00:00You know, a lot of people, like we said, had a lot of opinions about this,
00:03and a lot of people spoke out, including Andy Cohen, calling this a self-inflicted wound.
00:10What was your reaction to that?
00:12I did not see it. Somebody told me about it. Self-inflicted, I did not hear that,
00:16but you know what? I would say that's accurate.
00:18Why do you feel that? Why do you feel that?
00:20Why do I feel that? Because I just reiterated, like, I shouldn't have posted it. It was me
00:24posting it. I have to realize that me posting it is, in fact, a self-inflicted wound. I did not
00:31think it was going to go down that way. I thought that people would see the video and be like,
00:34how rude was this guy to you? And he doesn't even know you. So it's fine. It's all good. Lesson
00:39learned. Sure. Yeah. Danielle and Margaret
00:41also spoke out. Margaret said that, you know. Oh, Danielle? You mean you mean Scam-Yell?
00:46Scam-Yell? It would be between her hair girl, whom she never paid, to take down all the posts
00:51that include her, which was her form of payment. Now, listen, I may put people on blast and make
00:58them take accountability, which Scam-Yell should know this best, but I don't hustle people. I don't
01:04hustle people. I pay my bills. I pay people. I don't hustle people and take something for nothing.
01:10So sometimes you got to look at the opinion and where it's coming from. So we're good,
01:14Scam-Yell. You keep it moving. What about Margaret speaking out?
01:18I don't know what Margaret said. What did Margaret say?
01:20She basically said that, I think the two of you spoke recently and how-
01:23I saw her at the Gucci outlet. I saw her at the Gucci outlet. We were ignoring each other at first.
01:28My kids were like, Margaret's here with Lexi. And I was there with my sister-in-law,
01:33Bill's brother's wife, and my four nieces and nephew. And I was treating them to a shopping
01:39spree at Gucci. And we had to get to the men's department where Margaret and Lexi were online,
01:45and I had to pass them. And I'm like, this is ridiculous. I can't say hello. It's New Year's.
01:51So I passed her and I said, hello. I introduced her to my sister-in-law and she was very sweet.
01:56And so was Lexi. And I believe in being cordial for the moment. There's no reason. I'm not a
02:03confrontational person, but if you're confrontational with me, I am a reactive person.
02:08Sometimes knee jerk reaction. And I have to learn how to pull back my reflexes a little bit,
02:15but I was a nice. And then she was saying something like, I don't think we have a job,
02:20by the way. I don't think any of us have a job. And I was thinking, you know what? It's become
02:24so toxic that whatever it is, it is. I respect Bravo and I respect that they know what they're
02:32doing. They've been in this business for a long time. If they feel we need to regroup,
02:37more power to you, more power to you. You know, I did this show more as like a platform.
02:43I like entertaining people. I I'm a people person. Like when I meet fans, I hug them. Christina,
02:49you see me. I'm the life of the party. I love engaging with fans. Like I love the fun aspect
02:56of it. But at the end of the day, I am a housewife for real, a mother. I'm tending to this huge
03:02house. I have an extended family that depends on me, not for financial support, but my parents
03:09can't read and write. You know, they only went to school up until fifth grade. And my sister works.
03:14Like I said, she's a widow. She's on her own. My brother's struggling with his family now,
03:18his family growing and financial responsibilities like really just overwhelming him. My other
03:24brother, Steven, he's on Long Island. He's into you know, he's very busy. I'm the only one that's
03:29left for all of this to be on my shoulders. So this show was supposed to be fun for me.
03:34It did not. It seems like it's not really going in that direction. And that's why I actually
03:40love to meet the fans. And I love to, like, engage with people because then they get to see
03:44the real me. And there's a lot that Bravo or I shouldn't say Bravo, that sirens cuts out
03:50a lot of my philanthropy. They've cut out a lot of incidences. They've cut out to,
03:53like, not show me in a good light. That's the production company. That's not Bravo.
03:57But Bravo knows what they're doing. And I respect them. If they want to ask for us back,
04:01we will cross that bridge when we get to it. If they don't, I really firmly believe that Bravo
04:06knows what they're doing. And like, case, Sarah, Sarah, you know, my life goes on.
04:12Are you worried that obviously, like you said, we have no idea what's going to go on.
04:16Andy said it could be another year until we find out what happens with Jersey.
04:19Are you worried that this incident could affect that going forward?
04:24You know, I don't only because I feel like by the time they regroup to even consider who they're
04:29going to recast or if they're going to recast, this will be such water under the bridge,
04:34I feel. So I don't really think that's a thing. Plus, by the time they reconfigure who's going
04:38to be on the staff, we don't I don't know where I'm going to be at that point in my life.
04:43You know, you know, I am a big believer in like that. God protects me. And, you know,
04:50my blessings are in the proof of my lifestyle and in the good that I do. I always constantly
04:55pay it forward. I do. Do I call people out on their crap when when I see bad behavior?
05:01Sure. But I'm learning now that I can't do that publicly.
