Speaker 1 (00:12):
So let's talk about the Academy Awards that I did
not see. And I am not a hater. I don't
know why. I'm not hungry, Like I don't know why
I didn't care. I went out to dinner Sunday night.
I did not even realize it was the Oscars and
(00:33):
I didn't care. And it's not like I said, being
a hater. I just didn't care and I didn't know,
and I didn't see any of the movies. And the
whole world changed since the pandemic with movie going, which
was already suffering. But I mean, do you ever go
to the movies? Like, do you ever go to the movies?
Because if you go to the movies, by the time
(00:53):
you leave the movie, it's already on your television. And
I used to go to the I Pick with my
daughter because of the experience. Like I just to be
perfectly honest, I was going through a wretched divorce and
didn't want to be in my house. So I would
go there to like bring my own blanket and pillow
because I was lucky enough to have a driver, and
I'd have the blanket and pillow in the car and
it'd take my daughter and we would just snuggle and
(01:14):
lay and order mid food, and I just cherished being
able to have her like locked in with me for
that period of time. But that really is the last
time I can remember going to the movies. I just
that is a dying art. It's a dead art. When
we were kids, that was like the weekend, and then
people were complaining about how much money it would be
to go with the family to the movies because you
(01:37):
had to pay for all the concessions and the snacks
because that was the only way they could afford to
keep it going and ticket sales. I just, I mean,
where are movie theaters anymore? Like so actors, and I
don't know what the ratings were the oscars. I guess
I would have to look it up because I don't
know if people care. And then thank God for the fashion,
(01:58):
because it seems like the only reason people care is
for the fashion. And sometimes I think I saw something
because I saw a clip on social media. So I'll
see a clip on social media about a podcast and
think that I listened to the podcast. And the reason
I know that's not possible is that I have never
listened to a podcast. So I've convinced myself that I've
(02:21):
heard a whole interview on Call Her Daddy because I
saw a two minute clip.
Speaker 2 (02:27):
So basically, the Oscars is the same thing.
Speaker 1 (02:29):
Like I was there because I saw the Vanity Fair
party and Kim wearing a gold dress. So for the
people in the industry, like they need to go to
those parties because that's where you're really working at and
networking and just marketing yourself as a person, you really
need the red carpet because you need to have a
look that bangs and slams, just like the met Gala.
(02:52):
Like that's a business. Like you're watching I think it
was Kate Hudson and Demi Moore do an add for
Charlotte Tilbury via the Oscars. You see them both holding
the heart shape beautiful Charlotte Tillbury compact, which I have,
and like that's a commercial. So them going to the
Oscars is business because they're doing a brand new which
(03:15):
no one understands more than I do. And then Kelly
Rippa is doing one for Lareel with Christopher Buckle doing
her makeup. The doing the movie is no longer the thing.
It's the doing the thing around the thing. So it's
the holding the heart compact for Charlotte Tilbury, which is
what I've been saying for such a long time. I
started that on reality TV when I was making two
(03:36):
hundred fifty dollars, even pre Kardashians, I was, you know,
using that as a platform because what was the point
of me being on TV to make and two hundred
and fifty.
Speaker 2 (03:46):
Dollars and expose myself?
Speaker 1 (03:47):
And the exposure wasn't as bad then as it is
now because of social media and because of blogs and
everything you say, but the mediums have all changed, everything's changed.
So I think that because I saw what someone wearing
on the Vanity Fair red carpet that I saw the
oscars and I didn't even see anything that happened at
the Vanity Fair party, not that you could because it's
(04:08):
just a party, but that is a show.
Speaker 2 (04:10):
The show is outside the show.
Speaker 1 (04:12):
So I saw Kim Kardashian wearing a gold dress and
I was thinking, I'm thinking aloud, because I was thinking,
why was Kim only wearing one dress and Kylie was
wearing two looks? And that's because Kylie was with Timothy
Shalome as his girlfriend at the Oscar events because he's nominated.
(04:33):
He was nominated, So she's supporting her boyfriend or life partner.
I can't help but love them. I can't help but
love them. I know nothing about them. I just can't
help but think they're truly in love. They're a nice couple.
It doesn't mean I know that they're ending up together
any more than I knew that Justin bieber or Selena
(04:53):
Gomez or Britney Spears and Justin Timberlake are ending up together.
Speaker 2 (04:58):
But I like them together. They super cute.
Speaker 1 (05:02):
Nice to have, like a cute sort of high school
boyfriend partner in the world of the opposite of high school,
Like it's just you're in grown up Hollywood entertainment, big
girl and boy panty land, but they get to have
each other.
Speaker 2 (05:16):
It's just something cute about it. So I like it.
