00:03:03.700
that's how we communicate yeah what do you call it what do you call it when you do the the dots and
00:03:13.680
you're like morse code morse code whoa that's how we communicate i feel like people don't really
00:03:20.480
understand that the bitches who really do like live their life with the long acrylic nails yeah
00:03:25.240
it's like a whole new um intellectual property absolutely we communicate in like short and simple
00:03:33.960
we've ascended to a higher plane yeah that's us it's spiritual not everyone can do it not everyone
00:03:40.240
not everyone's built for it no that's like god took his time yeah for real for real um so i met you
00:03:50.440
for the first time yesterday and i think what's so interesting i mean i've been following you for
00:03:57.120
again i don't even know how long um you've always just been please you've always just been like a part
00:04:03.780
of my for you page like i think like every 50 videos you know you show up and you cussing somebody
00:04:09.760
out and i'm like hey okay but you know i think the thing about you that i love so much is you know
00:04:15.940
obviously there is this like beautiful like confidence but i think the thing that makes the confidence that
00:04:24.940
you display so beautiful is because it's grounded in something oh thank you that's so sweet yeah like
00:04:33.360
you're so grounded it's something that i like when i came on your show and i was nervous i had the
00:04:40.760
idea that i was nervous at first and i was like no no no because i'm gonna sit down with her and
00:04:45.280
she's gonna make me feel like i'm at home stop yeah i yeah maybe that's my earth sign probably me
00:04:52.500
being so grounded probably i don't know i i think i'm just someone who's like very i'm if someone if
00:04:58.860
there's steady hand on the wheel everyone else in the car will be okay yeah that's kind of how i
00:05:03.240
run my online presence too yeah it's like it's all right i got us yeah i'll take care of us don't
00:05:09.020
worry yeah but i papa's got you please i think what's also so cool about you is you know i mean
00:05:16.960
there's just so many different sides to you me saying this like this is the second day i'm meeting
00:05:21.840
you but these are the vibes that i'm picking up well we've known each other for a long time yeah
00:05:25.860
spiritually spiritually yeah i'm telling you yeah i mean that i agree i agree i agree yeah and i think
00:05:33.660
about like you and i think like there's so many beautiful different sides of you there's a side of
00:05:39.980
you that's you know but they come out at different points because i feel like you know something about
00:05:46.500
you i feel like uh you know you're a cancer moon so you kind of have this really strange uh intuition
00:05:55.080
yeah that's like a pulse on the reality you know when you have to be one side of yourself
00:06:00.700
you know when to be the other side of yourself yeah you know when it's safe to be this side of
00:06:05.720
yourself absolutely you know yeah it's also like um a big reason why i feel i feel so driven to
00:06:12.400
protect people because my cancer moon is makes me really sensitive very empathetic contrary to what
00:06:17.920
it may seem like on tiktok but that's like what drives me to like be so blunt and frankly violent
00:06:26.340
with my responses to people who attack like others unprovoked yeah because it upsets me it makes me
00:06:33.220
really angry so yeah i've channeled it into when i was younger i used to be a lot meaner but now i've
00:06:38.880
channeled it into more of a comedy thing like laughing at them because i feel like that stings a little
00:06:44.300
bit more cuts a little deeper yeah you laugh you know i think though i think it's so funny because
00:06:49.320
i know like you know some of those men will get um which if you are not familiar drew is notoriously
00:06:55.960
known for coming up with some of the best ways to really put men in check when someone's not putting
00:07:05.500
them in check yeah and the thing about drew is i feel like you know the men will definitely retaliate
00:07:11.260
and be like you're so violent and now you didn't have to say all that yeah but what i've noticed
00:07:16.280
is that you speak to people in a way that they understand yep absolutely you know what i mean
00:07:20.760
yeah that's again like it's one of those things when you're bigoted like you're not going to listen
00:07:26.180
to one of the marginalized groups that you think lesser up for using like politically correct terms
00:07:31.660
yeah you're you're not going to listen to them yeah obviously because you find shit like that funny
00:07:36.180
so that's why i don't waste time trying to teach you yeah i'm just gonna hurt your feelings yeah and
00:07:42.340
then you're gonna regret saying it and that's why i always i always tell people like i don't want to
00:07:46.640
change them i think that's the part we're missing yeah people think like i'm on a mission to change
00:07:50.960
them i'm not i really don't care like i don't give a shit what you do in your regular life i just make
00:07:56.240
you shut the up yeah to be honest yeah and then it works so that's my goal that's my goal is to get
00:08:02.300
you to shut up you're like you let's use douchebag number 13 764 as an example today well and that's
00:08:12.400
and it's also like when i attack looks and stuff because sometimes people are like what makes you
00:08:16.720
any better i'm like well i'm not a bigot so i'm automatically better but other than that like
00:08:22.380
anything i attack is either something that's was a patriarchal value like height right calf size
00:08:31.540
hairline those are all standards set by other men yeah they think i'm the one who made those yeah
00:08:36.800
i didn't right so when you attack them they get hurt because they're misogynistic because they're
00:08:42.100
ruled by the patriarchy or it's something that's considered conventionally attractive so like big
