A
We've all been there. You hold on to a coupon, hoping to cash it in at the store. But then you forget about it and suddenly you've got a mountain of useless expired coupons.
B
Do you think this one's still good? Free milk.
A
Oh, mate, that expired in 1993.
B
Dang it.
A
Fortunately, there are better ways to save money. Like by switching to Geico, you could save about 900 on car insurance without ever touching a coupon.
C
Oh, how about this one? Half off floppy disks.
A
Now you should try a bit of spring cleaning.
B
It feels good to save big.
A
It feels good to Geico.
C
Well, the holidays have come and gone once again.
A
But if you've forgotten to get that.

You get it now, you call it.

B
Stop fucking apologizing. You're not making it any better. You're just reminding me how late we are. I know I'm specific. I know I'm a little high maintenance, which is why I tip really fucking well. I don't want to start shit, but don't you.
A
Okay. Really? Jeff Lewis has issues.
B
Hey, welcome to Jeff Lewis Has Issues. In today's episode, Nichelle Turner and Reza Farahan joined the show.
A
We're.
B
We talk about Nichelle's holiday movie reviews and her dating life. Plus Reza chats about his New Year's resolutions. Good morning.
A
Good morning.
B
Good morning.
A
Good morning.
B
We are all anxiously awaiting the Valley Persian style premiere. Thursday, 9:00pm yes.
C
And two episodes are gonna drop.
A
Nice.
B
Oh, really?
C
Yes. They're trying to get you hooked. Cause I literally have 47 new castmates.
B
Okay, so he has been exaggerating this. And finally I said to him this morning, I said, reza, to tell me the truth, right. How many cast members guess in the show?
A
6.
B
Higher.
A
10.
B
Higher.
C
12.
A
12. How are we gonna remember them all?
B
You can't.
C
That's. I think that's why they're dropping two episodes, because it took the whole first episode to introduce everyone.
B
Now, Nichelle, you watch a lot of reality tv.
A
I do. All of it.
B
And report on all of it.
A
All of it.
B
So this is what I said to Rez this morning. Was complaining about two of his castmates. Not ones.
A
Only two.
B
Not ones. We know.
A
Okay.
B
But I said, you know, he's, like, bitching about him, complaining about him. I said, reza, you know how this works. You got to have a couple sacrificial lambs. True that. We can. We can back that bus right on over.
A
True.
B
These two, you need them.
C
Yes.
A
Yeah.
B
Right.
C
Grateful for them.
A
So what is the biggest issue with these two?
C
When you. I mean, one of them. Just watching the teaser and the trailer, you get a sense.
A
Oh, I think I know which one you're talking about.
C
This one is going to be spicy. And then another one is a content creator. And literally any time that's a tough. You're around that person. That person is driven to, like.
A
Yeah. Pull out the phone. Create content. Yes. That would drive me nuts. Yeah. Okay.
B
How do they. How do they allow that? The. The. Because Bravo is very concerned about confidentiality. And I know even though they're very worried, they don't want us to talk too much about what we have filmed that day on radio.
C
Yeah.
B
So I can't imagine them being okay with some content creator.
C
But it's all these, like, TikTok. It's all the videos that go viral, and then this person is like, let's recreate that video. And so it's just all these weird. I guess young people are into them.
A
So you're out here doing the Toni Braxton not man enough for me challenge.
C
I mean, if that was the challenge, I'd be into it because I'm into Toni Braxton. But it's like, you know, beats in the Trap. Yeah.
A
Oh, I did that one with Paul Feig and it went viral.
B
Yeah. And it's 10 episodes.
C
I think it's nine.
B
Nine episodes. Two drop on Thursday.
A
Yes, I'm here for it.
B
And then can I watch that live? Because I don't have DirecTV. Do I do it?
A
You can watch it on Hulu.
B
I can watch it live on Hulu?
C
Yes.
B
Okay. On Thursday.
A
Bravo, Hulu.
B
Otherwise, it's Peacock the next day.
A
Now, are we getting vintage Reza Shahs of Sunset Vintage? Are we getting Evolved grown Man?
C
I think it starts out as Evolved grown man. And then as the season progresses.
B
Yeah.
C
It gets.
A
The stash fills in.
C
It gets a little more vintage.
A
Okay, okay, okay. All right.
B
No, I am worried about that, but I think when you're in that situation surrounded by all those people, you React negatively, you get triggered. You react. I mean, I would. I would assume that you insulate yourself from people normally in normal life, insulate yourself from people that trigger you 100%.
C
I talk about this in therapy weekly. How I try and control my reactive nature and how I do that. I keep my circle small. You know, I know what triggers me. I avoid it. But when you're in a situation and you're dealing with a lot of personalities and egos and alcohol, it just eventually comes to a head.
A
That's why at Nestle, well, you deal.
B
With more personalities than any of us in this room combined.
A
Every single day on Grace and looking.
C
Beautiful while doing it.
A
See, that's why I come here on Entertainment Tonight. Yeah.
B
How many people would you say you interview per week?
A
Well, this weekend I hosted the Palm Springs Film Festival, and I think I interviewed in a span of two hours, probably 30.
