mystyle Q&A: Olivia Blois Sharpe
Tue., May. 3, 2011 4:00 PM PDT by Danielle Datu
The star of Jerseylicious (the new season premieres Sunday, May 15 @ 8/7c & 11/10c on Style) gave us the scoop on her personal style during NBCUniversal's press day at the Langham Huntington Hotel in Pasadena, Calif.
WHAT SHE'S STYLIN': I'm wearing a black leotard and gold high-wasted skirt from American Apparel. I have on Melody Ehsani jewelry—a big spiky bracelet and lightning bolt ring. I'm also wearing a big shoulder pad that I found online. I Google stuff that I dream about. Then, I find it and buy it. I do a lot of online Googling and shopping.
STATEMENT MAKER: I'm all about big fun, expressive pieces, like this shoulder pad. It has feathers and chains. Or like my cute little cheetah booties. I love having conversation pieces—something that's really fun and over-the-top and that's going to grab attention. Why not go big? If you're not going to go big, then just go home!
FASHION PHILOSOPHY: My style is very outgoing. I walk around here, and I probably look like a hooker to some people, but I love having fun. I like playing dress up every day. Plus, I'm a little bit of a goth. I love spikes and chains and darkness. So I'm really kind of a little goth at heart.
STYLE ICONS: I absolutely love Michael Jackson. I love Lady Gaga. I love Prince. I love a lot of the '80s style.
SPRING FEVER: I love the fact that spring isn't too hot so you can pretty much wear whatever you want. You can still wear some of the warmer things from the winter, but mix in some of the fun things that summer has. Spring is my favorite because the weather is so beautiful. You can get away with anything—it's like a mix of the seasons.
LASHES GALORE: A huge tip about mascara that not a lot of people know about is to apply it on the top of your lash first, then put apply it on normally underneath. Use the side of the tip of the brush to build and build and build. Then wait about five or 10 minutes, let it dry and then do it all again—and I guarantee you, you're definitely going to see some lash!
CONFESSIONS OF A SHOPAHOLIC: No matter how upset I am, if I go out and shop a little bit, it automatically makes me feel better. Why spend all that money on a therapist, you leave with nothing. Do retail therapy because you go home with something. But I'm the type of person who actually feels guilty when I spend too much money. I like to find good deals. It's all about accessorizing. The best accessory you can have is confidence. Once you have confidence, your outfit's going to look good!
Come back next Tuesday for New Jersey's other breakout star Tracy DiMarco's take on fashion and beauty. Then, be sure to catch the season premiere of Jerseylicious Sunday, May 15 @ 8/7c & 11/10c only on Style.

1. Tracy's nails look like she took medical tape and put it on her fingers!!!!! they just look awful, they are wide, and too long!
Dianne Fri, May 6, 2011, 6:56 AM
2. Olivia, I love you on this show. You are professional and have come a long way since the beginning of the show. I HATE DORIA AND TRACY THE TRAMP. I think you are getting a raw deal with having to share the spotlight with that fatass Doria. Tracy the tramp does nothing for you and I realize that you need some drama for the show, but if you stay away from "it" maybe "it * will go away and take that loser Lorenzo with her. Keep your head up and just do what you do best. You have fans here in Cape May Court House, New Jersey. Would love for you to come to North Wildwood and party sometime. My husband also thinks you are a cutie.

3. Olive, you are a hoot! You definitely make the show. That Daria drives me crazy, she is sooo annoying. I hope she isn't returning to the show. She is just NOT jerseylicious. I'm glad you continue to persue your dreams * you deserve it. You are as cute as can be. Keep up the good work!!!!

Rozee Fri, May 6, 2011, 4:19 PM
33. Just saw a clip from the reunion. Olivia the nerve of that jealous b to say your so fake. She's got it twisted! I have never seen or met anyone in my lifetime that is MORE FAKE THAT TRACY. The second you see her you know for a fact her HAIR, SKIN(its orange), NAILS, TEETH, EYE COLOR/LASHES, and she probably wears body girdles so Who in the **** is more FAKE THAN THAT, YOU TRA! Think about it O, she must take hours each and every day of her life to put on all that store bought fake **** to put herself together, and the real sad thing is she thinks she looks good-poor fake *** Tra, she wants to be you so bad. and be extra careful about the fat Doria, she's really jealous of you (just look at her) and we all know she's going to try and sabotage your job, same way Tra is always trying to do. They'll both work together now so be very careful because you can see how very jealous they both are of you and tell Gayle to wake the F up and watch how backstabbing Tra was to HER * YOU!!!
