Wish I had my old Instagram before it got deleted. But, like, I would DM every single celebrity just like nudes.

Tana Mongeau (0:06)

I am crazy.

Trisha Paytas (0:07)

Just like, hi. And then nude.

Tana Mongeau (0:09)

As a reminder, the lyrics are redwood tree ain't hard to see.

Trisha Paytas (0:13)

What's red? That means, like, a ginger.

Moses (0:16)

No.

Trisha Paytas (0:25)

Her name is Trish. She's got the dish and all the gossips. Filthy rich, radiant Hot Topic queen is. That's what everybody thinks. She's just Trish.

Moses (0:38)

Yay.

Trisha Paytas (0:41)

Hello, and welcome to another episode of Just Trish. That's a great day. It's a great day when you start off your morning with a grilled cheese burrito not sponsored by Taco Bell. Definitely not sponsored. I burned my hands today on Taco Bell cheese sauce, but we'll get into that later. How are you?

Tana Mongeau (0:56)

I just feel like nobody knows me truly.

Trisha Paytas (1:00)

I know. Moses was like, I love your shirt. It's not your merch, though. Cause he's like, what were you doing? I was like, I was gonna talk about. Cause I wanted to get, like, you know, I wanted to do the cute little video with my TikTok shop shirt. And he's like, yeah, but people are gonna think that's your merch. You endorse it. I was like, I don't know. I just saw it on TikTok shop, and then I posted it and everyone and then other people. Cause there's, like, literally. Not kidding. There's, like, 500 shops that sell this exact same shirt. I got mine from, like, a cherry drip shop. It's not mine. You know what I mean? But I just think it's funny. Like, when you wear, like, the knockoff merch, it's kind of funny. Like, the red bubble. Whatever. I mean, like, our. Just her doesn't have my face on it. So I was like, whatever. It's kind of camp. And so I got it. But then I, like, posted it on TikTok today, and everyone's just like, I ordered a shirt like that, but it came, like, all blurry, like you can't read the words.

Tana Mongeau (1:41)

Been there before. Yeah.

Trisha Paytas (1:42)

Oh, you have?
