• 1:27
  Speaker 5: very very vocal about this. I was very vocal about
• 1:30
  Speaker 5: this because my job was to the floor at the words.
• 1:34
  Speaker 4: That were coming out of her bold mouth.
• 1:36
  Speaker 5: I couldn't believe some of the stuff she was saying.
• 1:40
  Speaker 5: And it is amazing to see how many people. I mean,
• 1:45
  Speaker 5: that was wildfire. People were outraged and it happened so fast,
• 1:53
  Speaker 5: and I'm proud of everybody for that because that was.
• 1:59
  Speaker 4: What are your thoughts, that's when you saw it?
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: No, so listen, just to recap the the audience, the
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: rain drop. So Monica and I are here to talk
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: about the firing of Jill Zarin, who posted a video
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: or her own Instagram immediately after Bad Bunnies Have Time
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: performance this past Sunday. In this rant, okay, she goes
• 2:24
  Speaker 2: on about how she felt that this was a political
• 2:29
  Speaker 2: statement that Bad Bunny was doing.
• 2:32
  Speaker 3: The performance was.
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: Done in Spanish, she didn't understand any of it. She
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: wondered where all the white people were. She said, is
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: this some sort of an ice thing? These are things
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: she said. And then on top of that, she said,
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: my daughter told me not to post this because I
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: would get canceled, But you guys tried to cancel me before.
• 2:54
  Speaker 3: But whatever, So listen, it's my opinion. Let me know
• 2:58
  Speaker 3: your thoughts.
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: But I think we all can agree that this was
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: the worst halftime performance ever. I saw that after watching
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: Bad Buddy's performance, and my jaw dropped because how ignorant
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: can someone be? And listen, It's one thing to be ignorant, Yeah,
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: and do it, and be.
• 3:22
  Speaker 3: Ignorant in a way where you're.
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: Asking questions based on information so that you can be informed.
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: What I saw just there and do with her platform
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: was she used it for to spew hate, and she
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: used it to be divisive. While everybody is sort of
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: like celebrating this performer and the messaging that he did,
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: especially during this time, she took it to make it
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: about herself and the bubble in which she lived in.
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: So my moth was to the floor. I talked about
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: it my podcast the other day, and I predicted that
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: this would happen, But my immediate reaction was you're gross. Yes,
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: I unfollowed her.
• 4:10
  Speaker 4: Oh goody it was.
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: It was a no Brandon for me.
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: I'm god and and I knew that her job was
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: on the line. And as of yesterday, which was Tuesday, February,
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: temph E released a statement along with the production company.
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: I want to make sure I get a production company
• 4:35
  Speaker 3: right of Yeah, yeah, it's okay. Let me find the
• 4:43
  Speaker 3: name of the production company.
• 4:44
  Speaker 2: But long story short, E released a statement and they
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: pretty much said that her view is on the line
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: with theirs, right, and they will not be pursuing the
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: show with her that she had with Ramona Singer, Luen
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: Della sev Sonya Morgan, Kelly Ben Simone.
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: And I believe that's it.
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: So because listen, you are a Latina, yeah, and I
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: wanted to talk to you just about your thoughts when
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: you heard it as a Latina who is watching somebody
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: represent Hispanic culture that night and how you felt watching him,
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: and then so I want to talk about that first
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: and then tell me how you felt watching what gills
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: Aara did you know.
• 5:37
  Speaker 5: I'm so excited that we're able to recap this because
• 5:42
  Speaker 5: for me seeing him do that brought up so many emotions.
• 5:47
  Speaker 5: First of all, I felt so seen because he said
• 5:53
  Speaker 5: his full name. Okay, so he said Benito Antonio Martino Socassio.
• 6:00
  Speaker 4: Right, and I'm like Manica Niki Dard.
• 6:05
  Speaker 5: And everyone made fun of me for having so many names,
• 6:09
  Speaker 5: and I'm like, my mother's born name was Linda Darnell, Susa,
• 6:14
  Speaker 5: Maria Garcia, people of Latin descent or whatever, they have
• 6:19
  Speaker 5: multiple names. And the fact that that was weaponized against
• 6:23
  Speaker 5: me from certain women on my show was disgusting. And
• 6:30
  Speaker 5: not only did he say all his names, he did
• 6:33
  Speaker 5: it why wearing Zara, which which I got made fun
• 6:38
  Speaker 5: of for wearing on my season where I Philip and
• 6:43
  Speaker 5: like said Steve Madden Zara, you know, and.
• 6:47
  Speaker 4: I was belittled for that.
• 6:50
  Speaker 5: So to see Bad Bunny on that stage saying all
• 6:54
  Speaker 5: his names, wow, Ninzara was just like, oh my God
• 7:00
  Speaker 5: for me because I have to sit there and explain
• 7:04
  Speaker 5: my multiple names like it's so ignorant, and you know,
• 7:09
  Speaker 5: I just it was so emotional for me on that
• 7:14
  Speaker 5: level because I had to fight so hard. I had
• 7:18
  Speaker 5: to deal with the cast spreading rumors that I made
• 7:21
  Speaker 5: up the last name Garcia and I was doing it
• 7:24
  Speaker 5: to Da Da Da Da and blah blah blah, and
• 7:25
  Speaker 5: I'm just like, oh my god.
