Laura Lee
Get out. I spilled it all over my fucking body.
Mandy Mua
I like the smell of cigarettes. I think they smell really good.
Laura Lee
Siraj. Are you fucking kidding, baby?
Mandy Mua
It's VIP in there. All right?
Laura Lee
We are not liable. Hey, guys. Welcome back to your favorite podcast. Full coverage with your hosts, Mandy Mua and Laura Lee.
Mandy Mua
And today we just had lunch, so we're like children.
Laura Lee
The energy is spilled. My.
Mandy Mua
That's the pit. That's my pit.
Laura Lee
That's my pit, you guys. Okay, we're gonna do rapid fire today, first and foremost. But I literally. As I'm talking about just some fierce topics. Okay? I'm talking. I get animate.
Mandy Mua
We got pissed off that Manny can't get into the temple. Manny told me and Ty he can't get into the Mormon Temple, and we are pissed. And so you tell.
Laura Lee
Okay, so it's so freaking funny that they say this. So I literally wasn't gonna say that, but here we are. Okay? Literally. So, you guys, if you grew up Mormon or know anything about Mormon church, there's. There's churches and there's temples, right? There's like, just a different thing. If you don't have a temple recommend, you're not getting into the temple. Crazy blank period.
Mandy Mua
Maybe it's VIP in there.
Laura Lee
Yes. I was like, no. So that's just like, what is. That's what I grew up with. Like, I technically would not be able to go into a temple because I don't have a recommend. Like, I'm not an active member. And they're like, yay. And then. So then I of course, got animated and I spilled my salad all over my pants down to the floor on Laura's fucking carpet.
Mandy Mua
He just dumped the whole bowl in his lap.
Laura Lee
And you guys, let me tell you something. The cilantro dressing smells like shit.
Mandy Mua
It smells like un.
Laura Lee
My whole Crotch is not too much. The sriracha. It's gonna activate me.

Laura Lee
So what did you think about this?
Mandy Mua
And then we close it. All right, Pick a number.
Laura Lee
Next one. That's our interview.
Mandy Mua
How did we get here?
Laura Lee
I'm scared. So anyway, you guys, I spilled it all over my fucking body. And luckily it's not, like, stained. You can't really tell that I spilled everywhere because we literally have a guest after this and I'm wearing the same pants, so I couldn't. I had to recycle the pants.
Mandy Mua
You've got to do a full outfit change every.
Laura Lee
That's you. You will do a full head to toe transformation. I'm like, let me at least keep the pants. I gotta switch out the shirt, the shoes. But the pants, please. Like, let me not.
Mandy Mua
Honey, it's Sira Siraj.
Laura Lee
Are you fucking kidding me? Honey is srirach.
Mandy Mua
We went through hard times with the Sriracha.
Laura Lee
Was really difficult. It was very ptsd. Okay.
Guest/Additional Speaker
Years.
Mandy Mua
Okay. My pit is that we went to Napa and my hu.
Laura Lee
I was like. I thought that was our peak.
Mandy Mua
Did not. But you're like, great.
Laura Lee
Okay.
Mandy Mua
Kelsey didn't have a good day.
Laura Lee
Kelsey got it.
Mandy Mua
But Ty has this weighted pink sleep mask that he sleeps with every single night. He does? Yes.
Laura Lee
What the hell? That's Laura. I didn't even know.
Mandy Mua
Yes. That's Lore. That's Tyler.
Laura Lee
I did not know that.
Mandy Mua
So he leaves it in Napa. Oh, and last night he was throwing a hissy fit, honey. He was like, where's my pink man? So I'm on Google. I'm trying to find another one. Tala, you're ruining the story.
Laura Lee
They can't hear. They can't hear. They can't hear.
Mandy Mua
Okay, so pink sleep mask. Silky pink weighted sleep mask that he has to have to sleep this fucking Diva. Okay, first of all, he walks in our bedroom last night. He's like, I left my pink sleep mask.
Laura Lee
He said pink?
Mandy Mua
He said pink. And I was like, if you. If the Alabama you could hear you right now.
Laura Lee
Oh, he'd be like, where's my fucking weighted mask?
Mandy Mua
Napa. So I'm like crying, laughing, but I'm on. He's freaking out. So I'm on Amazon everything trying to find this damn mask. And he looks at me and he's like, I know, it's really expensive. And I was like, was that expensive? And he was like, yeah, that one was really expensive. So I'm like, okay. And then he looks at me, he goes, manny bought that mask for you. You bought the. It's 95. It was one of my gifts that he took from me. And it's like his emotional support.
Laura Lee
You know why it's so exp. I know. Manny got it.
Mandy Mua
Yes. He was like, manny. So you need to buy him another one. Why do I gotta replace a $95 sleep mask? I'm not buying. 95 is crazy for us.
Laura Lee
I know you like. I know you like sleep.
Mandy Mua
So he tried to order it last night and I said, you're not. That's.
Laura Lee
You tried it. That's a. That's a gift.
Mandy Mua
Yeah.
Laura Lee
95. Where did I get that from?
Mandy Mua
Nordstrom?
Laura Lee
Yeah. Yeah, Sounds about.
Mandy Mua
Manny bought me a $95 sleep mask that my husband fell in love when has, by the way, been wearing for years this mask.
Laura Lee
I can't believe you didn't wear it. And he wore it.
Mandy Mua
I wore it, but he just took it. I don't know. But he took it from me. He can't live without it. And now I have to replace a $95 mask.
Laura Lee
It's because, you know, people like weighted like blankets. It's like a weighted blanket for your face.
Mandy Mua
Feels like my eyeballs are going to get. No, I like come in my denning in.
Laura Lee
You wake up and they're like, out here.
Mandy Mua
That's what I'm saying. But he has to have this $95 bag.
Laura Lee
Funny.
Mandy Mua
My husband's a diva.
Laura Lee
Diva down.
Mandy Mua
What do you want me to do?
Laura Lee
No, he is. He is. He's a diva for years. Like, let's be so for real.
Mandy Mua
He has. He has. So he's going to get a new one for Christmas, but he's going to have to ride out November without the 95 mask. And that's my pit.
Laura Lee
Well, our peak is joined.
Mandy Mua
Yeah.
Laura Lee
Speaking of Napa.
Mandy Mua
Speaking of Napa.
Laura Lee
Speaking of Napa. We did go to Ms. Napa Valley. And it was.
Mandy Mua
It was my first time.
Laura Lee
I know. Which I love. I'm so glad they got an experience like Napa Valley for these at least. I feel like everyone has to go at least one time.
Mandy Mua
You did the night pool. You did the nine to do the green bull thing. I'm like, yeah, I feel like everybody has to do a jet to nap.
Laura Lee
I said, everybody's to drive to Napa. Everybody said drive through nap at least one time in their life. But honestly, just because it's like, it's such a, like, quaint town. And I think it's also like, the fact that it's a really pretty town. It's just so cool. It's like, so unique because I'm just. Again, we're in la, so it's like we're used to a very specific, like, way of living. And everyone. It's just like softer and more chill and honestly, slow. Even some, I'd say, yeah. Slow, melodic.
