From Vanderpump Rules to Vegas and everywhere in between, it's time to party with Sheena Shea.
This is Shenanigans.
And now, here's your host, Sheena Shea.
Hey guys, we're back. I'm fresh back from Mexico.
I have, you know, my fave show is The Bachelor, Bachelorette, Bachelor in Paradise.
So I have another handsome man from The Bachelor and Bachelor in Paradise sitting next to me,
Mr. Wills Reed.
How are you?
What's up, guys?
I'm doing good.
How are you?
I'm good.
A little tired today?
Just a little bit, but you know, we're always powering through.
Yeah, I know.
I was just in Mexico for like five days with my crew of friends who you haven't met.
You've met my West Side friends.
You haven't met my West Hollywood friends.
Getting specific.
They fucking party.
So we just had five days in paradise.
Actually, we were in Puerto Vallarta.
What?
That's where you guys were.
Yeah.
It was gorgeous.
That's awesome.
I miss that place. Yeah. Yeah. You weren't were, right? Yeah. It was gorgeous. That's awesome. I miss that place.
Yeah.
Yeah, you weren't there very long.
Yeah.
We'll get into it.
How's your finger, by the way?
I see it's still in a splint.
My finger's still swollen, still bruised, still broken, but my disposition isn't.
Yeah, and it was a soccer game, right?
Mm-hmm.
I'm a goalie, and I missed the ball, and I slammed my hand into the turf pretty hard. It's a good story, though. Yeah. Instead of just saying, oh, it was a soccer game, right? I'm a goalie and I missed the ball and I slammed my hand into the turf pretty hard.
It's a good story though.
Yeah.
Instead of just saying, oh.
Someone said that I pinky promised someone too hard and I thought that was hilarious.
So I've said that a few times when people ask me.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's a good one.
That's also a good story.
When I first asked you last week, you're like soccer.
I'm like, oh, that's a boring story.
And then when you gave the details, I'm like, oh.
Yeah.
So you were just playing so hard.
Yep.
Yeah.
Put it all out there.
Well, tired or not, you still look good.
Oh, thank you.
We're going to have some fun.
I'm going to just, we're going to play a little game to wake you up.
Okay.
Have you played Heads Up before?
Yes.
Okay.
I'm really good at Heads Up.
Really?
Because I'm really good at Heads Up.
I'm pretty good at Heads Up.
Oh.
Like Heads Up, Taboo, like those type of games. Dude, me too. I'm really good at Heads Up. Really? Because I'm really good at Heads Up. I'm pretty good at Heads Up. Oh. Like Heads Up, Taboo, like those type of games.
Dude, me too.
I'm a monster.
Okay, we're doing this tonight.
We're watching.
I'm a monster at Taboo.
I'm going on the record and saying I'm a monster at Taboo.
We're going to find out tonight because we're literally playing.
We're going to watch Bachelor in Paradise and then we're going to play Taboo.
I kid you not.
Dude, this is like a thing with my old roommate and I.
Like people wouldn't play Taboo with us anymore.
They're like, you guys have all of these cards memorized.
And that was one of the games I wanted to play on here.
But when it's a more vocal and less visual thing, you can't see the words you're not supposed to say.
I think people's big gripe is they always just stop talking.
You just have to keep talking.
Yeah.
That's what it is.
Just keep saying things.
Yeah.
I used to play Taboo when I was a kid with my grandparents in the early 90s. so i've been playing that for a long time so i might be better than you i don't
know we'll find out but it got to the point where my roommate and i would have after parties game
nights all the times like i did that last night actually um me too some clue yeah so um what it
was um was like every time we would play i play, we would end up getting the card that said Danny DeVito.
And it would just be like a short actor.
She's like, Danny DeVito.
And we're like, da, da, da.
And they're like, you guys have these memorized.
I'm like, if you think we have that much time to memorize all these.
But it was just the Danny DeVito card always popped up when we were playing.
Interesting.
Did you guys like stack the deck and just put that in there?
You know, when we were drunk at the end of the night, maybe.
Maybe.
I don't know about cheating.
We're going to see tonight.
Okay.
We're going to do it.
Also, I just got on my deck.
So you haven't been to my place yet.
But it is a light up beer pong table.
So it has these like LED lights that go.
That's the picture you sent me, right?
Yeah.
But at night when it's like lit.
That's cool.
So dope.
I got life-size Jenga.
Life-size?
Yeah.
How big is your deck?
It's huge.
You can comfortably fit 20 to 30 people out there.
No joke.
Okay.
Yeah.
That's cool.
I stepped up my game for the first time with renting an apartment because I refused to
spend money on rent.
But after living in Vegas in this like dope condo penthouse, I was like, I can't go back
to Park La Brea with like no AC, carpet.
I've been there once.
No.
That place is interesting.
Yeah.
It's like District 9.
I'm not kidding.
I'm like, where am I?
Parts of it, definitely.
Yeah, I'm like, where am I right now?
Oh my God. That's so funny you said that. Okay. Well, where am I? Parts of it, definitely. Yeah, I'm like, where am I right now? Oh, my God.
That's so funny you said that.
Okay, well, you'll see my Marina place tonight.
It's dope.
Cool.
Okay, so do you want to guess first or describe first?
Well, you got to tell me the categories.
Okay, so we're going to do, you have three options.
Adult supervision.
Okay.
Adult supervision, even adulterer, two.
Or adult supervision, bad behavior, three.
What are these cats?
What happened to like-
They're the adult ones.
They're the fun ones.
What, you want just like celebrities?
Animals gone wild, that's basic.
I can do it.
We can do adult, whatever.
Whatever one-
I'm an adult.
We can do adult.
Okay.
So-
Just keep my image intact.
If you want to describe animals, if that's more you, I can guess the animals.
But I'm going to describe adult supervision.
When you say describe, do you mean that's going to be on your head or is it going to be on my head?
It's going to be on your head.
Oh, okay.
Let's go.
All right.
Oh, I have to guess adult topics?
Oh, my God.
I'm going to fail.
Wait.
It goes down if it's right, right?
Correct.
And up if it's wrong.
Yes.
