My idols are Paris Hilton and Marilyn Monroe.
I love Paris Hilton because of her looks
and just how her life is
and it's really interesting
and I would wanna live a life like that.
I like her style, before she was more like
a sexual personality and now she's more like classy.
Before she was a party girl.
All the guys like Paris Hilton
and I feel like she is the ultimate woman.
Like you know the living Barbie.
Marilyn Monroe is like my role model
because I would say it's like a soul
and a mind thing with her.
I want my middle name to be legally changed to Monroe.
I want it to be Diamond Monroe.
Well Christie says taking care of her daughter Diamond
has led to her being homeless, broke,
and emotionally destroyed.
She says she tries to stand up to Diamond's expensive
and frivolous demands,
but admits she always gives in.
I never worked a day in my life.
I was never stable, I was always moving all over the place.
So I really couldn't get a job.
I believe she's never had a job
because she's had such a hard life.
I never had to work because everything was given to me.
Diamond believes what's hers is hers,
and what's mine is hers.
She thinks just because I brought her into this world,
I need to take care of her for the rest of her life.
I end up giving Diamond half of the money I make
every time I get paid, just to make sure
she's got food, clothes, her make-up.
If it's Diamond's last dollar or my last dollar,
she will insist on spending it on her nails, on her hair.
She only helps me out very minimally,
only if I need something.
She doesn't really help me out that much.
I have put over a thousand miles on my car
in like two weeks.
When I talk to her about money and saving money she says,
I live day to day, so she has no value
or appreciation for money.
I do tell her no.
But I do give in because I feel bad.
Oh my God I wish I could talk faster.
(roaring laughter)
You know first off, you're talking about Paris Hilton
being glamorous, and you know party girl
and all that kinda stuff.
I know Paris, Robin and I have known her for years
and let me tell you she's very smart,
two, she works very hard.
If that's your role model you would have a job.
(roaring laughter)
(cheerful applause)
And so I'll come back to that.
(hushed laughter)
Did you notice that she said you seldom give her anything?
I heard that.
Let's say you've given her $25,000
in the last year or two.
If it made absolutely no difference,
wouldn't you rather have that 25,000 back?
Yeah.
And if it actually hurt the situation,
then wouldn't you really have that $25,000 back?
Yes. How would you feel right now
if all of a sudden you reached into your pocket
and there was $25,000 in there?
And your daughter was not worse off.
But I made a list of the way you enable her.
Like number one you stopped living with your boyfriend
to live with Diamond in the car,
because he has some logic about him,
and says no I'm not gonna let her live here
and not contribute anything.
You give her half your paycheck each month,
she says oh she gives me a little here and there.
You're broke yet you buy nice vegan food,
you buy her cosmetics, make-up, hair products $80 shampoo.
$80 dollar shampoo?
I mean who does such a thing?
You pay $70, well of course I wouldn't.
(roaring laughter)
You pay $70 a week for modeling classes.
You've never made her get a job.
You've never had a job?
No. (guiltily laughing)
(roaring laughter)
Yeah.
Why not?
Never needed one I guess.
(roaring laughter)
Why have you never had a job?
Never needed one, she gets half your money.