00:08:47.060
muscles for example i'll make fun of them and then they're like that's so mean but those are
00:08:51.420
conventional beauty standards no one's oppressing you because you're in shape yeah so like so it's
00:08:57.580
important to make fun of it because i'm like you look a fool yeah you look stupid yeah and they
00:09:02.540
don't like feeling like that yeah so like so like i want to know what i want to know is you know i
00:09:11.380
don't want to call it a villain origin story i want to know what your like superhero origin story was
00:09:19.580
has this always been the vibe what like like you know when you were like growing up like what was the
00:09:25.560
vibe like how would you like how was that like going to school did you go to school with like boys and
00:09:30.600
girls yeah how was that yeah how was that i mean for me i i think sometimes people think it's like
00:09:38.060
either a lie or it's like exaggerated but i've like genuinely my rope has always been ridiculously short
00:09:44.460
when it comes to men always literally always i've been vastly irritated since i came out the womb
00:09:51.140
specifically with men and i can't tell you why because i had a i have a great dad a dad i have a
00:09:56.560
great father figure i have multiple father figures in my life all of whom are very strong men yeah who
00:10:02.420
don't like get their jollies off sucking the life out of women yeah so i've seen how men should treat
00:10:09.640
women yeah also wait quick quick quick sidebar yeah hey drew's dad you're so gorgeous wait hold on i
00:10:16.200
wanted to i wanted to tell this story and i i forgot when i had when i had her on my show i forgot to
00:10:22.180
talk about this anthony made a tiktok and subtweeted my dad yes and i just want to bring it to light
00:10:28.560
and i saw she was talking about father's day uh shout out she's all the way some of you've been
00:10:34.040
gatekeeping your dads yeah and so then the top comment on that video said the way that i know this
00:10:39.280
is about drew she was like i was gonna at her but i didn't want to get into it you know what i mean
00:10:44.660
and i found the video i saw to my for you page i was sitting there on father's day and i went over
00:10:52.060
to my friend victoria's house victoria paris hello hi yeah um but um we um we were sitting there at
00:10:59.100
the dining room table as her girlfriend was doing something with legos yeah and she was like yo have
00:11:03.960
you seen drew's dad i was like no not yet and then like we pulled the pics and i was like wow and these
00:11:10.100
pics are recent like these are like within the past year and a half so he still looks good today
00:11:15.080
my dad is my dad and that's all i'm gonna say on that yeah i stopped tagging him and my brother
00:11:23.320
because i was like y'all hoes lost trust yes you lost privilege go stand in the corner please that's
00:11:28.880
what i say about my dad she put us in timeout i said put your phone on my dresser immediately
00:11:34.100
that's why with him well speaking of my dad my dad's a great my dad has been a wonderful dad my
00:11:39.680
entire life so when men are like that's because you don't have a dad i'm like i had the best dad
00:11:45.360
that's why i'm like this because you are trash compared to him like how he treats women i'm also
00:11:51.800
someone so like someone culture is very matriarchal so we hold women in very high regard in my culture so
00:11:58.440
women are like the son of our families so we all orbit around them so the fact that in a regular
00:12:05.400
american culture it's not like that at all i've known that forever so i i didn't like it so that's
00:12:11.680
why i've always growing up throughout school i was real mean to boys a lot i got in trouble a few times
00:12:18.640
when i was one time when i was a kid i was playing do you remember the game four square yeah you sit on
00:12:24.040
the four points cherry bomb yeah please yeah so we're playing four square um and then this this
00:12:30.360
young boy we're the same age right he cheats right and so he cheated and then he was telling me it was
00:12:37.440
my turn to be it i was like no because you're a cheater and he was like no like started trying to
00:12:43.160
like be mean to me and then i called him a name and then he started crying and then went and told on me
00:12:49.240
so then i had to go sit in the thinking chair which is timeout and i was sitting in the chair
00:12:53.620
and my teacher goes do you know why you're sitting here and i go yeah because i called him a name and
00:12:59.540
she was like okay well you can get out of the chair if you go say sorry and i was like i will not
00:13:03.480
and i refused to apologize i was i'll do the time but i will not apologize for the crime
00:13:08.220
because i was like he's a cheater and he should suffer consequences yet i'm the one sitting here
00:13:12.980
and then she told i sat there on all day i literally sat there for hours because i just refused
00:13:18.580
to apologize and so then she told my mom and my mom told me to this day i don't tell me she couldn't
00:13:24.580
she tried so hard not to laugh because i was like he's a cheater like i'm not apologizing for that
00:13:29.940
yeah i surely will not yeah and i did my time i sat there yeah i suffered i watched everyone have fun
00:13:35.600
and i was like worth it to me yeah so i called him jumbo and i didn't know it meant fat i just thought
00:13:45.100
it was mean i'm dad you called him jumbo and he wasn't jumbo i'm dad but it was also his name
00:13:50.400
was kwan if you ever see this kwan i don't forgive you yeah kwan if you ever see this and i called him
00:13:58.100
jumbo because i just watched dumbo for the first time and that's his mom's name and for some reason
00:14:03.580
that was the first so let that be a reference to me calling his mom's name is dumbo his mom's name
00:14:07.880
is jumbo oh her name's jumbo his name's dumbo oh i don't know why i thought like i don't know why
