Move over, Survivor and Big Brother. There’s a new mind game in town. Hulu’s psychological reality gauntlet, Got To Get Out, is already making waves, and at the center of the chaos is none other than the original queen of calculated chaos: Omarosa. In an exclusive, no-holds-barred sit-down with Where Is The Buzz’s Kori Nicole, the reality TV legend pulls back the velvet curtain on what went down behind the scenes.
From midnight escapes to million-dollar mind games, Omarosa is dishing it all. And trust: this isn’t your average reality recap.
The Call That Changed It All
“I always love when my agent calls with new and interesting shows,” Omarosa began, glowing with her signature poise. “This one hit different. I’m celebrating 20 years in reality television, and I wanted something fresh, something intense.”
She almost passed. Omarosa, now deep into law school, turned down several projects before her agent, Anthony, stepped in. “I said, ‘Listen, I’m in law school. I can’t do anything that will derail that.’ But Anthony worked his magic, and when I heard the pitch—$1 million, mental warfare, secret escapes? I was in.”
Inside the $45 Million Mansion: Housewives, Champagne, and Strategy
Forget the woods or the beach. Got To Get Out locked 20 contestants inside a $45 million Beverly Hills mansion, including a seasoned reality pro. “It was giving Clue meets The Purge meets Big Brother,” Kori quipped. Omarosa agreed. “I mean, I was rooming with Kim Zolciak and Cynthia Bailey. That should’ve been its damn show.”
“The master suite alone had enough tea to drown a franchise,” she teased, laughing. “We were living lavish, but don’t get it twisted. This wasn’t a vacation. Every room was bugged. Every moment was a trap.”
The Cast: Frenemies, Favorites, and That Breakout Star
Who stood out? “The Bachelor girls were everything,” Omarosa gushed. “Demi [Burnett] was sharp, hilarious. Susan [Noles]? Iconic. But there’s one name fans are gonna remember after this: Shane Dougherty.”
“He’s the sleeper star. You’ll see. That kid has heart, guts, and game.”
But don’t expect hugs and kumbaya. “It got tense. There were moments I had to remind myself not to go full Apprentice Omarosa. But then the money hit half a million, and baby, it was time to bring out the claws.”
Playing the Game: Mind Over Mayhem
When asked about her strategy, Omarosa didn’t hold back. “People expected me to come in guns blazing. Same way I did on Big Brother or The Apprentice. But I had to evolve. This show’s about deception, subtlety. I had to play chess, not checkers.”
She admitted to building real alliances, even when it felt risky. “The line between friend and foe was razor-thin. Trust no one. That was rule number one. Rule number two? Trust your gut. Always.”
School by Day, Strategy by Night
Yes, Omarosa filmed a reality show while attending law school full-time. Let that sink in.
“I was out of gameplay for four hours a day. Literally in class, on Zoom. I’d come back, and everything would’ve shifted. Alliances formed, betrayals happened, and clues were gone. I was playing catch-up the whole time.”
She wasn’t immune to the pressure. “I got my first B-minus because of this show,” she confessed, shaking her head. “And listen, that hurt. I’m used to A’s. But I made it work. I’m graduating next month, and I did Got To Get Out. Period.”
Kori, also graduating with her Master’s from USC, empathized. “We’re perfectionists. I get it.”
High Stakes, No Sleep
According to Omarosa, Got To Get Out was not for the faint of heart. “There was no downtime. None. Escapes happened at 3AM, 5PM, whenever. A siren would go off, a light would flicker. You’d have 30 seconds to move or you were screwed.”
“No one slept. You couldn’t. You were living in a haunted house version of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire.”
Would She Do It Again?
Without hesitation: “Hell yes.”
“I love reality TV. This is my arena. I’d do it again, smarter, sharper. But I wouldn’t change this experience for anything. It pushed me, broke me, then made me stronger. I grew.”
“I know fans will be shocked by the twists, the betrayals, and the moments they didn’t see,” she added. “Just watch. It’s the craziest show I’ve ever done and that’s saying something.”
What Sets Got To Get Out Apart
So what makes this show different?
“Control,” Omarosa said. “You think you have it. Then you realize the game is always ten steps ahead. You’re not just surviving. You’re second-guessing reality.”
Viewers have echoed this. Marie Claire says the show is “a hybrid of Clue, Big Brother, and Squid Game, with a sprinkle of Real Housewives.”
People Magazine also noted the show’s unpredictable nature, quoting contestant Spencer Pratt: “At one point, I sounded so paranoid Heidi thought I was hallucinating. But I wasn’t.” (People, 2025)
Final Word from the Queen of Reality
“I came, I slayed, I studied, and I survived,” Omarosa laughed. “What more do you want?”
Got To Get Out is now streaming exclusively on Hulu. With its twisted premise, celebrity cast, and the return of reality royalty, this show might just change the genre forever.
