[Monet X Change]

Hey, it's Ryan Reynolds here for Mint Mobile. Now, I was looking for fun ways to tell you that Mint's offer of unlimited Premium Wireless for $15 a month is back. So I thought it would be fun if we made $15 bills, but it turns out that's very illegal, so there goes my big idea for the commercial. Give it a [e-mail] sl switch upfront

[Commercial/Ad Voice]

payment of $45 for three months, $90 for six months, or $180 for a 12 month plan required $15 per month equivalent to taxes and fees. Extra initial plan term only greater than 50 gigabytes. Me slow when network is busy.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

See Terms My name is Bob the Drag Queen and I'm Money Exchange and this is simply rivalry.

[Monet X Change]

On today's episode, Bob finds out about his West Indian heritage.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

We talk about award shows and we

[Monet X Change]

find out what made Bob say this.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I be at Monet's house just sitting down. Colleen comes in and starts harassing me when we're podcasting. This cat's tugging at my clothes and shit. Monet's like she's a baby. She ain't no baby. This bitch is three. And we find out what made Monet say this.

[Monet X Change]

I'm gonna call Jasmine Rice right? Oh my God, oh my God, I'm so hot I can't even die. Like it's so have you ever been

[Bob the Drag Queen]

to an award show?

[Monet X Change]

I just love when Bob gets hot. Bobby. Like, who?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

You.

[Monet X Change]

You can't put your hands out. You can't get any rest.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Because I'm just so. Because I'm just so. I'm just so amazed. But I just want to know if you've ever been to an award show.

[Monet X Change]

Of course I've been to the Glam Awards a couple times. That's the only awards I've ever been to. I've been. No, I have not been to. Yeah.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Have I ever been to a major award show? You know, I actually kind of like, lost my opportunity because of the pandemic to go to the Emmys because my show was nominated for Emmy, but I wasn't able to go because of the Ponda replay. And then I was trying to. I was supposed to go to the Glad Awards, which I won a Glad award, but I wasn't able to go because of the fucking Panini. So my two, like, big award shows that I was going to go to, I didn't get a chance because of the lockdown.

[Monet X Change]

The lockdown. Well, I kind of attended something with. Well, not virtually. Remember when we were in Florida and you attended the award show, like, virtually the critics. The critics. The creative arts MB's or some shit like that, when Nicole Byers hosting. And remember, we were in Florida and all of your We're Here people on that zoom call.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

No, that was a. That was a. That was a We're Here internal party.

[Monet X Change]

But no, but there was a war thing, and because you were. You were hoping that y' all were gonna win, and then you found out you didn't win. But it's something y' all were gonna win for.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

No, it wasn't. It was a. It was. It was the Emmys, but it wasn't actually the Emmys. I wasn't at. I wasn't at any official Emmy thing. It was just the people on We're

[Monet X Change]

Here and Octavia Spencer was there. All those people came to that thing, remember?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

No, that was. That was. That was a different event. That was something completely different. That was like a. Some sort of a fundraiser that I was invited to.

[Monet X Change]

That was.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

That was a different thing. But for the Emmys, we're here. We had our own little, like, in house moment, and we all watched Emmys together right from home.

[Monet X Change]

Right, right.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

But, I mean, award shows are moments for, like, iconic moments. Do you remember when. I think it was Marlon Brando chose to not accept his award? Can you look this up, Jacob? Marlon Brando chose to not accept his award. And instead he had an indigenous. I think it was Marlon Brando. Marlon. Hello.

[Monet X Change]

I think it was Aisha Curry.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Marlon Brando refused. Is.

[Monet X Change]

It was. Yeah, yeah.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Marlon Brando refused the Oscar for. For his role in the Godfather, and instead he sent up an indigenous woman to accept the award for him. And it was like, about. I think it was about, like, land rights and good colonizing. And this was a while. This was back in 1973. Yeah.

[Monet X Change]

I mean. And it was. It was. It was at the Oscars.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah.

[Monet X Change]

Work. You see this list of, like, iconic moments when the Oscars.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

So we can.

[Monet X Change]

Like. Or from award shows in general. Well, we're jumping right in. Right. And hot. How was your day? How you doing?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

My day was really. I mean, I travel. When you do it, when you have a travel day, the day feels disjunct. Yeah. Like you don't know when it started, when it stopped. I got here pretty early. When you drove from the east coast to the West Coast.

[Monet X Change]

I love it.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

You traveling back in time.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, it's great.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

You leave at noon. You land at 10am I don't know how the fuck happens, but you drive from the east coast to the West Coast.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, you feel drunk.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

You land this next week. You know what I mean? It is wild. You lose an entire day. So I got here pretty early, but I woke up then I realized that I woke up this morning at 5am Central, which was 3am here. So I've been up since 3am and it is now 8:50. So I've been awake for a very long time.

[Monet X Change]

You went to go get fitted for a fun little special project.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Well, not fitted. And this is not a. This isn't super secret. I can talk about this. So Alaska has this suit. I call it a meat suit. We've all seen a titty bib, like, boops request. Yeah, yeah, imagine that. But, like, pretty much the whole body, it goes in. It goes around her neck. It has boobs. It has a belly button, it has hips, and it goes down to the knees. It's a halter. And I saw her and I was like, I want this. Like, I want one of these so badly. And I also found out that you can get them tattooed.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, word. That's fierce.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Like, I can take it. I can take the meat suit to a tattoo artist and be like, tat me up.

[Monet X Change]

That's fierce.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Like, run me some tats.

[Monet X Change]

I would do that.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Right?

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, that's fierce.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Should I get my whole body just tatted, or should I just get My tattoos. Put on my actual, like, my duck.

[Monet X Change]

No, get different ones. Get, like, ones that, like, will, like. I don't know, go with the, like, you can do, like, sexy girl tattoos that really go with the curves. I'm like, oh, my God, get a fucking Rihanna under boob one.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Ah, you're obsessed with.

[Monet X Change]

That's so fierce. Do you realize that what I wear? Okay, so what? I want to piss off people. This is what People coming for me. We're not coming for me. They're like, oh, Monet's copying Rihanna. No, Rihanna wore that. So I take the picture.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

She copied you.

[Monet X Change]

No, I take the piss off.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Are you gonna go slap her?

[Monet X Change]

Oh, my God. I take the piss off. Two weeks ago. Rihanna wore it, like, two days ago. But the pits off comes out.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

But someone on Rihanna's team works at Viacom.

[Monet X Change]

But that just feels like me and Rihanna. Bitch, we're here. We both had pinstripe men's button down shirts and, like, no pants.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I also want to say, I'm not trying to take your shine, but, like, that's a thing. I know.

[Monet X Change]

I'm not saying that.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

A lot of pink and white.

[Monet X Change]

That's very specific.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

That's.

[Monet X Change]

That's very specific.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

It is more specific. Yes, but. But if it's not like. It's not like when. When Megan showed up in a. A. A pinhead drag costume after got Mick. That's. That's kind of like, all right, this one of these has influenced the other one.

[Monet X Change]

No, I don't think. I don't think they did.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

You don't think so? No, I can't tell if you're being serious.

[Monet X Change]

I don't.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Monet, the pop stars copy off of us all the time, like, non. Because their entire team is made up of gay boys who watch Drag Race. If you see, like, Megan's costume and got mad, this is no shame. Megan did not even make the costume. Someone probably on her team probably fucking pitched it to her. Who fucking knows? Megan may have been watching. Ooh, it is a drag gown. Pinhead.

[Monet X Change]

Are you sure? I thought Megan was, like, a catsuit.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

No, no, Megan's is a gown too.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, I know, but I thought. I didn't know. Was it like, just like. Just like people already making memes of the fucking.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Oh, my God, look.

[Monet X Change]

Gaga and Liza at the Oscars. Oh, my God.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Is Liza in a wheelchair?

[Monet X Change]

Yeah.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Oh, my God. I can't. I don't. That's gonna be a tough one.

[Monet X Change]

I know. Damn, Bob.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I mean, she's in a wheelchair. I Just can't believe I just this.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, oh, Will Smith apologizes like,

[Bob the Drag Queen]

oh, we're jumping back in. Okay, we'll save it until we get to that point.

[Monet X Change]

Jacob is over here.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

We're doing the one about Oscars. Babe, we gotta talk about the Oscars. Why are you saying it like that?

[Monet X Change]

We're talking the Oscars.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah, you gotta tell the white people, honey, we're talking about the Oscars.

[Monet X Change]

Have you. I mean, I remember iconic. Well, we're not talking about that. Yeah, so Rihanna and I, we're West Indian babes and we think alike is what I'm saying.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

This seems like a really big accomplishment for you. Congratulations. Why do you hate Rihanna for me? I do not hate Rihanna for. Bitch, Rihanna hates you. I don't care about Rihanna for you. I don't give a fuck about you and Rihanna.