• 7:27
  Speaker 4: So for me it was like healing.
• 7:32
  Speaker 5: It was healing for me to see Bad Bunny in
• 7:36
  Speaker 5: fucking Zara reciting his four names, you know what I mean.
• 7:42
  Speaker 5: It definitely was just amazing And I couldn't believe in
• 7:48
  Speaker 5: twenty twenty six that we have someone saying there were
• 7:52
  Speaker 5: no white people when for decades, decades and decades and
• 8:01
  Speaker 5: decades African Americans, latinos Asians, all these other groups have
• 8:07
  Speaker 5: had zero representation, zero, Like, how many years and you
• 8:13
  Speaker 5: know this, how many years have people not seen their
• 8:17
  Speaker 5: own nationality blasted everywhere?
• 8:23
  Speaker 4: You know what I mean?
• 8:24
  Speaker 5: Like, it's just you are so bold to say that
• 8:27
  Speaker 5: and then to sit there and say, well, it's a
• 8:29
  Speaker 5: political statement.
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: So what.
• 8:34
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, our art is not.
• 8:37
  Speaker 5: Just linear, it's abstract. It goes in all different directions.
• 8:41
  Speaker 5: He's expressing himself and he gets to do it on
• 8:45
  Speaker 5: a ginormous platform during the Super Bowl. And if he
• 8:50
  Speaker 5: wants to make a stance and say what his political
• 8:53
  Speaker 5: views are and express that, So what what is the
• 8:57
  Speaker 5: problem that's literally happening to his people right now? His
• 9:01
  Speaker 5: people are literally going through that. So why would he
• 9:06
  Speaker 5: not acknowledge that? Do you know what I mean?
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree with you one thousand percent. Everybody has
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: done it. Bruce sprestein Born in the USA, Yes, I mean,
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: and nobody complained about that.
• 9:21
  Speaker 3: And I think for Jill Zarn, Look, it has been
• 9:25
  Speaker 3: long rumored that.
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: Some of the cast of the original over a house
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: wash in New York City are prejudice and that they
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: aren't about inclusivity when it comes to other nationalities besides,
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: you know, the white race. And it's one of the
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: reasons why, allegedly Ramona Singer the show did not come
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: back with the original cast because of things that were
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: happening behind the scenes. Ramona Singer was disinvited from bravocom
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: because the comments that she made that the that the
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: network felt was divisive.
• 10:15
  Speaker 3: You know, there were because in a.
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: Text message long story short, a Page six reporter asked
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: Ramona for her reaction when a Vanity Fair ex Bose
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: in twenty twenty three reported that Ramona allegedly used the
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: N word in front of a black crew member during
• 10:39
  Speaker 2: the production of Roney's Season thirteen. So Page six reporter
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: as Ramona for her reaction. Ramona replied via text, attempting
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: to defend herself when she said the actual word, but
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: proceeded to partially write out the slurt the text which
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: they actually RepU which they actually published, so she didn't
• 11:05
  Speaker 2: write the.
• 11:05
  Speaker 3: Full inward, but she wrote and I.
• 11:09
  Speaker 2: Want to say asteris asterisk and the other letters, and
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: then she was immediately removed from Brabo Khan. So my
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: point is there's this history of some of the women
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: of Roney doing stuff like this. So with Jill Zaren,
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: who not only got fired from Ronie I believe during
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: season six, she also recorded her the interview she had
• 11:36
  Speaker 2: with Andy Cohen and Watchtappa's Live she leaked it and
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: then wow, oh no, Jill Zaren is problematic for sure, right, So,
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: I think what happened in jail is evident to me
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: that if you're so comfortable going the thing is this,
• 11:55
  Speaker 2: we're there's no cameras around now. You are so calm
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: with your opinion right that you decided to get on
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: your phone while we all are enjoying our Sunday and
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: the fact that you sat up there and not only
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: question Lady Gaga saying did she get a facelift?
• 12:18
  Speaker 3: I did not recognize her.
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: I literally had to google her face to see who
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: it was because we couldn't agree who it was.
• 12:26
  Speaker 3: That was kind of fun in the middle of halftime, like.
• 12:30
  Speaker 5: I was, so that was so ignorant, That is the
• 12:33
  Speaker 5: exactly like, I give me a break.
• 12:35
  Speaker 4: Everyone knew that was Lady Gaga. Stop it. And then
• 12:39
  Speaker 4: she said, well.
• 12:39
  Speaker 5: She was also dressed, and you know she didn't look
• 12:43
  Speaker 5: like what she wasn't singing her traditional Oh oh, so
• 12:51
  Speaker 5: because she wasn't singing her traditional pop star music. She's unrecognizable.
• 12:58
  Speaker 5: You are so dumb, You are so dumb, like I know.
