Chanel Ayan, one of the most iconic faithfuls from Season 3, tells us how she got the job in the first place! Having never watched the game and given a 3 days notice isn’t ideal, but she made it work (thanks to a little advice from Andy Cohen).
And, Ayan tells us her favorite BTS stories. What did she say that made Alan Cumming laugh out loud in her one-on-one interview? What did she think when people kept calling themselves ‘Survivors’? Would she ever go back to the castle?!

to feature on the cover of a Dubai based magazine

like that.

They want you know. It's funny, you know, like we
just like the the retribute, like when they come after you,
the Vigilanteina Jersey. You can never live again. They hate
you forever.
Speaker 4 (01:27):
Listen, if Walmart gave me all free clothes, I'd wear them.
Go for it.
Speaker 2 (01:30):
You just stepped up. It just looked a little bit
better this season, because usually you guys look like bad.
Speaker 4 (01:35):
But this bro more relaxed. Where we live in Orange County. Yeah,
have a kickback, chill area.
Speaker 3 (01:41):
I didn't think I looked good.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
You looked very good twenty four seven. Oh my course,
really good.
Speaker 4 (01:48):
And I was just being that's all right, I love bitches.
Let's get into your Traders experience. Yes, yes, that was
pretty amazing.
Speaker 3 (02:00):
What being in there with you?
Speaker 4 (02:01):
Oh so you guys, you're you have a whole bond here?
Speaker 2 (02:06):
Yes, yes, together, we have a whole bond. So me
and the Lotus already know each other. So Douras is
the first person when I joined Housewives called me to
wish me good luck.
Speaker 4 (02:17):
How do you guys know each other?
Speaker 3 (02:19):
How did you guys know?
Speaker 2 (02:20):
She just messaged me on Instagram?
Speaker 4 (02:21):
Oh okay, when you got hired housewives.
Speaker 2 (02:23):
Yes, yes, and then I sent up my number and
we spoke for like an hour with my son with
her kids, and she guided me, and I thought that
was so beautiful.
Speaker 4 (02:31):
So from them the mayor of Bravo, Yes she is,
she is. I do that too.
Speaker 2 (02:37):
Yeah, from the moment I start, before we even aired,
I already had the lotus like guiding me and yeah, yes,
I already had that. And then when it came to Welles,
oh my.
Speaker 3 (02:48):
God, Well this was a love affair between the two
of them. She loves him so much. But I like,
did you didn't you find it like difficult in the
beginning to understand the game?
Speaker 2 (03:00):
Yes, I didn't understand anything. But then god, who else
was there to guide me? You know, because I'll be
asking Well's questions? So what's happening right now? What's going on?
What are they talking about? Like I just I just
love how kind, caring, thoughtful and like took time to
guide me, help me and someone he finally funny like
(03:21):
being lost in what's happening?
Speaker 1 (03:24):
You know my favorite story of meeting you, Well, I
have too, But the first was we were the first
people to like kind of meet each other, like when
you come to the show, you kind of off to
go sit in a car with like just a couple
of people. And then those people you sit in the
car with, you're kind of with for the next couple
of days filming whenever you're coming to and fro the castle.
(03:48):
And and so when we when we when we met,
you just said, oh my god, I love your wife. Yes, yes,
good stuff.
Speaker 2 (03:58):
Oh my god, I love your She's so beautiful, she's
so funny. And so I think that's kind of like
calmed the wells down. I don't know, but I feel
like that's what happened to me. I just been like, Okay,
she loves my wife. I love my wife. Maybe we'll
get it.
Speaker 3 (04:12):
You have something in common right off the bat.
Speaker 2 (04:15):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (04:15):
And then as we're driving to like start filming, I
hadn't signed your contract yet, so there's a producer sitting
there reading the contract to her, and she didn't want
to listen to that at all, and she just wanted
to talk to me about Sarah and modern Family. And
(04:37):
the user kept on being like, you need to listen,
you need to listen to this, and I was like,
don't worry, I'm listening. I'm going to just relay all
the information. Just sign it. You'll be fine. And that's
how I got to know I am from that first day.
But I did want to ask you what made you?
What made you come on the show? Like you didn't
(04:57):
really understand it, so it's obviously not popular and do
so like what made you want to come on the show?
Speaker 2 (05:02):
Okay, so this actually happened, right, So like when you
go to your contract, I med DHD and that woman
had pages and pages to read for me, and I
just I couldn't. I just want to have fun with
you and talk about your wife, you know. But so
I was doing confession for Dubai Housewives and I was
on full glam and I just walked off confession and
I got a message from NBC saying, Hi, Chanelle, how
(05:23):
are you doing. I'm like I'm good. Would you like
to go to Traders? And I was like, oh, okay, yeah,
I would love that. What's that? Like it's a TV show?
Blah blah blah. I was like, yes, of course I
would love to go, and she goes, can you be
in Scotland in three days? In three days? I was like,
you know me, I'm like yes, I'll be there if
(05:43):
one of the days, you know, one of the days
is to do your medical test. So I was in
the hospital like most of the day doing all my
body check up and then half of the day I
don't know if you guys did that to check your brains.
If your brains was okay to go to Traders.
Speaker 4 (05:56):
Yeah, like a doctor spoke to us.
Speaker 2 (06:02):
Yes, And that woman was asking me some ridiculous questions.
I was like, I'm just lying to her.