B
Wow. So when you do like a weekend, is that just part of the salary situation or do they give you a little bonus, like, thanks for going to Palm Springs. Here's your little bonus?
A
Well, they don't, but sometimes when I do an event, I do get paid to do that, even if I'm doing it for ET Sometimes. Sometimes I don't.
B
So would they come to you and want ET to cover it and then you'll go to the producer?
A
Yes.
B
And you don't tell them you're being paid?
A
Well, no, I listen. I tell them.
B
Oh, okay. I wouldn't say anything.
A
I'm getting my money. They don't have anything to do with my. They. I don't care if they do. Like, I don't care. I'm getting my money and then I'll get whatever on top of it.
B
Right.
A
But, like, for this one, we are like the exclusive. We were the exclusive outlet for the Palm Springs Film Festival, and we're backstage and we're exclusive on, you know, all of those things. So Mary Hart was doing that for 30 years. I mean, she hosted it and they decided to, like, kind of do something different. And so they asked me to do it this year after, like, so many years of Mary Hart doing it. So it was kind of like all in one, all inclusive thing.
B
Do you think that the. The viewers will respond? Well, because some people, they don't like change.
A
That is true. There's a lot of people that don't like change. I would hope so. I mean, I find myself to be pretty amiable and nice, but sometimes they just. No, I don't like her. Where's Mary Hart? I like Her.
B
It's a safe bet when you take someone popular.
C
But it's time. You know what I'm saying?
B
Well, how old is Mary Hart? Can you look that up? Jameson, it's time. Thank you so much, Jameson.
C
We want you like Mary did her thing.
A
She did. According to the Internet, Mary Hart is 75 years old.
C
Yes. Thank you.
A
Mary Hart built the genre. Yeah. Yeah.
C
And we can say thank you and goodbye to Mary now.
B
Thank you for yours.
A
Mary's been gone for a minute. Cause Nancy Odell was the host of ET for nine years after Mary left. And then I came on after Nancy.
C
Yeah. And we can sing Gone for a minute. Thank you to Nancy.
B
Did they like you when you came on? No, because Nancy, after nine years, I mean, you get used to seeing someone every day.
A
I mean, they, they, they did, they did. But change is tough. And also when you go from. I was more scared because I was like. We went from these two, like, beautiful, blonde, like, Americana looking women to me, and so.
B
Well, you're not ugly.
A
Well, thank you. I appreciate that. I'm not saying I'm ugly, but I'm different. And people sometimes are like, whoa, what's happening here? But I will say thank you because most people thought I was the host before I was ever really named the host. So when I became the host, they were like, what do you mean you're being named the host? We always already thought you were because I'd kind of been doing the job for a couple of years anyway. They just hadn't given me the title and the paycheck.
B
Do you have a new watch on today?
A
Oh, see?
C
Yes.
B
What the hell?
C
It's not the boy.
B
Do you have two Rolexes now?
C
Yeah, this has a bigger face.
B
So do you mean two are at home right now?
A
No, they're with me. And it's a good thing because ADT just called right before we walked in here. I got a burglar alarm at my house. No. Again, Reza was about to be doing the show by himself because I was about to run up out of here. ADT called and we're like, we have a burglar alarm at your home. I'm like, are you kidding me right now? So I looked at my cameras. There was no one there. I think it was just like a sensitive, like, signal that got crossed.
B
When were you robbed again?
A
March. So it's almost been a year.
B
Okay.
A
Yeah.
B
So you got the call today?
A
I got the call today and my heart went palpitating.
B
But were you having trouble with that alarm before? Cause Keon was saying something. You were having trouble.
A
I don't supposed to be my Rent a Penis. And you were not, and you told everybody.
B
Okay, well, explain that. Rent a Penis?
C
Yes, please.
A
Good for him. Kian called me yesterday. And when he called me, we were talking about, you know, just kind of what's been going on and chatting about, like, what. What possibly I could talk about today. And I said to him, I'm having an issue with ADT right now because I can't set my alarm. It won't set. And I'm freaked out because I feel like I can't leave my house because my alarm won't set. And I said, see, this is the issue. This is the time where I feel like I need a man here to help me. And I know women everywhere, feminists everywhere, running their cars off the freeway right now, but I don't care. There are certain things that sometimes you just need a fellow there to make you feel better.
B
Or a lesbian.
A
Or a lesbian.
B
Lesbian's better.
A
Or a good looking butch lesbian. Yes, a handsome lesbian would work, too. Yes, but lesbian. Thank you. And at this rate, I might need to.
C
You need to talk to Kyle Richards.
A
You know, me and Kyle would make a good couple, but we both like to put on a lip and a lash sometimes. But I could be like, her butch lesbian. Kyle's got it going on.
B
What you probably. So you have a faulty sensor. Yes. Right. So you have to bypass that sensor when you put the alarm on.
A
Yes. Which I just did.
B
Okay, good. So which sensor is that? Just so people know, because there's when they come to rob you.
A
So we can let everyone know. But Kian was like, do you want me to walk you through this? Do you want me to do. And I said, you're kind of my Rent a penis right now.
B
He loves a milf.
A
I think I need one.
B
He loves a melf.
