Lawson was born in California.
We were living there, and then Jeff got a job out here in Denver, Colorado.
So we’re living in Colorado now, and I absolutely love it.

I’m a stay-at-home mom, but I also get to create content, which I love.
I’ve worked with Bondi Boost, and all these other skincare and haircare products.
If it wasn’t forBig Brother, I’d have no followers.

It’s nice that I have those loyal followers and that people even still care.
Besides winning, what is your proudest moment from playingBig Brother?
When I walked in, I was like, “I’m going to be a loyal person.
I’m going to play an honest game.”
That’s how I am in real life.
I’m loyal to all my friends and I’m honest.
And that is something I’m proud of, because reality TV could really destroy you.
A lot of younger people don’t know that.
So I’m proud that I just stuck to my morals and I stuck to who I am.
So those are not my proudest moments.
What are your thoughts about how you were portrayed on the data pipe episodes of the show?
I’ve always been dingy, but I’m goofy.
I was only 22-years-old, and it’s so different now that I’m older.
People probably still think of me as the person that can’t tell time.
And I won those last challenges when I needed to.
And I pulled it out and then I won.
What are your feelings on the Diary Room and the interviews you would do in there?
I loved the Diary Room.
And they let you get whatever you gotta out.
So I personally liked going in the Diary Room.
You’re like, “I want to get out of this house!”
But whenever you go in there, it’s like, “Okay.
What was it like coming back to regular society after being in the house?
Was there culture shock or an adjustment coming back?
I was in the house 72 days.
And when I got out, you’re used to every morning having to put a mic pack on.
I’ve got to have my mic pack on.”
And then I would just be like, “What am I doing?
What am I saying?”
And then I’m like, “That’s my family!
What am I doing?”
No, I don’t have any regrets.
Whom do you still talk, text, or email with the most from your seasons?
I pretty much keep up with everyone on social media.
That’s kind of my way to see what everyone’s doing.
There’s a young boy in my neighborhood and Derrick is his favorite player.
And Derrick was so sweet.
He got on the phone with him and talked to him.
Or I’ll comment on people’s Instagram, things like that.
Everybody’s a mom now.
And I love watchingBig Brotheras a fan now.
I love sitting at home, watching it, and not being in that house.
I do get nervous.
So I have enjoyed every season.
Who’s one player from anotherBig Brotherseason you wish you could have played with or against and why?
I feel like Derrick, because Derrick’s the best player.
He made it look so easy, and it’s not an easy game.
Derrick never got in arguments with anybody.
He played it cool.
Dan’s such a good player.
I got to play with Rachel and Dani, and they were I think the best female players.
What did you do with your prize money from winning the game?
Before I left forBig Brother, I did not think I was going to win.
And I don’t know if she believed me, and I didn’t even think I would win.
But when I got the money, I bought her a home and she still lives there today.
You have cushion.”
And he goes, “Do not go and buy a rich man’s car.”
Because I used to joke around and say, “Oh, I want a Range Rover.”
And he was like, “Don’t go buy a rich man’s car.
Just know you have cushion right now, and don’t blow it on materialistic things.”
And it was the best advice I ever got.
When I got back home, I kept my 2003 Honda Civic.
My parents got it for me when I was 17, and it was an old car.
Then I’d pull up in my Honda Civic.
Finally, would you play again if asked?
No, I would never do it again.
I am so appreciative of the opportunity.
I’m appreciative that I’ve had a positive experience withBig Brother.
It changed my life, and I am so thankful for that.
And I would not want to share one bathroom with 12 people.
I’ve done it twice.
If you keep going back, it makes it even harder for you to come back and win.