Okay.
All right.
Down if it's right, up if it's a pass.

That was good.
I told you.
You didn't think I was going to get raunchy.
I didn't know if I could describe it as well.
And then I shouldn't have said on, but you can't describe on Slink without saying on,

I'll even give you eight.
You got WhatsApp. Let's go give you eight. You got WhatsApp.

It's like, okay, the door is off its...
The door is off its...
Hinge.
There we go.
Oh, never heard of that one.
So this is when...
This is a sexual position.
The girl is on top, but she's facing away from you while you're laying down.
The guy's laying down.
Superman?
What is that called?
The guy is laying down.
The girl's on top, but she's facing his feet.
Backwards cowgirl.
Reverse cowgirl.
Reverse, yeah, whatever.

No, the men's one.
Oh.
Calvin Klein.
Yeah. Close. Actually, that's one of my faves one oh yeah that's pretty good reverse no
there's remember seeing something that was something with a girl on top that's like, oh, it's super fun. You got into the advanced positions.
I'm going to have to work on my reverse cowgirl later.
Oh, I'm going to.
Whatever.
Anyway, that was great.
Good job.
We tied.
Yeah.
So now that you've woken up, we've talked about reverse cowgirl positions.
All right. So you grew up like Pasadena area. You's go. We've talked about reverse cowgirl positions. All right.
So you grew up like Pasadena area.
You were telling me, right?
Yes, Pasadena.
So you're like me.
We're very rare.
There aren't a lot of people who are like from LA in LA.
That's very true.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Anytime I meet someone, it's like they're a transplant from somewhere else.
I know.
And I'm like, wait, you're from here?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And when you gave me your
number and it was 626 i was like wait what funny story about that so i'm divorced okay um i don't
know if you knew that news to me haven't talked in a very long time long story short you and i
exchanged numbers yeah the next day i get a get a text from a 626 number.
And I was like, I thought I saved Will's number.
And I open it and it was him.
Crazy. Story for another day.
But it was like, I haven't had a 626
number text me in so long.
And I thought it was you and I got excited to open it.
And I was like, oh fuck.
That could not have been any different.
I mean, other than my mom, sister, and dad.
Oh, family time. I'll take that. I changed it to 310. I mean, other than like my mom, sister, and dad. Oh, family time.
Fam.
I'll take that.
Yeah, I changed it to 310.
I thought it would be cool when I graduated college.
Stop it.
Yeah.
Stay true to your roots.
Because then every time if you're not 310 and you're in L.A. and you give your number out,
then it's like, where's 626?
And you have to explain where you're from.
And then I'm like, it's like Pasadena.
And they're like, oh, what part?
I'm like, it's east of Pasadena.
It's called Azusa.
And then people don't know.
People don't know.
Anyway, so did you sign up to be on The Bachelorette or did someone nominate you?
I did not.
Someone nominated you?
No, I didn't get nominated either.
How did you just end up on it then?
I was recruited off the street.
Off the street?
Downtown LA.
Off the street.
Oh, you're not joking.
No, I'm dead serious.
I told everyone this.
They do that?
No one believes me.
They don't have enough people who want to sign up for that shit?
Yes, not.
I don't know.
But this was like a week and a half before it started filming.
No way.
I was walking back to work.
I just bought some headphones and I was walking back to work.
And this casting director like shouted me down.
And I thought she was, you know, someone that was crazy or something.
Yeah.
Because John Tonley has people who just scream.
Yeah.
So finally I turned around and she was like, where are you going?
Are you single?
And I was like, these are very invasive questions, ma'am.
Just ma'am.
But no, I answered them and she gave me her card and I vetted her out later that night
and the application process began.
And a week and a half later, boom.
Mm-hmm.
Mm-hmm.
That's so crazy.
Yeah.
I have so many friends who have been on the show.
I don't remember which one it was right now, but one of them, it was, like, less than,
like, a week turnover or something.
Yeah, it was a quick turnover, but I think that helped me in my process.
Yeah.
Like, going through it.
I didn't have enough time to, like, think about it or strategize or anything like that.
That's true.
So, had you watched the show before?
I saw most of JoJo's season.
Part of Nick's season. That's it. I watched it with my ex. She loved the show before? I saw most of JoJo's season. Part of Nick's season, that's it.
I watched it with my ex.
She loved the show.
I was indifferent.
Yeah.
That's a good word.
It's funny because I watched JoJo's season with my ex,
and then I end up becoming friends with some of them,
going on dates with some of them.
Yeah.
It was funny.
Yeah.
Anyway, so you did or didn't march back a season?
Sorry.
I saw the very, like, last episode, second to last episode, I think.
That was about it.
So you didn't know too much about her going into it?
Not anything, really.
Not much.
What did you think about her the first night?
The first night?
First impression when you got out of the limo and saw her?
Like I keep saying every single time, all of my nerves went away immediately the second I got out of the car.
Really?
I was so nervous going up to the car.
I still remember the limo was super steamy because there was four guys, me, Kristal, and Jason Colton.
We're on the limo, and it's hot.
And we were all nervous because we didn't know each other.
And we were trying to drink champagne, but we were still nervous.
And the limo was so steamy, you couldn't see outside of it.
Oh, shit.
So as soon as the door opened, all you see is this like, this, like, literally, like, this figure and just white.
She was, like, glowing.
Yeah.
And I was just like, oh, my God.
And then the door closed.
So then when I got out and she, like, I assumed that I was going to have to walk up to her before she would say anything to me.
Yeah.
And as soon as I got out of the car, she was already talking to me before I made the little, you know, the walk up to her.
So I was like, all right, she's a rad chick, so let's get after her.
What number getting out of the limo were you?
I think I was either...
I think I was third. Okay.
Yeah, I think... But even if you
weren't first, that anticipation
sitting in there, I feel like... Yeah, that was terrible.
What are they saying? Because you can't really see what they're doing
either. I'm pretty sure Kristen and Jason went
before me. Yeah. Then it was me, then Colton.
Gotcha. Yeah.
