I feel the same way about being nice not a b**ch cause you are correct honey is sweet and vinegar is sour. And who tf wants sour. Keep being you Paul cause you are an amazing young man and am so proud that you stayed true to you and didn't let the limelight change you. Stay strong, stay real and stay you.

    Sharon you're such a queen for this! Love hearing from Paul - the Armenian plight is so intertwined and similar to that of the Assyrian people and we don't get many opportunities for outlets to hear about our personal stories. Furthermore, our people are not often afforded representation that doesn't fit within the confines of the status quo so Paul holds an extra special place in my heart. Being able to marry that with my love for this stupid show means way more than it seems. You continue to deliver and as Paul said - thank you for your persistence and perseverance! This interview is a must watch for anyone in the fandom that engages in discourse on socials

    BB needs to have a "Legends" season, 1 month long, and it should have all of the best players to have never won including Paul, Vanessa, Danielle Reyes, James (S6&7), Janelle, Britney (S12&14), Tiffany, Kyland, Angela, Tucker, Caleb (S25), McCrae... I think that would be a fun season.

    He should have watched his first season before playing his second. It would have given him more insight on how to play his second and he may have won BB19.
    Armenians do have coverage but it’s the Kardashians unfortunately. They need more representation like Paul!

    Following Paul on social media I've noticed them posting a fair amount of stuff about both ADHD and Autism, and wonder if they have lived experience of these. People in the comments talking about Pauls demeanour during the interview might find it interesting to learn about neurodivergent communication styles and maybe will have a changed opinion on whether they were 'rude'.
    Thoroughly enjoyed this interview, thank you Sharon! You guided the conversation without stifling them from being themselves which was very skilled. Loved the blend of BB and social justice in this!
