Miss Jingle Ball Part 2: Red Carpet Mayhem

fashion that wasn't fashionable. It was the dress, missap. It was the red dress didn't work. I looked like a bell with boobs on top. It was like a wedding cake topper that no one wants. That almost didn't work out. Jane, my friend and fashion per, saved the day with a black outfit with feathers coming out of it. We still can't agree if it's a bootier corset, Adrian, which is it boostie r corset? I like there one in the same right? Are they big fashion nista that I am?

Here we go? So I was wearing my boosset bootie corset. That's a tory term. I just coined that you may sit everyone. You're welcome, okay. So I was taking my glam squad to jingle Ball to the event, Kim and Jules also two of my besties Juliana. Because of the mishap of the day and timing wise, it was like one thing led to another. Got my nails done by Anna. My claws are back on. Oh wait, I feel like you guys really like that ASMR moment, so I'm gonna go back to it. Was that as good for you

as it was for me. Round two? You welcome, okay, So I'm back. Anyway, we had the nails, the clause. The timing just didn't work out, which is always and Torri's world. Nothing works out, but then it all works out. I was supposed to get my toes done by Anna because, as I've told everybody, I haven't had a pedicare, like a proper pedicure since December, the first week of December twenty twenty four. That's right. I'm not proud of this,

you guys, but I'm just saying it's a fact. I do click my toenails once in a while, once in a while. This is weak. This is really funny. So this is like a first date. I was going to a new gynecology and I was like, oh, you know, they put your feet up in the stirrups, and I remember looking before. I'm not kidding. It really was like a first date, third date, you know, the home run date. But I was going to see a guynecologist. He's like

an older man, why would he care? But I was so nervous about this that I full on, like, you know, took it down of the hardware, made sure I was shaved everywhere, make sure everything looked good. I was showered, and then I remember I was like, oh my god, my toenails, my feet are gonna be up in the stirrups. And think he's going to see that. I have like the cutest feet, but like beast like toenails that I haven't gotten done in a year. So I was like, no,

to oneself, I got to clip those suckers. Do you think I remembered to do that? I didn't. I did save the day, and thank goodness, I wore real cute socks. And so when they were like take everything off and put on this gown, you know, the paper gown, and I was like, this is so weird to the nurse. I go, is it okay if I leave my socks on? And she just looked at me like wow. In her head she's like, uh, okay, you do you boo. But she was like, uh yes, and I was like, okay.

She has no idea me being the over explainer that I am. I wanted to be like, so it's a thing. I haven't gotten a petticaren here. And I forgot to clip my toenails and they're real long, and I'm scared the doctor's gonna see them. But instead I thank god these nails are click click back. I just said, okay, thank you. Anyway, going back to the story, so take note from episode one, part one Tangleball. That's I'm not

gonna I'm not here. It is long story short. Anna didn't have time to do my nails because my day was backed up. I had to get to Kim's to get it, to get my hair colored chopped. I wanted that precise short chop that was Tory twenty ten. Ooh vowel renewal Yes, uh yep, that was twenty Tennewal and Stella, who was tiny, walked me down the aisle. I had the highest stilettos on. I wore these Valentino heels that

were no joke stilettos, kind of stilettos. They had a little platform, so yeah, a little platform in the front. They were gray and they were satin, and they were six motherfucking inches tall. This is back when I could walk in heels, you guys, and I proudly walked down that aisle and were new my vows for real. But on TV it was Tory and Dean Home Sweet Hollywood.

Oh my gosh. Liam and Stella were so cute. And I had a little white, short, sassy dress on and Stella had a little white dress and she like I was so tall and she was so tiny. I think I was like stretching down my chacket, hold on to my pinky to walk me down. But I still have those photos. And then as we were redoing our vows, Liam was up there and because he was like the man, man of honor, made of honor, best man, and during it, like all our family and friends are there. This is

on TV if you have back and rewatch it. It was adorable. I mean, he was like three ten. He would be heves worn seven. You know, I can't do math whatever. I'm panting with my fingers right now, proud of it. He was three, Stella was two and his little pants fell down to was ankles in the middle of the ceremony. That's such as my world, in my family's world, and we're proud of it. Were imperfectly perfect. Anyway,

back to the story. Didn't get the nails done, yep, the toenails, so the toenails, the toenails stayed in the picture. I don't know why I feel the need, like I'm worried you guys are all gonna judge me, because no one ever judges me. Feel free again. I want to state I have the cutest feet, size six. They're adorable. My toes they line up like the perfect elegant like diagonal, like I'm not one of those people with like a long middle toe or like a big thick big toe.

Like my feet the way they are aligned, it's like artistry. And I'd never you know, I have no ego. I never toot my own horn, but I'm tooting my feet right now because they are good. And yeah, my towenails are long as fuck and not okay AnyWho. So then I go to Kim get every hair colored, cut, chopped, everything's for sise. And then Juliana is like, you guys time wise, what is happening? And I'm like, I'm sorry. We were running late. We had to get in that

car at five thirty. My iHeart jingle Ball team. They had so many talent. They had put in a text your uber's ordered it will be there at five point thirty sharp. Please make sure you get in the car because the uber driver will only wait ten minutes. And I didn't want to disappoint them. I was already running late, so I said, understood. So anyway I get here, I run in. I'm like sweating balls at this point, but I'm like in the door balls jingle Ball, Oh oh

brought that back around. So I run the door and Jewles, who is always very calm, very kim and Jewles have such good energies. That's why they are my soul sisters and my humans. And Jewels looks at me, but she doesn't get riled up. And she goes, we have fourteen minutes to do your makeup, And I said all right,

and she goes, okay, we could do it. Okay. I have never I am so impressed you can check the red carpet photos you guys at this point, or my videos and pictures online on my social that makeup was on point. She did that in fourteen minutes. Anyway, the driver arrives and in the middle of it, I run out. And I always believe that when you're kind to people and you lead with kindness, it opens doors that you wouldn't believe. And I like humans, for the most part,

nice ones. So I run out and I said, Hi. You know, I introduced myself. I'm Tori, and I could see on the Uber order his name which I couldn't pronounce, but I saw the first part of it, and I said hi. I said, may I call you Haru? And he's like, yes, that's my nickname. Everyone calls me that. Sorry, I might be going out of order if you listen to the first one. But basically, long story short, I said,

