at every fast food place. And it's just the yak meat's so good. Let's do a barbecue cookout.
Tana Mongeau
We should try.
Jeffree Star
If you come to Wyoming, there's six restaurants that serve the Jeffree star yak meat.
Tana Mongeau
Really?
Jeffree Star
Isn't that cool?
Tana Mongeau
And I never eat. Like, that's the thing. I'll eat chicken paste. And then it's like I'm like, scared to try yak. It's like, babe, I know I have.
Unknown
A hard time because any animal that I haven't tried yet, I'm like, oh, I feel guilty. But then it's like, I love the little videos.
Jeffree Star
Do you blur this later?
Tana Mongeau
I should, but I'm always vaping. It's so funny. The other day she was apologizing to Britney Furlan, like, dead ass. Serious. And I'm vaping and the smoke's just crossing over and all the.
Unknown
Yeah, I look like I have a smoke machine on me. I don't know. I shouldn't make those jokes.
Jeffree Star
Why not?
Unknown
That's what I'm saying. I thought I was being funny.
Tana Mongeau
Right.
Unknown
It can't be funny these days.
Tana Mongeau
No, you can. That's a good debt for you to have Jeffree star here, I think just to. I know, show you that you can.
Jeffree Star
Say you can be funny. And sometimes people have orange skin, orange hands. That's a really. I just said it on a live. I didn't even do a video. I didn't do anything. I was just live streaming like I always do. I was freestyling and people were asking me questions, and I was just like, you guys, these people have me blocked. I don't know what they're doing, doing. And then I saw my friend Patrick Ta launched an eyeshadow duo. People wanted to try to drag him for the price. So silly.
Unknown
I did see that.
Jeffree Star
So Michaela, who did an Elf collab, this is what started this this week, tried to compare a four dollar moment to a 42, basically saying it's comparable when it's not. I simply reviewed it and was like, this is what it is. It's great. My review really blew up. It's just her lying again and being annoying.
Tana Mongeau
Yeah.
Jeffree Star
So I just said a couple funny things.
Tana Mongeau
Yeah. Because how can you even. Obviously elf makes amazing dupes, but like, you can't compare 42 because that wire hit. That's why. Yeah, right. From elf. You think?
Unknown
I feel like if it's $42, there's a reason it's 42 also.
Jeffree Star
Yes. And the cool thing is I make makeup for a living. I know his lab. I make my highlighters there. So it's cool from a manufacturer, brand owner, creator to be able to let the audience to know about ingredients and different pearls and how things are made. So they understood it. It was just funny. And I guess I was live and people clipped it and posted it on Tick Tock and I guess it's a big thing this week. But I always stand by what I say. I think she's a liar. She has a lot of advisors and they have instructed her to never address. Never address it. It will go.
Tana Mongeau
I hate to never address. I always have and I always will in every capacity. I like. I just, when I see these influencers, like, I don't know, I just.
Unknown
Sometimes they get along better than the people.
Tana Mongeau
That's the thing, that's the frustrating thing is it feeds people to continue to do that because you see it happen so much.

Jeffree Star
So, yeah, I don't, I don't hate her. I don't know her. We've spoken before. I saw her on FaceTime. We've talked in the.
Tana Mongeau
Did she have the orange hands on FaceTime?
Jeffree Star
No, she didn't have money then. And the thing is, when you're making millions of dollars a month, I don't understand why you don't look more presentable. But I think it's the stick of I'm gonna pretend to be the girl next door forever. No, you're very wealthy. Brands are paying her hundreds of thousands of dollars to say something is great and it could be great, could not be great. I don't know.
Tana Mongeau
Yeah.
Jeffree Star
I don't respect liars. And I think that's what's frustrating is that people don't care anymore. So I've had to be like, okay, the integrity of the beauty community has been compromised.
Tana Mongeau
People. I gotta come back on that part.
Jeffree Star
And if people really want the truth, they know where to find it. And my views speak for themselves and.
Tana Mongeau
You know, and they always have. And you've been very consistent with your honesty, which I've always respected. It's. It is so good. I do just want to say like I've known you for so long and you've always been in a good spot.
Jeffree Star
Yeah.
Tana Mongeau
Unhonest about, you know, when you go through things and stuff. But like it just feels like I am talking to a Jeffrey 7.0 like you. It feels like you were just died someone. I mean you've done everything and it's cool that you're in a place where you can do whatever the you want. But what is next for Ms. Jeffrey Lynn? Like what, what. What do you want to do? What are you passionate about? What are you doing? Who are you fucking? I.
Jeffree Star
What would you think about if I was sucking on camera?
Tana Mongeau
It's actually so funny that you say that because I was just going to ask you.
Jeffree Star
I can't breathe.
Tana Mongeau
I was just going to ask you questions in that realm.
Jeffree Star
You've never done that.
Tana Mongeau
I am surprised for the.
Jeffree Star
For an audience.
Tana Mongeau
I've never fucked or sucked on camera. But I would be a liar if I said that I never will. Right. Like I'm not saying I will but I'm not saying it's fully off the top.
Unknown
Yeah.
Tana Mongeau
Because I. I look at the tape in the corner of my room like the hat man every day like I'm thinking about. You know what I mean? I'm just. And it's easy. It's so easy. And you know, I'm not glorifying all. I'm just saying in our personal positions.
Jeffree Star
And who we are and our history of online.