• 13:04
  Speaker 5: And then to be so bold as to say there
• 13:07
  Speaker 5: were no white people anywhere, and there were white people,
• 13:11
  Speaker 5: but in the same breath you're saying Lady Gaga was there,
• 13:13
  Speaker 5: who is white? So how are you gonna say there
• 13:17
  Speaker 5: were no white people and Lady Gogo was there in
• 13:18
  Speaker 5: the same like, the whole thing was a mess. And
• 13:20
  Speaker 5: I was sitting there literally thinking does she not have
• 13:23
  Speaker 5: people around her that are like, are you insane? I mean,
• 13:28
  Speaker 5: the one guy in the video was like, you're gonna
• 13:30
  Speaker 5: lose half your followers and she's like, I don't care.
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: This is reality with the King and I'm Carlos King.
• 13:41
  Speaker 3: Let's get back into the show. She didn't care, she knows.
• 13:45
  Speaker 3: The thing is this.
• 13:46
  Speaker 2: What it showed me was that in Jill Zara's life, right,
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: these are conversations that she has at dinner around her girlfriends.
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: And I would go as far as to say it
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: is probably worst thing she has said, right, because the
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: fact that you said the NFL sold out, they sold
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: die because they had a Latin performer sing his songs
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: and his native language. You fucking idiot.
• 14:16
  Speaker 3: So insane. It was insane to me.
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: So to add insult to injury, she said again Monica
• 14:25
  Speaker 2: that my daughter said, don't post this.
• 14:26
  Speaker 4: So again I didn't know that part. That's crazy, you
• 14:30
  Speaker 4: did daughter.
• 14:31
  Speaker 2: Her daughter posted on her Instant story how she thought
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: it was a great performance that bad bunny did pretty much,
• 14:38
  Speaker 2: saying that I don't agree with my mother. And listen,
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: I'm not somebody who's going to say because your mother
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: or your parent appears to be presidented or racist, I
• 14:48
  Speaker 2: don't think automatically your child is. So the fact that
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: her daughter is like, girls, stop it, and she decided
• 14:56
  Speaker 2: to do it. It was up for two hours before
• 14:59
  Speaker 2: she deleted this.
• 15:00
  Speaker 3: It got picked up.
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: Everybody was up in arms, and again I want to
• 15:05
  Speaker 2: now I do have the statement that I do want
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: to read.
• 15:08
  Speaker 4: I mean, even in her.
• 15:09
  Speaker 5: I don't know if it's her partner or whoever, but
• 15:11
  Speaker 5: some the Gary guy was even like, look, I disagree.
• 15:15
  Speaker 5: I thought it was very unique. I thought it was
• 15:18
  Speaker 5: very you know, was that her boyfriend? Who is the
• 15:21
  Speaker 5: Gary guy?
• 15:22
  Speaker 3: I think I think it's her guy. I think it's
• 15:24
  Speaker 3: her guy.
• 15:25
  Speaker 4: Okay. He was like, bitch, you're on your ouse.
• 15:32
  Speaker 3: Yeah, like are you like? Are you kidding me?
• 15:36
  Speaker 2: And again, it's one of those things where no one
• 15:39
  Speaker 2: asked your fucking opinion, and the fact that you felt
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: so comfortable doing it lets me know how you are
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: in real life.
• 15:46
  Speaker 3: And that unfollowed her.
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: I don't follow her because it wasn't a situation where
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: you felt like, Okay, you can put it in your mouth.
• 15:57
  Speaker 2: You didn't mean it. No, you meant it because everybody
• 16:00
  Speaker 2: and Rob you're saying, don't do it, and you decided
• 16:02
  Speaker 2: to do it anyway.
• 16:04
  Speaker 4: You literally said don't care. Bye.
• 16:07
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you don't care. Just don't care.
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: So the name of this the production company is Blink
• 16:12
  Speaker 2: forty nine Studios, along with e They said, in light
• 16:16
  Speaker 2: of recent public comments made by Jill Zaran, Blink forty
• 16:20
  Speaker 2: nine Studios has decided not to move forward with her
• 16:24
  Speaker 2: involvement in The Golden Light. We remain committed to delivering
• 16:28
  Speaker 2: the series in line with our company standards and values. So,
• 16:33
  Speaker 2: according to Tim z Monica, a source close to the
• 16:37
  Speaker 2: situation said that the remaining casts were warned not to
• 16:42
  Speaker 2: say or do anything controversial, and while the women were
• 16:46
  Speaker 2: initially excited about the show, Jill's actions have dampened the
• 16:50
  Speaker 2: mood the other women understand. While I mean why she
• 16:55
  Speaker 2: was fired. Sonya Morgan did a tweet that I thought, listen, oh.
• 17:03
  Speaker 4: I didn't see this. Wait what did she say?
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: Listen Sonya? More, It wasn't anything bad. It was more
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: so about like, Okay, Sonya, I see what you're trying
• 17:16
  Speaker 2: to do.
• 17:18
  Speaker 3: Stop, she says.
• 17:21
  Speaker 2: Celebrated with my chosen family, bad bunnies, Grammy. She posted
• 17:25
  Speaker 2: herself with some Latin people, she said, while also reiterating
• 17:31
  Speaker 2: that he's the first Latino to win one and just
• 17:34
  Speaker 2: showing my love for my Latin friends and supporters. I
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: have a huge Latin following. Let's not be divisive, let's
• 17:43
  Speaker 2: be inclusive.
