My doctor, doctor Casso and his whole staff is amazing.
And uh I I had a hip replacement. I had

(03:23):
two ACL surgery, so working out, I never had like
a butt. So when I went in to speak with
to my g listen, I was like, Kim Kardashian, she's beautiful.
I was like, anybody that wants to get plastic surgery,
you want to have this, have that. I'm totally fine
with it, but like certain people like certain things really
big boobs, really big butt's fine. I just literally told
him I don't really want to look like Kim Kardashian

(03:44):
with not unproportioned. I was like, I just want a
little omph just to look like it's mine, because I
would I like to be like more than it's not.
People like, oh my god, really, it's like I'm not.
So I just wanted a little oomph. So I told
him anywhere you can take fat, even from my which
is not much up there, just thick of it. But yeah,
and I actually didn't awake.

Speaker 2 (04:05):
Wow, that's unterrifying.

Speaker 1 (04:07):
It's he when when I actually because when I first
heard that, I go, what do you mean awake? I go,
don't you like knock me out? Put me under? And
he goes no, he goes Honestly, he's like ninety percent
of my patience. He goes to it awake and I'm like,
but were you laying on your belly? Yeah? Yeah, So
he's they gave you like medicine beforehand, and it's like

(04:30):
they're like, you're gonna be awake, and I'm like, okay,
that literally tell you to turn tell you, and like
I was, he was talking about golf and the old
thing I remember was saying, uh, I like mini golf,
and yeah, I went home and everything was it was
actually not bad. It didn't hurt, didn't hurt, and I
did it awake, which people like really and I'm like, yeah,
it's crazy. But I couldn't sit for six weeks.

Speaker 2 (04:51):
Wow, oh my gosh, So how did you?

Speaker 1 (04:54):
I had a special little bb oh and everything. So yeah,
it was a little it wasn't It wasn't painful, just
kind of uncomfortable. But yeah, it's been like kind of
two years and obviously got to maintain it and know
all that other stuff. But yeah, I actually kept my nose.
I don't want to come on your show because I

(05:14):
thought it was still swollen. Are you kidding? I tell
you a story. I had gotten one like fifteen years ago.
Not to be like solitic surgery, listen. I had that
kind of like the I felt like I had that
kind of a tale, you know, notalent, but like you know,
I mean, I was like I always wanted once and

(05:36):
I was a kid. So I had got one about
ten fifteen years ago, and I felt like when I
got older, my nose looked longer, and like really like,
I'm not Pinocchio and I really don't lie, Like why
does my nose look longer? So when I went back
to my plastics, want to do my butt and I
was like, can you do shorten my nose? And that's
literally what he did. I was like, I just want
it shortened because when I used to drink soda used

(05:58):
to like hit the bottle. So now like I drink,
I'm like, oh, wows, doesn't it looks so good? It's
still a little swollen. Yeah, I mean I can't even
tell if I could show you pitches beforehand, I want
to see you look beautiful. I appreciate it. I were
just scan. I'm like, I don't want to go see
my nose is gonna look swollen. So but thank you.
I appreciate that good.

Speaker 2 (06:20):
I know.

Speaker 3 (06:20):
I was like, I can't tell, so I can't imagine
what it's going to look like. Then you have such
a good side profile.

Speaker 1 (06:25):
Oh yeah, thank you. That was like my main thing.
Oh yeah, it's like really perfection girl. Thank you in
every way.

Speaker 4 (06:31):
So I gotta know, yes, big brother, you were on
season fifteen, Yes it was, and you are just a whop.
You know, your personality, the flare you bring. I want
to talk about it. You were actually the winner, second place,
one of the winners, fifty grand and what was it like?