A
He said he would be it for me because Doug, I think, is passing a gallstone. So he's my boyfriend. He can't be my rent a penis. Cameron wasn't answering my phone call, so he couldn't be my rent a penis.
B
So it can wait a minute. So when is Doug? Was he gonna see a doctor today for the kidney stone?
A
Oh, I didn't know that.
B
Well, you already passed one, but now he has another one.
A
Oh, my God, Doug. Well, I did text him yesterday because Keon shamed me. He said, he's your boyfriend. You haven't even talked to him. So I said, you know what? You're right. So when we hung up, I like, text Doug and I talked to him for a while and. And he said he was doing fine, he was doing well, he's doing good. I told him he was my rent a penis. He sent me a photo like, ooh, and we're all good now.
B
Does. Do you find him hard to get off the phone?
A
Um, no.
C
That was a questionable no.
A
That is not how you talk when you tell the truth to determine that was a lie. So I kind of stopped texting. And then he followed up with a couple, but it was because I was in the middle of baking. And if not, I would have been happy to have like a back and forth with Doug.
B
Well, I usually. So I'll call him usually. And then what I do is he will keep talking.
A
Yeah.
B
So I just like, I gotta go, bye. And I just click.
A
Well, he was telling me about the medication he was on.
B
Yes, that's when you have to hang up.
A
And so I said, listen, I gotta look this up. So it was a lot, but I was glad to connect with him because I hadn't seen him since Annie and I did cooking kibbutz.
B
He's a wealth of knowledge, so you can call him for questions. Yesterday I just, I was kind of like surfing the. The streaming networks and so I said, hey, what was that movie you told me about? And what's this one? Did you remember that one? He goes, yeah, like, okay, bye. So you just, you can just get the information and get out, get in, get out.
A
Speaking of movies, can I say something real quick? Can I say thank you to the chumps? Because the chumps, like, showed up and showed out and watched my Christmas movie.
B
You mean A Runaway Bride for Christmas?
A
A Runaway Bride for Christmas. Woohoo. They watched. I got so many DMs. So many. Like, I got so much everything from. From the chump saying I'm a chump. I love the movie. I watched the movie. I was so excited and it did pretty well. It did well.
B
Uh.
C
Oh, the glasses went on, you guys.
B
No, I just.
C
The glasses went off.
B
I'm glad, I'm glad you brought it up because, you know, we do. We do have a couple reviews here.
A
Did you watch it?
B
I have not seen it. And by the way, if you had remind me, Keon, I swear I would have watched it last night instead.
A
The lie detector determined July. Oh my God.
B
Crazy. Ended up watching the same thing last night.
C
Like the Mary Cosby documentary.
A
I've seen it. I've seen it.
B
We watched episode one.
C
I started episode two.
A
What Are your thoughts.
B
Well, it got better reviews than A Runaway Bride for Christmas.
C
Oh, my God.
A
Did it get better? I didn't see any reviews from.
B
No, no. Real quick. We'll get to this one. Just says, terrible, trite, overacted, predictable fake effects to the max. Odd camera angles, not heartwarming. Skip, there are better choices. It's worse than you think it will be. Movie was hysterically bad. Acting was bad. Story was bad. Filming was bad. The background music overpowered the actors voices. Someone wrote. Why? Just why?
C
Oh, my God.
B
Okay, this is encouraging.
C
Can we get a good one?
A
We're gonna get a Razzie.
B
Terrible, terrible movie. Very lousy movie on so many levels. The acting is terrible. Except for the leading lady.
A
There she is.
B
Whom is actually pretty good.
A
Wow.
B
The others act cold and are reading a script. There's no passion or credibility. There's no chemistry between any of the characters. See, I disagree.
A
That's from Jackie Turner in Columbia, Missouri. Huh.
B
I don't know who it's from, but then I think my favorite. Let me find that one.
A
Oh, boy.
B
Truthfully. Get ready. Truthfully, this should be called the Geriatric Bride. The lead actress looks to be at least 50.
A
Hot as she is, not to be.
B
Age phobic, but it's distracting to pass off someone this old as a blushing bride.
A
Oh, my God. You know what? Whoever you are, you can kiss the narrowest part of my behind. Because there are people in this day and age, my generation, who are blushing brides who haven't been married, who are starting the second chapter of their life. And that is me, ma'. Am. Or sir. Or them, whichever.
B
The guy that you hooked up with because it says the male lead from Virgin River.
A
Yes, that's right.
B
Is a relaxed pro guiding the story. Okay, this isn't so bad. This is how he or she ends it. The movie's okay, but it could have been more so.
A
She's without that old ass.
B
They seem. They see potential without that old ass.
A
No egg having dried up. A stream is a stream. Okay. Counts. Yeah. Watch it again, bitch, and be mad.
B
We did clip a few photos of you making out with the guy from Virgin river and damn. I mean, I see you sucking his chin.
A
I kind of was.
B
That's insane for Hallmark or whatever it is. What is?
A
Life. It was lifetime.
B
God, look at that.
A
So this is what they told you to do?
B
Look at her.
A
I was kissing. This is what they told us to do. When you kiss, you kiss.
C
Oh, my God.