Tana Mongeau
Yes.
Jeffree Star
And when you're not random hookers that are just gonna hop on.
Tana Mongeau
I look at Makoa every day and I'm like God damn, we could just run away with the money. You know. But I. But I. Knowing you when all those celebrities did of. I remember like tiger and just whatever I Was like, damn. I could see jeffree star doing this. But you're going to put a business spin on it. Go ahead, tell me what it is.
Jeffree Star
Well, she asked what's Next? I am 90% done with an autobiography. Don't know when it's coming out. Someone really, a really famous writer wrote it with me, and they interviewed me for, oh, almost two years, and it's just really insane. So a book of being in my mom's stomach till right before Wyoming, like, my entire life up until Wyoming is the book. It's insane. It's very inspirational. It's very dark and wow. Shockingly, even though I showed so much on my YouTube channel, every surgery, every crazy secret, every whatever, I still have a lot of secrets and things from my past and childhood. That's literally where I'm at that I'm ready to share.
Tana Mongeau
Yep.
Jeffree Star
Not to like, oh, it's spicy to make some money.
Tana Mongeau
I relate to so hard.
Jeffree Star
Yes. And there's a lot of dark things and things I went through that I have never told anyone and things that happened to my family. And I just feel like it's gonna inspire a lot of people to see what I've created from the dirt. Right.
Tana Mongeau
I cannot wait.
Jeffree Star
So that's one.
Tana Mongeau
I can't wait for the audiobook. The audiobook is crazy. Hi.
Jeffree Star
How are ya?
Tana Mongeau
I cannot wait. I really mean that. I'm so happy for you.
Jeffree Star
I can't wait. It was really therapeutic, too.
Tana Mongeau
Yes. I'm in the writing process right now.
Jeffree Star
Yes. Oh, my God.
Tana Mongeau
As well, though. I cry over the.
Jeffree Star
My mother and my mom told me things I've never heard before. And I'm in my 30s, so it's like hearing new things about my pat. It was just all so healing and a wild roller coaster. So that's one wild thing we're, you know, I'm working on.
Tana Mongeau
That's, like, really, like.
Jeffree Star
Right?
Tana Mongeau
That's. I'm so, like, moved by that.
Jeffree Star
Yeah. Second on a whole other tinge is like, I have been teaching makeup for so long. I think before I get any older, I should start teaching how to succeed.
Tana Mongeau
I've always said that about you. I could use some. You've actually always given me, like, I even just back in the day, you were like, girl, listen.
Jeffree Star
So I feel like while I still look like this.
Tana Mongeau
So you're talking how to.
Jeffree Star
Yeah.
Tana Mongeau
You know, is it one of those things where. Here's my guess. And I'm guessing you don't have to say yes or no, but I think it's going to Be. Look how long my makeup lasts.
Jeffree Star
Oh, I mean, that's definitely a concept. Right?
Tana Mongeau
Like, look at my. What my liquid lipstick can stay with.
Jeffree Star
Absolutely.
Unknown
Like trying product or like, how does this last through.
Tana Mongeau
Yes. And that's real.
Jeffree Star
That's fun and that's cute. Right. But also people need education on what they're doing, you know, that's my version of a who's.
Tana Mongeau
That's like even just crazy. You have to like. It's got to be the most.
Jeffree Star
Did you want to see a few?
Tana Mongeau
Yes.
Jeffree Star
Okay.
Tana Mongeau
You know I do. Yes.
Jeffree Star
Oh, my God. You might know a couple in here, but so fun. You listen to their music? Music. You don't know them personally. Yeah.
Tana Mongeau
Love always.
Jeffree Star
Where are the cameras? Angled, but yeah. So I think that might be a really nice adventure for me and I'm being.
Tana Mongeau
How serious are you?
Jeffree Star
Very.
Tana Mongeau
Yeah.
Jeffree Star
I just think it'd be really fun it doing even.
Tana Mongeau
Just like. I've never done like tapes and stuff, but I've always loved doing of. I took a little break this summer, but it is.
Jeffree Star
Did you ever show. What did you show?
Tana Mongeau
Just like tits and ass and like no sexy videos in that way. No vagina. Like, I think that's. That's an all in or nothing for me. Like, I wouldn't be like, here's a selfie. Right. Like, it's like taper.
Unknown
Yeah.
Tana Mongeau
Yeah. Like, you know, and I would want to like.
Unknown
If you're gonna do it.
Tana Mongeau
Well, I don't want to say. I just think she was against that, but.
Jeffree Star
Right. But what? Right. Because hers was stolen.
Tana Mongeau
Yes.
Jeffree Star
I just.
Tana Mongeau
I don't.
Jeffree Star
I'm at the stage in my life where I. I've never cared.
Tana Mongeau
Yeah.
Jeffree Star

Jeffree Star
You can't, babe. But you lean off camera. Yeah, I get high. Just lean off camera.

I couldn't really.
Jeffree Star
You think people are ready for it? Like, I Yes. I just a huge. My mouth.
Tana Mongeau
Yes. I think if anything, people.
Jeffree Star
The magic trick of it all disappearing.
Tana Mongeau
They're on the edge of their seat for it.
Jeffree Star
She needs help. Yeah.
Tana Mongeau
Yeah. I think we all. We all could learn a few things. Maybe. I don't know. But you also make it cool to say, like, I want to starfish. And I'm like, there are people like me and Jeffrey who want to swing from it.