Mandy Mua
That sounds terrible.
Laura Lee
It was so fun.
Mandy Mua
We went Jacqueline, lovely. We did. Jacqueline and Jordan went. And then Tyler, me went. And then Manny came as well.
Laura Lee
Manny came as well. Not many. Not many went and was invited. Manny came as well. They adopted me, you guys. I literally was the adopted fifth wheel on the trip. But honestly, it was so much fun. It was, and it was great because honestly, we were like, very like, we want to have a chill trip. Like, we literally said we're not gonna, like, try to do booked out 8am to 8pm vibes. It literally was supposed to be like a chill, relaxing trip. And it was. And it. What was crazy that the weather was literally perfect.
Mandy Mua
So beautiful.
Laura Lee
And we left and it was like, not perfect.
Mandy Mua
Yeah, it, like turned to.
Laura Lee
It, like turned to absolute the second we were leaving. So we're like. We just got so lucky. It was like the most beautiful fall time just in general in Northern California. Like, all of Northern California looks like that when it's starting to, like, get fall and winter and, like, the foliage starts to change. It was just such an amazing, amazing trip.
Mandy Mua
It was finally a trip that was the right amount of time. 36 hours.
Laura Lee
36 hours was perfect.
Mandy Mua
It's perfect. I never want to go anywhere longer. I'm changing my 44 days. Four days at 36. I want 36 hours. I don't care where it is. I don't want to be there longer than 36 hours. Book the gym. I'm ready to come home. Because it's not enough time to get out of your routine.
Laura Lee
Exactly. Well, the thing is, also, we're on the same time zone, so it's not like. Actually, it's not that far away.
Mandy Mua
It's not torture.
Laura Lee
It's literally like a cute. It's in and out. It's like you go to Vegas for the weekend. You don't go to Vegas for a week.
Mandy Mua
Oh, no, no, my God.
Laura Lee
You'll go to Vegas for a week.
Mandy Mua
If I went to Vegas for a.
Laura Lee
Week, you would never recover.
Mandy Mua
I would be in J for the rest of my life. Because let me tell you something.
Laura Lee
I'm imagining you coming back. You be coming back like Charlie xcx, honey, activated.
Mandy Mua
Let me tell you. Vegas for a week. That is like. That's hard stuff.
Laura Lee
That's sinister.
Mandy Mua
That's sinister. That is. That's a horror movie.
Laura Lee
That's literally sinister. The movie.
Mandy Mua
I can barely do 48 in Vegas, girl.
Laura Lee
Because the thing is, Vegas is a cluster at all times. If you're doing Vegas the way Vegas people do it, it's like.
Mandy Mua
It's literally the way you do that.
Laura Lee
Pandemonium the whole time.
Mandy Mua
It's pandemonium. It absolutely is.
Laura Lee
You're like the. You're going to the casinos. Like, there's no light, so you literally, like, in the Twilight Zone the entire time. It just feels a mess. It smells like cigarettes everywhere.
Mandy Mua
I'm like, I love the smell.
Laura Lee
Do you like the smell of cigarettes?
Mandy Mua
I like the smell of cigarettes. I think they smell really good. I grew up smelling like a walking cigarette because my dad would smoke in the house. To me, it smells like Chad.
Laura Lee
Yeah. It's like childhood with cigarettes.
Mandy Mua
Bur know, whenever you get in someone's car that smokes cigarettes and you turn their AC on and it just is like that cigarette smell coming through. That is my childhood. So the smell is.
Laura Lee
I literally hate that smell. With a passion that burns stronger than the sun.
Mandy Mua
Most people do. Like, if I walk past someone on the street that smoking a cigarette, and I get it, like a whiff. I like the smell. I'm like. When I walk by, everybody say, you.
Laura Lee
Want to absorb it?
Mandy Mua
I want to absorb it. I want to take it in. I don't smoke cigarettes, and I don't want to smoke them anymore. I smoke them in high school. You guys know that I was trying to be cool, okay? But I still enjoy the smell. I think it's because I was raised around 100%.
Laura Lee
Just feels, like, nostalgic at that point. It becomes literally like a day.
Mandy Mua
He smoked Marble Red since he was 15.
Laura Lee
No.
Mandy Mua
Yes. His whole life.
Laura Lee
And he went. And then he just went to. As long as he could keep smoking them.
Mandy Mua
He got like mouth and throat cancer from it.
Laura Lee
Oh yeah. Cuz I mean if you're smoking it that much, of course you can get cancer in the mouth.
Mandy Mua
And he also had cirrhosis of the liver from being alcoholic. And I'm smoking cigarette at the same time. All that happening, that's how you can.
Laura Lee
Affect your liver too.
Mandy Mua
Oh no. From drinking.
Laura Lee
I'm drinking.
Mandy Mua
I was like. It was that. It was the alcohol that got the liver. It was a double dip the throat and mouth and then the liver here, man. It's like, oh, smoke a cigarettes and.
Laura Lee
Cook your liver too. Got it.
Mandy Mua
Maybe.
Laura Lee
Honestly, the liver processes a lot of things. I wouldn't be surprised at this point.
Mandy Mua
I would not honestly wouldn't be surprised.
Laura Lee
But like it just. Smoking is just such a bad habit.
Mandy Mua
Well now everybody vapes and says it's better than smoking, but it's not.
Laura Lee
It's actually probably.
Mandy Mua
It probably is worse.
Laura Lee
Because the thing is vaping is a lot easier to do. So imagine like, okay, so imagine this, people smoking cigarettes. They have to like make a break for a cigarette. They go out, they smoke and they do it. You're vaping all day, every day. And it's nicotine and it's tar and it's things going into your body. So imagine smoking a few cigarettes a day. When you're vaping all day, it's a. Of course the vaping is going to destroy you more and there's more chemicals.
Mandy Mua
What if on the count of three, we all throw away at the vape? Ready? One, two, three. Vapes. He's gone. Throw it out the car window.
Laura Lee
They literally threw it out the window.
Mandy Mua
They did.
Laura Lee
I know the fools listening right now got their vape tossed out the window. Hit someone, they caused a crash right.
Mandy Mua
Now because of us.
Laura Lee
And look what we did. And we are not liable. We are not liable for anything anyone does. That's not us.
Mandy Mua
Also there's Zen. Now everybody I talked to stuck in their gum and it pisses me the off.
Laura Lee
It looks so disgusting.
Mandy Mua
I'm sick of those.
Laura Lee
A Zen pack. When I see a people's mouth salivating.
Mandy Mua
I do know that if Zen were around, oh, you'd be a Zeny. I would, I would be a Zillow.
Laura Lee
I would have one.
Mandy Mua
I would have one stuck to my gum. It reminds me of like tobacco absorption.
Laura Lee
Where people put like the, like the dip the dick. Like that whole thing was always disgusting to me. But the fact that it's like a, a prettier version of that. That's why they do it.