I know after ten minutes you have to leave. I'm running a little late, and he was like, basically stop right there. He was like, oh please, I have a wife, I know all about late. I will not leave you. You know what, Haru shout out to Haru one of the best Uber drivers Uber black drivers out there. Oh, my gosh, like haru, he didn't leave me. He was not kidding. He waited. I mean we were only fifteen twenty minutes, like getting in the car. But anyway, everything

comes together. We put it on my outfit, were ready to go, couldn't find and then I found my Versachi shoes that I got a year ago because I was like, oh, you know what, I'm feeling good about myself. Shoes for me. I have a collection of heels that I have collected since I was like when I first started working, you know, like I started working sixteen, but I didn't wear designer shoes. I was all like Doc Martin's back then, and like guess, oh my god, Adri, do you remember the guests they

looked they were like not mules. They looked like a cowboy boot in front, but it was like the back part there was no way. Yes, slides slides. It was a slide in the back and it was a cowboy boot in front. My yead totally remember those. Yeah, so I would wear those, like guess anyway, then you know when I'm it wasn't like young famous people now are all decked in like designers, Like that wasn't my jam I was all in. If you're old like me, you'll remember this. I was all I mean, guess was like

the biggest designer I wore. When I was like a kid. It was like that, Oh my god, my hair, right hair, Sorry, I have to fix it. It was like guests, uh express limited contempo casuals. Contempo casuals would be like the kids like forever twenty one now, but we had it back in the day at no Larmer exists. It was fabulous anyway. I wasn't wearing like you know, blood seaga and like, well later it was, but like not when

I was young anyway. So basically when I was like twenty one, i'd say twenty twenty one, that's when I started wearing like designer stuff. Maybe a little bit before that, No, not really, uh designer pieces and you know I would have like amazing things. And then I started collecting shoes, so shoes and purses from my jam. I wasn't big into like, I don't know, like if I was going to spend the money that I worked really hard making.

Do you like the fact that I need felt the need to say that because I'm judged so often for people being like oh, daddy's money. Like she just like was given everything. Like I wasn't that girl, Like my dad didn't give me a credit card. I didn't go Like I started working at sixteen. They created a bank account for me, and like I made all my money after that, like it was all my still felt the need to say that that's some old trauma I need to work on with my therapist. Okay, anyway, So yeah,

I started collecting shoes and bags and shoes. I'm proud I got every heel, not every heel, like a very curated collection. I loved heels and really like tall heels, and I would have a closet lined with them. I had so many designer and designer at this point. Oh yeah, I'm talking Versaci, Volentino, Gucci, Prada, all Lubatons, all the vibes,

Jimmy cho like it just keeps going, right. So I had so many that a photographer was doing this famous shoot and I had this idea because they wanted to do a photo of me in my closet because at the time, you know, I think I was like twenty one and twenty two, twenty three. I don't know, Oh, this vision of like in my closet. You have the best closet we want. And it was. It was fabulous and organized. Thank you Isabelle. I love you. She's still

here eighty one years old. She's like my second mama. Anyway, it looked great. I even had a closet for my dog. I know this is before I had kids. You guys like, yeah, wow, everything changed then, but we I had this idea. I said, well, you always see a celebrity in their closet, like, look at my closet, and people still do those and do the photos. I got let's do something a little different. So I literally I had this beautiful bathtub, like this big ass bathtub, and I said, let's put me in there,

supposedly naked, filling instead of bubbles my shoes. And they were like, do you have enough? I was like, do I have enough? Oh? Watch me? I had liked over two hundred shoes and that those shoes cover me perfectly. Those were all my shoes. We have to find that photo. Anyway, I had this dream. So some people collect art, I collected shoes, and I had this dream that I was like one day because I always wanted to be a mom, I'm like, I'm gonna have my girls, and I'm going

to pass on these heels. Keep in mind I wear a six. Keep in mind my baby daddy wears the size of fourteen. He has a fourteen inch foot. So between me with a six and him with a fourteen, the girls outgrew my foot my shoes by the time they were like ten. I'm not kidding. They have beautiful feet, but you know they're bigger. Yeah. Stella is always like, oh well, I get the feet from dad, and I'm like, yeah,

I'm sorry about that. Whatever. They were a nine, it's not huge, but it's it's definitely bigger than my sixes. So I mean I used to like position, like pose like Stella and Hattie in my little heels before they outgrew the size sixes, and it like just all didn't line up. But I was like, okay, great, this didn't work out. So anyway, had that collection and then I had kids, and then cut to now I don't wear heels. I can't. I can't even walk in heels anymore. I

used to walk. I mean I could walk in six inch heels, I mean strut and not miss a step. I mean, I'd like to say my balance got thrown off with five C sections, which is not a lie, and like I'm all the wobbly and it's only because of that facts. But yeah, I hung up my heels except for events a long time ago, but I still have them all packed away in my garage. Oh you know what, I need to make an art in stallation somewhere in my house with all my heels all that.