A
One and two, and then you separate, so you kiss for two seconds.
C
Nichelle, it looks like you're going in for a Big Mac. Your mouth is wide open. You're a Big Mac wide open. Look how wide the mouth is open.
A
Oh, my God. I think I was feeling something that day, and I just needed it.
C
I'm here for it, though.
A
I needed it.
C
I'm very much here for it.
A
I got two of those kisses.
B
Okay, we got a problem here.
C
What's happening?
B
Tinks just texted me.
A
Okay.
B
She said, are you going to the brunch thing on Saturday? I said, not invited. Also, I was not invited to the Christmas party. I mean, you think they would learn their fucking lesson?
A
Oh, I think you were. Remember, you were invited. And I think the exact quote was, fuck. No. Wait, to which one? Shane.
B
No, that's not true. Shane.
A
I can't believe you just outed him.
B
Shane, you're a dick. No, I would never say that.
A
Oh, I'm sorry. I was thinking of something else.
B
Chinx wasn't invited to the Christmas party either.
A
Oh, no.
B
I bet. My guess is Entertainment Tonight invited you. You. To your. To the Christmas party.
A
Well, yeah, but I kind of threw the Entertainment Tonight Christmas party. They didn't do anything. I said, let's. Let's do something. Cause. But that's harsh.
B
How'd you end up with two more Rolexes? You got sugar daddies all over the place.
A
More than one. I bought this one myself. I found.
B
Okay, so the other two were given to you by men?
A
Yes. The same man? The same one? Yeah. He gave me the first one when we were together. He was a generous and a lovely man.
B
Has ever bought you a car?
A
Yeah.
B
What the. What kind of car?
C
The current one.
A
No, it was. This is a cute story. It's a cute story. So when we were together, he said to me one day, my mother was visiting. He said, oh, it's your mom's birthday. I sent some flowers for her, so could you please be home? And I said, sure. And so I got a call from my gate and said, we have a delivery. And I was like, oh, great. Yeah, I thought it was the flowers. And so I walk outside to meet the delivery driver, and up comes this purple Porsche Panamera with a hoe on it with like. It was. It was. My birthstone Color was amethyst, which it was. He did that on purpose. With white leather interior. A Panamera is my dream car. I love them so much.
B
And please tell me you kept it.
A
When we broke up. I gave it back.
C
No.
B
Did he ask for it back?
A
No. Oh, no, he'd never asked for anything back. But I gave it back. Why?
B
You earned it.
A
I did. And that's the one regret I should have kept.
C
I should have kept that car.
A
But it gave it back.
C
Judging by the two tone diamond encrusted Rolex you recently received, I feel like.
B
He'S still into it.
A
No, I told you guys, he just likes to be big daddy. And so.
B
Well, let him be big daddy.
A
Literally, full time. Okay, listen, Jeff, you slut me out every time I come here.
B
Did that diamond necklace come from him?
A
No.
C
Speaking of slutting out.
A
But a lot of the diamonds that were stolen came from him. A lot of them.
C
Speaking of slutting out, I have a new listing in Silverlake.
B
Good.
C
I'm photographing on Friday.
B
What's the address?
C
It's on Ivan Hill Terrace at the end of the cul de sac.
B
Did you already sign the listing agreement?
C
I have not. But it's locked and loaded.
B
Okay. It's locked and loaded. When you sign a listing agreement, it's locked and loaded. You can't trust any of these other agents. Mercedes will be at the door in five minutes.
C
Oh, my God, I love Mercedes. She can come to the door anytime.
B
What is the listing price?
C
It's going to be somewhere between 12 and 1 3.
B
How many square feet?
C
1800. Just shy of 1800 square feet. Room for an ADU. It's got this whole underneath the house kind of area with multiple bedrooms. So if you want to live in the upstairs and rent the downstairs for additional income, it's perfect.
B
We should have an open house segment on Jeff Lewis Live.
A
Well, we do. We literally do.
B
Where we just talk about everybody's listings.
C
Yes. So if you're in the market for an amazing house, modern, redone moving.
B
Oh, it's ready to move in.
C
Move in. Totally redone room for an adu.
B
Where do we go?
C
Hit up, come to Reza Farahan on Instagram, DM me, Google me, send me a message.
B
Maybe Big Daddy would buy it for you.
A
But you probably would.
B
You live in a gated community and you still got robbed.
A
No, this was before where I lived before. Oh, okay. Yeah, before I was building where I am now. But can I just circle back? Because he was my boyfriend.
B
For how long?
A
Two years.
C
That's a lot.
B
I'd keep the car.
A
The car? The car was a gift.
B
Like, when did the car. Oh, three months in. So you had the car for two. So look, if he had got. Given you the car and 60 days later you break up, I Understand that. Yeah, but you had the car for almost two years.
A
It was a bad breakup. It was a bad break. I was in my feelings and I shouldn't have been. I should have just kept all my stuff and just.
B
I wish we were friends.
A
Just the car. Okay. Yeah.
B
She kept all the jewelry, which still got stolen. Yeah, but you got cash out of it and you bought that other house. Right. And then did you rent it already?
A
Yeah, it's about to be done because I'm putting a new deck.
