VH1access Interview: Ashley Douglas (Tool Academy/Work It Out)



I recently did an interview with Tool Academy season 1 winner Ashley Douglas. We discussed about her experience being on the show, what she thought about the other two seasons and we also discussed her new upcoming show with Josh called. Work It Out

here is the interview.




VH1access: Hello Ashley, thanks for doing this interview with me. How is Josh doing?

Ashley: Josh is doing really good, he’s been doing a lot of work for the upcoming show, “Work it Out,” and working another job full time so he’s pretty busy.



VH1access: Ok so let's talk about Tool Academy first, I know it's been a year since you have been on the show. How was your experience being on that show?

Ashley: Well, To be Honest, that show was the best experience I've ever had in my life, and will not have the same feelings going into another show, because it was new. It was very crazy being on this show with all different cameras in my face, we never knew what to expect. They never told us a thing, so we were in the dark a lot. For example when we sat in therapy, that’s when we learned what the lesson was. Despite all of this, doing this show was amazing. Josh and I really learned a lot about one another. I think a lot of people think " TOOL ACADEMY" saved us, and while it helped us a lot ,and taught us to grow, Tool academy single handely didn’t save us. We were in the right time at the right place and grew up, and we are thankful.



VH1access: Who did you like and dislike on the show?

Ashley: Well, I was really upset at how two faced and fake half of the people were on the show. There were people talking bad about one another than acting like friends the next and  a lot of behind the back talks. I really felt like many people were there for the wrong reasons and definitely didn’t take a thing from the show, especially Ryan and Shawn. ALL they really did was inflate there over the top ego's.



VH1access: What are thoughts on Jamiee dating Tiger Woods? Do you think she is trying to gain fame from it?

Ashley: Ok, so I’m not going hold back here. Jamie came off real trashy. She probably did this to be famous, Why go to the media? why handle it through the public? He has kids and a wife who didn’t ask for that. Don’t get me wrong what tiger woods did was terrible, but his wife and kids should have not have to go through that. Karma is a bitch, maybe that’s why she got arrested.



VH1access: Did you received your money after you won?

Ashley: Yes we got money for winning the show. A lot of people thought we got One Hundred Million dollars, I wish. Sadly we only got One Hundred Thousand Dollars and paid nearly half of that in taxes.




VH1access: Have you seen season 2 and 3 of Tool Academy? if so what are your thoughts on those seasons?

Ashley: Um ,The second season of Tool academy was terrible, and clearly the ratings showed that ,because they removed all sense of reality from the show. The first season was new and original idea based on many real couples. I feel like it the third season bombed miserably.( they didn’t even have a reunion) On the Third season, I liked Rachel and Kevin, and his girl should have won, hands down.



VH1access: What are your thoughts of the season 2 Tool Academy guys being featured on that porn site a while back?

Ashley: I'M ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTED BY THEIR ACTIONS. THERE IS A TON OF WAYS TO MAKE MONEY.JERKING OFF ON CAMERA OR ON YOUR FRIEND (LIKE MATSUFLEX AND SHAWN) ISN'T ONE OF THEM.IF THE TWO OF THEM DID THAT FOR 25 GRAND (via DIRTY.COM) WHAT THE HELL WOULD THEY DO FOR MORE? Nothing against porn, but what they did was a little trashy.



VH1access: Ok so now let's talk about your new show called "Work it Out" I have heard a lot about this show. What is this show about?

Ashley: What really makes this show stand out in my opinion, is the multiple personalities (and celebrities) involved in the show as counselors, that move into the subjects home, who receive constant feedback and direction from both Josh and myself. With Work It Out, we wanted to take what we learned on Tool Academy and help people that had the same issues. It doesn't matter if you’re a couple in trouble or a family in turmoil. If you need help we are going to fix it.



VH1access: Is this show close to being picked up by a network?

Ashley: We are currently shooting the pilot episodes, featuring a surprise guest from the Wu Tang Clan. This is our main focus right now. I would love to have this show picked up by a network once we have released the pilot episodes.



VH1access: Do you have any idea when us fans will see this show?

Ashley: Shortly. When the pilot episodes are released you will be able to watch them on WorkItOutShow.com


VH1access: Will there be any guest appearances from other Tool Academy cast members?

Ashley: We have a few offers on the table.



VH1access: Well Ashley good luck with the show and thank you again for doing this interview with me, do you want to give a shout out to anyone?

Ashley: No, Thank you! It’s people like you who we appreciate. All the fans are friends to josh and I. We have met such nice people through this. Their support is amazing and it’s been great. So, THANK YOU VH1 ACCESS!
And a shout out to the hubby <333, all our amazing friends who support us through facebook, myspace and twitter. <3 xo And our mangers (Tony Money and Sebastian Wynters). I think we got really lucky. They are so smart and this wouldn’t have been possible without them. They play a huge part.

I'm with Ashley on the Tiger Woods scandal. What he did was wrong. But I especially can't stand the women he slept with, they look like $5 hookers. Hes got a beautiful wife and kids, and he gives that up for the other women?

I also don't think that the women he slept with should be crying because they didn't get recognition or a personal apology. Suck it up! You are the other woman, don't cry like your the victim. The real victim's are the ones who had no control over what happened, which happen to be Tigers Wife, kids and family. So shut the fuck up, get over yourselves and stop milking the fame like the desprate bitch you are.

It's too bad Ashley herself Is too naive to realize her own husband is making out with chicks at the bar.

Tony Money said...

To the person above. You have proof? If not, why are you trying to start ish?

Even if I had proof she wouldn't believe it. But She doesn't deserve to be lied to. If it was me, I'd want to know.

I'm not the one who he cheated with, but he did cheat, I do know what I'm talking about. Just like Ashley is pregnant. And that's out of the mouth of Josh. Ashley is a gullable idiot and deserves to be cheated on, cause she's fucking stupid to think Josh is faithful. But she won't leave him, she is too weak, and if he left ,she would kill herself. Fuck you <3
