- 0:00Speaker 1: This is kiss breakfast yeah celebrity gossip what's going on so.

- 0:08Speaker 2: ten thousand dollars after falling in love with a man
- 0:11Speaker 2: that she thought was john bon.
- 0:12Speaker 3: Jovi oh no not again 55 year old leslie pickett
- 0:17Speaker 3: has been a massive fan of bon jovi since she
- 0:20Speaker 3: was young and then she got a dm from an
- 0:22Speaker 3: instagram account claiming to be Jon Bon Jovi.
- 0:26Speaker 2: So she thought all her dreams were coming true. They
- 0:28Speaker 2: sparked up conversation. She did say she had doubts, but
- 0:31Speaker 2: she kept engaging in conversation, obviously, because she's such a
- 0:34Speaker 2: big fan. And then they went to the extent, these people,
- 0:37Speaker 2: of sending AR-generated videos.
- 0:39Speaker 4: Aww.
- 0:39Speaker 2: And she's obviously fallen for those because he'd even address
- 0:43Speaker 2: her by name.
- 0:44Speaker 5: He'd call her.
- 0:45Speaker 2: Leslie and everything. So she said, it was like talking
- 0:47Speaker 2: to my best friend. He said he wanted to meet
- 0:49Speaker 2: someone normal. Like he didn't want to date a celebrity.
- 0:52Speaker 2: He wanted someone like Leslie.
- 0:53Speaker 3: How did Jon Bon Jovi find Leslie?
- 0:55Speaker 5: Well, he didn't want someone with fame and money and things.
- 0:58Speaker 2: So she said they spoke about everyday life. Like she said,
- 1:01Speaker 2: she keeps saying she had her doubts, but she was
- 1:04Speaker 2: just really hopeful and praying that it was him. So
- 1:06Speaker 2: over this 10 month period, internet relationship they had. She
- 1:10Speaker 2: sent him money via the cash app.
- 1:12Speaker 3: Why would Jon Bon Jovi need money?
- 1:14Speaker 5: I don't know. His funds were held up via cash app, PayPal, Venmo,
- 1:18Speaker 5: and even cryptocurrency.
- 1:20Speaker 1: Oh, God.
- 1:20Speaker 5: That makes so much sense, yeah. Yeah. So this actually
- 1:24Speaker 5: nearly cost her a home, the poor doll. So have
- 1:26Speaker 5: a listen.
- 1:27Speaker 2: It's a little long, but she kind of goes into
- 1:29Speaker 2: the details of this relationship that she had with Jon
- 1:32Speaker 2: Bon Jovi.
- 1:34Speaker 4: Four or five months into it I started asking him
- 1:37Speaker 4: are we ever going to meet do people like me
- 1:40Speaker 4: get to meet people like you and he was like
- 1:44Speaker 4: yes you can do a meet and greet and he
- 1:46Speaker 4: gave me an email to management and said get the
- 1:50Speaker 4: cost from them and they came back with some kind
- 1:53Speaker 4: of just astronomical cost and I was like yeah we
- 1:56Speaker 4: might as well end this right now buddy because I
- 1:59Speaker 4: don't have that kind of money to meet.
- 2:01Speaker 5: What were they asking you for?
- 2:03Speaker 4: $ 20, 000. For a meet and greet.
- 2:05Speaker 5: And these meet and greets do happen, right?
- 2:07Speaker 6: Yes.
- 2:07Speaker 5: Celebrities actually do these meet and greets and charge a
- 2:10Speaker 5: ridiculous amount of money for people to meet them for
- 2:12Speaker 5: just a hello and a selfie.
- 2:13Speaker 4: The FBI agent that got involved when I started reporting it,
- 2:18Speaker 4: he was like, yeah, $ 12, 000 is a drop in a bucket.
- 2:21Speaker 4: I've seen them for $ 200, 000 and that's really.
- 2:24Speaker 4: More or less why the FBI didn't want to get involved,
- 2:27Speaker 4: because it was small change.
- 2:29Speaker 1: I feel bad.
- 2:30Speaker 5: You feel really sad for these people.
- 2:32Speaker 7: They're just getting completely and utterly taken advantage of.
- 2:35Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean, you're right. Why would he need money?