• 17:44
  Speaker 3: So it's one of those.
• 17:45
  Speaker 2: Things that people felt like, Sonya, we get a girl,
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: but stop, because it's giving very much like I do
• 17:51
  Speaker 2: have black friends.
• 17:52
  Speaker 4: Let's say that's exactly.
• 17:54
  Speaker 6: It's like, okay, like Sonya, And again that's one thing
• 18:02
  Speaker 6: to be like, Sonya, I get a girl, but fine, whatever,
• 18:07
  Speaker 6: you know what I mean?
• 18:08
  Speaker 2: Like, yeah, so that I felt like, okay, she wasn't
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: we saw what she was doing right. According to Jill Zarn,
• 18:19
  Speaker 2: she did an interview with In Touch Weekly, Okay, because
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: obviously that's the only people she's that will.
• 18:33
  Speaker 3: Accept her conversation.
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: She and I want to get her thoughts of her statement, Monica,
• 18:40
  Speaker 2: she said that I'm human and they did not even
• 18:48
  Speaker 2: give me a chance. I took it down right away.
• 18:52
  Speaker 2: People make mistakes.
• 18:55
  Speaker 5: That's wild, bitch, because that bunny is just human. Oh
• 18:59
  Speaker 5: my god, that's so ironic because he literally said that
• 19:02
  Speaker 5: in his Grammy speech. Bitch, So what so you're gonna
• 19:07
  Speaker 5: sit there and be like, I'm human while insulting another
• 19:12
  Speaker 5: human just for speaking a different language and sit there
• 19:16
  Speaker 5: and bitch about how you can't understand the words.
• 19:19
  Speaker 4: The fuck?
• 19:19
  Speaker 5: He's human right, just like he said, He's not an alien, bitch,
• 19:25
  Speaker 5: Like what, He's literally human too, So why couldn't you,
• 19:31
  Speaker 5: as a human, okay, accept his performance.
• 19:36
  Speaker 4: As a human, like be so fucking for real.
• 19:39
  Speaker 5: Be so you want to be given grace, you want
• 19:41
  Speaker 5: to be given a chance, but you couldn't fucking give
• 19:43
  Speaker 5: bad bunny a chance to perform and just enjoy him
• 19:46
  Speaker 5: as an artist. He had freaking Ricky Martin there, and
• 19:51
  Speaker 5: you're talking shit on Ricky Martin, you with your botch
• 19:54
  Speaker 5: filler bags right under your fucking eyes talking about how
• 19:58
  Speaker 5: he had a bad wig?
• 20:00
  Speaker 4: Are you serious? Are you? Ricky Markin?
• 20:04
  Speaker 3: Was it? You know what? So good?
• 20:12
  Speaker 4: Wish bitch, you fucking wish? Okay?
• 20:16
  Speaker 5: And he did amazing and he looked gorgeous and tan okay,
• 20:22
  Speaker 5: you piece of shit. And then you've got Pedro Pascal
• 20:26
  Speaker 5: on that stage. Honey, these are actual celebrities. Who the
• 20:30
  Speaker 5: fuck are you? Who the fuck are you to insult
• 20:34
  Speaker 5: this whole performance, which, by the way, that Bunny was
• 20:38
  Speaker 5: carrying the American flag, like what stop? And his whole
• 20:46
  Speaker 5: message was about inclusivity and the multiple flags and the
• 20:49
  Speaker 5: only thing more powerful than hate is love and blah
• 20:51
  Speaker 5: blah blah.
• 20:52
  Speaker 4: You're trash. You're actually just trash.
• 20:55
  Speaker 5: Because if you can sit there and be like that
• 20:56
  Speaker 5: was the worst halftime show and not see that you
• 20:59
  Speaker 5: are exactly the problem that he is talking about.
• 21:02
  Speaker 4: We need to stop, Like, wow, the.
• 21:06
  Speaker 5: Irony, the irony and all of that is insane.
• 21:10
  Speaker 4: It's insane to me.
• 21:13
  Speaker 2: It's beyond I literally could not agree with you more.
• 21:17
  Speaker 2: It's it's beyond insane. And her former bestie Bethany Frankel,
• 21:24
  Speaker 2: IM not sure if you know about this, Monica, So
• 21:26
  Speaker 2: I'm maybe telling you something for the first time. Bethany
• 21:31
  Speaker 2: Frankel decided to post and delete something immediately following Bad
• 21:38
  Speaker 2: Bunny's performance too.
• 21:40
  Speaker 5: Okay, I saw people like mentioning her name, but I
• 21:43
  Speaker 5: don't know what.
• 21:44
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so I didn't see this. I saw the video
• 21:48
  Speaker 2: because the video is on TikTok is now on Bethany's page.
• 21:53
  Speaker 2: I can't corroborate whether it was before or after, so
• 21:57
  Speaker 2: I want to make that very clear.
• 21:58
  Speaker 3: But read it.