Unknown
Like, I, I, I. It's not. I don't know. I just like to lay there.
Tana Mongeau
And that's like, you. You know what?
Unknown
You. How much I care about the person. Like, right now I have.
Jeffree Star
You're not.
Unknown
So now I'll do.
Jeffree Star
Okay. No, no, no, no. You are not the girl that these straight dudes tell me after we. Oh, my God. These. These girls just lay there like a dead.
Unknown
No, there is.
Tana Mongeau
There's a community of the layers. It's not me, baby. I'm swinging.
Unknown
But I'm just saying there's a very niche me. That's what I'm hearing.
Jeffree Star
So you're not the girl hanging off the side of the bed upside down, getting skull.
Tana Mongeau
No, I've got that cover.
Unknown
I will if I care about the person, but more often than not, I don't right now. I care about the person, so I'll do whatever he needs me to do or wants me to do.
Tana Mongeau
I also hit my max on that and I had to dial it back same. You know what I mean? Like, it's like, whoa, wait.
Jeffree Star
Well, I think can't walk. It's fun to have hoe phases on and off, whatever you're in the mood for. You go through phases in life of just having a lot of fun.
Tana Mongeau
And Are you in a whole phase right now?
Jeffree Star
No.
Tana Mongeau
No. So what are you looking for in. So I don't. Did you date? Can I even say his name?
Jeffree Star
Who?
Tana Mongeau
I. Can I say your ex? Your famous ex's name. Should we give him. Let's go.
Jeffree Star
No, I'm Voldemort. The beauty industry of that who not should be spoken.
Tana Mongeau
So, Nate. After dating Nate, did you get in any other serious relationships?
Jeffree Star
Nothing.
Tana Mongeau
It probably taught you about not being as public.
Jeffree Star
Yeah. So obviously that relationship was really serious. Right. He met me when I barely had any money. And the people saw the growth of everything from kind of first meeting till the end on YouTube. And I think I just showed a lot. Right. And I've always showed a lot. And I think moving forward, I probably wouldn't do that again. And I don't think it was a Negative at all. I just think the older I get, I enjoy a little bit more privacy, you know? So after that serious, amazing relationship, I never went fully in that hard with any one I dated. I've had fun with people.
Tana Mongeau
Probably had your guard up as well. Duh, duh.
Unknown
I don't know.
Tana Mongeau
Probably had your guard up like. But it's just.
Jeffree Star
Where's that pen? You need a hit. No, you don't. You'll get mark.
Tana Mongeau
You see, I can't imagine what type thc is in jeffree star's pen. Like, I would see the hat man. I would go non verbal behind you.
Jeffree Star
We'll cut this part out. I don't give a. I could be sitting on it. Oh, thank you, Jeffrey.
Tana Mongeau
I'm. I want to upload this raw. Like, I love everything.
Jeffree Star
Oh, I love that we're all. We love it raw.
Tana Mongeau
We love it raw.
Jeffree Star
So, yeah, I think right now I'm really busy with my career. I am hanging out with someone. We're enjoying each other's time, but I'm not. I'm not dating anyone.
Tana Mongeau
Well, it's probably. It was so hard for you because when someone loves you.
Jeffree Star
Don't believe me.
Tana Mongeau
When someone has like loves you when you don't have anything to offer them and then that goes crazy. And you now you, like, you're never gonna be that Jeffrey again. You have to have your guard up tenfold. What are you looking for? And do you see yourself ever settling down and marrying one person?
Jeffree Star
I don't know. I'm at this really weird crossroads where I'm not searching for anything. I'm not lonely and I'm having the time of my life. I'm hanging out with someone and enjoying their time. And I travel a lot, so I'm really not like.
Tana Mongeau
Do you fly commercial ever?
Jeffree Star
Yeah.
Tana Mongeau
I can't imagine seeing jeffree star on like.
Jeffree Star
Did you see that tick tock of me in commercial?
Tana Mongeau
No.
Jeffree Star
I'm gonna show it to you. It's so funny. Recently a dad filmed me because he recognized me from his. His daughter was watching me.
Tana Mongeau
Yeah.
Jeffree Star
And when you're in Casper, wyoming, let's say you're going to fly to la. You always have to stop in Denver or salt lake because Our town is 60,000 people. It's tiny. So you know those. The jumper planes where there's no first class or economy. It's just like 50 seats. So someone filmed me being like, oh, is he going through financial issues? And I'm like, what are you talking? And so I responded to it like, your dad wants to fucking me. That's why he was filming me. That's what's going on here. And I was like, Nope, there's only 50 seats in the plane. I was in 2A. But there's no. It was just so weird. But, yeah, I'm Delta360, Diamond Masallian missing. I love a good Delta moment.
Tana Mongeau
That's so good.
Jeffree Star
But no, I'm not. I'm not looking for love. I think whatever is going to happen or will drop down my throat. Will and. Yeah, but I'm over the whole phase right now and I'm just chilling.
Tana Mongeau
That's good. Yeah, we have a lot going on.
Jeffree Star
But people are enamored with my tick tock crush. They are?
Tana Mongeau
Yeah. Wait, no way. Is it the guy that you post? You guys were like, lifting each other or something?
Jeffree Star
He was lifting me?
Tana Mongeau
Yes.