00:14:15.680
that was the first thing that came to my mind but i compare men to cartoon characters a lot
00:14:19.560
so there you go okay hold on i have to make a similarity to you i think one of the reasons why
00:14:25.120
like i enjoy your personality so much is just like my older sister she's 11 months older than me so we
00:14:32.120
were always super close like irish twins yes and she's a cancer moon as well she's a capital love
00:14:37.880
yeah so there's this thing about her where you know she would never really you know call herself
00:14:44.600
tough she would never really call herself anything she's too low-key for that but something about
00:14:50.140
her convictions yeah like when she believes in something you can't shake her on it yeah and also
00:14:56.280
it's like interesting because i see the same thing in you what i love about you is there's a little
00:15:02.760
part of you that kind of like when people get uncomfortable you kind of like that low-key
00:15:07.320
you're like i actually want to see you really like rattle the cage yeah never get too comfortable
00:15:13.120
when you're on me yeah yeah yeah i feel that yeah some of my boyfriend's friends are like afraid of me
00:15:19.520
yeah like they've told my boyfriend like i'm low-key afraid of your girlfriend yeah and i always tell
00:15:23.680
me a little healthy dose of fear i don't think hurts anybody yeah i think that's good stay on
00:15:28.160
those toes babe i yeah agree stay on your p's and q's you know what i mean what i think is so sick is
00:15:34.180
like okay so one real menace vibes all the way down yeah all the way down anyways um but i also think
00:15:45.000
it's so cool because you know it seems that when people when i've you know when other i've met other
00:15:52.780
people who sort of kind of might have a similar approach but what makes them different and what
00:15:59.240
kind of i think sets you apart is i i think that like your intentions come from a pretty
00:16:04.580
genuine and like wholesome place where i think sometimes people respond in the way that might
00:16:13.080
appear similar to how you respond to defend themselves yeah but you're kind of normally not
00:16:19.260
really on the defense no you might be on the defense for someone else to defend them if they
00:16:23.680
can't defend themselves yeah but for you you you're kind of just like yeah i can see what this is yeah
00:16:31.700
you know what i mean no yeah absolutely i think it's like a it's a real delicate balance because
00:16:38.080
sometimes you know i've gotten criticisms where people are like i don't even think she's that funny
00:16:42.480
i'm like well that's you know humor is subjective like whatever you find funny may not be funny to
00:16:46.980
somebody else but like i don't care about that like if you don't find me funny that's not really
00:16:50.220
a big deal to me yeah um but when people are like that's not even mean like see i i always say you go
00:16:56.520
for the obvious kill yeah i go for something that's gonna stick in that crowd for the rest of your life
00:17:01.480
you're never gonna go another day without thinking about me because you're gonna be thinking about
00:17:06.080
that yeah now that's mean yeah i said me living in your head is mean yeah you telling someone
00:17:11.680
they're ugly like yeah like it stings initially yeah right but then if i tell you that you look
00:17:17.360
like your toes hang over the front of your slide you're gonna think about that for the rest of your
00:17:21.340
life for the rest if i told you that you look like mountain dew code red is your favorite gas station
00:17:26.440
drink whoa you're gonna think about that for the rest of your life and i feel like we never talk about
00:17:30.400
how creative you know what i mean that's those are the ones that hurt the most to me yeah those are the
00:17:36.060
ones that are the funniest to me yeah when you're very very specific like because i'm like you just
00:17:42.300
calling someone fat and ugly like means nothing yeah you know what i mean like you're going for
00:17:46.720
the superficial totally i think what's so sick about you is if we're about to get jumped by the
00:17:51.600
bullies and there needs to be someone who's you know jumps up in the front and is like stop in the
00:17:57.380
name of love it's gonna be your care bear ass yeah so i want to know because you know i think
00:18:05.500
sometimes you know because you can give the strong one vibes yeah i want to know like what things like
00:18:13.860
do you care about what things are important to you what motivates you um i think what i care about
00:18:22.540
most in the world is like my family like my loved ones um i care what they think about me the most
00:18:29.160
right um i care what the people who love me think about me like my fans all the like marginalized
00:18:36.040
groups that i try so hard to defend i care about what they think right um whenever we've had like
00:18:42.400
i've had open discussions with my fans when i'm like hey what do you guys think about this
00:18:45.780
i'm so open to reception because i know that not everyone's perfect and nobody nobody started out
00:18:52.460
being extremely woke and present and everything we all did and said things that we are no longer
00:18:59.300
advocating for when we were younger i'm talking like things that are funny to laugh at i'm not
00:19:04.400
talking like racism or homophobia yeah that's not what i'm talking about those things are like
00:19:09.240
there's always been like a a very clear line yeah you know what i mean stuff like that but it's like
00:19:14.500
terminologies like words we used to use to laugh at things that we used to find funny are no longer
00:19:20.240
funny because now we know better which is the beauty of growth and evolution yeah so i care a
00:19:25.860
lot about when people are telling me because like i'll give you a good example right when i first
00:19:30.040
started making content i would always specify cis men right i always said like cis men is who i'm
