According to Emmy-winning producer Patrick McDonald, getting sober behind the scenes of a Bravo hit isn’t just a personal victory—it’s a production problem. Britney Spears was spotted touching down in Mexico for yet another seaside escape—but it wasn’t her outfit that caught fans’ attention. It was the baby doll wrapped in a pink blanket, clutched tightly by a man in her entourage. The Men in Black star’s highly anticipated comeback album Based On A True Story has flopped hard, selling just 268 physical copies in the UK and failing to even crack the Billboard 200 in the U.S.
Rob is joined by his dear pal Garrett Vogel from Elvis Duran and the Morning Show with all the scoop. Don't forget to vote in today's poll on Twitter at @naughtynicerob or in our Facebook group.

Speaker 1 (00:12):
It's no no love. Hello, welcome you to the naughty
ver nic sham your house to rub Shooter. And it's
Monday morning, which means our dear friend Garrett Vogel joins us. Hey, Garret,
are you there?
Speaker 2 (00:23):
Bob?
Speaker 3 (00:24):
Hello? Good morning? How was your weekend?
Speaker 1 (00:26):
Really lovely? My sister was visiting from London. Ooh, so
she came in on Thursday, Friday, Saturday and she flew
back Sunday night. We had so much fun. We won't
see a few shows. Bery Boop the musical. Have you
seen this Boop? No?
Speaker 3 (00:37):
No?
Speaker 2 (00:37):
But I mean I grew up on the cartoon? How
how is the live action on brilliant?
Speaker 1 (00:42):
Brilliant? It was absolutely brilliant. She starts as a cartoon,
so it's all black and white, and then she comes
to our world a little bit like Barbie. She leaves
Boopland and she comes to our world and it all
turns to color like the Wizard of Ours. Is absolutely brilliant.
I gotta say she's a breakout star Jasin. I think
her name is Oh my goodness. She looks like Boops.
(01:03):
She moves like Boops. Boom boom boo boo boom. It
just adorable. So me and Christine had a lovely time.
What did you do this weekend?
Speaker 3 (01:10):
Solo?
Speaker 2 (01:11):
I'm a bachelor this weekend, the family is on a
little spring break because the kids don't have school, and
went to the kids went to Florida and oh, I
stayed in a lovely state of New Jersey.
Speaker 1 (01:23):
I love New Jersey. I love New Jersey. I'd be
a little worried that you look so sharp today if
I was your wife whilst she's away. It looks like
you've had a hair cut, you've grown a beard.
Speaker 3 (01:32):
Well good, no not?
Speaker 2 (01:34):
You know what it is, rob shooter because the comments
alone and I don't get to experience it as much
as you do. But once we start doing these things online,
people have have some choice words, as if they are
your own personal assistance of sorts of going.
Speaker 3 (01:52):
You know, your hair could be a little.
Speaker 1 (01:54):
Bit like I think it comes from love. People want
us to look know and you know what.
Speaker 3 (01:58):
They probably say it in the nice tones, But do
you think the way I read it.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
Is don't read it in a voice. I always read
I read mean comments, all comments in a nice voice. Okay,
let's jump into ash Yeah, what time is it? My
friends and is tea time big story at the top
of the show, So a producer from Bravo is coming
forward saying that talent on the show are actually actually
punished when they get sober. So full disclosure here. He's
(02:22):
an Emmy Award winning producer, Patrick McDonald. He was a
producer on my show, The Gossip Table. I know Patrick
really well, super smart, super talented, has talked about his demons,
has had some terrible issues himself with sobriety. Then he
got a job on the Housewives, and then they sort
of like pushed him to one side once it was
revealed that he had started an only Fans page. For
(02:44):
people that don't know what only Fans is. It's a
subscription based service where you pay money and you get
access to often very X rated content. So Patrick has
started this page. Bravo doesn't like that. Well, now that
Patrick has basically been five. If you get fired, if
you get pushed out, if you're angry, you tell your story.
So guess who's swooped in. Guess who swooped in to
(03:06):
what she was save the day? Who would beany fr
Bethany Frankel, You've got it right, So Bethany reached out
to Patrick. Of course she did and swered come on
the podcast, and then she asked him really good but
probing questions about Bravo. She knew all the answers, and
she got him to say, basically that everything is amplified
on the show and it's mind for entertainment, including people's
(03:30):
substance abuse and problems. Patrick said, it was really hard
to work on that. That's serious because the women are
not treated that well. And then get this, this is
a part that really broke my heart. And they had
examples and receipts. If you get sober, if you decide
you don't want to be a sloppy mess anymore, which
we should encourage people to do, you're probably going to
get demoted or fired. And there's a few examples of
(03:52):
ladies on the show who got sober and were no
longer real housewives. There were friends of housewives then pushed out.