Mandy Mua
My granny used to do like a version. It's called snuff. Do you remember that?
Laura Lee
No.
Mandy Mua
And she's spitting a cup all day with her snuff. Yes. Like that. Yeah.
Laura Lee
Camel.
Mandy Mua
Yes.
Laura Lee
You guys, that is. All of that is really diabolical to me. Anything with the mouth like that.
Mandy Mua
What if we just drink water?
Laura Lee
How about you drink water?
Mandy Mua
Stop the foolishness.
Laura Lee
Stop it. Drink water and let your gums rest. Because the thing is I have a.
Mandy Mua
And go to Napa and drive to Napa.
Laura Lee
I truly, I have a thing with like teeth and gums and I think I just have like this thing for it. Like I'm very like, I want to floss every day. Water pick. Like I'm so about teeth that like the idea of like a tobacco in your teeth or like zinpaks and things like that. It just freaks me out. For like your gums.
Mandy Mua
Yeah.
Laura Lee
You know what I'm saying?
Mandy Mua
Well, all the nicotine stuff is like that classic case of instant gratification. And the punishment comes later. So people are.
Laura Lee
Because you get high from it.
Mandy Mua
Yeah. Like the nicotine, you get a little hit, you little buzz. But you know, it's that instant gratification, the dopamine hit. The gratification that you get from doing is instant. Which people are more prone to do things that give you instant gratification and long term. And then they have long term punishments that come with them. I'm pissed. I know I'm pissed.
Laura Lee
I'm pissed. Cuz that is just something that is just too fierce for me.
Mandy Mua
The number one thing to do. There's a lot of things to do if you want to break a habit. Which one? You should replace a habit. Instead of just trying to get rid of a habit, you have to replace habit with something else. That's chewing gum maybe. That's whatever. With a good habit. Yeah, preferably. And then the number one thing is to make it hard for you to do it. Therefore, you know, you can't have a vape in your house and try to quit vaping. You can't have a pack of cigarettes down in the drawer and try to quit. Like you have to make it hard for yourself to do it difficult. One of the number one steps in stopping a bad habit.
Laura Lee
I always find it funny when I like meet people who like, they say they're like really addicted to one thing and they're like, I dropped that addiction. And then they're addicted to something else.
Mandy Mua
And I'm like, try to have it for a habit.
Laura Lee
Yeah. I was like, you just created your addiction.
Mandy Mua
You have to for the good.
Laura Lee
Yeah. If it's a bad thing, you're like, yep.
Mandy Mua
You want to try to like get in there. A good habit. Yes.
Laura Lee
Water, water, earth, air and fire.
Mandy Mua
Not as instant gratifying, but it will do you good, baby.
Laura Lee
It'll do you wonders. My whole life has transformed because drinking more water.
Mandy Mua
Absolutely. All the kidding me. That will do you a service. Do not give you Instagram.
Laura Lee
Exactly.

Mandy Mua
First rapid fire is the viral minimal A socks are. Okay, listen our they're in stock now so grab them. But our white is our most popular color and we only have 100 pair left.
Laura Lee
Shut up.
Mandy Mua
Yes. So if you guys want the white salt socks from Minimala, we have 100 pair left stuff on our website, use code Manny MUA. Okay, our real first hot topic is Millie Bradby Brown has filed a complaint with Netflix for David Harbour's harassment and bullying on set.
Laura Lee
Okay. Which is really? The whole thing. When that broke, like literally yesterday.
Mandy Mua
Shocking.
Laura Lee
I was like, wait, what the hell? So Millie Bobby Brown, the act like the 11 in Stranger Things. Her father in the show, she has claimed through pages and pages and pages of claims that he has been harassing and bullying her even before season five even started. And it's gotten so bad to the point where they actually have a rep on set watching over everything, making sure that David acts accordingly.
Mandy Mua
Apparently David apparent has like an ex wife that's come out and like. Yeah, he is too.
Laura Lee
In song. In song. I can't remember like what it was, but he. She also like talked about his like sexual proclivities. Like really intense exit. Yes.
Mandy Mua
Okay.
Laura Lee
In the song.
Mandy Mua
Oh, really?
Laura Lee
Yeah, it's crazy.
Mandy Mua
Okay. So also, she filed this complaint before season by. What's the newest season coming out? Is that six? Five. Oh, so she did it before they filmed season five then. So Netflix did their own investigation, but they have not announced specifics of what they found in the investigation of the bullying. So they just haven't said what. They also said it was not anything sexual. It was all just. The complaints were all bullying and harassment, but none of them teetered towards sexual harassment.
Laura Lee
Like, not creep. It's not creepy.
Mandy Mua
It's. Yeah.
Laura Lee
What I'm curious about, like, like, what does that even mean?
Mandy Mua
I know. Like, what is that?
Laura Lee
Is that like. I don't know. I actually genuinely, like, I don't even know what that would mean in that context of like filming with someone and they're getting bullied and harassed.
Mandy Mua
Yeah, I know.
Laura Lee
What does that mean?
Mandy Mua
That really sucks to hear that though, because like, I love the relationship on the show and it's like so endearing is so cool. But to find out, like, and imagine, you know, on set, it's like 16 hour days with these people. So can you imagine like dealing with bullying and harassment and dreading every single day with that person and like doing these vulnerable scenes with this person you can't stand. That would be so hard.
Laura Lee
It's also really awkward because, like, she was like really young.
Mandy Mua
Yeah.
Laura Lee
And he's like a grown man.
Mandy Mua
You file a complaint with Netflix and have to show up and we're gonna say, oh, I freak out. Yeah.
Laura Lee
I was like, I just like, didn't. Wouldn't know what to even do because it's like, how brave her though, to even make those like. Because that is like, really. That's a tough thing to do. You're in that work environment constantly. But it's also like, I wonder if There was ever a world where they were like, like, hey, like, you're bothering me. Stop doing this. And he kept doing it. And it's like, I'm playing a complaint now.
Mandy Mua
Yeah.
Laura Lee
You know what I'm saying? Because it could get to the point where it's, like, bad enough where the complaint was filed, which clearly it seems like it is. But of course, who knows what the situation really, really is? But I do feel bad because I'm like, it just sucks to be on set like that during a situation like that.
Mandy Mua
I know. So crazy. This has sparked a lot of controversy just because the show's so famous.
Laura Lee
It's about to come out.
Mandy Mua
All this is. Yeah. The next season is about to come out and all this air. So it's like, oh, do you think.
Laura Lee
It'S, like, causing, like, drum up for the show perhaps, like, to get, like. Do you think, like, Netflix waiting?
Mandy Mua
Because it already happened. Like, all this already has been happening.
Laura Lee
They waited to release it when the scene's about to air.
Mandy Mua
That's sinister.
Laura Lee
Wait, that's sick. But I feel like that seems like it could happen.
Mandy Mua
Yeah, maybe.
Laura Lee
I'm really confused about the. What it could be for me.