[Monet X Change]

I love her so much.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I think Rihanna is. Is cool. But I mean, I. I don't buy lingerie. I don't. She makes.

[Monet X Change]

They're making men stuff now, but they're making harnesses and stuff.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I don't buy that stuff either. I would never. I would literally never buy to a.

[Monet X Change]

To a leather party, like, at any point.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I've been to leather parties.

[Monet X Change]

Well, like, in leather gear.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I've done that before too, with like

[Monet X Change]

a harness and stuff. What did you wear?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I have like a. I have a whole suit work.

[Monet X Change]

Did you, like, go for, like, sex stuff? Did you have sex?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

No, I don't like having sex in public places like that. But I have a suit in the other room. It's like a full body suit.

[Monet X Change]

Like a rubber one or another one?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

It's rubber. You know about it, right?

[Monet X Change]

Jacob, how are you being. Now? I can't say if you're being serious or not.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

No, I have a full rubber suit. There's also a picture. There is a picture of me. A while back, someone posted a picture of me at a latex party, and I was in this, like, latex suit and I was. Bitch, when I say miss if. I don't know, someone lent me the outfit. If I were ever to be able to get my hands on this suit today, Bitch. She would not live. That thing would not fit anywhere on my dainty little fucking body.

[Monet X Change]

I used to date this guy who was really big into leather. I just show his rubber. Oh, God.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

There's the suit. There it is.

[Monet X Change]

And what did you wear to go to.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

To a fetish party?

[Monet X Change]

And did you like. So. So you just wore it? You didn't do anything in it? Why? What is this stuff. What is this?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

On come.

[Monet X Change]

So you didn't do anything?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Latex kind of does this. You have to take care of it. I don't know how to take care of it.

[Monet X Change]

You have to just cover it in lube.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Okay, thanks. It's deteriorating already, so I'm a little late to that party made for you? No, I bought it from a sex store in San Francisco. And where a secondhand sex.

[Monet X Change]

When did you kind of give me more detail? Like, did you. Did you go to, like, did you go to play?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

You did. Not an exciting party. I just. I just went to a. To a. Like, a leather kink party, and then I left. Like, this story's not. It's not.

[Monet X Change]

You do any of the leather or. Well, you do the leather, but you do the kink.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

No, I mean, I walked around, but I didn't. I didn't do it. I didn't fool around with anyone. No, because all leather parties aren't just about, like, having sex, and I'm just about being around people who are into the kink scene. And I'm not really into. I'm also just not really into the scene, to be honest.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, I mean, and I, I, I, I know a lot of people who are into leather stuff like that. I never really. I never got into leather. There you go.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yako put on the ground this.

[Monet X Change]

I, I used to be this guy who was really big into, and I'd say he's, like, into it. Like, for real. For real. And I just was like, I'm not that girl. I can't. Like, this is, like, stuff that he would, like, send me.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

How long ago is this? Years. These are from him? Yeah, that's him.

[Monet X Change]

Mm.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Is he from another country?

[Monet X Change]

Yes.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

From. Is he from the largest island in the world?

[Monet X Change]

Yes. There we go.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

How do you know? Is he very tall? Yes.

[Monet X Change]

Bob, shut the fuck up.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

There's such a thing as race chaser and shut the fuck up. No, I'm kidding. You tell me about him. You told me about him a long time ago. Those race chasers. Honey sent me those same pictures.

[Monet X Change]

You are so silly.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

What would you. Is there, like. Is there, like, an award show you like? That's your dream to go to an award show?

[Monet X Change]

That's my dream to go to. Would probably be the Grammys. Ah, because the Grammys. Because of the fashion and just the allure of the.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I mean, the Oscars are the fashion.

[Monet X Change]

No, but you dress differently, though. The Oscars are a bit more conservative. I love the fashion of the Grammys. I love that people can choose, like, dress up. But Oscars people are always dressed up. No one's really casual at the Grammys. You can be, like, casual, like, dressy. You know what I mean? And I really like that. That really speaks to me. I would love to go to the Grammys. I would love to go to the Grammys.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

It would be embarrassing. You and Rihanna show up in the same thing or iconic like Monet.

[Monet X Change]

Stop. You do such a bad.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

What's in your accent, Monet? I'm doing. I'm just. I don't know what. I'm just. I'm just doing a terrible Jamaican accent.

[Monet X Change]

You should know, bitch.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

You won't do. I keep asking you to do one. You literally will refuse to do it.

[Monet X Change]

I've done it many times on here.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Then do it again. Help me.

[Monet X Change]

Which one is not very particular?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Then do it like. I edited a video full of all your aunts. It is particular. Is it? I edited a whole birthday video with all your aunties.

[Monet X Change]

You think so?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yes.

[Monet X Change]

I don't. I don't hear it.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Kevin. They'd be like, kevin, this is your aunt. I am so proud of how you've come so far. It's like a whole thing.

[Monet X Change]

I don't hear it, though.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

But there is an accent work. I'm asking you. You don't think there's a West Indian accent?

[Monet X Change]

There is a West Indian woman. I don't know what I. I can't, like, put my.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

You make fun of me because I can't do it. You can't do it either.

[Monet X Change]

Yes, I can. I can do it, but I can do it. Give me. I need something to say. I need something to read and just

[Bob the Drag Queen]

start talking to me. I don't know.

[Monet X Change]

I know. I need to, like, read something.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Read by Marlon Brando declining the best actor. There we go.

[Monet X Change]

Marlon Brando declines best actor at the Oscars. History.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

And I can't confirm or deny because I don't know what a fucking West Indian accent sounds like. But you don't sound like Rihanna. That I know.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, the Bajan accent is very specific. Bajan, Trini, Jamaicans, they're all very different.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I have nothing to contribute to this conversation. I don't know anything about Caribbean accents.

[Monet X Change]

That's so crazy. You don't care. I mean, you might have some. Some West Indian blood in you. I don't know.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah, you don't know. Positive. Positive. I don't have West Indian blood in

[Monet X Change]

me because you did my 23andMe.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

No, I did not do. Also West Indian blood Is black people African?

[Monet X Change]

Yes.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Black people aren't indigenous to the west ind. They.

[Monet X Change]

But they may trace you back to. Or you. You may have some air wax up in here.

[Commercial/Ad Voice]

I'm not.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I'm not from the West Indies. I have no blood in the West Indies.

[Monet X Change]

Why are you doing this?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Because you love to go. You're the queen of. You never know. Yeah. You never. Yeah, I know that. I'm not that. I have no West Indian. How.

[Monet X Change]

Because of my 23andMe.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

It was before 23. It was back when they did the old ones. It was. I forget what they were called before 23andMe. There was one before. It was like. It was like myheritage.com or something. I cannot remember ancestry.com or something.

[Monet X Change]

Ancestry.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Years ago. They didn't want to. And I. I just. I guarantee you I'm not from. Why you.

[Monet X Change]

What is this hand thing you do nowadays every time?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Well, you keep trying to.

[Monet X Change]

Either you. Either you a teacher.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I took my hands a lot.

[Monet X Change]

Are you this.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I've always talked with my hands. Since you've known me, I've done this.

[Monet X Change]

So what do you mean these days, this is new.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

And I'm saying it because you keep trying to con, like, convince me that I might be West Indian and I'm not. I am not West Indian.

[Monet X Change]

Why do you hate West Indian?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

It's just you Monet.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah. I mean, I would also. Back in the day, I would have loved to go to something like the MTV Movie Awards or. I'm not trying to. I don't think they're played out. They're just not as interesting to me anymore. Maybe because I'm a little older and I used to watch it when I was younger, like when I was 12, 13, 14, 15. As a young. The preteen and teen, I used to love those award shows.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Is there an award show that you would cancel everything to go name two or three awards or you would cancel

[Monet X Change]

everything to go to Grammys, Oscar, Emmys

[Bob the Drag Queen]

and name an award show? You'd be like, if I'm free, they're gonna be watching Viacom, is why. And you work at Viacom, nigga. So if you say mtv. Yes, you do work at Viacom. You gotta wake up early in the morning to go to Viacom.

[Monet X Change]

As a matter of fact, that's on Wednesday.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Oh.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, my God. We can say anything. Okay. I guess we just. No. One that would say, I don't know. The one that I don't know, like, the Critics Choice Awards.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

That's a big deal.

[Monet X Change]

Is It.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yes. That is a huge award show. I thought you were going to say, like, fucking the billboards.

[Monet X Change]

That's a. I don't know.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

You afraid to say vodka?