She always looks incredible.
Speaker 1 (05:19):
It is so amazing that Kylie Jenner was the Swan.
We had a similar agent, and my agent went to
Chloe's wedding and I'll never forget. She wore like a
strapless cream dress and she it was to lamar Odom
and she had like a purple like ribbon around her belt.
This is back when people wore like one outfit it
wasn't like a circus, and she had like this eight carrot,
(05:42):
really pretty diamond and Mary lamar odom And I remember
my agent coming back from that wedding and saying, wow,
like you know who looked amazing and who is the
one to watch is Kylie?
Speaker 2 (05:53):
But like that was Kendall and Kylie.
Speaker 1 (05:54):
They were the little girls on the show, like arguing,
getting into trouble. She was and her sister was the model,
which probably really motivated her because she was like not
the model. And she looks so stunning and I mean
every look and the waste and the sense. I mean
she really does like land it. She really lands it.
(06:15):
So her looks were amazing. I think they're cute. So
people have been criticizing Kim's look and I don't understand,
like Kim knew her place at an event in my opinion.
So here's the thing. If I'm invited to something, I
like to think about what it means and like why
I'm there and who I am to the experience. Okay,
So while Kim Kardashian is the queen of the universe
(06:38):
in many ways, she's not going to walk into the
Oscars when she's not in a movie. She's not nominated
for anything. She's not going to the Oscars, she's not
going to go to the Vanity Fair party, and like
take Over, she could and she could land it, but
I just think the choice is wise. Like and frankly,
Kylie wore a hot dress, but she didn't take over either.
Speaker 2 (06:57):
She's not up for the award. And there's something to
be said for this.
Speaker 1 (07:00):
Like let's say you're invited to trybeca film festival, but
you're just invited to go see a movie that's a
different outfit than you produced, a movie, you acted in,
a movie, you directed, a movie you have. It has
something to do with you. And Kim's boyfriend is a
race car driver, I think, right, So it was different
when she was Reggie Bush. She wore like the football
outfit when she went with Reggie Bush to the Super Bowl,
(07:23):
just like Alex Earl used to go and dress the
part when she was with a football player. Like it's
just there's a nuance to what you wear to what.
So Kim wore an elegant, beaded Gucci gown. Gucci's having
its moment right now, and she had like a cool
she care moment, and like that's it. But like, I
like that she didn't come in moogler like hair dripping, wet, sinching,
(07:47):
meril monrose dress, giant train, Like it really doesn't have
anything to do with her. She's a guest of the
Vanity Fair party, which is an elite party. She's gonna
see a lot of her peers. If she were single,
she might have seen a guy. Like that's just a
fun night out for her. So you go on certain
(08:16):
shows and you dress the part you go. I remember
years ago Robert Verdy, the stylist, I think it was
Watch what Happens Live I was going on. He was like,
and I never thought about the fact that, like, you're
sitting the whole show, so you're not gonna waste the
outfit that's going to scrunch up at your waist or
the skirt that you won't be able to see. You're
supposed to think about it. You're sitting, are you standing?
How much of your body are they showing? And then
he'd be like, that's a shoe show. I never thought
(08:38):
about that, Like it was a shoe show because you're
sitting and what you're seeing is people's waist to their
head and the shoes the legs, so yes, your shimmer
better be shimmering on the legs. And I remember, I
think it was him too, because I've never had a stylist.
Remember I would back then, I would like ask someone
a friend or something like what are you ware of this?
And he'd be like, the view that's like you're with
(08:58):
your girlfriends a little bit elevated. Like I've seen people
go on those shows and like get decked out, or
go on like Ellen or one of those shows and
get decked out. But to me, you're sitting down with
your girlfriends when you talk to Kelly Rippo, when you
talk to them, like it's a what would you wear
with your girlfriend's elevated show? It's morning, etc. Like I said,
of course people get decked out and wear beads and
(09:19):
sequins in the morning, but I don't believe in that.
So I believe you dressed for where you're going. So
I didn't see any problem with what Kim wore. I
thought it was actually totally appropriate. And then you see
people trying to do too much like someone was, And
I'm not going to criticize anyone Like Kara Delivin is amazing,
and I've had the pleasure of walking with her in
the Lorial show, and she runs the show.
Speaker 2 (09:40):
There.
Speaker 1 (09:41):
She wore something where like the chest was on her body.
I don't know if she had anything to do with
the oscars, but people were talking about what she wore.
Julia Fox is known for like shock value, so she
wore something of shock value. I think people get into
trouble when they try to do too much.
Speaker 2 (09:59):
But then you don't want to be boring. You don't
want to be boring.