And so this is just an ugly truth that I
think we all move Patrick, But now it's been said
out loud.
Speaker 2 (04:04):
Now do you think that. I mean, we know, like
drinking and moderation should be should be you know, tolerated
right and do it in small amounts, but in the
sake of reality TV. Sober housewives are not ratings worthy housewives,
you know what I mean. So it's kind of like,
you get sober, Yes, you're you're not as interesting as
(04:27):
when you were drinking, But the whole point of why
you signed up is because you will have these lavish personalities.
And I'm not saying that they need to drink, but
I can understand why they kind of get pushed out
because they're not as entertaining.
Speaker 3 (04:42):
You know.
Speaker 1 (04:42):
Yeah, if you if you want train wreck TV, you
need a train wreck, and the best one of the
best ways to get a train wreck is to hire
train recks and then pour alcohol into the situation. It's
like gasoline on a fire. So this is where I
think Bravo has to have some really big internal conversations.
When the Housewives started, it was that's just ridiculous, and
we're in a different place and we enjoyed how messy
(05:04):
it was. But now I think the world has changed
a little bit with me too, with all the other
other things that are going on in the world, and
Bravos sort of want Housewives at least to be perceived
it's almost a little bit more classy, and I think
part of this is Bravo is owned by NBC. NBC
is a really serious news organization. I'm not sure NBC
(05:24):
want these drunken ladis. A lot of them have gone
to jail. There's even been a suicide on the show,
and so all that was fun when it was just Bravo.
But now this mergers going forward, where NBC is getting
rid of some of their channels, they're going to keep Bravo.
It's about advertisers. That's what I learned very very quickly
about working on television. I thought initially are so naive.
(05:44):
I thought it was about great content, really being funny
and witty and breaking stories. No, it's about provided content,
the low the producers, the company to sell ads. It's
about ads. In fact, the content is just an excuse
to make money. They don't really.
Speaker 2 (06:03):
Care this podcast. This podcast means nothing. That's because we
care about the content. If we stopped caring about the content,
it just did really boring stories that plugged advertisers products.
I've got a great story about a new vacuum cleaner, Garrett.
Speaker 1 (06:19):
If we did those type of stories, nobody would listen.
And I'm more interested in the naughties than I am
actually making any money from this. So it is a
dilemma that shows have, and you've got to be clever
about it. You've got to walk that line. I think
you've got to give good enough content that it's great,
and also you don't want to really make your advertisers.
Speaker 3 (06:38):
Angry, right of course.
Speaker 2 (06:39):
I mean they're the ones that keep the bill, your
life phone, turned on, the lights on, your mortgage paid.
Speaker 3 (06:45):
So I get it, under I understand it.
Speaker 2 (06:47):
But do you think we're at the point where the
Housewives need to retire?
Speaker 3 (06:51):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (06:52):
I'm over it a little bit. What I used to
love about the Housewives was what I loved about the
first five years of American Idol. It was really really wrong.
Like we used to laugh at people on Idol who
couldn't sing, who probably had mental health challenges and thought
they were great singers. I met William Hung, remember William.
That isn't funny. Now if somebody came on who was
(07:13):
clearly struggling and they were humiliated in front of everybody,
I don't think I want to watch that anymore. So
I've changed, not just not just society has changed. What
I found funny ten years ago. I don't kind of
find so funny.
Speaker 2 (07:26):
Funny you say American Idol because I started watching it
again because you know, you want that family show on
a sunlight and it just seems like given they just
got rid of the bed, and it's like you just
come on, you sing, and everybody's like, yes, yes, you're
going through, you're going through, or it's like I'm gonna
say no, but if the other two say yes, you're
(07:46):
going through.
Speaker 3 (07:47):
So it felt like everybody that at least.
Speaker 2 (07:48):
Was on camera this season we got to just see
them go through, you know.
Speaker 3 (07:54):
So it's kind of like there was no ex You need.
Speaker 1 (07:57):
Some conflict, You need some conflict, and you've got to
It's always a bad I'm notaty but nice. If I
was just nice, i'd be boring and nice. I'm not
ey but nice. And if I was just you married,
it never never, never, But I like nice to, which
brings us to our Pooh question. After day, producers are
saying that brother punishes cast cast members for getting sober. Wow,
(08:17):
that's a big allegation. Do you believe it is? This producer? Right? Hey,
yes or no? Go vote on our Twitter page. I
had naughty nice Arboro Facebook Page's Naughty gossip. I'm sure
to check back tomorrow to hear your results. Hey Garrett Love,
what are you working on.
Speaker 2 (08:33):
I don't know if you saw this over the weekend,
but Britney spears. You know, she's got the money, she
could travel whenever and wherever she wants. But she seems
to have this h this love for Mexico. You know,
she seems to be in Mexico a lot. But so
she was spotted coming off. I would believe her private jet.
