$360k in one month?! Netflix star Francesca Farago dives into the SHOCKING #'s behind her career

This week, Jason is joined by Netflix reality TV star turned successful influencer, entrepreneur and business owner, Francesca Farago!
Francesca gained notoriety after being tagged as one of the top personalities of Netflix’s inaugural season of Too Hot to Handle in 2020. She then continued her run in Netflix reality TV with stints on Love is Blind, After the Altar, and Perfect Match. After her time on TV, Francesca pivoted her career to a business owner after launching her own line of sustainable and environmentally friendly swimwear called Farago the Label. The brand offers swimsuits and bikinis that are not only cruelty free, but also 100 recyclable and biodegradable.
Francesca gives insight to Too Hot to Handle, how the show being pushed and released during COVID was extremely beneficial, what life was like prior to reality TV working in bottle service and influencing, why she uses her mom’s last name instead of her legal last name, what she would be doing if she wasn’t in reality TV, how a boring environment pushed to her create great TV by creating drama, doing career jujitsu after a bad edit on Perfect Match, how defusing comments instead of getting defensive works in her favor, and her relationships (or lack thereof) with her former castmates. Francesca also reveals when she started her swimwear company, who is involved in her company, the importance of being inclusive for every body type, what she considers when negotiating rates for reality shows, how she and Jesse handle money as a couple, her IVF journey, and what she has learned during the renovation of her home. Why has Francesca lied about her age before? Which celebrity reached out to her that was a “pinch me” moment? Does she have investors in Farago the Label? What reality shows is she interested in joining down the line? Would she ever be open to having her own reality show?
Francesca reveals all that and so much more in another episode you can’t afford to miss!

Great timing for her during covid, she was clearly the star of the show, it was the number one show on Netflix, and gained 4 milliion followers in a few months.. wow

[@BrandNameVegan]

So glad that she highlighted the fear that women live with when she was unsure of the Netflix deal and if it was legit. The fear of being kidnapped in that situation is SO valid and comes from growing up as a woman, period. Unfortunately men will never understand this and the way that Jason asked this question showed the oblivion of never having been put in dangerous situations and threatened by men time and time again. Thank you for speaking on this 🙏🏼

[@jessicacorley]

Great interview and interview questions!!

[@breanaparis7712]

I remember first seeing her on LIB and causing some drama between GG and her ex & I didn’t like her bc I really liked GG. Now hearing her transparency & tactful strategy almost as a producer on her first ever show THTH is impressive! Anyone who is trolling her is probably just jealous of her success. Kudos to her for keeping it real & great interview

[@maybeme94]

Fantastic guest…and Jason, your interview style is totally on it! I’ve seen Francesca on those shows and it’s very cool to hear her perspective and how she has grown her career. It’s great that she’s managing her money and planning her future. Good luck to all. Great show!

[@jodien5800]

I admire her so much ❤ What a $$ money making machine. Wish I was 10% of her savvy.

[@Brandimom]

Where is her fiancé at??? They’re looking over at someone and talking but where is “he”??? I can’t hear or see him lol so confused!

[@BlankuhFlor]

You can't be leveeing the fun stuff out! SO DID YOU GO TO THE STRIP CLUB??

[@lamadreearth3795]

I’ve never heard a bikini be called “cruelty free” LOL!!! Green washing galore, how sad, that brand is not sustainable.

[@Francesca.farago]

🥹🥹🙏🏽🙏🏽😍😍

[@shaunduquette5992]

wrong,you were considered the success of the season. That is why people followed you.

[@harrylederman1679]

I normally can watch these but I can't watch Francesca because she is so incredibly fake and I can't forgive
