Bravotv.com: Give us a quick primer, how long have you worked at SUR? How did you end up there?
Stassi Schroeder: I've been working at SUR for three years now. When I was still in school, I had a few friends who worked there, so I would spend my weekend nights coming in for drinks to pay them visits. After a while I realized that I was coming there so much that I may as well start working there, and voila!
Bravotv.com: Why do you have such a problem with Scheana? What about her rubs you the wrong way? Did you feel sympathetic for her after watching her confrontation with Brandi?
SS: I'm someone who takes relationships and marriage very seriously. I've been cheated on, so when I hear about other girls who have been "the other woman" in situations, I react very strongly. I know what it feels like to be in that situation, and it is the most heartbreaking feeling. I'm very protective of my friends and my relationships and will stop at nothing to make sure no one hurts them. After seeing Scheana confront Brandi, it wasn't sympathy that I felt for Scheana, it was respect. It was very brave of her to do and I believe that it was a huge step that shows she truly is sorry and is trying to do the right thing.
Bravotv.com: What did you think of Lisa's comments about your behavior? Do you think you were out-of-line at work?
SS: I'm the first to admit that I'm a bit of a handful to deal with. I probably should find that filter that's lost somewhere inside me, haha. I was out-of-line, and I've apologized since. Luckily, I have a very close relationship with Lisa. She's kind of like a mom to me; she gets me. I think she is one of those few people who understands me, and has always looked out for me. She's saved my ass many many times, and I'm thankful for that. She still busts my bum and gives me a hard time, but it's always warranted.
Bravotv.com: Tell us a little more about your relationship at Jax at that time? Were you, as he described you, "a jealous girlfriend"?
SS: Jax and I obviously weren't doing very well at that time. And after watching the first episode and seeing him hit on the server at The Parlor, I think my insecurities were justified. I wasn't feeling secure in my relationship, so that in turn made me act jealous. I'm not a jealous person, but Jax wasn't making me feel assured or stable in our relationship, so I think it's only natural for me to act out and get jealous.
Bravotv.com: What would your dream career look like?
SS: I've wanted to write about fashion for as long as I could remember. I already have a fashion column online for Lisa and Pandora's online magazine, TheDivineAddiction.com. I just want to keep moving up in the fashion industry; write my own style book, be a fashion commentator. . .you know conquer the world (of fashion, that is).
On the othr hand, about Stassi - I did't like that she as laughing at Kristen when kristen met the girl her boyfriend Tom had slept with. Kristen was obviously feeling sick to her stomach to meet the girl - which I can completely understand. But, Stassi yells across the room "are you the girl that slept with tom Stoval?" And the girl just said "It was a long time ago". There is Stassi laughing about it, but then gets pissed when the girls don't back her on her own boyfried drama. I am not sure I believe that Jax got some girl pregnant? Frank will say anything to get one over on Jax and have Stassi. not liking Frank at all - waaaayyy too shady!!!
Wow! Jax is such a hottie! How tall is he? LOL. All I have to say about last night, is that all the young people watching Jersey Shore on MTV, need to tune into Vanderpumup Rules - on BravoTV.. Enough of Snooki falling down drunk and getting arrested on the beach! This is waaaay more eventful and exciting!! Kinda an upscale version of Jersey Shore, haha. Almost started feeling sorry for Stassi last night, miniscule, but just a bit!
Jax, I have a feeling that Lisa was going to fire you but changed her mind... It would be a big mistake. A clue everyone tunes in to watch you!!!! I am not just saying that because your incredibly hot either. It is the way you have about you. I am so glad that you and Stassi broke up. Now you can get a real woman (that you deserve) don't sell yourself short because a psycho points out to you that you have some flaws. You are genuine with yourself a qualiy not very many have certainly not Stassi, you can't depend on someone else for your happiness or blame somone else for your feelings. It seems she has a severe mental illness and is going untreated. I hope they fire her and get her off the show. She brings such a trashy element to the show that is truly unbearable to watch. Jax, Scheana is really sweet and hot too. Hmmm you ever think about it? Stassi needs to go back to wherever she came from Missississippi or wherever it is and let her family take care of her and get her the help she needs. It is really cruel watching Bravo put her on TV people are making fun of her and it really isn't fair to Stassi I doubt she even recognizes that she has a mental illness. But Jax stay on this show or the ratings will drop to nothing (which will happen anyway if Stassi continues to be on the show). I pray you keep her out of your life so you can move on. The world needs more Jax!!!!! I say Jax TV...lol. Thanks Jax, I hope I can continue to watch you on the show. That includes some of the other people as well so they can use this show as a springboard for success... As soon as Stassi is gone!!!! YAY!!!
I looove, love love Lisa. Also that she has a soft side! But that kind of kindness is wasted on Stassi!! Anyone else would have fired her a long time ago!