Speaker 1 (06:50):
Tell me about the whole experience? Oh goodness, how did
you make it through? I would have died? It was
everyone's always well. I first, like tried out like you,
auditioned like everybody else. So you know, I'm going, I'm
going back to like the old school days when like
you sent in the VHS tape. So I literally I
literally sent in a tape, but you uploaded online. So
we had funny story. We had Hurricane Sandy. Yeah, I

(07:12):
remember in sun Island got really bad, and I remember
it was real. It was twenty twenty thirteen, twenty twelve,
twenty thirteen around that, over ten years ago, so yeah,
I know how crazy. So I ended up being Halloween
and I remember having like these fake bullets, like the

(07:32):
Army bullets. So I made like a fake video about
a zombie apocalypse and I literally sent that video in
as my audition, and I got a call back. I go,
they must think I'm great for reality TV because I'm
a can I curse. Yeah, I'm a faking nut job.
So they don't, I mean perfect for this for the show.
So so you know, I auditioned, got callback, did all

(07:53):
the tests and all the written out all the exams.
Of course they did like a psychiatriya psychiatric psyche.

Speaker 4 (08:00):
I'll see that for me, please miche because I'm like
theatric evaluation.

Speaker 1 (08:04):
Yes, and obviously I fail. That's why I ended all
the show. But no, they do all that testing and
stuff and like and I tell people you were a
fan of the show. I wasn't a fan of the show.
It's fine.

Speaker 4 (08:16):
It's interesting because I watched it early on and I
was just like, you know, I was always thinking to myself.

Speaker 1 (08:21):
I could never ever be on this show. It's a
tough one, it is. It's absolutely amazing. I have amazing
friends and family. I speak to more than like half
the cast. It's a family show. It's on primetime on CBS.
It's a summer thing. Everyone. It's been on for over
twenty years. On his twenty seven season, which you ladies
want to come to the party now, it's the freaking date.

(08:42):
Yet it's like riding around the corner. Everyone's like sitting
on the end of the day because during COVID, it
usually started in June, but since COVID they kind of
changed a lot of the things. So like, please, you
can meet everybody there. Everyone Angelia comes to me too.
She could be my date and then it would be
super awesome. And like I said, I wasn't. But I
knew the show because a girl from stann Island was

(09:05):
on my friend Jojo and we have we have like
this dermal piercing. So my friend was like, oh, this
girl from stan Island, my brother has the same piercing
as you. I was like, shot right, And then I'm
like they're not going to pick the same person with
the pier yeah, just like but she was a brunette.
I was a blonde, so like, there's no way I'm
going to get cast. I ended up getting cast, and
I was I went in like I knew what to expect,

(09:30):
just mentally and physically draining. It really is. And the
only thing, like, obviously I made it to the second place.
I wouldn't change anything. The only thing I would probably
change is probably keeping my mouth shut. That's really.

Speaker 4 (09:50):
Loud.

Speaker 1 (09:50):
I I I grew up where if you shake somebody's hand,
it was a deal, and and people trusted me because
of that, and I was like, I was like the
girly girl who did everyone's hair and makeup. But I
was also like the tomboy that like cooked and did
all the sports and like hung out with the boys
and talk sports. So I was it's always good, they
say through a man's stomach.

Speaker 4 (10:10):
Is.

Speaker 1 (10:12):
So I cooked for the guys. I do make a good.

Speaker 4 (10:15):
Trick bar Again, that's the mari, you know, and that's
how we that's how.

Speaker 2 (10:22):
That's true when all sails offer chicken.

Speaker 1 (10:28):
Than a cook. So yeah, yeah, oh my god, that's crazy.
But what did it feel like to finally win? Incredible? Incredible?
I I I like, I had like such a huge
crush on this boy on their nick. So he's doing
great now he's married and not married, but he has
he has a girlfriend and he has a kid and
he's one coming up. So we we talk. But you know,

(10:51):
everyone moves on with their lives from relationships. It's kind
of like I kind of thought maybe I was on
the Bachelor and rather had the guy and sent the money.
And I probably still think of this till this day.
I'm like, listen, money comes and goes. I feel like
a relationship kind of stays a little longer. So I
was actually more excited to see him after the show
and that if they get the money. But I'm like,
you know, so we hung out after the show and
all that good stuff, and like I said, I talked

(11:13):
to more than half. They're my family, even the people
after the show. We are instant families. It's really weird
love that. It's just like I guess they know only
a handful gets to experience living in that house, and
mentally we're all connected and it's a family for life.
Did it? What was it like off camera versus on camera?