[Monet X Change]

I will say. You're afraid to say van Va. You know what? You know what? The Glam Awards, Jacob, is so messy.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I'll be hosting the GLAAD awards this April 2nd.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, yeah. You, Eureka and Shangela.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yes, we are.

[Monet X Change]

Are you excited?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I am excited. The short answer is yes, I'm excited. Well, why.

[Monet X Change]

Why is it long and short? The answer is just your excitement.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Because there's not, like, a lot. There is. It's. It's. It's not like the Grammys are Oscars. So there's not a lot of preparation

[Monet X Change]

leading up to it.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

There's not a lot of. We rehearsed, like, one day before, and then the next day we're just hosting an entire award show. And I'm not great with other people. With other people. When it's me by myself, I even. I'm by myself. I could muster up a slap from Will Smith. But if it's. That's also the thing about me, too. Like, I know that, like, I make jokes. We both make jokes about people a lot. Do we deserve to get slapped?

[Monet X Change]

Is that what you're thinking about?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I mean, it's what I'm thinking about in this. In this very second. I just. I just don't think that. I mean, at some point we're going to have to get into the topic, which is the main. I mean, we're talking about award show.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

There's like, two people, honestly. You and Peppermint. Yeah, I can work like. We have just been doing it for so long that we can just roll with the punches and Pixie as well, but everyone else. And if Frosty Flakes unretired from Drag,

[Monet X Change]

[Bob the Drag Queen]

back into the rogue. We haven't done that shit in eight years.

[Monet X Change]

Shedrick.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Hallelujah.

[Monet X Change]

Anyway, Ms. Bob, now I need to know.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Well, we're also scripted, so I'm like, I don't. It's just gonna be. I wish. I wish that we had more time to, like, prepare for it, but I understand why we don't. We all have. We all have. We're all very busy. Eureka just got out of rehab. She posted about it. Yeah, Eureka just got out of rehab. I was like, is this like an inside of Tea mom and spilling. Not like you out in Queen Latifah. It's.

[Monet X Change]

I did not out Queen Latifah.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

She gonna come slap her. Girlfriend gonna come slap you. Keep my wife's name.

[Monet X Change]

Get to the meat and potatoes. So Bob and I, we were. Sorry, wait, wait.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Awards. Also awards that we want. The number one is your number one award. A Grammy.

[Monet X Change]

I would love to have a Grammy. I really would. My accomplishments in music.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

What Grammy?

[Monet X Change]

What Grammy? Oh, I would do. Because I think they scrubbed gender from the Grammys as well, right?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

They've. The Grammys have never been gendered.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, they never been gendered.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Oscars are gender, which I think they need to be ungendered.

[Monet X Change]

I would love a best new artist Artist of the year.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Mm. How do you constitute a new artist? You already have an ep, I think

[Monet X Change]

maybe I don't know, because they don't do breakthrough artists, do they?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I don't know.

[Monet X Change]

You don't look it up. Like, what, what, what are, what do

[Bob the Drag Queen]

you remember, speaking of Grammy moments for

[Monet X Change]

the Grammys, do they have, like, breakthrough? Like, what are the categories? There's.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah. Best New Artist, I believe, Best New Artist. One of Kanye West's first stunts was when he was nominated for Best New Artist or Breakthrough Artist at the Grammys or something. It may have been the American Music Awards. And he's. He's up against all these people. And they announced all the categories, the nominees. And before they have announced the winner, Kanye west just starts walking to the stage.

[Monet X Change]

You work. He's always been that bitch.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

And they announced the winner wasn't him, was Gretchen Wilson. He is Wilson. I'm a redneck woman I ain't no high class brawn I'm just a product of my raising I say hey, y' all and get home Anyway, so he started walking up to the stage. American Music Awards 2004. That's. That's the one. What? It was American music. Yeah. He started walking up to the stage and Gretchen Wilson won the award instead of him. And then he kind of like. It was kind of the beginning. Well, that was also after George Bush doesn't care about black people. He said that George Bush doesn't care about bipolar. Was, was, was, was Kanye West's like, first big, like, stunt. It was on a live telethon.

[Monet X Change]

You better.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

And it was after Hurricane Katrina. And then Kanye west just said, george Bush does not care about black people.

[Monet X Change]

He was there, like one of the celebrities taking calls.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

They were on. He was on camera with the guy with like, the mate. With the host. And then he just said it. And then it became, became this whole meme. George Bush doesn't care about black people.

[Monet X Change]

And then obviously Kanye west and Taylor Swift was another one.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Kanye West, Yeah. Getting that was at the VMAs. Was it the VMAs where he got up and said, I'm gonna let you finish. But Beyonce had one of the most iconic videos of all time. Of all time. And Toilet Swift. Tall ass.

[Monet X Change]

You said Toilet Swift. Toilet Swift.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

No Taylor Swift looking. Have you seen that clip of that picture of Taylor Swift with Bruno Mars? No. Do you know how tall Bruno Mars is? He.

[Monet X Change]

I want to say 5:2 about that.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Taylor Swift, he's 6:1. And Bruno Mars, do you know how tall Vladimir Putin is?

[Monet X Change]

Not interested. Jacob, want to bring down the room. Jacob, what's that, baby?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Vladimir Putin is the same Height as me, Vladimir Putin is 56 or 5 5. Isn't that wild?

[Monet X Change]

He has a fucking Napoleon conquest girl. But yeah.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Anyway, there's this great picture of Taylor Swift with Bruno Mars, and she is just towering. She is the stallion.

[Monet X Change]

Taylor Thee stallion. I mean, now that you're going to the. Are you gonna plan any stunts at the GLAAD Awards?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

No, no, no, I wouldn't do that. That's a glass. Not when I'm hosting, bitch. I can't out stunt Will Smith. Okay, we want to slap a shadow Shangela.

[Monet X Change]

We always say we're not getting to it. And literally, it's baller brand that you searched. It's all right. I believe you. I believe you. I believe. I believe he's taller.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I believe he's taller than her. No, she's taller than him.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, I believe. I really believe her.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I don't think you believe it, but yeah.

[Monet X Change]

Stunted Awards are not new.

[Commercial/Ad Voice]

And.

[Monet X Change]

And we need to get to it because we keep on.

[Commercial/Ad Voice]

We have.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Well, okay, the reason why I'm not getting to it, because we have a Patreon exclusive where we react to it in real time. So if you want to see me, Monet reacting to the Will Smith Chris Rock debacle. Chris the Rockabacal. Yeah, you can go to our Patreon. And that's our. Our real time.

[Monet X Change]

As we are. As we. As the things came in, we literally

[Bob the Drag Queen]

sat down to do a podcast. And then Kamika. Kamika text Monet. And then we're like, we got to see what the. But there's also the infamous titty grab at the VMAs where Diana Ross. Diana Ross grabbed Lil Kim's titty and she gave it up. Apparently, Mary J. Blige was really upset by that.

[Monet X Change]

Why? Like, because of.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

She said. She said that she embarrassed Lil Kim. She said Lil Kim was, like, smiling, but she was not happy about it.

[Monet X Change]

Really?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah. She just got her titty fondled on stage and she goes. She was like. Just because she's dressed like that does not mean she wanted her titty grabbed. And apparently Mary J. Blige was like, really? I want to see if I can find Mary J. Bl. This computer gonna take forever. Mary J. Blige.

[Monet X Change]

I didn't know that.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

What's Diana Ross Ross? Because. Because it was like, if. I think she felt like it was kind of like a slut shaming moment for Lil Kim. Like, the older generation kind of like shaming the younger generation for dressing how they wanted. So according to the thegrio.com or the rap.com or source. His source. Apparently Mary J. Vice was, quote, pissed when Diana Ross touched Lil Kim's pasty and she felt like she disrespected Lil Kim.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, I mean, I can see that.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Any. Any. Were there any award show moments that you remember? You were like, oh, like, you were like. Like you were watching the award show and you were like, wait, what? Wait, what?

[Monet X Change]

The one. I was. I remember watching it. I think I was maybe like 14 or 13 when that guy climbed. Do you remember when the VMAs. It was a year. They had those, like, tall things.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah. Who was that guy again?

[Monet X Change]

He was enraged against the machine or some rock group and he climbed. I remember I was, like, watching it as it happened. I was like, what is this nigga doing climbing on top of the stuff.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I do remember, obviously, when Madonna, Britney turned and kissed Britney.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Which is weird.

[Monet X Change]

I watched that live because that was when I was in my Britney.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I was in Stan also. Forget that Britney. She also turned and kissed Christina immediately after.

[Monet X Change]

But because at that time, it was Christina versus Britney.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

But also Britney got the first kiss.