She's not flying Jet Blue or United or private jet,
(08:54):
private jet, but she was with her would look to
be like a bodyguard based off of the guy's stature.
And it seems that the bodyguard was holding at first
it looks like a baby, and people were like, Brittany, Brittany.
Speaker 3 (09:07):
Has a baby. But if you zoom in, it's a
it's a.
Speaker 2 (09:10):
Doll, it's a it's a it's a it's a fake,
it's a it's not even.
Speaker 3 (09:14):
A real baby. But but Brittany, look, calm uh.
Speaker 2 (09:19):
The the very burly bodyguard with big arms holding a
plastic baby pretty much wrapped in a lot a little
odd and maybe it's a comfort thing, I don't know,
but you know, or maybe it's a comfort, a comfort
doll for the bodyguard, so.
Speaker 1 (09:33):
Heaby it's his doll. You know, she has had her
dolls for a long time. She's had these dolls for
a really long time. She finds them very comforting. You know,
I don't judge all this stuff. If flying you might
get a little anxious, if there's something that makes you
a little happier when you get on the flight or
when you leave home. A lot of these stars and
they're a home, they're on the road, Britney is on vacation.
Speaker 3 (09:55):
You know.
Speaker 1 (09:56):
I think we all have our little quirks. Mine is
Crayon's Crayola crayons, and I've always got one in my pocket.
And if i feel a little bit anxious, I smell
it and it reminds me of being back home as
a child. It reminds me of been four or five
years old. The smell of a crayon just makes me happy.
It brings the smiles to my face. So that's all
(10:16):
my little quirk. Do you have a quirk or do
you carry money?
Speaker 3 (10:21):
Money?
Speaker 2 (10:21):
No one carries money. Money, money, that's what no money.
I wish. Please, I don't need to be jumped as
I walked up now everybody coming down the west side
by the naughties, and no for me, I would say, well,
I mean growing up, I had that like that comfort blanket,
you know, yeah, like a little blue blanket that pretty
(10:44):
much was you know, was it right there? I'm sure
it's somewhere my parents out so I really look for it.
Speaker 1 (10:50):
But it should be in the Smithsonian. Let's get hold
of that guarantee. Sounds great. People have little quirks, like
my wedding ring gives me a lot of pleasure. I
find when I get a little nervous, I play with
my wedding ring and it just reminds me it's one
of those three band rings, and so I can sort
of roll it on my finger and it gives me
a lot of comfort. It makes me happy. I think.
Speaker 2 (11:09):
You do you use your wedding ring as a gauge
to how much you're like if you put on any weight.
Speaker 1 (11:15):
Oh no, because it never comes off, so you know
what I mean.
Speaker 3 (11:18):
So if it becomes loose like like.
Speaker 1 (11:20):
That's a good thing. I sort of grow around it.
Like you know, sometimes you see a tree that's got
a wire around it, and the tree explodes around this wire.
Whatever that's the sort of way I look at it.
But I think we all have little comforts. We know
Britney struggles and if a doll plastic dolls make her happy,
if this is her happy place, good for you, Brittany. Okay,
moving long, So this is quite explosive. So a publicist
(11:43):
text about Blake Lively were leaked, and this is what
sort of exploded in the New York Times. Now that
publicist is making clear that she did not leak these texts,
but they were subpeanut So Stephanie Jones, who I've known
for a long time, she reps Tom Brady, a really
smart person. She's been dragged into this Blake Lively just
in Baldoni suit which will not go away. And she
(12:04):
was branded as like a backstapping publicist, somebody that had
leaked damning text to the New York Times as part
of like a revenge plot. Well, now it's been made
very very clear that that did not happen. She didn't
just send texts to the New York Times. They were supoened.
So Blake's people subpoenaed these texts. When you get a subpoena,
(12:27):
you can't say no. If I ask Garrett for his texts.
He can say no. I'd be furious, but he can
say no. If a judge asks you, they don't ask.
If a judge tell, if a court tells you, you
have to hand them over. So Stephanie here has been
painted as a villain, as like a gossipy goose, someone
(12:48):
behind the scenes, leaking information, planting bad stories. That isn't
how it happened. This was legal compliance. This was not
a calculated risk. It makes it diff from Scarett.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
Oh, of course. But but now, yeah, I mean, we're
so far into this. I mean, this is this is
the worst game of telephone ever played in the history
of the game telephone, you know what I mean? Where
it started out with one thing and then look where
Look where we're.
Speaker 3 (13:13):
At right now. We're not even at Lake and Justin anymore.
Speaker 2 (13:15):
We're at the publicists who had a hand over their
text because the court ordered them to. But we're way
past that because months ago we figured the publishers leap
the text.