(11:33):
You know what the crazy part is we're on camera,
Like see the studio, they'll be cameras everywhere. We're on
camera twenty for seven.

Speaker 4 (11:43):
And that's when I realized, right, like people probably don't
realize you're literally on all.

Speaker 1 (11:48):
The day long. Yeah, there is a door that you
can shut, but the camera, the shower has like that
frost on it, so it's kind of like from the
neck down. So if you were not really yeah we were,
there's a place where there was hot have and have not,

(12:09):
and if you were a have not, you had to
only eat certain foods and take cold showers, so there
was like there was like a curtain in between where
you could like they had a shower just for us,
So I try to jump in half the shower when
someone was taking it, or I get some hot loader
on me. But yeah, it was it was insane, but
I would I wouldn't change it for the world. It
was just amazing experience and I had so much fun

(12:30):
doing it.

Speaker 4 (12:31):
You know, you had a really strong personality. How where
did that confidence come from. I'm not you were known
for it on the show.

Speaker 1 (12:37):
Yeah, I just you know, I was really want and
you know, it kind of hurts you to be a
physical com com beast or whatever you want to say.
But like I went in as myself like if like listen,
and I always was like, you know, when you do
something and you want to do it one hundred and
ten percent. I was like that in everything that I did,

(12:57):
because not that I want to be anybody accompanition, I'm like, listen,
if you want to be the best, you got to
beat the best. And that's what I wanted to do.
Everything I did, I did one hundred and ten percent.
Some things I lost because I saw but some things
I actually do today. So you know, I'm not going
to any math questions. No, but I did physically, I
did pretty well. So I loved all. I just love
to play. It felt like you were, you know, a

(13:18):
five year old and like the playground, just playing games.
I'm like, who gets to do this like as an adult?
Exactly exactly. Oh, you know what I thought when before

(13:45):
I went in that I was really going to miss
my family and get like homesick, and I wasn't. You
were busy, Yeah, And I was kind of like, I
mean because there was people to have children on their husbands, wives, pets,
even you know, and that had to leave them for
three months, their job, everything, people had sick family members.
You don't know what the hell's going on. You don't

(14:06):
know what's happening in the outside world, you know. And
that's the only thing I would probably be a little
crazy about. I was like, you know what, I'm going
to see them when I'm out, and I know that
they're home rooting me on. So that's kind of how
I felt. That was probably the only really thing that
I thought that would be crazy, But I was okay
with it. Were you crushed when your relationship didn't continue?

Speaker 4 (14:28):
Ah?

Speaker 1 (14:29):
Yeah, I guess but you know what, he was in
New Yorker, So I was excited, thinking like I was
going to go back and maybe have a relationship with him.
But he ends up moving to California. But you know
the things, I feel like things have ey, Yeah they
really do? Should they really do? So I was like, listen,
if it didn't work out, it didn't work out. And
as I applaud him, he's so smart and I never

(14:51):
would say anything bad about him. So any relationships I
had in the past, they didn't work out. Onto the
next I guess, well.

Speaker 4 (14:57):
I will say you have had many relationships. I want
to talk about a few of them.

Speaker 1 (15:02):
We got it. So are you currently single? I am
okay on our dat good luck.

Speaker 3 (15:09):
You have one thing about her, she's two people with
the pulse. That's what we always say. She matches up
two people with the pulse, like she won't know anything
about your personality. She's like, this is the perfect person.

Speaker 1 (15:18):
So you see the ring finger. I have it on
this one because you and the cougar, So.

Speaker 2 (15:22):
Now set you up. She's like Cupid.

Speaker 1 (15:29):
I like to hoping for a relationship. I've been single
for a while. How was your last relationship? My relationship
was amazing. It was it was amazing, and people probably
be like, oh, so, what happened my boyfriend passed away?
So so hard. Yeah, so actually last week was his

(15:51):
four anniversary. I didn't mean to get upset, but uh
so it's not that. Okay, So I can explain it
to for people with.

Speaker 6 (15:58):
Grief, take your time, money, thank you, because this is
to inspire somebody.