So... I gotta gotta say on the record
that was a great limo because three of the four guys were in the top five yeah i was just thinking
that jason colton yeah mm-hmm who do you think is going to be the next bachelor could it be you
i get this question all the time i know because everyone wants to know uh i think it's going to
be either jason or bl Blake in my personal opinion.
Not Colton?
I don't think so.
Why?
I don't think it's Colton.
I just think the fans will want to see Jason and Blake more.
You don't think they want to see a virgin?
I mean, Colton has a lot of fans.
Yeah.
No, I know.
He has a lot of followers.
I don't think he's lacking in that realm.
No, I'm just saying for the audience, that story,
they've never had a bachelor who's a virgin before. think it might be like a little bit of oversaturation because i feel like
jason and blake um where they got left off in their story it was kind of heartbroken and kind
of you know picking up the pieces and they're not in paradise so you know people are still going to
be rooting for their happiness and stuff but colton is still on the journey still active in
it so i think that's gonna that go against him. That's true.
Because Colton went to Paradise and the other guys did not.
Mm-hmm.
Mm-hmm.
I liked Blake.
I think for – Yeah, Blake's a sweetheart.
Out of the two of them, I think he would be a good – I mean –
For me, like, for me, all I really, like, all I really care about is I just want to be considered.
I, like, I see some articles and I'm, like, not even listed.
Yeah.
And that's kind of, like, that's kind of, like, a front to me a little bit.
Yeah.
Because I feel like my journey and Jason's journey was very, very similar.
Yeah.
We both kind of got broken up kind of in the same way.
We both took it the same way, very mature and, you know, upstanding.
You know, said great things about her and we're still, you know, cordial and friendly with her.
Yeah.
Mental law and everything.
And just like, I just would like to be considered.
Yeah.
And that's it.
No, I get that.
That's what I'm asking you about. I mean, you'd be my first pick.
You're the only person I even follow from that season.
Oh, two snaps for that.
Yeah.
No, but seriously, you were my pick from the beginning.
I was just selfishly hoping she sent you home so I could go out with you.
Oh.
And the whole, like, first African-American thing, like, that's great.
Yeah.
I love that.
But I also, I don't want, like, I don't know.
I'm starting to be more vocal as time goes on.
No, totally.
That's awesome.
Everyone's saying that.
That's awesome.
That's great.
And then everyone's also saying, like, oh, he'd be the most stylish bachelor.
But, like, I also want people to know, like, know like this is also about like me finding my person as well like i don't want to
be considered to be the next bachelor just because of my skin tone or because when i'm going to dress
right but also because people want me to be happy yeah i feel like that's the first thing yeah that
should be considered see that's so cool that you say that too because i feel like a lot of people
don't feel that way or a lot of guys do go on the show or even women for the wrong
reasons and you know nowadays with social media i mean your rent's paid when you post one photo with
certain products and stuff so it's like i feel like so many people nowadays are going on the show
for that reason just to gain followers be a social media influencer and then come back on paradise you get paid for that and
then it's like but the people who are on it for the right reasons exactly well like i said if i
could pick someone it would be you thank you so yeah everyone keeps like joking campaigning for
me to be the bachelorette but i was like the, the thing is, I wouldn't go on the bachelorette first. I just want to be the bachelorette.
I'm going to be one of them.
But I said what we should do, because I know so many people on it, I was like, we should
do like rookies versus champs, like they do on like the MTV challenges, where it's like
half guys who have already done it, and then half like fresh meat, like new guys.
Right?
I also heard-
I just, I keep putting it out there.
I'm just waiting for-
I also heard talks of a double Bachelor season.
Oh, like they did with Caitlyn and Britt?
I don't know too much history about it.
Okay, so they had Caitlyn Bristow.
She's amazing.
She also has a podcast here.
Her and Britt were on The Bachelor.
Yeah.
And they both were the Bachelorettes for the first episode.
And then all of the guys went and basically voted for which one they wanted, which is kind of fucked up.
But there I remember there was one guy who left the first night because he was like, I'm not here for Caitlin.
I'm here for Brit.
And because she didn't get picked.
And I think they ended up dating after that.
I remember seeing like.
Smooth move.
Yeah.
But it was like, you know, and also like, why why would Kaitlyn want guys staying who weren't there for her?
Yeah.
So I don't know if that way would work again because then you're voting and it's like.
No, what I heard was like a whole season and it'd be two bachelors.
Yeah.
And like the rose ceremony would be like split the roses or whatever.
Uh-huh.
And I heard there was like kind of like a small camp for like a me and Jason co-season.
Oh, my God.
Wait, that would –
That would –
ABC, are you listening?
That would break the ratings right there.
Yeah.
That's a great idea.
That'd break the ratings.
What if – yeah.
Like, okay, so it starts out with two bachelors.
And then what if it was two bachelors?
And then they did a bachelor and a bachelorette.
And then what if their contestants are hooking up with each other?
Oh, my goodness.
Oh.
You know? you know intrigue
i like this progress you're like different wings of the house and then it's like you're really here
for this person but then you see this one who's there you know you'd have to have like
canvassed photos of everyone like so you remember like who's with who and who's going home it'd be
like wings of the house like yeah the jason wing, the Will's wing. Yeah. That's where they stay or something like that.
Like whenever the girl is like, or the guy is like standing, they're like staring at
the photos and they're holding the roses and it's so dramatic and it's like, who am I going
to send home?
I don't know.
But if they had canvas people, it'd probably make it easier to narrow it down.
Yeah.
Because, you know, you have like your favorite photo of the guy or girl you're dating, the
ones you cherish and adore. You know what I'm talking about. So, okay, but here's the question. What's up? down because you know you have like your favorite photo of the guy or girl you're dating the ones
you cherish and adore you know what i'm talking about so okay but here's the question wouldn't
you love to see all of those photos that are like sitting on your phone or computer displayed
on your wall kind yeah i think so actually yeah so i moved into my new place in marina and
i was just like you know i got to take some stuff down from Vegas.
I need to put some new stuff on my walls
and just kind of wanted to make some
decorative prints from canvas people
and they don't cost a fortune.