[Monet X Change]

Exactly. So it made it seem like Madonna did it because she felt bad or she was obligated to. But it was like Britney was the one she wanted to kiss and Christina was just. I guess I will.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

It wasn't a song like, come on over here. I got something in the show.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, yeah. It was me against the music with Britney Spears and Madonna. Come over here. I got some.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Hey, Britney. You say you want to lose control. Come over here. I got something in that show. I feel like Madonna really passed the baton to Britney, but I don't think that happened with Lady Gaga. I would have. We would have loved to have seen.

[Monet X Change]

Oh.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

The only collab we got with Lady Gaga. Madonna was on snl.

[Monet X Change]

What did they do?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

They did, like, a small sketch together on snl.

[Monet X Change]

I don't remember that.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

But we really.

[Monet X Change]

Brittany wasn't that girl. Britney wasn't like Britney was. It was not a Madonna. She was not, like, pushing boundaries like Madonna. Gaga is that, like, Gaga is, like, wearing meat dresses the thing. And Gaga is, like, being like, like, like, like, like really wild.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Gaga was a game changer. Gaga really changed pop music, but Britney's not that girl. Britney changed pop music.

[Monet X Change]

But I'm saying.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

And she wasn't as provocative as Lady Madonna was very, very provocative for her time. What? Jacob? Oh, she was. She was very. She. Yeah. Lady Gaga is much more provocative than Britney Spears was. She was a provocateur. As the children say. I do remember. Who is that? Who is that singer? He's a rock and roll singer. He always wears a bandana because I think he actually bald. And he. And he was at the Tony Awards. No one's gonna remember this. Brett. Kid Rock. No, Brett.

[Monet X Change]

Brettman Rock.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Something. He.

[Commercial/Ad Voice]

He.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

He has a song in School of Rock. Not School of Rock. Rock of Ages, baby. He has a song in Rock of Ages. And I think he was also in the Surreal Life too.

[Monet X Change]

I think it was Bretman Rock.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

No, I think he was also.

[Monet X Change]

That's the influencer boy.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah, I think he was also in the Surreal Life as well. Anyway, they were doing this big opening, like this compilation in the beginning of the Tony Awards. I remember this is the year that Eliza Minnelli sang the World Goes Round, when she, like, revived that on the Tony Awards. And the cast in nine to five was there. Dolly Parton was there. And then School, and then Rock of Ages came out. But this guy, this rock and roll singer, and he like, he hit his face on a piece of moving scenery, like everything was just moving. And he just like, face planted into this, like, massive piece of scenery. I don't know why that always sticks out in my head as like a moment from an award show that I'm like, that's embarrassing.

[Monet X Change]

But I mean, those are like the music. I feel like the music award shows is always something that goes on. I knew it was something. Brett.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yes. I was like, brett. Yeah, yeah.

[Monet X Change]

But something that always happens at the music award shows like this, the SAGs, the screen actor, Gill and Sky. The same thing. Critic choice. Crazy stuff doesn't always happen to you like that. Except for.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

No, not always.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, I'm saying. But I'm saying it happens more so the music ones than like, the acting ones.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Do you remember when they announced La La Land for winning best film?

[Monet X Change]

Oh, yes. That was a moment.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

That was.

[Monet X Change]

That was a moment. Cause it was against Moonlight.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

So what happened was it was Faye

[Monet X Change]

Dunaway and the guy. Was it Alan? The guy?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

No, it wasn't Alan.

[Monet X Change]

All white dude. It was. Who was it? It was the old white dude. I know he was.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah, it was an old white man space down away. And this older white guy and he opened up the thing and I think he had the wrong envelope or something because it had the wrong category. There was something on it. And he read it. Who?

[Monet X Change]

Warren Beatty.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Warren Beatty. He looked at it and he was like. He was confused. And Faye Dunaway thought he was doing a bit. She's like oh, he's doing her thing. So Faye took it, and she was like, La La Land. La La Land. And then La La Land ran up on stage, and then they were, like, cheering and applauding. And then at some point, someone who. Someone from the Academy was like, no, nigga, you did not. You fully lost. You 100% lost. It was actually moonlight. Moonlight. And then by that point, Warren Beatty's still there. Faye Dunaway is in the car headed back home. Girl. Faye Dunaway is nowhere to be seen. Miss Mama Miss Thing. Miss Mama Miss Thing. And. And that. That was. That felt embarrassing. Oh, yeah. That was the same year that Steve Harvey accidentally announced Columbia Miss Columbia Phil.

[Monet X Change]

Award show was that same year.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

It was not. It was Miss Miss Universe. He accidentally. I think it was the same year he accidentally. Accidentally announced Columbia over Philippines, I think.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, the winner was.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

No, maybe it was.

[Monet X Change]

No, the winner was Philippines, and he announced Colombia. Colombia. But it was Philippines that won. Yeah.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah, that's. That feels. That must be so embarrassing. He got to keep his job. Yes. He's a fucking accident.

[Monet X Change]

Should he be fired and shot between the eyes because he made a mistake?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I didn't say shot between the eyes. There are some accidents. There are some accidents where you lose your job. Do you think.

[Monet X Change]

Do you think that that's. Do you think that that's worthy of losing your job?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I think in the Miss Universe, yeah.

[Monet X Change]

I don't think so.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I do. It's like the whole. The whole show leads up to this point.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, but he's a fudgeing human being, okay?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

People make mistakes and get fired all the time.

[Monet X Change]

So, I mean, I don't think so. I think that you apologize and that's it. You're done.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

That woman is. No, that woman is embarrassed forever.

[Monet X Change]

Who is she? But she's not embarrassed. He's embarrassed.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

She. She's embarrassed.

[Monet X Change]

I don't think so.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

When you get the crown and you think you've won. It wasn't that long.

[Monet X Change]

It was.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

You got the crown.

[Monet X Change]

Did she.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah, she got the crown.

[Monet X Change]

Even if she got the crown, I don't think that's.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

You don't know if she wasn't embarrassed.

[Monet X Change]

You're assuming. I don't think. Okay. You're assuming that she is in essay.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

That feels like a very safe assumption.

[Monet X Change]

Not for me. I think that you maybe just thinking, like, oh, my. Like, I think the moment you're like, oh, my God, I won, you're like, oh, that sucks. I don't think you're like, oh, my God, I'm So embarrassed.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I can't believe that. I think it's all that. I don't think you've ever.

[Monet X Change]

I don't think so. I have competed, and I've won three times, honey. Miss Hell's Kitchen, honey.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Miss Gay Caribbean, honey.

[Monet X Change]

And I've won RuPaul's Draggery, so. Yes, I know. Three times. How many patches have you won?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Not Miss Gay Caribbean. Oh. Why is.

[Monet X Change]

Why is. Why is Miss Gay Caribbean.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Excuse me. You were the only Caribbean in the pageant. You were going against Jasmine Rice.

[Monet X Change]

No, that was a different pageant. Yeah, it was all. I can't believe you are trying to. To fucking denigrate.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I won RuPaul's Drag Race, okay? I won Miss Sobriety.

[Monet X Change]

Please, Please.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

What?

[Monet X Change]

So Miss.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Oh, Miss. Miss. Yes.

[Monet X Change]

Saint Lucia, honey. Caribbean.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

We had.

[Monet X Change]

These are pageant bitches from different Caribbean islands, honey.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Okay, I'm gonna let y' all know. Cause Monet's beefing up Miss Caribbean. Like it was. Like it was. Let me tell you what it is, okay? Please tell me what it is. Miss Caribbean. Monet's acting like they're flying girls in from St. Lucia and from Jamaica and from Haiti.

[Monet X Change]

I never said that. There are different people representing Caribbean islands.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

It is people representing islands. And the thing is, a lot of times, especially in New York City, most of the girls representing the islands aren't even from the cause. That's how. Jasmine Rice. Did Jasmine Rice not compete in the

[Monet X Change]

same pageant later on? Later on. Yes, she did. She was mistreated.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

And this bitch is from fucking New Jersey. She is a Korean from New Jersey. And so it's people that. You don't have to actually be from the islands. And you do it. And the talent pool is not. Excuse me.

[Monet X Change]

First of all. First of all, one of the ones.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

You know what?

[Monet X Change]

Let's take a break. Let's take a break. Cause I. Ooh, ooh, I'm getting hot. Let's take a break.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

And we're back. We could call any New York girl right now. Ask about the validity of the Missouri hat.

[Monet X Change]

The one that I competed against. Her name was.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Must be fierce.

[Monet X Change]

She is fierce. She's won Continental. And she. She won Continental. Oh, my God. Her name is Song with a G. She's like, Jasmine. I'm going to call Jasmine Rice right now. I'm going to call Jasmine Rice right.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Oh, my God.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, my God. I'm so hot. I can't even. I can't even die. Like, I'm so hot.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

And she won Continental.