Speaker 3 (13:27):
But you can't. We can't walk that back.
Speaker 1 (13:29):
You can't walk it back. It's so messy. You two
settle this. You got to destroy each other, okay, quickly
before we get a break. Yes, what is going on
with Will Smith? Trying to make it come back and
not going away?
Speaker 3 (13:40):
Yeah, listen to this.
Speaker 2 (13:41):
So he put out an album just about a couple
of weeks ago, first album in a very, very long time.
We're talking like nineties was the last time we really
put out an album. Yes, he put out songs like
men in Black, but his actual album. Guess how many
copies he sold.
Speaker 1 (13:56):
In the UK? Twenty thousand copies.
Speaker 2 (13:59):
Minus a few zeros. Try two hundred and sixty eight copies.
That is that physical copies, actual physical copies. Now is
streaming could be different, but actual physical copies two hundred
and sixty eight. I think people still haven't gotten over
the Oscar slap, which is weird because to me it
(14:20):
feels like it was ages ago. But then you hear
about it, you hear Will Smith, and it's still the
first thing that comes to mind. I think you know
the Oscar slap, but it's one of those things where
you don't think about it. You don't think about this,
you don't think about Will Smith, you don't think about
the slap, so then when you hear about it, you're like,
oh wow, I totally forgot about that, so it's still
fresh in people's minds. I think will kind of miss
(14:42):
the mark on this album, you know, but I think
you tried to do something different to get away from
movies for the time being and concentrate over there.
Speaker 3 (14:52):
But some people just can't let it go.
Speaker 1 (14:54):
Yeah, it felt like a distraction, like he was doing
it to distract us. But now the distraction is going
to be that it really it didn't just underperform this
outright bomb. Oh yeah, yeah, Okay, we're going to take
a quick break and we will be right back looking
back to the naughty of the nice your hostel shooter
with her do your friend, Garrett. Let's get to the polls.
(15:20):
I don't have today's pole in my script, so let
me quickly find it here. It's on Instagram.
Speaker 3 (15:27):
The wrong We went to the wrong poll.
Speaker 1 (15:30):
Do I do not do the poll today? I don't
see the pole. Well, unfortunately, forgive us, we do not
have today's polls results. Sloppy, sluppy, sloppy, sloppy. What you vote,
if you voted, is the right pole. Okay, don't forget
to vote. Don't forget vote. It's terrible, it's terrible. It's terrible.
(15:50):
Today's Go to our Twitter page at Naughty Nice rob
go to our Facebook page Naughty Gossip, and I promise
tomorrow I'll be buttoned up enough to actually give you
the results. Sloppy, sluppy, sloppy Roberts. Check that tomorrow to
hear your results. And now it's time for and nicest
of the jaz Yes.
Speaker 2 (16:11):
Well, normally you don't hear about this, but Megan Markle's
sharing a rare glimpse of her children Archie and Lila
Bet in a sweet little gift from Papa Prince Harry,
of course, and it's involving as a prize treat from Dad,
and in a short clip posted on Instagram Stories. So
it didn't stay forever obviously, so you had to see
(16:33):
it or else you missed it. But you know, it
is the tabloids and it is the Royals, so it
lives on forever. We got it's supposed to be gone
before you know it. So in the clip you saw
a tiny set of hands believed to be Lila Bet
and Archies and they can be seen passing around a
large slice of cake, which I'm sure Megan maid in
her kitchen with a friend.
Speaker 3 (16:55):
You know. Four hours Prior.
Speaker 2 (16:57):
To that, here's what the cat and said, a special
gift Papa brought back from the Ukraine with a heart
emoji and uh, you know yeah, and it's referring to
Prince Harry's recent humanitarian visit to the Ukraine. So you
know it's I think things like that normalize the Celebritiness
(17:19):
city in everybody, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1 (17:22):
They do let people in a little bit, let people
and that's a good philosophy. If you go on a
date or with your with your friends, let people into
your lives. They don't want to hurt you. People. Most
people are really good and the more you know about
each other, the more you love. And so I think
this is just lovely and nicest of the day. And
I noticed the day naughty, naughty, random Sclena, who was
(17:46):
in the Blake Lively movie It ends with us. He's
back out there.
Speaker 3 (17:51):
Doing another one guy not in trouble.
Speaker 1 (17:53):
He's the one person who is not in trouble. People
say it's a really really good guy and he actually
does not want to really get involved in the Blake
just in drama at all. But people are clapping at
him really aggressively, calling him a Walmart Glen Powell. So
if you know who Glenn Powell is from the top
Fabulous Top Gun movies. He's super super sexy, he's always shirtless,
(18:17):
and they're saying Brandon is like a Walmart version of him. Well,
Brandon is clapping back. He saw it, and this was
his response. This is why he wins should win the
nicest of the day as well as the person who
said this is the naughtiest of the day. He wrote back,
who doesn't love a bargain? Oh great, it's so great.