Speaker 1 (10:02):
You know, people are like, can we please not see
another blond woman in a beat a dress? I think
for me, I don't think the dress would be the
hardest thing to land. I really don't. I think the
common nation would be the hardest thing to land. Like
make sure that the makeup is slamming, and that the
chances that you take with like the hair, with the makeup,
with the jewelry, with the dress land. I think Lauren
(10:24):
Sanchez I texted her she did a great job, like
someone did a video saying she picked a dress to
go with her jewelry. She wore a Lorraine Schwartz pink
and white diamond necklace, which matches her ring. I think
it was elegant. I think also she and Jeff like
they knew their place. They were like old Hollywood glamour.
She wore a strapless waist cinched black like satin type
(10:47):
dress and I don't know who made it, but like
people comment on her, and she's always showing the body
and the boobs, like you couldn't really see the boobs.
Guess what she has boobs. She has a cinch waist
and she wants you're allowed to have your own personal style.
If Julia Fox could dress like over the top, like
costume theatrical, like, that's not my style, but I get it,
I accept it. Lauren Sanchez can always wear like a
(11:09):
cinched corset like Doulce vibes thing, because that's what she is.
She wants to be sexy. She didn't get her man
by not being sexy, the man that many of you
were jealous that she got and criticized her. So she
was wearing I think it was like perfect. They looked
like mister and missus Oscar. They looked very old world glamour.
I think Kim looked very old Hollywood glamour too. Kylie
always manages that like listen in the future, these will
(11:32):
be the starlets of our generation. People will look back
and think of them as like that old world Hollywood.
So I had no problem with these looks. I didn't
see everything else. I don't even know the names of
a lot.
Speaker 2 (11:45):
Of the people. I saw a Michael B.
Speaker 1 (11:47):
Jordan hugging Leonardo DiCaprio moment after he won. I imagine, like,
you know, he's looking to Leo, who I love, love Leo,
had met Leo. I think he's cool. He minds his
own fucking business. Everyone's up his ass. But I think
he's a nice guy. Like he's a nice, chill guy.
He likes to have fun, and he dates beautiful women
and that's the end of it, Like fuck off. So anyway,
(12:07):
I think that probably Michael B. Jordan was like overwhelmed
he won. He knew he was up against Leo, who's
like the Jack Nicholson of our generation. Like he's just
like the legendary actor since he was a kid. I
forgot the name of the show he did when he
was a kid, because that's how old it wasn't my
so called life was it? With what it doesn't matter?
With what's her name from Homeland doesn't matter. I don't
(12:29):
remember anything, but you all know what I'm talking about.
He has been a legend and an extraordinary actor his
whole life, like being handpicked by Robert de Niro, and
so I guess it was like a very meaningful moment.
But again, we can get all of this Garner, all
of this through just like clips. That's what's crazy. That's
why when people say why don't you have a show,
It's like, what do you mean?
Speaker 2 (12:48):
I have a show?
Speaker 1 (12:49):
I have a phone. Why don't I have a show?
What do you mean why don't I have a show.
I have a phone. I do have a show.
Speaker 2 (12:53):
We're on it. This is it. My phone's my show.
That's the way it goes.
Speaker 1 (12:57):
Okay, So I really want to talk about hard workers
versus shiny bullshit resumes. I have learned over and over
again since the beginning of my business, when I would
hire people just based on their proximity to me. I've
had assistance that were making more money than I was
making because I was broke when I needed someone to
(13:17):
help me. And if someone has a hard work ethic,
I could teach them anything loyalty, honesty, hard work, desire, passion, drive.
I don't care about their resume at all, and in fact,
the better the resume, the worse the employee. I have
had such fancy resume, job titles and people that people
(13:38):
have worked for before, and situations that I get excited
by every time, and then they come and they are
just basic. They're lazy, everything's too much. They can play
and they whine and put that up against hard workers.
Speaker 2 (13:54):
It's unbelievable.
Speaker 1 (13:55):
I have a situation where I have people working for
me that I've had it so many times. I have
a girl who works for the Core who used to
be my assistant, and I said to the woman running
the corps, I said, listen to me. She's a hard worker.
I taught her everything you could teach her everything. She's
a sponge, She's loyal, she's hardworking. These guys that are
now working for me that worked for me on like
(14:16):
sort of a part time basis, and I thought they
never I thought they were like beaves and butterhead and
they could never do it. They are working better than
people who have come from the best recruiters in the country.
Like they are just loyal, young, hardworking, not precious, not sensitive,
not complaining young men.
Speaker 2 (14:38):
One is in college. I make a joke.
Speaker 1 (14:40):
I go, I've got a college student and a mechanic
running my business. They are more thorough more communicative, more organized,
more on top of it make me feel more safe
than people that have decades of experience and have been
making six figures.