So that's also awesome. People don't print pictures
anymore. No, and I was saying this the other
day. I was like, literally
what happens if one day the cloud
crashes? You're done. All of your
photos the last like i don't know
eight years since iphone's been a thing are gone yeah but like with canvas people you can transform
your photos in a beautiful unique museum quality canvases and they're easy to hang fabulous home

It's one thing that you probably don't know because you don't watch Vanderpump Rules,
thank God, but I'm known for having large canvas photos of myself hanging up in my apartment.
Of yourself?
It was from a wedding because I didn't like white walls, and you have to have cleared
artwork when you're filming.
I'm going to go back and do my research.
So I had all these giant canvas wedding photos printed out on the walls.
And then we got divorced.
So they all went off into storage.
I gave some to fans.
I sent one to the Museum of Broken Relationships.
The Museum of Broken Relationships?
Yeah, they requested one.
Oh, my goodness.
But I do get compliments on the one that I kept. So, like, whenever everyone's over, not only do they make fun of me, but they requested one. Oh, my goodness. But I do get compliments on the one that I kept.

And I was like, no, no, no.
Like, I'm not making you pay.
Like, it's like $240 or something to ship it to Washington.
I was like, we're going to figure out a better way to get it to you.
Don't worry.
Or I'll just pay for it.
I want someone to put my face on a canvas and put it in their closet.
So every time they go in the closet, they just get inspiration from my face to get dressed.
See?
Boom.
Like, I literally just changed the background on my
granted it was myself but it was no wait it was my podcast that's another fun game what is your
what is your current background actually wills do you remember when we hung out last week you
thought it was kendall jenner on my phone yeah that was a huge compliment i did you're like why
do you have a picture of kendall jenner on your phone i was like actually it's me but thank you
but it was that photo so you're right up there oh like actually it's me but thank you but it was
that photo so you're right up there oh yeah and it's my podcast photo and so when I got this show
here with podcast one it's always been a dream of mine I graduated with a degree in broadcast
journalism and so this is something that I'm really proud of that I actually like went to
school for and I'm doing so I had it on my phone not to be cocky but because i'm proud that i'm doing something i've been no but i've been made fun of so much and the other day i was
looking at it and i was like i don't like my hair in that photo anymore so now it's my dog
anyway um so do you think you really fell in love with Becca or after leaving did you feel it was more an infatuation thing?
No, I felt it in the moment.
I definitely think I fell in love with her.
I wouldn't have said I was falling in love with her if I wasn't falling in love with her.
Another guy did.
Oh, yeah.
Well, that's not me.
I don't say things unless I feel them or mean them.
No, I can tell that.
Yeah.
But like, dude, your reactions at the men tell all
i i know you reposted my story i was dying i rewound it and watched it so many times you
had the perfect part of my story because it was like what was his name jean jean blanc
yes the foot stomp because i didn't i mean I've never really watched like women to all men to all, so I didn't really know what to expect.
And then like as soon as we sat down, like everyone's just going after each other.
And there were some good jokes and some good comebacks.
So I was just being my normal self and not really entering it.
Yeah.
Enjoying it, you know, the atmosphere.
Well, and then it was like part of it was bleeped.
So I was like, wait, I knew it was like part of it was bleeped so i was like wait i knew it was
something about like colton being a virgin but i was like what did he say exactly and it was like
colton shot at john blanc and john blanc came back really really hard and it was it was a really good
comeback like you can love colton all day long but it was like i mean if you can dish it you
better be able to take it the way i see it if you're gonna come with someone like if they, like, if they're going to come back at you, you just got to take it, man.
That's how it is.
That's how it was growing up in Pasadena.
High school, I had so many friends who would make fun of each other.
And, like, if you're going to start it.
Yeah.
I don't start it because I don't think, like, I just, I don't know.
I'm just not, I don't know.
I'm not a mean-spirited person.
Yeah.
I don't know.
I don't know.
It was even funnier because you were sitting next to Colton.
Yeah. I don't know. It was even funnier because you were sitting next to Colton. Yeah.
I was like.
Someone else pointed out, I think Colton was talking to Jordan and Colton kept pointing
at Jordan, but his hand was like directly in my face, like as close as the microphone
was to my face.
Yeah.
And I kind of like swatted his hand out of my way a couple of times.
Cause like, man, get your hand out of my face.
Like it's fine to talk, but I'm just here, you know, chilling in my boots and like your
hands in my face like for like 20 seconds. Like can't handle it oh that was great what did he say you're acting like a
but you've never been inside one something yeah something like that no i said you you're
calling me that but you don't know what it's like to be inside or something like that yeah
oh that was good oh my boys Speaking of Jordan
What are your thoughts on this kid?
I like Jordan a lot
Do you?
Yes
Okay because I've only met him twice
I like Jordan a lot
So you and I followed each other on Instagram
So when I saw you at Pump that night
It was like I know you, you know me
It wasn't like it
That was so random
Yes
Well not for me because like we film at Sir
And that's where our show – you don't know this.
No.
I didn't know where it was.
But it was random for me to see all of you guys, like, after the mental at Pump.
Yeah.
I'm there, like, four nights a week because we film between Sir, Pump, Tom Tom.
It's, like, that whole block of West Hollywood.
Yeah.
Lisa Vanderpump, my boss, basically owns the whole block.
Yeah.
So she has three restaurants right there.
Yeah.
They all wanted to go to the Abbey and I tried to tell them
what the Abbey was. And that also blows my mind.
I was like, if you guys want to go to the Abbey, that's fine.
So a group of straight men
dressed in suits decide they want to go to
the world's largest gay bar. Yeah, they're all not
from here. So they're like, let's go to the Abbey.
The Abbey is dope. Don't get me wrong. I love the Abbey.
I was just trying to tell them. I was like,
I just want you to know when you get there.
I don't think it's what you're expecting, but we can go.
And that's why we were there.
So, yeah.
And then you ended up at like Doheny Room or something.
So you're like, too many guys in thongs shaking their asses.
No, we never went inside the Abbey.
We were just in pop.
Oh, okay.
We were just in pop.
So, yeah.
So I saw you.
I wouldn't have just like walked over and introduced myself to a group of strangers
who I don't know.