Mandy Mua
Okay. Okay, here's the next topic. Justin Balon's lawsuit for $400 million has come to an end. It's been tossed out by the judge. They did a countersuit for $250 million. It was tossed out by the judge. And so I think his lawyer had, like, time to do another complaint, but they didn't file it in time. So what it seems like is Justin Baldoni is done.
Laura Lee
Like, it's a wrap.
Mandy Mua
No more lawsuit for him. It's a wrap. No more lawsuit for Blake. It is a complete wrap. But it says here that. That Blake Lively's lawsuit was not thrown out and that it will be tried in March 2026. And I think she's mainly gunning for him because of all those statements that were, like, proof and found where he was like, I want to smear campaign on, like, Lively. As bad as. Who's Johnny Depp's ex, Amber. Amber heard, like, he was like, I want to. Amber heard Blake lightly, basically. And I think that's like a defamation right there because she did get a bad smear campaign. And I think they have, like, text between him and, like, his publicist or something like that saying that. So in March 26, that that case is happening is not thrown out.
Laura Lee
So do you think in that kind of situation, do you think it's going to go to, like, a Public trial.
Mandy Mua
Where you can watch it maybe because it's not like, a murder case like Diddy. Remember, they couldn't record it because it was federal.
Laura Lee
Huh. Or this is like, could. This could be a civil.
Mandy Mua
Because it's defamation. And wasn't that the Johnny Depp Amber heard was defamation because she went to the Washington Post and, like, aired him out after she won money. And so it was. Was filmed, so. Girl, that will be insane.
Laura Lee
That'll be insane.
Mandy Mua
I will say all the comments on the Post I read were anti Blake, and they were pro Justin, and they were all like, team Justin. Team Justin. And they were like, Justin's already won this case completely due to the public opinion.
Laura Lee
He won the public opinion.
Mandy Mua
Yeah.
Laura Lee
Well, that's not $400 million.
Mandy Mua
That's not the 400, baby. I think you wanted the 400 million.
Laura Lee
Yeah. I think you want. Of the coins.
Mandy Mua
I think he wanted the 400 million.
Laura Lee
I'm not plugged in enough to know, like, as much about it, because I do feel like it's an ongoing thing. That's, like, more information comes about it all the time. I just saw that when I was like, holy. Like, his got tossed out and hers is still going.
Mandy Mua
Yeah.
Laura Lee
Like, that is why.
Mandy Mua
That's wild.
Laura Lee
That's why he could. Like, the counter. Like, the 400 million tossed, 250 tossed. Everything is tossed out. And I'm like, oh, shit. Like, it feels like he's like, fudge.
Mandy Mua
It does feel like in this situation. But no judge would throw it out unless he had, like, evidence of what he sued doing.
Laura Lee
Like, you know what I mean? Also, like, the timelines not being.
Mandy Mua
Yeah.
Laura Lee
Met. It just seems very, very crazy.
Mandy Mua
It is crazy. It's also crazy. It's such a shame because I read that book and I really enjoyed it.
Laura Lee
And it's tainted forever.
Mandy Mua
Tainted forever. I never watched the movie, and I'm not going to because, like, I think they both blew it. Yeah, I think they totally both blew that movie.
Laura Lee
It was just. All of it was just, like, horrible press. The whole thing was really bad.
Mandy Mua
Horrible, horrible press.
Laura Lee
So, speaking of lawyers, all's fair.
Mandy Mua
All that's.
Laura Lee
Have you seen the bad press it's been getting or, like, the critiques?
Mandy Mua
A little criticism? I haven't watched it yet. I will watch it because I love Kim and I love all the ladies in it, and I. I just want to see it. Like, I've heard so much about it.
Laura Lee
It's very camp. Like, I. So I went to the. I remember I went to the. The premiere of that And I watched, like, the first episode, and watching it, I enjoyed the aspect of it being very like, Devil Wears Prada lawyer version.
Mandy Mua
Like, girls.
Laura Lee
Like, serious, very unserious. Like, to me, it's very, like, camp. Like, it's literally like you're watching it and you're thinking, like, this is drag. Almost, like, in a weird way, because, like, everyone's in, like, high fashion, and it's like, you know, it's not like the kind of. It's not like Law and Order svu.
Mandy Mua
Right.
Laura Lee
So I'm trying to say, like, it's very, like, specific of the kind of show. So when I saw the critics, like, come out literally, like, yesterday about it, and they're like, this is the worst show it's ever been fudgeing made. So Ryan Murphy is, like, worst thing he's ever done. Like, it's all a joke. It's clownery. It's buffoonery. And I like seeing people's reaction to it. And they're saying, like, some people are like, yeah, it's horrible. It's, like, so bad. And some people are like. I think that people are thinking that it's supposed to be, like.
Mandy Mua
But that's not what it is for what.
Laura Lee
It's not, like, serious drama, like, insane. But the thing is, you see the acting in it, and it's very over the top, very, like, camp. It's very ridiculous almost. So it's like, I don't think that they were trying to make a show that's supposed to be taken that. That serious. I think they have serious elements. But I think that the whole point of the show is to be like, like, you know, girl boss, lawyers fighting the good fight for women. And, like, I love the women empowerment statement of that and just in general, but I think it's just, again, it's like, supposed to be just like a fun, dramatic show. Like, fun drama. So I'm seeing all the criticism, and it's actually fucking crazy. But I honestly, like, I will. I would continue watching. I only watched the first episode, but I would continue to watch it.
Mandy Mua
Yeah. You know, like, if you watch the Devil Rose, Prada, and you're expecting a serious case scenario, like, yeah, you're not gonna like it, but, like, it's like, camp. It's fun, it's funny, it's dramatic. It's dramatic. It's all the silly things. I'm sure that's what this show is, too.
Laura Lee
It's just. It's literally just like that in that way. I mean, I'm like, who knows maybe they wanted to see more serious. And it's not, but, like, take it for what it is. I think if you're gonna watch it.
Mandy Mua
It'S like, what show have you watched recently that you've really enjoyed and would recommend to our audience? Ooh, I'm trying to think myself as well. What have I recently watched that I thought was just fantastic?
Laura Lee
The Real Lives of Mormon Wives, honestly.
Mandy Mua
Yes. We got to preview it early.
Laura Lee
We sure did.
Mandy Mua
But we'll talk more about that later.
Laura Lee
Yeah.
Mandy Mua
Also, this season's gonna blow.
Laura Lee
If you guys watch more Wives, you're gonna gag.
Mandy Mua
Oh, girl. The last two seasons are anything compared to this season, which is crazy because the last two seasons were fierce. But what's another TV show?
Laura Lee
We just. I feel we just talked about this. Just talked about Jacqueline. Yes. What do we. I'm trying to think of, like, what shows, like, are, like, really good right now. I just started watching the Witcher, the newest season.
Mandy Mua
Oh, really?
Laura Lee
Just started. It is a little weird seeing, like, Liam.
Mandy Mua
Oh, my God. I know.