[Monet X Change]

She won Continental. Name is like, Gruyere. Or something with a G. She's fierce.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Not cheese. Now you just naming Jesus Gouda, gruyere, garbanzo bean, something like that.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, Jasmine, come on. Of course you're not going to answer the phone. She probably mad. She probably, like Bob gonna talk me about Jesus again and make me.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

She joined my life. She. She called me and said, I want to talk about Jesus. Just to be clear, I did not lure her in. She called me and said, I want to talk about Jesus. I would like to talk to you about Jesus. Answering one is also failing to mention that.

[Monet X Change]

Is Monet winning? Isn't he winning? I think she did represent grenada.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Position number two is 1,059.

[Monet X Change]

Is this the skinny?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

That's enough.

[Monet X Change]

Hold on, hold on.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Let me hear my name. What? What? What, honey? It's so good.

[Monet X Change]

Just as sweet as St. Lucia.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Not when they have an accent. Not when they all of a sudden having an accent. Where's that bitch you have accent off ebay. It feels good at St. Lucia. Fake bitch. You ain't got no. Why you accent come from, though? Wait, where did that accent come from?

[Monet X Change]

Oh, my God.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Whoa.

[Monet X Change]

I didn't j. Where did you find that? Jacob is wild, yo. Heck, see, they go. Bob with a sneaky little boyfriend, pulling up a little. Little video.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

You.

[Monet X Change]

You.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

You told Jacob, play it. Play more. I want to hear my name. It feel good at St. Lucia. You are wild. I don't know where the little accent came from. You try to crank it up because what? No fucking Caribbean did the basket. You had to really click, click.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, my God.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

You got around the phone with your auntie and like, click. Keep. Keep the accent.

[Monet X Change]

Keep the accent.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Keep the accent. Okay.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, my God.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

No.

[Monet X Change]

Anyway, so award shows. Okay, so you're hosting GLAAD Awards. What are the three that you would cancel any hello High water to go

[Bob the Drag Queen]

to Emmy's Grammys and Oscars for sure. And you know, in my mind, I really want to Emmy right now because I really feel. I really feel like I'm this close. Like, in my mind, I'm. I'm in my mind, getting an Oscar feels like something I could do, but it feels a little out of reach to me. But getting an Emmy feels like something that I could feasibly do within the next year. That's. That's how I feel in my heart.

[Monet X Change]

I love that. I think you can too.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

And I'm like. Because. Because my. My show was nominated for Emmy one time. I was not nominated for an Emmy. I do have a Glad Award and That's. That's not. That's not nothing. You know what I mean?

[Monet X Change]

You have an egg.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

What? An egg. What does that mean?

[Monet X Change]

If you get an Emmy, you have a Glide Award.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

If I get one more. Glad I have an egg girl. Yeah. If I don't get a Grammy and I get an Oscar time, like, I have a Glide, but I gotta eat. Got Eglot.

[Monet X Change]

Eglot. Eglot Girl.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

But, yeah, I mean, so that's why I kind of feel like I could. Like, I could. There's. There is a world where I could win an Enemy this year. I actually think that here is better than season one.

[Monet X Change]

So wait, did y' all find out if you got. When you find out if you got nominated for season two?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

They haven't announced Amy nomination. I think nomination come out in, like, July.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, work.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

They announced them in July. So I'm going to be sitting there like, bated breath and hook last. So our first year, we lost to. We were up against. No, we were up against Cheer. Cheer. Yeah, Cheer And. And Untucked were the big shows. We were up against, and we lost to Cheer. The next year we're here, and Cheer did not do a season in that season of Emmys. So Untucked didn't have as big a competition, and Untucked one.

[Monet X Change]

Got it.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

And this year, Cheers back.

[Monet X Change]

Got it.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Cheers Cheer is back again. So they might be nominated again. Although there is some controversy surrounding Cheers.

[Monet X Change]

But one of the good people, one of the.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

One of the. One of the. The. One of the participants in the documentary or the docu series, it was, I think, accused of, like, sexting with children.

[Monet X Change]

Got it.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

And, like, grooming. I don't know. I don't know if he was convicted, but he was accused of grooming children with, like, sexting and stuff with, like, a child. So maybe that'll taint their. Their chances.

[Monet X Change]

What?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I wasn't saying excited. I was just saying I feel like having a child predator in your show might taint your chances at winning and winning an Emmy, possibly. You don't think that's a possibility?

[Monet X Change]

I think so. What if one day you and I get to co host the Oscars? What if one day I think we

[Bob the Drag Queen]

close the Grammys, you and me?

[Monet X Change]

We sure could. That'll be so fun.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Because I feel like that would make

[Monet X Change]

the most sense for it has Amy Schumer. So if you co host the Oscars, it means you've probably been nominated before or won.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah, probably.

[Monet X Change]

Like Amy Schumer, Wanda Sykes.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I don't think Amy Schumer has an

[Monet X Change]

Oscar, but maybe she's been nominated.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Can we find out if Amy Schumer have been nominated?

[Monet X Change]

She's hosting it this year. Wanda Sykes and Regina hall, all three of them have maybe at least been nominated.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Thank God Amy Schumer or Regina hall didn't fucking make that joke. Regina King. Screw Regina King in it.

[Monet X Change]

Regina Hall.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Regina King is the lady from Watchmen.

[Monet X Change]

From Ray. Yeah.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Wait, I thought she was hosting this year.

[Monet X Change]

No.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah, clearly not following me.

[Monet X Change]

Regina hall brand up a scary movie. Amy Schumer and Wanda Sykes are all three co hosting.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I don't know why I thought it was Jenna King.

[Monet X Change]

So you don't need to be nominated. We can be. We can be up in here.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

You know, honestly, I. I have thought to myself, I would love to get on the red carpet at the office. I feel like I should be working the red carpet.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, so we. So we. So all of like.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Well, and I would rap for real. I would be talking shit.

[Monet X Change]

Ours. Our. One of our influencer friends, Heartthrob Rob, is. Is at the Oscars this year. And a bunch of the TikTok influencers are. Are on the red carpet for the Oscars. Yeah.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

And Heartthrob Rob has a. A video of Will Smith screaming, keep

[Monet X Change]

my wife on art.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Rob.

[Monet X Change]

Rob's Instagram right now. Well, this is. By the time y' all see this is going to be gone, but yeah, bitch. And he's like, this is not a joke. It really happened. And gag. What if. What is all a really elaborate.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

What if it's all Chris Rock? Chris. Will Smith. When I do that, Chris Rock might. Will Smith would not do that.

[Monet X Change]

How you know.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

It's just Will Smith. He doesn't seem to. Clearly he doesn't have that kind of. That kind of sense of humor. And it just doesn't seem. I mean, in the words of Monet, you never know. I mean, you. You will. You never know anything. You will literally. You never know.

[Monet X Change]

Pot, kettle.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

What do I say? You never know.

[Monet X Change]

You're like. Like Monet. All I'm saying is you'll go to explain your thing, like what? I can't remember right now.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I really try to rely on like logic and reasoning and Monet's relies on like the. The 1% chance. You never know. You know, when you grow up as 1%, you tend to rely on the 1%.

[Monet X Change]

That's just true.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

That was a really good one, dude. I ignore how great that was.

[Monet X Change]

It's on the top 5.5%. Honey.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

That was A really good joke. I would like you to acknowledge how good that was.

[Monet X Change]

God.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

All right, we gotta talk about the thing now. So I posted a.

[Monet X Change]

Let me see my.

[Commercial/Ad Voice]

What?

[Monet X Change]

I posted.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I posted a Twitter poll that said, do y' all think Will Smith was wrong? I posted it 56 minutes ago. It now has 22,000 votes, and 31% of people say, yes, he was wrong. 35% of people say, no, he was not wrong. And 34% of people say a third.

[Monet X Change]

A third, A third.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

It's complicated. So it's roughly.

[Monet X Change]

It's even.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

It's very, very even.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

And I really. So we did a Patreon exclusive, and if you all want to check it out, check me and Monet's live reaction to seeing Will Smith slap Chris Rock. And there's also this, like, one Japanese coverage of the Oscars that doesn't cut the audio. It shows Chris Rock being like, I just. Will Smith just slapped the shit out of me. And he's, like, trying really hard to recover, and he's telling Will Smith. He's like, okay, I'll. I will. I will stop. I will not say your wife's name anymore.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah. So I posted on my thing, I said, willard Smith. That's his real name. What the actual fuck, man? And then his middle name was.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Oh, his name was Willard.