B
Well, announce the address. This is the open house segment.
A
Well, it's in Missouri. And it's go and I will. And it's. It's going to be on. It's going to be on for vrbo. And also, what's the other.
B
How much? How much a month?
A
So not really a month because I think I'm going to do. I hadn't decided the night. I think it's going to be more like it's going to be cheap, like five or six hundred a night. But it's a 4,000 square foot house. Yeah. It's going to sleep a lot of people in Missouri, in Columbia, Missouri. And so you can. Girls trap. Yeah. You can fit a bunch of people in it's, you know, college town. We're also providing like transportation. Transportation back and forth. If you do it for like a football or basketball weekend, we're going to provide transportation. So it'll be a good little party house.
B
What happened to your husband's blowjob neck?
C
My husband is going to Colombia with Gigi, who will be here tomorrow. Yes, Zeti is going to Colombia for umbilical cord stem cell therapy in Medellin, Colombia.
A
What is blowjob neck like?
C
He had.
B
He injured his neck.
A
He injured his neck, but I'm trying to get the visual. I know that's weird.
B
Okay. I love how you're pretending like you don't know what it is and you've never had it.
A
What is a blowjob? Where did that car come from?
C
That car came from somewhere. Those diamonds didn't just appear.
B
I think somebody should book a trip to Columbia.
A
She spent with a chiropractor. But what is like you get a crick? Because I've never gotten a crick in the neck.
C
No.
A
He has a panorama but not a crick.
C
He has a degenerative disc stuff going on in his neck. And he's going to a lot of oral sex.
A
There's nothing wrong with that. There's nothing wrong with that.
C
I mean, hello, we've been married for 10 years. You better believe there's a lot of oral sex.
B
Yep. Period. Somebody clip that for next week, please.
A
Interesting. This is all very interesting. That is a new one. Yeah, That's a new one.
C
Yeah. And this resort does the same thing. They pick you up from the airport. They do all the stuff you're gonna do for your vacation rental.
A
Nice.
C
Yes.
B
Oh, are you picking them up from the airport?
A
We would do all of that.
B
Oh, I like that. Where do we fly into?
A
Into Columbia. There's a regional airport. You have to take a stop if you're. Unless you're coming from Chicago or Denver or Dallas, but.
B
So we're gonna have to stop somewhere.
A
Yeah, you gotta stop.
C
It's a huge house. We should have a chump event there to promote.
A
There are chumps in Missouri. There's lots of.
B
We're gonna miss our connection.
A
Well, we'll have to go in the spring.
B
I don't want to go through Dallas. I'm afraid I'm gonna miss my connection.
A
Go to Chicago or Denver. If we fly United. Yeah.
C
Oh, my God. I was just watching you guys. I was just. This meme on Instagram. They said, if you fly Delta, you're a bottom.
A
Whoa. Literally, if you're on a determine, you're telling the truth.
C
Delta, you're a bottom. American. Where do the tops fly? You're a top. Americans fly.
A
Well, I fly on both. And if you fly your verse right. I like that.
B
I don't know where you would. Where would you get that information as well?
C
It's on Instagram. It's on Instagram.
A
What? If you fly spirit, you're a broke model.
B
Now. By the way, this weekend, you and Frank had a date night at Tam o'. Shanter's.
A
We certainly did. And we kept our eyes out for Michael's slutty little waiter, but we got nothing.
B
He wasn't there.
A
Oh, I don't know. I did not see a gay in that entire place. And then our server came over as well.
B
You two were gay enough.
A
Wait, but how do you know? Oh, no, I knew. Oh, no, no, we knew. And so lovely woman. She was great mother, lovely. But then the busser came over and we were.
B
What did you say? Hold on. What did you just say?
A
She's a mother.
B
She's a mother?
A
Yeah, she's a mother. Like, actually as a kid, she's a child. Like, mother on her mamacita on her thing, you know, like where she puts her check in. It had pictures of her daughter. So we were chatting about her daughter I see.
B
Okay.
A
So she's like a mother.
C
An actual mother.
A
So we were giggling at the thought that she was, you know, she was the waiter hitting on Michael and his boyfriend. So it wasn't her. Then the busser came over, but he was like this older, chubbier man. And then we were giggling at the thought of him, so it just wasn't a miss.
B
What did you order, more importantly?
A
I got the turkey dinner.
B
How was it?
A
Which I love. Thanksgiving dinners are my favorite meal.
B
How was your ibs? Did you take your fiber pills?
A
Fine. Yes, I took my fiber pills.
B
So you made it home okay?
A
I did. Franck did not get the prime rib, but he did get the brisket, which was delicious. Silver Lake? Yes.
B
It's been there forever, I guess. I want to go.
A
And they bring bread to the table.
B
You can go to Ivanhoe, check it out, make an offer. And they go to Tam o' Shanter's afterwards.
C
Yes.
B
That's where you'll write the offer?
C
Yes. Do it.
A
And then we went to Bigfoot Lodge to get a nightcap, which was super cute because it's all. I've never heard of that either. I've lived here for two.
B
It's Silver Lake.
A
Silver Lake, Yeah. And there was like.