But I saw you and then I saw Jordan.
I was like, oh, because Jordan and Robbie are friends.
I know you and Robbie haven't met in person yet, but like you texted.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So Robbie was saying that he wanted to do my podcast again with Jordan.
And I was like, oh, cool.
So I see him and then I see you.
And I was like, all right.
Like, I mean, I think based on the edit I've seen, like, I'm just douchebag.
Like, I'm just like.
From Jordan?
Yeah.
But I thought the same thing about Robbie.
And he's one of my closest friends now.
Jordan just, he just lives in the moment.
But that's the thing.
The more, like, in the beginning, I was just like, oh, God, this guy thinks he's just like.
Early on, no one liked him.
No.
We all thought he was a plant.
Yeah.
We thought him and David were plants.
And we were like, he has to be a character.
But you hang out with him outside of the show, outside of being on camera, and he's the exact
same.
It's muted.
It's diluted some, but it's still the same exact person.
But now, I think he's hilarious.
He says funny shit.
The season wouldn't have been the same without his stupid liners.
As annoying as they were, and as much as I rolled my eyes watching them.
He allowed me to be quiet.
This guy.
So that's good.
But like I remember there was one part where he's like, I'm just going to be in the kitchen just like cooking my eggs.
And I'm not even going to look at anyone.
And I'm just going to be.
But it's like that's like obnoxious but also funny.
It's a reality show.
It's definitely entertaining.
You need the entertaining people.
No. But the night at pump i was
like kind of excited to meet him so i was like oh him and robbie are friends like he might do my
podcast and i go up and introduce myself and he was like hi like who are you and i was like oh
my friend robbie's like you yeah he's a lot more and then you were right there so i just started
talking to you and then the next night i run into him at the maxim party and he comes up he's like
hey what's up?
He's like, good to see you again.
I met you last night.
And I was like, I see you've also found your personality because it wasn't with you at Pump last night.
He can be quiet around people he doesn't know.
Yeah.
So what do you think about Garrett now that we all know who she's chosen and engaged to?
Do you guys get along in the house?
Yes, very well, actually.
And Garrett was one of my closest friends in the house, actually.
Yeah.
Yeah.
He's a sweet guy.
Yeah.
Nothing bad to say?
No.
That's awesome.
I mean, from my personal reactions, I don't have a bad thing to say about Garrett.
I know there was some controversy around some, like, comments that he liked and things like that.
But from, again, it's an edited show.
I know better than anyone not to judge people off an edit you see.
But I felt like he was amazing.
I feel like you can ask anyone in the house.
He was one of the nicest guys.
From day one.
From the beginning.
He was always goofy.
He was just joking around with everyone.
He was sweet to everyone.
Cast, crew, producers, everyone.
Yeah.
So, you know, when this other stuff came out, like, no one really could understand it.
Right.
Yeah.
It just seemed like a total, like exactly yeah yeah i always i like to find out who wins at the beginning because i
know who to kind of keep my eye on cheating whatever i don't care i admit it i reality
steve puts it out there for everyone every year anyways but information we work with a lot of the
same like producers or camera audio people as y'all show so i always find out
so i knew it was garrett night one i was like oh my god this cheesy guy from reno with his like
intro video but it just it just works with becca totally and like as the weeks went on like he
became my fave for her you were my fave for me but um i think it was okay i remember this moment you were
like sitting down talking to becca and then chris had like already talked to her that night and he
like comes over and you were so polite and like let him have his like two minutes or whatever he
asked for and like when you came back i was like this guy is so dope like how is he keeping his
chill because you're like in the most respectful way chris but i've i've worked with kids before in my life and it's kind of the same it's kind of the
same deal like you have to put your foot down and you need to remain that way and they'll get the
hint yeah and so like you know i gave him his space i gave him a wide berth but then i came back
and you know i told him exactly what i was going to do and i did it and when he didn't respect that
and won even more time i was like it's it's not going to happen. No, but
I could also read Becca's like, you know,
body language and reaction and that
empowered me to continue. If Becca was like,
oh no, let me just talk to Chris, I would have backed off more.
But you could tell Becca didn't want to talk to Chris either
and she felt awkward. So I was just like, nah.
And I mean, you know,
it's like, it's a process. It's not like she just sends
10 guys home because she feels like she doesn't have
a connection with 10 of them. It's like, well, maybe something builds a little later. So it's like it's a process. It's not like she just sends 10 guys home because she feels like she doesn't have a connection with 10 of them. It's like, well, maybe something builds a little later.
So it's like – but you could tell like she knew like he wasn't going to be at like hometown time.
So why waste your time when you only have a limited amount of time with these guys?
And for me personally, that was a make or break night for me personally.
So I was already feeling the pressure even though i probably shouldn't have but i just i didn't i felt like i didn't have a really good week singing at wayne with
wayne newton was like one of my biggest fears yeah just doing that i was just awkward so that
little um the cocktail hour before the roast ceremony that i was like i'm putting on my best
suit i need to talk to her i need to get some things home i'm really glad we had that talk
because that's when we had kind of a discovery between us and made me begin to fall in love with her and that's it was such a good moment like it like i strongly remember that when
you like came back and you're like no you've had your time like just so calm and respectful i guess
supposedly like on the history of the show people don't do that or something like that no no that
was like a moment that stood out because i was like, oh, shit. Look at this guy. Who is he? Follow on Instagram.
You got to fight for what you love.
Yeah.
But seeing you guys.
So you probably don't know this either, but I just headlined a show in Vegas for five months.
Like I was like a headliner in Vegas at the Paris Hotel.
It was an off-Broadway comedy.
I had a dance and it was a scripted show that I did for five months in Vegas.
What do you not do?
I do a lot.
I'm learning as we go.
You're finding out.
But when I was watching that episode, I had done an event with Wayne Newton and his wife.
And I got like the pleasure of meeting him.
And it was just like so cool because I'm like, oh, my God, this guy is an icon.
And then like watching the show there, I was like, I was just there.
It was for me. Some of the guys were just like, who? And as soon as the show there, I was like, I was just there. It was – for me, it was just – it was really cool.