00:19:35.560
talking to i did that several times and then one of my followers who's trans a trans man messaged me
00:19:41.880
and told me asked me politely and very like educational like they asked me can you please not
00:19:49.560
specify anymore because this invalidates trans men because you're distinguishing between the two
00:19:55.480
like you're saying like oh you aren't these men or you're not real men whatever that may be
00:20:00.320
so i never specify anymore because he was right you know what i mean like and that's the last thing i
00:20:06.400
ever want to do is be like someone who isn't open to learning more about stuff like that yeah so i was
00:20:14.100
like i totally understand where you're coming from so i amended it so i stopped doing that because and
00:20:19.600
that was a long time ago but i stopped doing that because i always want to be someone who's open
00:20:23.660
to learning but at the same time i want to be as inclusive as i possibly can yeah those are things
00:20:28.860
that i care about a lot when it comes to my content like being open and receptive to things like that is
00:20:34.320
important to me yeah so you know you know what i just want to really quickly round of applause you
00:20:39.380
guys for drew for having a working brain and a beating heart and a beating heart yes nail class
00:20:48.140
love that that's actually it's very rare these days i feel like you know bitches are waking up
00:20:55.520
which it's not that serious it's never that serious but bitches are waking up yeah um and i feel like
00:21:01.380
i think you know it's it's it's cool that you know especially when i see like you kind of rolling with a
00:21:08.260
crew you rolling with the posse every time you roll up and it's always your family yeah and that's so
00:21:14.360
beautiful to me thank you you know yeah i appreciate that yeah my family we rolled deep i was like
00:21:19.760
my team and here here and also my team that manages me and everything knows too like if i can i ask for a
00:21:27.520
plus six yeah if i can and it's all family yeah like and i just bring them because i need them and
00:21:33.160
yeah they like to come along so yeah it's a win-win yeah do you think that um it's so interesting do
00:21:39.880
you think like because i obviously like you know the things that you sort of plug into your character
00:21:48.400
come from like how you were raised yeah do you think like in your family dynamic like you're the
00:21:56.000
strong one as well um i mean yeah i guess it's i guess it depends on your definition or of strong
00:22:03.940
or like where do you think you fall like what like what role like where are you in the list of of like
00:22:09.780
well i'm a middle child right so yeah so my sister's the oldest and we have a baby brother
00:22:15.480
um i'd say my mom's probably the strongest out of my entire family my mom is just like
00:22:20.760
my mom's that girl same you know so she she's been pushing and working my mom had us really young
00:22:26.780
like both my parents were my parents are high school sweethearts so yeah so they've been together
00:22:31.660
been together for a long time that's crazy yeah i love that i think they're going on 30 years
00:22:36.600
so my parents have been together for a long time right so um i would say out of the three of us
00:22:43.280
my brother's probably the most like la la la right because he's the baby so like he gets to be that
00:22:49.580
way he gets to be aloof because he has two uh older sisters and everyone lets him low-key yeah
00:22:55.940
yeah yeah yeah my mom lets him get away with murder um and then my sister my older sister is like
00:23:02.280
she's like the mom of the siblings like my mom my sister takes care of all of us like
00:23:07.340
my sister literally used to help me uh submit for financial aid when i was in college every year
00:23:12.840
yeah my sister did it for me yeah like i'd be like hey uh can you help me and then she's like
00:23:17.520
does that mean you just want me to do it and i was like i mean don't threaten me with a good time
00:23:21.620
yeah i was like she did it anyway she sets our doctor's appointments she calls and figures things
00:23:27.540
out for us like she's done that forever so i think for me i'm more of a i'm strong in the sense of like
00:23:34.620
i don't let anyone walk all over my sister or my brother because both my brother and my sister are
00:23:40.260
very open yeah and very forgiving and in that sense it's not an i with my brother i think it's
00:23:46.240
naive with my sister i think it's just trusting both of them are just very trusting yeah and i
00:23:50.240
don't trust anybody yeah so every time i'm like no like i tell my sister no you deserve better than
00:23:55.160
that absolutely not yeah my brother sometimes i give my brother insults like i'll tell my brother
00:24:00.700
what's he look like and then i say okay this is what you say to him the next time he tries to say
00:24:04.680
something this is what you say to him yeah i do that with my brother all the time i'm like this
00:24:07.980
is a don't ad lib just say the lines that i gave you yeah he goes all right cool because my brother's
00:24:13.540
just so sweet that he doesn't think about things like that yeah and so i'll tell him i'm like what's
00:24:18.240
he look like describe him to me paint me a picture so i can think of something funny to say so like i'd
00:24:23.140
say i'm strong in that sense yeah and far as far as my family dynamic but like every single one of us
00:24:27.720
brings something essential to like our family so i think that's why i bring them everywhere yeah i understand
00:24:33.840
that yeah i honestly would if i could yeah they're just always so my family's so busy they're always
00:24:39.880
we're all workaholics and yeah all like you know i think same honestly my little sister it's so funny
00:24:46.580
so when i was growing up and i was in high school i was like the like i was like i was raised catholic