Speaker 1 (06:09):
People.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
Yes, can you be sleep through? And yes, I don't
like not sleeping, you know. And then I remember when
I was in Scotland. I was driving to Scotland and
I messaged Andy Cohen and I was like, Andy, oh
my god, I'm doing Traitors. He goes, I know, congratulations,
and I was like, but I have no idea what
this game is goes, excuse me literally, And.
Speaker 4 (06:31):
I think even if you watch, even if you watch
the show, I still feel like it's very difficult. Like
with the missions. To me, I get confused sometimes even
when I'm watching the show.
Speaker 3 (06:41):
No, they were the easy part for me. Really, yeah.
Speaker 4 (06:45):
I didn't like that part.
Speaker 2 (06:46):
No. No, So Andy was like, you what do you
mean You've never watched the show you need to watch
the show and you can't go to a game you
don't know the show. And I was like, Andy, I'll
be fine. He was like, no, you need to ask
them to watch you. So the two days I was
in the room, they gave me like two episodes to work. Yeah,
they start with me to watch it. And I was like, Okay,
I can do this. I love this shit. You just
have to not use your brains. Nobody will know you're smart,
(07:08):
and I'm not. I don't use my brains. So I
was like, this is a puppet game for me.
Speaker 4 (07:12):
Yeah, your brains, you do see, you have many businesses.
Speaker 3 (07:16):
Exactly, and I am you don't give yourself enough credit.
And I know this because I am your very dear friend.
You were so smart. You were one of the first
people to call out Bob the drag Queen, one of
the first. And you know that could have contributed to
why maybe you got killed so early or do you
think it was just because you were a housewife, because
(07:38):
they were killing the housewives, whether they were getting things
right or not.
Speaker 2 (07:41):
No, So now I know what happened, right, because I
tell us.
Speaker 3 (07:45):
Yes.
Speaker 2 (07:45):
So I spoke to Rob and Caroline right and Caroline
told me he literally fought Bob off not killing me
for a very long time.
Speaker 3 (07:54):
Okay, Caroline did.
Speaker 2 (07:56):
Yes, Caroline, why are we killing us? She's making she's funnished,
she's just chilling like, there's no need to kill her.
Boston Robe was like, why are we killing this girl?
We just already killed the housewife, right, So all of
them didn't want to kill me, and Bob said, they're
not living until I'm dead. He's not taking anything. He
does not want anything anybody else except me. He wanted
(08:19):
me gone. But I also know why that giant man
I call him giant Man because because he's so big
and he's threatened by this little thing I am, you know,
And he was just like, you're so funny. You're so
funny every time. Oh my god, everybody likes you now
that I know who he is, and people have come
to be talk to me about it a partently. That's
his character. He tries to take people out that he
(08:41):
feels like the competition to him, camera wise, time wise
and everything. That's what she did in a drug Rupol's
drug race show. That's what everybody, from every queer person
I've met have said this to me.
Speaker 3 (08:52):
You know, okay, so so well, that's that's good to know.
But you were upset. I know that you and I
spoke and you said that you wanted to show your
son that you could stay a certain amount of time.
Speaker 2 (09:05):
Yes. Yes, it meant a lot to me because when
I told my son I was going to a game
my son loved. I was like, Mom, they're gonna kill
you first, and I'm like, please don't kill me first.
At least I was third. So that made me come
home like Touch, I died third. But then I did
come home and talk to Touch about Wells. I came
on to talk to Touch about Dylan. I came on
to talk about you, like I was like, I met
(09:27):
really good friends, Michelle. So I think I made him
speak to Wells and Dylan, and I think that kind
of like made me feel good like I got I
met friends out of this.
Speaker 3 (09:37):
Yeah. Yeah, you did a really good job. You did
an amazing job. Remember, I want you to tell everyone,
you know, when they bring us in the room and
they asked, would you like to be a traitor or faithful? Yes,
I want you to tell everyone what you said, and
I want you to tell everybody what your answer was. First,
(09:58):
and then tell them what you said.
Speaker 2 (10:00):
Oh my god, I'm not gonna lie. I don't remember
that much, but I did tell you what happened.
Speaker 3 (10:05):
Okay, so tell everyone they want to hear, trust me.
Speaker 2 (10:07):
I think they if I remember, they asked me if
I wanted to be a traitor or I actually remember
exactly I told you. What did I say?
Speaker 3 (10:17):
Said I'd rather do an orgy than be here right now?
Speaker 2 (10:21):
Yes, I did tell her to Alan. I did tell
her to Ala. Al. I was like, it was just
like a few hours in it. I was so stressed,
are you right? And it's like, do you want to
be a traitor or do you want to be a face?
I was like Alan, to be honest, I would rather
be in an orgie right now? What's happening here? And
Alan looked at me and loved so much. He's like what.
(10:43):
I was like, it looks like I've never done it,
but it's something that probably I will enjoy more than
sitting and trying to figure out I do.
Speaker 3 (10:53):
That's the next thing that you can do.
Speaker 1 (11:04):
I am constantly was cracking me out. I thought she
was amazing television and terrible on productions part letting her
go so quickly. But one of the funniest things that
I remember was, you know, obviously there are people from
Big Brother, and there are people from the Challenge, and
there are people from Survivor and all these different reality shows.
And I can tell everyone what you thought the Survivor
(11:25):
people were.
Speaker 2 (11:27):
Yeah, so you know, like, how you introduce yourself? I
was doing, like, Hi, I already know else, right because
of your wife and the house. So I'm like, Hi,
how are you doing? What's your name? Oh, I'm this
person survivor, I'm this person survivor, and this person survivor,
I'm a survivor. My issue, my thing was like why
are these white people from America saying why they survived?