Some of the guys were just like, who?
And as soon as we pulled up, I was like –
What?
I was like, Vegas Vacation, Dr. Shane.
Like, yeah.
I can't wait to tell my parents about this.
Like that's all I could think the whole day I was there.
I was like, they are going to freak out.
That's so cool.
Yeah.
Apparently – I don't know if Wayne himself watches it, but I know his wife and her sister
are like Vanderpump Rules fans.
I'm like, that is so cool.
That's awesome.
It's so crazy.
Because, I mean, I'm just me, a girl who worked at a restaurant as a server and then became a part of this huge reality show that has just been.
You know who I met last week who knew who I was and I kind of freaked out a little bit?
Who?
So this was kind of like my lifeblood growing up.
It's what I was raised on is the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air.
Yes.
Dude, me too.
I could say the whole thing.
I saw Will's mom, the actress who played Will's mom.
I'm not sure of her name.
And the actress who played Aunt Helen.
I saw both of them.
I didn't get the chance to talk to them.
But I also saw Alfonso Ribeiro.
Yes, I love him.
I grew up in L.A.
I don't really go up to celebrities like that.
Yeah, I'm the same way.
I just kind of chill.
But I was like, I don't know if I'm ever gonna have another chance to see this guy yeah I
just want to tell him how much an influence he had on my life yeah I think
he was very underrated in that show I don't think that show would have been
nearly as successful no way him and I wanted to tell him such and he was
amazing and he knew who I was his wife watches that's so cool Alfonso I love
you oh my god I love that I loved watching him on Dancing with the Stars, too.
I was like, do the Carlton.
He's so good.
Yeah, he won.
That's how he got his start, I believe.
He impersonated Michael Jackson in a commercial.
Oh my god, I loved that show.
90s sitcoms, they just don't do TV like they used to anymore.
I mean, there are some great shows, don't get me wrong.
I feel like Netflix has totally taken over the whole game.
Oh, of course.
But those cheesy 90s shows, they were so good.
Family Matters.
Mm-hmm.
I met Jaleel White.
Yeah, I didn't want to say his name wrong.
But we have mutual friends.
Yeah, I saw him at a pool party two weeks ago.
And I was just like, I'm hanging out with Urkel.
He went to high school in Pasadena for at least a year.
Really?
He went to high school with my brother for one year.
Crazy.
They did not like each other.
Small world.
So would you say that you made more friends on the show than you did enemies?
Because you seem like.
Oh, absolutely.
I didn't make one enemy on the show at all.
Yeah.
To my knowledge.
But what about Bachelor in Paradise? I didn't. Not long on the show at all. But what about Bachelor in Paradise?
Not long enough there to make any enemies.
I wouldn't consider enemies on my front.
I think they might feel a little weird or awkward because of the way I was treated and handled.
But I don't consider them enemies.
I just consider them not the greatest people.
Can you say who?
Well, me and Bibby just have a checkered it's i want to say checkered past but it's only been like a month so it's right it's weird like
it's like but i mean she's one of the you could have stayed there longer yeah if she kind of
gave you the rose she kind of blew it i mean she was like one of the closest people i got to
know as soon as we started and then it just all kind of blew up on my face because of her action.
Did you meet her in Paradise?
Yeah, that was the first time I ever met her.
That's why we hit it off so well.
That's why I was so surprised.
Had you watched her on Winter Games or The Bachelor?
Oh, yeah.
I saw her briefly on Winter Games.
Yeah.
She was a little firecracker, that one.
She definitely is.
I did like her, but we don't like her anymore.
I don't dislike her.
I just think she just had a small moment of, you know,
madness slash insecurity or something and didn't choose me when she was
confused and we could have discussed it for the whole next week.
Yeah.
So how was that for you going so far on The Bachelorette and then going
home in the beginning of Bachelor in Paradise?
I said it again.
I'm not necessarily upsetting.
I just want people to be awake to the fact that like other than colton i was the most recently removed
from that whole world yeah i'm putting a lot of emotion and we're six uh fifth fifth yeah a lot
of emotion everything into it you know i was like yeah i don't know it's just a really quick
turnaround and i'm back in paradise and you know I was trying to put my heart out there but
I'm also the kind of guy I'm not going to try to make out with four girls the first day I get there
right I'd rather be cool with everyone yeah make one decision and stick with it yeah and I guess
some of the girls thought I was friend zoning some of them I don't know I don't think that was the
case because there was a lot of girls out there I was attracted to yeah and me and baby were just
kind of friends kind of had a rose agreement but there's another girl Astrid who I was attracted to. Yeah. And me and Bibby were just kind of friends, kind of had a rose agreement. But then there was another girl, Astrid, who I was really into.
And I went in for the kill.
Well, not the kill.
I went in for the kiss and got quite a few.
And just at the end of the day, she didn't pick me, which, I mean, that's fair play to her.
But it just kind of sucked when you, like, put yourself out there.
Yeah.
Totally.
I already did that with Becca.
So I put myself out there with Becca.
I put myself out there with Astrid.
Put my trust in Bibiana. So like once this
airs like I think I have the best case
for being the next Bachelor. So
I can
just say. Yeah. I mean
I agree with you.
I think you would be my pick.
I've said that multiple times.
Keep saying it. I'm going to keep saying it.
But I've said that multiple times. Keep saying it. I'm going to keep saying it. But see, now you made me lose my train of thought.
Anyway, would you like consider going back on Bachelor in Paradise again if they didn't ask you to be the actual Bachelor?
You know, I've already kind of thought about that.
I'm really not sure.
I don't know.
Yeah. Just because. because i mean it would
probably be a year from now right yeah i love it and i have fun with it and it would obviously
would depend on multiple factors i would never say no to it but i'm not sure yeah um because i
want to feel like i have the opportunity to find a girlfriend fiance anything and i don't feel like
i got the opportunity in paradise.
Yeah.
And I don't want to put myself –
Well, no, you went home way too quick.
Yeah, I don't want to put myself out there again like that just to get let down.
I get let down enough off camera.
I don't need to get let down on camera as well.
You sound like me.
I'm just over it.