Laura Lee
Play it because he, like, it's so. Okay, Joe. It's really fascinating about watching him play the witcher. So Henry Cavill as the witcher is, like, he embodies the witch like he is the witcher.
Mandy Mua
Did Henry Cavill not want to do it anymore?
Laura Lee
No, it was actually a lot of lore behind that. It was about, like, he was going to be coming back as Superman, but they kind of, like, dropped him as Superman, so he couldn't go back and do the Witcher because he had already replaced him.
Mandy Mua
Are you.
Laura Lee
Because, you know, like, that the new David Corston is, like, the new Superman movie. Wait, what'd you think?
Mandy Mua
I liked it, but it was the main Superman. Who is he?
Laura Lee
Well, that's just. He's like, an actor.
Mandy Mua
Why is it not. Why did they drop Henry Cavill?
Laura Lee
Because they were doing. They wanted to go a different direction with Superman.
Mandy Mua
What?
Laura Lee
Yes. Yes. They want to, like. Yes. They want to, like, restart the Superman thing. You got Miguel and so, like, he was going to do it. So then when he, was, like, committed to doing that and, like, didn't do the Witcher. Yes.
Mandy Mua
Oh, wow.
Laura Lee
My poor Henry Cavill. My fucking husband lost the fucking both roles. So then. So Liam Hemsworth ended up replacing him. So when you're watching Liam play the witcher, he's. He's acting like Henry Cavill as the witcher. I don't if that makes sense. He is not the Witcher. Like, you just watch it and you're like, this Is so weird. It's so off. Like, he doesn't. Like, he's acting like Henry Cavill. And they don't address at all. They're not like, did you take a potion to change your face? Like, nothing, nothing.
Mandy Mua
It's literally like when shows do. It's just like, I hate when it takes you out of the fantasy.
Laura Lee
You're right. Of the fantasy. So I'm enjoying it because I like the story of what's happening in the Witcher. I really, really enjoy the story right now. But it's so odd. If you guys watch the Witcher. You guys know I'm talking about. What do you guys think about it? Like, do you feel like Liam. Like, I feel like he's doing the best that he can. I genuinely don't think he could. He could do any better. I don't know if I'm shading him, but I'm like, that. He. I don't think you think he's doing the best he can. Big shoes, but, like, it's humongous. Shoes to fill where, like, Henry Cavill was the one Witcher. He's trying to beat Henry Cavill.
Mandy Mua
I'm looking up shows that I've been watching. I'm trying to see.
Laura Lee
Did you. You just told me about the new it show.
Mandy Mua
Oh, my God. The new it show. That's what I want to talk to you guys. Have you watched the first episode? Okay, so this show is shockingly dark and gory.
Laura Lee
Really?
Mandy Mua
Yes. They, like, slaughter the first episode.
Laura Lee
It is dark.
Mandy Mua
It is dark.
Laura Lee
I'm like, it is dark.
Mandy Mua
It. It is dark. It's really, really dark.
Laura Lee
Wait till they, like, kill.
Mandy Mua
Like, but it's a good. They, like, wipe them out. But, yeah, it's crazy in the first episode, and the second episode is crazy, too, so.
Laura Lee
Oh, there's two episodes out.
Mandy Mua
There's two episodes out on Halloween there.
Laura Lee
I know. It's on HBO.
Mandy Mua
It's really good. It's HBO's most watched show ever. As far as the views. Yeah. Like, the first episode, it's, like, blown out every show they've ever done. How cool.
Laura Lee
HBO is, like, one of my favorite networks to have.
Mandy Mua
Like, a lot of you guys told me you watched Task, which is a HBO show, and you guys told me how much you loved it based off my recommendation. So thank you for that.
Laura Lee
What's Task?
Mandy Mua
Task is that show I was telling you about when Mark Ruffalo is the FBI agent, and it follows the story of the criminal. Like, both of them. Fantastic. Absolutely loved it. You guys. If you need a good action show or drama. Action watch task.
Laura Lee
Now that it's November, I need to rewatch Twilight.
Mandy Mua
Yep, Twilight and Harry Potter. Oh, Harry Potter. Absolutely. Twilight.
Laura Lee
I need to reactivate my November's. I need to reactivate that in me because I love to watch things that are part of the season.

Exactly. So it's like I love a seasonal movie I watch that fits the season.
Mandy Mua

Mandy Mua

It was good. I give it like a 7 out of 10 for like a horror. It was pretty good.
Laura Lee
It was a notoriously rated low.
Mandy Mua
They are which is stupid.
Laura Lee
Like notoriously.
Mandy Mua
You know, I think they just have so much like most horrors have a lot of sci fi because of like demons of course. So they get the beating and the ratings. But there's a lot of good horror movies by the way. I'm scared. I. I don't think you should watch it. Also, Long Legs was a really good horror.
Laura Lee
Oh yeah, you're telling me about that one.
Mandy Mua
Yeah, that was a really, really, really good horror movie. Like the story, you just have to really, really, really pay attention and it's like telling backwards and you're like figuring out what's happening.
Laura Lee
Let's not watch Weapons.
Mandy Mua
I've already watched it twice. I'm down for a third. I'm down for a third.
Laura Lee
I love weapons.
Mandy Mua
Yeah, it's like, I don't want to say comedy horror.
Laura Lee
It's camp horror.
Mandy Mua
It's.
Laura Lee
It's camp horror. That's the genre.
Mandy Mua
I'm getting it. It's really good.
Laura Lee
It's very. That it's so because the actual concept of what the. Of the movie is is very campy and it's very dramatic and over the top. And it's like what the villain is. Is so like. Oh, my God, of course.
Mandy Mua
Yes.
Laura Lee
So it's like, that's what makes it really fun.
Mandy Mua
We also watched this weekend the Eileen Warner.
Laura Lee
Did you guys watch that documentary?
Mandy Mua
It came out on Netflix and it is about. I don't know if you guys remember the movie Monster that Charlize Theon did. She won an Oscar for one of. I don't want to say it's one of my favorite movies because, you know, it's such a dark, heavy movie, but I do watch it not often, but every few years because it is just such. It's kind of like Dallas Buyers Club where the entire movie is just so dark the entire time. But I do believe some people in this earth are born without a chance.
Laura Lee
Yeah.
Mandy Mua
Like, I think some people's. I think everybody, you know, like your life is what you make of it. But I just think sometimes people are born into such unfortunate circumstances in their life, unfortunately bold, with a lot of serious. That it would be like a miracle for them to make it out. And I think that was the case with Eileen. And she was like Florida's third woman ever on death row to be get the death penalty. And she became a serial killer. But if you hear her story and why she turned into that, I have a lot of empathy for her.
Laura Lee
So do I. Watching it, I felt.
Mandy Mua
I feel like the court system just completely tossed her side as a piece of trash and didn't care about her, her story, or any truth to do with it.
Laura Lee
After watching the doc. And then that one interviewer that gagged. The lawyer.
Mandy Mua
Yeah, I mean, the lawyer was a piece of. The defense attorney.