(18:38):
Instead of getting nasty and really angry about this, are insulted.
I think this is the perfect response. Just lovely.
Speaker 3 (18:46):
I am the Walmart Rob Shooter.
Speaker 1 (18:49):
I'm the Walmart Andy Cohen. So there you go. So
it all adds up. It goes in turtles. Hey, let's
end with a moment. Rub. If you have the courage
to start, you have the courage to succeed, because starting
is the hardest part. This means stepping into the unknown,
facing your fears, and even risking failure. If you start
(19:10):
something garret, you could fail at it. It's scary. But
if you have the courage to take that first step,
then you already have the courage to win, to go
the distance, because courage isn't a one time thing. It's
a choice that you make over and over again and again,
(19:30):
especially when it's hard. So trust this. If you are
brave enough to begin, you are brave enough to win.
You can win this. Look, you can win this noughties,
but you've got to begin. If you're brave enough to begin,
you are brave enough to win. Hey, that's it for today.

a little worried that you look so sharp today if
I was your wife whilst she's away. It looks like
you've had a hair cut, you've grown a beard.
Speaker 3 (01:32):
Well good, no not?
Speaker 2 (01:34):
You know what it is, rob shooter because the comments
alone and I don't get to experience it as much
as you do. But once we start doing these things online,
people have have some choice words, as if they are
your own personal assistance of sorts of going.
Speaker 3 (01:52):
You know, your hair could be a little.
Speaker 1 (01:54):
Bit like I think it comes from love. People want
us to look know and you know what.
Speaker 3 (01:58):
They probably say it in the nice tones, But do
you think the way I read it.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
Is don't read it in a voice. I always read
I read mean comments, all comments in a nice voice. Okay,
let's jump into ash Yeah, what time is it? My
friends and is tea time big story at the top
of the show, So a producer from Bravo is coming
forward saying that talent on the show are actually actually
punished when they get sober. So full disclosure here. He's
(02:22):
an Emmy Award winning producer, Patrick McDonald. He was a
producer on my show, The Gossip Table. I know Patrick
really well, super smart, super talented, has talked about his demons,
has had some terrible issues himself with sobriety. Then he
got a job on the Housewives, and then they sort
of like pushed him to one side once it was
revealed that he had started an only Fans page. For
(02:44):
people that don't know what only Fans is. It's a
subscription based service where you pay money and you get
access to often very X rated content. So Patrick has
started this page. Bravo doesn't like that. Well, now that
Patrick has basically been five. If you get fired, if
you get pushed out, if you're angry, you tell your story.
So guess who's swooped in. Guess who swooped in to
(03:06):
what she was save the day? Who would beany fr
Bethany Frankel, You've got it right, So Bethany reached out
to Patrick. Of course she did and swered come on
the podcast, and then she asked him really good but
probing questions about Bravo. She knew all the answers, and
she got him to say, basically that everything is amplified
on the show and it's mind for entertainment, including people's
(03:30):
substance abuse and problems. Patrick said, it was really hard
to work on that. That's serious because the women are
not treated that well. And then get this, this is
a part that really broke my heart. And they had
examples and receipts. If you get sober, if you decide
you don't want to be a sloppy mess anymore, which
we should encourage people to do, you're probably going to
get demoted or fired. And there's a few examples of
(03:52):
ladies on the show who got sober and were no
longer real housewives. There were friends of housewives then pushed out.
And so this is just an ugly truth that I
think we all move Patrick, But now it's been said
out loud.
Speaker 2 (04:04):
Now do you think that. I mean, we know, like
drinking and moderation should be should be you know, tolerated
right and do it in small amounts, but in the
sake of reality TV. Sober housewives are not ratings worthy housewives,
you know what I mean. So it's kind of like,
you get sober, Yes, you're you're not as interesting as
(04:27):
when you were drinking, But the whole point of why
you signed up is because you will have these lavish personalities.
And I'm not saying that they need to drink, but
I can understand why they kind of get pushed out
because they're not as entertaining.
Speaker 3 (04:42):
You know.
Speaker 1 (04:42):
Yeah, if you if you want train wreck TV, you
need a train wreck, and the best one of the
best ways to get a train wreck is to hire
train recks and then pour alcohol into the situation. It's
like gasoline on a fire. So this is where I
think Bravo has to have some really big internal conversations.
