I dont like her.
There are just specific feelings that you get.
Hormona said it correctly:She felt the presence of the enemy.

Moving on to this weeks epic drama, you stealing Jewels jokes at the table read was so funny.
Did anyone clock that you were stealing Jewels jokes at the table?
We had to rehearse.

I heard her say them out loud, and she was cackling about them.
I love balance in my life.
If someone gets me, I have to get them back.
Imgunningto get them back.
It was clear that you were upset when she placed herself behind you in the roast order.
Why did that hurt you so deeply?
I approached Jewels immediately when they said it was a roast, because were girls.
I told her I felt so bad about the challenge, I was feeling so down.
I told her all of my insecurities, and I trusted her with that.
Her taking advantage of her friend while theyre down pissed me the f— off!
You want to play dirty like that?
I get it, its a game.
I wouldnt do my friends like that.
We just met, so she didnt havethatmany ties with me.
I get both sides, but also, I like my side better.
I dont think so.
Were definitely not as close as it seemed to be on TV.
But, I get it, because were in different cities, so how close can two people be?
How long did it take you to forgive her and get to a good place?
I get over things quickly.
Its a competition…. Im fine.
Im a grown woman.
I know how to compartmentalize.
Do you look back and question why it made yousomad that someone was strategic in a competition?
I guess I just got my feelings hurt from a quote-unquote friend in the competition.
I felt backstabbed by someone I was kikiing with.
I probably wouldve put her behind the second least-funny person.
At the roast, did you do anything to ground yourself since you were so nervous?
My mind went blank.
Everyone had a card to write their jokes.
I thought I had this.
I dont know in what world [I thought] Id memorize and wouldnt need the card.
I forgot a few of my quote-unquote jokes, and it threw me the f— off.
Did you consider walking away and not doing the challenge?
Not even walk, but run and ugly cry!
If given another chance, would you stab Jewels in the back again?
I will always stab Jewels in the back.
[Laughs] I will always get you back.
I will not start it; its retaliation.
I would never stab a friend in the back for whatever.
Something you did well this season were looks and makeup.
Michelle Visage suggested you change your paint, but it didnt seem like there was a huge change.
Did you want to stay true to the aesthetic you cultivated?
This is going to sound a little shady.
This is for the people that know makeup: I did change my nose!
it’s possible for you to see how much I changed my makeup.
Its not the normal face I would do, because Im going to meet the critique in the middle…. Its kind of unfair.
Why not tell Crystal Envy to change her makeup?
She just does pretty every week.
Or Jewels, why dont you tell her to change the eye she does every week?
Whats coming up for you?