Laura Lee
Yeah, he was scum.
Mandy Mua
The prosecutor, I believe it is, was a big piece of. So which they. The documentary is like all like the footage from her court cases, mostly in real life. Like, it's actually her in it. And it just so those. Like, yes, she did wrong things. She shouldn't have murdered the seven men. But it just shows how still the courts and the justice system and the prosecutor did not do their job. They were horrible to her. And it just shows how discarded she was, especially in the 90s and she was discarded her whole entire life as a human, you know, so it's really, really unfortunate and sad, but Charlize Theron like put her life into like playing Eileen to a T and like the story to a T. So it's Just such an incredible movie. If you guys haven't watched Monster with Eileen, it's really dark.
Laura Lee
But now I'm actually, like, really interested because we just watched the Eileen documentary. So now I'm like, It's gonna give me context to, like, the movie.
Mandy Mua
They act out everything that happened. And, like, Charlize is her. Like, Charlize is Eileen.
Laura Lee
She actually embodied her.
Mandy Mua
Because now you've seen Eileen. Because the documentary. And the documentary Eileen's in a lot. She had a ton of interviews and was super fam from being, like, one of the first women serial killers. And now you'll see Charlie. She's literally. Incredible movie.
Laura Lee
I'm gonna watch it. I'm totally gonna watch it. Christmas time.
Mandy Mua
Yeah, do that one on Christmas morning. Go ahead. Put Monster on for your family. They'll all.
Laura Lee
My whole family's gonna really tell them.
Mandy Mua
It was a. I was like, Laura.
Laura Lee
Suggested this for Halloween for Christmas.
Mandy Mua
It was a me recommendation.
Laura Lee
But they're gonna be like, then, yes, y'. All.
Mandy Mua
I love a good TV show.
Laura Lee
Or maybe so do I. It's my favorite. I love talking about it.
Mandy Mua
It's, like, always my favorite thing to do.
Laura Lee
I love talking about shows, movies, plots.
Mandy Mua
If you get me going, I'll never.
Laura Lee
You'll stop. I know.
Mandy Mua
I'll never stop.
Laura Lee
I know. I'm the same. What's our next topic?
Mandy Mua
Okay, our next topic is Sydney Sweeney finally speaks about her American Eagle Good jeans campaign.
Laura Lee
Let's. I want to. I literally want to read her statement verbatim, because I literally was like, period mama, like, to me. Because, like, obviously, the Sydney situation, like, it got so big when with the, like, good genes, there was a lot of, like, discourse about this situation about jeans and the play on word of jeans. J G E N E S and J E A N S. So there's a lot going on. Right. But she finally, like, addressed it in an interview, and she basically said, I did a gene ad. I mean, the reaction was definitely a surprise, But I do love jeans. And because I knew at the end of the day what the ad was, it didn't affect me one way or the other. So basically, she was saying, like, maybe I just. I was hired to do a job, and I did the job, and it didn't really affect me well. And I like that she said that because I felt. I feel like, again, all the vitriol and intense and hate, like, for people taking it for something that, you know, I feel like was just taken out of context. I under.
Mandy Mua
I can understand how people can be. See that as sideways and be like, I can too. So we're specifically promoting that. It's good to have genetics.
Laura Lee
Yes, Genetics.
Mandy Mua
Blue eyes and blonde hair and, like, good. Those good genetics. And it's like, I could see how that's weird. It just got so explosive that you would have thought she.
Laura Lee
And they were shredding, like, her for it. When it's like, that was the campaign. That was the ad. That was what American was doing. It wasn't like Sydney Sweeney came up with this concept herself and she wrote the lines for it. It's like. But Sydney was getting shredded for it. You know what I'm saying? So I feel like that was, like, not really warranted. So I'm glad that she was like, well, it really, you know, at the end of the day, didn't really affect me.
Mandy Mua
Yeah.
Laura Lee
Because I just love wearing my jeans. That's what I do.
Mandy Mua
She said maybe the check was cash.
Laura Lee
Maybe the check cleared also.
Mandy Mua
It worked really well for American Eagle.
Laura Lee
Yeah. Because they rage made it in a.
Mandy Mua
Way that they were ten in one day. And apparently the history of American Eagle, they were just tanking.
Laura Lee
Really.
Mandy Mua
Yeah. Like, pulled them back out of the.
Laura Lee
I mean, American Eagle. I haven't heard about American Eagle in me either.
Mandy Mua
I really have not. I really have not. So I. I mean, it worked for them. All the bad press on it.
Laura Lee
It worked for them.
Mandy Mua
It still worked. So it is what it is.
Laura Lee
I'm more of an Abercrombie, you know?
Mandy Mua
Me too.
Laura Lee
Yeah.
Mandy Mua
Aritzia. Yeah, I do like Aritzia jeans.
Laura Lee
Huh?
Mandy Mua
Also Levi.
Laura Lee
Oh, yeah, absolutely. These are the.
Mandy Mua
It comes down to two. Like, if that bothers you and you're like, you know, I don't feel like right for American will do that. Don't buy the jeans.
Laura Lee
Don't buy the jeans. Don't buy any of their.
Mandy Mua
Don't support the brand. You can put your money where your mouth is. And wallets. Yep, that's right.
Laura Lee
100%.
Mandy Mua
Okay. Jonathan Bailey is voted the sexiest man alive for People magazine.
Laura Lee
Yes, he is. He is. That's why I love much. Yes. He's wicked Fiero.
Mandy Mua
Yeah.
Laura Lee
He's. He's in Jurassic Park. Like, he's in so many things. He's like, really, like, I like the Hollywood boy right now.
Mandy Mua
Bridgerton. Like, that's my main for him, of.
Laura Lee
Course, with his, like. But see, I feel like he's not like, hot in Bridgerton like that. Like, he's cute. He's cute. I think he's like, he's hot and like, other Roles like in Jurassic. And when he's doing. And, like, when he's, like, doing photo shoots, like, I feel like. Because, you know, with Bridgerton, like, they have, like, the facial hair that's, like the sideburns that go down to their chins. Like, it's just very intense.
Mandy Mua
Yeah.
Laura Lee
I feel like people are, like, really hot and, like, he's really hot in other roles. And I always, like, I always find it really fascinating every year when they do, like, people's, like, sexiest man who they vote for. And I like that it was actually someone I find very sexy. Like, a lot of times they do it, and I'm literally, like, whatever, girly.
Mandy Mua
Yeah.
Laura Lee
The fact that it's an openly gay man, like, I just like that even more because it's like, oh, my God. Like, someone who I actually find very sexy and is. Who's openly gay and, like, goes through Hollywood as a gay person, not, like, hiding the fact that they're gay. And, like, Hollywood is gay. Gay, baby.
Mandy Mua
Hollywood's.
Laura Lee
They're gay, but they never want to say they're gay. So it's literally like.
Mandy Mua
Do you think Pedro Pascal's gay?