[Monet X Change]

Willard.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Is that Willard?

[Monet X Change]

Jada calls him Willard on. On Red Table Talk.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I'm afraid to fucking say her name out loud, bitch. I'm gonna get uppercut.

[Monet X Change]

And the ones on People. People on my thing, people are. It is 50, 50 too. Some people are saying, hashtag toktomasculinity. Someone said, literally what you're thinking? Can't wait to hear. Oh. On Civil Rivalry, someone said he understood the assignment as a husband to defend his wife. RuPaul on the next season challenge. Bring back the wait.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Read it without laughing, bitch. It's not funny.

[Monet X Change]

I just saw RuPaul next season. I just imagine RuPaul just laughing. So funny. Dude, that are funny. Someone said he did what needed to be done. Someone said, I wish I was able to scream, do it again. Someone said, man, listen, if my person isn't ready to defend me like this after I slept with someone else and they made a song that let everyone know they're in love with me. Nevermind. I don't know what that means, but

[Bob the Drag Queen]

yeah, I think that's what they're saying. Like, if my man won't go slap Chris Rock on international television, I don't want him very.

[Monet X Change]

I guess, yes, it's Pretty split on mind. People like, yes, no. Yes, no,

[Bob the Drag Queen]

y'. All. It's wild.

[Narrator/Advertiser]

Yeah.

[Commercial/Ad Voice]

I mean.

[Monet X Change]

And again, I just. I mean, I. This is pretty much the. This not. Excuse me. Chris Rock should not be making. Okay, so what it is. Jada Pinkett Smith suffers from alopecia. And the joke that Chris Rock made was, I can't wait to see you in GI Jane 2. Yeah. And then apparently, Jada Pinkett made like a. She rolled her eyes and she shook her head, being displeased with the joke. And then from there, Will Smith saw this reaction from his wife that he got up and slapped him.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Part of me is like, what is going on at the Smith house? Like, is this me or. I'm literally afraid to say anything. The Smiths are always in something. No, it's just the one. They put their business out in the street with Red Table Talk.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah. It's just the one thing. Red Table Talk and her. Jada had the entanglements with the actor, the singer. I don't know his name, but I think it's been like, August Alcino.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I think it's been more than just one time. Like, there's, like, stuff going on. Like, they just. So it seems like the Smiths, because they make their lives public through Red Table Talk. People are often kind of like, there's just kind of drama going on at the Smith house.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

And

[Monet X Change]

it just seems a little crazy to, like, get up and like, slap this man on national television, international Internet. Everyone is seeing it like. Like digesting this and just looks crazy. Like, he just. He, like, slapped him. And Chris Rock was stunned. And, like, at first he was laughing and he was walking up there because obviously he didn't move.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

He didn't go to protect.

[Monet X Change]

He didn't think Chris Wright.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

He. He probably thought to himself, there's no way on God's green earth. Will Smith. That would have been the. He probably thought he would, like, do a little bit or. Or something.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah. But it was like. It was like a fucking WWE slap. Like a. And his face went over. Damn.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Damn.

[Monet X Change]

Is you're. The way you're looking at me. The way your reaction.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

He said.

[Monet X Change]

And his face goes over and he back and he's like, will Smith just slapped. Smacked me on national tv. Whatever he said. And then Will Smith. Will Smith's gold walks back to his seat calmly citizenship. And said, keep my wife's name out your mouth. And Chris Rock is like. He's like, keep my wife's name out your mouth.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

What do you say? It Was just a joke about gi.

[Monet X Change]

Keep my wife's name out your mouth.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I will.

[Monet X Change]

And he can't even.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Like.

[Monet X Change]

He's so flustered, and he can't even get his.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I will. Willard.

[Monet X Change]

And then he's like. And then tonight, we're gonna give a documentary. Sorry, we're gonna give an Oscar. He can't even get his thoughts. He's like. So, like, what the fuck just happened to me on television? This is gonna be talked about forever. Forever. And now this is going to follow both of them forever.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Every show Chris Rock does from here until the day he dies, he's going to have to address this.

[Monet X Change]

And he's gonna have to. He needs to do a Santa special and just make jokes about that

[Bob the Drag Queen]

he slapped again. I don't think Chris Rock wants to do it.

[Monet X Change]

That joke's about. With Jada. But jokes about him getting slashed.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

He's afraid to say. He. He's like, cancel my will. I don't even want a will at this point. He's like, I don't want the color jade in my house. I don't want nobody named Smith around me. He's scared to watch Chris Rock. Probably scared to watch documentaries now.

[Monet X Change]

He's like. He's like, do you remember that documentary, Good hair I had? Cancel it. Burn it.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Chris Ross said, I don't watch documentaries no more, bitch. I don't. He gonna see a red table and flinch.

[Monet X Change]

And then every time he see a

[Bob the Drag Queen]

red table, he gonna be like, oh, God damn.

[Monet X Change]

And then. So then Will. Then later on, Will Smith wins the award for King Richard, which is weighty

[Bob the Drag Queen]

because I've been rooting for Will Smith to win an Oscar for a long time. And I'm actually very happy that he won.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I'm very happy that he won.

[Monet X Change]

I didn't see the movie, but I don't know.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Cause he's been doing brilliant work for years.

[Monet X Change]

£7. The pursuit of happiness.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Even on the 1st Prince of Bel Air, he was doing amazing work. He can't win an Oscar for a television show.

[Monet X Change]

Did he ever win an Emmy of the episode with his dad? That's the most iconic scene ever.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

We're finding out.

[Monet X Change]

So good is Will. Oh, my God. Does this make him an egot? He made never Tony. Or does he have a Tony?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

He is.

[Monet X Change]

He has a Grammy.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

He was a rap. Does he have a Grammy?

[Monet X Change]

He has a Grammy.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

He is a. He is a.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah. He doesn't have a Tony.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

You know who has been on Broadway?

[Monet X Change]

Chris Rock. Chris Rock.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

For what he was In a show called the Motherfucker with the Hat.

[Monet X Change]

His show.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

He was. And I don't know if he wrote. I don't think he wrote it, but he was.

[Monet X Change]

Did he win a Tony?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

No, I don't think he won, but he was. But he was. Does Chris Rock have a Tony? He was in. I think he was in a show once called the Motherfucker with the Hat.

[Monet X Change]

Work.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah.

[Monet X Change]

Chris Rock is your favorite comedian?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah.

[Monet X Change]

Damn. Your favorite comedian, Your favorite actor.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Will Smith is not my favorite actor. Will Smith is a great actor. I'm gonna be like. But that was. That's really.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah. It's pretty crazy. A lot of people are like, you

[Bob the Drag Queen]

know, Kim invited us to her party.

[Monet X Change]

Her party. I wasn't in town. I heard you were. Did you go?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I was in town. Mm.

[Monet X Change]

Likely story. I heard you were in town. I was not in town.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Do you have any ocular proof?

[Monet X Change]

Don't try to use my words.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Do you have any ocular proof?

[Monet X Change]

Bitch, I got an Oculus.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

You don't have an Oculus.

[Monet X Change]

I do have an Oculus.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

You have an Oculus?

[Monet X Change]

Yes.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

They acting like.

[Monet X Change]

Bitch, you acting like.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

What's your favorite digital background for your Oculus?

[Monet X Change]

I don't know. I never set it up. It's literally in a box in my home.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

So you'll send me a picture when you get home?

[Monet X Change]

Sure.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

It's an Oculus, bitch. It should be a picture. But I know you don't have one.

[Monet X Change]

They're literally, at best.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

It's not about them being rare. I know you don't have one.

[Monet X Change]

I do have an Oculus.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Have told me by now. You have an Oculus. You never open. You went to Best Buy Butter Oculus. You never opened it.

[Monet X Change]

I did not buy it, Andy.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

It's.

[Monet X Change]

It's in my home. Oh, so what's.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

His is yours. So now. Now y' all just one big unit.

[Monet X Change]

I did not say that.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

We are family.

[Monet X Change]

You are so ridiculous.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I got all my brothers with me. I want a picture of Colleen next to Oculus, the hairiest hairless cat in the world.

[Monet X Change]

And everyone on.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Everyone on the live cl. They were like, damn, Colleen got a lot of hair. I thought Bob was joking. They're like Monet fully got grifted. Colleen is a regular cat who has been shaved.

[Monet X Change]

You cannot shave a kitten like that, apparently.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Well, okay. What's more likely that you can just shave a kitten or this cat? It just grew hair. It just grows this one hairless.

[Monet X Change]

The vet said that she's a sping.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

She was like,

[Monet X Change]

the vet says she's a breed of sphinx, that they tend to grow a little hair. He's like, a little hair. He literally was like, this bitch is fuzzy. He said you were just unlucky if you wanted a hairless sphynx, because this is a one girl's hair.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Hairful.

