You think Jerry from Cheer got ‘mat talk’!! I got that ‘carpet talk’!! @csiriano @cocorocha #loveher #allofthemodelswasbanging.”
In the video, Jones was seen hopping out of her seat various times out of excitement for designer Christian Siriano and the models wearing his designs. Jones was then heard screaming at Coco Rocha as she struts the runway, saying “Yasss, Coco! You know I love you, girl!” She additionally told Rocha to “work it” and show the world “how it’s done.”