• 22:00
  Speaker 2: Twitter, social media or cop They're like, no, she posted
• 22:04
  Speaker 2: this right before, so in her posts, I'm gonna say
• 22:07
  Speaker 2: alleged because I'm gonna say that allegedly.
• 22:12
  Speaker 3: Bethany Franco.
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: Question whether it was Ripe or Bad Budding to use
• 22:17
  Speaker 2: his halftime performance to express personal, cultural and political views.
• 22:22
  Speaker 2: She said in a suit my gosh, Bethany said, now
• 22:27
  Speaker 2: I did see it, So she did say this.
• 22:29
  Speaker 3: I'm just rain drops.
• 22:30
  Speaker 2: I cannot confirm if she posted this immediately following his performance.
• 22:37
  Speaker 2: I want to be that very clear because, unlike Jill,
• 22:40
  Speaker 2: Jill Zarin's post was up for two hours. So Franco
• 22:45
  Speaker 2: started the post by saying, can't wait to get canceled
• 22:49
  Speaker 2: for this?
• 22:51
  Speaker 3: Okay, the question remains. Should these entertainment vehicles.
• 22:55
  Speaker 2: Whether the Grammys, the Emmys, the Oscars, the super Bowl,
• 22:59
  Speaker 2: should this be the place for personal cultural political views
• 23:03
  Speaker 2: to be expressed. Certainly, there are major world events that
• 23:07
  Speaker 2: take place, whether COVID nineteen or tragedy is not eleven,
• 23:11
  Speaker 2: and it's unavoidable that it's discussed. But where is the line?
• 23:18
  Speaker 2: They're saying that? She went on to compare to Bad
• 23:20
  Speaker 2: Button's performance, to Dage Chapelle expressing himself by sharing transphobic
• 23:25
  Speaker 2: views in twenty twenty one, Richard gear getting into trouble
• 23:29
  Speaker 2: by criticizing the Chinese government at the ninety three Oscars,
• 23:33
  Speaker 2: and Billie Eilish speaking against Ice in her Grammys twenty
• 23:37
  Speaker 2: twenty six acceptance speech. Bethany went on to say, Monica,
• 23:43
  Speaker 2: where is the line Mark Consuelo's and Kelly Rippa are
• 23:49
  Speaker 2: allowed to express any opinions about anything going on? Doing
• 23:53
  Speaker 2: Live with Kelly and Mark as she concludes that show
• 23:58
  Speaker 2: that can barely discuss anything going coming on. It's an
• 24:01
  Speaker 2: entertainment vehicle and they keep it that way. So after France,
• 24:06
  Speaker 2: after fans dragter, excuse me, Bethany Franco, I'm gonna say
• 24:10
  Speaker 2: alleged because again it's deleted. She allegedly posted after the
• 24:15
  Speaker 2: fans dragged her, no one has done more for Puerto
• 24:20
  Speaker 2: Rico than I have, because, as you know, she has
• 24:27
  Speaker 2: a foundation.
• 24:28
  Speaker 3: Called be Good Child. Bethany Franco said, nobody has done
• 24:35
  Speaker 3: more for Rose.
• 24:38
  Speaker 4: What the fuck?
• 24:52
  Speaker 3: What?
• 24:55
  Speaker 2: Yeah?
• 24:57
  Speaker 4: The fucking o.
• 25:01
  Speaker 3: That these.
• 25:04
  Speaker 4: You know, fucking wow.
• 25:10
  Speaker 5: I don't even know where actually to even begin with that.
• 25:18
  Speaker 2: Wow. Yeah, these listen is very problematic. These these women
• 25:24
  Speaker 2: are just what.
• 25:25
  Speaker 5: Does she have and what does she have that she's
• 25:29
  Speaker 5: saying I haven't what has she done for them?
• 25:31
  Speaker 3: She has this?
• 25:32
  Speaker 2: Okay, So Bethany Franco, which listen, I find her to
• 25:37
  Speaker 2: be a very interesting let's let me let me start back,
• 25:40
  Speaker 2: let me start, but let me start back. I've always
• 25:43
  Speaker 2: found Bethany Franco to be a great reality star, right, always, always,
• 25:48
  Speaker 2: always what's happening now is and listen, this is no shade.
• 25:52
  Speaker 2: Everybody should reinvent themselves. Bethany Franco is now an influencer.
• 25:58
  Speaker 2: So she goes on TikTok, she tries and she talks
• 26:01
  Speaker 2: to her fans and listen. She has a lot of
• 26:03
  Speaker 2: money and people with a lot of money, felt like
• 26:06
  Speaker 2: they had nothing to lose, so she.
• 26:09
  Speaker 4: No money.
• 26:14
  Speaker 3: Shade and I caught that too, babe, Yes, yeah, yes.
• 26:20
  Speaker 3: So the thing is this, she is.
• 26:23
  Speaker 2: Very performative, and I feel like she does a lot
• 26:27
  Speaker 2: of shit for attention, my opinion high. So listen, when
• 26:32
  Speaker 2: Hurricane Maria happened in twenty seventeen, Bethany launched a private
• 26:38
  Speaker 2: disaster relief effort through her Be Strong Initiative in partnership
• 26:44
  Speaker 2: with Globalower Empowerment Mission. So look, she went out to
• 26:48
  Speaker 2: Puerto Rico, she did her thing, and she she listened.