[Monet X Change]

Todrick's cats have hair, too.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I don't mess with Todrick's cats.

[Monet X Change]

You don't mess with them.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Colleen is the only cat I interact with.

[Monet X Change]

There's that picture of you holding Todrick's cat on your lap at his home.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

But no, he put the cat on my lap, and I was like, get this cat off my lap.

[Monet X Change]

No, Bob, you posed a picture. Bob, the picture. You literally, like, you ask, and I have it on my phone, and we're gonna put it in the video.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

But it was also Todrick, like, I heard you don't like cats. Here, hold these cats. It wasn't me.

[Monet X Change]

Like, so why was you posing?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Please give me your. Please give me your cats.

[Monet X Change]

Why you posing, honey?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

You act like I go to touch your house and play with these ugly cats.

[Monet X Change]

Now they're ugly.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

They are ugly cats.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, my God.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

They're not ugly. Just like chicken.

[Monet X Change]

I'm trying to find a picture of

[Bob the Drag Queen]

chicken's ugly cat, too.

[Monet X Change]

Chicken is a demon. That's why I need to get rid of that cat. That cat is a monster from the pits of hell.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

K is the only cat that I. That I interact with. I took. I took. I. I have been near cats. You got me, Monet. I have been near several cats in my life. I do not like Kennedy's cat.

[Monet X Change]

What's going on?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Kennedy's cat, and I'm. Her name is Eden, and Kennedy knows that they're not like her. It's not Eden.

[Monet X Change]

It's Edith.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Edith. The cat pawed at me. The cat tried to hit me. One of these, and I said, all right, we're. You're done.

[Monet X Change]

You're.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I've been to Kenny's house one time.

[Monet X Change]

Bob likes to play fondly.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I was not doing anything to this cat. I was standing in the apartment waiting for Kenny to come. We were going to, like, a party somewhere in Brooklyn, and then the cat just pawed at me.

[Monet X Change]

So while you were just standing here, the cat walks over you and just said yes. Were you wearing, like, one of your little dangly outfits with cat toys on it?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I deserve it, too. Like Chris Rock. So this cat came up Will Smith me. I deserve it now.

[Monet X Change]

So Bob would literally wear an outfit with 90,000 strings on it in front of a cat and be shocked when the cat goes a string. It's a cat, it's not a human being.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I'll be at Monet's house just sitting down. Colleen comes in and starts harassing me when we're podcasting. This cat's tugging at my clothes and like she's a baby. She ain't no baby.

[Monet X Change]

This is three Bob wears an active cat costume when he's at my house. I just shock when the cat wants to play with him.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

She thinks cuz I want. You think, you think I got attack cuz what I was wearing?

[Monet X Change]

Yes. So, yikes, Yikes. Do you think we can get Chris Rock Yikes. Do you think we can get Chris Rock on the podcast to talk about his experience?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Girl, I honestly wonder. You know, Chris Rock didn't go to any after parties.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, yeah.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

He didn't file charges.

[Monet X Change]

He did not?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

No, he did not file charges. Wow, they must. They had to had a moment backstage. You think I would have wanted. It's not. I mean, the true answer. It doesn't matter what I want because it's not my business. I'm not Jada Pinkett. I'm not Will Smith. I'm not Chris Rock. I'm just thinking to myself, like, I feel like if I were in that scenario, I would have. If I wanted to make it a public statement, I would have just said something from the audience and been like, stop making fun of my wife. Okay, let's say that would have been very powerful. You've been making fun of my wife for years. My wife has alopecia.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, that would have been great.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Very sensitive right now. Stop making fun of my fucking wife this year. This your last time I can find my wife, Chris Rock.

[Monet X Change]

So let's say. So let's say Thorjito was on stage at the, at the GLAAD Awards and Jacob, I don't know, has something, some type of term disease that Jacob's very sensitive about. And then Thorgy makes like two jokes about it. But after years of Thorgy, like your season eight stuff, Thorgy's always kind of made these little sly little jokes about Jacob over the years. And you know, Jacob is like, really?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Jacob.

[Monet X Change]

Jacob has had it up to here and Jacob. And you know that. And Thorgy makes the joke and Jacob looks at you like,

[Bob the Drag Queen]

well, okay, I can certainly agree that I would not go hit her.

[Monet X Change]

Okay. Not hitting, right?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

But I probably would from the audience say something. I mean, I'm a loudmouth bitch anyway. I'm very confrontational I'm not physically confrontational, but I'm very confrontational. So I probably would have said something from the audience or when I got a chance to go up to the

[Monet X Change]

microphone later, like, would you make a joke or like a serious thing?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I may. I'm. There's a chance I might have made it light hearted. And then in private, for example, let's say you're at an award show and the host of the show.

[Monet X Change]

Oh my God, I forgot about it.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Makes a fat joke about your best friend who's gained some weight during quarantine. What would you do?

[Monet X Change]

What would you do? Wait, the host.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

If the host of a show, like an award, let's say you. Let's just make up a scenario that you read an award show. And then let's say your best friend gained some weight during quarantine, like say 41 pounds. And then let's say that the host, like in private at the table we were all sitting at, you and your best friend were all sitting at, like, rubbed. Okay, I'm giving too many details. I'll give too many details. I'll give too many details. But what would you do?

[Monet X Change]

I would check my friend and see how upset they were about it and then find out what happens. And then, then apparently I feel like my friend. Cause if I didn't see the thing that happened first, but I did hear the one that happened on stage, I would probably be like, oh, damn. And then spoke to my friend about it and my friend had a swift action to what they wanted to do to remedy the situation.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Did you go slap the host?

[Monet X Change]

No, I would not slap the host.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yikes. Yikes. Do you want to confirm whether or not you were high on that episode because the patrons ended up high.

[Monet X Change]

I was not high. I tell you. I have not done any mushrooms or smoked any weed for like. That's not true. I smoked weed like three days ago on Friday. What's today? Sunday. Yeah, I smoked weed on Friday, but before that I did not smoke weed.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Maybe you had some residual high.

[Monet X Change]

That's not how. That's not how that works.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I've been high for multiple days.

[Monet X Change]

Yeah, but not the day of the podcast. I was like at least a week before that and not smoked. Maybe, maybe that's not.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Maybe weed's stronger now than it used to be.

[Monet X Change]

No, they don't make that weed like they used to. They don't make that weed.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

What am I saying? What is when they say, you never know. You never know. You. You never knows be. Why yo. Duh. I'M trying to come to grips with.

[Monet X Change]

With your.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

You never knows and just be like, that's just. That's just. That's just mo. We were somewhere. You know how when you're with your friends and you just talk like shit, like things you would never say, like, outside of your group of friends. I'm gonna reiterate this. If I. Whenever I die, if I die before you, I'm gonna save our entire Facebook message thread and this is going public, honey. Oh, please.

[Monet X Change]

You just.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I'll be dead. I'll be dead.

[Monet X Change]

They're gonna. I gotta be like, they're really gonna set an automatic post?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yeah, honey. Because everyone gonna know the real Monet exchange over here. I would never do that. We were in the car. I can't remember what we were talking about the day. But like, we were doing this thing where, like, we're always like, shady with each other and like back and forth and whatever it was. Monet was like. I just don't think that's appropriate. I cannot remember what it was. Do you remember this?

[Monet X Change]

No.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

We were like. Do you remember, Jacob? It was something like something that we like all. And it was like such a minis. Oh, it was. Oh, I remember. No, I remember.

[Monet X Change]

It wasn't that big of a deal.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

What? It was calling Tyler Perry a drag queen.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, yeah.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

And calling Todrick a drag queen. And you're like, well, I just don't want to call anyone anything. I want to be called because I just don't believe in calling people, like, think they don't want to be called

[Monet X Change]

because Todi said, I am not a drag queen. I'm like, okay, then, bitch, you're not a drag queen. To be called a drag queen is a high honor, honey. And if you don't want to be called a drag queen, great. Bitch, I'm a fucking drag queen.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I don't think he's knocking it. I don't think. I think he's. I think it's reverence.

[Monet X Change]

Right, Right. And he says he's not. I'm like, good. You're not.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Is Tyler Perry.

[Monet X Change]

I am.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Is Tyler Perry a drag queen?

[Monet X Change]

We talked about his upon the podcast.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Is he just. Maybe we have new listeners. Is he.

[Monet X Change]

I don't think Tyler Perry is a drag queen.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Work.

[Monet X Change]

But this is just like. I don't think Martin Lawrence, Shanae or Jamie Foxx, Wanda. I don't think they're drag queens.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Do they do drag?