00:24:51.660
like i was definitely like virgo rising all the way down like i went to catholic school until i was
00:24:57.180
probably in the sixth grade and then you know but i was still the wild child because you know i was not
00:25:03.640
going to miss out having a good time and i think that i'm one of those people who you know i think
00:25:08.940
also you having a sagittarius rising yeah something about you know the thing that even though you are
00:25:14.380
close with your family you do sort of take the same perspective and bring it or extend it to the rest
00:25:22.440
of the world yeah meaning like you sort of you know you have a worldly perspective yeah you know
00:25:27.900
and so i um and we march to the beat our own drum oh yeah yeah oh yeah we step out did you get in
00:25:33.780
trouble the most because i did i did yeah yeah i definitely i was the most expensive child i'm proud
00:25:38.360
of that i you know i definitely like got in trouble the most um same and i think that i always tell you
00:25:45.680
know my mom it's so great that my mom is like the best mom in the world same with mine to my little
00:25:53.240
sister especially and i think i was part of that because i i feel like i low-key shaped that
00:25:59.740
relationship like it's it was really me you say you're welcome yeah you're welcome like i definitely
00:26:03.940
chilled her out a lot because i really was rocking the boat whenever i could i didn't even mean to it's
00:26:08.860
just that i literally like was like i'm just trying to i'm about the vibes like we have similar
00:26:15.500
stories in that sense yeah yeah because my mom says about my older sister my my mom was like she
00:26:20.420
was the perfect baby never cried loved everyone like so sweet like she was so like hi hi to everyone
00:26:28.980
everything she goes so when i got pregnant with you i was like this gonna be easy because dason was a
00:26:33.820
walk in the park and then she came i she said i came out mad oh i came out i came out the womb mad
00:26:40.080
so like i was grumpy i never let anybody hold me i was so angry all the time i was a picky eater
00:26:47.160
stubborn know-it-all carries that's a virgo thing you know what speaking of it being a virgo thing i think
00:26:53.720
i want to also add this segment because as i'm talking to people i'm realizing that i pick up things
00:27:00.020
about signs yeah like what things i feel like you know certain signs could benefit from knowing yeah
00:27:05.880
i feel like as a virgo rising i peeped at virgos whenever you feel like you know life is crazy and you
00:27:12.340
don't feel like yourself yeah just start criticizing shit you will start no i mean i know it sounds
00:27:18.380
ridiculous but it will start making you feel like i woke up this morning and i was so disheveled
00:27:26.200
yeah i woke up at 3 a.m and i was like oh my god i was thinking about the show thinking about you
00:27:31.480
which by the way i had a dream about you which is lemon gemini moon so i like literally like i
00:27:36.720
i do like go on tangents and i realized that we have talked about three different subjects in the
00:27:41.500
past 30 seconds let me while that though yeah so i had a dream that you know you and i were sitting
00:27:47.400
at this restaurant in calabasas called shibuya best sushi ever but we weren't getting sushi we were
00:27:52.620
eating like shrimp and chicken on top of rice and like pineapples okay have you seen those it was so
00:27:59.980
random i was like what and it was like multiple pineapples with food in it i was like girl you
00:28:04.540
know it's a dream because i would never order that yeah at a sushi restaurant yeah and it was just you
00:28:09.460
and me and it had like some like kind of chipotle mayo on top of it interesting and i was like this
00:28:13.980
is this does not seem to go together were we having fun yeah we were having fun it was a good time
00:28:18.740
all right love that i was with the shit i love rice too me too yeah like i can't live without
00:28:23.640
carb girl carb girl keep the ass fat yeah you know what i mean feed her feed her
00:28:28.780
so but i i was like thinking about this and when i woke up i was it was like really early
00:28:35.720
and then i was like let me just start getting my day started and i was like hell no went to sleep
00:28:41.100
woke up at seven i was like shit so then i woke up and i started thinking about what we were doing
00:28:47.220
today and i just started criticizing things that i was doing oh yeah i started criticizing things that
00:28:52.360
i was doing yeah i started criticizing like you know things i felt could be better things that i
00:28:56.960
felt like i could you know ease into yeah and i felt like when i did that i started to feel more like
00:29:03.540
myself yeah and not for the sake of criticizing but for the sake of being like these are my thoughts
00:29:10.760
yeah this is who i am this is how i roll this is what i like yeah i honestly i agree with you
00:29:16.560
because i think a hallmark of being a virgo is the workaholic thing is big right um overachieving
00:29:24.180
is a big virgo thing um and also being hypercritical of your work ethic and how you're being if you're
00:29:31.520
being productive and how yeah is a big virgo thing so workaholic like stubborn about not taking breaks
00:29:37.900
about not you know what i mean like just constantly constantly working so like i always feel better when
00:29:43.020
i could criticize what i'm doing because i can control it and virgos have a big control thing
00:29:48.700
yeah so like they they have to control things it's so weird we're also big know-it-alls which i feel
00:29:53.940
like virgo men i've i've slandered many people on twitter about astrology capricorns mainly i started
00:30:01.600
a capricorn hay train i made it oh i made it trend yeah because that's how much that's how much fire i was
00:30:07.340
spreading about capricorns you guys are all right yeah anyways with virgos i said virgo men came