Speaker 2 (14:55):
Like well, into six figures.
Speaker 1 (14:56):
I am upside down because I keep waiting for the
other shooto fall and it's not like they're crushing. I
just have to say to take this into your business
or your life, or your household or whatever however this
applies to you. I just want you to know that
you could be spending so much more money than you
need to because you have people in positions and you
(15:19):
think they're sort of either supervising or managing, and then
you realize, wait a second, if I'm micromanaging the person
that's managing these other people, why don't I just manage
these other people.
Speaker 2 (15:30):
It's the same amount of work. It's a path of
least resistance.
Speaker 1 (15:32):
Get these expensive seasoned all delegating farming out people out.
(15:54):
A lot of times you think that someone's working, but
what they're really just doing is farming it out. And
you could see it like they are based like a
contractor in your own business. You're watching them, You're watching
you ask them to do something and then then farm
it out to someone else, them delegated someone else. You're like, well,
I could have asked that person to do that. What
are you doing? Like you have to really stop down
in your business and say what exactly are these people
(16:17):
doing and be able to follow the breadcrumbs track it
because I started to think, I don't know, like it
feels like this person is just like farming everything out,
and then you find out that those people were doing
all the actual work. This person was just saying to them,
go get that done. But they had all the contacts,
they had all the relationships, they were doing it. It's insane.
(16:39):
It's insane, which is said, what's happened to me a
couple of times now. So I always go for the
shiny objects and I really learn my lesson. You know,
they're like grown men, particularly of a certain era and age,
because they're old school drive buzzed like I've seen it.
I've saw it twice on dates where I had to
stop the person I want to get out of the car,
(17:00):
like I'm not managing someone else's alcohol intake. I'm not
looking at exactly how many drinks they had. I know
how many drinks I had. I was on a date
and I had half a martini and then I had
two glasses of wine. And for me, like that's a lot.
That's too much, Like half a martini and one glass
of wine would be okay, but like, you know, whatever
I was feeling myself. The point is, I know that
I felt that I was too much. I'm not babysitting
(17:23):
and counting someone else's drinks. But then I've been in
a car with someone where they either look down at
their phone or they're acting a little sloppy, not quite swerving,
but like one guy like went through he didn't go
through a stops and we're at a stop sign and
he went through like a very busy street, but like
it was too close for comfort, and I was like,
are you It was just driving a little like slightly
(17:44):
recklessly and it freaked me out and I said something
after I actually was he was someone who was in
the core, very successful catch and a half, and I
was like that made me feel really uncomfortable and really unsafe.
Another time, someone like outside I was waiting to get
an uber I think it was or my car to come.
They got an uber and they left before me. I
(18:06):
was thinking, like, I'm standing outside on a street. I
don't care if it's old fashioned. Men need to make
women feel safe in dating, but otherwise, like I did
not feel safe getting into a car with someone who
I think might have had too much to drink, and
they're like driving, they're not taking an uber, Like, what
the fuck is wrong with you? I went crazy on one.
I was like, I am my entire life to my daughter.
(18:28):
Also and it's not the primary concern at all, But
I'm like, I'm also a public person. I also invented
a cocktail, primarily first and foremost, Like I'm a human being.
I'm a single mother. Like, also, not about me, that's
being selfish? What about the other person? What about other
people in other cars? Like you could hit someone. It's
so like men in their fifties to think that they're
(18:49):
invincible because they grew up when like there were no seatbelts,
there was no break light. People just mothers drank and
smoked while pregnant, like it was a different era. But
these guys, especially, I mean not especially especially, what the
fuck is wrong with me? I was gonna say, if
they can afford to taken uber. Anybody that I would
go out with could probably afford to take an uber.
I mean, I don't I don't know. I just was
(19:10):
so aggravated and irritated. It is such an incredible itch
turn off. Disgusted what goes on with people like who's
still even as buzzed and drives? Who has like two
drinks like alcohol drinks and drives? And I even think
like two wines is pushing it, because sometimes something could
hit you sideways. You didn't eat your hormonal like you.
(19:30):
Maybe a man worked out a lot, he's dehydrated. Like,
alcohol can really affect people in different ways, and it
can hit differently on different days. I would say anything
more than like a drink or drink and a half
for a grown man, you need to be fucking taken uber.
Speaker 2 (19:44):
Some might agree one drink. I don't know.
Speaker 1 (19:45):
I'd love to hear what you have to say about it.
