    The Sur Dish

    Katie and Stassi on Friendship and Frank

    Katie Maloney and Stassi Schroeder discuss their lives outside of SUR, relationships, and their evolving friendship.

    Feb 11

    Stassi Schroeder

    Bravotv.com: Tell us a little bit more about what you do outside of your work at SUR?
    Stassi Schroeder: Well just to preface that, I have a column for Pandora's online luxury magazine, TheDivineAddiction.com. The column is called "Style Diaries by Stassi," and it deals with dressing on a budget. Fashion has always been a number one passion of mine, and after almost six years of living in Los Angeles, I've learned quite a bit; ESPECIALLY when it comes to budgeting. Obviously, as everyone can see, I'm a waitress, so I don't have the luxuries that other women in Hollywood have. I had to learn how to piece outfits together that were cost-effective, yet ultra-fab. Every week, Pandora and I go over ideas and we choose a topic for the week. I go through my wardrobe, Pandora's, (and sometimes even Lisa's), and I write an article on how to achieve certain looks. I put together about six outfits and then Pandora and I shoot all the wardrobe options. It's actually quite time-consuming, but I love it, and I'm so thankful to be doing it.

    Bravotv.com: What did you think of Jax and Laura-Leigh’s relationship? Did you agree with Lisa that he was trying to "send you a message"?
    SS: I honestly thought the whole thing was laughable, and it's quite hard for me to take seriously. Prior to their "coming out" as a couple, Jax had told me that if I were to leave him he'd go find one of my friends to date to throw in my face. Even though he had repeatedly told me that, I didn't think any of my friends would actually betray me like that. Up until that point, I was Laura-Leigh's only friend at work. No one at SUR liked her, and it was very uncharacteristic of me to take someone random under my wing, but I did with her. My mistake. Come to find out she was telling Jax that she had a crush on him for six months. So that means when we were getting our nails done, confiding in each other, and hanging out, she was secretly wanting to hop on my boyfriend. Laura-Leigh disturbs me. Lisa was dead-on; Jax was just using Laura-Leigh.

    I like the two Toms , kristen and Katie best. They should have had more air time. Why wasn't Schwartz shown more and why wasn't he at the reunion? More bromance.

    We really need to see these children out of their element. Like going a day without hairspray or working a job where you have to think (more then usual). Walking around an Oakland block or driving a Ford Taurus. Lisa is awfully generous for letting them still work there... they're all pretty ridiculous.

    Stassi definitely needs to grow up. I think Jax should have broken up with her instead of cheating but I have no idea how he stayed with her so long. She treated him like crap, constantly bitching , nagging and complaining-he could not do anything that would have pleased her. My husband does not like these reality shows but I was sick and asked him to lay in bed with me and watch. My husband could not believe the way everyone on this show bowed down to Stassi.He didn't even think she was attractive and thought she was a bit**. I could tell by the way Frank acted that he was a jerk as well as Stassi. Yet, for some reason I also gave her a chance to change my mind. I think she seems to be a little more humble after everyone deserted her but we will just have to see how long that lasts. I don't know where she gets her sense of entitlement from but she will have to change if she wants a real and fullfilling relationship. Relationships are not only built on trust (which she has an issue with from past experience) but also on respect. Stassi needs to realize that a relationship is not a dictatorship-ruled by Stassi , but mutual understanding and love.

    I really like Katie's personality and outlook on things. She must be an amazing friend. I adore her innocence aswell. I like Stassi's real name, it sounds unique. I enjoy watching Stassi speak her mind(although it might get her in trouble at times). I think in order for them all as in the whole 6 SUR server crew to be rekindled they need to focus on their relationships with each other. Vanderpump Rules is a great show, and in todays soceity where reality tv is king. Viewers are able to feed off the show as if they are actually there. I hope all of the SUR servers one day accomplish their goals, like fashion writer for Stassi or Music Supervison for Katie. I cant wait for season 2. Im sure there will be alot if drama, twists, and romance, the usual. -C.

    Jax has clearly never been in a healthy relationship with mutual respect if he thinks Stassi is worth a dang.  Sad.