(11:49):
And why they keep telling me their survivors. I was
so confused by so I'm like, what do you mean
your survivor? I'm survive, I'm survival. So when I died
and I left the house, I said to christ oh
my god, there's too many people survive there. And my
husband was, oh, it's a TV show, Survivor and such
a big in America, and everybody loves this show. But
I knew nothing about it. I told to put me
(12:11):
there because now I'm like it could be really fun.
You don't have to meet all day, you do challenges.
He's like, I am, you're not going to survive.
Speaker 3 (12:19):
And you know you, I promise you you don't want
to do that.
Speaker 1 (12:25):
Holocaust survivor something. I still makes me laugh.
Speaker 3 (12:31):
So I know, it was like like salm in America.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
Yeah. I was like, I was like, what do you
mean yourself? Because it's so hard for me as an
African person to hear people that live in America saying
the survivors because survived. So I'm thinking, I've survived malaria,
I survived typhoid survivor, but like I've had malaria. In
term those are surviving things like what do you survive
in America? Like flu?
Speaker 4 (12:54):
I have no idea how then.
Speaker 1 (12:59):
Reality TV show that's what you survive in America? Exactly,
that's not that's not the most that's if that's not
the most American thing in the world. I don't know
what is what's your survivor on a reality show?
Speaker 3 (13:13):
And uh, that's all first world problems. I guess we
call it, right, Yeah.
Speaker 1 (13:18):
Yeah, I And you know you you came in the
game not really understanding it, but obviously afterwards we all
watched it, and I think that you now have like
a firm grasp on like how to play. One would
you go back if they asked you? And two would
you be a trader?
Speaker 2 (13:35):
I would love to go back because because I feel
like I was killed for no reason. It was very
unfairly murdered, so I feel like I should have a
chance to go back. I just got a call two
days ago from the woman that booked me for Traders,
checking in and telling me I was very hysterical at Bravacon.
So I'm waiting everyone.
Speaker 3 (13:55):
You did a great job.
Speaker 2 (13:56):
Thank you. So I hope in a few weeks acond
be can you take me back. I don't know if
they would, but I would love to go back and
just really play the game. Well, you know.
Speaker 1 (14:05):
They're going to put you on the red carpet after
Bravo Khan. I saw all your stuff on social media,
interviewing everyone. You were hilarious and so good at it.
They're going to have you do red carpets for award shows.
I bet you you.
Speaker 3 (14:17):
Really think so?
Speaker 4 (14:18):
I hope you have you done it before?
Speaker 2 (14:22):
No, I didn't, but I was with Wells. We went
to watch Dancing with the Stars for Dylan, and I said, well,
you do this a lot, like this is the first
time I've ever had this job. I don't even know
what to do. I don't know most of these people.
And just tell me just look at them and ask
them questions and make them feel comfortable. Then they will
want to talk to you, you know. So I went
in with that being like to talk to them, made
them feel comfortable, asked them the questions that you would
(14:45):
want to be asked, and I just followed what Wells
told me to do. And then, because he does this
a lot, the interviews people and.
Speaker 4 (14:52):
Would you do dancing with the stars?
Speaker 2 (14:55):
Oh, I have no moves because I did money because
Max did.
Speaker 4 (14:59):
Max I did say the casting for Traders is the
same as Dancing with the Stars, So maybe that's why
she reached out to you.
Speaker 3 (15:08):
Yeah, oh, I have no idea that would be amazing
for you.
Speaker 2 (15:12):
I don't think. I don't think I can dance. Because
I went to watch Dylan, I was very impressed, like
really impressed.
Speaker 3 (15:18):
They teach you though, they teach you.
Speaker 1 (15:20):
Yeah, if you if you went back on though, would
you be a trader?
Speaker 2 (15:25):
Yes, this time, if I went back I would definitely
choose to be a trader because it's long hours. And
you know, there was one time I was sleeping under
the table and Nikki was like, why are you sleeping
a trader. I'm like, no, I am exhausted, Okay, I
needed to start.
Speaker 3 (15:38):
I remember that day your body was the length of
the table.
Speaker 2 (15:43):
Yes, I was just like.
Speaker 3 (15:44):
I was resting my feet on you when I was
sitting on the chair. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (15:48):
And you know I missed that breakfast bolt Eggs seel
every morning. The food is so bad at traders.
Speaker 3 (15:55):
It is listen. It was the bad ever everything. Yeah. No,
the food sucked, but it was so good because I
didn't eat a lot and I looked so good at
the end.
Speaker 4 (16:06):
Oh, I see, it was like a good diet my skin.
Speaker 3 (16:09):
I felt good. I was able to do the challenge
as well.
Speaker 2 (16:13):
And yeah, yeah, you guys, if you asked to go back, I.
Speaker 3 (16:18):
Would swim there. I want to go back so bad.
Speaker 4 (16:22):
With hesitation, I would. I don't like to be away
from home and be so isolated without a phone and
not being able to check out my kids, my husband,
businesses and things.
Speaker 3 (16:30):
Like that, so I would pay to do that.
Speaker 4 (16:32):
That gives me anxiety, So I think, my God, like,
that's just hard for me. Maybe I'm a little too
much of control freak, but.
Speaker 2 (16:39):
I think they should bring Wells back to because they were.
They should just put me in Wells back there.
Speaker 3 (16:44):
Yeah, Wells says no, he's shaking his head.
Speaker 4 (16:46):
He's like, I think there's a time where a lot
of people are going to start going back because there's
only so many reality people out there.