I'm not the one driving when I go out with
these people, but I don't believe it. No, I wouldn't
get in a car and drive more than one drink,
Like one glass of wine really pissed me off off
So let's talk about the Academy Awards that I did
not see. And I am not a hater. I don't
know why. I'm not hungry, Like I don't know why
I didn't care. I went out to dinner Sunday night.
I did not even realize it was the Oscars and
(00:33):
I didn't care. And it's not like I said, being
a hater. I just didn't care and I didn't know,
and I didn't see any of the movies. And the
whole world changed since the pandemic with movie going, which
was already suffering. But I mean, do you ever go
to the movies? Like, do you ever go to the movies?
Because if you go to the movies, by the time
(00:53):
you leave the movie, it's already on your television. And
I used to go to the I Pick with my
daughter because of the experience. Like I just to be
perfectly honest, I was going through a wretched divorce and
didn't want to be in my house. So I would
go there to like bring my own blanket and pillow
because I was lucky enough to have a driver, and
I'd have the blanket and pillow in the car and
it'd take my daughter and we would just snuggle and
(01:14):
lay and order mid food, and I just cherished being
able to have her like locked in with me for
that period of time. But that really is the last
time I can remember going to the movies. I just
that is a dying art. It's a dead art. When
we were kids, that was like the weekend, and then
people were complaining about how much money it would be
to go with the family to the movies because you
(01:37):
had to pay for all the concessions and the snacks
because that was the only way they could afford to
keep it going and ticket sales. I just, I mean,
where are movie theaters anymore? Like so actors, and I
don't know what the ratings were the oscars. I guess
I would have to look it up because I don't
know if people care. And then thank God for the fashion,
(01:58):
because it seems like the only reason people care is
for the fashion. And sometimes I think I saw something
because I saw a clip on social media. So I'll
see a clip on social media about a podcast and
think that I listened to the podcast. And the reason
I know that's not possible is that I have never
listened to a podcast. So I've convinced myself that I've
(02:21):
heard a whole interview on Call Her Daddy because I
saw a two minute clip.
Speaker 2 (02:27):
So basically, the Oscars is the same thing.
Speaker 1 (02:29):
Like I was there because I saw the Vanity Fair
party and Kim wearing a gold dress. So for the
people in the industry, like they need to go to
those parties because that's where you're really working at and
networking and just marketing yourself as a person, you really
need the red carpet because you need to have a
look that bangs and slams, just like the met Gala.
(02:52):
Like that's a business. Like you're watching I think it
was Kate Hudson and Demi Moore do an add for
Charlotte Tilbury via the Oscars. You see them both holding
the heart shape beautiful Charlotte Tillbury compact, which I have,
and like that's a commercial. So them going to the
Oscars is business because they're doing a brand new which
(03:15):
no one understands more than I do. And then Kelly
Rippa is doing one for Lareel with Christopher Buckle doing
her makeup. The doing the movie is no longer the thing.
It's the doing the thing around the thing. So it's
the holding the heart compact for Charlotte Tilbury, which is
what I've been saying for such a long time. I
started that on reality TV when I was making two
(03:36):
hundred fifty dollars, even pre Kardashians, I was, you know,
using that as a platform because what was the point
of me being on TV to make and two hundred
and fifty.
Speaker 2 (03:46):
Dollars and expose myself?
Speaker 1 (03:47):
And the exposure wasn't as bad then as it is
now because of social media and because of blogs and
everything you say, but the mediums have all changed, everything's changed.
So I think that because I saw what someone wearing
on the Vanity Fair red carpet that I saw the
oscars and I didn't even see anything that happened at
the Vanity Fair party, not that you could because it's
(04:08):
just a party, but that is a show.
Speaker 2 (04:10):
The show is outside the show.
Speaker 1 (04:12):
So I saw Kim Kardashian wearing a gold dress and
I was thinking, I'm thinking aloud, because I was thinking,
why was Kim only wearing one dress and Kylie was
wearing two looks? And that's because Kylie was with Timothy
Shalome as his girlfriend at the Oscar events because he's nominated.
(04:33):
He was nominated, So she's supporting her boyfriend or life partner.
I can't help but love them. I can't help but
love them. I know nothing about them. I just can't
help but think they're truly in love. They're a nice couple.
It doesn't mean I know that they're ending up together
any more than I knew that Justin bieber or Selena
(04:53):
Gomez or Britney Spears and Justin Timberlake are ending up together.
Speaker 2 (04:58):
But I like them together. They super cute.
Speaker 1 (05:02):
Nice to have, like a cute sort of high school
boyfriend partner in the world of the opposite of high school,
Like it's just you're in grown up Hollywood entertainment, big
girl and boy panty land, but they get to have
each other.
Speaker 2 (05:16):
It's just something cute about it. So I like it.