    ....and....what is WRONG with Jax? Love must be blind if he is actually still going to even consider a relationship with Stassi. I know he's no innocent, but he can do better....

    Stassi, while quite beautiful on the outside, seems less attractive to me with each show. Her behavior is so ugly....I would be embarrassed if I was her mother. She is clearly insecure, however, the more I watch, the more I think she just may be a really mean person. Sad. I mute the TV when she comes on. I cannot stand her!

    Come on Bravo is Stassi the best you have?  OMG she is sooo annoying!  Change the channel when ever her face appears and she is ALWAYS on the screen.  What is this a promo for the STASSI SHOW?  Can not stand to watch her!

    Stassi, the bulldog that is never wrong, the queen of throwing insult and criticism toward everyone but unable to see the humongous pillar in her own eyes.  Katie and Kristen, the 2 little puppies following and taking orders from Stassi -a version of Rachel McAdam in the movie of mean girls.  I hope my daughters will know how to deal with this no-good-biatch, that is ignoring her nonsense all together. By the way, Katie and Kristen, your purpose in life is second-class citizens who take orders from the queen of mean Stassi?

    Tetreault 466 pts

     dianne.kovacs.5 Katie and Kristen it's time to move on. Both of you are intelligent enough to know that you are giving your friendship to Stassi and that she is just a taker. It makes you both look weak and I don't think either of you are. Read the blogs-who do you think is going to hire a follower??

    Please, for the love of all things holy.....get that RIDICULOUS blonde twit off of this show.  The other characters are interesting and I love watching the rest but every time Stassi comes on I have to mute the television.

    While Frank wasn't one of my favorite people on the show, I think it was hilarious that he chose not to put up with Stassi's BS. And, the look on Stassi's face when Frank walked away from her was priceless. Thank goodness it didn't take him very long to see through her. Obviously, Jax isn't capable of pulling himself away from Stassi. They truly deserve each other. I'll never feel bad for Jax when Stassi treats him like dirt. He needs to learn to be a man. Unfortunately for Stassi, it appears she is incapable of seeing her faults. Until that time, I don't think Stassi will ever be happy in a relationship. Too bad for her because she really could be a good catch. If only she could learn to be nice. If I were her mother, I would be so ashamed of how she talks to others. I hope one day she'll gow up and feel remorse about how she treated others.

     Don't forget, she is only in her early 20's....still a child.  20's today are much more immature than they were 20 or 30 years ago.

    What is wrong with Stassi?  She is just a spoiled brat that obviously has many issues that require immediate help from a well-qualified psychiatrist.  And Jax---Oh Jax---thinks he's God's gift to women (kinda like Stassi thinks she is to men) and the way he dumped Laura Leigh was just disgusting.  Stassi and Jax deserve each other and may they ride off into the sunset together far, far away from any TV.

    Does anyone else feel like this show is an od fashioned soap?? With a new veneer..of course...who knows where they found this Laura Leigh..who seems to be having a hard time operating the flipper in her mouth...she is likely going through some dental work and should have never gotten into a heated argument with Stassi and used the word "spoiled" , which came out "spooooled" .....she sounds like she is abusing helium..... this chick is a psycho and if Stassi ever let Jax share a home with her after being involved with the lunatic, she will be forever sad....i hope her mom reads these blogs on the off chance there is some reality in the show

    Just last year in Massachusetts, there was a young pretty girl , barely 17 i think, who comitted suicide after being bullied by a girl just like Stassi, a person that has NO empathy for anyone other than herself. She thinks the world is all about her and Lisa is doing her no favor by condoning her actions.Even Lisa called her a BULLY in her textings. If you haven't noticed the world is coming around everywhere, in schools, workplaces and organizations, recognizing BULLY's for who they really are.Shame on BRAVO for promoting this kind of behavior.What would Stassi say if one of her victims killed themselves? Shame on her!!!!