B
They call it Los Feliz. It's not really Los Feliz.
C
It's Ivan Hill Terrace, by the way, not Ivanhoe.
B
Oh, okay. I like Ivanhoe better. Okay. Ivan Hill will do. It's good that you. That you clarified that.
A
Is that Franck? That's right. Yeah. Oh, he's cute. Thank you. He's cute. So we had a cute little dinner, but we had no threesome. It was such a bummer.
C
Well, with your ibs, how are you gonna do a threesome anyway?
A
Well, there's a way. You know, first of all, that turkey looks fire. That dinner looks delicious.
C
Scrumptious.
B
Could not have eaten all that. Are you serious?
A
And three pieces. You have ibs, and you ate that? I did. I was ready.
B
Wait, did you not eat all day long?
A
I didn't eat a lot that day. That looks good as hell.
B
How much do you weigh?
C
120.
A
Somewhere around 130.
B
You ate that whole dinner? That's, like, enough for three people.
A
Now it's 135. Turkey, gravy, dressing, mashed potatoes. There's Mac and cheese on and some vegetables. That looks delicious.
B
You got Mac and cheese, too?
A
Yeah, we split it. What's the cocktail? What are you drinking? A Negroni. I'm having a Negroni. And then he got a blueberry something.
B
You had to go into a food comb after that.
A
It was so good. I was tired.
B
I kinda wanna go.
A
We need to go. Can I ask a really personal question?
B
Uh oh, here we go.
A
17 inches. So, Hr, it was along those lines, like, if you're going out and having a really romantic night with your lover and it's.
C
And.
A
At the end of the night, you know, you feel away. Cause you've had a really lovely night now. But you ate that. I've talked about this before on the show. This is what I refer to as a fuck first meal. Okay, Got it. Like, you know, if you're having this meal and you want to do the biz, you gotta do the biz before. Before you go out.
C
That's the kind of meal you have with a significant other.
A
I'm sorry, I just have one more question. What happens if you go out, you have this amazing night and you're just feel like you're feeling.
B
Oh, God.
A
You cuddle and go to bed. What do you do? I mean, we. Listen, if I go out and I'm having a good time, we're getting it. We're getting it. After eating that much. Heck yeah.
B
I don't care.
A
No, yeah. That's why she got a Porsche.
B
Yeah. And two Rolexes and all those diamonds.
A
I'm gonna work from a place of yes kind of girl.
B
Now, we did go out for Shane's birthday this weekend, which we will discuss after the break. Kian didn't make it. So the deal was keyian had a first date. And I said, if it's going well, we're not gonna see you, right? He goes, no. So if it wasn't gonna go well, then we were hopefully gonna see him at the bar. But we never saw him, so you know what that means.
C
He got it in.
A
Hey, well, can I call him out? Cause when he called me on Sunday, he said, I don't think that relationships are in the cards for me.
B
Oh, he's a player.
A
Yeah, that's what he said.
B
Oh, he was hitting on you?
A
He might have been.
B
He was totally hitting. He loves a melt.
A
I was taking it. Keon, were you hitting on me? A little bit. But he did say I told him it's okay to play the field. He's young. It's okay not to be in a relationship. And he said he thinks that that's.
B
Let's ask him a few questions. When we come back, I'd like to know about his date.

Where'd you go? Manhattan Beach. So it's far away. That's why I couldn't make it to Shane.
A
Oh, you took them to. Because you didn't want anyone to see. Very far away. It was like an underground, very dimly lit bar. This is getting into. Oh, you had to go in the back door.

A
Guys, he's not a relationship guy.
C
Member?
B
Well, he was with that other girl. Westlake Village. This is what worries me. Nichelle. And I'm sure we've all worked with these people. He's very good at his job. Until he falls in love and then it's just. He's completely distracted. He makes major mistakes. Yep. So I don't want him to be in a relationship.
A
Well, you know, you said to me that you kind of feel like you're in the stick and move phase.
B
Nichelle will keep it casual.
A
Hello. I will.
C
You need to be an fboy. Come on. This is your FBOY era.
A
Can I have a big house, a pool?

All right. So you're going to go out with them again? Yeah. Okay, good.
A
Have you already made the plan?
B
Good question.
A
With them again?
B
Good question.
A
Yeah. Oh, wow. During the week or next weekend?
B
Tbd. How soon did you text them? Nine minutes after they left.
A
All right. Asshole.
C
Oh, yeah.
A
Now, this was on Saturday. So how many times have you spoken since then?
B
Good question. I mean, I don't know, like, as much as one would every day. Oh, he's being vague. He moves fast every day and he falls hard.
C
Lesbian.
A
Good morning texts.
B
Nah. I mean, nah, good morning texts. But you texted yesterday.
A
Of course, yeah.
B
Did you text today? Kian?
A
No. Tell her Good morning. It's 9:00am did you text a photo? Don't tell.
B
All right? He's shy.
A
I like a photo.
C
A dick pic? No.
A
What do you know? Well, I didn't. Never mind. Oh, no, no.
B
Complete that thought.
C
You gotta tell. You gotta tell.
A
I've never gotten a dick pic before. What?
C
What?
A
I've never gotten one.