Speaker 1 (16:10):
You know, when you break up with somebody and they
might be with someone else and it hurts you feelings
and you think like maybe there's a chance you can
get back with them. Yep, when someone passes away, you can't.
So it's like, we didn't break up, he just died.
So it was so I didn't know how to handle that.

(16:33):
I'm like, well, do I date somebody else? Obviously he's
not coming back. Jeana Mrie like, what do I do?
We didn't like break up, so it's not that I'm
like that open to date. It's kind of like everybody
meet is like twenties. Yeah, it's kind of like okay,
Jeana Marie, you know we have the and yeah, so
how did you and what was his name? Oh my

(16:53):
boyfriend Angelo? Yes, Oh so how did you guys meet.
Oh my goodness. So his parents owned a gym. Okay,
and I tell you why this story. It's actually really fun.
So if my eyelash randomly falls off, don't worry. I'll
let you know.

Speaker 7 (17:09):
Gym.

Speaker 1 (17:09):
So it's all good, but everything else is ends up
clipping off. Anyways, I hear you get out of here
bold and eyelash. And so we were at I was
at the gym and I was getting ready for actually
a boxing match. I was fighting Natalie from the Mob Wives.
Oh yeah, it was actually really cool. I can't really

(17:30):
do much boxing now, but I was prepping for a
show and my trainers were there. And he was actually
in law school, so he wasn't really in Staten Island, Nottch.
He was in the city. So I knew his parents
because I knew the gym, but I don't know they
he was. His parents owned the gym because when I
met him, so he was at the counter like leaning,
So I saw his back and I went up to

(17:52):
the counter and to get like a water something, and
he turns around. He looks at me. He had the
brightest green eye I ever seen in my entire life.
I instantly like fell in love. And you know, the
first thing he says to me, I said, remember this,
and it's so freaking funny. He goes, I guess you
knew I was Jean Rey from a Big Brother.

Speaker 4 (18:12):

He's like, I think I follow you on Instagram. I'm like, oh,
you're just a fans of That's how he ends up
talking and then like he ends up messaging me. He's like, oh,

was already friends with his mom because so I was like,

(18:34):
and she already knew me, Like, oh, Jeana is very
nice girl. You know it's up. I'm like, oh, Lisa,
know your mom gives you the a date me. And
it's funny because I didn't know that those are his
parents that because he was you know, his parents owned
the gym. So I'm like, oh, good, I already know
your parents, which is great. And we dated for close
to five years before he passed away. So yeah, but everything,
everything was great. We did have a ten year age gap,

(18:56):

around with me, but yeah, so it was all good.
So yeah, so I love it.

Speaker 8 (19:03):

Speaker 1 (19:03):
I don't think you can go older. Honey, You're just

You know what I have? I have a lot of
energy and I'm very positive and I love to be

Debbie down or crap, and I listen, I'm but a
lot of people like it scares people and some people
like you're like way too much and I can't lower myself.
It's who I am. I know what bothers people sometimes.
But like you know, if you don't want to be

don't need to follow me, you don't need to be

(19:42):

dating anybody I want. I went, I want a hot,
like twenty two year old. I'm not even gonna see
a name, but bo, you's sexy that he was ful hot.
But I'm like, god, can you really handle a twenty
two year old? I mean, you know what, I probably
won't handle the drama and like, you know, something like that.
But like, I mean, I have the IQ of probably

(32:37):
like a five year old. So I mean any age
of you know, anybody over eighteen, that's the way we
can handle. But no, I mean age doesn't really matter
to me. I like something that's good looking. Of course
everyone does. I make my own money so they don't
have to be like like super rich, but you know,
obviously whatever it's Yeah, it's like Narrily Monroe. It's like
it doesn't hurt, so you know, it's and you know,
I like tall guys. They could be short too, but

(33:00):
you know, I wear heels. I'm only fight threes. I'm
kind of short. I do like nice cars because my Mustang, okay,
I actually have. I go to car shows. It's old guys,
and I'm like one of the only girls I go
my nephew, I go with my brother, my family, and
I have like Lamborghini doors on my Mustang. It's so

(33:21):
Staten Island. It's like you drive a Mustang and you
got this.