GAIL Fri, May 6, 2011, 9:03 PM
34. OLIVIA. THAT MONSTER TRACY SAID FROM THE BEGINNING, SHE ENJOYS BEING MEAN. SHE NEEDS A ***** SLAP FROM A BROOKLYN GIRL. KEEP YOUR HEAD UP, WITH YOUR STYLE, RESPECT AND HONESTY. THE TRUTH ALWAYS RISES TO THE TOP. U R A 1 IN MY BOOK. U GO GIRL
Lia Sun, May 8, 2011, 3:49 PM
35. I don't like you i think you a wimp and a fake
michellie Sun, May 8, 2011, 5:17 PM
36. Olivia you arent fake, like tracy and airheaded briella. You should stay away from the orangatang, you and gigi are my favorites, leave the drama behind though **
Samantha Sun, May 8, 2011, 6:35 PM
37. Olivia, you are so sweet and adorable!! I love your style and I definitely feel like people, especially Tracy, always attack you and it's not fair! I think too when Gayle hired Doria, that it was Doria who caused all the trouble and not you! Tracy is wrong for calling you a fake person, she is the fake person! You are genuinely sweet and I would LOVE to be friends with you!! I love animal print just like you...my room is now animal print and I am getting a Bengal Cat which looks like a little leopard!! You are awesome Olivia!! -Samantha
nacascia Sun, May 8, 2011, 6:36 PM
38. i love you olivia you the best honey love ya
MommyFrazzled Sun, May 8, 2011, 6:42 PM
39. Olivia is the better person. If you watch the seasons you see Tracey constantly would make snide remarks to Olivia out of earshot of everyone else. But, **** by the time the show aired all of them should have seen who was the instigator. Olivia even saved Tracey from getting fired. Tracey had the gall to be mad at Olivia but was dating her OLD boyfriend. Tracey is jealous because if she wasn't * it should be no problem working with someone you dislike. People all over the world work with people they don't really care for but you are respectful on the job. Olivia would do that because she doesn't go out of her way to make snide remarks. On the reunion Tracey is talking about everyone thinks Olivia is so nice and innocent which is the main reason Tracey is jealous she doesn't get the same. Tracey doesn't get it because she is guilty of backstabbing, sabotaging, trying to humiliate Olivia all the time. Tracey would gain respect if she concentrated on herself, period.
MommyFrazzled Sun, May 8, 2011, 6:58 PM
40. And I would love to know after they had a chance to see the footage of the shows, Gayle, Christy, and Anthony did not step in and acknowledge that indeed Tracey was the instigator. Tracey said she became friends with Brielle because if your going to work with someone why harp on other things and just be civil when working. Why then didn't she apply the same principle to working with Olivia? Actions speak louder than words. Tracey is more emotional because she is the one who cares too much what Olivia is doing, what Olivia may be getting, who likes Olivia, etc. If she really didn't care then put your money where your mouth is and show you can work with Olivia on the job, being civil and at the end of the day, go home and do your thing. You do not need to know what Olivia is doing and if you cross paths nod or no nod but leave her alone if she is not your friend.
VI Islandgirl Sun, May 8, 2011, 7:15 PM
41. So I was watching the reunion show and Tracey was complaining about how Olivia always makes herself look like a victim on the show and will cry and act like a baby, but Tracey was the one who was throwing a fit and crying, throwing things and stomping around pouting. Really? She also made the comment that she knows someone Olivia can talk to about Bipolar disorder and we can all see why, she is a classic case! Hey Doc time for a med change! Tracey is such a pretty girl but her behavior makes her so ugly on the show. Honey (Tracey) your looks can only get you so far your behavior and actions are so disrespectful and disgusting! You can still change and grow into a respectable person. Everyone loves a happy ending. Olivia keep your head up girl. You are you and America has embraced you for that and I think that is why Tracey gets so angry all the time because everyone in America see's her behavior and is calling her on it and now she can't deal with it. Do your thing girl!
busymomma Sun, May 8, 2011, 7:43 PM
42. olivia continue on what your doing and let the hater's (Tracey) hate, your are so porfessional in what you do as a makeup artist and people don't like it when you look better then they do. stay your cute dainty self and let the elephant (Tracey) fumble with everything she not
Jersey madness Sun, May 8, 2011, 7:45 PM
43. Tracy should really and truly get a grip. You spit in Olivia's face. How low can you go? You stepped across the line Baby girl when you stooped that low. Give Olivia a break, stop hating on her. She's s-p-e-c--i-a-l. She's got class. You are going to bust a blood vessel over Olivia and they are going to carry you away. Stop the madness NOW!