C
If you go to your DMs, I guarantee you there's some unopened hidden requests.
A
You think so?
C
For sure, yeah.
B
Open them. Trust me.
A
I don't know what I would do if I got one.
B
Did it hurt your feelings that she.
A
Didn'T respond to you right Right.
B
I mean, she's used to big daddy.
A
Well, yeah.
B
So I don't know. Whatever happened to dance class Annie?
A
Oh, I canceled. Cause I was going to the Adrienne with Liv Christmas party. Yeah, she flaked out on it for you. And then I saw you all at that same party. But I was honest and I called her and told her. She was like, no go, baby.
B
When are you guys gonna do a repeat?
A
You need to probably on the 17th. Well, I'm. But I think she said, yeah, she's gonna come on the 17th.
B
Well, she has to work today, Nichelle.
A
Yeah, well, I do too. I mean, but she said she's gonna come on 17th. And I will.
B
Yes. Reza, we have to know.
C
Yes.
B
The premiere party. The infamous premiere party of the Valley Persian style that he has been talking about for two weeks. Because his just real quick to download you.
A
Okay.
B
Cast members ex husband was having it. Who is seen on the show but not a real cast member.
C
Correct.
A
Okay.
B
They decided to have a premiere party, invite everyone and charge everyone $100 a head.
A
What?
B
And they have money for a show that he's on.
A
Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Hold on there. Had they invited everyone to a premiere party but said you have to pay to come to this premiere party?
C
Yes. Ghulnessa, who will be on the show tomorrow, it was told us that she is going to put something together for everyone. And the contribution request was $100 a head. And it was gonna be at her ex husband current business partner's home, who's very wealthy. And we went there and it was.
B
Okay. So the party happened.
A
I wouldn't have paid.
B
So did you pay?
C
I paid $200. I paid $200 to go to this party.
B
Okay. And I'm sure it was incredible. Cause if someone's charging $100 a head, the food must have been amazing.
A
Catering, bartenders.
C
I sent Kian the video of a bartender. There was no bartender.
B
Was there a caterers?
C
There was no caterers. But they ordered food from this Persian lesbian establishment.
B
Nothing wrong with a lesbian.
C
There's nothing wrong with a lesbian. But allegedly this lesbian was with one of someone. Yes. Oh.
A
In house catering.
B
Okay. What. What was offered?
C
There was food wise beef kebab, chicken kebab, rice salad and some prepackaged like fruit.
A
Not prepackaged.
C
You know, like the pre cut up food and the like vegetables.
B
Was it a big spread?
C
It was eh. For the amount of money collected, yes.
B
It was no caviar, no lobster, no filet, no bartender. Did you make your own Drinks.
C
I didn't even have any drinks. I had a Diet Coke.
B
Okay, and then did you have to get it yourself or did someone say.
C
I got it for myself?
B
Oh, wow.
C
Yeah.
B
Okay.
C
And then the person whose home we were at requested us to sing a Happy Birthday to his young daughter before we got the party song.
A
So you were entertainment, too?
C
We were entertainment too. And the daughter was like, daddy, how come you're not on the picture on the cake? Cause there was like a picture of the cast on the cake. And I'm thinking, girl, your daddy ain't on the show. That's why she's not on the cake.
B
How. But big cake?
C
No, it was a small cake.
B
How many people would it serve?
C
I mean, because everyone's on a diet. It served everybody, but it was a small cake.
A
How many people were there?
C
Just the cast and one audio guy from our show and one field producer who paid.
B
Who paid to go.
C
No, wait, so. God, they didn't have to pay.
A
So. Okay, I do have.
C
That's the cake.
B
Okay. So that would serve a good eight people.
C
It's a small cake.
B
Yeah.
C
Yeah, it was a small cake.
B
So the audio guy didn't not have to pay.
C
Correct.
B
And the field producer did not have to pay.
C
Correct. And I'm sure the owner of the house whose house we were at, he probably didn't pay, and he has more money than everyone there. And it was at his house.
A
Did anybody say to Gulnessa, like, this is weird. Like, why are you.
C
She got an attitude. She had an attitude. When, first of all, there was no vegan options for my husband, who paid $100 to come to the party and then had to order food when he got home.
B
No.
C
Yes. Yeah.
A
In the words of Heather Dubrow, that is low based bullshit.
C
Like, no, that was super irritating.
B
Now, did, of course, Alex Baskin and Jen Levy from 32 Flavors show up?
C
Obviously not. And thank God. It was embarrassing.
B
Wow. Now, it looked like the screen was pretty huge. That movie screen.
C
Yeah. It was on a wall.
B
Okay. And did you like. But you liked the show?
C
I loved the show. I watched it. And I might be biased, but I don't think I am. When I watched it, I was like, ooh, that is the show I want to watch. It was fun and exciting. It moved quick. It was a great episode.
A
Now, when Glnessa hears this, is she gonna come for you? Like, are y' all gonna have issues?
B
Well, we hope so.