When the Housewives started, it was that's just ridiculous, and
we're in a different place and we enjoyed how messy
(05:04):
it was. But now I think the world has changed
a little bit with me too, with all the other
other things that are going on in the world, and
Bravos sort of want Housewives at least to be perceived
it's almost a little bit more classy, and I think
part of this is Bravo is owned by NBC. NBC
is a really serious news organization. I'm not sure NBC
(05:24):
want these drunken ladis. A lot of them have gone
to jail. There's even been a suicide on the show,
and so all that was fun when it was just Bravo.
But now this mergers going forward, where NBC is getting
rid of some of their channels, they're going to keep Bravo.
It's about advertisers. That's what I learned very very quickly
about working on television. I thought initially are so naive.
(05:44):
I thought it was about great content, really being funny
and witty and breaking stories. No, it's about provided content,
the low the producers, the company to sell ads. It's
about ads. In fact, the content is just an excuse
to make money. They don't really.
Speaker 2 (06:03):
Care this podcast. This podcast means nothing. That's because we
care about the content. If we stopped caring about the content,
it just did really boring stories that plugged advertisers products.
I've got a great story about a new vacuum cleaner, Garrett.
Speaker 1 (06:19):
If we did those type of stories, nobody would listen.
And I'm more interested in the naughties than I am
actually making any money from this. So it is a
dilemma that shows have, and you've got to be clever
about it. You've got to walk that line. I think
you've got to give good enough content that it's great,
and also you don't want to really make your advertisers.
Speaker 3 (06:38):
Angry, right of course.
Speaker 2 (06:39):
I mean they're the ones that keep the bill, your
life phone, turned on, the lights on, your mortgage paid.
Speaker 3 (06:45):
So I get it, under I understand it.
Speaker 2 (06:47):
But do you think we're at the point where the
Housewives need to retire?
Speaker 3 (06:51):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (06:52):
I'm over it a little bit. What I used to
love about the Housewives was what I loved about the
first five years of American Idol. It was really really wrong.
Like we used to laugh at people on Idol who
couldn't sing, who probably had mental health challenges and thought
they were great singers. I met William Hung, remember William.
That isn't funny. Now if somebody came on who was
(07:13):
clearly struggling and they were humiliated in front of everybody,
I don't think I want to watch that anymore. So
I've changed, not just not just society has changed. What
I found funny ten years ago. I don't kind of
find so funny.
Speaker 2 (07:26):
Funny you say American Idol because I started watching it
again because you know, you want that family show on
a sunlight and it just seems like given they just
got rid of the bed, and it's like you just
come on, you sing, and everybody's like, yes, yes, you're
going through, you're going through, or it's like I'm gonna
say no, but if the other two say yes, you're
(07:46):
going through.
Speaker 3 (07:47):
So it felt like everybody that at least.
Speaker 2 (07:48):
Was on camera this season we got to just see
them go through, you know.
Speaker 3 (07:54):
So it's kind of like there was no ex You need.
Speaker 1 (07:57):
Some conflict, You need some conflict, and you've got to
It's always a bad I'm notaty but nice. If I
was just nice, i'd be boring and nice. I'm not
ey but nice. And if I was just you married,
it never never, never, But I like nice to, which
brings us to our Pooh question. After day, producers are
saying that brother punishes cast cast members for getting sober. Wow,
(08:17):
that's a big allegation. Do you believe it is? This producer? Right? Hey,
yes or no? Go vote on our Twitter page. I
had naughty nice Arboro Facebook Page's Naughty gossip. I'm sure
to check back tomorrow to hear your results. Hey Garrett Love,
what are you working on.
Speaker 2 (08:33):
I don't know if you saw this over the weekend,
but Britney spears. You know, she's got the money, she
could travel whenever and wherever she wants. But she seems
to have this h this love for Mexico. You know,
she seems to be in Mexico a lot. But so
she was spotted coming off. I would believe her private jet.
She's not flying Jet Blue or United or private jet,
(08:54):
private jet, but she was with her would look to
be like a bodyguard based off of the guy's stature.
And it seems that the bodyguard was holding at first
it looks like a baby, and people were like, Brittany, Brittany.
Speaker 3 (09:07):
Has a baby. But if you zoom in, it's a
it's a.
Speaker 2 (09:10):
Doll, it's a it's a it's a it's a fake,
it's a it's not even.
Speaker 3 (09:14):
A real baby. But but Brittany, look, calm uh.
Speaker 2 (09:19):
The the very burly bodyguard with big arms holding a
plastic baby pretty much wrapped in a lot a little
odd and maybe it's a comfort thing, I don't know,
but you know, or maybe it's a comfort, a comfort
doll for the bodyguard, so.
Speaker 1 (09:33):
Heaby it's his doll. You know, she has had her
dolls for a long time. She's had these dolls for
a really long time. She finds them very comforting. You know,
I don't judge all this stuff. If flying you might
get a little anxious, if there's something that makes you
a little happier when you get on the flight or
when you leave home. A lot of these stars and
they're a home, they're on the road, Britney is on vacation.