I've been through two very public breakups.
One was a divorce, and then the other was just a breakup on national television.
We have a lot to talk about television i have no idea your life
at all well see when we meet up at like 10 p.m and start doing tequila shots and then go out
dancing we don't really get to know each other that well so tonight um so was it bibiana or
astrid or which girl like first caught your attention out of any girl who was in paradise if you're like i'm gonna be so honest right now on podcast one um the first girl i had my eye on
was kindle oh okay absolutely kindle quirky one but we had a talk kind of early on and we just
there was a miscommunication and i was just completely turned off of her um and we actually
talked about it recently like she thought one thing i thought one thing neither was correct yeah so that's just kind of we just kind of parted ways and then after
that i kicked it hard with bibiana i was really into tia too but i knew i knew colton was coming
eventually so i was like staying away did he come like was it the second day second day okay me and
tia got along really well first day but i was just like there's no way like there was even talks
before she picked chris yeah a lot of people thought it was gonna be me or Joe to go on the day
I was just like I don't know I feel about that
I'd love to go on a date with Tia at the same time like I just know there's this thing coming in
Yeah, and like you knew Colton was gonna come there not gonna be Tia in paradise without Colton
It's a reality show. But Astra dropped the whole her cultural background and like she could speak another language and that's like a huge turn on
Quality I want to have in my wife. So yeah, she told me that I really wanted to get to know her more ground and like she could speak another language and that's like a huge turn on like quality i want
to have in my wife so yeah she told me that i really wanted to get to know her more do you guys
still hang out i haven't spoken to her since i left paradise it's awkward for me i mean yeah i
mean like i'm i'm cool with everyone but me personally like if she reaches out i'll be down
to talk to her i'm cool with her whatever but it's awkward for me to put like my whole self out there
yeah kiss you and let you know exactly how i feel and then not get picked by you like it's awkward for me to put, like, my whole self out there and, like, kiss you and let you know exactly how I feel and then not get picked by you.
Like, it's awkward for me to just, like, reach out again.
You know what I'm saying?
Yeah.
Oh, no, I know.
I don't have any, like, ill will or anything towards her.
Right.
But it's just awkward for me to talk to people like that.
Yeah.
My ex-boyfriend broke up with me and then wanted to stay friends.
And then after a while, I was like, you know what?
Yeah, this doesn't work for me anymore.
Because now, like, no matter, I feel like no matter what I would say or do yeah hang out with her i feel like she'd always think like you know what i'm saying
i don't know just i don't know no i get that astrid love you though yeah and um you know what
astrid might like i'm just gonna i'm gonna speak to the girls for a second speak to them yeah so

I like nude.
I like oxblood.
Wait, is that like a brand?
It's like eggplant color, like aubergine, like that color.
It's like kind of burgundy.
Oh, I think I have some of that at home.
It's kind of edgy and I don't know, it's kind of frisky for a night out on the town.
Frisky?
Are we going out tonight or staying in?
I don't know.
We'll figure it out later.
I might have to bust out my eggplant lips.
Eggplant.
I love that that's the reference.
You know like the eggplant emoji?
It looks like that but it's on your lips.
I said the eggplant color.
Well, of course.
I'm going to think eggplant emoji.
It's purple.
Raunchy. Anyway, okay. That'll going to think eggplant emoji. It's purple. Raunchy.
Anyway, okay.
That'll look good on my lips.
I do want to talk for a minute about what looks good on you because I think you have been the most fashionable contestant out of the men who I've seen.
You have, like, a really good style.
Where do you get your inspiration from?
Man. who I've seen, you have like a really good style. Where do you get your inspiration from? Man, I think genetically I get it from my dad.
But I mean, you know, the errors are so different.
I don't really feel like I take any like hints from him or anything like that.
I think it's just been a different process.
Like in high school, I wore 3XL tall tees and like all kinds of like wild, crazy stuff
that I would never wear now.
I think now it's just kind of, you know, I see things in media
and I kind of take pieces from here and there and think about it.
I go to thrift stores a lot, and if I see something I like, I'll wear it.
I'm just going to go out and say it.
So I was at a festival this weekend, and on Saturday I wore an orange trench coat,
like a white orange trench coat, and it is not made for men.
I don't care.
It's huge.
It fits me perfectly.
You would never know.
And I wore it, and everyone loved it.
So it's just, I don't know, it's just whatever you feel comfortable in and what you like,
and just be funky and fun with it, and that's, you know.
I like that.
Did a lot of people recognize you at the festival?
A lot, yeah.
Has that been weird for you?
Not really. I i'm always you know
happy to see people who support me and take pictures uh it's just the only time it feels
a little weird is like when i'm in a really crowded space and i feel like i can't i can't
move yeah that's kind of weird but other than that i really don't care like everyone everyone
who comes up to me is like can i take a picture i'm like automatically yeah absolutely that makes
people's days i know we had talked about that a little bit because when we were out you know people had come up to us but i love that when someone is just
genuine and doesn't mind and it's not like oh you're interrupting my night out i'm not that
kind of person no and i'm not either and that's like i always like encourage people i'm like if
you see me out come up to me like maybe if i'm eating wait till i'm done that's the only thing
because like i don't take a picture and i have like broccoli in my teeth because i love broccoli exactly i'm
like the king of like i'm so weirdly respectful so like i was getting off a flight and the flight
attendant said she was rooting for me and she wanted to take a picture with me but everyone
behind me was trying she wanted to take a picture with me yeah everyone behind me wanted to get off
the plane yeah we went off like off to the right behind the like the uh pilot whatever cabin and
we just took a picture there and then I went on with my day.
I would do the exact same thing.
So whenever I'm walking in a crowd and someone's like, can we take a picture?
I'm like, yeah, but let's do it over there.
So we're out of the way.
That's happened on a couple of flights where I was maybe in a window seat or whatever and they didn't necessarily ask me for a photo.
But we're like, can we get you some free wine or anything?
We love you on the show, blah, blah, blah.
And at the end of it, I had tweeted.