Speaker 1 (16:52):
Yeah, that's true.
Speaker 3 (16:53):
Yeah, but the next one coming back is all not
non reality people. Right.
Speaker 2 (16:58):
Did I hear that reality and non reality?
Speaker 3 (17:01):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (17:02):
Okay, and then the non reality people are going to
become celebrities because they were on a show, and then
they'll become.
Speaker 2 (17:11):
Real.
Speaker 4 (17:14):
I think that's what everybody's a celebrity now in America.
Speaker 1 (17:17):
You're a survivor.
Speaker 3 (17:22):
I have to ask you, when you got home, what
did your what did your and a trader you would
know about that one in you, Camra, You've been dealing
with some traders lately. And when you got home, what
was it like for everyone to after they watched you
and they saw what it was like for you, what
did they say to you? Because I was so proud
(17:43):
of you. You you picked the first trader.
Speaker 2 (17:46):
Thank you, thank you so when I came back home,
my son was actually, I think that's what my son
was like, I'm really proud of you because he realized
that I picked the traders and I knew about the traders,
so I felt really, really like, you were smart, mom.
I'm really proud of you. And I knew almost all
the traders when I was doing the thing, you know,
which is crazy, because Danielle is the only one that
I didn't figure out because she played me. She would
(18:07):
be like, I'm a grandmother or you know, I'm a
socker for kids, you know, like yeah, imagine. So he
was like, I'm a grand mother. I spend all the
time with my grandkids. I take my grandkids to school,
pick them up, eat with them. So that's how you
connect with me. So already I didn't see her as
a trader because I was like looking at the ass mate.
That bitch has a good ass.
Speaker 3 (18:28):
Ye kids, She's got a great body, your grandmother. She
works out a lot. She has a great body, Danielle,
and she played a really good game I am. I mean,
she did she had us all. You know, she off
you know, wasn't on camera, but she swore on her
(18:49):
kids to me that she wasn't a trader. Again, I'm
a sucker for kids, and I don't you know, I
wouldn't do that. So anyway, who do you keep in
touch with?
Speaker 2 (18:57):
Now?
Speaker 3 (18:58):
I see you still are friends with Wells. You're friends
with Chrishelle.
Speaker 2 (19:02):
I'm friends with Wells. I'm friends with Chrischelle, I'm friends
with Dylan, and I'm friends with Rob Boston. Like those
are the and you of course from my cast, like
I really connected them, talk to and then I talked
to Caroline here and there, Brittany messages me here and there.
That's about it.
Speaker 4 (19:28):
How was Boston, Robert and real life guys? Because I
was watching the show with Eddie sols side and I'm like,
I would never want to be married to that guy.
He could his way out of anything. I see.
Speaker 2 (19:41):
I've never watched him on TV, so I don't know
what his personality is on TV. But when I'm with him,
he is so kind, caring anythings. I'm psycho. He literally
thinks I'm a crazy busin to dinner. We went to
dinner with Wells, Dylan, and me, and I was telling
them about my marriage and how I met my husband,
and he was just like so many red flags ions so.
Speaker 1 (20:03):
Many we were all saying that. But yeah, you know,
one thing, one thing about Boston Robb. He's so analytical
and in the game, he's obviously always thinking about gameplay
and you can see his eyes moving. But then in
like a personal setting, he's doing the exact same thing,
but he's really engaged in actually having a conversation with you,
(20:25):
and it's you know, it doesn't seem like it's like
menacing like it does on the show. In person, it
just seems like he's just like really really present and
like really kind of interested in you. So's he's very
lovely to be around when he's not a trader trying
to do.
Speaker 3 (20:45):
What does he do for a living, Well, he's a
professional player.
Speaker 4 (20:49):
Has a lot of events that explains it. Poker player.
Speaker 3 (20:53):
Yeah, he's he's a professional poker player. He's he's been
very good in the games that he plays. What is
It of? What? What was the Survivor and him and
his wife met on the show. He was People were
crazy in love with him. He was a heart throb
met his wife on the show Big, Big Time. Everyone
loves Boston Rob And he's a tradesman. His dad's like
(21:16):
a Mason and he does Italian stuff. Oh wow, he's
an Italian guy. He's one of my people.
Speaker 2 (21:22):
Videos of Rob Boston he was younger. I had to
forward it to him and I was like, damn, Like
like he's he's like but he's so kind because he
talks a lot about his daughters. He talks about he's
a family guy, but he loves his family so much,
and he's just he's just really like a fun person
to go out with and communicate with.
Speaker 3 (21:43):
Really very charismatic, very funny, and very very smart.
Speaker 2 (21:49):
Yeah. I connected with Mila. I keeps you.
Speaker 3 (21:53):
Oh yeah, Sierra beautiful.
Speaker 1 (21:55):
So what's funny is that I was in the uber
line started JFK and she walked by me. Stop there
and I said, Sierra, and I looked disheveled and I've
been traveling a lot. And she was like huh And
I was like, it's well and she was like, oh
my god, I just got back from Vegas. I look
like trash. We hugged and that was it.

what are you talking about marriage a white man or
I live with the white man. Then I was like, Chris,
(23:12):

I do. It's a job you know.

Speaker 1 (26:41):
She is so good. I was so frustrated that she
left the show so early because I got to see
a lot of that, just like off camera, of like
all her funny one liners, and like her she does
a thing where she pretends what's going on, pretends like
she doesn't know what but she knows exactly what she's doing.
