What first inspired you to partner with Seedlip and why did you feel now was the perfect time to step into the non-alcoholic space?
I think Seedlip is a really beautiful, great, independent product. The idea of bringing it to Bluestone Manor was iconic and was very well received. I feel like it’s the perfect fit for me because I love having fun. I know a lot of people reset in January, so having options is really important. This allows people to enjoy great drinks without feeling excluded or inferior.
Do you have a favorite flavor?
Garden 108 is my favorite. But hey, I like Spice 94 because I love espresso martinis, so I don’t feel cheated. And I love the bottle.
Please listen. Even if you haven’t done a full Dry January, there’s a real movement of wanting to be a part of something, sometimes with alcohol, sometimes without. At Bluestone Manor, we’re all about making people feel comfortable and happy, and providing elegance and vibrancy, so we thought a partnership at Bluestone Manor was just perfect.
If you were to host a dinner with Seedlip at Bluestone Manor, which Real Housewives would be on the guest list and who wouldn’t?
Well, I definitely have a girlfriend, Lou (Luann de Lesseps). Because we’re like partners in crime. I think they’ll invite Kyle Richards, Lisa Rinna, and Porsha Williams. I know these guys are from traitorsbut I love Porsha.
I want a colorful dinner filled with vibrant personality. I would have to say Tamra Judge. There is bound to be some conversation there. And Erika Jayne, I love Erika Jayne. I could see her living at Bluestone Manor.
Do you have any tips for people who want to participate in Dry January and continue after the month is over?
With Seedlip, you will feel better and no longer feel cheated.
Please tell us about the projects you have participated in. traitors.
It’s very interesting. I was talking to NBC and one of the things they told us was: traitors has single-handedly brought back the watch party, or watercooler, moment. It has been very well received and we feel that people are actually relaxing and enjoying it.
What made it happen again?
I had unfinished business. In fact, it was so funny that when I was asked to do it again, I burst into tears because I wasn’t expecting it. And of course, when I got to my first breakfast, I cried my eyes out again. It was a very moving experience. I was asked what my strategy would be this time, and I answered, “I’ll wear four clothes.”
above traitorsif you could give anyone a Real Housewives catchphrase, who would it be and what would it say?
Whether we go home early or late, everyone is very fond of the people they meet, and we all value each other very much. But I think I’ll give it to Johnny Weir. They say, “I may be an Olympic skater, but I’m dressed to kill people.”
Thinking about reality TV, are there any other competitions you would like to compete in?
You know, I always thought that because of my aerobics background, that’s still with me. And now that I’m a DJ, I think I’m a candidate for aerobics. dancing with the stars. I have a feeling that this is coming through to me. I really think so.
We imagine your future victories in the mirror ball. What music would you dance to and who is inspiring your moves these days?
oh my god. I feel like everything has gone crazy. You know, I’m someone who always goes back to the classics. However, I have to say that I really enjoyed Madonna’s new album this year. I’m sure she’s released some less catchy work before, but I love the emotion of her new album. It’s really who she is and she’s not trying to be anything else.
I will definitely return to my favorites. I don’t want to hear anything negative or too harsh. I want my world to feel uplifting. A lot of my music comes from DJs who do Earth, Wind and Fire and Michael Jackson remakes. Music is full of nostalgia these days.
Will DJing be a big focus in 2026 or do you have any new projects coming up?
As you know, I’m a DJ. I’m very passionate about it. People think I just came up with it, but I’ve been doing it for years. Of course, I was involved in aerobics and instruction, but I just love music.
Now they (real housewives) is holding the ultimate girls’ trip to celebrate their 20th anniversary, and I’m looking forward to being a part of it. And we are working on the Bluestone Manor show scheduled for May. In November, he co-authored a book with Simon & Schuster. I know a thing or two about a thing or two. It’s really interesting, interesting, and contains great advice. There are a few other things I can’t talk about until the ink dries, but I’m really looking forward to it.