Speaker 3 (09:55):
You know.
Speaker 1 (09:56):
I think we all have our little quirks. Mine is
Crayon's Crayola crayons, and I've always got one in my pocket.
And if i feel a little bit anxious, I smell
it and it reminds me of being back home as
a child. It reminds me of been four or five
years old. The smell of a crayon just makes me happy.
It brings the smiles to my face. So that's all
(10:16):
my little quirk. Do you have a quirk or do
you carry money?
Speaker 3 (10:21):
Money?
Speaker 2 (10:21):
No one carries money. Money, money, that's what no money.
I wish. Please, I don't need to be jumped as
I walked up now everybody coming down the west side
by the naughties, and no for me, I would say, well,
I mean growing up, I had that like that comfort blanket,
you know, yeah, like a little blue blanket that pretty
(10:44):
much was you know, was it right there? I'm sure
it's somewhere my parents out so I really look for it.
Speaker 1 (10:50):
But it should be in the Smithsonian. Let's get hold
of that guarantee. Sounds great. People have little quirks, like
my wedding ring gives me a lot of pleasure. I
find when I get a little nervous, I play with
my wedding ring and it just reminds me it's one
of those three band rings, and so I can sort
of roll it on my finger and it gives me
a lot of comfort. It makes me happy. I think.
Speaker 2 (11:09):
You do you use your wedding ring as a gauge
to how much you're like if you put on any weight.
Speaker 1 (11:15):
Oh no, because it never comes off, so you know
what I mean.
Speaker 3 (11:18):
So if it becomes loose like like.
Speaker 1 (11:20):
That's a good thing. I sort of grow around it.
Like you know, sometimes you see a tree that's got
a wire around it, and the tree explodes around this wire.
Whatever that's the sort of way I look at it.
But I think we all have little comforts. We know
Britney struggles and if a doll plastic dolls make her happy,
if this is her happy place, good for you, Brittany. Okay,
moving long, So this is quite explosive. So a publicist
(11:43):
text about Blake Lively were leaked, and this is what
sort of exploded in the New York Times. Now that
publicist is making clear that she did not leak these texts,
but they were subpeanut So Stephanie Jones, who I've known
for a long time, she reps Tom Brady, a really
smart person. She's been dragged into this Blake Lively just
in Baldoni suit which will not go away. And she
(12:04):
was branded as like a backstapping publicist, somebody that had
leaked damning text to the New York Times as part
of like a revenge plot. Well, now it's been made
very very clear that that did not happen. She didn't
just send texts to the New York Times. They were supoened.
So Blake's people subpoenaed these texts. When you get a subpoena,
(12:27):
you can't say no. If I ask Garrett for his texts.
He can say no. I'd be furious, but he can
say no. If a judge asks you, they don't ask.
If a judge tell, if a court tells you, you
have to hand them over. So Stephanie here has been
painted as a villain, as like a gossipy goose, someone
(12:48):
behind the scenes, leaking information, planting bad stories. That isn't
how it happened. This was legal compliance. This was not
a calculated risk. It makes it diff from Scarett.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
Oh, of course. But but now, yeah, I mean, we're
so far into this. I mean, this is this is
the worst game of telephone ever played in the history
of the game telephone, you know what I mean? Where
it started out with one thing and then look where
Look where we're.
Speaker 3 (13:13):
At right now. We're not even at Lake and Justin anymore.
Speaker 2 (13:15):
We're at the publicists who had a hand over their
text because the court ordered them to. But we're way
past that because months ago we figured the publishers leap
the text.
Speaker 3 (13:27):
But you can't. We can't walk that back.
Speaker 1 (13:29):
You can't walk it back. It's so messy. You two
settle this. You got to destroy each other, okay, quickly
before we get a break. Yes, what is going on
with Will Smith? Trying to make it come back and
not going away?
Speaker 3 (13:40):
Yeah, listen to this.
Speaker 2 (13:41):
So he put out an album just about a couple
of weeks ago, first album in a very, very long time.
We're talking like nineties was the last time we really
put out an album. Yes, he put out songs like
men in Black, but his actual album. Guess how many
copies he sold.
Speaker 1 (13:56):
In the UK? Twenty thousand copies.
Speaker 2 (13:59):
Minus a few zeros. Try two hundred and sixty eight copies.
That is that physical copies, actual physical copies. Now is
streaming could be different, but actual physical copies two hundred
and sixty eight. I think people still haven't gotten over
the Oscar slap, which is weird because to me it
(14:20):
feels like it was ages ago. But then you hear
about it, you hear Will Smith, and it's still the
first thing that comes to mind. I think you know
the Oscar slap, but it's one of those things where
you don't think about it. You don't think about this,
you don't think about Will Smith, you don't think about
the slap, so then when you hear about it, you're like,
oh wow, I totally forgot about that, so it's still
fresh in people's minds. I think will kind of miss
(14:42):
the mark on this album, you know, but I think
you tried to do something different to get away from
movies for the time being and concentrate over there.