She's very good at it, and I thought that was hilarious. Anyway,

Speaker 4 (01:27):
Listen, if Walmart gave me all free clothes, I'd wear them.
Go for it.
Speaker 2 (01:30):
You just stepped up. It just looked a little bit
better this season, because usually you guys look like bad.
Speaker 4 (01:35):
But this bro more relaxed. Where we live in Orange County. Yeah,

Speaker 3 (01:41):
I didn't think I looked good.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
You looked very good twenty four seven. Oh my course,
really good.
Speaker 4 (01:48):
And I was just being that's all right, I love bitches.
Let's get into your Traders experience. Yes, yes, that was
pretty amazing.
Speaker 3 (02:00):
What being in there with you?
Speaker 4 (02:01):
Oh so you guys, you're you have a whole bond here?
Speaker 2 (02:06):
Yes, yes, together, we have a whole bond. So me
and the Lotus already know each other. So Douras is
the first person when I joined Housewives called me to
wish me good luck.
Speaker 4 (02:17):
How do you guys know each other?
Speaker 3 (02:19):
How did you guys know?
Speaker 2 (02:20):
She just messaged me on Instagram?
Speaker 4 (02:21):
Oh okay, when you got hired housewives.
Speaker 2 (02:23):
Yes, yes, and then I sent up my number and
we spoke for like an hour with my son with
her kids, and she guided me, and I thought that
was so beautiful.
Speaker 4 (02:31):
So from them the mayor of Bravo, Yes she is,
she is. I do that too.
Speaker 2 (02:37):
Yeah, from the moment I start, before we even aired,
I already had the lotus like guiding me and yeah, yes,
I already had that. And then when it came to Welles,
oh my.
Speaker 3 (02:48):
God, Well this was a love affair between the two
of them. She loves him so much. But I like,
did you didn't you find it like difficult in the
beginning to understand the game?
Speaker 2 (03:00):
Yes, I didn't understand anything. But then god, who else
was there to guide me? You know, because I'll be
asking Well's questions? So what's happening right now? What's going on?
What are they talking about? Like I just I just
love how kind, caring, thoughtful and like took time to
guide me, help me and someone he finally funny like
(03:21):
being lost in what's happening?
Speaker 1 (03:24):
You know my favorite story of meeting you, Well, I
have too, But the first was we were the first
people to like kind of meet each other, like when
you come to the show, you kind of off to
go sit in a car with like just a couple
of people. And then those people you sit in the
car with, you're kind of with for the next couple
of days filming whenever you're coming to and fro the castle.
(03:48):
And and so when we when we when we met,
you just said, oh my god, I love your wife. Yes, yes,
good stuff.
Speaker 2 (03:58):
Oh my god, I love your She's so beautiful, she's
so funny. And so I think that's kind of like
calmed the wells down. I don't know, but I feel
like that's what happened to me. I just been like, Okay,
she loves my wife. I love my wife. Maybe we'll
get it.
Speaker 3 (04:12):
You have something in common right off the bat.
Speaker 2 (04:15):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (04:15):
And then as we're driving to like start filming, I
hadn't signed your contract yet, so there's a producer sitting
there reading the contract to her, and she didn't want
to listen to that at all, and she just wanted
to talk to me about Sarah and modern Family. And
(04:37):
the user kept on being like, you need to listen,
you need to listen to this, and I was like,
don't worry, I'm listening. I'm going to just relay all
the information. Just sign it. You'll be fine. And that's
how I got to know I am from that first day.
But I did want to ask you what made you?
What made you come on the show? Like you didn't
(04:57):
really understand it, so it's obviously not popular and do
so like what made you want to come on the show?
Speaker 2 (05:02):
Okay, so this actually happened, right, So like when you
go to your contract, I med DHD and that woman
had pages and pages to read for me, and I
just I couldn't. I just want to have fun with
you and talk about your wife, you know. But so
I was doing confession for Dubai Housewives and I was
on full glam and I just walked off confession and
I got a message from NBC saying, Hi, Chanelle, how
(05:23):
are you doing. I'm like I'm good. Would you like
to go to Traders? And I was like, oh, okay, yeah,
I would love that. What's that? Like it's a TV show?
Blah blah blah. I was like, yes, of course I
would love to go, and she goes, can you be
in Scotland in three days? In three days? I was like,
you know me, I'm like yes, I'll be there if
(05:43):
one of the days, you know, one of the days
is to do your medical test. So I was in
the hospital like most of the day doing all my
body check up and then half of the day I
don't know if you guys did that to check your brains.
If your brains was okay to go to Traders.
Speaker 4 (05:56):
Yeah, like a doctor spoke to us.
Speaker 2 (06:02):
Yes, And that woman was asking me some ridiculous questions.
I was like, I'm just lying to her.
Speaker 1 (06:09):
People.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
Yes, can you be sleep through? And yes, I don't
like not sleeping, you know. And then I remember when
I was in Scotland. I was driving to Scotland and
I messaged Andy Cohen and I was like, Andy, oh
my god, I'm doing Traitors. He goes, I know, congratulations,
and I was like, but I have no idea what
this game is goes, excuse me literally, And.
Speaker 4 (06:31):
I think even if you watch, even if you watch
the show, I still feel like it's very difficult. Like
with the missions. To me, I get confused sometimes even
when I'm watching the show.
Speaker 3 (06:41):
No, they were the easy part for me. Really, yeah.
Speaker 4 (06:45):
I didn't like that part.