That's at a list. But anyway, Uh, yeah, I'm a Converse girl, proud of it. I wear sneakers like every day. In fact, I went to an I Heeard event with like a blue cool ball gown because I just want to keep saying that and black Converse that's my vibe. So I had a moment where I was like, oh my gosh, I'm gonna wear Converse, and Kivin Jules were like, you are absolutely not wearing your black Converce tonight. I'm like, yeah, that makes it edgy. I know, kids, I can't say

edgy anymore. It means something else, edgy whatever. But anyway, they were like, no, you're wearing heels. That's when I found these versacees that I bought a year ago. Even though I'm again so far out of my like heel face. But I was like, I deserve a current pair of heels, even though everything new is old again. No, everything old

is new again. So everything that used to be in that I saved for years, like those heels, the different heels, the platforms, the wedges, the stilettos, the pointed toe, the square do they all came back so I have them all. But anyway, I was like, I deserve a new pair. So I bought myself black patent leather pointed toe Valentinos twenty twenty four edition. I bought those, wore them once and as I said before, Jewels was trying to help

me find them. Put them in the bar because that's where every pair of good heels should stay, and they've never left since, so they were back there with all the glasses were anyway, So I'm like, grab the heels, put them on, totally ready. We get out that door. We get in the car and it was like, Haru, we're here, Tory Kim, Jewels, haru, thank you for not leaving us. And I'm not kidding. It was like, oh my god, we got to get there. It was like

get me to the Greek moment. Do you remember that movie Get Me to the Greek, who was a Russell Brand and Jonahill Get Me to the Greek. It was a comedy of airs. Oh my god. The whole night was kind of like, get me to the Greek AnyWho. So Haru gets us there. Of course there's traffic. It's Friday night, it's Los Angeles. We're going downtown. But we got there. So we get there. I think Heru, I said, you're a lifesaver. He got us here safely, and I

get out of the car. I think to myself because I saw my itinerary and they were like walk the press line. You know, they had like times lined up, very professional. I was very grateful. Walk the press line. Then go to the Gifting Suite. God, I left the

Gifting Suite. Every you're then you know, you can either go to they have like the lounge where it's like VIP and all of iHeart, like you know, everyone that comes in, like brands that have been involved and people that work at iHeart, and it's kind of it's a fun networking thing and an atmosphere where you get food, you get beverage, and you get Christmas cheer and you can hear the music or so you could do that, and everyone has their friends and family there and we

all say, oh my gosh, wait, what do you do for iheart's side? Anyway, I'm a big fan of this lounge because last year so jingle Ball twenty twenty four, I was in this lounge and at the very end, I was leaving and this girl came up to me and she said, I'm so sorry. I know you're here with your two daughters, and I didn't want to bother you, but I'm here with my friends and we're the biggest nine or two and ohero fans. And I said, oh my god, don't worry. I'm not like that, like, let's

take it. I always do that. I'm like, let's take a picture. Let's do it. And me, I'm always chatting. So we take this picture and she goes, I am so grateful. If I can ever do anything for you. I work with Airbnb, and I said, oh my gosh, I love Airbnb. For big fans. We always use Airbnb. You guys do it right. Grateful. She and I exchanged numbers, calling it all back. Lead with kindness always. In January, when the fires happened in La and we had to evacuate,

and evacuate fast. Luckily our house was fine. Grateful. I was like, where are we going to go? I'm loading the dogs, the cats, pack a bag, guys grab the photo albums. Who knows what's going to happen. And I went, oh my gosh. I took a moment. I did a deep breath, and then I texted her and I said, we have to evacuate, and she goes, I got you. I'm getting like chills, We're gonna cry. She put us

in touch someone that worked with her. They got on the phone and they stayed on the phone while I drove, and they found us a place quickly and in Camera Rio, which we went and stayed. And anyway, I like to believe that everything comes back around and it's good karma, even though I don't know it's karma real. Yeah, I just shared it's real. So I'm grateful she was there for us. Anyway, back to the event. We get out of the car and I'm meaning my point person for

the evening. Her name is Emma Markin, and I'm saying her full name because I freaking love this human now. I told her first of while I get out of the car and she was awesome, and I said, I'm so sorry, Emma. Yes, may give you a hug. Yes, And I said, I'm so sorry we're running late. She goes late. She goes, you're right on time, like you might even be early for your lineup. And I was like, oh my god, I was so panicked. She goes, oh no, she goes, we got this, and I'm like, oh my god,

I love you already. Basically, I gave a shout out to Emma on Instagram with a picture of her, me, Kim and Jowles, and I was like, Emma, welcome to the collective. But anyway, I apologize. I said, just in advance. I'm really fun and I'm I'm gonna make a lot of jokes and she's like okay, And basically we had the same humor, so it all clicked. But of course I'm like, sorry, you got me. But at the end of the night, Emma not sorry, you got me. We had the best nights all of us, and she was

on point. She got me in there. So in fact, she's like, okay, so we're in go to the red carpet or what do you want to do? Do you want to go the gifting lound and I'm like, you know me, I'm like people please, or I'm like what do they want me to do? And she's like no, no, no, this whole night it's kind of structured. As long as you know, you do the press line, do all that we want to take you, the gifting suite if you

want to, whatever you want to do. And I said, well, you know what, I get really nervous, even though you wouldn't know that with press lines, so let's do that first. So my nerves are like huh. So at this point where she picks us up underground, we have to walk the into it Dome real far to get to where the press line is. Now I'm talking real far. Keep in mind, I'm in these versatchy heels that I wore once a year ago, don't wear heels anymore. And I

have to walk, which felt in Tory world like a mile. Wait, it might have been a mile, it might have been even further. And we're hustling. So I'm like, okay, I want to get there and do it. And I'm trying to now keep in mind my two friends and Emma like, I'm here with these three girls. I'm a lot older, but I'm trying to fit in. I'm cool, you know. Keep in mind, Kim Kim wore Doc Martin's great choice jewels, wore like it was kind of like platform boots, high boots,