- 2:37Speaker 1: She didn't really think of it. But, you know, even
- 2:39Speaker 1: these calls I keep getting, I think they've done the
- 2:40Speaker 1: update now, where it tells you, oh, warning, potential fraud.
- 2:44Speaker 1: See that?
- 2:46Speaker 7: Oh, yeah.
- 2:46Speaker 1: Yeah, so I'm getting that now.
- 2:47Speaker 5: Is this with the new update?
- 2:49Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 2:49Speaker 5: I tried to send my.
- 2:51Speaker 2: Fettuccine Carbonara to a Facebook group chat the other day
- 2:54Speaker 2: and it wouldn't let me because it said it was nudity.
- 2:56Speaker 1: What? You can turn that off.
- 2:59Speaker 6: Yeah, I know.
- 3:00Speaker 2: It was sexual because it was so good, but it
- 3:02Speaker 2: was like, yeah, I had to fully go into the
- 3:04Speaker 2: settings and find the way to turn it off because
- 3:07Speaker 2: this new thing, it's not always a fail safe, but
- 3:11Speaker 2: that's a good update to have, the fraud potential.
- 3:13Speaker 1: Potential fraud. But people and older people typically... They fall
- 3:17Speaker 1: for it. And like you're just a piece of crap
- 3:19Speaker 1: if you're ripping someone off like that.
- 3:21Speaker 2: I always feel bad that my mum would fall for,
- 3:23Speaker 2: not those because she's not an idiot, but the one like, hey, mum,
- 3:27Speaker 2: I lost my phone. Can you call me on this number?
- 3:29Speaker 2: Because mum would worry so much about us. So it
- 3:32Speaker 2: is really sad.
- 3:33Speaker 1: You're a scumbag if you're sitting there doing it.
- 3:35Speaker 2: At some point you can't keep up with technology as
- 3:37Speaker 2: you age, even as much as you try.
- 3:39Speaker 7: Yep. I always thought I was getting scammed by MyGov going,
- 3:43Speaker 7: you owe this amount of money.
- 3:44Speaker 5: And I was like, oh, it's obviously scam.
- 3:45Speaker 7: And then my accountant was like, Amy, you're now incurring fees.
- 3:49Speaker 5: And I was like, wait, that's real? Yeah, good.
- 3:53Speaker 2: Hey, Sylvester Stallone, you'd know him as Rocky, but he's
- 3:55Speaker 2: also in that show Tulsa King, which I've seen.
- 3:57Speaker 5: It's actually really, really good. And he stars alongside his
- 4:00Speaker 5: daughter Scarlett.
- 4:01Speaker 2: Now, people are calling Scarlett a nepo baby because she
- 4:05Speaker 2: got cast in the show probably only because she's Sylvester
- 4:07Speaker 2: Stallone's daughter. And this is what he has to say
- 4:10Speaker 2: in response to those people.
- 4:13Speaker 6: Nepotism is terrible. I said, oh, please, if you're not
- 4:17Speaker 6: a good parent and you haven't performed a little nepotism,
- 4:20Speaker 6: then obviously you don't care about your kids. Because they
- 4:23Speaker 6: come first. Of course it's nepotism, you idiot. That's why
- 4:27Speaker 6: we're parents. We want the best for our children.
- 4:31Speaker 1: And Hollywood's full of it. There's heaps of children of
- 4:34Speaker 1: big stars that are appearing in stuff.
- 4:36Speaker 5: I get that.
- 4:36Speaker 7: You see a lot of kids who follow in the
- 4:39Speaker 7: footsteps of their parents and stuff.
- 4:40Speaker 5: So, I mean... Maybe she just always wanted to be
- 4:44Speaker 5: an actress.
- 4:44Speaker 1: Yeah, and it is a step in, obviously, if your
- 4:47Speaker 1: dad's connected. Of course, yeah. Yeah, it's more what you
- 4:49Speaker 1: do with it. It's the nepo babies that are then.
- 4:51Speaker 7: That do nothing and just ride on the coattails of
- 4:54Speaker 7: their parents.
- 4:54Speaker 2: But also nepotism exists in so many industries, like petradies
- 4:58Speaker 2: who inherit their dad's carpentry business.