C
Oh, she's gonna be irritated for sure. Cause I already know she was irritated. Cause In a group chat, one of my castmates was like, hey, can we actually have a viewing party the night the episode airs? Like, maybe we can go to Soho House. And Golnessa chimed in and said, I'm not available. I'm doing lots of press that day. And I'm irritated because people were questioning me. And good luck. Cause they were hounding me about the one I set up. So I was like, okay. She's.
A
But if you have a party at your home, you foot the bill.
B
Yeah. Especially it sounds like. What was it, $500 in food, max?
C
I don't think that the food. It didn't look that way. There were some expensive bottles of alcohol. Like, there was a bottle of Blue label and some 1942. No one drank it. And I kept thinking to myself, that's gonna either stay at this rich dude's house or homegirl's gonna take it home with her. Like. Like, it just. It felt.
B
It.
C
I don't know. It felt sketch.
A
Yeah, sounds sketch.
B
Now, tomorrow is Doug's birthday party.
C
Yes.
B
Now, is Adam upset that he wasn't invited?
C
He was upset that he wasn't invited.
B
You tell him that It. From what I understand that there was. There was. There was a maximum amount of people that Doug could have, but we're gonna have a chump event. Nichelle, please come.
A
I didn't make the cut for Doug's birthday party either.
B
But I'm gonna have a chump mixer soon. Oh, Adam, of course, is always invited. And, Nichelle, we're invite you, since you're a new chump.
A
Thank you. And Big Daddy.
B
And Big Daddy. Yes.
A
He's invited.
C
Yes, yes, Big Daddy is definitely invited.
B
So, Nichelle, I think most of us know you from Entertainment Tonight. However, on your Instagram, there is a lot of dancing videos.
A
Yes.
B
And you are an incredible dancer. You're a professional dancer.
A
No, no. I just started taking dance, like, two years ago.
B
Are you serious? Yeah.
A
I was just in, like, a really weird place in life, and my girlfriend, Amanda Kloots, who was. Who is a dancer, she was a Rockette, and she's, you know, incredible. She took dance and she said, start coming with me. And I'm like, no, I don't. And she's like, no, it's gonna make you feel better. So I did. And it did. Like, definitely did.
B
And you're incredible. You're in incredible shape. Can you pretty much eat whatever you want? Because of all the cardio?
A
No, because I'm an old geriatric bride, bitch. So, no, I can't No, I. No, you know, I try to keep it pretty clean and pretty good. If I knew how to make those cinnamon rolls, I would not be eating clean or good. You know, and the good thing about me is I don't have a big sweet tooth, so that saves me. And I love to bake, so I bake for other people. But no, I try to keep it pretty clean. But the other day I did go to Taco Bell and get a Mexican pizza. Ooh, it was good. I hadn't had one in such a long time. It was delicious. Mexican pizza. No beans, sour cream on top. Delish.
B
What is your Instagram?
A
Ichelleturner.
B
So if you see Nichelle's Instagram.
A
Oh, gosh.
B
You're immediately gonna think she's a stripper.
A
She's not driving like it's hot.
B
She is a, I would say, professional dancer now. I mean, you could be onlyfans if you wanted and do really well. You wouldn't even need big Daddy.
A
I might, I listen, at this point, we might, you know, we. We could do just about anything now. But if I do believe in my head that I was in a former life on somebody's stage doing something. Yeah. Like I.
B
Well, you do have a talent of stripping. I mean. Yeah, I mean, it's just straight up stripping is what it is. It's burlesque. Right.
A
We need to bring this into our next Lifetime film. Yes, indeed. Like, she's on the stage.
B
You're right.
A
You know, she's been at the club for a while.
B
You have this talent. They should use it.
A
He comes and takes me from the.
B
Club like a Pretty women, Pretty woman situation.
A
Have you ever taken a pole class? They do. No, but I want to. I definitely want to because those ladies are strong. They are very, very strong. They're toned. Yeah. I took a private yesterday and we did. My choreographer, Marissa, she made up this dance to Rude Boy. To Rihanna's Rude Boy. It was pretty good. I might have to send that to somebody.
B
Send it to Ken.
A
Watch out, Ken. A little text later on. Sorry. Manhattan Bees. Yeah. Jamie or Courtney or Taylor or Jordan.
B
Or whoever you are now, Reza. You don't make resolutions. You make resolutions.
A
So nice.
C
Yes.
B
What are your resolutions this year?
C
My resolutions is, are to maintain this physique that I have now. And all the weight I lost for Bravocon. I'm just trying to keep it off. That's why I was in drinking at our hundred dollar party. Even though I should have taken a bottle of something home with me because I paid for it.
A
You really look great.
B
Your self control and self discipline is astonishing. Truly. Not me. It really, it's. No, it is not really.
C
I'm just like sick of being fat.
B
I mean, I can do that for three days and then I fall off the wagon.
A
Jeff was like, I'm not gonna have a pop Tart. And then she brought the cinnamon rolls.
B
She brought cinnamon rolls.
A
And you had a pornhard. But listen, because I flaked last time on you guys and I couldn't do it again because I didn't want to hear anybody's mouth. So I said I'm going to redeem myself and bring them in. They were so. And it's Shane's birthday. Oh, I forgot.
B
Happy birthday, Shane.
C
Happy birthday, Shane. I just want to say one thing and I know that this show.
B
