Okay, I have not seen the Beverly Hills housewice, but I've watched every clip coming through on it on the reunion on Kathy et cetera. Okay, one day we'll do full like I've known Kathy and Kyle and Kyle's mother, Big Kathy, since Farah was four years old. I know the whole entire thing, like I have background. I was Paris and Hilton's like nanny, like drive to school person. I'm fully like embedded, knee deep and like old school Hilton ship. Okay, so that we can do on another day.

But to the houses Kathy used to live in, a house of Jacklin Smith lived in, like I got, I've been there. You know, I know Kathy. We spoke recently, like Kathy and Kyle will make up. And one of the things I'll say when I discussed the whole you know Hilton Tree, is that they just didn't play at the Kardashian way. They did not play at the Kardashian These are siblings that have divided because this toxic show

and the differences. The Kardashians produced their own show. They control the edit, they control the content, They controlled the producing, They control the program. When you're just a pawn in the Bravo sphere, you don't control the storyline. So if the Hilton's could control the way that the show was produced, like the Kardashians, they wouldn't be these riffs because somebody would be in charge, like Kathy, and Kathy was always

in charge. That's the difference to Kim. I mean, Kim, Kyle was the one who was with Maurice, who you know, was in the garment industry, a Mexican Jew living in Beverly Hills, from a nice family. But he wasn't at the level he's at now. He worked for Rick, went off on his own, his body, his choice. Those kind of things always hurt. And then Kyle did become more relevant and more famous, and Kathy now walked into Kyle's room.

It's always been Kathy's room. She's the matriarch. She was always like you know, up here, and I remember the whole family coming into Lascala, and I've known them forever. I mean, I remember meeting Kyle and I was very close with Kyle. And so the levels change, and when dynamics and power struggles change in a family, it affects the family dynamic you know when just Ashley Simpson became very famous and Jessica Simpson is here and then it became her. You see how it happens the Demilio's one

gets hot, one starts it, one gets higher. You know, Kylie for a minute came up higher than Kim and that stuff does does happen and does affect families. Chris is like a mafia boss, is like, I'm not fucking having it in this house. Like all boats rose with the fucking tide. So we'll all play the game and we will not wash our dirty laundry in public. Can kill each other privately, and if we kill each other on the show, for everybody to eat out of our hands.

It's content that we've produced that e is was airing in and now it's Hulu and we make money from them, and we're in business them and they're not gonna fund us because then we won't do the show again. So we produced the show, We produced the content. The Hilton's have zero point zero and Kyle has zero point zero power in what gets aired. That's why the ship has on sideways on this show and would never go sideways. So every time you read something, you take the bait

about Tristan or all this other bullshit. It's completely produced, So I'll share whatever you want me to share in my life as long as I can, you know, molded like a nice piece of clay and shine it up before it gets to you. But over here in the Kathy Kyle Kim world, they fucking put it all in the oven and they have no idea what's coming out.

Over in in Kardashian Hulu land. When you're watching it, it's all been shined up and baked and frosted and approved by Chris Kim and the whole Kardashian clan before it comes to be presented to you on your platter. Very different animals. One is way closer to reality ship show family drama. One is a produced show that may as well be The Hills. That's a fact. Those are facts.

That is not speculation. Those are the facts. So and I am crying laughing at the clip I heard of Erica Jane saying when someone said about that Erica leaked things to the press and that there is proof, There's never really any proof because reporters don't give up their sources. But you could get pretty close to it. You could really get close to it and be right. Erica Jane said, I don't know how to do that. Now. I've often said about different people, but in particular Rica Jayne, you

can't play stupid and smart at the same time. I don't know how to do that. I mean, even at the bottom of like a Perez Hilton post or like US Weekly for tips to like you have a publicist. That's really funny. If this isn't string theory, this isn't something that people are like minds are exploding over a Tesla coming up with a new electric car that can fucking fly itself, Like, you don't know how to like that made you guilty. I don't know how to place

an item. Okay, this is not like you know, sorting genetic matter on The Housewives. It's just so that made you a little guilty. Okay. So Kim Kardashian was booed at a RAMS game. I think it goes without saying that it's disrespectful and she has her kids with her. But every fan sitting in a stadium isn't thinking about the context of why Kim Kardashian's there and that she's

with her daughter. They just see a woman in Spandex and Giant Devo Shields, who is trying to sort of take over be the star of every single arena, including the football stadium. And I said that it's America's favorite pastime, which I've been corrected that that's baseball. I meant it's an American sport in an institution. And the fans, that's not what they're digesting. They don't seem to be interested

in Carl Lagerfeld and Valenciass. They seem to be die hard football fans that are eating hot dogs, taking their kids and their family people. The fans people came to correct me saying, you know, are the people making millions and the football players are they good role models? Because I said, you know, maybe these people who have sons and daughters want a role model that's not about filtering and superficiality and money grab and that these fans can't

be bought like the fashion industry. I've walked into rooms and had people in the fashion business and in the entertainment business say, thank god you said something about the Kardashians because they're afraid to say it. Because money makes the world go around, and Anna Wintour makes the fashion business go around and no one else wants to say something, so I said it, and I'm saying it here. I do not think it's correct to boo someone. I guess, I mean, that's like such a big thing to tackle.

It was just probably just a guttural instinct for individual people like oh this one again, We're nauseated, which is why I said something in the first place. Then the trolls or the people who have their opinion and they're entitled to it, who think I'm desperate and a loser, and I'm just wish I was like them, and I

don't wish I was like them. And I responded by saying, if I wanted to make more money, I would take the list of television shows being offered to me right now and the list of paid promo ads that I could do right now. It's just the fact of the matter. The fact is I'm not a person who can be bought. It's just what it is. Sorry, you can like it, you cannot like. You can say that I'm jealous, you could say that I'm obsessed. I don't care. Maybe I

am obsessed. Maybe I'm obsessed with the fact that the wrong people are in power and being admired and being put up on a pedestal. Maybe I'm completely entirely obsessed. So I'm obsessed. Great, let me be obsessed, and we need new role models. I said what I said. In the words of Nie Leaks, I said what I said.