Laura Lee
Yes. I'm. I literally am convinced that even if he's not fully gay, he's on the spectrum. Spectrum of sexuality 100. There's no world in which, like, just seeing what he does.
Mandy Mua
Benny Drama broke up with this man.
Laura Lee
I wanted to cry. I wanted to cry.
Mandy Mua
We were on the plane. I literally held my phone out. Manny was in seat, like, 57 in the very back, and I. And I held my phone, and I.
Laura Lee
Literally put a monocle on like this. And I saw from all the way in 57. I'm like, Laura, it's Benny and his.
Mandy Mua
Man, and we're screaming girls blind. He. Drama. I'm just kidding. He was like, two.
Laura Lee
I was gonna be two seats behind her. But literally, they. So if you guys haven't seen the show overcompensating on Amazon, let's tell them to watch that.
Mandy Mua
I think we already did.
Laura Lee
We did. We did tell them, like, weeks and weeks and weeks ago. We actually watched it. They knew. But overcompensating, it's amazing. Benny dramas, and he's. He's actually a content creator that created a show, and it's on Amazon, and the show is so good. It's just such a fun, like, coming of age age.
Mandy Mua
He got renewed for season two.
Laura Lee
So happy.
Mandy Mua
Yeah.
Laura Lee
And his bestie in real life is, like, sister in the show and their podcaster.
Mandy Mua
So, like, me and Manny has A girl, literally. He's a gay guy, right? And he's famous for doing Kris Jenner skits, but just skits.
Laura Lee
So many skits. He's like a skitsy.
Mandy Mua
But his Kris Jenner skits are extra famous online, and he was able to create a really funny TV show.
Laura Lee
Such an amazing job. I love seeing. I love their podcast too. Like, I just really like them both a lot. I'm a huge, huge fans. But him and his partner Terrence broke up, and after nine years, honestly, if I'm. If I'm with you for nine years, like, I feel like it's a long haul.
Mandy Mua
I'm pissed. Yeah.
Laura Lee
Like, honestly, what are we doing?
Mandy Mua
Like, what the are we doing after nine years?
Laura Lee
Then, like, for me, I'm literally like. But see, the thing is, I'm the type person where after two, I'm like, we've been together forever.
Mandy Mua
Two is a long time.
Laura Lee
Two is forever. To me, my longest, like, relationship has been, like, six months. So two years is a lifetime. To me.
Mandy Mua
It is. Especially in the gay world.
Laura Lee
2. 2 is 10, 9 is 100.
Mandy Mua
2 is 10, 9 is 1, hundred is a hunt.
Laura Lee
90 years.
Mandy Mua
You have to do the game map to, like.
Laura Lee
Yeah.
Mandy Mua
Correctly equal it out. You know what I mean?
Laura Lee
That's on, like, nine years is literally 90 years.
Mandy Mua
I had a pumpkin painting party, and.
Laura Lee
We didn't talk about that. Me all, man.
Mandy Mua
You know what? You guys?
Laura Lee
Amazing.
Mandy Mua
I don't want to talk about it.
Laura Lee
No, we are. No, no, we are gonna talk about it because it was such an amazing.
Mandy Mua
It was. It was.
Laura Lee
And it literally almost felt like it was like a annual thing. Like, it was like your first one with a lot of. But you know what? You first. With a lot of people. It almost feels like you've been doing it with a lot of people for, you know, I'm saying.
Mandy Mua
Yeah.
Laura Lee
So it felt like I was like, oh. Like, this is like, what it is. But it's like, again, it was the first time Loris hosted a huge pumpkin painting event essentially in her house.
Mandy Mua
It was fun, you guys.
Laura Lee
It was so fudgeing. Fun. Pumpkin painting is such a fun activity to me. So much easier than carving. I love it way more. It lasts a lot longer.
Mandy Mua
Yeah, it's.
Laura Lee
Everything about it is perfect.
Mandy Mua
Yeah.
Laura Lee
Nick blew us all out of the water.
Mandy Mua
Yep.
Laura Lee
Painted.
Mandy Mua
Aaron was so excited to meet Nick. Everyone there she was. I just want to meet Nick's lipstick Nick. Because we talk about her all the time. She's been with us since, like, 2017. She's been the one who's done my most iconic glams, I would say, for like, my photos.
Laura Lee
She transformed me too.
Mandy Mua
And Aaron's never met her. So Aaron is like, I've got to meet this lipstick legend. I've got to meet the legend.
Laura Lee
Yes.
Mandy Mua
And she's just the coolest person in the world.
Laura Lee
She's amazing. It was incredible. It was so fun, like, honestly. And it was great because it was like no drama, literally. There was like 16 of us there.
Mandy Mua
17, actually. 16, maybe. 17.
Laura Lee
It was something like that. This ad brought to you by Vive Healthcare, the makers of Apertude Cabotegravir.
Mandy Mua
You never skip your SPF and you carry hand sanitizer like an accessory. But what are you doing for HIV prevention? One way to help protect yourself from HIV is Apertude, a prescription medicine used to reduce the risk of getting HIV in adults and adolescents. Adolescents weighing at least 77 pounds.
Laura Lee
You must be HIV negative to receive aperitude and get tested before each injection. If you think you are exposed to HIV or have flu like symptoms, tell your doctor right away. More HIV testing may be needed. Aperitude does not prevent other sexually transmitted infections. Practice safer sex to reduce your risk. Get aperitude as scheduled. Missing doses increases your HIV risk. Don't take apertude if allergic to it or taking certain medicines that may influence interact. Tell your doctor about your medical conditions, liver problems and mental health. Serious side effects include allergic reactions or rash, liver problems and depression. If these occur, get medical help right away. The most common side effect is injection site reaction.

Laura Lee
It was a lot of people in Laura's house. Okay? Of lot a a lot. And the fact that it was all kumbaya bliss the entire time with people like in our industry that we've known for literally 10 years OG people, new friends. Like, it was just such an amazing, amazing time. And everyone had an amazing time. Everyone was so cool, so gracious, so grateful to Laura for hosting and it was just like something so fun.
Mandy Mua
It was really fun.
Laura Lee
Would you ever consider doing that as like an annual thing or is that like kind of hard to pull?
Mandy Mua
Was kind of hard to pull my name Jeff coming to help me. Jefe El jefe.
Laura Lee
Love him.
Mandy Mua
My neighbor helped me put it together. Okay? Literally, my neighbor came and helped me put.
Laura Lee
Laura sent me a photo of him, like sending. Sending a flowers. I'm like, who the is that?
Mandy Mua
I was like, is the floor, silly. He's like, why is there a florist at the pumpkin? I did, but it was like, who is that man and why the florist?
Laura Lee
And I'm like, why is he helping and I'm not?
Mandy Mua
Oh, well, you know, I need fresh flowers for pumpkin painting, Literally.
Laura Lee
And I'm the type too, that would be like, laura, what do you need from me? Yeah, do you help with anything? Like, I got you, and you're like, nothing. Now.
Mandy Mua
I would never allow that behavior. That's awesome.