She always looks incredible.
Speaker 1 (05:19):
It is so amazing that Kylie Jenner was the Swan.
We had a similar agent, and my agent went to
Chloe's wedding and I'll never forget. She wore like a
strapless cream dress and she it was to lamar Odom
and she had like a purple like ribbon around her belt.
This is back when people wore like one outfit it
wasn't like a circus, and she had like this eight carrot,
(05:42):
really pretty diamond and Mary lamar odom And I remember
my agent coming back from that wedding and saying, wow,
like you know who looked amazing and who is the
one to watch is Kylie?
Speaker 2 (05:53):
But like that was Kendall and Kylie.
Speaker 1 (05:54):
They were the little girls on the show, like arguing,
getting into trouble. She was and her sister was the model,
which probably really motivated her because she was like not
the model. And she looks so stunning and I mean
every look and the waste and the sense. I mean
she really does like land it. She really lands it.
(06:15):
So her looks were amazing. I think they're cute. So
people have been criticizing Kim's look and I don't understand,
like Kim knew her place at an event in my opinion.
So here's the thing. If I'm invited to something, I
like to think about what it means and like why
I'm there and who I am to the experience. Okay,
So while Kim Kardashian is the queen of the universe
(06:38):
in many ways, she's not going to walk into the
Oscars when she's not in a movie. She's not nominated
for anything. She's not going to the Oscars, she's not
going to go to the Vanity Fair party, and like
take Over, she could and she could land it, but
I just think the choice is wise. Like and frankly,
Kylie wore a hot dress, but she didn't take over either.
Speaker 2 (06:57):
She's not up for the award. And there's something to
be said for this.
Speaker 1 (07:00):
Like let's say you're invited to trybeca film festival, but
you're just invited to go see a movie that's a
different outfit than you produced, a movie, you acted in,
a movie, you directed, a movie you have. It has
something to do with you. And Kim's boyfriend is a
race car driver, I think, right, So it was different
when she was Reggie Bush. She wore like the football
outfit when she went with Reggie Bush to the Super Bowl,
(07:23):
just like Alex Earl used to go and dress the
part when she was with a football player. Like it's
just there's a nuance to what you wear to what.
So Kim wore an elegant, beaded Gucci gown. Gucci's having
its moment right now, and she had like a cool
she care moment, and like that's it. But like, I
like that she didn't come in moogler like hair dripping, wet, sinching,
(07:47):
meril monrose dress, giant train, Like it really doesn't have
anything to do with her. She's a guest of the
Vanity Fair party, which is an elite party. She's gonna
see a lot of her peers. If she were single,
she might have seen a guy. Like that's just a
fun night out for her. So you go on certain
(08:16):
shows and you dress the part you go. I remember
years ago Robert Verdy, the stylist, I think it was
Watch what Happens Live I was going on. He was like,
and I never thought about the fact that, like, you're
sitting the whole show, so you're not gonna waste the
outfit that's going to scrunch up at your waist or
the skirt that you won't be able to see. You're
supposed to think about it. You're sitting, are you standing?
How much of your body are they showing? And then
he'd be like, that's a shoe show. I never thought
(08:38):
about that, Like it was a shoe show because you're
sitting and what you're seeing is people's waist to their
head and the shoes the legs, so yes, your shimmer
better be shimmering on the legs. And I remember, I
think it was him too, because I've never had a stylist.
Remember I would back then, I would like ask someone
a friend or something like what are you ware of this?
And he'd be like, the view that's like you're with
(08:58):
your girlfriends a little bit elevated. Like I've seen people
go on those shows and like get decked out, or
go on like Ellen or one of those shows and
get decked out. But to me, you're sitting down with
your girlfriends when you talk to Kelly Rippo, when you
talk to them, like it's a what would you wear
with your girlfriend's elevated show? It's morning, etc. Like I said,
of course people get decked out and wear beads and
(09:19):
sequins in the morning, but I don't believe in that.
So I believe you dressed for where you're going. So
I didn't see any problem with what Kim wore. I
thought it was actually totally appropriate. And then you see
people trying to do too much like someone was, And
I'm not going to criticize anyone Like Kara Delivin is amazing,
and I've had the pleasure of walking with her in
the Lorial show, and she runs the show.
Speaker 2 (09:40):
There.
Speaker 1 (09:41):
She wore something where like the chest was on her body.
I don't know if she had anything to do with
the oscars, but people were talking about what she wore.
Julia Fox is known for like shock value, so she
wore something of shock value. I think people get into
trouble when they try to do too much.
Speaker 2 (09:59):
But then you don't want to be boring. You don't
want to be boring.