Kristin: Been a waitress for 5 1/2 years? I think you will be a waitress for the rest of your life. Don't quit the day job. You are not a star!
Wow. I can't believe Jax dated Stassi for 2 years. I have a headache after listening to her whine for 1 hour! So tired of her shouting "I don't care!" when someone is trying to have a mature conversation with her. Also need her to stop telling everyone to "grow up" while she's having a temper tantrum that would shame a 2 year-old.
Stassi - I feel so sorry for you. You're so unhappy. And you're so sure the world is wrong and that everyone needs to know you're right (which you're not). When I see someone like you who is so judgemental all I can see is how much you hate yourself. It's evident that you truly do - and frankly I can see why. Nonetheless, please try to forgive yourself and be gentler with yourself and you just might find that you have some tolerance for the world that you live in.
Otherwise I recommend climbing under a rock and staying there - you'll be happier than out in the world. So will we. Please don't bring your hate. Good luck.
i.indie You hit the nail on the head!
I finally watched the first show and I see Stassi is a hot mess. I cannot believe she is a friend of Pandora. Stassi had some serious issues. When she said she was the "devil" although I believe she was only kidding, but really she was definitely on point. Although she is a pretty female, she has an evil spirit which makes her look very extremely ugly. I hope Lisa can talk to her and help her see her evil ways or if not she needs to fire her azz.
Timolyn
Right?!? Pandora was so sweet and classy. Guess Stassi didn't get those things at her all girls school. She talks like she thinks she is classy - but cannot pull it off!! Lisa's business partner wants to fire Stassi - but Lisa keeps giving her a pass. I don't Stassi deserves that kind of loyalty from Lisa!
Lisa, you need to get rid of Stassi. I don't think she can be a friend to anyone. She has a lot
of issues and one of them, is she is very insecure. It is none of her business about anyones
life that she works with. Who does she think she is?
Pandora needs to find a new friend.
@catlady1128 Gives us an idea of what Pandy is probably like as well....you can always judge a person by the friends they keep...so telling...lol
FlutterBy I have to wonder if they are still good friends after seeing her behavior and just the glimpses we have caught of Pandora on RHBH. Maybe they were childhood friends that have grown apart.
@catlady1128 Gives us an idea of what Pandy is probably like as well....you can always judge a person by the friends they keep...so telling...lol
I have to say that watching Stassi was pretty bad she is not a nice person at all. She thinks of herself as a princess us not so much. Jax why would you stay with a brat you don't respect or get along with very well? You could do so much better and find someone to actually like. Also the way she treated and talked about Scheana was aweful and uncalled for why would Lisa let something like that go on in her place of business? Very childess to say the least. The whole restaurant we were at watching said to get rid of her. Lisa she is going to bring your business down..
Was waiting to see more of Lisa, love her. Didnt know was going to watch young celebrity wanna bees. The guys are pretty boy feminine, ugh, not my taste and the theres bully Stassi and a public known home wrecker, Scheana, trying to be a singer. When she was singing that's when I changed channel. Couldn't take it. This show is not about Lisa :(
I honestly can't watch this show. Stassi is such a brat- it makes the show unwatchable. She may be pretty in the outside but she is ugly on the inside. Treating someone like shit at your JOB because you don't like what she does in her personal life is so unprofessional, and Lisa should know better. Tried it..... Won't watch it. She is as bad as Faye Resnick.
When Kristen chimes in saying “everyone who works here is good looking” thought I was going to barf. She is the most unattractive of all the women. She has nice figure but with all the beautiful women in Hollywood these are the best looking… I think not!!!
@ddbird2l I agree, that was pretty funny
ddbird2l
Yeah! I thought this girls can't even comb her hair. To me she is just average in looks, but she does have a big ego!
ddbird2l I know!
I understand that Bravo will want Lisa to keep Stassi because of the drama but serioulsy she is such a bitch I will have to not watch anymore. She is going to ruin the reputation of Sur and I Love Lisa so I hate to see that happen. If Stassi were gone I think her business would go much more smoothly
Stassi needs to be fired! She isn't all that and she sure thinks she is! I am surprised that Lisa would even put up with her! She is horrible and really I think I would not go into the restaurant just based on that witch working there! Lisa get rid of that that one. She needs to be a nicer person. She isn't doing your business any justice. She brings joy to no one! very sad. I'm kinda dissappointed in Lisa that she would employee this girl and than reward her for bad behavior! Rethinking now.... all i can say is WOW!
I agree. Lisa does need to fire Stassi, bad for business and not fair to the other employees she splits her tips with. I feel people who watch the show and goes to that restaurant and has Stassi for a server will not be tipping. Therefore, if Stassi does not make any tips she will be piggy banking from the other servers and thats not cool at all.