[Monet X Change]

They do drag. Yeah, but that was so that's what that means is. Is. Is Nathan Lane a Drag queen. Yeah. For his one role in the Birdcage. He's a drag queen.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

He had a drag role. I would say this. Let's say that maybe he's not a drag queen, but I. I think that Martin Lawrence and Tyler Perry do drag a lot more frequently than Nathan Lane does.

[Monet X Change]

Well, did. Martin Lawrence has not done drag since

[Bob the Drag Queen]

the 90s, and Tyler Perry did it a couple of weeks ago in Madea Homecoming. Tyler Perry isn't. Is actively doing drag all.

[Monet X Change]

He might be drag right now.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

He does drag. Probably does drag more than RuPaul does. Andy, do you have an Oculus? No. Wait, you don't. No.

[Monet X Change]

Andy is putting. Babe, Babe, do not. He knows. And he's trying to put on for

[Bob the Drag Queen]

the podcast the secret Oculus.

[Monet X Change]

He's trying to put on for the podcast to do a thing.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

And he knows that we.

[Monet X Change]

He has an Oculus.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I. I don't. Monet, I had a PlayStation VR that

[Monet X Change]

I just sold on eBay for about $70.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yo, Monat is. So. Thank you very much. And Andy is.

[Monet X Change]

Andy is doing this for the podcast. Andy, I am going to. Do not bother coming back from Texas because you will not have a place to sleep.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

This is the madness that. Y' all see how Monat. This is? Wow. This is the. Y' all think I'm the lion.

[Monet X Change]

Andy is doing a thing.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Why would Andy say he didn't?

[Monet X Change]

Because. Because y'.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

All. You do your little sober thing. It's our sober connection.

[Monet X Change]

We just. We knew.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

It's a. Every. Every 90 days. When we get our new chip, we. We have meeting. All right, Andy, I'm handing you to your. To your. To your. Your girlfriend.

[Monet X Change]

Good night. Have a good night. Jacob, how you. How you. How you put this Galaxy off?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Monet got mad. Monet got mad at me in the car the other day.

[Monet X Change]

Why?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

We were driving back from Taj's concert, and we drove by Rocco's.

[Monet X Change]

Oh.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

And Monet was like. Monet was like, that's the club that Lance Bass owns. And then I said, no, Lance Bass owns the one across the street. And then Monet said, no, I'm pretty sure that that's the one he owns.

[Monet X Change]

And then I know he already fucking said, I don't know about that.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Let me tell my story. And then. And then Andy said, no, babe, I think you're wrong on this one. Lance Bass owns the one across the street. And then. And then I said, well. I said, well, just look it up then. And then Monet says, no, I'm not gonna look it. I'M gonna call Godoy, who works there. And I said, you could just look it up. Like, I don't think you have to call folks. It was pretty. It wasn't that late.

[Monet X Change]

It was like at 10 o'.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Clock. I said, you can just call. You can just look at. You can just Google it. I'm sure the answer to whether or not he owns.

[Monet X Change]

But y' all know. Yeah, this is Bob. Is this even killing this? This calm?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

So what was I screaming you like? I said. I said, just Google it. And then when I said, no, I'm calling Godoy. So then Monet called Godoy and then said, does Lance Bass? Is Lance Bass part owner of Rocco's? And then Godoy said, yes. And then when they turned around to Andy, and she goes, would you like to apologize to me now? And then Andy was like, okay. And then. And then when it was like, does anyone in this car want to apologize to me? And then I was like, see? And I said, this is very aggressive.

[Monet X Change]

Okay, no. So we're driving.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Let me finish. I said. I said, this is very aggressive. Then we got. We got all the way to Bossa Nova. Bossa Nova. And then we got out of the car. And then Patty started getting riled up. So now Patty. Patty's also like. And then Patty said, you two are gaslighting Monet Exchange. And we said, how are we gaslighting Monet? And they were like, you got her to a point where she felt like she had to call Godoy. You kept telling. You kept trying to make her think she was crazy. And I was like. I said. I said, patty being wrong about something is not gaslighting someone. We were wrong about something. We were not gaslighting one Exchange. So I would like to hear this from your experience.

[Monet X Change]

So we're driving up the street, and then we're driving past. Because if you live in la, Rocco's is one corner. This new club, Hart is across the street. So we're driving past, and then Bob goes, oh, no. We were at Rocco's. And Bob was like, no, Hart. And you said, this. This is the club that lands Bass on. I said. I said, he owns Rocco's. And you were like, no, no, no. I'm pretty sure he owns Heart. I was like, I don't know about Heart. I know that he owns Rocco's. And you were like. And then Andy goes, babe, you're wrong about this. You know, he put his hands. He put his hands on his shoulder. He's like, babe, you're wrong about this. Just. You're wrong. And I was like. I was like. I was like, I'm telling y', all, he owns Rocco's. And you were like. Then you were like, monet. He was like, no, no. Then you look at Andy go. Then you goes, classic Monet. She can't. She can't. I mean, when she's wrong. Something. Something to that effect. Yes. Yes, it did. Yes, it did.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Luckily, again, we can call Andy back. So.

[Monet X Change]

Yes, he. Yes, he did. And then I was like. And I was like. I was like, I'm telling. I know for a fact he owns Rocco's. And you, like, look it up. I was like, no, I'm gonna call Godoy. He'll know. Cause I was like, what do you search? Just the Lance Bass. Who knows? We're gonna find a whole bunch of things.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

That's not what you said. You said.

[Monet X Change]

I didn't say no.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I'm calling Godoy.

[Monet X Change]

That's not true. I said. I said. I said. I said no, I'm calling Godoy.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

That's literally. I literally just said, you said, no, I'm calling. Good doy. You said, no. I said, no, I'm calling because you said.

[Monet X Change]

You said, no, I'm calling Gador.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

I didn't say that.

[Monet X Change]

I said, no, I'm calling Godoy. I called Godoy on the phone. I said, goodoy. Which does Lance pass on Rocco's?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

And he was.

[Monet X Change]

And he was like, yeah, he does. I was like, thank you. Thank you. And then you will go.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Then you said.

[Monet X Change]

And then you said, ask him about. Ask him about Rocco's. I'm asking about Heart. I was like. I was like, I don't care about rock. I don't care about heart. I said, rocco's. And then I. And then I. And then I hung up the phone with Godoy. Then we got to. Then we got to Bossa Nova.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

You left at the part where you turned around, looked at. Do you want to apologize?

[Monet X Change]

I don't remember doing that. Maybe I did. I'm going to concede. Maybe I did say that. And then. So we get to Bossa Nova, and I get out of the car. No. Then on our way to Bossa Nova, Andy, to me, I guess to me saying, Andy said something else. Andy was like. And then you responded, typical. Whatever it was. You were like, typical monetary. There goes Monet. Monet.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Monet.

[Monet X Change]

Oh, no. You were like. You were like. But you didn't. But you didn't ask about Hart, though. You asked about Hart. I was like, yes, you did.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yes, you did.

[Monet X Change]

I said, And I said, we can call Patty. And I said. And I said, I never said anything about Hart. I was talking about Rocco's. And you were like, monet. Well, we doing the Bob thing, because y' all know Bob gets into this circular argument. And I was like, I don't care about a heart. I was talking about Rocco's also.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Didn't have it.

[Monet X Change]

Yes, absolutely.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

What's so funny? Because you said. I said, it's about Hart, but earlier, you just said. You goes, no, I think it's Rocco. That's what you just said, that you

[Monet X Change]

went, no, I said. That's not what I said. I said. I said, I don't know about heart. I. I know. I know about Rocco's.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

A second ago, you. When I said, no, it's hard. You said, no, no, it's Rocco's. You just said that, Monet.

[Monet X Change]

No, I did not. I said, I don't know about heart. I said, rocco's. Anyway, we're gonna. We're not gonna argue about this anymore again.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

If you want, we can call Andy, and Andy will be like a tall Patty. And we can call Andy and Patty.

[Monet X Change]

Okay.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

We can go.

[Monet X Change]

We could have a conference call.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Monet leaves out these. These. Give these.

[Monet X Change]

See?

[Bob the Drag Queen]

That's what he said.

[Monet X Change]

This was it.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

This is Andy in the car. You left and said to Andy, nicar. No, no, no.

[Monet X Change]

Yes.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Yes. Jacob. Jacob was there. Jacob can give his recount of story, too. Jacob was also in the car.

[Monet X Change]

Well, we're not going to argue. We're done.

[Bob the Drag Queen]

Okay. Mm.

[Monet X Change]

Maybe. Maybe, you know, maybe we'll get Andy, Jacob, and Patty. We can all talk about that situation together, all five of us on camera.