Speaker 5 (33:25):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (33:25):
So and it's like I not that like I like
to beat the boys, but like since it's such like
a guy's field and they see like a girl, they
actually sometimes think I'm like the more of the models
for the and they I like the kids go in
the car, take pictures all they want. I'm like, no,
this is actually my car. And yeah, so it's so
I do like some of them has a nice car
because I like my Mustang. It's like a bright neon green,

(33:46):

I'm really open. So you're really open.

Speaker 4 (33:52):
Good guy, I mean you need somebody good. Do you
ever like go after the good guy versus the looks.

Speaker 1 (33:59):

but just recently he was like, try to be the

Speaker 3 (34:33):
At least I can ricite random funny jokes.

Speaker 1 (34:38):

of was, but like the nerd because he was so nerdy.
You tried, but like I guess that. I guess they're
just more entertaining. Like I don't drink, so I'm good

I would love to. I mean, I just I just

(37:15):

A c L surgeries. I literally have a hip replacement.

You know, the wand and I'm like, bro, this dress
is way too tight for me carrying. The only weapon
is just bringing these guns but yes with beeps and

Speaker 1 (38:16):
You exactly exactly brought my hair extensions. But yeah, so yeah,
but I'm just I'm just living life to have fun.
Since Angela pass, I'm kind of like I try not
to let things bother me, even haters things. It's like,
you know, I drive around a bright green car and
don't care who loves it to hate it. I just
kind of like, I just kind of just want to

(38:38):
be happy. That's awesome.

Speaker 4 (38:40):
How have you found and navigated like friendships with other
women in the entertainment industry?

Speaker 1 (38:45):
You know what I mean. I'm great friends with Angelina
from the Jersey Sure, she's amazing. I have, you know,
from Stanna from from Stanlan well she lives in Jersey. Now, yeah,
she bought a bead of house in Jersey. She was
in Staten Island, like I said, and she's with my family,
comes over to eat. Just just amazing. And you guys
met on the shower. No, we met actually at the

(39:07):
Jersey Shore. You did fins like we met the Jersey Show.
I was like, oh my god, it's Andelete from the
Jersey Shore and I met her, became instant friends and
a lot of like I have to not like, I'm
not talking about levels. I like to have people that
can handle to me that I not that I say,
only have pretty friends. So bad to say, because you

(39:28):
guys me like my best friends. No, seriously, it's like
it's not that. Like, but like everybody that I'm friends
with are like they love to work out, like I think.
I feel like when you surround yourself by positive people,
you get positive results. You have someone that's like slacking
and doesn't want to do nothing and be like, bro,
they're just going to bring you down. Here.

Speaker 2 (39:48):
You are here to hang out.

Speaker 1 (39:49):
Why I hang out people like that. I just surround
myself with the great, amazing people, and I have great,
amazing friends and family and a lot of girls like
I got like a lot of Usually guys are just
cool and girls like unless they I always want to
compliment girls because I want them to feel better about themselves.

(40:11):
And if I like your shoes, I want to tell you,
I ain't going to be mad because I'm I'm only
in competition with myself. I don't need to be a competition. Seriously.
It's like I got one here, you got brought. It's
like I'm not like, oh, I'm gonna be blonde in her. No,
everybody is different in their own way, and everyone's unique
and special. I love everybody. So it's fine, so amazing.

(40:35):
She's cool. She is such a crazy I love her
to pieces. You know, what someone likes she gets for
like for like the show. People don't realize. It almost
makes me tear up. She's such a amazing person. She

(40:55):
really is. She has a heart of gold. She stayed
with me my first ACL surgery. She stay with me
my mom in the hospital for like six hours. Wow,
butt by my mom's side. So you know, like there's editing, Yeah,
on television, there is editing. Trust me, either make you
look good or bad obviously twenty four seven. Ye, But
like an episode, so if they want to make her

(41:17):
either look away or edit something of a fight in
a different way or whatever. People see her on the show,
but people don't know her who she is in real life,
and that's what a person really is, and she's amazing.