Alicia Q. Sun, May 8, 2011, 8:10 PM
44. Olivia, i love you on the show. I can honestly admit I didn't really like Tracy, but tonight watching the Wild and Untamed interview show I have to admit that Tracy showed a softer side to her. I think the hate between you guys is absurd and I don't really understand why you cant show some sympathy towards her considering all the hate mail she must get because of this show, although I'm not saying I agree with the things she has done to you but i think its a little insensitive of you to not stand up for her when you hear about the hate mail. I understand you seriously dislike her but would it be so bad to just say on camera that you don't support people wishing her harm?
Mama T Sun, May 8, 2011, 8:13 PM
45. I really love this show. I have been watching it from the beginning. I must say I didn't like Tracy then and I don't like Tracy now. She is just a big ole bully. I saw the reunion show and she is crazy. Olivia should take self defense classed for herself so she can defend herself against Tracy. Tracy pushes her around just because she is small. Tracy tries to blame everything on Olivia. Tracy should stop being jealous of Olivia and go on with her life. The rest of the cast if great. Also tell Ms. Glam Fairy try being a little bit nicer to people. Don't be a ***** all the time. Tracy is a big enough ***** on the show. Well I hope the show keeps on the air with Olivia finding that true love and Tracy getting what she deserves. Keep hope alive. Just love the show..Right up there with Atlanta Housewives.
J.J. Sun, May 8, 2011, 8:22 PM
46. Tonight was so painful for me to watch as Tracy, once again, accuses Olivia of everything she herself is guilty of. The actual reality is that Tracy is always projecting onto Olivia what she really feels about herself. She is completely obsessed with Olivia and her actual existence. Look at the difference between the two. Tracy always finds pleasure in her accomplishments made out of negativity. You'd have to be blind and stupid not to see that she loved being able to get Brielle out of Olivia's life. Brielle also showed what a bad and disloyal friend she was. That's like your best friend talking to the person that lied about you and got you kicked out of school for example. Anyone would of felt like Olivia if their BFF treated them that way. Olivia, on the other hand, only reacts when she is attacked and otherwise, is a very happy go-lucky person. Tracy is miserable, negative, insecure, toxic, and most of all extremely jealous. Tracy doesn't need a therapist, she needs God.

47. watching the reunion tracy get over yourself we think what you are bad cuz you show that you are gayle how does it feel to get backstabbed by tracy working boyh sides shes the one that was telling alexia everything stupid just like tracy
Kellie Sun, May 8, 2011, 10:14 PM
48. I agree that Tracy is jealous of Olivia. She is always the instigator. And omg, the comment she made about Briella and having to get along with her and be mature enough to put their problems aside so they could work together........duh. Thats exactly what she needs to do with Olivia but she's so freakin jealous of her that she can't. Gayle, what you did to Olivia by giving her the job of head make up artist and then taking it away when Doria came along was unforgivable and backstabbing. Do you choose not to see the way Tracy and Doria do Olivia. Open your eyes!!!!!! Olivia hang in there. They are just jealous because you are small, cute, beautiful and everything they're not. Tracy also has no right to say something about you dating one of her ex's when she has done the same to you. Oh and btw, Lorenzo is a slime ball for what he said. No gentlemen would say such a thing. It just goes to show his immaturity and what a doorknob he is. Gigi....love you too. Alexa--get over yourself!!
somesaybb Sun, May 8, 2011, 10:18 PM
49. Tracey, you really need psychological help. All you had shown is your bad attitude from the beginning, your "I don't care" words and that explosion out of your frustrations talks a lot about your personality. On the other side, Olivia showed much better attitude, the more you're trying to put Olivia down,the worst you are looking..and yes Briella, is your best trophy against Olivia.
stephanie Mon, May 9, 2011, 1:47 AM
50. I watched the reunion tonight and I cant believe how tracy acted! Olivia doesnt play the victim, she is Traceys victim! Gayle doesnt see how Doria and Tracey are causing trouble, maybe she needs to retire and let Christy run Gatsby. Briella ended a long friendship, whats up with Briellas top lip? I cant believe Tracey woulod say she cant wait for Olivia to get hate mail! who is bipolar???