Jeffree Star
Yeah, we're. We're best friends and we have fun. What would you call that?
Tana Mongeau
A relationship? Yes. But that's crazy. That's good.

Tana Mongeau
What makes you guys best friends? How'd you meet?
Jeffree Star
You're gonna. You're gonna rip your hair out.
Tana Mongeau
Okay.
Jeffree Star
TikTok.
Tana Mongeau
Did you ever think, though?
Jeffree Star
So here's the thing, though. Let me say one thing. No, I did think, because I've never been on a dating app. So when me and Nathan, I felt like it was the height of. That was five years. So it was like five years ago. Four or five years. I feel like that was like the height of dating apps. I've never been on a straight or gay dating app. Never been on Grindr, never been on anything else.
Tana Mongeau
I couldn't even imagine. Imagine being on Grindr and just swiping.
Jeffree Star
And there's me. Hello.
Tana Mongeau
Yeah, like the.
Jeffree Star
I met Nate on Instagram and I met. You know, I've met a few guys on TikTok.
Unknown
I think Instagram.
Tana Mongeau
TikTok is like a dating app. When I was single, I would save the men in a folder just titled Men.
Unknown
There's folders like.
Tana Mongeau
Yeah, you can make folders and collections of what you say.
Jeffree Star
But see, the thing is, I think when you guys were interviewing, introduced to battling in the Jason Nash world, you're like, this is so stupid. But like, when you're in Wyoming bored sometimes and you've already done your thing. You've made a lot of money. Battling is also fun and people love gifting. It's like, like I said, I do love the serotonin is a video game. It's so fun and I love playing and being live is better. Battling being live.
Tana Mongeau
We're doing a live after this. But. And that's the thing. If we do well, I guess it's yeah. But I do love.
Jeffree Star
I want to pop in on it.
Tana Mongeau
You should. I would love it. I would. Absolutely. We should do a battle moment or something.
Jeffree Star
If you go live for a little bit and I'll teach you how to do it. And I'm like, okay, I want to battle someone. And there's already a couple people in the room. Like, you know, because there's so there's like famous tick tockers that aren't doing dancing or creating content. It's only in the live stream world. There's big creators that are always at the top with me and but they're regular ass strange in their house with.
Tana Mongeau
Their kids and personality about their lives and so fun.
Jeffree Star
So I think it'd be fun. What I'm saying is this to bring you in randomly but it's planned.
Tana Mongeau
Uh huh.
Jeffree Star
Like okay, I'm going to bring in a partner because we would battle them.
Tana Mongeau
Oh my God.
Jeffree Star
And then you just pop up.
Tana Mongeau
Imagine just being a girl in like Tampa, Florida and then Tana Mongeau and Jeffree Star are battling you for galaxies.
Jeffree Star
Like that's.
Tana Mongeau
I'd be so scared.
Jeffree Star
Oh no, no, no.
Unknown
That's unfair.
Jeffree Star
No, no, no. Our team throws lions, universes and Pegasus. Yeah. Unlike Jason's team. My team. My team, they go a little heavier.
Tana Mongeau
Okay.
Jeffree Star
Pegasus, we don't focus on child support. We focus on real money. Yeah.
Unknown
I don't even know what a Pegasus is.
Jeffree Star
It's the highest gift you can send on the app.
Tana Mongeau
How much does it cost?
Jeffree Star
So it costs like 800. But the trick is it's a gift only for level 50s. There's only 20 level 50s in all of America and you have to spend over a million dollars on the app. And I have two accounts that are low level 50.
Tana Mongeau
You're so. You're 50.
Unknown
That's amazing.
Tana Mongeau
You're so like.
Jeffree Star
That is so about 20 people in America can send that Pegasus. Jason's never seen one. Let's be honest, no one I saw.
Tana Mongeau
Alyssa Violet was going live too. Now like she hopped on the train.
Jeffree Star
It's also really fun. I think when you look at other people, you can. Like, I have the best time.
Tana Mongeau
Any of the best fans. Like, the conversations.
Unknown
I was having a good time in there last night. I was like, oh, you know, when.
Jeffree Star
You'Re on Patreon, I'll go live for 10 minutes here. And people would die. Like, people just love it.
Tana Mongeau
I. It is so fun. Stop. That is. It's so exciting.
Jeffree Star
It's really. And the battling is really fun. It can be.
Tana Mongeau
I. It's just so awesome.
Unknown
I never spend a lot of time on the live page and I never.
Jeffree Star
Like, really see anything because it's all about banter. Like, people. I'm. I play a character. Like, I'm me, obviously, and I have friends on there and we all hang out in Kiki. But, like, if I'm battling other, like, dudes or people, I get vicious and they get vicious back. They go in on each other's look. So we all go like, we're fucking vicious.
Tana Mongeau
That's so fun. You're right. I could really just.
Jeffree Star
People love gifting heavier because I'll see these dudes on the screen. I'm like, your hairline's fucked. That's how I start the match. Like, they'll come on the screen. I'll be like, oof. Need a lot of them already live that I'm on the screen and I'm just immediate head cut off.
Tana Mongeau
Wait, stop. That is so fun. I would absolutely love.
Jeffree Star
So it's just like, I love to get.
Tana Mongeau
I love that you're in every avenue right now of it. Like, the reinvention. It's so important.
Unknown
Do you think it's because you don't eat fast food that you have all this energy?