00:30:12.560
straight from hell i'm convinced yeah crawled right out of the sewer genuinely like pennywise and then
00:30:17.380
i described virgo men as like i feel like virgo men i feel like sagittarius men had like bad sushi
00:30:24.340
and threw up and then virgo men like became they were born out of it yeah that makes sense yes i describe
00:30:30.700
virgo man as like uh the dude at a children's birthday party that's like too rough with the pinata
00:30:35.960
like gets in the line and it's too aggressive yeah too much too much take it down a notch yeah
00:30:42.500
right it's for kids it's we're all having a good time yeah that's virgo man that's like a summary
00:30:47.460
of this is the kid's party bro yeah have you ever played a board game with a virgo man yeah good luck
00:30:52.000
good luck because you're losing all the pieces when he throws it at the wall because he's losing
00:30:55.800
oh you know what i mean yeah he's one of those yeah so he's one of those yeah you know i have to say
00:31:02.360
this is my favorite part of the show because i sit down this is called reading with the stars
00:31:06.420
love but it looks like when this part of the show comes on the fan submissions we're about to do
00:31:12.500
yeah they get to read us and i never know i never listen to them so i'm excited so let's get the fan
00:31:19.860
submissions you guys called on a voicemail on a number that i always put on my story whenever we
00:31:24.460
do them um we're gonna play some of them right now so we can hear them out loud and we'll react to
00:31:29.100
them in literally real time yeah let's do it hey uh this is eris wanting to talk to drew and ask
00:31:35.280
you some questions um how do you feel about sag woman who do you fangirl the most over and the
00:31:43.340
biggest tip on having self-worth that's it thank you drew love you so much sag women i i love sag
00:31:50.140
women we ride for sag women yeah and she's a sag woman yeah my mom and sister are both sag women
00:31:55.700
so like i i fuck heavy with sagittarius women honestly the only bad things i have to say are
00:32:01.060
about men shocking yes the branding she's consistent yeah yeah yeah absolutely the second one was i
00:32:07.980
actually had an experience in my life where i was a sag man and it was so bad that i literally aborted
00:32:15.180
the mission and decided to be a sag woman they got it wrong yeah y'all got it all wrong got it wrong
00:32:20.300
and i was got it wrong the stars got it all wrong you're incorrect yeah they're like you're gonna be
00:32:24.900
a sag man in this life i said hell no and that's that's part of your virgo yeah refusing yeah no
00:32:31.320
yes i think not yes i think you're wrong yeah i'm not gonna do that well i rest my case
00:32:35.860
a virgo fangirling that's a rare sight no it truly is that's so funny i i'm to be honest with you
00:32:44.520
because i i work in this industry now yeah you know you you meet a lot of people that you've seen
00:32:49.520
before only in like movies tv online totally um it takes a lot to shake me i don't think i've ever
00:32:55.200
been like oh you know what i mean if i was gonna fangirl over someone you know who i'm a really big
00:33:03.040
fan this is so random but you know i'm a really big fan i can't wait like i'm manifesting that one
00:33:07.620
day i'll get to meet um caesar milan do you know the the dog whisperer i idolize that guy do you let
00:33:15.740
me tell you something if you do nothing else go on disney plus and watch the the dog whisperer tell
00:33:21.820
me it doesn't change your life i i swear to god i watched it and i was like i'm a dog trainer i
00:33:27.000
actually used to be an assistant for this woman who was adamant about getting her dogs checked every
00:33:34.140
quarter with a whisperer was it caesar milan i don't think so then then he doesn't count yeah
00:33:40.140
that's why there's only one and i swear to god my boyfriend and i got so into the show over quarantine
00:33:45.920
especially that i started training the dogs i was like i am more than qualified i've watched like a
00:33:51.380
hundred episodes i'm dead i'm more than prepared yeah i started doing a little thing it doesn't really
00:33:56.780
work that well for me because i'm not the chosen one he is got it so i've i i watched that show like
00:34:03.180
my life depends on it like like one day the apocalypse is going to be on the brink of
00:34:07.600
happening and they're going to be like we need a dog whisperer that's not caesar milan and then i'm
00:34:10.520
going to step to the plate you're going to be like i'm going to be there pick me i'm going to be like
00:34:13.620
choose me i mean love me i would say him oh my god i would die to meet him also the rock but i think
00:34:21.420
that that's just pretty on brand yeah because we're both someone men like just the two of us out here
00:34:27.040
brother it's just the two of us friend so yeah that's what probably i mean i fangirled really
00:34:32.860
really hard when i lizzo duetted my video yeah so love her stan her forever i don't know i just
00:34:40.160
can't really think of anyone that would make me like i feel like you're the same yeah i don't have
00:34:44.080
many people that would make me feel that way i think i literally only have two people in mind and
00:34:49.640
it's no three people it's stevie nicks oh that's a good one brandy the singer oh love that iconic and
00:34:58.020
rihanna oh that's a good one there was one time i was actually leaving my barber shop yeah and i was
00:35:04.320
in the east village in new york and i saw this rolls royce suv and outside of it was asap rocky
00:35:12.000
and some other dude um some other dude they were like smoking a doobie or something like that and
00:35:18.380
whatever and i walked by them mad casual whatever and then once i was like a block past them i literally
00:35:28.040
my heart started palpitating i missed a couple beats because i my brain caught up and was like
00:35:34.880