Speaker 2 (06:46):
No. No, So Andy was like, you what do you
mean You've never watched the show you need to watch
the show and you can't go to a game you
don't know the show. And I was like, Andy, I'll
be fine. He was like, no, you need to ask
them to watch you. So the two days I was
in the room, they gave me like two episodes to work. Yeah,
they start with me to watch it. And I was like, Okay,
I can do this. I love this shit. You just
have to not use your brains. Nobody will know you're smart,
(07:08):
and I'm not. I don't use my brains. So I
was like, this is a puppet game for me.
Speaker 4 (07:12):
Yeah, your brains, you do see, you have many businesses.
Speaker 3 (07:16):
Exactly, and I am you don't give yourself enough credit.
And I know this because I am your very dear friend.
You were so smart. You were one of the first
people to call out Bob the drag Queen, one of
the first. And you know that could have contributed to
why maybe you got killed so early or do you
think it was just because you were a housewife, because
(07:38):
they were killing the housewives, whether they were getting things
right or not.
Speaker 2 (07:41):
No, So now I know what happened, right, because I
tell us.
Speaker 3 (07:45):
Yes.
Speaker 2 (07:45):
So I spoke to Rob and Caroline right and Caroline
told me he literally fought Bob off not killing me
for a very long time.
Speaker 3 (07:54):
Okay, Caroline did.
Speaker 2 (07:56):
Yes, Caroline, why are we killing us? She's making she's funnished,
she's just chilling like, there's no need to kill her.
Boston Robe was like, why are we killing this girl?
We just already killed the housewife, right, So all of
them didn't want to kill me, and Bob said, they're
not living until I'm dead. He's not taking anything. He
does not want anything anybody else except me. He wanted
(08:19):
me gone. But I also know why that giant man
I call him giant Man because because he's so big
and he's threatened by this little thing I am, you know,
And he was just like, you're so funny. You're so
funny every time. Oh my god, everybody likes you now
that I know who he is, and people have come
to be talk to me about it a partently. That's
his character. He tries to take people out that he
(08:41):
feels like the competition to him, camera wise, time wise
and everything. That's what she did in a drug Rupol's
drug race show. That's what everybody, from every queer person
I've met have said this to me.
Speaker 3 (08:52):
You know, okay, so so well, that's that's good to know.
But you were upset. I know that you and I
spoke and you said that you wanted to show your
son that you could stay a certain amount of time.
Speaker 2 (09:05):
Yes. Yes, it meant a lot to me because when
I told my son I was going to a game
my son loved. I was like, Mom, they're gonna kill
you first, and I'm like, please don't kill me first.
At least I was third. So that made me come
home like Touch, I died third. But then I did
come home and talk to Touch about Wells. I came
on to talk to Touch about Dylan. I came on
to talk about you, like I was like, I met
(09:27):
really good friends, Michelle. So I think I made him
speak to Wells and Dylan, and I think that kind
of like made me feel good like I got I
met friends out of this.
Speaker 3 (09:37):
Yeah. Yeah, you did a really good job. You did
an amazing job. Remember, I want you to tell everyone,
you know, when they bring us in the room and
they asked, would you like to be a traitor or faithful? Yes,
I want you to tell everyone what you said, and
I want you to tell everybody what your answer was. First,
(09:58):
and then tell them what you said.
Speaker 2 (10:00):
Oh my god, I'm not gonna lie. I don't remember
that much, but I did tell you what happened.
Speaker 3 (10:05):
Okay, so tell everyone they want to hear, trust me.
Speaker 2 (10:07):
I think they if I remember, they asked me if
I wanted to be a traitor or I actually remember
exactly I told you. What did I say?
Speaker 3 (10:17):
Said I'd rather do an orgy than be here right now?
Speaker 2 (10:21):
Yes, I did tell her to Alan. I did tell
her to Ala. Al. I was like, it was just
like a few hours in it. I was so stressed,
are you right? And it's like, do you want to
be a traitor or do you want to be a face?
I was like Alan, to be honest, I would rather
be in an orgie right now? What's happening here? And
Alan looked at me and loved so much. He's like what.
(10:43):
I was like, it looks like I've never done it,
but it's something that probably I will enjoy more than
sitting and trying to figure out I do.
Speaker 3 (10:53):
That's the next thing that you can do.
Speaker 1 (11:04):
I am constantly was cracking me out. I thought she
was amazing television and terrible on productions part letting her
go so quickly. But one of the funniest things that
I remember was, you know, obviously there are people from
Big Brother, and there are people from the Challenge, and
there are people from Survivor and all these different reality shows.
And I can tell everyone what you thought the Survivor
(11:25):
people were.
Speaker 2 (11:27):
Yeah, so you know, like, how you introduce yourself? I
was doing, like, Hi, I already know else, right because
of your wife and the house. So I'm like, Hi,
how are you doing? What's your name? Oh, I'm this
person survivor, I'm this person survivor, and this person survivor,
I'm a survivor. My issue, my thing was like why
are these white people from America saying why they survived?
(11:49):
And why they keep telling me their survivors. I was
so confused by so I'm like, what do you mean
your survivor? I'm survive, I'm survival. So when I died
and I left the house, I said to christ oh
my god, there's too many people survive there. And my
husband was, oh, it's a TV show, Survivor and such
a big in America, and everybody loves this show. But
I knew nothing about it. I told to put me
(12:11):
there because now I'm like it could be really fun.
You don't have to meet all day, you do challenges.
He's like, I am, you're not going to survive.
Speaker 3 (12:19):
And you know you, I promise you you don't want
to do that.
Speaker 1 (12:25):
Holocaust survivor something. I still makes me laugh.