Jeffree Star
Maybe I'm gonna try it, or I don't know. Or it could be being happy. I think I was really miserable towards the end of my LA journey. Right. I think the pandemic ruined so much.
Tana Mongeau
And had you stayed, like, where would you be now? You'd probably be in a cult, like Michelle fan.
Jeffree Star
Yeah.
Tana Mongeau
Is she actually in a cult?
Jeffree Star
Yeah.
Tana Mongeau
Okay. Yeah.
Jeffree Star
Michelle Fawn's in a cult, I guess. And someone has her beauty line still. No, I've never seen anyone wear her makeup before. It's M. Beauty.
Tana Mongeau
Oh. I've only ever known about Ipsy. I didn't even know she had a makeup line. But okay. So that she's. You just made light of this to me. But apparently she's interviewing Tati and she's still around, but all the clips I've seen, she's like, not there. It's what is the.
Jeffree Star
I don't know. It's like a vacant version of her and she got involved with something.
Tana Mongeau
Do you think people are controlling her?
Jeffree Star
I don't know. It's bizarre. I just don't think. No offense, because she is an OG and I don't want to disrespect her. I've never said anything bad about her, and I don't want to. Is. I don't think that she's relevant anymore. Her opinion is not relevant. And that's not saying in a negative way, like, fuck her. It's just a fact.
Tana Mongeau
Yeah.
Jeffree Star
I don't think anyone is seeking out to see if she approves of the new makeup by Mario palette. I don't think anyone cares because was.
Tana Mongeau
She ever known for, like, reviewing? She was almost known for, like, turning.
Jeffree Star
Herself into, like, transformation.
Tana Mongeau
Yeah. So different.
Jeffree Star
And she was at the forefront. And to me, she was the first beauty YouTuber ever. Yeah. OG. Much respect to her. I didn't mean that in a negative way. It's just. I think her time has passed. Stop it right now. I mean, listen, I was sitting in a 25,000 square foot house by myself and my dogs, and I was like, I'm bored. I don't. I didn't want.
Tana Mongeau
I can only have Tana Mongeau come over and eat Jack in the Box so many times.
Jeffree Star
It kind of wears thin. But it's also hard to look at a stranger and be like, the glass elevator and the theater got old. It's like, no having so much and stuff that I thought I needed to fill a void got old. And then once I woke up and had an ego death and realized I didn't need anything but myself.
Tana Mongeau
Sold the pinball machines.
Jeffree Star
Didn't I have them all still? I do.
Tana Mongeau
It's really good.
Jeffree Star
But I sold, like 90 of my clothes. I sold a lot of stuff. I shed a lot of things.
Tana Mongeau
And I'm in that era right now as well. It's just. You realize.
Jeffree Star
You don't.
Unknown
I'm big on that. Travel light through life.
Tana Mongeau
It is beautiful.
Jeffree Star
Yeah.
Tana Mongeau
And Hollywood can just get so dark, and you probably saw so much of the darkness of it, and it's. I'm just. Good for you for getting the out. You know what I want to ask you about, actually, I think Jeffrey would be a really good person to ask about this. We've been talking about it a bunch lately. Tunnels under Hollywood.
Jeffree Star
Okay.
Tana Mongeau
Do you believe in them? Do you think they exist? Have you been to them?
Jeffree Star
They're real.
Unknown
Really?
Tana Mongeau
I knew I would piss.
Unknown
I'm not invited to. Nobody's even thought to tell me about it.
Tana Mongeau
Keep going.
Jeffree Star
Well, there's so many different tunnels. Because the old days, I mean, really, we built our city on top of a city that kind of already existed. So there's just a lot under there.
Tana Mongeau
And do you think celebrities really use them? Do you think people really use them?
Jeffree Star
Yes.
Tana Mongeau
And you think it's the 1%? Like, you think it's just like the.
Jeffree Star
It's definitely the 1%. And the problem is, is I've been invited to these scenarios, and I've. I've felt like the sickest, most lead cancerous feeling ever, and I've never gone down those routes, so.
Tana Mongeau
Same with, like, Illuminati stuff. I'm sure you're gonna say the same thing. It's real. You've seen it, but you didn't want to take a part in it. There was. Because there was a while where people really thought you were Illuminati. Honestly, I was people.
Jeffree Star
We may still hang out sometimes. I'm just not gonna be a Hollywood puppet and entertain anything dark or illegal. They tried to blackmail and coerce me over and over and over to do horrible things, and I'm just not a horrible person.
Tana Mongeau
So you obviously believe all of this Diddy stuff is real and darker than it's even shown.
Jeffree Star
Yes, and I'm glad people are finally seeing it. I think when they saw him viciously assault Cassie, it all made sense because all we do is know his music and he's great. And then I think when you actually see someone as a monster, it's like, holy fuck. Like, yeah, horrible.
Tana Mongeau
That's crazy. Jeffree star.
Jeffree Star
That video ruined my month when I saw it.
Tana Mongeau
Yeah, horrible. But.
Unknown
So it was almost like, nothing positive about it, but I was happy that she was validated because I was reading her comments, like, right after she had sued him and got, like, pennies. But, like, comparatively. And everyone's like, you were out for a check. You're so pathetic. Disgusting, lying. And immediately after, it's funny, it's all like, go back and delete your comments. You guys are so embarrassing.