that dude knows rihanna that's how i would feel if i saw asap rocky too literally honestly you know rihanna
00:35:42.520
yeah oh my god like are you a friend of rihanna's friend of rihanna oh i swear to god if someone
00:35:48.100
like a baby with her if someone ever meets asap rocky please approach him that way yeah that'd be
00:35:53.100
so funny yes oh i live you're rihanna's man right yeah right right you know her right yeah you know
00:35:58.660
her can you tell her to hang out with me uh beyonce is a big one totally like obviously my virgo queen
00:36:05.560
my virgo queen the only virgo that matters is beyonce yeah only virgo that matters only virgo that
00:36:10.760
matters her and keanu reeves yeah that's cool i'm cool with that yeah yeah people have called me
00:36:16.280
john wick so that makes sense yeah yeah yeah that was john wick for halloween oh last year and my
00:36:21.940
my boyfriend was the dog that gets murdered that sent him on a spiral that was literally that was the
00:36:27.940
two of the biggest dog you've ever seen in your life please no yeah some people were like i don't
00:36:33.160
get it like when they saw us which like i'm like bitch girl if you know you know because i was like i
00:36:38.020
was gender bending john wick essentially yeah so wearing my dad's clothes please and then uh and a
00:36:44.280
wig and then when we posted the pictures they were like oh okay that's awesome they were like that's
00:36:50.980
sick i like that yeah but yeah they call me john wick because it's like someone they're like you know
00:36:56.060
baba yaga is like a big thing so i'm just a boogeyman whoa wait do we have another um fan submission
00:37:02.280
so we're gonna go on to our second fan submission right now let's do it play it up hi antony and
00:37:09.280
you um i'm a huge fan of you guys but i just wanted to ask you guys is there a phase like a fashion
00:37:17.620
phase you guys both went through that you want to go back but you know you could never repeat it
00:37:23.980
and can you tell us what i want to go back to but could never that we went through but we can
00:37:33.960
never go back through oh man i went through a real i guess now you would call it maximalism okay but i
00:37:42.160
was ahead of the curve but i was on my maximalist grind did it look like garbage yes but i was free
00:37:49.040
and i think i would love to do that i can no longer um but i used to wear all the colors and
00:37:55.400
all the patterns real like ashley tisdale core you know what i mean early 2000s yeah that was me
00:38:00.720
layering wait because how old are you 24 okay yeah so you're not that far away from me but yeah like
00:38:05.900
real real early disney channel like d-com era yeah yeah yeah that would be fun to go back to i like
00:38:12.040
kind of like remade a couple looks of that last year it was kind of it was definitely kind of
00:38:18.620
like i'm not i think that like i'm not beyond putting a dress and um and like jeans or pants
00:38:25.420
i was gonna say i think they're a serve they're a serve i mean trends are cyclical right so they
00:38:29.460
always come back totally but um low rise i'll jump off a building instead you know what don't bring
00:38:35.420
those back i will say i think that like i just i don't know like i feel like for some people it
00:38:45.040
looks really good i agree yeah right and i that's that's like my biggest thing with fashion is like
00:38:49.920
i you just find what looks best on you yeah and i want to just quickly say not that i would ever go
00:38:56.580
back to it but there was this era that i had like junior year of high school where i had this like
00:39:01.960
one like top man leather jacket that i would not let rest throughout the months of july i remember i was
00:39:10.900
like walking outside in the humidity of like somewhere in the boonies in north carolina because
00:39:16.540
my parents were like oh like you want to go out but we're not driving you it was before i had a
00:39:20.240
license oh mind you i failed my permit test 13 times so they're like we're not gonna let you drive
00:39:25.820
any of our cars anytime 13 i thought you're gonna say three because i was gonna say same
00:39:29.900
but we can't relate yeah i feel actually twice i passed the third time on the stupid permit when i got
00:39:37.100
my license i passed on the first try yeah me too yeah let's see turns out our parents were wrong
00:39:41.860
yeah yeah my mom was literally this is again look there's a reference back to my sister because
00:39:47.500
i failed twice and my mom took off work or like left work early to take me no and my mom was so mad
00:39:52.880
that she was like the third time ask your sister i'm not bringing you anymore yeah because my sister
00:39:57.080
was chauffeuring me everywhere because she was the only one who had a license so then i she took me
00:40:01.580
she's like dude you gotta pass this time bro i was like i know i was literally just like words of
00:40:07.140
encouragement your sister's a sag right yeah words of encouragement from a sag there you go dude you
00:40:11.760
gotta pass this time bro like actually that's it okay we're gonna go into our third fan submission
00:40:17.740
our last one yeah perfect i'm so excited this is addison um i guess i don't i guess this is a question but
00:40:25.800
um how do you guys feel like about regular people i guess wanting to be friends with
00:40:34.080
influencers or celebrities per se i feel like there's so many personas online that i feel like
00:40:40.600
i would get along with but it's just so like fuck to reach out and be like oh my god like i think we'd
00:40:45.520
be great friends because influencers have to be careful about like who they hang out with and reach
00:40:51.660
out to i just was wondering like how do you guys feel about stuff like that that's tea that's a
00:40:56.640
really that's a real interesting question yeah um i don't want to say i think it's bad i just think
00:41:03.920