Timolyn As much as Stassi was arguing to keep sharing tips and from the look Lisa gave her when she was going over who brought in the most and the least, I would say Stassi is already being carried by the others. With her attitude I doubt she could make it on her own.
thumbs up with your comment.
Stassi just needs to be fired. She doesn't do her job, or help anyone do their job either. She is not a good person. She has been around ALOT, just with the men she works with. Then she has the nerve to say something rude and embarrassing to the young girl who made the mistake of going out with Brandy's hubby, at the time. Brandy took it well and treated the girl with respect. Stassi acts like she never made a mistake in her life. Also there is no way she is a decendant of any kjind of princess, She is a looser. Hopefully they will get rid of her like they did Margo!!!
Stassi, your interview is disengenuous. Sucking up to Lisa will not help you and its terribly transparent as you speak your "never wrong" mind on everything else. I'm sure you'll see how you're being received and iun to Lisa outraged, but it's out of her hands, the editors are in charge and they're just showing what you've said. You're just plain mean. People like that do not make it. Even if you try faking it now. Wow. And the girl that said 'we're all attractive, sorry" Umm, I can't even write it. Enough said.
Look I understand that Lisa feels a little allegiance to the bratty child Stassi but business is business. But Stassi is very attractive on her outside appearance she is only out for Stassi. Everything else comes second to her. She is mean spirited, manipulative and quite frankly a true definition of a bully. Lisa, how can you let her act that way in your restaurant. She isn't that attractive to keep around. Los Angeles is full of aesthetically beautiful people. Stassi needs to taste her own medicine. What Scheanna did was wrong but Stassi hasn't graduated high school yet. Anyonw involved with Stassi should watch out, because the girl is not right mentally.
Kristen: You fit in perfectly with this group, ys I agree you seem to have a good relationship with your boyfriend, and here is a rule, if he has not asked you or married U within 5 years he will never, so as a friend that is good but if U want more, U woman are in control in every relationship so get the ball rolling and see what base he throws to. Hunter
Scheana-U R a woman and as such responsible for your behavior, U R accountable, whether U new or not, maybe in the beginning U did not know for Brandis' husband your x-lover is a sex addict alleged but after a time when U did know, it was your responsibility to have found out and break off the relationship, the rule is if he is cheating with you , that he is going to cheat on you. I do feel that Stassi was out of line, but she is adolescent like in her behavior and is stuck on the premise that what is her is always her and nobody can get inside unless she invites them. Congrats of your boyfriend. Looking forward to seeing how you respond in this immature atmosphere. Hunter
Jax-my man woman are in control anyway but U need to take a stand and hold your ground, Stassi is a social dominatrix by her behavior, she needs someone to show her she is a bully at the least and a social terror at the most. You definitely do not need an anchor around your neck. Just find someone who is for and not against you.
Lisa-consummate manager, what a job, I would be firing everyone and starting a new, even if I had to shut down, to many prima donnas.
Stassi-Sweetheart, pretty but insubordinate and nasty to her fellow worker, she needs to grow up and learn to get along.
Good grief, what a nasty little child Stassi is. I hate to see her make Lisa look bad.
They have obviously run out of show ideas because this is beyond stupid. Wanna
be actors...who gives a crap.
There's a reason every single boyfriend you've ever had has cheated on you Stassi... it's you! You're clearly the problem. You're exhausting and full of drama. Get your shit together before you even think about starting a life with someone else.
I want to see Scheana steal Jax from Stassi. She deserves it and it would make for great watching
montana2298 LOL , you got that right, puuuuuurrrrrrrrrfect payback,
Please Please get rid of Tom. The guy is a total knob.
@montana2298 Which Tom?
Vanderpump Rules actually can be fun to watch with just two simple adjustments: Getting rid of the arrogant Stassi and Scheana Marie. Once they are gone this show may have a good chance.
Its funny how Stassi thinks she is so high class when you are actually just a waitress and want to get famous through going in a reality show...
Was shocked to hear she is friends with Pandora :S
@melody630 .. Lol!!
melody630 That is surprising, makes you want to take a closer look at Pandora
Over all a bunch of young punks taking over a town that isn't yours. I love it! Just don't keep making yourselves look bad with the we are so hot, we have the best job, everyone wants to be us stuff. People like to look up but not to see a shoe coming down in their face.
jennifer.zelinski.77 Why would anyone want to be them, seems like they are scraping the bottom of the barrel. There are lots so lovely young people out there who don't think they are Gods gift to the world. They really need to get over themselves....
@jennifer.zelinski.77 Love that comparison
You make it impossible to like anything about you, and you give strong women a bad name.





Why does everyone let Stassi walk all over them? Who talks to people that way? Why doesn't anyone mention how disrespectful and selfish she acts towards her 'friends'?
