00:00Okay, we talked about this several weeks ago.
00:08It was a Bridgerton-themed event in Detroit that did not live up to expectations.
00:18It was terrible.
00:20People were expecting to be transported to the land of Bridgerton
00:23with horseback rides and carriages and fancy dinners and tea.
00:30Funny thing about this period of time nobody talked about it,
00:32they were dumping buckets of crap out of them.
00:34Exactly.
00:35Do that.
00:36Set that up.
00:37A more realistic Bridgerton.
00:39Everybody had lice.
00:41Bring up your dick!
00:43When they turned up, it was a pretty empty banquet hall.
00:47Yeah.
00:47With sad chicken and green beans.
00:50They got ripped off.
00:51And lots of people complained about the fact that it did not at all live up to expectations.
00:56Well, who would have seen this coming?
00:58The woman that planned it in Detroit says she's been getting death threats.
01:02She had to move out of her house.
01:04Like, it has gone nuts because it has gone global of how bad it was.
01:10Oh, yeah.
01:11Here's her side of the story now from Fox 2 News.
01:14The first week was the worst week.
01:16Detroit event planner Chelsea Beard breaks her silence about the now infamous Bridgerton ball event.
01:21They went viral for all the wrong reasons.
01:24It led to her getting death threats and having to move out of her own home.
01:28It literally went global.
01:32I've never seen anything like it.
01:34And it was a lot to deal with.
01:37At what point did you tell yourself that you had to get up and get back out there?
01:41After about five days, like, I literally wasn't eating or anything and just isolated.
01:51On September 22nd, Beard's then company Uncle and Me LLC hosted the ball at the Harmony Club in Detroit.
01:58You had a lot of people that showed up to this and they were dressed.
02:03Yes, beautiful, beautiful people.
02:04I mean, they dress amazing.
02:07They showed up and they showed out.
02:09When did you find out that not everyone had the best time?
02:14I found that out once, like, it started getting close to the event and we wasn't finished putting up the decorations.
02:23And I'm like, oh, oh, my gosh.
02:26Some of the decisions that were made on that night, people didn't feel like they were in theme with the Bridgerton ball.
02:32Can you speak on those decisions?
02:34Yes, Courtney, you know, she, Courtney is a professional.
02:40She's a professional dancer, acrobat, airless.
02:44And I entrusted someone from my camp to communicate with her for what she needed to do for that night.
02:53It's a lady on a stripper pole doing stripper dances.
02:55So it was a miscommunication on our end with her.
03:00It is any fault of hers.
03:02Beard says a big problem was switching venues last minute due to capacity issues.
03:07And I basically went from a venue where I had everything and we had planned everything to a venue that had nothing.
03:15If I could go back to it, I would have pushed it out further.
03:20I think event planning is for her.
03:22Not at all.
03:23I don't think she needs to find another thing to do.
03:26She has very low energy, too, for an event planner.
03:29Yeah.
03:30Norm, yeah.
03:31I guess we got to put this backdrop up.
03:36Listen, I don't know anything about Bridgerton.
03:37Did someone get the stripper?
03:38Did someone tell the stripper?
03:40I don't know anything about it.
03:42Anyone get the chicken?
03:43Do we have the chicken and green beans?
03:45Paper plates.
03:46Do we get the paper plates?
03:47I just put it in a bowl.
03:49That event looked like there was a Bridgerton event outside somewhere that everybody was at before.
03:55And it rained or something.
03:56Yeah.
03:56And then they all had to get inside.
03:58Right.
03:59Like I said, I don't know anything about Bridgerton.
04:01I don't know the time period, really, that it's in.
04:03It looks like old school.
04:07You had to have a real band.
04:09You had to have, like...
04:11No, none of it made sense.
04:12A DJ, a stripper.
04:13No.
04:14Like, none of it.
04:14You should have had, like, a band.
04:16You should have had entertainment.
04:17Probably, like, people dressed up like that dancing or whatever.
04:20Right.
04:20Something.
04:21Exactly.
04:22None of it lined up.
04:22Like, the same thing, like, at your wedding.
04:24Like, someone ringing bells and someone doing all that stuff.
04:27Like, oh, look how fancy it is here.
04:29You just fake fancy.
04:31It didn't look...
04:32They didn't fake fancy.
04:33There was plastic cups with Kool-Aid.
04:36Yeah.
04:37One green backdrop and a DJ and a stripper.
04:41Yeah, Andy went to a fancier event over the last weekend.
04:43Yes, 100%.
04:44Yes, there was a xylophone there.
04:46They told you when the...
04:47A xylophone.
04:48That was how fancy it was.
04:49I was sitting there in my suit and then all of a sudden this dude starts walking around going...
04:52Dooo.
04:54Dooo.
04:55Dooo.
04:56And I'm, like, looking around and I'm, like, nobody's really reacting to this.
04:59Is this normal?
05:00Is this like that's just soothing to the rich people?
05:02Yeah.
05:02Because Andy was at the real life.
05:03Yeah, he was at the real party.
05:05Yeah, I did a suit.
05:06I learned so much about suits.
05:07Yeah.
05:08I got my suit and the white part of my shirt came out of the sleeve, right?
05:12Oh, yeah.
05:12And I started freaking out and I'm, like, I got ripped off!
05:14Look at this!
05:15No!
05:15I'm, like, it doesn't fit!