• 26:51
  Speaker 2: She and her foundation gave resources, food, water, all the things.
• 26:57
  Speaker 3: And yes, happy. However, because you helped out local.
• 27:05
  Speaker 2: Puerto Ricans in twenty seventeen does not mean and listen,
• 27:12
  Speaker 2: she raised money, right, I believe a million dollars again, wonderful,
• 27:18
  Speaker 2: But it's one of those things where because you did it,
• 27:22
  Speaker 2: did you do it because your heart told you to
• 27:26
  Speaker 2: do it to be a good human or did you
• 27:29
  Speaker 2: do it for the attention. And now to bring it
• 27:31
  Speaker 2: back up in our face when you're called out for
• 27:33
  Speaker 2: your bullshit, to say, well, I have done more for
• 27:36
  Speaker 2: Puerto Rico than anyone.
• 27:38
  Speaker 5: Well, that's also just a fucking bullshit statement. That's there's
• 27:43
  Speaker 5: no fucking way in hell that in Puerto Rico's entirety
• 27:49
  Speaker 5: of being Puerto Rico, you have done the most for
• 27:53
  Speaker 5: Puerto Rico. Oh like, Ari, be so fucking for real.
• 27:57
  Speaker 5: And I would love to see you say that to
• 28:00
  Speaker 5: beneath those face. I want to see you say that
• 28:04
  Speaker 5: to his freaking face.
• 28:06
  Speaker 4: Because you never would.
• 28:08
  Speaker 5: You would never look him in the eyes and say
• 28:11
  Speaker 5: I've done more for Puerto Rico than anyone else has.
• 28:16
  Speaker 5: What is up with these women and these bold statements.
• 28:21
  Speaker 5: It's like astounding to me to sit on your plat
• 28:26
  Speaker 5: you want to talk about, Oh, where's the line and
• 28:29
  Speaker 5: should he talk about that?
• 28:30
  Speaker 3: Bitch?
• 28:31
  Speaker 5: Where's the line for you? And what's coming out of
• 28:33
  Speaker 5: your mouth? And what's okay for you guys to talk
• 28:35
  Speaker 5: about and what's okay for you? And this is exactly
• 28:37
  Speaker 5: what always brings me back to the hypocrisy from people
• 28:42
  Speaker 5: is insane. So because you're allowed to talk about anything
• 28:46
  Speaker 5: you want on your platform, you're allowed to use your
• 28:49
  Speaker 5: platform for political rants or whatever you want. He just
• 28:54
  Speaker 5: has a way bigger platform. His platform is the Super
• 28:59
  Speaker 5: Bowls stage, Okay, but it doesn't change the fact that
• 29:04
  Speaker 5: you are also using your little platform to say whatever.
• 29:07
  Speaker 4: The fuck you want.
• 29:09
  Speaker 5: So why can he not say whatever the fuck he
• 29:13
  Speaker 5: wants on his stat forum. I just I don't understand it.
• 29:18
  Speaker 5: It's insane to me. I thought the halftime show was
• 29:22
  Speaker 5: so beautiful. He literally looks at us and says, I
• 29:27
  Speaker 5: am only here today because I never never stop believing
• 29:29
  Speaker 5: in myself. Don't ever stop believing in yourself either. He
• 29:34
  Speaker 5: gives childhood beneath the A Grammy. It was beautiful. I
• 29:39
  Speaker 5: thought the set was amazing. It looked like a fucking play.
• 29:44
  Speaker 5: It was so cool how he had all the little stations,
• 29:48
  Speaker 5: and I just you can't just love that for art.
• 29:51
  Speaker 5: You go and watch fucking the opera. You're telling me
• 29:55
  Speaker 5: you know what the fuck they're saying in the opera?
• 29:58
  Speaker 5: No you don't, bitch, No you don't. Do you speak German?
• 30:02
  Speaker 5: Do you speak French?
• 30:03
  Speaker 4: Do you speak all these languages that people are singing
• 30:06
  Speaker 4: on stage?
• 30:07
  Speaker 5: No? But you still will go and pay to see
• 30:11
  Speaker 5: a show on Broadway? What the fuck is the difference?
• 30:17
  Speaker 5: It just it blows my mind. So many people will
• 30:22
  Speaker 5: pay millions of dollars to travel to Paris. You don't
• 30:26
  Speaker 5: speak French but.
• 30:28
  Speaker 4: You're still going and immersing yourself.
• 30:30
  Speaker 5: What is the problem with a ten minute halftime show
• 30:33
  Speaker 5: in Spanish?
• 30:35
  Speaker 4: What the fuck? It's astounding.
• 30:39
  Speaker 5: It's astounding to me, and I honestly can't believe the
• 30:44
  Speaker 5: uproar that it's even causing. To be completely honest with you,
• 30:50
  Speaker 5: it just it blows my mind because we're in a
• 30:52
  Speaker 5: time where everybody is like your body, your choice, free speech,
• 30:57
  Speaker 5: let people live, embrace everyone who they are. But heaven forbid,
• 31:04
  Speaker 5: heaven forbid, we have a halftime show in Spanish.
