Orange Is the New Black Star Jackie Cruz Opens Up About Kissing Kourtney Kardashian

-

These days she’s known for her role as Flaca from Orange Is the New Black, but Jackie Cruz was once famous for something else.

The 31-year-old actress first hit our television screens when she and Kourtney Kardashian, 39, shared a steamy make-out session at a club during an episode of Kourtney & Khloe Take Miami in 2009.

Cruz recalled their rendezvous on Monday’s episode of PeopleTV’s Chatter.

When asked if she still keeps up with the Kardashians, Cruz, who took a sip of her whiskey cocktail before answering, explained, “I honestly don’t keep up because I don’t have time.”

“I’m trying to work, do my own thing,” Cruz continued.

However, when it comes to Kourtney, there are no hard feelings. “I love Kourtney, she’s always — when we worked together she was a sweetheart.”

“She continues to be a sweetheart. I just haven’t — we haven’t reconnected, but call me girl,” Cruz added.

In addition to opening up about her kiss with Kourtney, Cruz also shared details about season 6 of OITNB.

“I don’t have my partner in crime right now,” Cruz said in reference to Flaca’s best friend Maritza, played by Diane Guerrero, 32.

In the latest season of the hit Netflix show, the ladies of Litchfield are separated from one another and forced to adjust to life in maximum security prison.

“So, I’m exploring new things, and I believe Flaca always tries to find the light even in the darkest place,” Cruz explained.

“She does, and you get to see that journey, and I’m just really happy you get to see a different side of Flaca,” she added.

The Circle: Meet the Real "Emily" - aka Jack's Catfish Persona

-

A 20-year-old astrophysics and economics student from New Haven, CT, Jack Atkins made quite the first impression in The Circle season two premiere. He tells viewers straight off, "I'm honestly down to go down as the biggest villain in Circle history. I don't really care." I mean, an intro package doesn't get much better than that. Kudos, Jack! Or shall we say . . . Emily? In the first episode, we learn Jack is here to play a "very strategic, manipulative, cutthroat game." Being a college student, Jack says he's a self-declared nerd but with a wild, goofy side. Nervous his authentic personality (and BDE) might cost him the $100,000 prize, he enters The Circle group chat as Emily, a girly girl from the Windy City, who also happens to be a close friend of his IRL. Jack explains in his confessional that he wants fellow competitors to look at his profile and go "'That's a face I can trust.'" "When it comes to strategy ther...

What Selling Tampa Tells Us About Diversity in Real Estate and Selling Sunset

-

When it comes to reality TV on Netflix, Selling Sunset is prime real estate (pun intended). Season four dropped on Nov. 24 , and a brand-new spinoff, Selling Tampa , followed on Dec. 15. Unlike Selling Sunset , which follows the drama behind the elite real estate brokerage firm The Oppenheim Group , Selling Tampa spotlights a Florida-based, women-led, Black-owned business, Allure Realty. The show adds much-needed representation to Netflix's real estate reality TV lineup. But Selling Tampa 's creation compels us to take a hard look at Selling Sunset and the representation among its agents in an industry that lacks diversity. In its first season, the cast of Selling Sunset was all white. Agents like Amanza Smith (a mixed-race Black woman) and Vanessa Villela (who is Mexican) joined The Oppenheim Group in seasons two and four, respectively, but most of the nine women dishing the drama on screen on Selling Sunset remain white. Looking at the numbers, this isn't too far ...