Tana Mongeau
Yeah, but it's satisfuck.
Unknown
But it was, like, very weird. Like, not that I would want anybody to have a video like that, but it's.
Jeffree Star
It was like, I'm. I'm thankful there was proof to validate, because when women aren't heard, I think that's the worst case scenario is when someone doesn't believe someone.
Unknown
That is actually when someone's so Powerful. You assume that they. Or like people.
Jeffree Star
I mean, listen, I. I fully believe Diddy killed Tupac, so it's like, I'm sure she knew all of that. You don't think he's in bed laughing about that once that NDA ink dries?
Tana Mongeau
Yeah.
Jeffree Star
And they're not sitting in bed one day and he's like, that was enough.
Tana Mongeau
That's. That's beautiful. Yeah. So, yeah, Kim Porter, right? She.
Jeffree Star
They offed her. Absolutely. Allegedly. Yeah.
Tana Mongeau
Does it ever scare you to say things like this?
Jeffree Star
But I guess I have no fear, which is why I don't think they've taken me out. I just didn't want to play the games or be a puppet.
Tana Mongeau
The devil works hard, but Jeffree Star works harder.
Jeffree Star
Yeah.
Tana Mongeau
Yeah.
Jeffree Star
I've sucked the devil off. He's not bad. He's kind of boring.
Tana Mongeau
Third clip.
Jeffree Star
Yeah.
Tana Mongeau
Oh, my God, I love you so much. Jeffree Star.
Jeffree Star
We all have it.
Tana Mongeau
What show?
Jeffree Star
Now we all have it.
Tana Mongeau
I don't see it. Oh, the 660. When did you get that? Did you get that during, like, your MySpace era?
Jeffree Star
No. So I didn't get indicted? No. The drummer of Metallica and Kat Von D actually did that on me. It's a really cool story.
Tana Mongeau
How are you and Ms. Von D? I forgot about.
Jeffree Star
We're still best friends. Shut the up.
Tana Mongeau
Oh, you're. You're. No, you're lying. You're not.
Jeffree Star
Haven't talked in so long.
Tana Mongeau
I saw her on Theo Vaughn and I was like, whoa. Like, I just forgot.
Jeffree Star
Like, I forgot she existed. I know, I know.
Tana Mongeau
That's what we need is you on the ovon. Jesus.
Jeffree Star
So two days ago, I just saw him.
Tana Mongeau
Really?
Jeffree Star
Yeah, we just hung out at a bar. He did a show in Casper, Wyoming. He had the whole arena sold out in my little hometown. And he was so fucking funny. He's also a client of ours. We. You know, we own Killer merch.
Tana Mongeau
Yes.
Jeffree Star
Me and Mark and a friend, we print merch for array of UFC influencers.
Tana Mongeau
Always have. And you've always killed it. No pun intended.
Jeffree Star
Comedians.
Unknown
I would love to see you on this past weekend again. I feel like it'd be. He has the best. He has questions nobody would ever think.
Jeffree Star
To ask, and I love that. Did you watch the cat interview? Was it good?
Tana Mongeau
I. They were talking about, like, ghosts, and it was. I think the ovon could interview a blender.
Unknown
Yeah.
Jeffree Star
Isn't it bizarre? Because you guys have all had best friends for a long time, and then all of a sudden you don't talk anymore. It's bizarre that she was such a big part of my life.
Unknown
Was there falling out or was it just like, oh, am I dumb?
Tana Mongeau
I don't think Jeffrey's ever just peacefully walked away with anyone like, you know.
Unknown
And that some people you just grow apart.
Tana Mongeau
Yeah, that's true.
Jeffree Star
This was like 2016. So you missed that, thankfully.
Tana Mongeau
Yeah, it was before Dramageddon. That was.
Jeffree Star
I remember it was way before. It was actually one of the first real big drama moments I had in my career. Because someone who is never in drama came out and tried to disparage and ruin my career and say a bunch of lies.
Tana Mongeau
Yeah. And someone you loved so much.
Jeffree Star
Yes. Best friend of 12 years went on camera all weirded out and made a weird salacious video about me.
Unknown
How crazy.
Tana Mongeau
It's so crazy how many lives you've lived. Like the MySpace era, even just one of the.
Unknown
That's when I first knew of you.
Jeffree Star
So we were just in Vegas at the When We Were Young festival with Mike Emblem Romance and Pierce the Veil and all these bands band and it's like it was the best.
Tana Mongeau
I've been dying to go to that festival.
Jeffree Star
Those were the best times. Being on the bands Warp tour, being in tour buses.
Tana Mongeau
What do you think about all these like, tick tock boys now being like punk? Because you. You are punk. Listen, like, you know punk.
Jeffree Star
They're wearing a costume. It's cute. Let's see what happens.
Tana Mongeau
It used to be crazy Ozzy Osborne on the walls, you know, like. Yes. God. What did you. What's the craziest you saw in that time? Like, just like, oh my God.
Jeffree Star
Just people just being rock stars and just being outlandish and it was so fun.
Tana Mongeau
What's the craziest thing you ever did as a rock star?
Jeffree Star
What is your version of crazy?
Tana Mongeau
Well, when I think punk and crazy, I do think about the Motley Cruz of it all and the Ozzy Osbournes of it all. And the toilet.
Jeffree Star
I've never done anything. I don't know. I think people think I'm gonna say something really wild. But I don't know.