• 31:11
  Speaker 3: It's it's it's, it's it's it's just it's.
• 31:14
  Speaker 2: Just crazy, laughable, and it goes to show you the
• 31:17
  Speaker 2: character of these women.
• 31:19
  Speaker 3: And even for me.
• 31:21
  Speaker 2: It's just sort of like, I don't want to watch
• 31:24
  Speaker 2: you on television. That's my opinion. Go do your own thing.
• 31:27
  Speaker 2: I unfollow you because I don't want to even see
• 31:31
  Speaker 2: you or see anything you have going on, because to
• 31:34
  Speaker 2: be so brazen.
• 31:35
  Speaker 3: And bold and out of your ignorance.
• 31:39
  Speaker 2: Here's not somebody I want to watch and I want to see,
• 31:42
  Speaker 2: And clearly the network feels the same way, and allegedly
• 31:46
  Speaker 2: so does your step grandson who went on ridded so
• 31:53
  Speaker 2: ridd it is going wild because allegedly, allegedly, allegedly because
• 31:59
  Speaker 2: you know, Chad, I want to I'm a proper journalist, hey, Portia,
• 32:03
  Speaker 2: so I want to make sure that I let the
• 32:07
  Speaker 2: world know that this person is on Riddit posing as
• 32:13
  Speaker 2: Jill Zarn's step grandson. This is allegedly her deceased husband's
• 32:24
  Speaker 2: son's son, okay, husband's grandson, who said that I've always
• 32:33
  Speaker 2: thought it was crazy how Jill demanded cameras at body's funeral.
• 32:41
  Speaker 2: So I'm sorry, I'm sorry somebody said they thought it
• 32:44
  Speaker 2: was crazy that Jill demanded cameras at the funeral. The
• 32:48
  Speaker 2: step grandson said, thank you for saying that. My uncle
• 32:51
  Speaker 2: and aunt were literally in the funeral home when Jill
• 32:54
  Speaker 2: told them she invited Bravo to film the funeral. They
• 32:58
  Speaker 2: were in the funeral home and the funeral. My dad
• 33:01
  Speaker 2: and his brother and sister did not know what to say.
• 33:05
  Speaker 2: She was the wife and they felt like they couldn't
• 33:09
  Speaker 2: do anything, although they were disgusted. He also said that
• 33:14
  Speaker 2: all he's allowed to say is that Jill that his
• 33:18
  Speaker 2: grandfather again, Jill's deceased husband, that his will change significantly
• 33:26
  Speaker 2: very soon before he died. For example, For example, Bobby
• 33:32
  Speaker 2: told his dad that he did not want Jill's daughter
• 33:37
  Speaker 2: in his will and that there was little there was
• 33:41
  Speaker 2: litigation about that. He also goes to talk about how
• 33:45
  Speaker 2: Jill is the biggest self sabotager, that she does things
• 33:52
  Speaker 2: to ruin things for herself, and he just gives all
• 33:55
  Speaker 2: these examples about Jill. The last thing, if somebody asked
• 34:01
  Speaker 2: him what is your favorite and worst memory of memory
• 34:04
  Speaker 2: of jail, he said his favorite is her buying him
• 34:08
  Speaker 2: Pokemon cards. The worst is being forced to be on
• 34:13
  Speaker 2: celebrity wife's wid.
• 34:17
  Speaker 3: Wow.
• 34:18
  Speaker 2: So this is indicative how he's saying it's Jill Zia's character.
• 34:23
  Speaker 2: Andy co on his on his radio show, this dismissed himself.
• 34:29
  Speaker 3: From all of this. Yes, this is Ease issue, not
• 34:32
  Speaker 3: Bravo or his.
• 34:34
  Speaker 4: Yeah, she said, because I guess Taylor arm Armstrong. Yes too, Yeah,
• 34:41
  Speaker 4: so I do.
• 34:41
  Speaker 5: I haven't really followed hers that much because I I haven't.
• 34:46
  Speaker 3: What she said.
• 34:47
  Speaker 4: No, I don't tell you what she said.
• 34:50
  Speaker 2: Yes you so, and I follow her and then I
• 34:53
  Speaker 2: immediately unfollowed too.
• 34:55
  Speaker 3: Yeah. She posted on her stories, were you entertained?
• 35:02
  Speaker 2: I am embarrassed for the NFL and Apple for the
• 35:06
  Speaker 2: Super Bowl halftime show, totally in Spanish with a Cuban flag.
• 35:14
  Speaker 2: You can't make this shit up. The racist rants are
• 35:23
  Speaker 2: coming out of the former housewives and I want nothing
• 35:27
  Speaker 2: to do with them.
• 35:28
  Speaker 5: Oh my gosh.
• 35:32
  Speaker 4: So that's why he said, Okay, So that's why.