Speaker 3 (12:31):
So I know, it was like like salm in America.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
Yeah. I was like, I was like, what do you
mean yourself? Because it's so hard for me as an
African person to hear people that live in America saying
the survivors because survived. So I'm thinking, I've survived malaria,
I survived typhoid survivor, but like I've had malaria. In
term those are surviving things like what do you survive
in America? Like flu?
Speaker 4 (12:54):
I have no idea how then.
Speaker 1 (12:59):
Reality TV show that's what you survive in America? Exactly,
that's not that's not the most that's if that's not
the most American thing in the world. I don't know
what is what's your survivor on a reality show?
Speaker 3 (13:13):
And uh, that's all first world problems. I guess we
call it, right, Yeah.
Speaker 1 (13:18):
Yeah, I And you know you you came in the
game not really understanding it, but obviously afterwards we all
watched it, and I think that you now have like
a firm grasp on like how to play. One would
you go back if they asked you? And two would
you be a trader?
Speaker 2 (13:35):
I would love to go back because because I feel
like I was killed for no reason. It was very
unfairly murdered, so I feel like I should have a
chance to go back. I just got a call two
days ago from the woman that booked me for Traders,
checking in and telling me I was very hysterical at Bravacon.
So I'm waiting everyone.
Speaker 3 (13:55):
You did a great job.
Speaker 2 (13:56):
Thank you. So I hope in a few weeks acond
be can you take me back. I don't know if
they would, but I would love to go back and
just really play the game. Well, you know.
Speaker 1 (14:05):
They're going to put you on the red carpet after
Bravo Khan. I saw all your stuff on social media,
interviewing everyone. You were hilarious and so good at it.
They're going to have you do red carpets for award shows.
I bet you you.
Speaker 3 (14:17):
Really think so?
Speaker 4 (14:18):
I hope you have you done it before?
Speaker 2 (14:22):
No, I didn't, but I was with Wells. We went
to watch Dancing with the Stars for Dylan, and I said, well,
you do this a lot, like this is the first
time I've ever had this job. I don't even know
what to do. I don't know most of these people.
And just tell me just look at them and ask
them questions and make them feel comfortable. Then they will
want to talk to you, you know. So I went
in with that being like to talk to them, made
them feel comfortable, asked them the questions that you would
(14:45):
want to be asked, and I just followed what Wells
told me to do. And then, because he does this
a lot, the interviews people and.
Speaker 4 (14:52):
Would you do dancing with the stars?
Speaker 2 (14:55):
Oh, I have no moves because I did money because
Max did.
Speaker 4 (14:59):
Max I did say the casting for Traders is the
same as Dancing with the Stars, So maybe that's why
she reached out to you.
Speaker 3 (15:08):
Yeah, oh, I have no idea that would be amazing
for you.
Speaker 2 (15:12):
I don't think. I don't think I can dance. Because
I went to watch Dylan, I was very impressed, like
really impressed.
Speaker 3 (15:18):
They teach you though, they teach you.
Speaker 1 (15:20):
Yeah, if you if you went back on though, would
you be a trader?
Speaker 2 (15:25):
Yes, this time, if I went back I would definitely
choose to be a trader because it's long hours. And
you know, there was one time I was sleeping under
the table and Nikki was like, why are you sleeping
a trader. I'm like, no, I am exhausted, Okay, I
needed to start.
Speaker 3 (15:38):
I remember that day your body was the length of
the table.
Speaker 2 (15:43):
Yes, I was just like.
Speaker 3 (15:44):
I was resting my feet on you when I was
sitting on the chair. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (15:48):
And you know I missed that breakfast bolt Eggs seel
every morning. The food is so bad at traders.
Speaker 3 (15:55):
It is listen. It was the bad ever everything. Yeah. No,
the food sucked, but it was so good because I
didn't eat a lot and I looked so good at
the end.
Speaker 4 (16:06):
Oh, I see, it was like a good diet my skin.
Speaker 3 (16:09):
I felt good. I was able to do the challenge
as well.
Speaker 2 (16:13):
And yeah, yeah, you guys, if you asked to go back, I.
Speaker 3 (16:18):
Would swim there. I want to go back so bad.
Speaker 4 (16:22):
With hesitation, I would. I don't like to be away
from home and be so isolated without a phone and
not being able to check out my kids, my husband,
businesses and things.
Speaker 3 (16:30):
Like that, so I would pay to do that.
Speaker 4 (16:32):
That gives me anxiety, So I think, my God, like,
that's just hard for me. Maybe I'm a little too
much of control freak, but.
Speaker 2 (16:39):
I think they should bring Wells back to because they were.
They should just put me in Wells back there.
Speaker 3 (16:44):
Yeah, Wells says no, he's shaking his head.
Speaker 4 (16:46):
He's like, I think there's a time where a lot
of people are going to start going back because there's
only so many reality people out there.
Speaker 1 (16:52):
Yeah, that's true.
Speaker 3 (16:53):
Yeah, but the next one coming back is all not
non reality people. Right.
Speaker 2 (16:58):
Did I hear that reality and non reality?
Speaker 3 (17:01):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (17:02):
Okay, and then the non reality people are going to
become celebrities because they were on a show, and then
they'll become.
Speaker 2 (17:11):
Real.
Speaker 4 (17:14):
I think that's what everybody's a celebrity now in America.
Speaker 1 (17:17):
You're a survivor.
