you know?

Um, and sometimes, you know, it's like what you don't know is just as beneficial for what you know, because definitely so you need to have a little bit of like blind optimism, a little, a little bit of delusion to bet on yourself, you know, a little bit, a little bit of delusion for sure goes a long way because you look at people that have been on the show and on many shows, you know, throughout the Bible first, but our show in specific to bet on it.

Prior to your time on reality TV, what was the longest relationship you've ever had?