badass boots. Emma what was Emma wearing? I mean she was working it, so she was wearing some short shoes. Right here, I am the old asshole wearing these Versachi stilettos, and I'm like, oh my god, am I gonna be okay? So I'm like trying to like walks as we're walking, as people go, oh, oh my god, to worry spelling. Oh look, and everyone's pointing, and I'm just like, okay, I got to look right here, I'm in this winky

swinky No one says that anymore. I'm in this hot two piece Boosetts, this dress that's like see through with these little black booty shorts the show underneath, and these rat ass high Basatchi heels. So I'm trying to like walk shoulders back, got my chop going, and I'm stumbling, you guys, because my headstone a line not like Shakira and yep, I'm going back to the five sea sections. Everything. It's like I'm walking. I'm trying to think what I was walking like in my mind, like a clod hopper

that's like a horse reference. Oh, which brings me back to Chelsea Handler was there and I saw her at some point and my girls are like, oh my god, Chelsea Handler. And I was said, oh, do you know her? And I was like, do you want to say hi? I said no, no, no, she hates me. I'm scared. I'm terrified. And they said why and I said, well, in the day, like back in the day when she had hurt, you know, she had Chelsea Lately, she had her talk show. She I said, she used to make

a joke about me. I want to say, like every week, and I could. I was so like, I loved her so much. I thought she was so funny. And we had actually met years before that when I had before she blew up. When I did my show So Notorious loosely based in my life, my two co creators and writers and showrunners, Chris Alborghini and Mike Chessler, they were like, Chelsea Handler, she's this up and coming comedian. Do you

want to go see her? Because we think she could be it to play your best friend in the show. That was loosely based. I played Tori, a version heighten version of myself. It was a comedy, single camera, way ahead of its time. She'd make a comeback, So no two thousand, two point zero, so no two point Anyway, went to the show. Chelsea was so funny and she was so cool. We hung out afterwards and I was like,

we're good, and then cuts to Chelsea. This was not my fault, like the network NBC, because then I did the pilot for NBC and then it went on to didn't get picked up. They picked up my name. My name was Earl found out the Kentucky Derby. That's a whole other story. Yeah. I was like, got that call, feeling real good about myself, and then I was like, oh my god, listen, I'm not bitter. My name is Earl.

A great show, it deserved it. I'm still a little bitter. Anyway, it wasn't meant to be, but I was like, I believe in this show and went on to sell it to VH one. It was the first scripted show they ever did. It might have been the last scripted show they ever did because Flavor Flav my boyfriend who I love so much, but he was doing a Flavor of Love? Was that right where the girl who is the one?

It was a competition love show and basically she told the producers like, I have to go to the bathroom, and they made her stand up there and they were like almost almost you know, we're filming. Took a ship up there. Do you remember this, Adrian, Oh my god, it looked it up this girl. I feel terrible for her. It's all over. It went viral they back then, anyway, so you see it. Oh yeah, she had explosive diarrheca. She was like, I gotta go. She just like she

was in her defense. She was like, it's a competition show. And I was listening to the producer and they said just wait wait you know, and I couldn't hold anymore and they wouldn't. They said, no break, but they didn't know. They were thought she probably just had to pee or something. They were like, just hold it, were almost done filming. Uh anyway, poor thing took a shit up there anyway, So that was always my line, like, oh didn't work at VH one. I guess, you know, just people shitting

themselves as all that works. Who knew I'd go on to become friends with favor Flave love him anyway, that was a long time ago. What was my point? Bring me back? Who knows? One never knows Chelsea Handler. So I thought we were all good. And then she went on to become uber famous, had her own talk show, and she would make jokes about me like a lot.

It wasn't like once or twice, it was like often, and self deprecating is my jam because I was like, well, you can't beat them, join them, and so I was always making jokes about myself, which Whitney Cummings, a comedian who is brilliant and a very good friend of mine. She was always like, you know what, so Notorious was ahead of its time, and it's brilliant, and we're going to make that show again. She goes, but we're not gonna rely on self deprecating humor. She's like, you're bigger

than that. You've evolved. You don't have to put yourself down to get the joke. Okay, I'm gonna go with that. But at the time self deprecating was in, I could take a lot. I had really tough skin. I had no choice because people made fun of me in the press all the time. And then Chelsea Handler. I was like, I thought she liked me? What is happening anyway? The big thing that always stayed with me and I can't ever unhear it. You can unhear words. Be careful what

you say about people. She called me horse face. Oh yeah, see, I'm bringing that back around. I felt like I was walking like a clawd hopper, like stomping like a horse. Anyway, I saw Chelsea Handler that night and all I could think is she called me horse face, which self deprecating, I could take a joke. She and I didn't have a conversation, but ooh ok, let's see if we can get her on the podcast. That would be amazing because there's a really good story, which I'm gonna save it

for when Chelsea and I talk. But anyway, I ended up doing her show, Chelsea Lately. After do you remember that? Like, she had her talk show, but then she did a scripted version of behind the scenes. It was kind of very you know what I'm talking about, After Lately. It was called her real writers were there, they had people and it was like behind the scenes, but it was scripted and improv and anyway, they asked me to be on it, and I wanted to be like, no, she's

so mean to me. But I was like, just like when they were like and Scream, the first one like, oh, great, they're gonna make a movie about your life. Well never Campbell says, well, my luck, they'll cast Tory smelling. I was like, that's painful. They're saying I'm a bad actress, but I'm going to use that. And I went on to be in Scream too, which was like a famous move on my part anyway, So I said, oh my god,

she's so mean to me. Absolutely, I'll do it. So I went in and they scripted this whole thing and it was really funny. She and I had nothing together. It was like a celebrity was coming on the show and behind the scenes and it was the writer's room. And at the end, I threw in I don't remember what it was, we'll have to find it, but you know,

Chelsea's not here, Da da dah. And as I'm leaving, I said, tell her horse face says hello, and I saw everyone freeze like and I left and one of the writers afterwards was like, I was like, yeah, she called me horse face on her show, and he's like, no, I know, and he's like, you're really funny, and I was like and self deprecating humor story of my career anyway.