Speaker 3 (14:52):
But some people just can't let it go.
Speaker 1 (14:54):
Yeah, it felt like a distraction, like he was doing
it to distract us. But now the distraction is going
to be that it really it didn't just underperform this
outright bomb. Oh yeah, yeah, Okay, we're going to take
a quick break and we will be right back looking
back to the naughty of the nice your hostel shooter
with her do your friend, Garrett. Let's get to the polls.
(15:20):
I don't have today's pole in my script, so let
me quickly find it here. It's on Instagram.
Speaker 3 (15:27):
The wrong We went to the wrong poll.
Speaker 1 (15:30):
Do I do not do the poll today? I don't
see the pole. Well, unfortunately, forgive us, we do not
have today's polls results. Sloppy, sluppy, sloppy, sloppy. What you vote,
if you voted, is the right pole. Okay, don't forget
to vote. Don't forget vote. It's terrible, it's terrible. It's terrible.
(15:50):
Today's Go to our Twitter page at Naughty Nice rob
go to our Facebook page Naughty Gossip, and I promise
tomorrow I'll be buttoned up enough to actually give you
the results. Sloppy, sluppy, sloppy Roberts. Check that tomorrow to
hear your results. And now it's time for and nicest
of the jaz Yes.
Speaker 2 (16:11):
Well, normally you don't hear about this, but Megan Markle's
sharing a rare glimpse of her children Archie and Lila
Bet in a sweet little gift from Papa Prince Harry,
of course, and it's involving as a prize treat from Dad,
and in a short clip posted on Instagram Stories. So
it didn't stay forever obviously, so you had to see
(16:33):
it or else you missed it. But you know, it
is the tabloids and it is the Royals, so it
lives on forever. We got it's supposed to be gone
before you know it. So in the clip you saw
a tiny set of hands believed to be Lila Bet
and Archies and they can be seen passing around a
large slice of cake, which I'm sure Megan maid in
her kitchen with a friend.
Speaker 3 (16:55):
You know. Four hours Prior.
Speaker 2 (16:57):
To that, here's what the cat and said, a special
gift Papa brought back from the Ukraine with a heart
emoji and uh, you know yeah, and it's referring to
Prince Harry's recent humanitarian visit to the Ukraine. So you
know it's I think things like that normalize the Celebritiness
(17:19):
city in everybody, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1 (17:22):
They do let people in a little bit, let people
and that's a good philosophy. If you go on a
date or with your with your friends, let people into
your lives. They don't want to hurt you. People. Most
people are really good and the more you know about
each other, the more you love. And so I think
this is just lovely and nicest of the day. And
I noticed the day naughty, naughty, random Sclena, who was
(17:46):
in the Blake Lively movie It ends with us. He's
back out there.
Speaker 3 (17:51):
Doing another one guy not in trouble.
Speaker 1 (17:53):
He's the one person who is not in trouble. People
say it's a really really good guy and he actually
does not want to really get involved in the Blake
just in drama at all. But people are clapping at
him really aggressively, calling him a Walmart Glen Powell. So
if you know who Glenn Powell is from the top
Fabulous Top Gun movies. He's super super sexy, he's always shirtless,
(18:17):
and they're saying Brandon is like a Walmart version of him. Well,
Brandon is clapping back. He saw it, and this was
his response. This is why he wins should win the
nicest of the day as well as the person who
said this is the naughtiest of the day. He wrote back,
who doesn't love a bargain? Oh great, it's so great.
(18:38):
Instead of getting nasty and really angry about this, are insulted.
I think this is the perfect response. Just lovely.
Speaker 3 (18:46):
I am the Walmart Rob Shooter.
Speaker 1 (18:49):
I'm the Walmart Andy Cohen. So there you go. So
it all adds up. It goes in turtles. Hey, let's
end with a moment. Rub. If you have the courage
to start, you have the courage to succeed, because starting
is the hardest part. This means stepping into the unknown,
facing your fears, and even risking failure. If you start
(19:10):
something garret, you could fail at it. It's scary. But
if you have the courage to take that first step,
then you already have the courage to win, to go
the distance, because courage isn't a one time thing. It's
a choice that you make over and over again and again,
(19:30):
especially when it's hard. So trust this. If you are
brave enough to begin, you are brave enough to win.
You can win this. Look, you can win this noughties,
but you've got to begin. If you're brave enough to begin,
you are brave enough to win. Hey, that's it for today.