One time was on Delta tweeted one time was on
delta and one time was on southwest and when you have a verified account on twitter instagram
they usually get back to you right away and so i had the flight number i had the flight
attendance name and i was just like best customer service ever because it's like
people usually tweet about the negative things like my flight's delayed delta sucks at this
the foods blah blah blah and i was like you know it would be nice for them to get like a nice tweet about a
really nice woman.
I didn't say that she gave me free wine, but Barbara, thank you.
Barbara's fine.
You know what I've also noticed recently is that people have started to like film or take
pictures for me from afar.
Yep.
Get used to it.
And I just want to tell those people right now, like, if that's what you want to do,
fine.
But if that's you being shy and not wanting to come up to me, just come up to me and take the picture.
I'm not going to be, like, I'm not going to turn you away.
No, I'll call people out for that.
Like, and I'm like, I'm not trying to make you feel dumb, but do you want to do a selfie or do you want to paparazzi me?
Either is cool.
Yeah.
Someone took a picture of me, like, just eating food.
Oh, my God.
All the time.
Anytime.
I know, like, I shouldn't go to Sir if I don't want to be photographed while I'm eating.
But the food's so good that I don't care.
But I'm like, I feel like every time I go, I'm like, no, they're not going to take pictures.
No, I'm like mid-pasta going in my mouth, slurping up my noodle.
And it's like, ch-ch-ch-ch.
And I'm like, or if you're going to, like, video me and you want to do it low-key, maybe don't have the flash on.
Yeah.
But, like, I will literally take a picture with every single person in a
place if I can it's just obvious to me cuz I'm fairly tall so I see yeah I see
the cameras like going up above their heads like yeah did you ever see
yourself doing reality TV or this just like randomly happen on the street
absolutely not never thought I would ever be in this scenario situation but I
love it yeah happy to be here um I mean
growing up here you know people are always like oh you want to be on tv I was like if I want to
be on tv I would have at least tried to be on tv right now see I did and I was I'm almost 30 years
old like I would have tried to but no I'm glad I did it like I have zero regrets absolutely
it's fun for me I enjoy it yeah could you see yourself doing like a different type of show? Like maybe like a Celebrity Big Brother or like Amazing Race, Survivor?
Personally, I feel like I'm – people won't believe this because I'm so like quiet in my manner.
But I feel like I'm more suited for like television or movies.
Because on The Bachelorette, you saw me being myself.
Yeah.
But when I play characters characters i'm completely different
yeah i'm louder and so have you done acting yes i grew up doing acting i did plays in middle school
i did plays and i was a drama major for two years in college that's awesome i did plays in college i
love doing that yeah but i'm just more i'm more like you know i'm different playing character on
the bachelorette yeah newsfl, I was not playing a character.
I was being myself.
Totally.
That was the one thing with me when I was – because I've been acting ever since I was a kid as well.
High school, college, plays, all of that.
But then I got really into film and TV and then eventually reality.
And then I got this opportunity for Vegas.
I put myself on tape.
I auditioned.
I got the job. I was on every billboard jumbotron elevator.
Like, it was crazy.
There were 100 cab tops all over the city.
Like, it was such a surreal experience that I'm still like, wait, I did that?
That's cool.
So cool.
That's cool.
So, but while I was doing this, I'm playing a nerdy professor type who's, like, very shy about sex. And anyone who knows me knows I'm playing a nerdy professor type who's like very shy about sex and
anyone who knows me doesn't not so it was fun because I got to play this role
but then when one of my friends his name is Tom Sandoval he's on the show with me
we've worked together been friends for like 10 years he came and saw the show
and loved it he was like that was amazing he goes but the only thing is
because it's weird because I'm watching you act and i was like no shit sherlock i'm playing robin brown professor at whatever university
and he was like yeah but you have to understand like people now know you more from reality tv
than from doing acting like i had a bunch of guest starring roles and whatnot on different shows
and he was like so maybe try and bring a little more of yourself into the character because people
are coming to see you not robin brown the character you're playing interesting and i took this
information to the director we had a nice dinner in new york and i was like all right i was like
i know you have your notes but i flew fucking 3 000 miles you're gonna listen to mine first
and i went over everything with him and he loved it and he was like you know what try it if it
doesn't work then we go back to the original way and so any night someone would yell out my name like from
the audience like oh my god sheena we love you i'm like who she oh my god that girl in vanderbilt
rules she's so annoying like i get that all the time but i would like i would acknowledge it make
fun of myself but then it's like the people love that because they're not there to see me play a
role so it was like for me just getting back into acting because I've done reality for so long.
It was such a good transition because I got to bring myself into the character.
And since I got back, I just signed back up, signed with my theatrical agency.
So I'm like back with them.
I just got headshots.
They sent me a few scripts and I'm like, no, now I want to play something like different.
What do you want to play?
Ideal role go.
I really want to be murdered in a horror film.
Okay.
Like I just want to like, I want to like be pushed.
Like I want to have those like scary moments where I'm screaming or I'm crying or I'm being
chased through the woods.
Like I just like, I've done Disney, Nickelodeon, CW, like Entourage.
Like I've done a bunch of things that are me being me, but with a character name.
Yeah, yeah.
And I kind of want to stretch myself now.
So, I got a couple scripts sent to me.
Just got my headshots retouched and going to get back into it.
So, I don't know.
Maybe, like, you and I could be in a movie together or something.
Sign me up.
Yeah.
Is it weird watching the show back?
Yes.
In a word, yes.
It's really weird.
I mean, this all happened a while ago. And just to live in the past and relive it, it's interesting.
Yeah.
But it's also kind of heart-wrenching.
Yeah.
And it's like bringing up old, you know, it's like reopening old wounds.
Yeah.
And you don't really necessarily want to see that.
I got divorced on national television, so I feel it.
Tonight's not going to be fun. Yeah, and then watching that six months later, you're like, but tonight we're going to have fun.
I'm inviting a few friends over.
We're going to have some drinks.
It's going to be cool.
It's going to be fun.
In a room full of people.
I don't know.
I'll watch me be upset and probably cry.
No, you met my girlfriends the other night when we went out.
Do you remember when we went out dancing?
Yeah, I remember.
In Monca?
Yeah.
