Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Erika Jayne revealed her “greatest bamboozlement” on stages years before being dragged into her husband Tom Girardi’s embezzlement drama.

Recently, a clip of Jayne speaking at a 2018 Tedx conference in Pasadena. It’s unclear why she was invited but the title of her speech was “My Unapologetic Alter Ego: Living Life as an Exaggerated Figment of People's Imaginations,”

In the video, Jayne is heard telling the audience how she tricked Americans into believing she was her alter ego “Erika Jayne” and not Erika Girardi, which is her government name.

She explained, “I was cast in a reality TV show. Overnight, I took “Erika Jayne” from nightclubs into people’s living rooms, and they ate it up. Because TV land is really into like sparkly over-the-top characters and I was nailing it."