Speaker 1 (10:02):
You know, people are like, can we please not see
another blond woman in a beat a dress? I think
for me, I don't think the dress would be the
hardest thing to land. I really don't. I think the
common nation would be the hardest thing to land. Like
make sure that the makeup is slamming, and that the
chances that you take with like the hair, with the makeup,
with the jewelry, with the dress land. I think Lauren
(10:24):
Sanchez I texted her she did a great job, like
someone did a video saying she picked a dress to
go with her jewelry. She wore a Lorraine Schwartz pink
and white diamond necklace, which matches her ring. I think
it was elegant. I think also she and Jeff like
they knew their place. They were like old Hollywood glamour.
She wore a strapless waist cinched black like satin type
(10:47):
dress and I don't know who made it, but like
people comment on her, and she's always showing the body
and the boobs, like you couldn't really see the boobs.
Guess what she has boobs. She has a cinch waist
and she wants you're allowed to have your own personal style.
If Julia Fox could dress like over the top, like
costume theatrical, like, that's not my style, but I get it,
I accept it. Lauren Sanchez can always wear like a
(11:09):
cinched corset like Doulce vibes thing, because that's what she is.
She wants to be sexy. She didn't get her man
by not being sexy, the man that many of you
were jealous that she got and criticized her. So she
was wearing I think it was like perfect. They looked
like mister and missus Oscar. They looked very old world glamour.
I think Kim looked very old Hollywood glamour too. Kylie
always manages that like listen in the future, these will
(11:32):
be the starlets of our generation. People will look back
and think of them as like that old world Hollywood.
So I had no problem with these looks. I didn't
see everything else. I don't even know the names of
a lot.
Speaker 2 (11:45):
Of the people. I saw a Michael B.
Speaker 1 (11:47):
Jordan hugging Leonardo DiCaprio moment after he won. I imagine, like,
you know, he's looking to Leo, who I love, love Leo,
had met Leo. I think he's cool. He minds his
own fucking business. Everyone's up his ass. But I think
he's a nice guy. Like he's a nice, chill guy.
He likes to have fun, and he dates beautiful women
and that's the end of it, Like fuck off. So anyway,
(12:07):
I think that probably Michael B. Jordan was like overwhelmed
he won. He knew he was up against Leo, who's
like the Jack Nicholson of our generation. Like he's just
like the legendary actor since he was a kid. I
forgot the name of the show he did when he
was a kid, because that's how old it wasn't my
so called life was it? With what it doesn't matter?
With what's her name from Homeland doesn't matter. I don't
(12:29):
remember anything, but you all know what I'm talking about.
He has been a legend and an extraordinary actor his
whole life, like being handpicked by Robert de Niro, and
so I guess it was like a very meaningful moment.
But again, we can get all of this Garner, all
of this through just like clips. That's what's crazy. That's
why when people say why don't you have a show,
It's like, what do you mean?
Speaker 2 (12:48):
I have a show?
Speaker 1 (12:49):
I have a phone. Why don't I have a show?
What do you mean why don't I have a show.
I have a phone. I do have a show.
Speaker 2 (12:53):
We're on it. This is it. My phone's my show.
That's the way it goes.
Speaker 1 (12:57):
Okay, So I really want to talk about hard workers
versus shiny bullshit resumes. I have learned over and over
again since the beginning of my business, when I would
hire people just based on their proximity to me. I've
had assistance that were making more money than I was
making because I was broke when I needed someone to
(13:17):
help me. And if someone has a hard work ethic,
I could teach them anything loyalty, honesty, hard work, desire, passion, drive.
I don't care about their resume at all, and in fact,
the better the resume, the worse the employee. I have
had such fancy resume, job titles and people that people
(13:38):
have worked for before, and situations that I get excited
by every time, and then they come and they are
just basic. They're lazy, everything's too much. They can play
and they whine and put that up against hard workers.
Speaker 2 (13:54):
It's unbelievable.
Speaker 1 (13:55):
I have a situation where I have people working for
me that I've had it so many times. I have
a girl who works for the Core who used to
be my assistant, and I said to the woman running
the corps, I said, listen to me. She's a hard worker.
I taught her everything you could teach her everything. She's
a sponge, She's loyal, she's hardworking. These guys that are
now working for me that worked for me on like
(14:16):
sort of a part time basis, and I thought they
never I thought they were like beaves and butterhead and
they could never do it. They are working better than
people who have come from the best recruiters in the country.
Like they are just loyal, young, hardworking, not precious, not sensitive,
not complaining young men.
Speaker 2 (14:38):
One is in college. I make a joke.
Speaker 1 (14:40):
I go, I've got a college student and a mechanic
running my business. They are more thorough more communicative, more organized,
more on top of it make me feel more safe
than people that have decades of experience and have been
making six figures.