So anyway, I haven't seen her still in all these years, except with the Bravo boards where I won Autobiography of the Year and instead of thinking my family, my husband or God, I thinked because everyone does that award shows. I thanked all my haters and I think Chelsea and she was there, but that's a whole other story anyway. So yeah, she was there that night, but I was scared to say hi. But now I want to say hi, but like not high. I just want to like have

a conversation on my podcast. I'm going to manifest that. Going back to getting to the red carpet, I am trying to hustle on these heels. I'm stomping like a horse and I'm like, oh my gosh, so my glam My friends, Jewels and Kim link arms with me, but I'm still walking like and I said, wait, guys, stop stop, don't link arms. And I'm like why and I was like,

we're helping you because these heels are high. I said no, because no one in my life, like someone will be like Toy's spelling had to be helped by friends because she was drunk. Meanwhile, stone cold sober. Anyway, so I wanted to take off the shoes, and I said, guys, can can I take off these shoes so we can friggin walk and run? And I was like, no, to oneself, next time Haru drives me, take a pair of flipflops.

And so anyway, they were like, eh, no, no, no, no, You're gonna walk on these floors that you're gonna get disease. And I was like, at this point, you know, you don't know how bad and my tone notes are like, but I didn't. I listened to them, and I said, oh, I wish I had socks. And I looked over and I said, wait, as we're walking fast, I was like, any of the merch places have like fun socks or something. Anyway, I stayed in those mofo heels and I got there and I was out of breath and my feet were

killing me. And I was like, okay, here we are, put on your poker face, uh, and let's go do the red carpet. And then right before I stepped on and was like, are you ready, I'm like yes. And then I was like, oh god, this dress. It's perfect for an over the shoulder look and it's see through except for the black booty shorts ak like full butt underwear part of the dress. I was like, oh god, wedgie alert, I got a weggie and I'm like, oh my god, right cheek it's like going up my crack.

I don't know what to do. I can't go into the red carpet like this. Uh. And then I was like, okay, well, everyone was gonna pick it out. Sorry, this is me. And then I went to do it and I remembered my claws are back. The dress is super tight. The sheer part. Oh my god. I couldn't do it. So I had to like I had to knuckle it. I had to knuckle that weggie out. But I did it really quick. In fact, I did so quick. Emma, who earlier was like, do you want me to take bts,

I'm like video behind the scenes, quae. Yes. Uh. Emma actually captured me pulling my knuckling my wedgie out of my right butt cheek right as I go onto the red carpet. Yeah, I have that video. It's on my Instagram right now. Anyway, I step onto the red carpet, shoulders back, you know, got my pose down, doing all the looks. Usually I talk a lot, like I talk to everyone because I see all the same, you know, photographers on the press line, the paparazzi, and I always

want to be like, hi, how are you? Oh wait, give me a second, oh that. But I've taken note lately because when I do that, I'm just giving them reason to post a photo of me like mid like my eyes popping out, mid mouth, like oh, you know talking. I've seen celebrities like the A listers, you know what they do, and I see the videos. They walk, they don't talk, They hold their frame, they hold their luck. They look one set of photographers, then they go to

the ring down the line. They do their different poses, but they don't spend too much time talking to them because you're just giving them something bad to post. So I'm trying to learn anyway, I'm doing the red carpet. It's uneven. I'm not sure why, but it's red. It's a carpet. They were like maybe the electrical chords were underneath, probably so they could get lights in for all the people doing interviews, like you know, they had the video

crews there and everything. So I'm trying to walk in these black VERSATCHI heels, but I'm like starting to stumble, and I'm like, oh my god, that's all I need is to freaking go down on this red carpet. At least I got the wedgie out. But I'm gonna go down this red carpet and they're gonna be like, oh my god, Tori smelling down and out at jingle Ball. You can get it down and out in Barbara Hills. God, that's an old reference. That's an old movie starting that

Oh my gosh, Richard Dreyfus female. Basically, it's about a wealthy family in Beverly Hills and they take Nick Nolty. Yes, he takes in a homeless man, correct, who ends up having an affair with his wife. Oh my gosh, I know exactly. I could see her. She just look at me. I'm like, who is the female? Oh, just you know, just bet, just Bet Middler. I can't Richard Dreyfz Bet Middler or Nalty Correct. He was the homeless man that they made the clean cut. It's, oh my gosh, great movie.

If you have to, I have to show my kids. That movie. That's eighties right, that's old school anyway, I digress. So then I'm like in my head, I'm like, I'm going to get these sails off before I go down. I can't stumble here. But being the good show pony I am. Oh see, I brought back that horse of reference. There you go. That's called a call back people. I'm

real good. Uh. I finished all the photos through the back over the shoulder, did all my interviews really excited, talked about jingle Ball, talked about my iHeart family, proud of my two podcasts, plug this shit out of misspelling podcast yo, and also told them how Brian, Austin Green and I are going to be in Vegas December twenty eighth. We're doing Brian and Torry after Dark because the Backstreet Boys have, you know, their big residency, and we're going

Oh my god, how am I gonna stay awake? Resbleu? Yeah, so Voltaire, it's connected. It's the it's a really cool venue because it's one of I think the only one of the only it's a club atmosphere, but it also has seats, so it's like an immersive experience, full tear, and we're

So anyway, it's our twenty fifth wedding anniversary of David

and Donna. They got married on camera the very last episode of nine O two and oh tenth season in two thousand and it is twenty twenty five, you guys, and start twenty fifth wedding anniversary, which is really cool because that's like an iconic There's always monumental anniversaries, right, like ten year anniversary, twenty five years. I remember my parents' twenty fifth wedding anniversary and we had family and friends.

