“Before I start VanderpumpI was doing OnlyFans, and I was nervous about canceling it or not, but it actually got promoted out of my hands. Sometimes things in life happen out of your control,” Jason said. “I was like, ‘Wow, this is a crazy thing,’ but I just leaned back and avoided it, it was like ‘I’m going to lean into it and I showed that confidence and feeling that, ‘Whatever happens, happens’ and at the end of the day you just have to be confident in what you’re doing.”
He added, “It was amazing. I went in without a plan. I didn’t watch. Vanderpump before, so I was a little glad I didn’t watch it before, because I was letting it take me.”

“I’m a glutton for punishment,” said Carl when asked why he keeps coming back to Bravo. “The reason I keep coming back is because I have great friends, these are my best friends. Kyle Cooke is my best friend. I love Amanda [Batula]you are one of my closest friends, Ciara [Miller] and I’m really close. I love it In the west [Wilson] again Jesse [Soloman]Even Lindsay and I have become friends again.”