Speaker 2 (14:55):
Like well, into six figures.
Speaker 1 (14:56):
I am upside down because I keep waiting for the
other shooto fall and it's not like they're crushing. I
just have to say to take this into your business
or your life, or your household or whatever however this
applies to you. I just want you to know that
you could be spending so much more money than you
need to because you have people in positions and you
(15:19):
think they're sort of either supervising or managing, and then
you realize, wait a second, if I'm micromanaging the person
that's managing these other people, why don't I just manage
these other people.
Speaker 2 (15:30):
It's the same amount of work. It's a path of
least resistance.
Speaker 1 (15:32):
Get these expensive seasoned all delegating farming out people out.
(15:54):
A lot of times you think that someone's working, but
what they're really just doing is farming it out. And
you could see it like they are based like a
contractor in your own business. You're watching them, You're watching
you ask them to do something and then then farm
it out to someone else, them delegated someone else. You're like, well,
I could have asked that person to do that. What
are you doing? Like you have to really stop down
in your business and say what exactly are these people
(16:17):
doing and be able to follow the breadcrumbs track it
because I started to think, I don't know, like it
feels like this person is just like farming everything out,
and then you find out that those people were doing
all the actual work. This person was just saying to them,
go get that done. But they had all the contacts,
they had all the relationships, they were doing it. It's insane.
(16:39):
It's insane, which is said, what's happened to me a
couple of times now. So I always go for the
shiny objects and I really learn my lesson. You know,
they're like grown men, particularly of a certain era and age,
because they're old school drive buzzed like I've seen it.
I've saw it twice on dates where I had to
stop the person I want to get out of the car,
(17:00):
like I'm not managing someone else's alcohol intake. I'm not
looking at exactly how many drinks they had. I know
how many drinks I had. I was on a date
and I had half a martini and then I had
two glasses of wine. And for me, like that's a lot.
That's too much, Like half a martini and one glass
of wine would be okay, but like, you know, whatever
I was feeling myself. The point is, I know that
I felt that I was too much. I'm not babysitting
(17:23):
and counting someone else's drinks. But then I've been in
a car with someone where they either look down at
their phone or they're acting a little sloppy, not quite swerving,
but like one guy like went through he didn't go
through a stops and we're at a stop sign and
he went through like a very busy street, but like
it was too close for comfort, and I was like,
are you It was just driving a little like slightly
(17:44):
recklessly and it freaked me out and I said something
after I actually was he was someone who was in
the core, very successful catch and a half, and I
was like that made me feel really uncomfortable and really unsafe.
Another time, someone like outside I was waiting to get
an uber I think it was or my car to come.
They got an uber and they left before me. I
(18:06):
was thinking, like, I'm standing outside on a street. I
don't care if it's old fashioned. Men need to make
women feel safe in dating, but otherwise, like I did
not feel safe getting into a car with someone who
I think might have had too much to drink, and
they're like driving, they're not taking an uber, Like, what
the fuck is wrong with you? I went crazy on one.
I was like, I am my entire life to my daughter.
(18:28):
Also and it's not the primary concern at all, But
I'm like, I'm also a public person. I also invented
a cocktail, primarily first and foremost, Like I'm a human being.
I'm a single mother. Like, also, not about me, that's
being selfish? What about the other person? What about other
people in other cars? Like you could hit someone. It's
so like men in their fifties to think that they're
(18:49):
invincible because they grew up when like there were no seatbelts,
there was no break light. People just mothers drank and
smoked while pregnant, like it was a different era. But
these guys, especially, I mean not especially especially, what the
fuck is wrong with me? I was gonna say, if
they can afford to taken uber. Anybody that I would
go out with could probably afford to take an uber.
I mean, I don't I don't know. I just was
(19:10):
so aggravated and irritated. It is such an incredible itch
turn off. Disgusted what goes on with people like who's
still even as buzzed and drives? Who has like two
drinks like alcohol drinks and drives? And I even think
like two wines is pushing it, because sometimes something could
hit you sideways. You didn't eat your hormonal like you.
(19:30):
Maybe a man worked out a lot, he's dehydrated. Like,
alcohol can really affect people in different ways, and it
can hit differently on different days. I would say anything
more than like a drink or drink and a half
for a grown man, you need to be fucking taken uber.
Speaker 2 (19:44):
Some might agree one drink. I don't know.
Speaker 1 (19:45):
I'd love to hear what you have to say about it.
I'm not the one driving when I go out with
these people, but I don't believe it. No, I wouldn't
get in a car and drive more than one drink,
Like one glass of wine really pissed me off off