Tana Mongeau
I just.
Jeffree Star
I just like a lot of fun.
Tana Mongeau
Yeah.
Jeffree Star
You know, nothing like getting and banged out in Paris.
Tana Mongeau

It makes me so happy that all these years later, I've just always been able to call you a friend and like, still can. I could sit and talk to you for eight hours, but. And I would love to have you on anytime you want. And I just. I'm like, I'll be a little co host this. We would love it. I would absolutely love it. And I just love you so much. I really do. All of the things. Go watch the lives. Go buy the products. Go. You don't need any promotion from us. But I will be reading that book and watching us streaming that music and all of them.
Unknown
And I'm watching the tutorial that you're gonna post that part.
Jeffree Star
Oh, yeah. Yes. Had a deep throat and I'm.
Unknown
God, it's so Deep Throat 101.
Tana Mongeau
And I'm so excited for you and Trisha to have your moment. Two of the three of us should do something. It just feels good to. I'm so happy that we're out of all the toxicity of those eras and we've all grown so much, but the small parts that we're able to hold on to that are we all so beautiful.
Jeffree Star
Great memories.
Tana Mongeau
It's. It really. Every time I see those. Those clips, it like it makes me so happy. And you didn't have to welcome me in and I wasn't even a beauty guru. You didn't have to remake my how to cake your face like a Pro and get 30 million views.
Jeffree Star
When I met her, it was just like. We really just clicked. Have you seen old clips of us?
Unknown
Of course. I was watching it in real time.
Jeffree Star
That's so cool.
Unknown
There's no old clips for me. I was there.
Tana Mongeau
But now we are in just a new era and life is beautiful.
Unknown
I love to see it. I feel like it's so cool. Like it's just cool to see.
Jeffree Star
Listen, our final Thoughts are. Nothing defines you, and nothing is forever. And fuck everyone.
Tana Mongeau
I could.
Unknown
I needed that.
Tana Mongeau
I couldn't agree more. I think you are the perfect guest for this time. Like, I'm genuine. I like tearing up. Like, I'm so fucking. Like, just. Wow. I'm really happy to have you. And thank you. Episodes like this also make doing this podcast feel worth.
Jeffree Star
Yeah.
Tana Mongeau
You know, thank you.
Jeffree Star
Of course.
Tana Mongeau
I can't think enough. And I'm coming to see the axe bitch.
Jeffree Star
Oh, my God.
Tana Mongeau
I can tell you. I know Mike Snedger told you about how I showed to Jeffree star makeup brush up my ass, but that's a different story.
Jeffree Star
That's for a different time.
Unknown
It's my favorite part of the show.
Jeffree Star
I've been telling me I didn't obviously expect that story.
Tana Mongeau
Yeah.
Jeffree Star
I was like, hi.
Tana Mongeau
Yeah. Yeah. Oh, yeah. That's actually how we started talking, because, Mike, because on stage, on tour, I've been telling the story about how I shoved a Jeffree Star X Morphe makeup brush up my ass when I was tripping with tarte and Turks and Caicos and why I had to shove it up my ass. And so I think, baby, it's just so recognized. I was trying to remove something out of my ass, like a cake pop with a Jeffree Star X Morphe pointed eyeshadow brush that you carve your crease with.
Jeffree Star
And Morphe still owes me money.
Tana Mongeau
Me too. Well, what?
Jeffree Star
Let me stop the bankruptcy. I'll never get my 1.6 million. Yeah, that's how much they owed me before they filed.
Tana Mongeau
How does that work? You're doing a collab with Morphe. They owe you this.
Jeffree Star
Like, obviously, I've got. I got paid several times, and then the next payment was the 1.8, they decided, well, the new CEO fell into cancel culture. Right. That was. That was way past that. Yeah, yeah. And, you know, whatever. And at the end of the day, they owe me and a bunch of people money. Still were never gonna get it. They filed for bankruptcy and they.
Unknown
I can't believe that's allowed, but I guess there's nothing you can really do about it.
Tana Mongeau
But then it's like they're just moving forward, paying other creators.
Unknown
Oh, yeah.
Tana Mongeau
How did that make.
Unknown
I don't know, like, back pay situation?
Tana Mongeau
We just had the.
Unknown
Did you get canceled? Is that.
Jeffree Star
No.
Unknown
Well, you were saying they fell into cancel culture.
Jeffree Star
Culture meaning, like, they decided not to work with me over the second video.
Unknown
Oh.
Jeffree Star
When the second video came out and I got canceled and Morphe didn't want to work with me. What did I do wrong? Like to the core of it. What did people think that I did wrong? They just thought. They just thought I was a shitty person.
Tana Mongeau
I'll never know. But it is just nuts with canceled culture and just.
Jeffree Star
I don't know what did I do?
Tana Mongeau
Like you would.
Jeffree Star
I've done a lot of things wrong that. That I've apologized for. Moved past this specific moment in time was so bizarre.
Tana Mongeau
Do you hold resentment towards what? Just that like.
Jeffree Star
I'm like. Like what? No, I don't.
Tana Mongeau
That makes me happy. That makes me.
Jeffree Star
I've healed them move past it. It was. It was a crazy scenario. It was obviously supposed to happen. The universe gave me that challenge and we all dealt with it differently. But looking back at Jesus. Just wish. I don't know that I think saying you wish things would have happened differently is just selfish and everything's supposed to happen how it was. But I wish people could have saw it with a different eye.