Laura Lee
Literally.
Mandy Mua
You also. Also. Also something fun to address. So I always post me cleaning after the party. And then always one of the top comments every time is like, why does your friends not help you clean? You guys, do you think I'm not talking to y', all, by the way. You're on the ones that said it. But you guys in the comments, do you guys really think I'm gonna be like, okay, all 17 of you, everybody pick their plate and take. Like, that's not what I want. I actually don't want anyone to clean. She literally anything, anyone to touch my stuff. I want you to eat the food. I want you to drink the drinks. I want you to paint the pumpkin and do the tick tock and then go. I don't need 17 people cleaning my house. If I had a problem with a messy house, I would not have a pumpkin painting party my home. I think that would be so weird to ask. Like, I get it if it's a hangout of three people 100%. And it's like, you know, can, you know, you guys always put, like, your plates in the sink and throw all the trash away and, like, all that. I get that. But like, a party of 17 people, you think I asked them to clean? I don't want them to clean. I didn't invite them to clean up after themselves.
Laura Lee
The thing is, also, Laura is the type of person where, like, if they were to clean up after themselves, just to clean that clean. Yeah. Laura is not gonna let their clean be the clean, you silly goose. Hello. She's a Virgo.
Mandy Mua
Think I'm gonna let someone else clean my house and then me trust that, like, my friends just, like, start putting stuff away.
Laura Lee
You know, my clean will never be as good as Laura's point blank. And that's like, period.
Mandy Mua
I don't need people to clean. Like, I'm not like, oh, my God, this is such a. Well, I do. I'm a boss ass. And don't you ever think I can't do.
Laura Lee
You're like, Baby. And I got to film it.
Mandy Mua
Give me two hours. That house will be spotless. You can eat off the floor. Okay, So I don't first of all need anyone clean. I understand. They're like, it's a courtesy, but it's not. Whenever it's that many people, it's not. You're here, it's a hindrance, and then you leave. You're not here to take down the event.
Laura Lee
You know what I mean, right? Yes, I know.
Mandy Mua
Like, when we go to birthday parties with all these people, you think we're cleaning their house and like, what kind of party? So you're got. You guys. Not yawful fam. But you know the weirdos who are like, coming for me. I'm like, back down. Also, someone did leave a good point. And they were like, you guys, that was a lot of people. What are you mean? Like that? Like, that's not.
Laura Lee
She wants 17 people cleaning.
Mandy Mua
Get out.
Laura Lee
Get out of my house. Imagine every being like, I need a trash bag. I need some lice. Laura would literally rather clean her herself to have anyone else clean. Yeah, there's just no world if everyone's like, hey, let's all help. Lord's like, get the stop.
Mandy Mua
Also, I'm always a clear understanding whenever I go into something, even having like four or five friends over, if I don't want to mess and I don't want to deal with it, I won't.
Laura Lee
Have them over 100.
Mandy Mua
That's kind of my thing.
Laura Lee
Yes.
Mandy Mua
Like, if you can't deal with it, then just don't host at your house. I can handle it, though. I'm also a real badass. Alex Earl. Stepmom done ran her mouth and got Alex caught up in drama Girl the day.
Laura Lee
So dancing the stars of season is, like, very talked about. This is a huge season of dancing stars. It's everywhere. You know, Jen from Mormon Wives, Whitney from Wives. Alex Earl's in it.
Mandy Mua
Steve Irwin's son.
Laura Lee
I love him. He's just like a sweet. He just gives me sweet angel by Robert Robert Sweet angel. So basically he's, like, being talked about a lot. There's a lot of clips going around. There's a lot of people that are, like, on social media doing it. So just being talked about more. And so basically what had happened was Alex Earl's stepmom is watching Alex Earl. Right. And all the judges gave her tens for her dance, and she did a great job. One of the judges gave her a nine. Girl a nine, which is amazing. A minus. So literally, the mom as she's watching it, filming her TikTok, she's like, why don't you just go take some more own zempic or something to the judge.
Mandy Mua
Like she's filming her TV screen with her iPhone and she goes, why don't you go take? Because whenever she flips and gives her a 9, she's like, oh, why don't you go take more Ozempic? And she talked about to Cheryl, the judge. She also was like a guest judge that came on.
Laura Lee
But she had been, she was a pro before.
Mandy Mua
She was a pro dancer on the show before. So they brought her back to judge this episode and Cheryl made a statement about it because it blew up.
Laura Lee
Yes.
Mandy Mua
And they're saying as big as it blew up that Alex Earl's stepmom actually still did not take down the post. She was just like, I'm standing.
Laura Lee
I really don't like, I genuinely don't know what they're using to say about that. I like feel, feel like that's literally body shaming at its finest.
Mandy Mua
Yeah.
Laura Lee
To me cuz like Cheryl's like a skinnier.
Mandy Mua
Why are you body shaming for giving us like. It didn't have anything to do with like a great rating. Yeah, it was a great rating. It's not like she gave her seven.
Laura Lee
Exactly. No, literally she acted like she gave.
Mandy Mua
Her a two, she gave her a nine and then she got body shame, said why don't you go take more zpic? And then Cheryl spoke out and said basically, you know, that's harmful to say something like that. But she, she said if you would say something like that over a nine, that's clearly what you value in life. You value how skinny you are and that's all you value. That's the first thing you go to over a dancing score. Because it doesn't. That was her first thought was Takeo Zemp Takeo Zenpe. Because, because it's like they don't have anything to do with one another. They don't correlate.
Laura Lee
Anyway. No, nothing. It's weird because Cheryl's skinny. That's the weirdest thing I've ever heard. And honestly it's so embarrassing for Alex Earl. So embarrassed. I, Alexander, that was my stepmom and I'd be like, what the are you doing? Shut up.
Mandy Mua
And I totally understand that when it's your family member you feel more passionate and you take it more personal. But you don't post it.
Laura Lee
No. But you also don't say like crazy things.
Mandy Mua
That's great.
Laura Lee
Like you can be like oh, get it together.
Mandy Mua
Like talk your in your home with your family. You don't go publicly body shame someone. Yeah, that's crazy.
Laura Lee
Especially over something like that. Which was actually like so dumb to criticize over. Yeah, like that was so ridiculous. And, and it's like at the end of the day you can be like, come on, Judge. What was that? It was a horrible call. You can easily say stuff like that without being like, go take it with them. Yeah, get another shot.
Mandy Mua
That's just.
Laura Lee
That's crazy. That's literally crazy.
Mandy Mua
Go straight to physical appearance shows what you value, which is really unfortunate. But I mean, Alex doesn't have anything to do with that. Alex didn't post it. Alex didn't say anything about it. So I just thought it was weird.
Laura Lee
And Alex has been slaying this season so it's like she's doing great and it's like girly, keep slaying, keep doing your thing. Ignore, literally ignore all that because that's just like so dumb to me.
Mandy Mua
And that's our last time.
Laura Lee
That's it. That is it for today's episode.
Mandy Mua
