Speaker 1 (00:13):
So I've watched a few of the Denise clips of
her on the Housewives, and it's a really great example
of how that pressure cooker really concentrates any feelings you
have or hostility or resentment or pent up anger or frustration.

(00:39):
Because I know Denise. We're not best friends, and I
don't know her very very well. But I don't know
that Denise. My publicist has worked with her for thirty
years doesn't know that Denise. So the only people that
really know that Denise are the people that work on

(01:03):
the Housewives and maybe her ex husband. Because that was
a pressure cooker and we'll put you in a situation
where you're going to just act out. Now. I don't
say don't blame people for their actions. People should be
held accountable for their actions. You guys say people know

(01:25):
what they signed up for, And I get all that.
I'm just stating the facts. The craziness that you often see,
whether it's Sutton repeating herself twenty seven times or me
standing up and having a hysterical breakdown in a restaurant
in Miami, that's not something I've ever done in any

(01:45):
other situation. That particular pressure cooker just blows your lid
off for whatever that's worth. And no one's crying for
wealthy housewives. I get that in many ways. I'm just
saying that forever, Denise will have that reputation from doing

(02:08):
that show and those scenes, just like I will from
standing up and having a breakdown in Miami or calling
someone a name or whatever, which I don't do in
my normal life. And is it worth it? Is the

(02:29):
fame and the money, And when we're old and gray,
are we going to say the way that we acted
was worth it. Someone commented on a post about the
Denise podcast saying that I left Bravo but can't stop

(02:49):
talking about it. And I talk about a lot of things.
Bravo is certainly one of them because for a quarter
of my life I was on Bravo. Think about that
I was on the Housewives for just about twenty five
percent of my life. Think about the housewives that have

(03:10):
been on Bravo for maybe even a third of their lifetime, Like,
try and process that. I can tell you this with
great certainty. No one has ever become a better person
being on the Housewives, or on reality TV for that matter,

(03:32):
but particularly on the Housewives. No one, There's no example
of a person who's become a better person on reality
television or on the Housewives. I've seen people become more famous,
more attractive, more funny, more relevant, more rich, more fashionable,

(03:57):
more superficial, more worthy. I've never seen someone become a
better person. And at a certain point in your life,
you have to take stock and think about what could
possibly matter more in life than the kind of person
that you are. So when I reflect on either my

(04:25):
time on the Housewives, or talk to people who have
had different experiences on the Housewives, or do a podcast
using that show as a vehicle to discuss other issues
that women go through, it's my business, it's my body,
it's my choice, it's my experience, and it was a

(04:47):
quarter of my lifetime. So now bloggers, trolls, TikTok, and
the girls on the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills are
talking about Denise Richard's only Fans page and how much

(05:11):
she's charging. And Denise unintentionally did a great marketing infomercial
for her only Fans page. So I only hope that
she is ringing the register and that coins are flying
out of that machine. Because while the talk verse and

(05:34):
people on Instagram want to criticize her and think that
they are criticizing her and taking her down. She's a
woman who's beautiful in her fifties. It's not the same
as when she was a bond girl and in her twenties.
We're moms. We have different responsibilities, different bills, different realities.

(06:01):
And Denise is sexy and she's on OnlyFans. She's owning
her own sexuality, making her own choices, no problem. Right,
here's the thing, Only Fans. I think someone told me
a staggering number like they're getting. There's no way like
five hundred thousand new subscribers a day. So if she

(06:24):
takes a tiny percentage of the subscriber base at seven
dollars to yes unlock photos, it's it's astronomical money. It's
money that puts kids through college, it's money that is
a retirement plan. So maybe she did the housewife so
she could market her Only Fans page, and she should

(06:45):
send an edible arrangement and a muffin basket to each
housewife and each blogger for bringing more traffic into her
Only Fans where she's ringing the register
