So what has life been like for you since the show premiered? Is business busier than ever right now?
It’s the same. I have a very, very successful operation. We got about 75 people on staff, and we very, very busy as a salon and spa. I didn’t see the growth [from the show yet]. Could people recognize me? Yes. I’ve been to couple places, and people say, “Oh, you’re on The Golden Bachelorette.” That’s good for the ego but doesn’t bring me anything.
Well, I appreciate the honesty and openness.
Thank you. My friends love me because they said, “You say it the way it is.” Sometimes I [need to be] filtered, but this is my personality. I thought for a reason, being in The Golden Bachelorette and have the exposure on TV will bring me something; to be honest with you, it doesn’t bring me anything. It’s not like somebody call me and said, “Hey, let’s endorse this. Let’s do that.” I can’t say that my business has been booming since I’ve been on the show because my business was booming before I was on the show.
But are you glad you did the show?
Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. I am grateful for the experience. I enjoy the time I spend with those guys, and I enjoy meeting Joan. I think the experience alone, being away from the cell phone, the social media, the internet, and the news and be stuck with 20 guys into a house give you the opportunity to really open up and get to know each other on a personal level. That was to me the most incredible thing of that experience. Besides meeting Joan and going through the process of selection. You know what I mean? It’s funny because I went on a date with her. We took the jet, we went to Vegas, we stayed in Paris Hotel, we had a fantastic time. We came back, she said goodbye, and the next day, she’s Jonathan’s girlfriend. So somebody said, “How do you feel?” I said, “I don’t feel so bad because I got the jet.” It’s true. I get the good jet, the good food, and he get the rose and the picnic basket.” [Laughs.]