that you should i mean it seems like this person is is aware that it's like awkward like it's a little
00:41:09.680
strange like if you're really if you're a really big fan of someone and then you just want to like
00:41:15.420
hang out with them yeah you know what i mean maybe i just can't relate though because like the people
00:41:20.200
that i'm really big fans of i like never want to meet i don't want to know yeah like what if
00:41:24.300
they're terrible what if they're annoying totally you know what i mean i don't want to know so like
00:41:28.580
i don't know i i guess it's like i feel like so for me like and i think this is partially the fact
00:41:36.600
that you know i'm a sag and i'm african and i just it's just like we are so it takes a village
00:41:44.420
yeah to do anything yeah it takes a village to literally do anything literally i'm so about the
00:41:49.220
vibes yeah so i've met people before who you know have seen me or know me from my videos they
00:41:56.240
didn't really give like fan behavior yeah because the vibes were like so sick and like we're so cool
00:42:02.480
like i i will like if the vibes are right i will talk to anyone like i do love that yeah it's all
00:42:09.880
about the vibes the vibes don't lie like you know yeah you have to i think you just like have to be
00:42:14.980
you have to be cognizant too that like creators who you see online is not their entire personality
00:42:22.160
oh my god that's just one facet of it so you may think that you would want to be friends with this
00:42:26.240
person yeah and then you meet them in real life and you're like actually yeah thank you so like not
00:42:31.140
to say that that's about me or you yeah but like you think you know them is like what i think is
00:42:36.500
important to distinguish because it's parasocial yeah so like you feel so close to this person because
00:42:41.720
you watch them all the time you learn all these things about them but like it the risk it's not
00:42:47.620
reciprocal in that sense like i don't know anything about you totally so you coming at me with like i
00:42:52.660
know everything about you i think we would be friends i think that should be left up to us yeah
00:42:57.560
because you know a lot about me but i don't know anything about you i agree a thousand percent yeah
00:43:01.420
because like and i think that's also one reason why i love you know being able to do different
00:43:05.400
things on different platforms like do this show it's like a different side of me i feel exactly
00:43:09.980
because like you know to see me on like a bbl timeline is one thing yeah but that's like so
00:43:16.420
like one side of my personality and it's like one one hundredth one one hundredth like if that so
00:43:22.660
totally that's why i'm like you know some people like when they meet me in real life they're like
00:43:28.320
you're actually a lot more quiet and like laid back i'm not shy by any means but like i'm just a lot
00:43:34.520
more chilled out than they thought i would be i expected you to be exactly how you are
00:43:39.020
see some people like uh i'll give you a good example teffy yeah you know teffy yes she's
00:43:45.140
so fun she's wild in real life but she would never think that when you watch her content yeah you
00:43:50.920
know what i mean like you you watch her content she seems real calm and and like wise which she is
00:43:55.500
yes but that's only one half of her yeah totally the other half of her she's so fun she's literally
00:43:59.880
so she's such a good time i was like walking i was walking to my hair appointment which i literally
00:44:05.080
have a hair appointment every week i was walking to my hair appointment and like i get a call from
00:44:10.620
her i'm like hello she's like yo i for real just you just passed my table like we were it was
00:44:17.740
somewhere in like in like nolita and in new york yeah and i went back i went back she's like just
00:44:23.740
come back the way you were walking and i turned back and she's sitting there with a different hair
00:44:27.820
color and she's like bro yeah i'm like yo this is that's why i said teffy teffy's a good example
00:44:33.960
too because like that's only one half of her yeah one one like piece of the pie yeah but she's like
00:44:39.060
so fun and loud and crazy and like just like the most the best time at the party yeah so like you
00:44:45.500
would never gather all of that though just from like her advice videos totally because she is really
00:44:50.540
a wise person and she's really patient and kind and loving yeah which is a whole nother side to her
00:44:55.640
i feel like and not just like right there just like answers the question yeah it's kind of like
00:44:59.440
i like if you if you let these people that you see like on the internet and you see and you look up
00:45:07.060
to or you follow if you like meet them in real life irl and you let them be who they are yeah you
00:45:14.500
know and it works then yes you know what i mean exactly that's my point because i was like let us
00:45:19.020
decide that yeah but also for safety reasons we can't just hang out with you just because you think
00:45:23.840
we would get along yeah i wish that would you know i wish the world wasn't that way but just
00:45:28.700
like for pure safety that's why we don't do things like that yeah but you know like we will you and i
00:45:34.940
talked about this a little bit yesterday offline but like meeting people in real life that are big
00:45:38.840
fans of your content is like and beauty beauty and race that's an inside joke that's an inside joke
00:45:45.860
beauty and brain oh my god that joke would kill if we could tell it yeah so like i think it's like
00:45:55.460
um it's real like specific to the person depends it depends just tread carefully and like be nice
00:46:01.760
when you meet them in person like don't don't overstep or anything like that and i'm sure like
00:46:06.480
it'll if it happens naturally let it happen let it happen yeah organically but if not it's okay too
00:46:12.260