• 35:36
  Speaker 5: Yeah, that makes sense because I posted this clip like
• 35:40
  Speaker 5: in my stories where he was like, you know, two
• 35:43
  Speaker 5: people that are no longer employed by Bravo, take it
• 35:45
  Speaker 5: up with e whatever, and someone was like the Cuban
• 35:48
  Speaker 5: flag and he's like, don't get me started, Like I
• 35:50
  Speaker 5: don't want to talk, you know whatever.
• 35:52
  Speaker 4: I what the fuck? Like, how are you not looking
• 35:58
  Speaker 4: at yourself?
• 35:58
  Speaker 5: Like?
• 35:58
  Speaker 4: What is wrong with me? I am so triggered by this?
• 36:02
  Speaker 4: What is wrong with me?
• 36:03
  Speaker 5: That someone's singing in Spanish for five fucking minutes is
• 36:07
  Speaker 5: sending me into a tailspin because what the fuck is.
• 36:10
  Speaker 3: Wrong with you?
• 36:12
  Speaker 4: What the hell up with you?
• 36:13
  Speaker 3: That's that?
• 36:13
  Speaker 4: That's such a problem.
• 36:16
  Speaker 5: I just it blows, you know what, Parlos. This is
• 36:20
  Speaker 5: why I say certain people should be thinking me.
• 36:26
  Speaker 4: For not releasing a little bit, because I have a
• 36:32
  Speaker 4: lot of what bitch you already know, bitch.
• 36:40
  Speaker 5: Instead of getting me fired, bitch, you should have sent
• 36:42
  Speaker 5: me flowers on flowers, on flowers on flowers for not
• 36:44
  Speaker 5: releasing all the ship I have on your ass. But anyways,
• 36:48
  Speaker 5: I have to believe in the greater powers that be.
• 36:54
  Speaker 5: But this is why people will eventually always show their
• 36:57
  Speaker 5: own asses.
• 36:59
  Speaker 4: They will always show their own assets.
• 37:02
  Speaker 5: And also the people that are quiet, I see you too,
• 37:07
  Speaker 5: I see you too, and I, you know, am so
• 37:12
  Speaker 5: grateful for the people that have been loud, because again,
• 37:15
  Speaker 5: what the fuck is the difference when you pay two
• 37:17
  Speaker 5: thousand dollars to go see the opera of people singing in.
• 37:22
  Speaker 4: A fucking different language.
• 37:23
  Speaker 5: You will literally pay to go sit for hours listening
• 37:28
  Speaker 5: to that bullshit on a high pitch.
• 37:31
  Speaker 4: But you're in an uproar over the like it just
• 37:34
  Speaker 4: it makes.
• 37:35
  Speaker 5: No sense, It makes no sense, and you're trash and
• 37:41
  Speaker 5: going exit against his whole statement.
• 37:45
  Speaker 7: Yeah and big, you're proving exactly what he's saying. Yeah, yes, exactly,
• 37:51
  Speaker 7: And you're proven why it's important that other cultures are celebrated.
• 37:57
  Speaker 7: And it's just it's just again, these people will always
• 38:01
  Speaker 7: show you who they are, and I'm happy to now
• 38:03
  Speaker 7: know because I don't want to be associated with any
• 38:06
  Speaker 7: of that mess.
• 38:07
  Speaker 2: But before I let you go, I do want to
• 38:09
  Speaker 2: tell you this, Bethany Franco was saying. Because she saw
• 38:14
  Speaker 2: the backlash Jill was doing, she deleted her video and
• 38:19
  Speaker 2: then changed her tune and posted on TikTok Monday, the
• 38:23
  Speaker 2: day after the super Bowl.
• 38:26
  Speaker 3: Again this is alleged, but she is on her page
• 38:29
  Speaker 3: now she goes.
• 38:31
  Speaker 2: So my take on Bad Bunny and his performance at
• 38:34
  Speaker 2: the super Bowl is that he is an artist expressing
• 38:37
  Speaker 2: himself his music and his experience as a Puerto Rican
• 38:41
  Speaker 2: man in America. Bad Bunny is a Puerto Rican man
• 38:45
  Speaker 2: in America on the largest stage in the world, which
• 38:48
  Speaker 2: is very inspirational to people because that is him expressing
• 38:53
  Speaker 2: himself and his experience in his first language.
• 39:00
  Speaker 3: Are saying that she only did that.
• 39:03
  Speaker 2: Because it was and the people are reading her saying,
• 39:08
  Speaker 2: don't walk it back.
• 39:08
  Speaker 3: Now, we got the screens to proof the receipts.
• 39:11
  Speaker 5: So stand tentals down, honey, stand tent I'm not following.
• 39:17
  Speaker 3: I'm following all those women.
• 39:18
  Speaker 2: I just I don't want I personally as a black
• 39:24
  Speaker 2: person in America. I just don't want to even be associated.
• 39:31
  Speaker 2: But also I don't even want to be privy to
• 39:33
  Speaker 2: what I got going on in your life.
• 39:35
  Speaker 3: I just don't care. No.
• 39:36
  Speaker 5: I also think, you know, especially these women being from
• 39:42
  Speaker 5: New York, it really baffles me.
• 39:44
  Speaker 4: New York is a melting pot, honey.
• 39:46
  Speaker 5: Of all different kinds of cultures and people, and they