- 5:00Speaker 7: I know, right?
- 5:01Speaker 1: That's the same thing.
- 5:01Speaker 5: It's the exact same thing. Yeah, totally, yeah.
- 5:03Speaker 2: Also, Tom Brady is pretty much the envy of every
- 5:06Speaker 2: man on the planet. Now, he was obviously married to
- 5:08Speaker 2: Gisele Bundchen for years. They were married for 18 years.
- 5:11Speaker 2: They got two kids together. He's always seen with very
- 5:14Speaker 2: hot women. And his latest, apparently, he has moved on
- 5:18Speaker 2: and in a relationship with Candice Swanepoel.
- 5:21Speaker 6: Oh, wow.
- 5:21Speaker 2: So he's gone from one Victoria's Secret model being Gisele
- 5:24Speaker 2: Bundchen to Candice Swanepoel, who's another Victoria's Secret model.
- 5:28Speaker 5: I wonder if it's because.
- 5:29Speaker 7: They're all really tall and leggy. Like, Tom Brady's really tall,
- 5:32Speaker 7: isn't he?
- 5:33Speaker 2: He'd be tall being an NFL player, but I don't
- 5:37Speaker 2: know because I look at him and it does nothing
- 5:39Speaker 2: for me.
- 5:40Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 5:40Speaker 5: I think he's one of the greatest.
- 5:43Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 5:43Speaker 5: Well, no, but he's not ugly. I think he's American hot.
- 5:47Speaker 2: Americans find that preppy kind of.
- 5:53Speaker 5: We like rough around the edges of Australia.
- 5:55Speaker 2: Australian women like a guy with a mullet and a
- 5:57Speaker 2: bit of a bow and tats and stuff.
- 5:59Speaker 3: You know.
- 6:00Speaker 7: What?
- 6:00Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 6:02Speaker 5: Australian women like guys with mullets.
- 6:03Speaker 3: I'm like, no.
- 6:04Speaker 2: Well, my partner's bald, but I'm just saying that's why
- 6:07Speaker 2: a lot of men here have mullets.
- 6:08Speaker 1: I know what you mean. The tattered look.
- 6:10Speaker 5: Yeah, a bit more manly. Whereas I feel like they're
- 6:13Speaker 5: quite pretty boys.
- 6:13Speaker 2: They're like the preppy lacrosse playing type.
- 6:16Speaker 1: Yeah, wearing like a bloody knitted thing around their shoulder.
- 6:20Speaker 6: Yes.
- 6:20Speaker 1: A bunch of princes.
- 6:21Speaker 5: Ralph Lauren, all that kind of stuff. Bunch of what?
- 6:24Speaker 5: I think you'd do better in America. Yeah, so do I.
- 6:28Speaker 1: I've done well here, though.
- 6:29Speaker 5: Have you?
- 6:30Speaker 1: Nines and tens.
- 6:31Speaker 4: Oh.
- 6:31Speaker 5: Who verifies that?
- 6:33Speaker 6: Me. Okay.
- 6:35Speaker 2: It's like a business that says best steaks in Sydney
- 6:39Speaker 2: and it's like, who said that?
- 6:40Speaker 1: Who said it? It's my Google review kind of thing. Yeah,
- 6:44Speaker 1: only nines and tens. Hey, call it. Why are you
- 6:48Speaker 1: saying Alana's not a 9 or 10?
- 6:49Speaker 5: No, we're not specifically commenting on Alana.
- 6:50Speaker 3: I'm not speaking about Alana at all.
- 6:53Speaker 5: I've seen some of the others.
- 6:55Speaker 6: I haven't.
- 6:55Speaker 1: They were at a time 9s and 10s.
- 6:57Speaker 6: Oh, yeah?
- 6:58Speaker 5: Before you dated them? But, like, what about their personalities?
- 7:02Speaker 5: Do they play a part? That doesn't matter to him, Amy. Please.
- 7:04Speaker 5: Come on. You shallow punts.
- 7:09Speaker 1: Word of the day.
- 7:09Speaker 7: Punts.
- 7:10Speaker 5: Punts and mutt.
- 7:12Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 7:14Speaker 5: No context.
- 7:14Speaker 1: That was used earlier, yeah.