Oh my gosh. My dad went to SMU and he was a yell leader before he became a writer, actor and then producer. So I remember at the twenty fifth wedding anniversary of my mom dad SMU, they like came out and brought his like yell, like cheer, like they had it framed there, like because it was iconic that Aaron Spelling went to SMU and they brought out something and SMU came, I want to say, like the marching

band and all that. I don't know. We used to leave it really fancy life, but he was so grateful and so proud of going to SMU. And my dad is from Dallas, Texas. Anyway, I digress. It is David and Donna's twenty fifth wedding anniversary. Lisa got a twenty fifth wedding anniversary on camera, which will live on forever. Iconic couple Brian Austin Green and I are still best friends in real life and we raise our families together,

and yeah, so anyway, it's our anniversary year. It's the Silver Anniversary and where David and Donna Silver get it, get it? Okay. So I finished the red carpet, and as soon as I finished the red carpet, I'm like, oh my god, these heels have to come off. I don't care. I'm gonna walk around barefoot the rest of the night. So I take the heels off. But I haven't quite finished the red carpet yet, because I'm like, still on it. I just moved past the last video interview.

So of course I take off my shoes and I'm like, oh, cute, let's take some photos because I hadn't taken a photo in the red carpet yet with Kim and jewels, and I was like, come on, girl, let's get in. I'll just stand on my tippy toes. So I go to pull my dress up. Hopefully no one got a picture of this, but all of a sudden, I look down, I'm like the toes, Oh my god, the friggin toes. Oh my god. It all comes back around. Something was

telling me to clip those toenails. Oh god, before the gynecologist that was only a week ago, would have been okay anyway, didn't do it. So there they are cutest feet in the books anyway, but there's the long toenails. And people love, you know, wiki feet. They love to rate celebrities feet. I have a pretty high score. But you know pictures and now people zoom in right, so if you take a picture of someone and they happen to be showing toes, you could like zoom in screenshot it. Anyway.

I famously love to make jokes on Misspelling podcast about my feet Finder career because this goes back to a story years ago on Christmas where my son Finn was like mom, because I was like, oh, my friend Denis Richard she joined OnlyFans and he was like OnlyFans, Mom, forget it. I was like, oh, you know, and he was like no way. He's like, you want the real money, mom, feet Finder. At the time, I didn't no feet find her.

It was on Christmas. I've told this story before, and it was like we had had a huge Christmas Eve. We went all out a full day. I was just gonna cook dinner and I was like guys, and we're like, nope, we'll do it tomorrow. Uh, and we ended up just ordering Chinese food. Finn at the time like never looked up from his phone. I thought, he's not even hearing this conversation. We were at the other end. It was my baby daddy, so my then husband Dean, his son

Jack Lola, Jack's sister. So we're like the older ones, you know, the younger ones are kind of sitting down the other end of the table. They weren't that young that this was just in twenty twenty three. Uh nope, twenty twenty two. I'm a date girl anyway. Uh yeah, when we thought they don't hear anything, and that's when he like looks up. He followed. The whole conversation was like feet find her, mom, that's the way you make

all your money. That was a fun night because I I went down a deep rabbit hole a feet finder because I didn't even know what it was. But I always make a joke now because of that story. On my podcast like ooh, all's fails, I'll have my feet Finder career. Oh, I can always have feet Finder. And then I always ask like guests like do you know feed finder? And most of them are like no, what's feet finder? So it's this running joke in my life. And then we cut to my toes on a huge

giant jingle Ball twenty twenty five red carpet. Cut to my toes, the long ass claw like and not good claus like these just like unquaffed, long, jinky toenails. So I was like, oh my god, well I loved you ever Adri there at the time, I did not notice. To be honest, I really didn't. I noticed you were my toenails. They did not notice any terrible looking toes. Really correct, Well, I was like, oh my toenails, my toes, And then you and I made the joke like, well

there goes my feet finder career. God, now I feel compelled to take a picture and show the world. I shouldn't do that. Nope, nope, nope, nope. You know what feet Finder? They have like niche markets, like people are like, oh, you know like fetishes, like oh we like dirty feet, We like you know some weird ass shit. I'm sure there's like long toenail ones on there. In fact, I'll look this up after right, but we want to know that I have to get a pedicure. That's the message

here is I need to get an actual pedicure. It'll be my yearly pedicure. It is December twenty twenty five. Anyway, this all works out. We go to the gifting suite and Emma so and I. She's like, you know what, don't worry. If you don't want to do the gifting,

you don't have to do it. And I said, no, no, no, you know, all these like companies are here and it's really nice and it helps them out if you promote them and like take a picture with the things they're they're giving you a to you for free, which is super kind. So I always do the gifting suite. This one, oh my god, was the best yet. iHeart O the lineup you had. All I'm gonna say is something told me like I really wanted to go get a cocktail

with my it's mom's night out. I wanted to go to the lounge and have like a drink because we haven't had one drink yet. Right, just one drink with my girls and have our night out. But something really told me I got to do this gifting suite. Glad I did it because I walk in, I screamed. I squealed the first table. I see Skibbity Toilet, Adrian, this doesn't mean think to us, but Skibbity Toilet is like the biggest thing for the kids, like the teens. Oh

my god, so Skimmity Toilet had this even start. I don't really know, but my kids used to prank me, and before it was like big, like it's the cartoon. It's basically like a toilet and like a superhero like guy like coming out of the toilet and it's like Skimbity Toilet and he saves the day. And it's not not that it's not peac like. Even the kids know it, the young kids, So I don't know. Anyway, it's all

the rage. I believe they have short cartoons. Anyway, come to find out, Michael, it's so huge and it's taken off so big that Michael Bay is making the Skibbity Toilet movie. This is how I come to find out. So I see Skimby Toilet, I already felt bad that I was leaving my kids for the night, and bo is so bummed, and I was just like a bingo like Skibbity toilet, I'm gonna this. Wow, this is going to be everything. So, I mean, I used to not

know this when it first started. The kids like they always want to get the parents because we're old and not cool to say words that they like do it. So they'd be like, oh, skibby toilet. But they didn't say that to me. They tried to convince me. One of our friends. She literally they told me that was her middle name is Skibvity, because they wanted me to say her full name was Skibbty so they could all punk me and then go and be like I didn't know.