Speaker 3 (41:28):
I feel like we've learned that a lot with a
lot of people that we've become friends with from reality stars.
It's like they paint one thing and then you meet
them and you're like.

Speaker 2 (41:35):
Oh my god, you're like so dumb to her.

Speaker 1 (41:37):
That's why it makes me up. Heters don't get me mad. Yeah,
it's the fact that like they might say something, oh,
Jeana Marie with her extension, their plastic surgery and da
da da dah. But like and then when they meet me,
like oh Jeam, we love you, I'm like, why did
you just hate me before? But like that's how you said.
I'm like, you can't judge somebody until you meet them.
And then if I was like, listen, you want to

(41:58):
be my friend, seat right next to me, you don't
want to do It's fine, So don't judge me from
a show. Judge me how I am and how I
treat people.

Speaker 9 (42:07):
You're fun and people don't do so much.

Speaker 1 (42:12):
Like people get hit. Do you even know me? You
don't come and get to know me, because I'm the
type of person when you want to be a keyboard
tough guy. Here's when the sam isla comes out, be like, oh,
why don't you come see it's to my face. No
one ever says it to my face.

Speaker 2 (42:25):
Yeah, well, I feel it goes with those what is it?

Speaker 3 (42:27):
Those para parasocial relationships, like where people like follow someone
online and they think they know everything about their life
and they know the person so well.

Speaker 2 (42:34):
And it's like I have a whole other life that
I just don't put on you.

Speaker 1 (42:38):
Yeah, we share a lot. But even like relationships, like
you'll see someone's relationship, Oh they look so happy together,
and I'm so jealous. You don't know what goes behind
closed doors. Some people have an amazing relationship and don't
show anything. It is what it is. I mean people
reality Yes they're on reality TV, so their life and
stuff is on the show. I get it. But there's

(42:58):
a lot of things that you don't know about people,
what they're going through. So that's why I don't try
to judge people. I mean, I do have a heavy
horn when I drive, but you know it's okay. But no,
I try to give everyone the benefit of the doubt.
Try to learn on them as a part. That's the
thing people you need to do. Learn to meet people first,
get to like them.

Speaker 8 (43:17):
Like chat.

Speaker 3 (43:21):
I love it, it really is.

Speaker 4 (43:24):
I have to ask one last question. That's been your
most iconic moment.

Speaker 1 (43:29):
Like ever on a show?

Speaker 4 (43:31):
Ever?

Speaker 1 (43:31):
Ever? Oh man, that's a good one. The brain cells
are dipping into the bleach. Hold on to say it again,
like most.

Speaker 4 (43:44):
Iconic moment, something that you felt was just iconic, that
happened to you didn't expect or you did, or you
were like, this is the moment that's defining me at
this point.

Speaker 1 (43:57):
You know, I'm not gonna say the there's a lot
of things, but I'm gonna say things like are an
achievement and getting my big brother key that was a
real big achievement. I actually gave my big brother key
to my dance teacher because I idolized her so much
and I still do in my forties and she's incredible.

(44:20):
And like winning, I do beauty pageants, winning pageants. I
used to be like that ugly little duckling with braces
and I used to never win, and I always meet
such amazing friends and it kept me working harder and
harder to get better. When I finally won, I got
a six foot trophy that I still have in my
house and I see it every day. And I had
to drive it down with my like nineteen like ninety

(44:43):
five like La Baron convertible that I had driving home
from the pageant. And that was a real big achievement.
And you know, I still win trophies a car shows
and trophies, and it's just like, you know what, you
just that's gonna be just I can't really put it
to a pinpoint. It's just like I think every day
we're just making better achievements for our own selves. And

(45:05):
I just just keep on being a better person and
I try that every day. So love it. Yeah, just
come home with us. I can put nails on for you.

Speaker 2 (45:21):
So good you put them on and they press on
they are.

Speaker 1 (45:24):
Because I I I this is that.

Speaker 3 (45:26):
You're the second guest that we've had today that has
had press ons that look literally amazing.

Speaker 1 (45:31):
Can I tell you I'm not even mad at it
because I love it.

Speaker 5 (45:33):
I ended up.