Tana Mongeau
It will forever be a polarizing moment in Internet pop culture history. But I agree with you that I think it needed to happen and I think that.
Jeffree Star
Yeah. And people miss that era. So with. With me and Michaela, whatever it is that's happening. All I did was speak my opinion and it's obviously turned to really massive thing on Tick Tock. Right. I think the thing is is that people in the comments are saying they miss our old era. Like they don't. There's no new rising. There's no new rising beauty stars and there's no big. There's not many creators. It's me, her and a couple girls. So it's like the beauty community is so small and lacking new blood. Cool people. The OGs all suck.
Tana Mongeau
Damn. Maybe I'll pop out and be a beautiful. Let's make a lip liner. If he doesn't want to.
Jeffree Star
That part like.
Tana Mongeau
Like my bad. It's so.
Jeffree Star
Yeah. I don't know. It's in a weird time and I think a lot of people missed that era because it was so engaging and there was so much happening and there.
Tana Mongeau
Were really genuinely on YouTube maybe 25 to 30 creators that were really doing it and people were really attached to. It's just now with short form content it's so over saturated that the. It's too easy now to love and fall in love with someone in their weekly video in their life. I don't think it will ever happen again in that way. And it. It is nostalgic and almost sad. Like I even dude like as this makes. I can't even believe I'm saying this out loud, but I miss like Logan Paul's vlogs. I like I would wait on them every week like they're just yours and different entertainment.
Jeffree Star
And then Shane came in with the long form.
Tana Mongeau
The documentaries when an episode of Shane Dawson's documentary had just dropped will never be recreated again in my opinion, ever. And it, it is like it makes me sad. I don't know why, but I do have such an attachment to that era forever.
Unknown
I almost feel like when long form you got to know someone a lot better. So now like people are attached to you still because they know so much about your life. I feel like any beauty people like you only know that they're doing makeup and that's it. I need to know everything about your life.
Tana Mongeau
And people just aren't entertaining enough to make a 20 minute video. You know, going to Walmart right like now it's like it's, it's just tick tock. It's just a different time.
Jeffree Star
The only videos that I'm enjoying watching are the two grown men that find pedophiles and beat the out of them.
Tana Mongeau
Modern day Chris Hansen.
Jeffree Star
Yes.
Tana Mongeau
Wait, I didn't know. I thought you were gonna say the Costco guys.
Jeffree Star
No, these dudes, they, you know, they obviously they're decoys and then they, they go to wherever it is Walmart and they're filming and they upload all the clips to Twitter beating the out of them. They don't care. The old days, people just film like, okay, Chris Hansen, you're gonna go to jail. These dudes, they start beating him on the side of the head. They start punching the.
Tana Mongeau
That's honestly fucking the one from yesterday.
Jeffree Star
I have to show you guys later, he takes a pumpkin and mashes on the guy's head and he's so fucked on the ground just like.
Tana Mongeau
Yeah.
Jeffree Star
And he wanted an 11 year old. You should be fucking.
Tana Mongeau
Yeah. Oh absolutely. Damn, that's lit. That is.
Jeffree Star
By the way, when I lived in LA I had one gun. Now that I live in Wyoming, I have 150 firearms.
Tana Mongeau
How are you? I want to get one so bad.
Jeffree Star
Please come to a photo shoot with my Israeli AK47.
Tana Mongeau
I need to show you my stalker. It's actually.
Jeffree Star
Yeah. Yes. We have 100 ars pink gold plated the and we're also allowed to have silencers on suppressors on our guns. So I have 50 of those.
Tana Mongeau
Holy.
Jeffree Star
Yeah.
Tana Mongeau
I like I wanted a gun because my stalker, I'm so scared. This man's gonna kill me. And it's like, yes, I have security with guns outside, but there's something about if I could sleep with it in my nightstand and should get one. We should do like a. There was an era of my life where I didn't need to have a gun. And everyone.
Jeffree Star
Yeah, I'll help you get one.
Tana Mongeau
That's so fun. We should have, like, little. Little pink.
Jeffree Star
You guys go live at 6.
Tana Mongeau
Yes.
Jeffree Star
We have to do a couple of tick tocks. We have to.
Tana Mongeau
We have to. Let's do it. Jeffrey. Jeffrey.
Jeffree Star
Lynn, wait.
Tana Mongeau
I love you.
Jeffree Star
Okay. I love you.
Tana Mongeau
We'll do our outro.
Jeffree Star
The bad lighting's coming in. No.
Unknown
You look gorgeous from my angle.
Tana Mongeau
Yeah. Yeah.
Unknown
Because it's like, I love fish.
Jeffree Star
I don't.
Tana Mongeau
Can I just say it's funny because the second these cameras go off, I'm getting the real tea and that's like this. Like, don't tell them that. That it's just like. It's nuts.
Jeffree Star
Like, what's so tight? That's the real tea.
Tana Mongeau
That is. I've always said that about you.
Jeffree Star
I can't be fisted.
Tana Mongeau
No, I've tried. I've.
Jeffree Star
You're looking at me like I'm a liar. Okay.
Tana Mongeau
So afraid. It's so funny that he works for this podcast because he is just so sweet. Okay, guys, we love you. We love you. Jeffree Lynn.
Jeffree Star
