D-List Diaries

It's been one full year of D-List Diaries, and Nicole, Gina, and Kirsten are celebrating with an unhinged (and very on-brand) episode. First up: we finally get answers in the Connie Franklin spam call saga.The girls also spiral into a conversation about MLMs they've joined (don't judge), how easily influenced they are, and whether Gina might accidentally get recruited into another one. Plus, they talk about their codependent relationship with ChatGPT, which is apparently now Gina's dentist?To round things out, Gina shares a story about a salon client gone rogue, and Nicole proposes a genius (but probably illegal) idea: a “bad client” database for service industry workers. It's equal parts chaos and comedy—basically, classic D-List.Have questions or comments? Reach out on Instagram!

This week on D-List Diaries, Nicole and Gina sit down with Kristin Torres—owner and principal injector at Amálie Aesthetics, one of Nashville's top med spas—for an unfiltered convo about all things aesthetics. From clearing up the biggest myths around Botox to unpacking the buzz (and science) behind GLP-1 weight loss injections, Kristin shares the truth behind what's trending and what's actually effective. We also get into why choosing the right provider matters, what to ask before getting any work done, and the newest innovations hitting the med spa world, such as Sculptra and PRP injections. Whether you're a seasoned injector girlie or just curious, this is the expert-backed insight you didn't know you needed.Have questions or comments? Reach out on Instagram!

What happens when you think you're auditioning for a dating show... only to find out you're agreeing to legally marry a stranger? On this episode of D-List Diaries, Nicole and Gina sit down with Cortney Hendrix Sherman, OG bride from Season 1 of Married at First Sight, who shares the truly wild casting process — from meeting fellow bride Jamie Otis in a bathroom to trying to dodge Dr. Pepper's home visit. Cortney spills on the moment the casting team dropped the marriage bombshell, how her marriage unraveled, and why the show was way more documentary than drama-driven.Cortney also opens up about life post-divorce, reflects on how MAFS ultimately led her to the love story she was meant for, and dishes on everything from the ethics of kids on social media to her current favorite conspiracy theory (yes, it's wild). This one's part reality TV throwback, part real talk — and totally worth the listen.Have questions or comments? Reach out on Instagram!