Speaker 3 (17:22):
I have to ask you, when you got home, what
did your what did your and a trader you would
know about that one in you, Camra, You've been dealing
with some traders lately. And when you got home, what
was it like for everyone to after they watched you
and they saw what it was like for you, what
did they say to you? Because I was so proud
(17:43):
of you. You you picked the first trader.
Speaker 2 (17:46):
Thank you, thank you so when I came back home,
my son was actually, I think that's what my son
was like, I'm really proud of you because he realized
that I picked the traders and I knew about the traders,
so I felt really, really like, you were smart, mom.
I'm really proud of you. And I knew almost all
the traders when I was doing the thing, you know,
which is crazy, because Danielle is the only one that
I didn't figure out because she played me. She would
(18:07):
be like, I'm a grandmother or you know, I'm a
socker for kids, you know, like yeah, imagine. So he
was like, I'm a grand mother. I spend all the
time with my grandkids. I take my grandkids to school,
pick them up, eat with them. So that's how you
connect with me. So already I didn't see her as
a trader because I was like looking at the ass mate.
That bitch has a good ass.
Speaker 3 (18:28):
Ye kids, She's got a great body, your grandmother. She
works out a lot. She has a great body, Danielle,
and she played a really good game I am. I mean,
she did she had us all. You know, she off
you know, wasn't on camera, but she swore on her
(18:49):
kids to me that she wasn't a trader. Again, I'm
a sucker for kids, and I don't you know, I
wouldn't do that. So anyway, who do you keep in
touch with?
Speaker 2 (18:57):
Now?
Speaker 3 (18:58):
I see you still are friends with Wells. You're friends
with Chrishelle.
Speaker 2 (19:02):
I'm friends with Wells. I'm friends with Chrischelle, I'm friends
with Dylan, and I'm friends with Rob Boston. Like those
are the and you of course from my cast, like
I really connected them, talk to and then I talked
to Caroline here and there, Brittany messages me here and there.
That's about it.
Speaker 4 (19:28):
How was Boston, Robert and real life guys? Because I
was watching the show with Eddie sols side and I'm like,
I would never want to be married to that guy.
He could his way out of anything. I see.
Speaker 2 (19:41):
I've never watched him on TV, so I don't know
what his personality is on TV. But when I'm with him,
he is so kind, caring anythings. I'm psycho. He literally
thinks I'm a crazy busin to dinner. We went to
dinner with Wells, Dylan, and me, and I was telling
them about my marriage and how I met my husband,
and he was just like so many red flags ions so.
Speaker 1 (20:03):
Many we were all saying that. But yeah, you know,
one thing, one thing about Boston Robb. He's so analytical
and in the game, he's obviously always thinking about gameplay
and you can see his eyes moving. But then in
like a personal setting, he's doing the exact same thing,
but he's really engaged in actually having a conversation with you,
(20:25):
and it's you know, it doesn't seem like it's like
menacing like it does on the show. In person, it
just seems like he's just like really really present and
like really kind of interested in you. So's he's very
lovely to be around when he's not a trader trying
to do.
Speaker 3 (20:45):
What does he do for a living, Well, he's a
professional player.
Speaker 4 (20:49):
Has a lot of events that explains it. Poker player.
Speaker 3 (20:53):
Yeah, he's he's a professional poker player. He's he's been
very good in the games that he plays. What is
It of? What? What was the Survivor and him and
his wife met on the show. He was People were
crazy in love with him. He was a heart throb
met his wife on the show Big, Big Time. Everyone
loves Boston Rob And he's a tradesman. His dad's like
(21:16):
a Mason and he does Italian stuff. Oh wow, he's
an Italian guy. He's one of my people.
Speaker 2 (21:22):
Videos of Rob Boston he was younger. I had to
forward it to him and I was like, damn, Like
like he's he's like but he's so kind because he
talks a lot about his daughters. He talks about he's
a family guy, but he loves his family so much,
and he's just he's just really like a fun person
to go out with and communicate with.
Speaker 3 (21:43):
Really very charismatic, very funny, and very very smart.
Speaker 2 (21:49):
Yeah. I connected with Mila. I keeps you.
Speaker 3 (21:53):
Oh yeah, Sierra beautiful.
Speaker 1 (21:55):
So what's funny is that I was in the uber
line started JFK and she walked by me. Stop there
and I said, Sierra, and I looked disheveled and I've
been traveling a lot. And she was like huh And
I was like, it's well and she was like, oh
my god, I just got back from Vegas. I look
like trash. We hugged and that was it.
Speaker 3 (22:18):
She was at F one.
Speaker 2 (22:19):
Yeah, maybe she's staid for one. I couldn't do it,
I was asked, I couldn't do it at all. My body,
I couldn't do it. I was working sixteen hours a
day almost it was.
Speaker 1 (22:29):

me when I was young. So I live like in
ten days. Then I come out.
Speaker 3 (22:46):

Speaker 2 (22:50):
Really rest, because the other day almost died. I don't
know if I told you. Well, guys, I went to
do na D and my whole body went into sesters
and stuff. And then then I like, yeah, they're like
you have such low blood white cells. And I was like,
what are you talking about marriage a white man or
I live with the white man. Then I was like, Chris,
(23:12):

have wild blood cell from your blood. I thought it
was because, like you know, relationship wise or something.

She is so good. I was so frustrated that she
left the show so early because I got to see
a lot of that, just like off camera, of like
all her funny one liners, and like her she does
a thing where she pretends what's going on, pretends like
she doesn't know what but she knows exactly what she's doing.
She's very good at it, and I thought that was hilarious. Anyway,