I was like, wow, that's an unfortunate middle name, Skivity. That's weird that family name, Like, where'd that come from? Skibvity, Like she has such a beautiful first and last name like Scivity. Okay, so I said it for a good long time, you guys, I thought that girl's name and she's like a close friend and family like to us, I thought our middle was Skibbney. Anyhow, so I go up and I say, oh my god, I'm Tory. I meet Dylan who works with Skimby Toilet. They have a

whole product line. Now I think it's a target. It's like, I don't know where it is, but literally it's entire product line. They had calendars, they had all the characters. They literally had small ones. They had big like Transformer giant ones. And I was like, oh my god, coloring books, everything. I said, Dylan, you have no idea. Oh my god, I my kid's favorite. And he's like, oh cool, thank you. And I said, oh my son, bo I said. He said who's his favorite character? And I said, oh my god,

I don't know. I just know Skibbey Toilet. And I said, excuse me, do you mind if I call him? Yes, he's eight and he has a phone, feel free to judge me. So a text in him instead and I say, who is your favorite character from Skibbity Toilet? And he wrote back, cameraman Why. I said, don't worry about it. I'll be home in a couple hours. Be a good boy. Santa's watching anyway, I say, cameraman and Dylan goes, ooh god.

He goes because they're giving everyone these like small figurines, right, like figures, Action figures, and he's like, oh my god, everyone loves that one. I just gave out the last one and I was like, oh, it's okay, it's okay, and he was like, you know, he was like no, He's like, I really like your energy, and I'm an energy person. I said I like your energy too, and he's like, and you're really nice. And I was like thanks, so are you, and he goes, well, I'm telling you guys.

It was like two feet three feet this giant cameraman just sitting at his like gifting table and he's like, here's cameraman. And I said this one. What and he goes, take it home. Be the hero that you are. Oh my god, blew my mind. Of course, for like a good two months, I'd be like I can't take this. I don't I'm not worth it. Oh my god, I feel bad. And he was like, no, take it. And so I'm like, all right, fine, you don't have to ask tell me twice. He told me like seven times.

Could I say no, no, no, I can't take it. No, no, no, I can't take it. Okay? So I took it. Giant got it didn't have heels on. I couldn't have walked with that thing. That's how massive it was. My kids love the word massive. They try to make me say massive, massive whatever. Anyway, he says to me, how many kids you have and I said five. They're such huge fans and he goes So that's when he told me Michael Bay is doing like it's the cartoon the Shorts, but

he's making a live action Skimpy Toilet movie. And he did Transformers back in the day, and he's seeing it as like the new model for like Transformers, then Skimpy Toilet is the day. And I was like, that is brilliant, and he was like, do you want to come to the Michael based studios and bring the kids and get behind the scenes, like, come see what's going on for the day. They can see people actually doing the cartoons

sketching Skibby Toilet it's going to come out. And I said, oh my god, I said, wow, are you really trying to make me a hero? Yes, so I'm happy to say that the kids and I are going to go do that in the new year. So I'm super sorry to pumped. Anyway. Other notable things I got to see Thrive Cosmetics. There were a great cause love them. Oh my gosh, there were so many. Oh the fart book. Oh yeah, the fart book. The most talented fart are Ruthanne always gets mad because she was like, stop always

talking about farts and poop. And I'm like, I'm like a five year old. I love talking about farts and poop. Sorry. So anyway, I took a picture with them. Love that brought that home. Bo has not stopped. You push the button and it farts as you tell the story. He loves the book, Thank you, and I believe Michael Rosenbaum wrote that so really cool. Anyway, there's so many other good things. I got to make a charm bracelet. I really had fun doing that. Got to see a lot

of things. And then all of a sudden, before we're kind of near the end, I look over and Elf on the shelf is there. Oh my god, oh let's bring this home. So I walk over and I say to them, oh my gosh, you have no idea. I am such a huge fan. You have been part of our history, of our tradition. Every year, I love slash hate you. And she looks at me and she goes,

I understand, and I'm like, oh, my god. I said, do you have a minute because you're dealing with a lot of people, and she's like, it's near the end of the night. She's like please, and I said, I just got a vent to someone. So Mike I was like, go big or go home. I said, I have five kids eighteen to eight. And I said, when I started this all I went big. It's like birthday parties. I didn't know I was going to have five kids. I

didn't know i'd be fifty two and exhausted. I didn't know that I would have to live up to what I created. So I used to di why the shit out of that? Back in the day when Liam still in, Finn and Hattie were a little I mean, I went balls to the wall that would it would be the most creative thing, and I had fun doing it. I love creating a story, so I would go all out

and I would create the craziest best DIY things. I remember last one year, I like baked the mesal lasagnia because I'm famous for making lasagna, and I put the recipe no no elves harmed in the making hand lasagna like the oven was not on. But I made up an elf recipe for Lassana, of course, it was all instead of the savory, it was sugar. Like I'm telling you, I felt long and hard about these not This is what's fun for me is I never thought any of

them out. I would literally wait for the kids to go to bed and I would be like, brain on creativity, Hi, let's go, and I would just walk in and look around and see what came to me. And it was part of the fun for me was improving basically. I love improv and acting basically, so I was like, let's go with it anyway. So I start to tell her. I said, now, Bo, who is eight, the older kids have taken over. I have handed them the elf baton and they're my girls are doing all this creative like

