Just as in season two, she’s continuing to gather talented individuals. This time around, she forged a close bond with Method Man from the Wu-Tang Clan.

Natasha shared a surprising revelation with Will Marfuggi and Erin Lim Rhodes during the TopMob @ Poker Face Season Two Premiere livestream event in Los Angeles on May 1st, stating, “It seems we might be one and the same individual.” She explained that they have a strong connection and shared numerous moments of laughter.