05:16No.
05:16That's perfect.
05:17That's right.
05:18And I looked it up and I'm, like, that's how it's supposed to be.
05:19Yes!
05:20You're supposed to show.
05:20Little tiny bit.
05:21I'm, like, that's how it's supposed to be.
05:23Little tiny bit.
05:24Yeah, the xylophone I had to ask when I was, like, excuse me, I was, like, why does that
05:27man play the four-bar xylophone?
05:30And they were, like, that's the dinner bells.
05:33And I was, like, oh!
05:35Well, thank you!
05:36They involved me!
05:36Yes, of course!
05:37Well, then I think everybody thought I was, like, an issue because I had to plug in, like,
05:41my vape, you know?
05:42Oh, so, like, I had to...
05:44Well, Andy goes to a bowl!
05:48Anyone got a place to plug in my vape?
05:50It's super fancy and I was being pure trash, right?
05:52I'm, like, I got to plug this bad boy in.
05:54Got an addiction rolling.
05:56No matter how fancy John Wick I look right now.
05:59Yeah, yeah, yeah.
06:00I'm, like, I need to plug this bad boy in.
06:02What do I do?
06:03Some dessert.
06:04And the staff at this place, it was so fancy.
06:06Like, I don't think they're supposed to, like, fraternize with people.
06:09I was, like, excuse me!
06:11And they're, like, ah!
06:12Don't look at me!
06:13Oh, God!
06:14Okay, what do you need?
06:15I'm, like, I got to plug in my vape because I'm trash.
06:18And then I was, like, can I plug it in there?
06:21They're, like, probably not there.
06:22The DJ will be upset.
06:24Oh, yeah.
06:25So then the DJ comes over and talks to me about it.
06:27And then my girlfriend's, like, what are you, picking a song?
06:30What the hell are you talking to the DJ for 10 minutes for?
06:33I'm, like, get a plug in my vape!
06:34Pure trash!
06:35Pure trash at a fancy event!
06:37What did you think?
06:38Yeah, come on.
06:39You know, I got the suit.
06:41What else do you want from me?
06:42Yeah.
06:43Yeah.
06:44But I was, I was, like, I followed that xylophone.
06:46Because the dead look in his eyes as he did it was scary to me.
06:49I was, like, I was, like, I think they're going to eat us!
06:52I was, like, I think the rich people are going to close the doors and they're going to eat us right now!
06:56Close the doors!
06:57I was, like, I'm pretty sure that's what that means!
06:59We've got one!
07:00Is nobody else concerned?
07:02Is nobody else freaking out?
07:04There's a man with a four-bar xylophone wandering around right now.
07:08We found a man who plugged, I would, I'm, I'm trying to deal with this.
07:13A man has plugged in a vape.
07:15Excuse me!
07:16It's time to eat him.
07:18Oh, no, they're mad at me about the vape!
07:21Oh, God!
07:22Lord Greenbeam to the dining room!
07:24Like, oh, no!
07:25And I met, uh, I was outside and I met, I met a couple of listeners of the show.
07:29This guy was, like, looking at me, like, at the wedding for a while and I was, like, hmm.
07:33And then I go outside and he comes up to me and he's, like, hey, uh, if I say balls to you, that mean anything?
07:40And I'm, like, yep, that's me!
07:43I'm, like, you found the leprechaun, no pot of wine.
07:47Nope.
07:48Oh, my God, that's amazing.
07:49So funny.
07:50I love it.
07:51I don't believe I've ever heard this as a signal to, like, that dinner is ready.
07:55It was too fancy for me.
07:57That's exactly how it was, too.
07:59And I was, like, why is everybody, I was, like, I was, like, this is how they do it!
08:02I was, like, they're going to gas us or something!
08:04I was, like, something crazy is about to happen!
08:06Yep.
08:07Yep.
08:08All your blood's going to be drained.
08:10Oh, yeah.
08:11I was, like, I'm going to take a kidney or something!
08:14What does that bell mean?
08:16I'm, like, you can't be doing that!
08:18You're in the middle of an iced tea movie all of a sudden.
08:20I was, like, this is craziness!
08:22They take you, you're on the run, you've got to escape.
08:24That's the dinner bell, sir.
08:25The dinner bell.
08:26Oh!
08:26Oh!
08:27You always have to...
08:28So go upstairs, then?
08:29Yeah.
08:30Okay, perfect.
08:31You always have to make sure if you're at one of these things, you then say,
08:34Good, I was testing you!
08:35Yes, I just wanted to see.
08:36To see if you were what we were going to eat tonight.
08:38To see if you even knew what that was.
08:39Yeah, exactly.
08:40You have to.
08:41And where do I plug in my face?
08:43Cover your track.
08:44I plug in my face.
08:44I got to plug in my face.
08:45Yeah, I did.
08:46I made a scene.
08:49That's amazing.
08:49I'm highly addicted to it.
08:51I'm like, I'm sorry, everyone!
08:53Yep.
08:54I would have loved it if the music, like, stop, because Andy unplugged something to plug in.
08:57Yes!
08:58Yes!
08:58No, I was scared of that.
08:59Like, a shock.
09:00Everything.
09:01Like, I was up there and everybody was like, new guy's doing something.
09:06You know?
09:07Because I'm, like, talking frantically to people, you know?
09:09And they're just like, this guy, he's got problems, though.
09:11Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