    FlutterBy 1158 pts

    @alancoldman Are you kidding? Stassi is the one who needs protection from the fatal attraction Laura Leigh displayed in those scenes...what show were you watching..i was frightened for Stassi.....and then her little puppy....Stassi do not under any circumstances leave that puppy alone....remember the rabbit??. It was clear LL was being way too dramatic, i get it, she is trying to get acting jobs, but sleeping with someone in a bathroom of a restaurant?? Someone who can't even give you a walk on part in a movie?? Another piece of advice ...get that voice fixed LL, you sound about 10.....it is sooo annoying......

    I don't believe Jax and Stassi are even a real couple. Outside of appearances they never mention each other in their tweets nor have I seen them post pictures of each other together except or old photos,nothing current. I think Stassi's personality is horrid. I can't imagine any woman wanting to be friends with such an annoyingly insecure girl,I say girl because that's what she is. She is mentally stunted at the age of 12 and she still thinks someone is going to buy her a pony, lol foolish child. In the words of Sweet Brown "ain't nobody got time for that". I can't believe an adult woman would seriously be going on about how she sacrificed so much of herself to be nice to a new girl at work. Wow can we submit her for a Nobel prize,she's so awesome? Awesomely full of herself and full of something that rhymes with grit.

    I could never have a friend like Stassi, who down on people like she is the queen of the universe. And regardless if a friend dates our ex...you got with Frank after you dumped Jax over a statement that you didn't even know if it was true....get over yourself...my husband and I have served our country and I hate that we protected someone as rude and narcissistic as Stassi.

    I can't believe how Stassi acts and how she refers to herself as a princess. How's this princess - get me a cup of coffee! She needs to know her place in life and that she is no better than anyone else! Very soon her looks are going to fad and she better find a personality because how she acts now will not get her very far!

    Stasis, I understand that you feel like Lara-Leigh stabbed you in the back by being your friend yet getting with Jax as soon as your back was turned, BUT...Jax is to blame as well especially if he had been telling you that he would do just that!!! And the way you talk to Lara-Leigh is disgusting on your part and yes, makes you look like a monster! She is in recovery and yes she jumped too soon with Jax but I think he used her and her illness to his advantage as you did by degrading her constantly!! Do you not remember your days of insecurities? You undoubtedly had some or you would never had a chin implant. You need to think before you speak before you become the most hated bitch on TV. I think you can be likeable but you just need to take other peoples feelings into consideration....Good Luck~

    I think she remembers her insecurities- that is why she is so mean.  She still has them. This girl has such low self esteem and self confidence. I think she puts on a show of being self confident. She is so insecure her defense is to be mean and intimidate others. It is evident in her footage when she argued with Laura Leigh.  She was soooo cruel to her and acted as if she didn't care what LL was saying, but then she turned around and had to leave work because she was so upset over what just happened.  It is all just a show on her part.  And the girl LOVES to play the victim. She has issues.

    It is so funny how people comment saying Stassi doesn't trash her friends, lmfao. That's all she does, open your eyes. She talked shit about the people that came later to her party in Vegas, then when she got in a fight with her friends she talked shit about them to her second class friends. People are such idiots open your eyes and your ears. Your just as ignorant and dumb as Stassi. She's in denial and needs to start owning up to her stuff. They all talk about each other. She and Jax belong together they both are awful with people.

    Stasis is a mean girl and is a bully. I hope she is only doing this for tv otherwise she is going to have. Hard life.. Be nicer. It only looks like you hate yourself if you are trying to make other people look that bad.

    wow, I'm disgusted at how Stassi is blaming Laura-Leigh for all her problems?! Lisa and Pandora were about to fire or give her a final warning for the fact that she is a big time SLACKER  and she blames Laura-Leigh?! And what friendship?! lmao they're such great friends that she wasn't even invited to Stassi's birthday party LMAO... and it's amazing how Lisa and Pandora fell for it... -.-

    Stassi is a little bit selfabsorbed.. but at least she's honest and not playing an angel. She is not trashing her friends, unlike Kristen! That's the person I can't stand. She is so mean, and jealous of Stassi, it's insane! She is a nightmare of a friend, someone who wants her friends to fail! ICK!

     

    Stassi makes a lot of good points.