do I whys? And really cute because you know they came out of utero basically do I wy? And their crafters a hurt and I said, my boys, though, oh my god, they will do some like not appropriate, funny dirty things that you know, my eight year old and like their in Ternald thinking like funny and I'm like, poor Bo. She goes, oh my god, I've heard the craziest stories. So we swapped stories. I was like they did this one. I was kind of dirty they did

this one. And then she's like, oh, I've had parents tell me that they came down and their teenager, like their ninth year olds, had done this for the little one. I was like, oh my god. So we're laughing. Long story short, She's like, do you want anything? And I was like, oh my gosh. And this time I said yes to the elf. I was like, lay it on me because I'm gonna go home and bow. Oh my gosh. I was already feeling pretty good because I, you know, we had gotten all this like skippity toilet. So by

the way, we have like old school elves. Wow, the sun just changed. We have old school elves. So we've had the same elves for years. Like I didn't know there was new stuff this year. Elf mates, the ones they can touch, my god, you don't have to put some in sugar mixture. My poor our elves have like they've been touched so many times that came off wrong, and you always have to, like the kid touches them to get their magic back, you have to like put cinnamon and sugar and mix them up and then they

get their magic back. But tradition I couldn't change it down our elves because we've had them forever. So they have like brown stained collars from cinnamon and like all this stuff. But I didn't know they make new ones. Now there's like elf babies, there's the Frosty, the snowman. I mean, we have this dog, we have the fox, we have whatever. But yeah, anyway, all this fun new stuff.

So but was super psyched to get all that. So do that and then I'm walking and I know, like God, I'm gonna have to walk back out of here at the end of the night. I cannot put these shoes back on. I don't know what I'm gonna do. And it's like magic happened, you know, I believe in signs.

Right before I'm leaving, I heard says, oh, do you mind doing one picture with the tree, And I believe it was the Capital One tree that sponsored that worked with iHeart and sponsored, and they said it socks, fuzzy socks. All we need is a picture of you, like posing with the sock. Oh, what bring it back around? I said, oh, first of all, gladly anything from my iHeart family. And then I took that sock. Oh look at me, I mean, it's days later. I'm still wearing these fuzzy socks. Don't worry,

I wash them. You're right anyway, Oh my god, the best fuzzy socks ever. Anyway, I put those fuzzy socks on and I was able to leave. We did go down to the lounge. We did have I never do shots. I actually, because I was with my girls, we had tequila shots silver Blanco. Oh, silver wedding anniversary. Uh. I never do tequila. Nothing good comes from tequila. I've learned that in the past that I stopped, but we did. We had two tequila shots with a spray back. I'm like,

is that a thing? I only know pickle back? But I don't go out Anyway, The girls and I had a great time, and I wore my socks easily walk back to the car. And that was our night. What a beautiful night. And in fact, for someone who was like originally like I'm gonna go alone, be there for my iHeart family. I'm gonna walk that red carpet, do my press interviews, and then just go back home. I went from that to as we were leaving the lounge, I heard someone say, night, Torri, you're closing the place

dan On grants. It was only eleven o'clock. It's not like it's crazy late. My girls and I we went out. We had a mo night out and we closed the place down. And then I was like, oh, these black feathers, God be really careful with these. And I don't know, it's eleven o'clock. Better get home before midnight. Who knows what those feathers would have turned into. Oh my gosh, imagine the feathers. Don't feed them after midnight. Ooh, it would turn into like vulture. Now I have no in there.

But I was like, we got to get home before midnight at that but I was like, we gotta get home before midnight because I don't know. It's kind of like Cinderella at the ball, like what happens the pumpkin disappears, like I don't know, the shoes had already disappeared. And I was like, who knows if we don't get home before midnight. I mean there's that version like the Cinderella, like I gotta get home before midnight because everything goes away and I'm the bell of the ball. Oh you

get it, I'm bringing it back. And then I was like, of course, I always have to make like a Gremlins reference. So I had to go dark. I couldn't just be bright light. I had to go dark afterwards. And I was like, oh, these feathers, who knows what happens if you feed them after midnight? So we left. We got home before midnight, and I did have Tacoba. I took off. I took off the dress. Don't worry, Janie, the one of a kind piece, I took it off. I got cozy,

kept on my cozy socks. Oh you know what I wore. I wore Gia Judice, her uh, her swag, her merch line, her sweatshirt that they also had there. I wore that because I ended up wearing that when I got home, and that hoodie is brilliant so soft love it anyway, Gia, y owe me for that bloog. Just kidding. I love your mom, you know, but literally, I was so happy

my kids were still up. We ended up putting on I don't even know why, but we sat there we ate taco Bell, dressed in my cozy socks from Capital One, and iHeart my hooded sweatshirt. Hooded sweatshirt, take that back, my hoodie and all the other kids were like, we're tired. Finn stayed up with me and we watched Liar Liar. That is old school, such a good movie, and Finn, it's nice, Like my life's so hectic right now. The kids have their friends and it's nice. Sometimes we're all

we move as a unit because we have to. I don't get to spend individual time with every single kids often in I would like So that night everyone else went to bed. Bo was asleep already, so he got the reveal the next day skimpy toilet and Elf on the shelf and all the stuff I brought home with him, and he was like, this is the best. The next morning he goes he got his cameraman, the giant one, and he goes, Mom, this is the best day of

my life. Like yes, but anyway, Phinn and then I connect and we watch Liar Liar and they know Jim Carrey and they love him, you know, they know him from the Grunch and I'm like, we're gonna go way back. So I took him back. We watched Liar Liar together and he goes, Mom, it's a really good movie. I'm like, that's her mom's day. Yeah, bringing it all back bye,
